THE TIMES.
A mnn never renlly 1kkIii8 to live un
til he Ih (lend In love.
Being n gcntlenmn Is the most dlUI
colt thing In the world.
Death haH turned out to be n Hue
rncchorBC. Death wIiih In the end.
It's a striking coincidence that tho
things a hoy likes to throw at break
easiest.
A little luck nnd n fool's Ignorance
have Hindu many a line reputation for
bravery.
Ood seldom looks Into tho house
where there are no little linger murks
on the walls.
It seems that In China It Is not "tho
mau behind tho gun," but tho woman
behind the screen.
The shrines of tho people nro tho
birthplaces of the great poets. Not ono
f them Is a palace.
The vegetarians say a man may llvo
a hundred years on vegetables and cold
water. Hut Is It worth while?
The redoubtable King of 81am really
doesn't know how large his family Is.
He catalogues only llrst editions.
It must ho admitted as we go along
that Minster Wit Is a mnn who Is thor
oughly on to the curves of his Job.
King I'M ward faces tho wrong way
on the now Hrltlsh postago stamp. Wo
feared that tho excitement would turn
his head.
Wo can readily bellovo that the na
tion's capital, among other things, bar
born typhoid and grip germs, but lock
jawnever. When .Miss Husau H. Anthony says
there are too many children born Into
the world she has reference more par
ticularly to hoys.
Marconi Is passing through one or the
stages necessary to undying fame as an
Inventor. Tho Paris savants deny that
b la an Inventor at all.
An enormous Increase In Kuglaud's
atlonal debt Is noted, Indicating that
John Hull Is not getting anything In
Bouth Africa at reduced rates.
When thcro Is a lull of a week be
tween battles on tho Isthmus ono never
knows whether It Is a new revolution
started or ono of the old ones brought
back to life.
i An Eastern professor says tho peoople
f this country are working themselves
to death. Has ho over looked around
tbo olllce when a baud was marching
down tho street?
Chicago contractors aro going to clo
tHto her trains that run through tho
Btflok Yards for JfL'.OOO.OOO. Western
trains are frequently held up for a
twentieth part of that sum.
Love used to laugh at locksmiths, but
by considering Now York's fashionable
weddings wo may learn that the little
goil has como to have great respect
for the combination of tho safe,
A sufferer complains that tho mince
pie of commerce contains prunes which
aro thus palmed off on the public as nil
Ins. "The Mystery of the Mlueo"
grows deeper with the passage of the
aims.
President Oilman of the Carnegie In
stitute speaks the solemn truth when
hu observes that the giving of degrees
lii this country Is overdone and that
tho oxtcnt of It Is ridiculous. It Is rea
sonably safe to anticipate that the In
stitution over which hu presides will
not make tho practice more so.
If It were not for tho American wom
en, especially the college women or
those who have been educated In other
ways, American llfo nt tho threshold
of tho busy twentieth century with
"Trade" as Its omnipresent ami allur
ing motto In this strenuous nation
would bo dull, monotonous, sordid and
without uplifting tendencies.
Telephone: Use your head to save
your legs," one lawyer recently advised
another. "Oh," was thu reply, "I use
my legs to save my head. If I walk
ttvo blocks and get tho papers Into my
wn hands, 1 shall not be worrying tho
next three hours lest they aro not de
livered In time, or are wrong when they
are delivered. Incidentally, I shall
walk off a headache, and derive all the
beuetlts of an expensive gymnasium
without going there."
It will take time, but the nations, on
after another, will round out the defini
tion of their respective attitudes to
ward tho United States In the Spanish
war, and according to present Indica
tions, when the testimony Is all In, It
will signify that wo had more friends
among them than wo thought. At the
outset same of them had queer ways
of showing It, but wo have forgotten
all that and uro now glad to see them
rallying u round us In such a generous
manner.
During tho past tweuty-tlve years tho
Aro loss In the United States which has
ben made good by tho Insurance com
Mantes has exceeded ?'J,SOO,000. There
iiave been many years when tho com
panics generally hnvo made money,
but for a number of years their louses
have been enormous, beginning with
1808, tho losses for the country have
been each year: For 1808, $110,050,600;
for 18JH), $130,773,200; for 1000, $103.
