IOHT IS beginning to break through the Chinese clouds. J The reply of President Mc- Klnley to the emperor of China supplies an unmistakable evi dence that the government of the United States has no ulterior purpose In Its military occupancy of Chinese soil and that It will do Its best to pre serve China from spoliation and dls membeiment provided the ruling au thoiltles In China will for their part deal openly and honorably with our government. As the case stands, the United State?, thuniKh these unhappy days of fright ful rumor and disquieting circum stances, has been consistent and toler ant in friendship for the Chinese gov ernment. It has withheld the other powers from rushing summailly Into a declaiatlon of war. It has abstained from any act of aggression directed against the lawful authorities in China and been a potent obstacle in the way of aggiesslon by otheis. It has refused to believe without confirmation the voi st that has been rumored regarding the governing class In China and has accepted In good faith the assurances of the Chinese government that the fanatical outiages in China have been In violation of its outers, contrary to its wishes and temporarily beyond it's ripiesslve and punitive control. Yet at no time has it neglected to take whnt eer piocautlons might bo found nd .tntngeous in case the lepresentatlons olllolally teceived from the Chinese government should be proved decept ive. Thus It has established a claim to the lasting good will of all honorable Chinamen without loss of strategic position In case it shall bo necessary to teach the dishonorable ones a les son. It must soon nppear to which .lass the Pekin authorities must be as cribed. If to the former, wo have added to their obligations nnd paved the way to new prestige In the Middle Kingdom, If to the latter, we have made so fair an effort to tteat them considerately that a change In treatment will offend no principle of Justice. The fact of the matter is being rap idly established that the Hon. John Hay knows his business. For Home Interests First. Till: TIUIUTNE has received from a resident of one of the western counties of this state a letter telling of large oppoitunltles for profitable in vestments to be made by men of means, Judgment nnd knowledge of mining In bituminous coal lands which are likely soon to be developed in that section. The writer of the letter would like to have The Tilbune com mission an expert to mnke an exami nation of the properties in question with a view to putting thu facts be fore the public. This supplies us with an opportunity to suggest that our men or means who havo suillcient property holdings in Scranton and its vicinity to causo them to be Interested in our city's fu ture or who, for other lensons, may dealt e that the Industrial nnd commer cial Hfp of Scranton shall continue to bov prosperous In Incteaslng piopor tlona should not neglect the home In vestment field, ven though they shfiuld occasionally ba induced to cm bafk In Investments more distant. 5'e boo no advantage In stilving to conceal the fact that Scranton must have In the next few years a largo additional dlveislflcatlon of home In dustiies If It would maintain Its pres ent population and grow as In the pas). This would not warrant any citizen in sinking his money In foolish local ventures, but it supplies a pow erful reason why, as between a home opportunity of conservative but sub stn'ntfal promise and a distant allure ment Involving many elements of risk, the Investor alteady Intel ested in Scranton should give his preferences unhesitatingly to the former. If he cni(s nothing for th city In which h nccitmnlatcd hi wealth, I uncon scious of any moral obligation to its people. Is not ttoublcd with public spirit nnd has unloaded all local ties, then nothing can be laid to dlssuado him from Keeklnc retires new; but If ho Intends to retain his residence In Srirrvntori, If ho has property Interests heie which would suffer If tho local business sltuntlon should experience re-ventes or If his sense of obli gation to tho nursery of his pros polity lte .sufllclently Keen to prompt Mm to go to some expwiso in the en- tlcnvor to safeguard llfl future, then there Is hope tlint he may bo made to tnke hold of the new problcmn now facing our city no the pioneers took hold of the enrlUr problems while this city was being bunded. The prospective retlicinent of the Hteel mills need not affect Scranton adversely If our bulness men will take meciButoH to offset it. Those mills will, of colltse, be missed, but two or thtco very much smnllcr industries, work ing steadily and making a more mil fotm dlsbtitsement of wnges Into the channels if general trade, would more than supply all dellch ncles and leave thu city decidedly the gnlner In con sequence of the change. Theie Is free capital enough In Scranton, n hundred times over, to cnpltallaa such new In dtiHtiles nnd to convert what super ficially seems n loss Into an nctunl benefit. It cannot bo expected to In vest Itself for philanthropic purposes wholly; no lensonablo person expects that; but It 1m preposterous to suppose that sufficient business skill does not exlnt among our Inhabitants or sub ject to their call to pilot to profitable results such investments as may be necessary to replace any which may bo withdrawn. For the leason that The Tribune Is more Interested in the development of Scranton Just now than In the devel opment of bituminous coal lands In western Pennsylvania, it must decline to accept the Invitation of its corres pondent. It does not question the mo tives of others, but for Itself it wants to see the money of Scranton used as far as possible In Increasing the