Meanwhile the so-called republic of Panama was hastily roc- inlzi-d, a treaty promulgated with that new hatched nation and the pro tecting arm of I'ncle Sam thrown about It. It placed Colombia in a ixwltlon where that country had to let her valuable province go or fight the I'nited State, Accordingly this country by the power of it might and a shallow di plomatic trick took the canal one away from Colombia, paying nothing for it. A more barefaced grab could not well have been arranged. Hut that is not all of the story. We might possibly have been excused for taking this canal xone from Colom bia on the score we were dvinsr a great work for humanity and Colom bia was trjing to graft us. The meat o the story, however, is that this country paid the French canal com pany $50,000,000 and there is some doubt as to who grot all of that money and as to why It was paid. In other words' we,were extremely liberal with the defunct company that had an equity in the abandoned canal work but we were perfectly willing to rob and did rob the nation owning the j territory, we were willing to steal l and did steal a whole province away from a weak little country, but we were not so gay In dealing with the company that had a big nation behind I it even though that company's claim or. our pocket book was questionable.

When a man is so touchy there must be something for him to be touchy about. When under the Roosevelt term this country sought to acquire the ca nal tone that territory was part of Colombia. The negotiations aeem to have been carried on Jointly with the Colombian government and the Ftench company that had done much work on the canal but having aban doned the job years before was in danger of losing lis property and rights through lapse of time. In a few years more the canal company's property would nave all passed into Colombia's hands through failure of the company to fulfill its contract. The United Slates government ought to acquire the territory from Colombia for SI 0.000,000 and a pay ment of $;r.0.000 annually. A treaty to this effect was drafted. However, the Colombian lejdtljture declined to ratify the bargain holding out that the frilled Flutes thotild make a payment of $ir,,(i00,Hi0 ar.d the French com 1'any a payment of 1 10,000,000, thus netting Colombia a total of $;,000. f'OO for the territory the same sum President Wilson now seeks to pay. Immediately after the Colombian t!ihlature refund to ratify the 110. 000.00 treaty a so-called revolution v.aa started in Tanama City. It was purely incplred and was a farce. Xo one was killed save a Chinaman who was accidentaly shot At Colon, SO miles away, there were 4000 Colom bian troops and they could have put down the revolution Instantly.

Since his brother, Maxmllian of Mexico, was shot at Queretaro half a century ago. the Hapsburgs have been the victims of cumulative horrors. Ru dolf, son and heir apparent of the emperor, was slain In 1889. Eliza beth, empress queen, was slain in 188. Now Francis Ferdinand and hi duchess have been shot down by a young Servian nationalist. These are historic tragedies. . It la difficult for Americans to re alize the fury of the hatred for Aus trian authority burning beneath the surface in the wide region that once formed greater Servia. Now that the Turks, who centuries ago overwhelm ed the Servian nation, have been driv en back to the very gates of Asia, the Servians find Austria-Hungary th chief obstacle in the w ay of their com plete political union. Bosnia and Her zegovina have been made by force provinces of Hungary, but the hearts of their people still turn toward their victorious brothers in Servia and Montenegro. Servians everywhere re allte that the aspirations of their race are being systematically thwarted, se j far as that is possible, by Hapsburg j ambition and AuMro-Hungarian pol- icy.

History Is replete with Instances of gem-rals who simply wouldn't admit defeat In the fact of crushing odds and repeated overwhelmlngs, but kept marshaling and remarshalins their forces, kept fighting back, kept pounding incessantly away at the en emies' entrenchments until, by the very indomitable spirit of ' their "sameness," the tide of victory final ly turned In their favor. And in business history parallel cases can be pointed to beyond num ber. Forlorn hopes have been ulti mately brought to realization; out of crumbling ruins have been reared new walls of success; repea'ted repuls es have been taken on the point of the sword until that sword found a vulnerable spot in opposition's armor and was driven home. They say it is a wise man- who knows when he is beaten. Yes. but it Is a wiser man who can eee beyond But no one ever has stopped because there was nothing left for them to learn ahout their work. They have stopped merely because they thought there was nothing left for them to learn. And the moment they stopped along came some other fellow, who, believing there was something left ti learn, went after it. found it, and presto! they went ahead or the Mr. Know-lt-alla. And the Mr. Knovv-It-alla went off In a corner and nursed a grouch against their employers and said to themselves: "We have not had a square deal!" And they were right. They didn't get a "square deal." Only, it wasn't their employers who denied them that square deal. They didn't give it to themselves! Their egotism blinded them to their room for improvement, if they had taken the same time to improve their work that they spent In patting them selves on their backs they would not have been passed by their Infinitely wiser but less self-sufficient fellow workers.

MOTHER TOXGl'E" CENSUS. In a bulletin Just Issued by the census bureau it is shown that of the 32.243.382 persons of foreign white stock In the United States in 1910. the English and Celtic, includ ing Irish, Scotch and Welsh, had the largest representation, according to the mother tongue bulletin Issued re cently by the census bureau. As re ported to the census bureau the to tal foreign white stock whose mother tongue was English and Celtic, num bered 10.037,420. This number rep resented 12.3 per cent of the total white population of the United States In 1910. which was 81.731,957. The German group numbered 8,817,271, or 10 8 per cent; Italian, 2.151,422, or 2.6 per cent; Polish. 1.707.640, or 2.1 per cent; Yiddish and Hebrew, 1.676.. 762 or 2.1 per cent; Swedish, 1.445.

