IT WAS fortunato on all accountB
that tho Sonato refused 8onator
Lodgo's request to discuss the
pcaco treaties In c-xccutlvo session.
Executive bcsbIous aro only nonll
nally secrot at best, everything that
transpires of Interest Is telegraphed
to tho ends of tho earth on the first
wlro. Officially the Semite is not
responsible, but of what account Is
that when nil of Europe knows what
Is said and in what tone- of voice?
On tho other hand, thero is ovory
reason that here nt homo the country
uhould know why after all these yours
of agitating for International arbi
tration, dofinltu proposals to that
end uro being held up In the Scnnte
for mnendmentH that plainly are In
tended to tnkc tho life out or tho

It la to bo set down to the credit
of tho administration that It wishes

WASHINGTON'S DIRTHDAY.
NCE moro wo proudly celebrate
tne hirinany of a mnn
Who In tho ntorllntr virtue lead
tbo world's Immortal van,
And he commenced that leader
ship when ha was but a youth
By showing ho could fearlessly and ul-
ways apeak the truth.
And now we'll tell the story whlch-no
matter If It's old
Keeps ever Krowlnif brighter Just for be
InK often told.
"When Washington was very small he
from his father not
A hatchet, which no careful pa should
ever Klve a tot.
In consequenco that little boy with
thoushtless vim and Kleo
Went out Into the garden and cut down
a cherry tree.
When his Indulgent father took his morn
ing ftroll ho found
Ills lovely, favorlto cherry tree left life
loss on the ground,
And, picking up a handy branch, "Who
did thin deeUT" he cried.
"Father, I sannot toll u lie. I did It,"
Ooorgo replied,
"Come to my nrms, my noble son!" the
parent called, with Joy.
"I'd rather lose a thousand trees than
have a lying boy."
And thus Oeorge Washington began In
childhood to dhplay
A greatness that ban made the world
revere him for ulwny '
And wear his little hutchet In their but.
tonholes today. '

Barken and hear, for, though thy reign
bojdohe, .
One heart still worships theo beneath

One supplicating volco Mill cries to thee.
t Tlerclng tho night that hides thy perfect
face,
Tearing away the silence and the gloom,
Lo, onco again 1 hob thy bcuuty bloom
And dare to cry thy mercy and thy grace,
A lonely worslilpr, the las( and least,
I lift my voice and call upon thy name.
Beyond the garden of Ilesperldes
I turn my face toward Cyprus and t&e

Hearken, oh, goddess of the fearful flunk;
Hearken, oh. K)prl. risen from the
