Doctor Butler is at the present time president ot Columbia TJniver sity, anr» he is giving utterance to some remarkable interviews which »are in the nature ot prophesies as ?v to what -will .happen in Europe In the n°a' future. The writer has personally* discussed world wide conditions' with this 11 lustrious scholar and diplomat, and t: personally knows that he is an ul .tra consprvative. With all his learning and experience he is, or rather hap been, continually looking backward. Wilson and Bryan tried without success to have him turn •:s around and face the future and use his great abilities in helping to solve its problems. :'V'v\ Probably iio man in this country is as closely in touch with the etates men and rulers of Europe as Dr. But ler. In a recent: newspaper inter view he said, that lie had received .- long lettera trom Lord Haldane, Lord Morley, Lord Weardale, Lord Bryce, Professor Schlemann of Ber lin, who is one of the emperor's most intimate advisors, Professor Lam asch of Austria, who is a member of the Austrian house of peers, M. Ro bot.f minister: of finance for France, and M. d'Estournelles de Constant Here is one of the Doctor's strik ing statements: "The cataclysm is so awful that it is quite within the bounds of truth to say that on July 31 the curtain went down upon a world which nev er will be seen again.'' •7 But perhaps the most significant conclusion reached by this dis tinguished scholar, who is so close to the confidential ministers of Europe, is this: ''If our fathers had attempted to .organize this country upon the basis of a single, closely unified state it would have gone to smash almost tat the outset, wrecked by clashing economic -and personal interests. In deed, this nearly happened in the civil war, which was more economic than political in its origin. "But, though we had our difficul ties, we did find a way to make- a unified nation of a hundred million people and forty-eight common wealths, all boun'd together in--unity and loyalty to a common political purpose. "Just as certainly as We sit here this must and will be the future of Europe. There will be a federation into the United States of Europe.'' TURKEY AND THE WAR. Turkey is the tenth nation in the great war—with Portugal, the eleven th. Her act widens the vast field of desolation, and if Germany is de feated it will mean the last pi the Ottoman Empire in Europe, and per haps the complete extinguishment of that empire. In the order named, Greece, Rou mania, Italy and Bulgaria are invit «d .to the fray by Turkey. Greece A has a cause of war in Albania, in the disputed Aegean Islands, it the Asia Minor outrages upon Greeks. si Roumania, the richest and strongest h* Balkan state, may at Russia's invi tation invade Roumanian-speaking Transylvania. Italy, --which hap held some islands in pawn because Turk ish officers aided the Tripoli tribe af ter peace was signed-, cannot endure a Turkish reoccupation of Egypt— part of the bait held out to Turkey by Berlin. Turkey's action, therefore, may strain to the breaking point the meutral purpose of the Roman Cabi net. Without a fleet that can come out of Dardanelles, Turkey cannot attack Greece or Roumania except across Burgaria. It is commonly thought that Bulgaria must aid Turkey against Servia an? Greece. But Balkan states men are practical men Bulgaria is quite capable of postponing her re venge upon her neighbors if convinc ed that bigger scraps of broken meat will fall from the table of the al lies. The Balkan alliance might be reformed the allies have left no ef fort in that direction untried. If Aus tria-Hungary can be overrun, the new readjustment that would be pos sible might be enough to induce Ser via and Roumania to give back the territory they, took from Bulgaria in the second Balkan war. Even If Bulgaria sides with Turk ey, the land forces on the German side would only cancel out .against Italy and Roumania. If Bulgaria, goes with the allies, the balance of added strength will be heavily the other way and may endanger the very ex istence of Austria-Hungary as a great power. Why, then, has Germany enticed her ally into the war? No answer is possible except that the plump and amiable Mohammed V. is commander of the Faithful. Hard beset on both her frontiers, Ger many in her desperation urges a Moslem holy war in the East, and especially In Egypt and India. She may be disappointed. With Boers in the British eause putting down a Boer rebellion with Irish National ists by thousands on the Belgian -Bide with Catholics figthing Cath olics, and Greek Churchmen fighting IGreek churchmen with Slavs fighting Slavs, and East Indians in JYance aid ing the conquerors of India, whose physical touch would- profane their very food, this war reveals race and religion as slender reeds to lean up on, compared with the habit of na— tionality and the power of discipline One thing is pure. No nation except Servia risks 1q the war so much as the Turk, and the Turk risks it with out excuse. Whatever happens there will still be a France, an England, a Germany, a Russia. It is not certain now that there will be a Turkey New York .World. ROOSEVELT'S NIGHTMARE. Theodore Roosevelt hap taken ex treme measures to restore himself to first page, top of the column, read ing matter, from which position he had been rudely shaken by the hurly burly of war news and of election forecasts of which he is becoming less a factor. Roosevelt told his audience at Princeton" that he had seen plans that were made by "two nations now at war"' to seize New York City and San Francisco and demand a huge ransom from the United States. It would be interesting to know when, where and under what condi tions