For Sale, e'c The Betterment of London Associa tlon has presented a petition to tbe County Council requesting that It should deal with the question of street noises throughout the metropolis. A dead man was found at the end nf a nlcket rot)e in his barn in a Southern Kansas town the other day. The local paper says "it is generally be lieved that he hung himself with sui; cjdal intent." The Appellate Court of Illinois has just reversed a decision for damages on the ground that the attorney for the plaintiff laid undue stress on the fact that an .insurance company was defending the suit. An employee of the Eckhart & Swan Milling Company was killed, and the Fidelity and Cas ualty Company, in which the firm was Insured, defended the suit for damages, Prejudice was aroused in the minds of the jurors on this account. Some astonishing "cures" have been made lately. A man who had been blind for a quarter of a century had his sight restored by the bursting of a (boiler and the escape of steam into his face. Another man was cured of a dis ease of the lungs of long standing by the kick of a horse. And a man who swallowed the rubber tubing of a stom ach pump recovered from a distressing dyspepsia which had clung to him for years. "Private" John Allen told this story In Washington the other day; "There is an East St. Louis citizen named Zel lerbaum. Zellerbaum saw little service during the civil war, but Insists that he Was in the greatest battles. To his hearers one night at a Grand Army camp fire Zellerbaum was telling of his prowess In two battles. A little man in the back of the hall arose. 'Both those battles were fought on the same day and fifteen hundred miles apart,' he said. 'My friends,' shouted Zellerbaum, 'there is a traitor among us! Throw the rebel out!' And they did." Lord Kelvin, the great English scien tist, who Is to be entertained by Amer ican scientific societies in New York thie week, is entitled to use the follow ing portentous string of initials after his name: G. C. V. O.. D. C. L LL. D M. D., D. Sc., Ph. D., M. A., F. R. S, E. He has been decorated by nearly all governments. He is 78 years old, but is still a very lively man, fond of a good dinner and a good Joke, and unlike many scientific men, not at all sedentary In his habits. At college he pulled a good oar and was reckoned a first rate musician. There is less talk about the compul sory retirement of General Miles, but 1 Is still expected that he will have i retire. Meanwhile it is interesting l notice that when General Miles, in h testimony before the Senate investigat ing committee, said that he knew tha cruelties had, been practiced on the Ullplnos he mildly told the truth. The testimony that has been given since lie made that statement is amply corrobo ratlve of It. What has come out lias made quite an impression on some whu have been pretty severe in their talk about Miles. The Boston Herald, for instance, which now says: Though we have freely criticised General Miles on features in his action which it seemed to us were open to adverse comment, it has to be conceded, we think, that he has done a clear public service by call ing attention to the severity of action under our military forces in the Philip pine islands. There had been general charges of cruelty, but the first intima tion received of the more specific tor tures that have since been disclosed came from him, and it was full time that the public knew more about them than it seemed likely to get from of ficial quarters. The subsequent action of the secretary of war is ample justi flcation for what vta.a a practical pro test on the part of General Miles on this point. If Miles Is a disturber he made the right kind of disturbance that time And though we are told that the truth shouldn't be spoken at all times, that speaking of it would hardly be proper ground for his removal. SOMK JCS11F1ABLH COVMEST. As we supposed would be the case, the report that Yale has "A Criminal Club," and that this club is going to have a dinner at the shore, is exciting soma critical comment. Thus the Worcester Spy says: "It is difficult to understand how an arrest even for a college prank can be looked upon as something of which to boast publicly. One would suppose that the experience of falling Into the hands of the police would be an event to be kept in the background rather than to be exploit ed." And the Hartford Courant says: Outside the college atmosphere the in ference will be drawn that the whole thing is a sort of Jail bird rally, getting Its character from persons who have none. For this reason the meeting it self and the publication of its nature are both to be regretted." Very true. It will strike most people of good sense and good taste that students who have been arrested, even It V3I I! O F COM F( IIT FORK ! Jt III A Mt The Germans are somewhat depressed just now, but they can find crumbs of comfort. The official figures of the trade of the German empire In 1901, ex pressed in thousands of marks, are im ports, 5,709,782, compared with 6,042,992 in the year 1900; and exports, 4,512,640, compared with 4.752,601 in 1900. Com parison of the figures for the last five years shows that both imports and ex ports exhibited an uninterrupted In crease roin 1S97 to 1900, and that 1901 is the first year which compares un favorably with the year immediately preceding, although the returns for 1901 are more favorable than those of 1899. Dr. Dietyl, professor of political econ omy at the university or nonn, ue clares that the Importance of the eco nomic depression has been exaggerated. He argues that the altogether unprece dented expansion of German industry and commerce "during the years 1896- 1900 necessarily was followed by a pe riod of comparative quiet, which pro duced the impression of a collapse. But a careful consideration of the prices paid from 1898 to 1900 leads to the con clusion that they did not represent an altogether normal development. A fall, therefore, if not excessive, 6hould be regarded as a natural reaction of a healthily constituted organism. The fall in 1901, although acutely felt in many Individual cases, was not. In his opinion, dangerous. The accounts of the prevailing distress, he declares, have been greatly exaggerated. The most trustworthy calculations estimate the number of unemployed In the German empire at about 500,000, a per centage only slightly in excess of that eported by the English trade unions in their periods of greatest prosperity. While this wont greatly encourage the Germans who are out of work, It may help to keep up the spirits of those who have been fearing worse times. army, always candidly saying that the change, so far as the two armies is con cerned, is a great advance, a blessing to the people. It is a curious thing that the people who come to us from the in land towns where they have seen no Americans except the soldiers and the soldiers at their worst that these poor people have such favorable ideas to ward the Americans. Yet this has been the case, though they have suffered much at the hands of the soldiers. While I can Join with Christian Ameri ca In condemning the lust and drunk enness of the American army, and while I must always plead with God to stay the terrible forces of sin that are making ravage in their ranks, I must with all my might protest against the extreme and inconsiderate condemna tion the army has received ar.d Is re ceiving in a large percentage of the press in America. j When the islands are thoroughly pa cified, and it is wise for them to do eo, it will be best for the army to retire. It is an instrument of war, to be em ployed only when the needs are grave. In the meantime, t!ie Christian attitude of those at home should in all fairness be less of censure, and more and more of faithful prayer and Christian sympa thy for the military powers in these isi- t,iS persistent request that the play be I eight hundred and seventy-seven thou sand dollars shy," as the gamblers would say. The count lost this im mense fortune in playing baccarat at the rooms of the Vienna Jockey club, and the amount of money that passed from his hands each. quarter of an hour represented more than the earnings of the average workman during his life time. It was in an effort to retrieve past losings that the count made his fatal plunge. He had been a heavy loser for two evenings, and went Into the memorable game with a determina tion to play even. His first opponent was the Hungarian deputy, Herr von Szemere. The latter not being a weal thy man, moderate stakes prevailed at tne outset of the game. Later Prince Braganza dropped in and took a hand. and the stakes gradually went up until tne onlookers stood back in amazement. Both the prince and the deputy won steadily from the outset. It seemed that every turn of the cards was in tneir favor,, and the run of bad luck caused Count Potocki to lose his head. He became reckless and each deal brought a demand from him for an in crease of the stakes.

