"We ought to make the run down here in about half the time it takes now. You see the stations are about SO feet apart and the train doesn't miss stopping at a single one." "I guess this road must be about aa 'bad as what is known as the Grasshopper branch of the D., T. & I. road, that runs through Greene County, Ohio, where I came from," remarked the friend. "It is an actual fact that during hunting season the engineer and the rest of the crew carry shotguns and if the train scares up a rabbit the engineer slows up until they can get a shot at it. I heard they once actually stopped the train long enough to hive a lot of bees that somebody saw in a tree." "By the way," asked Ade, "what is the name of the D., T. & I. road? I've often seen the initials folders." in guides ,and "The Detroit, Toledo and Ironton." "Oh, yes. Not knowing the right name I always called it the Delirium Tremens and Insomnia."

NOT A HOODLUM. A small boy is not a hoodlum. Yesterday this paper suggested that the small boy and Ms sister be given a real Fourth of July, without danger. That has nothing to do with the half-baked individual whose idea of having "a time" on the Fourth is to see what he can do to frighten horses and to insult women i on the street. He is another proposition. The small boy may have animal spirits to work off. But, on the whole, he is a jolly little fellow who doesn't do much damage. That glorious time in which he is misunderstood and is partly an outlaw from society is the remnant of intensely vital growth of the human race. Do not confuse him with the half man who congregates on the street after nightfall and who would be somewhere else if he had the chance. To him a runaway is a ludicrous affair. His delight is to place explosives under street cars. His prey are the helpless and the weak. Women and children are contemptible to his majesty. As a rule his fervor, his daring before the rest of the, gang, and his Devilish invention is stimulated by "laying in a supply" the day before. There is no use passing a special ordinance for him a few arrests will clear out the whole cowardly lot.

The small boy is of better stuff.

CARRYING THEM OUT. Cannon. Aldrich. Crane. "The constituted leaders" were called into confer with the President. The time is growing apace and still there has been no action toward passing the measures of the administration. Mr. Taft has had explicit confidence in the ability of the "leaders" to carry out his wishes. Their ability is unquestioned perhaps Mr. Taft's confidence is misplaced. Mr. Aldrich gave out the following statement to the press in regard to this conference: "We are just smoothing out the tangles and devising ways and means for having passed the measures the President insists on." Is it not a coincidence that Senator Aldrich has set the date of the adjournment of congress for May lO and that Mr. Cannon announces that if the usual time of debate is consumed on the appropriation measures it will take up all that time? The appropriation bills have always been good space fillers, and none knows their use better than Cannon. In reward for his revision of the tariff Mr. Taft defended Mr. Aldrich at Boston and Winona. But Mr. Taft lacks just two days of having been president a year. And the administration measures are being carried out.

DIRECT PRIMARIES. I.i one congressional district in Indiana three candidates for congreess are urging the republican chairman to hold a direct primary. They say: "We believe that the nearer the Republican party can get to the people, the better It will be for them in the approaching campaign, and the further away from machines and organizations the Republican party steers its course, the better it will be for it." Lay aside any politics that may or may not be behind the letter in question in this particular case. The sign is encouraging on its face. The fewer steps, there are between the people and their representatives in congrss or any other place, the better. It is much less dangerous to the health of the party to allow the men in the ranks to decide.

SUNFLOWER PHILISOPHY. (Atchison, Kan., Globe.) Every lawyer tries to be more or less like Abe Lincoln. Some men have so much enthusiasm they haven't time for anything else. We ; :dmire the man who wins particularly if he leaves it meda, home. A boy seldom follows the career mapped out for him by the school teachers. Men are selfish. They would rather be late to dinner than to have to wait for it. Which, by the way, constitutes the Best Families in a town meat three times a day, or false hair? The men can at least point with pride to the fact that no magazine de voted to their fashions has a million ciculation. The sight of a frightful-looking woman wearing an old wrapper sitting in a kitchen chair in the back yard, while her hair hangs in dripping strings about her face, has passed. Women no longer wash their hair that way, but every once in a while a strange looking washing appears on the clothes line.

Constitution island is in the Hudson river opposite West Point. The island comprises 300 acres densely wooded. During the Revolution it formed part of the defenses of the 77-idson river. Upon it are the remains of ten breastworks. These were completed by Kosciusko. Washington's life guard was mustered out on this island in 17S3. Miss Anna Bartlett Warner, its owner, and Mrs. Russell Sage in 1903 made a gift of the island to the government of the United States, and It is now a part of the military reservation.

SOUNDS REAL NOTE

Rev. Cope Tells What the Religious Work of Universities Is. IS EXPRESSED IN LIFE Madison, Wis., March 2. "The uni versity is as truly religious in the twentieth century as it was in the sixteenth or the eighteenth. The fortunate thing is that instead of seek ing to express that religious spirit in terms of the sixteenth century, instead" of elaborately preserving arch aic forms of language, the universities are content to express their religion in terms of life." This was the significant declaration of the Rev. Henry F. Cope, general secretary of the Religious Education association in an address on "Newer Ideals of Religious Education in Uni versities," before the third annual conference to church workers in state universities in session at the University of Wisconsin. "One striking characteristic of American university life is its keenness in contemporary living," continued the speaker. "No matter how proud such an institution may be of the imported ivy on its walls, mediaeval turrets can not hide the modern spirit; it seems itself as a servant of the present times, as first of all concerned with men as they are, with the problems of the city, with sanitation, with social living." Fatal Course. A matron was visiting her former home city and was under full headway with the seemingly endless string of questions usual in such a case. "And your sister's daughter. Violet?" she asked. "Violet is married," the friend replied. "Indeed! My! How time does fly! Happily married, I trust?" "Oh. dear, no! My sister always humored her, you know," was the response, "and the poor child was permitted to marry the man she was in love with." Detroit Free Tress.
