tc the scene. 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

Why the Colonel a nation if Presi

is timely to look up the facts in the
case. 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

netting Colombia a total of $;,000.

Francis Joseph, now nearly S4
years of ge. havins worn the imperial
crown for sixty-
The Iiaburgs. five years, still finds
death stripping off
younger branches of the ancient
house of Hapsburg while he is left to
continue his lonely reign, says the
Chicago News.
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-

When Duchess Sophia died w ith her

IN A MIRTHFUL VEIN
Many :in uphill fight has been
fought and won on pure gameness.
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. There Isn't a Job on the face of the
earth that has been absolutely reduc

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

largest representation, according to
the mother tongue bulletin Issued re
cently by the census bureau. As re
ported to the census bureau the to

tongue was English and Celtic, num

PERFECTLY GOOD REASON.
BERNHARDT AND ROSTAND.
(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 ..,

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

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

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,

her stee ls was Cynlsca, daughter ot
AchldamuM and sister of Agesllaus.
The only exception to the law for

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

In a letter to a New York
newspaper the manager of a talk
ing machine company wrote:
nWe advertise as a sort of
business insurance, in winter and
summer, good times and bad,
and our policy has made our
products famous the world over."
This advertiser uses the
newspapers very largely and has
secured splendid co-operation
from local distributors.
Business is so good that
his factory, even in the dullest
season, is far behind in its ord
ers. Business insurance through news
paper advertising has made dull times
something unknown to this concern.
