'Grnduntlon from tho Nnvnl Acnd piny at Annapolis Is not n preroululto to whining n commission In tho navy. Not long ngo iituo enlisted men wero promoted to tho rnnk of ensign, having shown thouiHolvcs flt for service along with thoHO who had hnil tho formal training of tho Nnvnl Academy, The promotions wero mnde under a recent act of Congress, which authorizes tho Kccrotnry of the Navy to recommend to thoVrcsldeut not inoro thnn twelve men each year from among the bout swnlus, gunners or warrant ofllcers whom he considers cnpnblo of perform ing tho duties of ensign. The men so promoted nre In lino to bocomo rear ndinlmlH, or even admirals. Many church orgnuUntlons rognrd divorce as tho most serious menace to society. From tho attention which they glvo to tho subject It Is apparent that they cotiHlder It of mora impor tance than any other sourco of genera!

Writers In favor of n reform present statistics which nppenl, but which are followed by others Hhowlug thnt tho reformers oxuggernte. It Is, full time, therefore, thnt somebody should collect nccurnto statistics. A resolution Introduced In tho United States Sennto Imposes this duty on tho census bureau and In cludes tho record of mnrrhiges also. This mensura would nt least have tho merit of securing soma figures which could be accepted as having authority. Rev. Dr. Savngo's prescription for tired business or professional men who can not take a vacation Is not new, but U Is Just as valunblo as If It wore now. Ho advises such men to "cultlvnto a new Interst." Some people have as sumed thnt this means "rtde a hobby," but a "uow Interest" need not bo n hobby or a fad. A new Interest may be a new business, a now occupation, b new diversion or n new study, Ev ery man who has more than "one string to his bow" Is mensurnbly pro tected against tho utter weariness, tho lutolloctunl and nervous exhaustion which overtakes 4.1m who follows a rut from year's end to year's end. Most men are narrow In their views of life. They know only a few things, and when they have exhausted those things they nre nt tho end of Uielr resources. The man who knows a certain bust ness or profession thoroughly Is likely 'to know little else. He hns hud no time to acquire other things of a char acter calculated to diversify his thought. It follows that when ho wearies of the endless routine of his chosen calling he faces Intellectual bankruptcy. The possession of an al ternative of some kind is Insurance against tho blues agnlnst wenrlnesB of llfo and brnln fag. It mas.es small difference what It may be. Almost anything will furnish tho desired dis traction. It will divert tho mind from tho dally grind, tho unending tread mill. Tho unanimous decision of the Su premo Court of tho United States sus taining Judge Grosscup's Injunction in tho enso of the Chicago packing com panies Is of Importance not only In tho application of the nntt-tnut law to thoso companies but In lta application to Industrial companies and combina tions generally. Its lmportanco In this respect Is duo to tho fact tunc in n measure It establishes n definition of Interstate commerce. In n decision ren dered years ngo tho court held, In sub stance, thnt manufacturing was not In terstate commerce; that the operations of manufacture were necessarily local and therefore could not bo regarded as commercial. It was generally infer red thnt concerns cngnged In manufac turing were not engaged In Interstate commerce nnd therefore were not sub ject to tho provisions of tho anti-trust Inw. Tho present decision In effect declares that concerns engaged In man ufacturing may also ho engaged In In terstate commerce and therorore mny bo subject to tho provisions of thnt Inw. Speaking of tho decision, Judge Grosscttp snys: "Tho substanco of tho caso presented to the Circuit Court wns whether tho purclinso or enmo from sellers living In different States to nmnufneture Into dressed ments nnd tho sale of such meats to purchasers In different States constituted InterHtato commerce." Tho general doctrlno thus established, that nil such transactions constitute Interstate commerce, Is plainly of pretty wldo application. As President Hoosovclt remarked In his Philadelphia speech, "All great busi ness concerns are engaged In Interstate commerce." This Is as true, only In somowhnt less degree, of great con cerns engaged In tho manufacturing business as of great concerns In mer cantile business. Tho former, llko tho latter, are both buying and selling In different States, and this part of their business Is by tho constitution subject to regulation by Congress. If In con .ltiotlnir thin nnrt of their business they vlolnto the