And students who have been arrested for drunkenness, fighting and worse things should certainly aim to keep that part of their college life in the background They try hard enough to conceal them selves when they are arrested, and they should keep up the effort. There is nothing creditable or funny in being a member of a Criminal Club, even if that club' Is composed of young gentle men who are fitting tnemseives to be leaders of the people. We hope to see an announcement that the report that there is a Yale Criminal Club and that t is going to gather at the shore is an unmitigated lie. We don't believe it is an unmitigated lie, but that is the ap proved way nowadays of disposing of inconvenient newspaper reports. The National Provlsloner denies the charge "that the five big packing con cerns form a despotic meat trust that drives all competition to the wall, puts up prices at will, and that this combine, by one stroke of the pen, so raised prices as to take $100,000,000 extra out of the helpless consumers' pockets and added It to its already profitable greed." The Provlsioner notes that there are killed In this country about M,000,000 head of cattle, Including calves. Of these 5,000,000 are killed at thirty official abattoirs and the other 6,000,000 are kill ed at 900 unofficial abattoirs by farmers and small slaughterers. The trust kills 8,000,000, and outside slaughterers kill 8,000,000 head. It Is Interesting to notice that the dynamiting which was a feature of the St. Louis street car strike last year la being punished to the uttermost. Three men were eought for the crimes. Two were arrested. One is now in prison for an eight years' sentence and a third has escaped, but with a sentence of ten years hanging over him and rewards outstanding for his capture. The other man fled to San Francisco. Under a false name he secured employment as a conductor and lived in peace until the oinur uay he was killed in an accident on his car, when he was identified. The missing Individual Is being sought high and low. Worst and Best. "You didn't put aa much vim as usual into the line, 'Vil lain, do your worst!'" said the man ager.

According to the resident correspondent of the London Times at Shanghai, the excess es committed by western troops in Chi na are likely to prove very costly to the powers concerned both from the politi cal and the missionary standpoint. There has been, it Is true, an increase of western influence in certain ways. "A widely circulated and generally pro gressive native press" has preached the necessity of reforms along western lines, but the story of inexcusable atrocities has been told also, with the result that the Christian church is per haps the greatest sufferer: "To the simple-minded Chinese the fact and it is a fact that the forces of Christian nations, as a whole, compared very un favorably in the matter of common hu manity with those of heathen Japan i3 one which the most eloquent mission ary will find it very hard to explain away. Asa moral force our religion has certainly Buffered in Chinese eyes, natural result of the bloodthirsty in humanities committed by the troops of more than one power before and after the taking of Peking." Turning now to the political aspects of the affair, it would appear that there is a decided tendency toward the cultivation of friendly relations with the Japanese. The three most influential viceroys are doing their utmost to promote such a policy, and it is already made plain that it is through Japan that China proposes to acquire a knowledge of the Institu tions of western civilization. "From every province students have been sent of late, some officially, some at private expense, to study the arts of govern ment, war and peace in Japan." If China should learn what Japan can teach her and then combine with Japan there would be a bigger eastern prob lem than there is. "Ton 4o not speak English, madam?' inquired the interviewer.

