V
THE EW AGE, POItTIi AJSD, OREGON.
TOPICS OF
THE TIMES.
In addition to the rcndy money, Olilnn
!s expected to ko-tow to tho rest of the
universe for yenrs to couip.
The nlm of a person who given a toy
rlflo to a boy mny be nil right, but It's
the lad's cureless aim that may do the
damage.
In case Prlnco fchowfa Mahn Vajrla
vudh decides to visit this country we
shall Insist upon him having his name
manicured.
Ono bunilng question has grown cold
nnd been laid nway upon the historical
shelf. Everybody Is now agreed wo
arc In the twentieth century.
Judging from that prune studlng In
cident some excellent boarding house
managerial Uileut has been wasted In
the making of some ordinary cadets.
According to the Hon. ThoninS U.
Itecd, a triiBt Is "a body of very rich
men entirely surrounded by water."
The definition undoubtedly (Its some
trusts.
It has been discovered by scientists
that hiccoughs may bo stopped by
smoking a cigar. The next time tho
baby gets them you muy know Just
what to do.
Ono West Point cadet declared his
opinion that hazing there wns not as
bad as football. Probably It nlso has
omo humane advantages over shooting
tho Niagara rapids In a barrel.
In dcllulng a political candidate ns
"a man who Is asked to stand, wnuts
to lit, and Is expected to lie," Winston
Spencer Ohurclilll, M. P hns nicely
preserved tho balance between wit ami
fact
During 1000 nearly luilf a million for
elguers decided that the United Htates
of America Is the best place on earth to
enjoy life. If wo do say It who should
n't, they made a remarkably good
guess
Tho confession of the Chicago Wom
an's Oluli that men are poor hands at
conversation because thu women Insist
upon doing all the talking Is not only
candid but obviously true. Tho hon
esty and perspicacity of tho Woman's
Club are bound to win for It a place
among the leading Intellectual organi
sations of the world.
After nil the discussions ns to the best
method of preventing lynching tho
placing of thu responsibility on tho
ahcrlff must bo pclcutcd up the best.
Hotter than public sentiment or gulling
Kiwis lu the Jail Is a sheriff who Is de
termined to protect his prisoner If ho
Is obliged to shoot down a dozen of the
"best citizens" of his county. When
lynchlngs become costly to the sherltT
nnd to his bondsmen there will be less
lynchlngs.
We belluvu sincerely that crime and
Immorality among the lowly mid weak
of will have their oilglu to a great ex
tent lu the unpunished offenses of an
other class who owe to thu world n good
example, but glvu u bad examplu In
atead. Theru Is no usu for thu social
missionary to go among the Ignoble to
restrain and admonish them when they
know that thu sphere whence tho mis
sion Issues Is dollied by thu practices
which In them are rebuked.
Tho agu Is progressive, productive,
materialistic. It alms not at thu Ideal,
but at thu practical, not at thu highest
development of the few, but at thu
highest happiness of the greatest num
ber. Its object Is thu welfare of tho
avernge man, and It naturally desires
that he bhall get thu beiiellt of Its exer
tions before he dies. Therefore the agu
'gets a move on" and preaches tho gos
pel of "hustle." Tho result Is benu
tidal to the average man to thu great
" est number.
A movement Iiiih been begun by sev
eral art Institutes lu this country to
check the exodus of American art stu
dents especially girl students-to
I'nrls. It lias the approval of Ameri
can artists of established reputation
men who have studied lu Paris, lived In
thu I.atlu Quarter, nnd know thu un
wholesome conditions existing therein.
They assert that facilities for thu tlrst
training lu art are as good lu America
as lu Paris, If not butter. For a proper
appreciation and use of the rich collec
tions of art which exist lu I.urope, pre
liminary training Is necessary, and that
can be obtained at home. "To go abroad
for a postgraduate course," said one of
tho most celebrated of these artists, "Is
all right, but by no mean for a begin
ner. Thu I.atlu Quarter Is vile," ho
added.
College football, during the past sen
ou, had no worthier representatives
than the students of thu Carlisle Indian
School, lu the essentials of manliness
and sportsmanlike conduct generally.
Tho games In which they engaged were
at tunny and us tlercely contested us
those of any other college team, and
the spectators, lu some Instance., were
uelther so considerate nor to sympa
thetic ns they might have been. Vet
their games were exhibitions of clean,
otrulght football such ns nil true lov
ers of the sport like to see. The um
pire's decisions were never onco titles
tloucd, nnd their defeats were accepted
with the spirit of men who had done
their best, and who had, therefore,
neither excuses nor explanations to
ffur. They hae won a place for
themselves In the regard of many who
would rejoice In their success In other
fields where the rewards arc less lleet
lng than those of football.