prosperity of Sctnnton. If there Is a surplus not available locally then the claims of other places will bo in more seemly order. Colonel Quay is entirely correct In saying that both personally nnd politi cally President McKlnloy has been ex ceedingly kind to him and we don't wonder that the colonel resents the insinuation that he proposes to re ciprocate with a brlcKbat. Roosevelt on Americanism. (Kxtracts from Ills Atlantic Cltj Speech) Tlin OXE lesson that we all of us need not merely to learn, but to leatn so that it shall become part of our being, Is that if we are good Ameri cans In spirit and soul nnd purpose wo will Judge our fellow men without ref eience to dlffeiences of creed, of sec tion or soclnl position, but upon each man's worth as a man. There aie two or tin re things that Americanism means. In the flistt place, it means thnt wo shall give to our fellow-eltlzens th" same wide lat itude as to his individual beliefs that wo demand for out selves; that so long as a man does his work ns da man should we shall not hold for or ngalnst him In chic life nor Inquire his method of paying homnge to bis Maker. A"o have a right to demaid that each man shall bo treated by our people on his worth and merit, nnd that In political life especially shall wo beware above everything of being misled by any of the old world antagonisms of i.iee or creed, so that we shall feel that under no clrcumstences arc we Justified In supporting or opposing n man in pub lic life savo for the record he makes as a public man, save for his worth in public and private life alike, save for cause shown by his conduct ns an Ameilcan citizen in his ways of deal ing with American purpose" nnd In terests. That Is an Important lesson for rll of us to learn everywhcie; but it is doubly and tr'bly important In our great cities, where wo have a pop ulation so cosmooolltan, of such various origin, belonging to such dlf fetent creeds and where the problem of getting good government depend1) In Its essence upon decent men stand ing together and insisting that before we take into account the ordinary political questions we shall, as a piere qulslle, have decency, honesty In any party. Now for another side of American Ism, the side of woik, of strife, of the active perfounance of duty, one side of Americanism, one side of dem ocracy. Our democracy means that we have no privileged class, no clas that Is exempt from tho duties or depilved of the privileges that nre Im plied In ihe words "American citizen ship." That ptlnclple lias two sides to it Itself, for all of us would be likely to dwell continuously upon one aide all havo equal rights. It Is more importnnt that wo should dwell on the other side this is, that wo all have our duties, nnd that tho lights cannot bo kept unless the duties nre performed. The law of American life of cuune, It Is the lav of life every whcie, the law of real life but the law of American life peculiarly must be the law of woik, not tho law of idlenecs, not the law of self-indulgence or pleasure meiely tho law of woik. That may reem Ilka n trite saying. Most tiuo saIngs nro ttlte. Don't you know plenty of your fellows, of your ft lends, who practically fall to live up to it .' The Idle man, tho man who leads a llfo of mora self-indulgence or woman either coms thort In his or her duty, nnd comes as much short as the man who goes w i ong. Wo havo a right to mako heavier demands upon those who have been exceptionally favord by fortune than we have upon others. It Is a disgrace for any Amer ican not to do his duty, but It Is a double, a triple dlsgraco for t man of means or a man of education not to do his duty. You nre never going to get a reform, permanent and lasting reform, by res olutions. You have got to get it by the tense of performing duty so it appeals to tho individual. You are going to get good government, not by some movement or succession of move ments, each of which may be a little hysttilcal. You aie going tu get B"il govcrrment as each man gets It grad ually flted In his conscience that he la to be held blameworthy, to be held derelict In his duty, If ho docs not, in season end out, not spasmodically, but regularly, do his duty aa a citizen. That means woik, of course; It means effort; It menns doing what is a little unpleasant, especially at first. Hut It has got to be done; and of cours what I Bay of political life applies ex actly ns much In private life. Tho only work worth doing Is done by thnso men, those women, who learn not to shirk dlfllcultles, but to face them nnd overcome them. Americanism menns work, means effort, means con stant nnd unending etrlfe with our conditions, which Is not only the law of nature If the rnco U to progress, but which Is really the law of the highest hnpplness for ourselves. You nro to have a high Ideal, Just as high as you can make It, but you nre to tttrlvu to realize It in practlcnl fashion. There Is no use of having a high tdenl nnd only having n heart In It; you must be able to put It Into effect outside; you have to strive practlcnlly and actively to realize It, and to do that you have got to have three types or qualities. In the first place, you have got to be honest, yon nave got to have decency and upright ness. That Is one falling of our life which I think Is specially worthy of Imptesslon; It Is tho tendency you sometimes see to deify mere smartness without reference to any moral quality behind It. The fact that a man who Is a bad man Is nlso a clever one merely aggravates the offense. It makes him worse and more dangerous In the second place, ou must have coutnge. I don't care how good a mnn Is, if ho is timid his value Is limited. The timid boy will