COMMENTS OF A MISSluNAUY, ands. No other nation has so clean and so moral an army. No other nation, ex cepting England, has an army that the Filipinos could afford to have supplant our army here. And tne Desr. oi tne Filipinos are waking up to this fact and acting like men. One of the leading men in Jaro, full-blooded Visayan, told me in all sincerity that he had been im pressed with two things in the Ameri can soldiers that had much to do with changing his thinking and attitude to ward Amer.'ca. First, that the soldiers, as they met a Filipino cart or vehicle in the road always gave half the road, even doing the same with a poor peas ant, and that the like of that nau was never seen on the part of a soldier, either native or Spanish before the Americans came. The other fact that he considered as of greatest import is that all Americans, soldiers, off! cers, civilians, always speak ippines are undergoing as a misfortune, or Spanish before the Americans came. The othor fact that he considered as of greatest Import, civilians, always speak of the war and the hard times the Phil ippines are undergoing as a misfortune; and that he has not yet seen any American gloat over the disasters the Filipinos are meeting as they are learn ing hard lessons and passing through the trying time of transition. That Is the testimony from the heart of an hon est Filipino who was a bitter hater of all that Is American until recently. Despite all that may be said against tha cruelties and abuses of the war, ours Is, after all, the more humane way to deal with the problem. If the native forces are allrfwed their right of way, the poor people are forced Into lnurrec to ranks or butchered; they must sup port the Insurrection with money and supplies, and then be treated e.i slaves for their pay. Eternal slavery Is the re sult of ultimate insurreeto victory. Most of the peasants know this on'y too well, and pray for our speedy coming and quick victory. In some half-lights the war my look un-Am?r:cm; but In the conditions that Rre met here to prosecute this war is the most humane thing that can be done. Insurrection schemes have been unearthed and quietly attended to be fore they brought untold suffering upon innocent people. Only in this way have our men been able to deal with the Katlpunan movement and Its terrible methods (for a description of which read Review of Reviews for November, 1901, article by Captain John H. Park er). Let us at least judge all this fair ly, seeing both eldes of it, and thinking twice before we condemn. I have heard of natives being shot down without quarter, prisoners being bayoneted without, mercy. Such things have happened. War Is hell, and hu man passions are terrible when aroused and turned loose. But these are onlv phases of the war that are exceptional, scattered, Incidental and inevitable to the conditions. No other army, no oth er war In history has so clean a record as has our army in the Philippines. Oh! for the time to hurry up and come when the American people shall use their eyes and their reason, and be fair with the facts. We are living in an actual world of cold, hard facts, in many cases ter rible facts. Our army, our government has been meeting thess facts, and meet ing them as a Christian nation could best meet them. Some men and writ ers have tried to believe and tried to make others believe that we are living In the Ideal world, and that this treat ment which meets the facts so ade quately Is a bad policy because it does not accord well with their Ideal World. We are in a world of cold, hard facts, and our army has been meeting such cold, hard facts, and we may well be proud of them for so doing. Nothing is more certain than that the verdict of history will be that one of the greatest evidences of the advance of true Ideas of God and human worth were being realized in the 19th century in the fact that In the closing years of that cen tury a mighty nation interfered In Cuba and In the Philippines, though it cost them much trouble, money and blood, and freed two great masses of oppress ed people from worse than slavery. May God help us to realize this and appre ciate It In our own day. Nothing but the power of Almighty God could use war and wicked armies to advance his purposes In the world. But God can da it. He can work with the famine, with the earthquake, with the cataclysm of war and carnage, because God Is deal ing with things as they are. not as men fain would have them be. He Is the God of truth, the God of the Actual, and over-rules events In themselves evil. Rev. Charles W. Brlggs, located In Penay, in the Boston Transcript. made more spirited.

The loss of thousands of dollars in a sinele "slttltur" is no uncommon thing among men who follow the vagaries of pasteboard speculation, but a recent experience of Count Joseph Potocki, a Russian nobleman, caps the climax. The count lost eight hundred thousand dollars in four hours of play, and this is generally regarded as the largest sunt that ever passed from the hands of a player at one "sitting." This gam bling Is the colossal plunge in the his tory of gambling.

A word to the wise Is all sufficient at this time to dispel any efforts to discredit what has always been claimed for this house absolute re liability. Insinuations and Innuendo are one thing; proof is another. When it comes to proving true there is due a triumphant vindication of the house and a chagrined discomfiture for those who would like to see a venal transaction made a bar sinis ter of the spotless escutcheon. This, by way of preamble, is a note of caution to those who hear rumors calculated to effect the busi ness of liquidation now in progress in the auction sale.