Various reasons are given for the fact
that married people us a rule live longer
than the unmarried. The Literary Di
gest contains an Interesting extract
from an article on this subject by Dr.
Prluzlng, a German scientist. Dr.
Printing shows that the married are
healthier than the unmarried, and ex
posed to fower dangers. The mutual
care of husband and wife for each
other, and of the children for their par
ents, If there be children, and various
other factors are noted ns making for
long life among married people. Hut
one Important factor lu prolonging life
Is not mentioned, though It Is probably
the most Important, namely, the will
to live, which Is much more powerful
with a man or woman on whom others
nre Intimately dependent. How often
will n man or a woman threatened with
Illness tight against nnd overcome It,
for tho snko of the murltnl partner or
the helpless children; whereas a single
person would probnbly glvo up to the
attnek. This Idea that sickness nnd
perhaps death can be postponed by n
determined effort on the part of the In
dividual Is gaining ground, nnd the un
doubted power of mental action over
bodily conditions lends It strong sup
port. We aru still only at the threshold
of knowledge on the subject. Hut the
fncts already noticed show that It Is a
subject worthy of our most thorough
Investigation.
Tho court of Imiulry nt tho West
Point Military Academy to Investigate
tho charge that thu death of Cadets
Hooz and Hreth was duo to hazing
brought out some Interesting evidence
ou tho methods of hazing lu general
use among tho cadets. Absolute truth
fulness Is demanded by one of the un
written laws of honor among them,
nnd thu telling of an untruth would be
followed by ostracism. It mny, there
fore, bo assumed that tho evidence
given by cutlets before this court Is
accurate as regards facts, but It Is not
necessarily rellnhlo In mutters of opin
ion. Thu endets appear to bo quite
unanimous lu thu opinion that the
methods of hazing In vogue nt the
nucdemy are nofliriitnl. Ou this point
thu public will be Inclined to dllTer
from them. Among the methods used
by thu tipper cluss men to amuse them
selves nt thu expense of the fourth
eluss men Is that of "feet Inspection,"
which consists lu dropping hot caudlo
grease ou thu bnru feet of the victim.
New cadets are nlso compelled to run
down thu company streetH while the
men on both sides empty buckets of
wnter on them. This Is cnlled "taking
a bath." Other ordeals to which fourth
clnss men aru subjected are "bracing,"
or standing lu an exaggerated soldierly
position; "eagllng," or ntnudlng on tip
too; 'wooden Willie," or drilling to tho
point of e.xhnustlqn. Milder forms of
hazing consist lu 'numerous ridiculous
ordeals, Mich as requiring n man to
stand on his head In n bathtub half
full of water, or In making him stand j
on his head, speak n piece, mid deliver
u right-hand salute with his left foot. J
Thu list extends through n picturesque i
variety of Items to such harmless
tricks as naming tho new men after,
different barnyard animals and com-,
polling them to Imitate the noises made
liy tho uuliunls. Thu cadets assert,. there
Is nothing brutal In any of these forms (
of hazing. They admit that If a cadet (
refuses to perform any of these things
I HI will III! l"lllllri'lll-ll III 1IKHI, Willi Hie
chance In favor of his being vigor
ously pounded. This Is what happened
to Itonz. Whether these things nre
brutal or not muy be n mutter of opin
ion, but It Is clear that tho victim's
opinion might differ from that nf tho
lingers. "Uncomfortable" would cer
tainly be rather a mild word to apply
to some of these ordeals, nnd even
compelling n man to stand on his head,
while It may not bo brutal, Is hardly
desirable or lu accordance with tho
plans of nature. Col. Mills, superin
tendent of the academy, snys the more
Injurious forms of hazing described lu
this Inquiry have been abandoned for
tho Inst two years, while thu others nre
Indulged lu against orders. The Insti
tution would lose nothing valuable If
the cadets were to abandon hazing nl
together. It Is a relic of barbarism at.
best.
He Was In Demand, (
A merchant who lives on the upper
West Side of the city was uwnkcucd I
nt ii o'clock the other inoinlng by the1
continued ringing of his front door bell.
Ho tried to go to sleep despite the noise, '
but had to abandon the attempt when
a series of shouts coming from (ie
street In front of his limine assailed his
ears. Mingled with the shouts he heard
thu voices of men engaged lu a war of '
words. Jumping out of bed he ran to,
a window, threw it open and leaned
out. Theru were live men on the street, '
nnd seeing hlmthey begun to yell with I Q
renewed vigor. I
"What Is wrong?" shouted the mer
chant. The ll vo tried to reply at the
sumo time and tho only word the mer
chant understood was "1-Mre."
"What Is wrongV" ho shouted again.
One of the live gut his voice before the
others.
"Your store has burned out," he
screamed, "and I'll give you $3 more
than anybody else for the privilege ol
pasting blls ou the front of your build