not amount to very muoh in the world. I want to see a good man ready to smite wiHi the sword. I want to see hlrn able to hold his own in active life ngalnst tho forces of evil. I want to see him able to war effectively for righteousness. Of all the things we don't want to see Is the tendency to divide Into two camps on the one side all the nice, uleasant, refined people, of hlgn instincts, but not cnpaclty to do effective work; on the other hand, men who have not got nice instincts at all, but who are not afraid. When you get that condition you are piepaiing Immeasurable disaster for the nation. You liave got to combine decency nnd honesty with courage. But even that is not enough, for I don't care how brave, how honest a man is, if he is a natural born fool, he cannot be a success. He has to have the saving grace of common sense. He hns to have the right kind of heart, he has to bo uptight and decent, he has to be brave, and ho has to have com mon sense, ho has got to have lntell gence; and If he hns theso three, then he has in him the mnklng of a first class American citizen. American "white caps" do not pro pose that Chinese "Boxers" shall have all of the notoriety. They have sent Minister Wit a note ordering him to get out of Washington In 48 hours, but he Is not going. In counting chickens before they nre hatched, it is useless for Republicans to try to compete with their oppo nents who do all their counting that way and have so much time to prac tice. Republicans who don't like Mark Hanna are not going to be so silly this year as to vent that feeling at the expense of President MoKlnley and the country. Senator Pettlgrew nnd his friend Alejandrlno do not attract as much at tention In their last act ns a pair of last year's song and dance soubrettes. If the powers of Europe had moro faith In themselves they probably would not be so skeptical regarding the avowed Intentions of China. Mr. Astor might take revenge on tha English for refusing to accept his apology by sending a campaign sub scription to President Kruger. Germany now realizes the folly of supplying barbarians with guns In the hope that they will be pointed at some one else. The man who "personally conducts" the preparation of the Ingredients of the clam bake now hai the right of way. Mr. Towne evidently Intends to stay on the ticket with Brynn until tho intlfication season Is over at least. Those mlsslonatles who have to leave China might get to work on some of the men who run the foreign offices. Imagine a Bryan cabinet of Populist freaks and free sliver snorters hand ling this Intricate Chinese affair, A little more of the Decalogue would vastly Improve much of the modern diplomacy of Europe.

An illustrated feature of the September Woman's Home Companion will be an account n! how these little mothers are trained. Telegraphic reports from China are ao meagro and so confusing that It Is a relief to find an article upon whlih ono can rely for authentic information. Such an article is "The Mili tary (Situation In China," which Major Gen eral II. C. Corblu, l'. h. A., contributes to tht current issue of Collier's Weekly. In tho August Issuo of ftcrjbodj's Magazine the dtllghtful autobiography of Stuart ltoliaon grows In fascination.

Ualiie of Labor of The Weather Blireatt i N Vir.W of the fact that Scranton is soon to be a regular obscnatlon station of the United States weather buriaii, some fai.li, historical and otherwise?, touching tho work of that bureau and Ita value to the public may bo worthy of extraction from a recent publica tion of the department of agriculture at Wash ington During tho eighteenth century but little progress was made in detecting any sort or regular sequence In the apparently erratic phe nomena known as the weather. Tranklln had perceived that storms moved northeastward from Philadelphia toward Jfcw Knglind, which lcvv was the result of M obiervatlons and private correspondence rcgirding the exact time whm the maximum severity of storms was felt at dlHerent places. Thomas Jlfer-on, at Mnmlcello, and James Madison, at Williamsburg, in Vir ginia, had taken tsome simultaneous observa tions In the jcars 1772 1777, and certain con clusions were drawn from them The billet gradually took alupe among students of the day, both in America and In I'.urope, that storms hiil n progressive movement and a whirling motion about the center. Lavoisier and Uordi, ill Krance, propuied to istabll-di btatlons over a large territory and examine tho simultaneous records In order to detect tho laws of storms. Mitchell, in America; Capper, in India; I.ing ford, for tho West Indies, and Urandes and Dove, In Europe, had contributed certain no tions on the subject, some holding that storms are whirls in the atmosphere, though generally the view was cvprcwd tint thej aie dtralght tine gales. Hurts of virious kinds were con structed by different lndlviduils, and tho pub llcatlon of these at length plircel students ill a position to begin the alow advance from mere hypothetical conjectures regarding the motions of the air to the eleflnite scientific knowledge of the laws which we possess todiy. During the nineteenth century the observations of at mospheric phenomena hive been enormously multiplied all over the world, and a correct classification of them around fundamental livvi has proceeded steadily, If not very rapidly. In 1S5C, weather charts were ellsphjed every elav bv the Smithsonian institution, under tho direction of Professor Henrj, wherein appropri ate symbols Indicated the stale of the atmos phere over tho United States, nnd this enlight ened plan was continued till Interrupted by the civil war, in 1SC1. Lcverrler, the great