! THE PU5UE.
Bsnosr From Infso.ion of Around
Squlrrtl In California.
A few montbi ago Dean Ward, et
the L'nlrerslty ot Nebraska, discover
d while visiting California that th
bubonic plague really menaces the
I'nited States, although the splendid
work done by the government scien
tists caused him to hope that no fur
ther spread of the disease would be
noted. Now some facts whlcb came
to his knowledge on that visit hare
reached the Eastern press in spite of
the efforts made In Ban Francisco to
conceal the real situation. "One seri
ous aspect of the case has developed
la the last two rears," ears Collier's,
In the course of an alarming editorial
0:1 the subject. "Plague has been
discovered in the ground squirrels
about the bar. Now everr effort Is
being made in the Infected district to
conceal the facte. This Is follr. filled
with peril. Mistaken business calcula
tions lead Oakland, which should be
cue of the most active cities to com
t it plague, to refuse appropriations
for that purpose. Tbe danger la one
whir.S can be controlled if It Is recog
nized. Tbe serious menace la caused
by the shortsighted notion that a bus
iness advantage '1 to be gained by
concealment.- If tbe Infected district
will not do their work properly, soon
er or later the whole United States
r ay pay, and' pay a price too terrible
to consider. Lie will not help. Only
sound and .thorough sanitary measure
may save the land. California can
chock the danger now, If she falls
the may later be quarantined by her
sifter States." Nebraska State Jour

As soon as the" Nasaau street tailor

That looks funny,' said one man.
"Vtb avenue.' Isn't that a new wrin
kle?" "Not exactly," (aid the tailor. "Ro

are particularly partial to them. On

Scholar or Athlete.
The athlete o - the scholar? Which
type of. man, does the word want?
That i the query suggested by Presi
dent Hadley ot Yale in an address to
the Harvard winners of scholastic
hci.ors. "Two generation ago the
Intellectual idol of the graduate and
r.tudents at most ot our college was
the leadiLg debater. . Now it 1 no
logger the debater but the athlete
who occupies tbe center ot the stage."
The fact thus stated la apparent
everywhere. The scholar ha small
place in college life. Tbe one who
thinks ot the debater's platform aa a
field of endeavor is counted amiably
uL centric by tbe average student. A
for earnest work with book in the
quiet of the room or in the library,
tbat i laughable. Tbe "midnight
oil" Idea baa a different meaning now
adays.
Must Promls to "Obey.'
"Unless a young lady Is willing to
promise to love, honor and obey,1
said Rev. Albert P. Fitch from hi
puipit In the ML Vernon Congrega
tional Church last night, putting con
siderable emphasis on the word obey,
"I shan't offlciaf at ber wedding.
"They come to me, these young peo
ple, and ask: 'What service do you
useT' - I tell them the Episcopalian
service. Then the girl asks: 'Do I
have to promise to love, honor and
oey?' And the answer Is: 'Yea, if
I am to marry you.'
'If a young man and woman ax
coming to the supreme experience of
t'.eir live and haven't the absolute
trust- In each other, which include the
word 'obey,' then they are not ready
to take the step.".

"Jennie, please give Andrew about
four strawberries."
Jennie proceeaed to fulfill the wish

berries: "Oue, two., three, four."
"I want lire." protested the child.

Nothing in the navigational equip

ot more anxloua clentlflo research or

mariner compass, say tbe Windsor
Magaxln.
The popular notion of the compass
needle alwayi pointing north and
south la well, more inaccurate than
even popular notion usually are.
Even under the moat favorable condi
tions there are only certain places
upon tbe surface of the earth where
tbe compass needle doe point north

tbat auch condition are never found
on board of any ship.
But we must go further and ay
that no more unfavorable position
could be found for a compass than
on board a modern steamship, wblcb
Is a complicated masa of steel, all
tending to draw the compass needle
from Its allegiance to the magnetic
pole of the earth, warring influences
whlcb must needs be counteracted by
all sort of device wblch hedge round
the instrument by an Invisible wall
of conflicting cu rents of magnetism.
And aa. If this were not' enough
there are now huge dynamos to be
reckoned witn producing electric cur

current the poor - little compass
needle, upon which the mariner de
pends for bis guide across the track

Chinese history dates back to 2637
B. C, when tbe people were mad up
into clans or tribes and were ruled by
a sovereign who waa chosen by hi
subject aa the one most worthy to
rule. This waa followed by the feudal
ayatem, which continued for nearly,
twenty centurlea and waa slmllat to
the feudal system In Europe in medie

divided Into seven- great states and
each a'ate waa conten ling for the
supremacy. In 221 B. C, the king 4
Tasing waa victorious and he assumed
the title of Hwang Ti. or Emperor.
