Do Yott Find the Wicked Cheerful?
In the American Magazine David i
Grayson, author of "Hempfieid," coin-i
ments as follows on the cheerfulness j
of the wicked:
• • We are nearly all of us shocked by ',
the cheerfulness of the wicked. Wo
feel that those whom we have set
aside as reprobates or sinful specta
cles should by good right draw long
faces and be appropriately miserable,
and we never become quite accus
tomed to our *wii surprise at finding i
them happy or contented."
We are always striving for things
forbidden and coveting those denied
us.—Ovid.

First Sumptuary Laws
laws regulating eating, drinking
and dressing are almost as old as his-
I'tory itself. Nothing like exactness
can be reached in the matter, but it is
I safe to say that it was in Egypt as far
I back as 3000 B. C. that the first prae
| tical sumptuary statutes were passed.
Among the Romans they first appear
i e<l in Ihe eeJebrated ''twelve tables."
In modern times Charlemagne was the
II pioneer in sumptuary legislation.

BETHLEHEM STEEL MAKES

On the Defensive
New York. April 13.—Wall Street.
Kstpblighineut of another record by
; Bethlehem Steel which rose to 127,
.two points above ton high price was
'the noteworthy feature of to-day's
J early inarket.-This gaiu WHS soon lost,
i however, and the movement elsewhere
: was again indicative of Celling for
| profit and renewal of professional
operations for the decline. Kock Island
I rose over a point in recognition of the
J new interest in the board but it soon
J registered a material loss. Numerous
specialties, including equipments and
indict rials rose 1 to 2q>oints. Trading
was active with reactionary tendencies
before the end of the half hour. >
Bethlehem Steel held first place
throughout the first hour, advancing
15 1-2 points to 139 1-2. In the second
hour it r<*c to 112, an overnight gain
of 18 points. Contrary to recent days
the balance of the market was not ad
i versely affected by the movement in
j Bethlehem Steel, but gathered greater
j strength, especially in United States
1 Steel, Amalgamated and other leaders,
J where gaius of 1 to 2 points were
; made. Peace rumors which had their
| origin i noftii-iai quartern at Washing
j ton, were used as a basis for the re
vival of activity. Bonds were steady.

DEEP SEA EXPLORATIONS.
Fishing With a Line That le Some
times Over Bix Miles Long.
■ The Albatross, the vessel tbat has
been used by the oceauographers for
some thirty years In de/ep sea explora
tions, fishes with a line three miles
; long, -often four miles long, sometimes
j six miles long or over, a line of slender
cable, but wonderfully strong, rolled
' off a deck winch by a sputtering
Bte(vin Engine. that will bring up from
the ocean tloor a three or four ton
haul of s|>onges. crinolds, jellyfish, sea
urchins, giant crabs, long white worms
that break in two If you touch them,
phosphorescent trees (really animals),
sea cucumbers with hideous ileitis,
starfish, devilfish, pelican fish, lantern
llsh, sharks' teeth, whales' ear bones,
sea cows' ribs and scores of other ex
traordinary things.
The Albatross follows no beaten
paths of commerce. She goes where
other vessels rarely go. She explores
forgotten corners of the seven seas,
drops her great nets by day and by
night, takes hundreds of soundings In
uncharted waters and. after a cruise
of months, brings home her trophies
for final safe keeping tn Jars tilled with
alcohol and labeled with Greek and
Latin names. This sort of work she
has been doing for thirty odd years,
•rer since George W. Balrd designed
her engines for the Dnited States fish
eries service In 1882. It Is worthy
of note that the Albatross was the first
steel steamer built In America.—'Cleve

