Thk theory that a tired brain is
the reault of eating too much is all
wrong. It comes from hustling too

Off For France in a Skiff.
Captain William Andrews sailed
from Atlantic City, N. J., the Kratof
last week for Europe, in thc smallest
craft that ever made the attempt.
The tiny boat, called the Doree, is
twelve feet long, five feet wide and
twenty-two inches deep, and is pro?
visioned to last two mouths. She
was built by thc captain, is sloop
rigged and carries thirteen yards of
sail. The canvas*, and hull arc
painted dark hine, so as not to attract
thc attention of shaiks. Over 1,000
peis,,ns were on the pier and Bcveral
thousand on the boardwalk and
strand to witness Andrew's depart?
ure, The captain expects to arrive
at the Azore Islands in about fifty
days. There he will replenish his
stock ol provisions and tbencontinue
to his destination, the coast ol' Prance.
Ile was to have been accompanied by
Della Shinn, of this eily, hut after
the craft was prepared lol her voyage
ii was lound that there was not
enough room for two. Miss shinn
said good-hve to her friends and had
everything ready fci the trip. She
cried winn the Doree Bailed without
her. She declares she will yul go to
il Europe in a skill", ii she has to learn
navigation and gu hy herself.

The Work ot Our Delegation
at The Hague.
The greal purpose ol thc American
delegation at The ll'-gue has heen to
promote the principle of arbitration.
This country above all others has,
both by profession and by practice,
stood before the world for the plan
of arbitration as a substitute for war.
A great many of the European dele?
gates wciii to I lie conference at The
Hague iu a somewhat cynical and
skeptical mood, pre* aretj t? baye a
rather agreeable sojourn, hut with
very little /.cal or faith touching the
inisiiiess for which the gathering was
aaaembled. lt was a b.idy of men of
immense talent, but it seemed at the
outset to possess very little inspira?
tion. The less widely noted ol' the
members, as it tn med out, were in
most cases men who had heen select?
ed with singular ca*--* hy their respec?
tive governments on account ul theil
learning, talents, and high cliHrartc*
It seems to have devolved upon tbs
American delegation, as more frte
from diplomatic complications than
any ol' the others, to supply the con
ferenee to some extent with real and
practical aims, lt soon became evi?
dent that the Americans were at Thc
Hague meaning business, and deter?
mined either to help accomplish
something of value or else to show
the world afterward exactly who it
was that prevented thc attainment
of results. Last year's war had
greatly iimre.i'-ed the prestige of the
United Staten, ami had aroused no
little curiosity among the diplomat*.
and publicists of other nations gath?
ered nt The Hague as to tho j*art
that America was proposing to play
henceforth in the affairs of the world
at large. The American delegates
on their part seem rather naively to
havo set forth their expectation that
the great Kuropean authorities on
international law assembled for tho
purpose of devising ways to do away
with the evils ol' war would, of course,
not think of breaking up the confer?
ence and going home until thev had
done something of lasting impor?
tance. All this was immensely helped
out by tho matter-of-fact way iu
which Sir dulian I'auncefote, head of
the iiritish delegation, declared that
he was entirely at one with his Amer?
ican colleagues iu his anticipations.
Qermaay, thongh not so openij ? i
pouaing American views, was none
thc Ic-s pi.'pared in adi IU( e,
general policy, to support any line
of action that the United States and
England might agree arnon. Hut for
thc American delegation, the atm to
phera*of diplomatic suspicion would
scarcely have been dispelled, and tl"'
conference, it is to be feared, might
have amounted to ter** little indeed.
lt is not so much that the Americans
led the work of the conferei. as
that the frank and straightforward
| spiiit that they manifested aroused
earneetness and gave direction to the
I purpose of t li- ii eminent European
1 colleagues.? Bevii ic oj Rt ru ii *.