astron omer of Krance, in Is"! I studied the European reports received concerning tho weather. In 1SJ5 he submitted a plan to the emperor for a meteorological network over France. In lboi he began to make maps, with a sjbtcm of thir teen telegraph and eleven post stations. In 1857 he published an international bulletin. In 18.18 it became a daily bulletin. In ISfia he flm made predictions for ports On September 11, 1W3, he printed the weather map for the day, and It has not been discontinued since tint time. It is thus seen that to France is due tho credit of first Issuing a permanent set of dallv maps with forecasts In 1SG9 General A. J. Mjer presented to the secretary of war a scheme of weather warnings suitable for execution by the signal corps. I'rof. I. A. Ijpham, of Mil waukee, Wis., sought to secure for the great lakes the benefit of weather forecasts by ex tending the fccrviee over that region, and so licited the co-operation of the Chicago board of trade. He drew up n petition to thu Chicago Academy of Science, but one of Its most char minded members, Mr. Halbert K. Paine, said the petition should go to congress, and that the weather predictions should bo for the whole coun try, and not for any small section thereof. The indorsement of the national hoird of trade was secured. Mr. Paine obtained the approval and support of the secretary of war, and, liappllv, procured the passage of a Joint resolution by congress, which was approved Feb. 9, WO Thus the Fervice of forecasting weather conditions was formelly authorized by the government of the United States and Intrusted to the signal corps of the War department, nf width Briga dier Orneral Albert J. Mjer was In command. Congress In isoo passed an act which not only made permanent the organization, but al.o pro vided for the absoluto tiansfer of the meteor ological work from the signal corps of the war department to the department of agriculture. Professor Moore, the present efficient chief of the weather bureau, has met the practical wants of the public by an Intreaso In the facilities for distribution of forecasts by Improvements in the local dally weather map, In the unifica tion of the form of tho local publications in the different states, by several important sci entific investigations, Including the relations of tho sun to the earth through magnetism, the exploration of tho lower strati oi the atmos phere by means of kite ascensions and tho higher strata by cloud observations in co-operation with tho International commission during 1S90 7. The discovery of the laws affecting the seasonal changes would certainly be of such benefit to mankind, in the complex civilization upon which modern llfo is entering, as to Justify the expense and the patient labor Involved in such a contri bution from each generation to Its successor. The weather bureau has contributed to meteor ology several standard memoirs, besides a mul titude of minor papers of every kind. Tho rynamlc problem of the motions of tho atmos phere is kept steadily in view, and advances are being made from time to time in this most Important subject. EDUCATIONAL CHANGES. From tie Chicago Tlmes-IIcrald. Iletter proof of tha fact that the people are drifting away from pills and litigation could not bo furnished than is presented by the remarkable growtli ct technical education in the United States. Time was when the surplus proceeds of the farm were devoted to educating the farm er's ton In law or In medicine. The farmer did not want his son to be a tiller of the soil or a mechanic, lie must b a lawjer or a doctor! once In a great while he was educated for tha mlnistiy These itood out In the farmer's mind si the highway to tho loftiest mountain tops of human ambition Hut our wonderful industrial development hai wrought a great change In educational ideas. I'.ven the public schools are endeavoring in their limited way to meet the publlo demand for an education that trains the hands aa well ss the mind and which la a the foundation tor me chanical and scientific puraulta Ileallrlng that tho "polite professions" are unprofitable ami overcrowded, oung men are now shaping their education with a view to becoming electrical and mining englneera. It Is only since the war that technical educa tionthe application of the sciences to the needs of man has had any marked development. The I drift to electrical engineering, In fact, dstei hack only ns far as the first successful inventions fu electric ninlive and lighting power, which have completely revolutionized the svstems of trauKirtatiuu and illumination There are now slxtj four technical colleges In this country, all but four of which have been founded since the civil war. There are eight nine institutions, however, tint give Instruction in the dlllcrcnt branches of engineering. In a recent address be fore the Soelety for tho Promotion of Engineer ing Education In New York Professor Ira O. Haker of the University of Illinois gave a table showing the courses of instruction and number of sti dints In these clghty-iilnc institutions, which was as follows; Institutions Number Oradu- nlle ring of ales in courses, students. ls90.

Wc men here on the road are always in such a "hustle," and get so little time to eat and have to swallow our food so quickly, no wonder we have dyspepsia. I know I suffered with it for nearly two years before I got "onto" the Tabules, and 1 was in misery all the time. I constantly had pains in my stomach and chest, and a dizzy feeling about my head. My bowels didn't work regularly, and I felt " mean " all the time. I caw Ripans Tabules advertised so much I bought Borne, and after taking them for a month felt like a new man.