STBATEGYJN WAI.
Retreats to Lure the Enemy From
His Base of Supplies.
KNOWN AS FABIAN TACTICS.
Methodi That Have Been lleed by
Warriara Skioi Before the
Christian Era —George Washington
Wee Called the American Fabiua.
After the great war In Europe had
broken loose in the summer of 1&14
and the allies fell back froni their first j
line In northern Km nee to the Marnfe a
good deal was said and written of "Fa
biau tncttea." and when the Germans
fell back from the line of the Maiue
to the .Visile more said of "Fa-
I'lan tactics." In this country when
Washington und the heroic Continental
army fell back before the Kngllsh In
superior force and of superior equip
ment and perhaps superior discipline,
bla tactics were lulled "Fabian." In
fact Genoral George Washington was
culled and by historical writers is still
referred to us "the American Fablus."
It is |>robnbly true that many Amer
icans long putted from tlielr school
books have forgotten about Fablus,
even though wbeuever an arm} 1 makes
an orderly retreat for the purpose of
gaining tluie or reaching n more favor
able position they speak fluently of
"Fabian tactics." It is a phrase that
comes trippingly off the tongue.
Fablus, ns might easily be guessed
frou) his name, was a Roman. He
commanded the legions of Rome
against the powers of Carthage 200
years before the Christian era. The
tactics which came to be called after
Fablus were uo doubt employed cen
turies before Rome was born. Fabian
tactics without doubt have been used
ever siuce bodies of men made war,
but it may be that Fablus so refined
or systematized those tactics thnt It Is
\ust and worthy they bear his name.
Fabius In 217 11. C. stood opposite
the hosts or hordes of Carthagin
ians under the brilliunt leadership of
Hannibal, lu battle before Fabius
Maiimue was called to the supreme
command of the Roman troops in the
field the Carthaginians had been vic
torious. Fablus, profiting by what
had befallen his predecessors Iti com
mand, avoided a pitched battle in the
open anil retreated, fighting ns he fell
back, holding off the enemy with
what are now described as rear guard
actions. Drawing the enemy farther
and farther from base or the sources
of supplies, wearying their trooi»
more than he wearied his own and
delaying a battle Until he reached
ground where his p«-ition would give
him a grei:t advantage—a position
agaltist superior numbers—where the
loss in men and morale of the assall
! ants must be great and where at
; the proper moment the counterstroke
j could be delivered with high promise
j of success, the tactics of Fablus won.
I In some ways "the phrase "Fabian
I tactics" has been diverted from its
j original and proper significance and
| Is made to comprehend any tactica of
! a particularly shrewd or "foxy" na-
I ture. In this connection it has been
, said that Napoleon employed "Fabian
tactics" with brilliant success at Aus
i terlltz. Tho combined Austrian and
' Russian armies greatly extended their
1 line In an effort to turn the right
1 flank of the French army and cut his
I communications. It seemed as though
i this move would succeed, for Napoleon
permitted It to develop without seri
ous resistance. Then he suddenly con
centrated his whole strength at the
center, with the exception of a portlou
of Bernadotte's corps, which he left to
deal with the Austrian turning force,
and burst through the line, destroying
one wing of the Austrian army as it
retreated.
Historians of Home fleal at consid
erable length with o family called the
Fabii. It is narrated that this undent
and renowned family undertook the
duty of defending Itoman territory
against Incursions by the Veientlnes
and for this, purpose established them
solves nt a pluee on the Cremara river.
The Fabii were <W-UWD into ambush
and were all killed. The date of that
event Is given as It. C. 177.
A boy of the family Fabii had been
left in Rome, and he became the sec
ond founder of the family. Fabltts
F4Xlmus. wlio won his laurels and his
spurs In the second Funic war, was
descended from that l>oy, and, there
was another famous member of the
family whoso name was Fnbius Plctor,
who wrote a history of Rome and who
Is often referred to as the earliest Ro
man historian.- -Washington Star.
A DIVERTED RIVER.
Who Changed the Flow of the Karun
In Persia Is a Mystery.
Arabistan lies at-tbe bend of the Per
sian gulf. Its western boundary being
the Shntel-Arab. the great river formed
by the combined waters of the Tigris
ind Euphrates, the rigbt bank of which
ia in Persian territory, while the left
Is in Arabia.- Forty miles
above where It flows Into the Persian
gulf the Shatel-Arab is Joined by the
Karun, and the town of Mohammerah
stands at the junction of the two rivers,
the former a clear green stream, the
latter thick and red.
In ancient times the Karun flowed
into the gulf and part of the river still
runs along the old channel, but the
main strpuju has been diverted, three
miles above Mohammerah. into an arti
ficial channel known geographically
as the Haffar canal.
It Is Impossible even to make a guess
at the date of this wonderful work, not
even a tradition remaining of the ruler
whose farsightedness realised the enor
mous advnntage of joining up the two
water ways. Alexander the Great has
been suggested, but apparently for no
other renson than that he Is a con
venient and likely person to credit with
any ambitious enterprise, and that one
of his many Alexandras was built on
the site of the present Mohammerah.—

