BRYAN PLEASED
WITH MESSAGE
Commoner Declares Presi
dent Has Taken Brave
Stand at Right Time.
By Paul Villlers.
Parlg. Feb. 1. M. Eugene Lau
j tier, the distinguished "collabora
i tor" of the well-known Paris paper'
Le Figaro Is one of the few French
Journalists who does not believe In
the supposed war-like designs of
Japan.
"If Japan were getting ready for
war, she would not be scattering her
energies the way she does," he
writes In a current number of tho
paper. "She Is BimpI seeking an
outlet for ber surplus population
in neighboring and laying the foun
dation of a commercial empire.
"In Manchuria tho activity or
Japan is Increasing every day. In
the southern part where Russia has
ceded the railroads Japan has dur
ing the last few months established
39 new telegraph stations in spite
of China's protests. Aroused by
this the Russian government has
declared that it intends to follow
Japan's example in northern Manchuria."
The United States will think
twice before they begin a war with
Japan, whose navy has been tried
and found not wanting. They will
not commit the mistake of consid
ering the mikado's navy a quantlte
negleble as did Russia, first because
It would be wrong and second be
cause It would be dangerous.
Leopold In Trouble.
King Leopold . of Belgium may
find It hard to answer his subjects
who are Inquiring of what right he
is using the revenues of the Congo
state to pay the expenses of his
over-charging mistresses.
Money wrested from the natives
of the Congo is said to have paid for
the castle which Leopold gave as a
Christmas present to Baroness
Vaughan.
Mrs. George Jay Gould shows that histrionic talent has been by no
means abated by her long absence from the stage. She recently played
in a sketch at the Plaza hotel, for charity, and showed all her old bril
liancy as an actress. The picture shows Mrs. Gould and Kyrle Bellew
as they appeared in the sketch.

Wilmington, Del., Peb. 1. W. J.
Bryan is pleased with the president s
message. Referring to It he said:
"It is a brave message and needed
at this time. All friends of reform
have reason to relnlm that thn n r as I -
dent has used his high position to call 1
mention to tne wrongs tnat need to
be remedied. He has discovered the
running sore in our national life. He
has pointed out the corruMinsr influ
ences that flow from nrndatorv m'nalfh
ana irom tne monopolistic enternrlseit
H.UIW 1 1 - . . . "
The troupe of Sicilian actors and
actresses who were recently charm
ing America nas reached and con
quered Paris. The Theatre Marigay
opened its doors to them; their "sea
son" being under the direction of
M. Lugme-Poe.
The Impresario and chief com
edian of the troupe began his dra
matic career as showman of Arfo
nettes at a popular theatre at Cat
ania, and he put bo much expression,
passion and pathos into these per
formances that the famous tragedi
an Bossl said to him one day;
Throw all this rubbish into the fir
and act yourself. Show what there
is in you."
Grasso, which is the leader's name,
followed the advice so well meant,:
chose a company and started in Cat
ania. He was encouraged to go fur
ther afield and visited Rome and
at rising and going to bed they
would not spoil them.
Sugar is a caloric, or heater and
a pound of sugar in sweetmeat form
consumed by one person each day
is calculated to be sufficient to keep
up the bodily heat. Some reserva
tions, nowever, were made by the
doctors in regard to chocolate which
contains a greater amount of fatty
matter than sugar.
In deed Jhere is more fatty sub
stance used In the manufacture of
chocolate than In cocoa, Its essen
tial basis.
Chocolate should never be eaten
by people inclined to dyspepsia, kid
ney troubles or Bluggish liver, al
though a moderate amount is not
harmful.

German Wpit Asleep in
June, 190, and Has Not
Yet Awakened.
Berlin, Feb. 1. Professor Eulenburg,
tne eminent specialist In nervous dls
eases, this afternoon gave a remark
able description before the German
Physiological association here of a gov
ernment official named Arnhelm, who
nas neen continuously asleep since June
19,, 1904.
Th$ professor attributes Arnhelm's
strange condition to a blow on the back

revealed to the audience, without
any of the northern and Saxon re
serve which obtains eVen on the
stage, is the most astonishing part
of tha acting of these people. Grasso
is the personification of unveiled
"humanity."
As great as himself and taking a
large share in the reputation they
have made, is his leading woman,
Slgnora Miml Agualia, who is a su
perb actress, reminding one of a
Duse, but more of the people. The
plays they present are mostly lovely
and vigorous dramas of Sicilian chiv
alry, full of laughter, anger, love,
tears, voluptuousness, hatred, frenzy
and violence.
The Sicilian dramas made humid,
as a French critic says, by the tears
of Mlmi Agualia and brightened by
the laughter of Giovanni Grasso, re
flect in their intensity "the whole
rainbow of human passions."
Candy Beneficial. (
Paris physicians have come to the
conclusion that sweets are not half!
as bad as they are painted that is
to say that candy, far from being so
deleterious to the humanNjrganlsm,
as some hold, is on the other hand,
beneficial to the organism and acts
as a kind of human fuel, helping to
sustain the heat of a person's body.
It was at a dinner of physicians.
most of whom are also qualified as
dentists, that a discussion arose on
this subject and the decision was
come to. One of them remarked
that he always noticed a great in
crease in cases of dental caroslty
among children ln the holidays, ow
ing to their over-indulgence In
sweets.
The practitioners all agreed, how
erer, that except ln the case of per
sons suffering from diabetes or dys
pepsia, it is not. nearly" so harmful
as Is generally supposed and that if

JEWS PLAN BOYCOTT

B'nai B'rith Favors Plan to
Halt Caricaturing of
Race on Stage.
Amidst so much theorizing as what
ought to be done to 'purify' college ath- j
letlcs, it Is comforting to have one man
actually do something. Every now and
again some college faculty Incumbent
mounts the rostrum and damns ath
letics from A to Z. without giving a
solitary practical suggestion or himself
taking one helpful step toward u de
sired end.
President Tucker of Dartmouth, at
the beginning of the 1907 football sea
son, also ascended the rostrum. Mr.
Tucker said not a great deal, but what
he did say was pertinent and convinc

"He said further that he considered

or for their laundry, or for any other
form of return, direct or Indirect, were
in fact bartering their athletic skill for

"Pop" busy with a needle and thread, j

Foster was a handsome fellow, and '
took pride in keeping himself looking
neat and natty, as far as his attire
went, and he was as particular as an
old maid regrding his clothes, so he was
kept busy doing the tailor act, with the
needle and thread.
One August Pop was taken ill and