30'J,S50, and for 1001, about $105,000.
000. There must be some remedy for
this. The public Is not prepared for
nn Increase of rates to cover propor
tionate losses In tho future. There Is
no assuranco that losses will be lest
and nobody adequately explains why
they should have so enormously In
creased within a few years.
A professor In a Western university
lately made n list of the best-hated
words In tho English languago by as
certaining the dislikes of a large num
ber of correspondents. It seems that
tho most unpopular word Is "victuals."
Of course It Is merely a matter of taste.
That Is to say, victuals do not taBte so
good as food. Hawthorne mny have
felt the antipathy to tho word when
ho wrote that no sort of "victuals"
seemed to come nmlss to his pig. On
the other hand, Tennyson sings of a
falr-halred youth who In his hand j
"hnre victual for tho mowers." Per
haps the singular Is less obnoxious
than the plural, Just as the verb, to
victual, seems to bo In better repute
than the noun. Meanwhile we can en
Joy the thing without mentioning Its
bud name.
A book recently Issued by It. T. Crane
of Chicago revives the old, old contro
versy concerning tho vnlue of a college
or academy education to a young man
who has to earn his own living and
who expects to pursue an Industrial or
commercial vocation. Mr. Crane's
book has provoked u spirited rejoinder
from tho pen of another Chlcagoau, A.
C. Hartlett. In gathering tho data for
his hook Mr. Crano sent Inquiries to
hundreds of business men, college and
university presidents and college grad
uates. It uppears that tho testimony
as a rule was In favor of n college edu
cation, but this evidence was largely
discredited by Mr. Crane, who drew
deductions that were unfavorable to
college training as a preparation for
business. Ho noted tho fact that many
of tho business men were Inclined to
place a high value on tho mental disci
pline obtained In college llfo and ob
served that with ono or two exceptions
none of the gentlemen who responded
to his Inquiries make n point of em
ploying college graduates In his busi
ness. The college men who replied to
Mr. Crane's questions concerning tho
value of the higher training to them
In business seemed In his opinion to be
prompted by u spirit of loyalty to their
alma mater to say a good word for col
lege education, while ho Infers that
tho large number who refrained from
answering had been unsuccessful In
business nnd feared that an acknowl
edgment of this fact would bo used to
tho disadvantage of colleges. Itegard
less of the valtio of such data as that
collated by Mr. Crane Jt would seem
that both he and his critic were guilty
of fundamental error regarding tho
purpose of tho higher education. They
seem to have entirely missed tho point
that knowledge Is valuable because It
Is knowledge and that Its value does
not necessarily consist In the ability
of Its possessor to convert It Into tho
"coin of tho realm." As Mr. Hartlett
says, there Is more happiness In know
ing things than In having things,
Kuowledgo and the higher education
are worth acquiring for their own sake.
If every college graduate In tho laud
for a hundred years died without ac
cumulating property, or even died poor
In this world's goods, It would not con
stitute an argument against college
education. As a matter of fact, how
ever, any training that disciplines,
broadens and enriches tho mind, as
university or college training does,
must supply a better equipment for
grappling readily and successfully with
the problem of existence, whether In
tho learned professions or In tho do
ixirtiuent of commercial endeavor. It
Is not the primary function of u college
to show a man how to mnke money.
Those llurinlos-i Soldiers.
Iteccntly a soldier was discussing
politics In a tobacconist's shop with
two red-hot nunrehlsts.
"Tell us," they asked him, "If one day
the down-trodden worklngmen were to
revolt, would you bo ono to tiro on
them?"
"1? Never!"
"Hmvo! You nro a true eomrndel
Hero, master, bring us some of your
best cigars; wo must make our gallant
sympathiser n present."
Tho box was brought, and at their
request tho Tommy tilled his pockets
with choice Havanns.
Then one of tho anarchists put an
other question to tho bravo soldier, tho
friend of the people:
"How many men, bravo fellows llko
yourself, etui wo count on In tho bar
racks?" ho asked.
"All tho band-they will nil act ns
myself. I play on the big drum, you
know," ho casually remarked, and,
blowing a cloud of smoke Into the air,
he Avalked out. Ixmdon Answers.