SISTERS ARE OUTRAGED IN
MEXICO, SAYS 88. KELLY
Head of Catholic Church Extension So
ciety Declares That Murder la
"One of the Minor Faults" In the.
Republic Torn by Revolutions
By Aaattcuiinl Prttai,
Pittsburgh, Pa., April 13.—Declar
ing that " murder knit bee 11 one of the
minor faults of the revolution in Mex- ■
ieo ' and tlmt "its story is far worse
thuu the story of the first revolution in
Prance," tlio ( Very Rev. Francis C.
Kelly, of Chicago, president of the
Catholic Church Kxtension Society, to- •
day discussed "Mexico and thu Amer
ican Church'' before an important
gathering of clergymen here. <The oc
casion was the dedication of the synod
hall aiid chancery building of the dio
cese of Pittsburgh.
I>r. Kelly said that present day
difficulties in Mexico were largely be
ciiusy of three serious question: Tho
rights of conscience, land ami educa
tion. Mexico, he said, had been with
out anything like freedom yf consilience
for more than fifty years.
Church property had been confiscat
ed Juarez and had never been returned.
No outward manifestation of religion
was permitted, even distinctive dress
ot clergymen being prohibited in tho
street*. In tho large cities schools were
supplied bv the state but outside such
communities Mexico practically has no
schools. The stnt»> lias never been able '
to supply them and the church was not
allowed to do so.
"Murder a Minor Fault"
"The church has avoided interfe
rence in political affairs," said Dr.
Kelly, "aiid church men are notorious
ly timid even about their own defeuse.
The church accepted Juarez, Diaz and
Madero. She will accept whatever le
gitimate ruler conies out of tho pres
ent chaos.
"The story of the present revolution
in Mexico is far worse than the storv
of the first revolution in Franco. It
is horrible in the extreme. Murder has
been one of its miuor faults, relatively
speiikjng. Though attempts were made"
to deny outrages against the disters,
they are now admitted; but the worst
of this story has never befti told.
"One hundred and fifty sisters one#
left Mexico City for Vera Cruz during"
the American occupation. The trnin
arrived empty They were taken oil'
by the revolutionists on the way.
"If the United States is to !e the
friend and sister of Mexico to the ad
vantage of both, our citizens must rid
themselves of a multitude of inherited
prejudices, and substitute a spirit of
understanding for a spirit of greed.
There is more to lie had in Mexico thuu
oil and mining concessions. I have no
wish to condemn business enterprise,
but it is poor business that depends
for success on machine guns.
Mexico's Needs
" Mexican;, need 'good givernment,'
and we have tue opportunity now of
giving it to them, by telling them fair
ly and honestly that we will help no
government set. up by thieves, nor any
government that is not founded on the
principles of equal justice to all.
"Mexico needs 'good religion.' She
has the mother church of Christendom,
but chained anil bound by laws that
j were intended, to kill, her Mexico's
history shows that she will accept no
other religion.
I "Mexico needs 'good education.'
| Make every educational work free, un
j der democratic and wise laws. See that
, the teacher is not penalized, his work *
1 destroyed and his endowments seized
Iby rapacious banditti. Give help to
every effort for the instruction of the ■
masses.'' *

danger. The Oanfa arrived about 1
a. ni. to render aid.
About one hundred passengers were
transferred to the Oanfa and arrived at*
Kobe to-day. Among them was Mrs.
Francis Burton Harrison, wife of the
Governor General of the Philippines.
The German governess of the Harrison
children was detained aboard the Oonfa

granted permission for the governess of
the Harrison children to land and the
other German passengers also will be