provisions of tho Shorman law thoy are subject to Its penalties as much as they would bo If their busi ness was wholly mcrcautllo. Judge Grosscup Is right In saying that tho decision "fortifies tho Sherman act" and that "It Is a long'step in tho direc tion of effectual government supervis ion." Ho may be mistaken, however, In tho opinion that "tho organization nnd supervision by tho nation Itself of tho grcst corporations of the future" will follow aa a natural nnd logical sequence. If It results In minimizing tho hurtful restraint of trade tho coun try will hnve reason enough to rejoice. Han Franolsco'a Climate. In San Francisco they are telling n story Hint Is worth repetition, nnd will bo nppreclnted by those who havo en countered tho climate of the Golden Gato Olty, says tho Philadelphia Press Sunday Mngnzlnc. An Irlshmnn camo to America to visit. Ho wns a truo sou or Erin, with an Irish appreciation of all things beautiful. Ho went to Han Francisco for a sight-seeing trip, and whllo strolling through tho city with n friend, ex claimed: "What folno trees! So green I What makes It 7" "(.'lluiote," answered tho friend, briefly. A little later ho cried out: "Arrnhl the complexions of your Indies. So beautiful! What" "Climate," Interrupted tho friend, The Irishman subsided for u whllo. Now, San Francisco Isn't exactly a prairie, and not many moments jmssed until the two encountered ono of tho small mountains they call knolls out there. "Hegorra," said the visitor, "nnd how d'ye think OTui going to get up that?" "Climb it," said the friend. Tho Irishman stopped nnd looked nt his companion. "Tho divll yo say? Seems to mo lverythlug Is cllmuto out here." Tim ChftiiKO or a Name. How family names change In the course of many years Is Illustrated by tho conversation of "Hotovllo" Into "Thymic." An English deed bearing date In the closing days of tho fifteenth century shows threo brothers thon flourishing John llotevllle, of Iloto vllle, and Thomas and William Iloto vllle. The trio are distinguished from all other llotevlles by the explanation "of tho Inne," or family rwldence, tho title to which had come to their Joint powicsslon, John's grandson was known iih llalph Hotovllc-of-the-lnne, from which the transition to Italph Thyune Is easy, His descendants havo been Thynues ever since. Deaf nit Adder. The expression "deaf as an adder" Is from tho Psalms of David, where It appears In the following form: "Their poison Is like the poison of serpents. They are like the deaf adder that stop ped! her ear, which will not barken to tho voice of charmers, charming ever so wisely." Fast Indian travels tell us that there Is a widely prevailing supcrntltutJou lu tho east to tho effect that both the viper and tho asp stop their ears when tho charmer Is utter lug his incantations or playing his music by turning one ear to the ground and twisting tho point of tho tall Into tho other.

A publication relating to the Lewis and Clark expedition. Just issued by a. P. Putnam's Sons. New York, atanda peculiarly alone. This edition Is a two yol ume, 8 vo one called "The Trail of Iewta and Clark, 180MXM". The author, Mr. Olln D. Wheeler, Is the well known wrltr of the popular Wonderland series of the Northern Pacific Railway, In connection with which he made his studies and researches for this work. Mr, Wheeler has traveled several thousand miles over the route of Lewis and Clark. He has camped out, climbed mountains, followed old Indian trails, and visited remote points made memorable by those explorers. Their route across the Dlttcrroot mountains has been followed, Identified and mapped. "The Trail of Lewis and Clark" la Illustrated In color and half tone from paintings, drawings and maps, by Paxson, DeCamp, and Russell, made under Mr. Wheeler's direction, and from photographs taken specially for the purpose. Tho writer tells his own story and supplements It with pertinent extracts from Lewis and Clark, and a host of other historical and narrative writers that connect the past! with the present. Exact excerpta and photographlo reproductions, in half tone, from the Original Manuscript Journals of Lewis and Clark are given. A. chapter Is devoted to the Louisiana Purchase, another to the preparatory meas ures for the exploration, and another to the history of each man of the expedi tion so far as known, including a discussion of the death of Captain Lewis. The Louisiana Purchase Exposition at St Louis, and the Lewis and Clark Centennial to be held at Portland, Oregon, in 1906, make this work peculiarly timely because written from the standpoint of actual knowledge of past and pres ent conditions of the old troll and country.