Roosevelt was allowed this inspection. He proclaimed his belief that such a thing could be done, as serts that he saw the plans, knew the hostile act was on foot against the United States and failed to make known then as lie refuse? to make known now the countries guilty of the plot. There are but four countries engag ed in war. that could, even if hostil ities existed, have the most remote hope of carrying such a campaign to a successful conclusion. They are Great Britain, Germany, Japan and France. Roosevelt has been guiltjr 0f the grave impropriety of accusing some two of these and has taken the action apparently with the 'deliberate intention of embarrassing President Wilson in his work for honest-mind ed, clean-handed neutrality. Few people will believe that Roos evelt ever saw 'such Plans. I£ any chance they had been considered no war office is so loose in its methods as to allow the knowledge to get beyond the responsible heads. As a sheer invention, totally un worthy of an American who has been highly honored by his fellow citizens, the utterance stamps Roosevelt as the most reckless and unreliable in dividual prominently before the pub lic. Whatever his motive may have been, except to achieve notoriety, it would not be strange if the embas sies of the great powers at Wash ington should issue individual and collective denials and demand of Roosevelt that he make proper apol ogy or produce the proo^f of his wild ly sensational assertion Cedar Rapids Gazette. OUR FOREIGN TRADE BOOMING/. The men who went about, the coun try croaking about our foreign com merce under the new tariff will soon have reason to go away back and hide themselves. With the trade of Germany and Austria almost entirely cut off, American exports for the last week-in October were the great est since March. Compared with last year, the total was up $9,000,000. Some starUfcig items are shown in a review of a 'onger period. Wheat exports for three months ending Sep tember 30 were the largest on record. In September we sent 2,500,000 bush els to Canada and the exports of refined sugar were thirteen times as great as last year, of cojrn twice as great, of oats thirty-four times, of rice seven times. Cotton exports will soon be almost normal, going even to Germany by way of Italy. PRESIDENT WILSON'S MESSAGE. '1 have but one message to con vey to 'New York. It is -this: An American citizen should never vote ag a, sectarian, but ialways as an American citizen. Say this for me.' WOODROW WILSON. PERHAPS! When cows fall ill the government proceeds to take alarm And sends a veterinarian to sanitate the farm.. The cow herself Is put to bed and' plied with drugs and pills, Arid Unci© Sam comes forward, when she's cured, to pay the bills. But when a baby falls in need of medicine and care The government contends that that is none of its affair. When pigs and lambs are threatened by a deadly pestilence Their tender lives are guarded at the government's expense. They're coddled, nursed and dieted until they're well and fat, And never reckon of the cost—for Uncle Sam pays that. But when an epidemic marks the busies for its own, The government, untroubled lets them fight it out alone. Some day, perhaps, when all the pork has lavishly been passed, When every scrap of patronage is handed out at last. When all our nobld congressmen have got all they desire, And have attained whatever heights to which thy may aspire— To unknown heights of common sense the government will leap. And do as much for mothers as it does for cows and sheep. —Chicago Examiner. Where Brier Pipes Are Made. The brier-pipe industry of France is, for all practical purposes, centered in the little town of St. Claude, in the department of Jura, where not only pipes, but cigarette and cigar holders and other kindred necessities of the smoking world are manufactured. The sources of supply from which the brier roots are obtainable are, in order of Importance, Sicily, Calabria, Cor sica and Algeria. Why She Stopped Talking. A very talkative little girl, who had been chattering away like a magpie all morning, suddenly became silent when a lady, dressed in the extreme of the fashion, called on her mother. Wishing to amiable, the visitor said to the chatterbox: "Have you lost your tongue-, my dear?" "Oh, no, ma'am," was the reply "only my breath." Wearing Sunday Clothes. "Some men," said Uncle Eben, "don't wear deir Sunday clothes "often enough to keep fum lookin' funny when dey sets dressed up." 1 A GOOD PLAN ECONOMY IN NEW PROCESS Small Brass Pieces Are Now Com pressed in Steel Moiety Instead of by Old Method. In some of the modern European electric construction works, molding machines turn out millions of small brass pieces such as the industry re quires Compression of brass pieces in steel molds has now supplanted the old method of casting, for turning out such pieces in brass or bronze. For merly a sand mold had to be made for each piece, but now a single steel mold serves for thousands of pieces. In this process are used brass bars whose sec tion is chosen after experience so as to be best adapted fer shape and size of the finished piece, then a section Is cut off the bar to length, and the piece is heated to redness in a furnace, theil molded at high pressure in the steel mold. A pressure of a few seconds is enough to produce the required shape, and it is found that pressure makes the brass more compact and solid. As the steel mold can be made exact to a small fraction of an inch, the products have very close sizes for use. Even pieces which formerly were cast in bronze, such as shaft bearings, are now made by the molding process.— Scientific American. Audiences With Sovereigns.