(The Columbia Record.) A pretty story comes from France of a contest in compliments between Mme. Sarah Bernhardt and Edmund Rostand, the poet, in which the Al fonse and Gaston stunt Is put to shame. Mme Bernhardt telegraphed to a Paris, newspaper last Wednes day that she had entered suit against Rostand because a poster of a cine matograph performance of his play, "LTiglon," had been stuck up right opposite her Paris theater and was most put out by the use of the title "L'AIglon," which she claims belongs to her so far as concerns the stage. The brilliant author of "L.'Alglon" seems to have been distressed at the anger which had been aroused against bim in the bosom of the "Divine Sarah," and he telegraphed her: "I know nothing about the case, but I would rather cut my hand off than engage a lawyer against Mme EernharJt Xo human force could make me defend myself against her. Whatever, she wishes is right, and I grant her all the profits arising from films of my work. I kiss her hand, gracious as a lily." This triliute from the poet evidently touched Mme. Bernhardt deeply, as it -la stated that she promptly wired to the Paris press declaring her pur pose to refuse to accept Rostand's moving picture profits, which are es timated at $40,000. This is an interesting and signal in stance of a soft answer turning away wrath. WOMEN IN OLYMPIC GAMES. THE WAY IT GOES. A Kansas poet contributes thin to Vacation Literature: "Our bedrooms are large and airy; Our Jiving room tila.mt ur.i .., - 1 1 . u - , Our cook Is good natured arid fin. ling jna me nieais sne serves are a treat. Our yard l big, green and shady; The porch Is concealed by a vine; At one end a hantnoek Is swaying Hy the big, easy chair that in mine. To leave this comfort and coolness I declare! It inn ken my heart sink; lint we iiiut take a vacation Or what will the neighbors think?" There's no reason why lightning hhouldn't strike twice In Oiq same If it find the place. (Philadelphia Ledger.) At the International Olympic Con gress, In Paris, 28 countries, with 200 delegates, have favored the proposal to admit women as participants in the Olympic contests, with only four countries the United States, Turkey. Japan and France voting In the neg ative. The proposal, emanating from England, to allow the points won by feminine competitors to count In the reckoning, was Indorsed by the same overwhelming majority. Women participated In minor events of the meet in 1912 at Stockholm. There were races of 100 and 400 me ters, a high diving contest and tennis events In which women participated Harking back across the centuries to the historic origin of the games, we find that whereas in 18 of the 24 con tests men might enter, and in the re maining six boys were competitors, women were not even allowed to be ! were arrested, tirewnt hs spectators, under the dreadful penalty of being hurled from the Trojean rock. Women were per mitted, however, to enter chariots In the chariot races and the first woman to capture a prize for the swifttnH8 of her stee ls was Cynlsca, daughter ot AchldamuM and sister of Agesllaus. The only exception to the law for bidding the presence of women was made in favor of the priestesses of Demeter, who was enthroned on high on the "ultar" of white marble; and the only woman known to have evad ed the rule was forgiven because her father, her brothers and her son had been victors In the Olympic games and it serncd a pardonable athletic enthu-Aiasrn. Among the employes whose duties are supposed to be discharged in the rear of a certain shop in Baltimore, while the proprietor looks after mat ters in front, are a couple of darkles. who occasionally "take things easy- One afternoon they were engaged in a quiet game of seven-up on a barrel. when they were startled by the sud den appearance of the boss, whom they supposed to be in his usual place in front. The boss was angry. "How Is It he demanded, "that I find you fellows playing cards?" 1 aon t know, boss, was the re sponse of one of the darkles, "unless It's on account of them rubber heels you is wearln." Lipplncott's Maga xine. A Good Investment. vt. D. Magu, a well known mer chant of Whltemound, Wis., bought a stock of Chamberlain's medicine so as to be able to supply them to his customers. After receiving them he was himself taken sick and says that one small bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem edy was worth more to him than the cost of his entire stock of these med icines.

Objecting to the anointing with oil by leaders of the Holy Rollers sect of his smaller and lame brother, Ed Jacobs, came near breaking up the meeting of the sect in Chapmantown, a southern suburb. The tent was full and the leaden were administering the healing ser vice to the lame boy. The brother Jumped to the platform and fought for a suspension of operations, de claring that the oil was drugged and he did not propose to have his telatlve treated with it. A general riot ensued, and finally after the oil had been placed and the preacher told the boy he was cured and he failed to walk, there was a threatened riot on the outside, caused by twenty or more people Incensed at the actions of the preachers. Offi cers stopped the trouble. JULY NLlfN HINDU GIRLS IjANHED: TO STUDY AT PASADENA VANCOUVER. Ju'y ,3.
