The Russian who is “tired of

a stroll through the streets of St.
Petersburg.
There does not seem to be any
home reason against, the Czar now
•carrying out bis original disarma¬
ment proposition.
Russia refuses to derive any
consolation from the arguments of
4he people who insist that a nation

Mr. Frick’s report in brief is,

If business doesn't soon pick up,

The corporation magnate is al

going to be “iuitircal to the inter¬

Tho report that the male mem¬
bers of the Mass. Vegetarian Soci¬

probably a malicious canard.
A Chicago woman aays that
children should be paid five cents

The St. Louis Republic has been
running a series of articles on
“The Part the Smiths Have Played

Sympathy for the Chicago era

the face of convincing testimony
that it was one of their practices
to bribe teamsters of rival con¬
cerns to go on a strike.
Mr. Hearst declares that he
does not want to be mayor of New
York, and as he says it in capital
letters his decision is probably
final. Billy would rather be the
« 4 rouster” than the mayor.
rin- Cowboy wolf-catcher of Ox
lahoma, John Abernathy, has been
appointed a deputy United States
Marshall. Abernathy hunted with
the President, and proved himseif

Just another inducement to col¬

Kansas jfatmer’s daughter gives

Even the “danger” that some
enthusiastic Oregonians might
mention him for the presidency in
1908, could not deter Mr. Fair¬

position since “duty called him. to
do so.”
It would have seemed more ap¬

The Atlanta Constitution is
having something to say about
“missionary efforts to lead the

fort Mr. Rockefeller recently sub¬

We note considerable anxiety in
t he columns of t lie Galveston News
for the immediate retirement of
some of tbe Chicago University
professors. The danger that some
might start magazines as Triggs
did, is overlooked.
The first Cabinet meeting held
after the return of the President
was devoted to discussion of the
President’s hunting trip. Is it to
be inferred that there was discus¬
sion of the “trip” merely, or dis¬
cussion of the “verities” of the
Executive's account?
While ex-Judge Parker is eulog¬
izing lawyers as truly great and
good men, District Attorney Je¬
rome, of N. Y,, is indicting fif¬

unusual.
The railroad commissioners of
Kansas have ordered the Union
Pacific to reduce its rates on grain.
Now we must have finding from
some source declaring the Kansas
railroad commissioners an illegal

Capt. Hobson announces his can¬
didacy for Congress against Col.
Bankhead. That “burnt child
dreads the fire” adage does not
seem to have properly impressed
Hobsou. Hobson does not care
any more about a “snow under”
than a “blow up.”
The Universiry of Nebraska is
about to spend $30,000 in equip¬

else why the $2 98 shirtwaist? It
is the men who recklessly pay out
the full $3.00 that should be given
a university training in economy.

LANTERNS fif
THE SOUL
By SIDNEY ■. COLE
Co n -right. 1006, by T. C. JicClura
In the library of the villa the
men faced each other. The little red
shaded lamp dimly lighted the big, lux
dots in the blue velvet sky.
Orne senior lifted his piercing black
eyes and looked at hts son searchlngly
”You’re a common ne'er do well," he
buret out, "a gambler, a loafer, u rake.
You squander u fortune at the gaming
tables and come whining to me for
more money to lose. Get your money
where you lost It. I’m through with
you.”
Young Orne drew himself up. “Fa¬
ther”— he began.
"I'm done with you,” the older man
thundered. "I wash my hands of you.
As God Is my Judge, I'll cut you oft
without a cent. Go out into the world
and 3tand on your own feet or sink
into the mire of ruin you’ve been delv
lug in. It’s all one to me.”
Young Orne strode silently to the
door, turned, hesitated, then hurried
through the hall luto the soft uight
without. The last streak of red was
gone from the west. Far below him at
the foot of the slope the little village
was uglearn with lights. He noticed
that even in the trees tiny luminous
pin points of light shone steadily. Then
he remembered that It was St. John's
eve and that the lights were a part of
the fiesta.
Ho descended the steps and strode
across the terraces and through the
villa gardens. As ho came to a group
of olive trees Just beyond the sundial
he saw dimly a girlish flgure standing
beneath one of the trees. There was
the rasp of a match, a tiny Chinese
lantern was lighted, and lu its mellow
glow he saw plainly the girl's upturned
face as she reached up to fasten the
lantern to a low hanging branch. It
was Etbelyn Hope, the daughter of
las father's oldest friend, who had made
her home with the Ornes since her par¬
ents’ death. That was years back,
when Ethelyn was a little girl in
frocks. Now she was eighteen, tall,
graceful and sweet alike iu feature and
iu temper.
Young Orne came luto the little circle
of light cast by the lantern. There was
an old stone seat beneath that particu¬
lar olive tree, and he sank Into It.
“Celebrating?" be asxed.
“Yes,” " said, pointing to the lan
tern, "It Is a little lafltera of the
soul.”
A what.' he asked in iaughiug per
plexity.
“A little lantern of the soul,” she re
pen ted. \ou hang them on olive trees
nud say little prayers for the souls
thej' represent. 1 heard Pietro and
the cook talking about them today. I
made them explain."
“1 see,” said he. “Who’s soul Is
this?" And he pointed to the lantern.
“I haven’t decided as yet," she said,
and added quickly, "I think it will be
yours.”
“By all means let It be so," he ac¬
quiesced. “Heaven knows I’m sadly
in need of pious prayers just now."
“Are you iu trouble?" she asked.
“Have you and Unde Orne been quar¬
reling again?"
He smiled with ironic bitterness.
“Oh. there's beou a slight tin!” he said
easily.
“That Is bad,” she said, with ready
sympathy.
“It ended by—by—well, to use bold
words, by his kicking me out,” said be.
Her face became serious. "lie didn't
rosily mean it, of course. He'll be sor
ry before morning."
“I hope so," he said. “You eau let me
know if ho Is,” he ended lightly.
“I let you know?" she said, frightened
by his tone. “You’re not—not really
going r
Orue’s face darkened. All the ran¬
kling bitterness his father’^ words had
inspired was upon him again.
“I may la all he oalloil me and
more,” lie said, with an ominous calm¬
ness, “but J «till have some pride left.
I have to be shovvu the door but once."
The girl’s hands trembled violently
as she leauod against tbe olive tree.
Orne. with ids head bowed sullenly, did
not notice this. When he raised his
eyes she was still leaning against the
tree, fie saw a strange new light In
her eyes, and all at once he realized
that she was no longer a child, but s
woman and that her womon’s heart
was his. The fact that, there was love
in his own heart was as much of a
shock to him as the discovery of this
answering love In hers. He could have
cried out with the joy and pain of it
He rose to his feet pale and shaken
“I must be going.” he said roughly.
“Going?” she asked blankly. "Going
where?”
He laughed harshly. “;' ve an the
world to choose from," he said bitterly.
He „ drew , , her gently to him. For