Persons of all classes—ranging from a peasant wronged by his landlord to a highly placed official who had been unjustly passed over for promotion— might he seen standing together in the audience chamber, and to each aiyl all the jfemperor endeavored to do justice. Ireland's Stirring Song. The origin of the unofficial anthem of Ireland, "St. Patrick's Day'in the Morning," is most obscure. The ear liest known copy appears in Ruther ford's "Country Dances,'' published in 1749, but it is said to have been played by the Irish pipers at the battle of Fontenoy in 1745, and was probably current for some time before this. The tune is found attached to various rol licking old English songs. The Cum berland song of faithless Barbery ,Bell, whose lover vows to wear a red coat for her sake, is sung to aversion of "St. Patrick's Day," the words "Bar bary Bell's my darling" being substi tuted in the chorus for "Patrick's day in the morning." They Were Connoisteurs. Many years ago, on our return from a wedding, we found the house rifled. Mother had put out furs, her wedding gown, and other things to air before storing them. These were gone the solid silver also, and the plate broken. The burglars had ransacked the ice box and fixed themselves an elaborate spread. Upon the table was an empt? cigar box, and in it on a strip of pa per was scrawled: "The grub wss fine, but. Fatty, your cigars are rot ten. Do better next time." As my father was a corpulent man, they evidently knew their unwilling host.—Chicago Tribune. Napoleon's Pen-Wiper. According to the biographers of Napoleon, his breeches were always of white cashmere. It often happened that two hours after leaving his cham ber the breeches were spotted with ink by reason of the Corsican's habit of wiping his pen on them and of' shak ing ink all around him. It was a favor ite trick of his to strike his pen against the edge of a table and, of course, the breeches suffered. Furthermore, it appears that, how ever the great man dressed in the morning, that was his dress for the whole (lav, since he would not change his toilet until nightfall. The inside of his boots was lined with white fus tian. Baccarat. Baccarat, the little town in the de partment of Meurthe and arrondisse ment of Luneville, France, has appar ently no connection with "Baccarat, Bad Luck and Bankruptcy," though it is not clear how it acquired its name. The card game, it is said, was im ported into France by the soldiers of CharleB VIII from Italy, where it was called Baccara. Ouida uses this spell ing in "Wanda" when she says: "You may not steal, you may beggar your neighbor at Baccara." Same as an Ostrich. Many a man is like an ostrich.

