I'eep in the orchard-bloom the roof-trees stand, Th brown sheep graze along the' bay. And through the apple boughs above the sand The bees' hum sounds no fainter than the spray. There, through uncounted hours declines the day To the low arch of twilight's cioe. And Just as night about the moon grows gray, One tail leans westward to the fading rose. Giver of dreams, O thou with seathless wing Forever moving through th fiery hail, e To flame-seared lids th cooling vision bring, And let some soul go seaward with that sail. Edith Wharton. In Century ,' MagaztXE.. ! theIdifference The world's war interest is nov held by the Geraian-Russinn rsm 1 paign and more particularly this in terest is centered upon the Russia i tortress of Brest Litovsk, the point d'appui on the Bug, one of tl-e strongest fortresses In Europe, the central point in the Muscovites' Fu- ropean defense and offense, and one of the moat important depots for, and distributing points df, military sup plies near the western frontiers. Brest Litovsk, rated by military crit ics as a much more important strate gic point than Warsaw, around which the armies of Russia are regrouping for the defense of the empire, Is de scribed In a geographical sketch is sued by the National Geographical .society. Brest litovsk, a powerfully forti fied Russian stronghold, is one of the oldest important fortresses in north ern Europe and its history has been a changeful and stirring one. It is first mentioned on the occassion of its capture by Boleslav the Brave of Poland in 120. Xext Casimer the Just of Poland bunt a tight castle here, in country srhere the outposts of several nations met. Princes of Galicla, Volhynia, Lithuania, grand masters of the Teutonic Knights, Tar tar chieftains and kings of Poland held and atormed the ccity in turns, and from its fortifications : ravaged the region around. Tartars tnrept over' the place like a plague In li41, moving most of the town into its muddy river. The Teutonic Knights de-vastated Its su burbs in 137S, and Mengly Ghyrey, Kahn of the Crimea, burnt the city with conscientious attention to de- ' t i . y ; its '4 i - N f s ) h 'II ?

In America he finds Presi dent Wilson "peeking to dis cover what is best Tor the peo ple of the United Sates and what they want 3iim .to do," while in Europe he fmnd the) rulers asking themselves "What shall I order the people to do for me?" His lour of Europe :has con vinced him toat America is the one place on earth where the opinion of the people counts. Here he finds the president seeking to learn the thoughts of the masses he Is serving while in "Europe he found in the rules mi indifference to the thoughts of the people so long as they fought according to orders. The difference Is apparent to thtme who live on the other side of the Atlantic, he says. Far from finding America con demned and ridiculed for her dijmified stand for peace, he heard this country "praised and flattered and saw its good opinion sought by all the arm ies and chancelleries." He returned to the United States to find Americans "busy, happr. unworried and confident" and, after contrasts ing the two sides of tne Atlant ic, began to "appreciate the marvel even of their being a nat'on on the earth where the opinion of the people counts." feSied upon it by the great northern esnplre to make It ae nearly Impreg nable as possible. Brest Litovsk is situated at the Junction of the navigable ravers Bug and Mukhovets, and at the point of confluence stands the city fortress It lies upon the right bank of the Bug, here sharply cut, where Che riv er tarns from north to nrtheast Railways from Odessa. Kiev, Moscow, Warsaw, Vllna and east Prussia Inter sect here. Further, it lies opsin the inland waterway from the Baltic to the Black sea, the course of which is connected up by canal behind Brest, between the upper Mukhovets river and the Pripet river. Thus, the city Is served by a well-nigh perfect system of communications, reaching to the north, the east, the south and to points la the Interior etween, and expanding again from Brest toward the northweat. the west and the southwest. Brest lies la the government of Grodno, 131 allies south of the city of Grodno. It has a population of about 45.000. more than half of which Is Jewish. The older fortifications lie about one mile east of Brest and have a circumference of four miles. The field works have been kept up to date and everything possible has been dune by Russia to make them uncon querable. Brest Litovsk is regarded by Eusaia as the most powerful In dividual stronghold In the empire. THIS MA Y ENTERTAIN KIDXT MI.ND THE RAIX.

Here Is the man who put Kingman, Kan., on the map the other night when he kissed William J. Bryan be fore a large audience. "And also Mrs. Graber whom he kisses regularly. But Mr. Graber is not a German at all, and he didn't kiss Mr, Bryan because he thought the former secretary of state was trying to prevent war with Germany. Mr. Graber was a Rus sian; now he is a first-class Ameri can, for he has been in the United States, and in Kansas at that for 32 years. So Mr. Bryan's alleged friend liness for the Germans had nothing to do with It he just kissed the Nebras kan because he loved him. An eye witness of the kiss has sent this description of the scene: "When Mr. Graber kissed Mr. Bry an it was just after the Nebraskan had finished his speech here and the people were shaking hands with him. Graber Is of a retiring disposition and stood back for a while. He then went up to Bryan and said: " 'Mr. Bryan, I have read your pa per for years and always admired you." "He then leaned over toward Bry an. Bryan evidently thought that Graber wanted to whisper to him, for he too leaned over. Before he knew what was going on Graber had taken hold of him around the neck with Joenph'C. Graber. " both arms and kissed him on the cheek, and then said: " 'I promised my God that when 1 heard you talk if you came n -to my standard of a man I would ktan yon.' "Bryan blnshed clear to the back of his head and patted Graber on the buck. About all Bryan said about it afterward was that he 'hoped the pa pers wouldn't put him in the Hobson class." "There is a large colony of the Russians and -nearly all of them are Menonltes, and most of them bear the name of Graber. As an example I will say that the telephone directory in their neighborhood has the name" of thirty-nine different Grahers and all of them do not have phones, eith er. They are all hard working. In dustrious people and are very reli gious, as those people usually are. Joseph C. Graber Is looked up to by the rest of the 'family' as a sort of leader. He has an elegant home, modern in every way. Including gas lights. AH buildings are large and well kept. He has the best machin ery, Including tractor and automobile, large bams, silo, and verything that goes to make an ideal farm. He rais. es good stock and has two stallions he imported from Belgium that he keeps for breeding purposes.'' SLAVS TAKE 700,000 PRISONERS OF WAR MOSCOW, Sept. 7. According to the latest official statements there are now 700,000 war prisoners in Russia. They consist of 20O-.000 Ger mans, 400.000 Austrians and 100,000 Turks. The Austrians and Turks are all occupied In agricultural work, but the 5ermans are confined In Intern ment camps. It Is understood, how ever, they will shortly be put to work in the mines, whence escape will not be easy.

The officers also were Instructed to draw up bills embodying the plrn clples for presentation to the next congress.
