Perhaps the most extraordinary ex ample of Iirilulu going to war for "no ren&ou at ull" occurred In the reign of Gcorno II. One Itolert Jenkins, an English merchant-captain, trading from Jamaica, arriving In England In 1738, reported that the sloop had been board ed by the Spanish coast guards and that, though no proof of smuggling had boen found, he had ln?en tortured and bis ear torn off. All England flew Into nnuproar. "Jenkins" ear" divided par ties and shook Walpole's ministry it self. The house of commons sent for Jenkins, and he was told to bring bis ear with him. The incident grew Into a crisis, though Walpole did his best to persuade people to keep their heads, but the popular indignation was so groat that tin- next year the govern ment was coniM.'llod to declare war against Spain. Pearson's. AMUSEMENTS Pastime C'hunge. The Patslme put on an excellent change of moving pictures yesterday, among .the new attractions being "Drama on the Kcverle."

The Parish Top. Onco In England top whlppiug wai practically ordered by law.. There was a huge top rormeriy provided In every village to be whipped In frosty weath er that the peasants might be kept warm by the exercise and out of mis chief while they could not work. Shakespeare In "Twelfth Night" says, Ills brains turn like a parish top Ben Jonsoti In "New Idu" writes, "He spins like a parish top," nnd Beaumont and Fletcher have "dances like a town top and reels nnd hobbles.' Evelyn the diarist, speaking of the uses of wll low wood, says that It was ordered that "the great town tops should be made thereof." Kaglo Show Shop. The Eagle show shop is drawing the usual large crowds today with a fine set of moving pictures and illustrated songs among them being the follow Ing, "A Japanese Butterfly Dance," "Angler's Dream," ."Chemist's .Mis, take." "The Surly Sexton," "White Shoes," and the Illustrated song, "Handsome, Brave Lifesaver." There will be a change of program tomor row. Is German as Bad as This? John Ruskln was caustic In his utter ances about the German language. In "Letters of Dr. John Brown" Ruskln is thus quoted: German iun't a "language" at all, but only a "throatage" or "gutturage" a mode of human expression learned chiefly of wolves and bears, with half of the things It calls words stitched In the middle like wasps and ants or ass panniers, and letters scrabbled out when people were mostly drunk, so that they didn't know the tops from the bottoms of them. In Wrong. "Your husband Js greatly. In need tot exercise," said the doctor. "lie's In doors too much. He'll have to get out more." "Out more!" exclaimed the wife. lie's been out every night this week. That's what's the matter with him." Realizing that he was In the wrong, the doctor left a prescription and prom lsed to call later. St Louis Republic. de- The Vote That Counted. "And what was your family's clsiotf?"

Success Maga zine. The senate haa passed a bill pro hibiting the employment within cer tain hours of children under 14 years of age in the District of Columbia In any factory, workshop, telegraph of fice, restaurant, hotel, apartment house, saloon, pool or billiard room, bowling alley or theater or In the transmlssoln of merchandise or mes sages. v One of the planks of the Republican state platform is as follows We are opposed to the abuse of the initiative and referen dum by the submission to the. people of large numbers of meas-1 ures on the same ballot. The people are too bus to give these measures the attention necessary to insure wise action. The number of measures to be submitted at any one election should ' be limited and it should be further provided that a measure once voted down by the people should bo ineligible to a place on the ballot for a period of six years thereafter. The latter part of this plank is clearly directed against wo man suffrage. This proposition was thoroughly canvassed two years ago and was defeated by a majority of 10,173. There has been no change in public opinion on this question and the im migration into the state has been chiefly of those opposed to this amendment. Nevertheless, it is again foisted on the ballot under the misleading title of "Equal Suffrage" in the hope that through the inattention of the voters and the carelessness which will follow from the large number of propositions submitted, this measure may slip through. The convention is right. This is an abuso of the initiative. The amendment ought to be de feated by a larger majority than' that of two years ago.