In ly blind. of a hardware store ia Hoi 4 HAD ENOUGH OF NEW YORK Dressmaker From Indiana Formed Mighty Poor Opinion of the Great Metropolis. She was a middle aged person from the rural districts and evidenced health in her appearance and perfect digestion in her breakfast, which con sisted 'of ham and eggs with catchup on them. The catchup made even the waitress wince. Her trouble was en tirely of the mind, but it was acute. "What I want to know," she said to the waitress, according to a New York correspondent of the Cincinnati Times Star, "is how- ^here's so many people In New York when most of 'em, so fur as I see, could git away if they wanted to.' I come here to see th' fashions, actin' on the advice of friends, though I run a dressmakin' establishment 20 years in Vevay, Indianny, without never comin' to New York an' ain't never comin' again. If I ever took back th' fashions I seen here to Vevay, I'd lose every customer I've got an' probably git put out o* the church. New York ain't nothhi' but a regular swindle anyway, from end to end an' from before breakfast to lockin' up time. I was supposed to git a quiet room in a' convenient neighborhood. When'I got there it was over a shootin' gallery, an' th' things that neighbor hood was convenient fur ain't nothin' for you an' me to speak of.. I moved quick an' they wouldn't give me back the deposit I sent when I wrote to en gage th' room. But I ain't gona under take to tell ye about all th' little things like that that happened to me. That's New York. But I want to tell ye one thing: When I git back to Vevay— and I'm a-goin' today—I'm gona put a sign right in my winder that people that want New York fashions kin go to New York an' git 'em. Vevay's good enough for me." BAD EFFECT OF SMOKY AIR Neither Animals. Nor Vegetation Flour ish In the Vicinity of Largs Manufacturing Plants. Whether live stock is likely to suf fer when living in the neighborhood of' railroad yards, industrial platots and large manufacturing centers, was the question that the Leeds (Eng.) university proposed to Yorkshire farmers, and the answers showed the affirmative not only for animals but also as concerns grass and other plants. It appears that the growth of young stock is kept back under such conditions, and in the case of old stock or horses these are seen to require much more care and food than those which live in a pure air. Such effects on animals are due partly to the direct action of the vitiated air when taken into the lungs and on the other hand by the very poor quality of grass that grows here, as it cannot develop un der good conditions. Sheep raising is found to be specially difficult in these places, even impossible. Near Leeds, this had to be discontinued, for the wool was of very poor quality, besides being full of impurities of various kinds. Thus it appears that the same general rules apply to animals as to human beings under such circum stances.—Scientific American. Japan's Paper Underclothing. The Japanese are now making un derclothing of finely crisped or grained paper, the New York Weekly states. After the paper has been cut to a pattern, the different parts are sewn together and hemmed, and the places where the buttonholes are to be formed are strengthened with calico or linen. The paper is very strong and at the same time very flexible. After a garment has been worn a few hours it will interfere with the per spiration of the body no more than do garments made of cotton fabric. The paper is not sized, nor is it im permeable. After becoming wet the paper is difficult to tear. When an en deavor Is made to tear it by hand it presents almost as much resistance as the thick skin used for making gloves. Fault In Education. One regrettable fact about the ad vanced education of many young per sons is that they have been alienated from the'r homes and families and the "old-fashined" ways of 'the latter. The tragedy of this gulf which school and college have created between students and their parents is known only to the mothers and fathers who have endured It. Usually, also, the explanation is that the children have not won to even the beginnings of wisdom, else they would value the real worth of the parents whose greatness of loyalty and service and sacrifice is beyond the power of the schools to bestow. Any education which makes a boy ashamed of his mother and father is a bad edu cation. Relic of Lincoln.

A furnace is an ingenious and fiend ish device used for heating purposes. It is an asbestos-covered boiler en tirely surrounded by pipes, and situ ated in the darkest corner of the cel lar. The idea of the man who puts it in seems to be that a convenient light in the vicinity of a furnace would be detrimental to his interests, says the Detroit Free Press. In that we be lieve he is right Further a furnace Is a device that has a hog's fondness for dirt and a health crank's mania for cleanliness. It won't heat if it is dirty, and it woa't help to keep Itself clean. Consequently the poor brute known as husband of the home must be attend ant, masseur and rubber, to the fur nace as well. And these duties he must perform regularly in the dark or aided merely by the faint glow of an eight-candle power lamp that has only one candle power left. To clean a fur nace a man must divest himself of all raiment that he ever expects to wear above ground. Then with an iron brush he must attack the innermost vitals of the apparatus groping hither and thither, now bumping his head on the steel upper Jaw of the open month, now scraping his knuckles on the lower jaw.- Suddenly he is in the dark! The light has gone out! No, it is merely a cloud of dust that he failed to inhale quick enough to prevent its obliterating the eight-candle power lamp altogether. At last with the dust in his lungs, hair, eyes, ears, nose and vest pockets he staggers upstairs, only to have the partner of his joyp and sorrows exclaim: "It seems to me you could clean that furnace with out scattering dirt all through the house." EASY TO TELL REAL GENIUS Man With Capacity for Infinite Toil Is the One So Gloriously Endowed. Genius is always nine parts gift of God. A gifted person may learn something at school, but he becomes great, as Ruskin says, only when he develops that peculiar capacity within himself which he can learn from no body. How is one to know whether he is a "genius or not, whether those strivings within him are the ferment of medi ocrity or the first push of superler talent? The woods are full of young people who think they can write stories or poems, or paint, or sing, or perform upon musical instruments, or act.,, How are they to know if they be real natural-born geniuses? Perhaps the best test is this. A real genius usually has such a passion for his work that no power on earth can keep him from it. In other words, Carlyle's dictum holds true, that gen ius is the capacity for Infinite toil. If you area God-endowed one, therefore, you will know it by your unconquer able joy and courage. If-you are a second-rater you will give up, and be easily turned away into money-mak ing. Evolution In Professions. George II in 1745 spilled the beaps for the surgery-fcarbery corporation. Several obnoxious Individuals who had been doing surgical operations in competition with the barbers did some new stunts with the surgeon's knife and got George's ear. They knocked the barbers' work, said their opera tions for the removal of corns were crude stuff, and that George ought to get hep to himself and start a new profession of surgery in distinction to barbery.' George fell for it and dis solved the combination. The surgeons got it back on them for being so fresh not so many years afterward, when fellows calling themselves chir opodists sprang into existence and declared that no man should have his corns removed by anybody except ex perts at the business. Wisdom From Thomas. The thoughtful look on young Thom as' face betrayed that he had a few questions to ask. As soon as Mrs. Boardman had gone, he asked them. "Mother," said he, "do you like to kiss Mrs. Boardman?" "No, dear." "Do you think Mrs. Boardman likes to kiss you?" "I don't think she does." "Then why do you and she always kiss when you meet?" "I don't know, dear." "Don't you think Mrs. Boardman would rather you didn't kiss her?" "I have no doubt of it." "Wouldn't you rather Mrs. Board man didn't kiss you?" "Oh, very much rather." "Then," said young Thomas, con clusively, "that must be why." Flowering Plants Above 8now-L!ne. Investigations by.Herr von Klebels berg in the Tyrolese Alps have re vealed the existence in that region of no less than 86 species of flower ing plants abov^ the snow limit, and of these 56 were found some three hundred feet above the snow-line, while six occurred over fifteen hun dred feet above. The highest species of all, the glacial Ranunculus, was met with at over twelve thousand feet above the sea level on the Gross glockner. In another part of the Alps, viz., on the Finsteraarhorn, \it has been found at nearly 13,900 feet, the greatest height attained by a vascu lar plant in the Alps.—Scientific American. Stage Money. It has been observed that stags money must sometimes figure in the salaries that stage performers receive. In a breach of promise case, recently tried at New York, it was shown that an actress who was understood to be receiving $1,000 a week, was actually getting $300, out of which $80 was de ducted for booking and press agent fees. Still, as the press agent was giv ing her a salary of $1,000, she could hardly have begrudged the money she paid him.—Springfield Republican. Elater Fire-Fly. Another remarkable Insect found 111 Mexico is the Elater fire-fly, which tha Indians use as miniature torches. The men fasten them to their ankles in going through the forest, and the woo* en wear them in their hair under a thin gauze veil. Tiny little cages are constructed in which three or four are kept for lighting purposes. The in sects congregate by the thousands la many forest trees and, as if by pre concerted agreement, simultaneously flash their lights, then darken them and flash tbrna again. (, ALL BELONG TO ARYAN RACE Many Peoples of the Present Day Trace. Their Origin to That Group of Humanity. All the people who speak English, German, Russian, French, Spanish, Italian, Welsh, Erse or Irish, Scotch of Gaelic, and some ot the Asiatic lan guages, trace their origin back to the old Aryan race, says an exchange. It -used to be thought that the Aryans came from some point in Asia several thousands of years ago. But now cer tain people claim that their home was In the southern steppes of Russia and that the Indian and Persian branch went toward the east, the Slavs and Teutons into the German forests, and the Greeks toward, Greece while the forefathers of the Celts and Romans followed the Dan ube river into Italy and Gaul. We know that all these peoples are re lated from many words that have the same root, We can tell by words even now in use, when the peoples dwelt together, when they separated, one group from another, and some thing about their dally habits and lives. For Instances, we know that the Aryans traveled in carts drawn by cattle, because our words "wheel," "axle," "yoke" and "wagon" all come from Aryan root words. We know that at one time they were pastoral people, depending mainly on their flocks and herds, because our words "ewe," "wether." "wool," "cow," "ox," "steer" and "herd" come from Aryan words. Other words tell us that they were a nomadic people, migrating ac cording to the seafeon to obtain pastur age. It Is a curious thought, that seems to have occurred to no one, that many of the Aryan peoples are coming to gether again in the United States, for the first time since their separation thousands of years back.' It will take centuries for their amalgamation in what has been called the "melting pot ',' but doubtless the homologous people thus descended will be the greatest people in the world. The Wicked Bible. The "Wicked Bible" was the nam* given to an edition of the authorized scriptures, printed in London in 1631, by Robert Barker and Martin Lucas.
