The unrestralued breeding of ills oaso and vice Is another question, ami ono of vital Importance. Hut poverty is not hereditary. A good many of the boys and girls who have taken diplomas from high schools and academics and colleges this year have been talked to by various persons, from the President of the United States to the selectmen of the town, but have had no chance to "talk back." There are still some schools that cling to the olden fashtou of holding commencement day as the op portunity for vouth and Its rirrams Mr. Stead's saying that "the English not for RKe and lta w9(lom. xi,e The German editor who writes so wltherlngly of "American arroganco" la doubtless bothered somewhat by our commercial expansion. i i Hall Cnlnc has been showing King Kdwnrd the sights on the Isle of Man.

Inability to manage course dinners has wrecked many a promising career. It U said that the Duke of Marl borough has vowed never to sot foot on American soli again. Oh, well, he can make that kind of a vow without running any serious risk. The Van derbllts will no doubt be willing to send the money to him regularly If he seriously objects to coming after It How Inequitable sometimes seem the decrees of fate! A poor woman who merely feared that she might become Insane killed herself the other day. while dozens of people who are un doubtedly crazy not only refuse to kill themselves but Insist upon publishing historical novels, lecturing on English literature or getting up political con ventions. In a recent test of accuracy In firing torpedoes -tho vessels of the torpedo boat flotilla in the North Atlantic made some rcmarkablo bits' of a floating tar get 1,000 yards away. As each hit would 'have meant utter destruction In time of actual war the Importance of these wasps of the navy is being her alded abroad as a valuable discovery. It Is well to shoot straight of course. whether with popgun or with automat ic torpedoes, but the main thing In these high explosive days Is to get close enough to an enemy to lodge a shot Long before any torpedo boat could have approached within 1,000 yards of an enemy It would have been blown out of tho water. commencement program of one New England academy shows an cxtraordl nary devotion to this Idea. The exer cises began at half-past nine lu the morning. They consisted first of tweu ty-soven essays by members of the graduating class. Then there was an Intermission, and In the afternoon there were fifteen more essays. The subjects covered a wide range eulogies on George Washington, Hannibal Hamlin. William Mclilnlcy and Theodore Roosevelt; studies of "The Ship Sub sidy Hill," of "Submarine Navigation.' of "Tho Marconi System," of "The Cses of a Library." of "The Hlhlc ln Tennyson." of "The Holy Grail" and of Moses." Of- the forty-two subjects there was not one of a trivial or sensa tlonal character, not one that would not Invite to a fuller knowledge and promise reward for study. Now, sure ly, tboso forty-two boys and girls. In writing for this notable day with Its rapt audience and friendly applause. must have gamed much good knowl edge and some power of thinking clearly nnd of speaking lucidly and forcibly. Meantime, a widening circle was Instructed and inspired. Mnry does not read nnd write on "The Holy Grail" without Interesting father, mother and sister In the mystic story. John docs not study the career of Han nibal Hamlin without reviving grand fathers memories of the stirring '00s. and setting the whole family to read ing aloud a life of Lincoln. Altogether, Is It not probable that the hundreds of parents and friends who sat patient ly through those somewhat long and arduous hours of the old-fashioned commencement bad gained something when the day was over that even tho most polished orator In bis happiest pe riods might have failed to impart? A Kansas paper notes that, of the -flozon carloads of old Iron received ev ery week nt the local Junk-yard, "prob ably nine-tenths consists of farming Ira- ' plemeutii ruined by rust Many of the Implements look as If they could still be saved from the Junk pile by a black- smith; tho farmers thought differently, and bought new ones." Such are signs of that carelessness which sometimes accompanies prosperity; but the same thing precedes adversity and then, bow ugly It looks! If the mortgage also ' could be left In the field to gather rust and ultimately wear out the condition of the plow nnd mower and binder ' would not so much matter. Since that ' Is Impervious to moisture, even to tears, It would seem business-like to take care of the machinery that may help to pay It Iloraco Walpole complained that a caller at Strawberry Hill broke off (be bill of a beautiful marble eagle, and -then to cover the accident carried the u piece away In his pocket. The modern tervals with cigars and cigarettes, sightseer Is perhaps more prone to leave something behind him. The gen erous citizen who opens his grounds to tho public Is too often repaid "with In gratitude and orange peel." In public grounds empty bottles aro broken Into bits which nre dangerous to other pic nickers and to animals; pieces of pnper aro strewn over lawns, flower beds nnd ornamental ponds; names are carved on fences and Inscriptions written on sum mer nouses, to say -uon'i" is ever a thankless task; but If every tourist In prhnto or public grounds would make a point of gathering up with glove or stick a few. banana skins, papers and broken bottles, and hiding them under tho shrubbery, a sentiment of public tidiness might bo created which would force reform upon the careless. THE POPULAR HERO. Fiction lie la Always Eating, Drinking or btnoklng. When the hero of the popular short story Is not eating or drinking be Is smoking, says Martha Itaker Dunn In the Atlantic Ills chronicler flavors his pages with tobacco smoke and punctuates them with cocktails. In Joy or In sorrow. In the most romantic no less than the more commanplace moments, tho hero "lights another cigarette." Emotion un.icompanted by nicotine Is something of which he evidently has no conception. It Is the same, too, with tho up-to- date young man ln real life. He knows. If he has been properly trained. that while a toothpick should be In dulged In only In that spot to which Scripture enjoins us to retire when we are about to pray, a meerschaum plpt Is a perfectly well-bred article for public wear and one which enables him to fulfill agreeably that law ot bis being which suggests that he should always be putting something In bis mouth. At a college ball game not long since, where, as Is usual on such oc casions, clouds of Incense were rUIng to the heavens from the male portion of the spectators, I amused myself by observing a young man who sat In a carrlago near me, and who while the game was In progress smoked a pipe three times and tilled In all the In- 1 RUNS THE WKATI1EK.

Such wna the wny in which our Kmndparentn' foretold the weather. If It was noticed that the old tabby washed herself by rubbing her kiw over her oar, or that the little tree toads trilled their mournful Utile songs. or the fireflies flitted low among the flowers aud the vines, the old folks shook their heads nnd spoke of "rain or If grandmother's feet ached the lit' tie folks grew sorry not because grandmother had a pain, but because It meant bad weather on the murrow Strictly speaking, our weather bu reau Is made up of a great many build lugs scattered all over the United States, nnd tho one nt Washington Is the central station that governs aud directs the smaller ones, and to which they send lu their dally reports; for It Is by getting reports from all tho dif ferent sections of the countrty that Uncle Sam's weather makers aro nbl to make their predictions. There are ono hundred and eighty towns and cities In tho United Stated where there nro observation stations, having the satnc Instruments and apparatus as the ashlngton bureau. Now, the observ era nt these one hundred and eighty stations do not spend their time wait lug for spiders to crawl out of their holes or looking at tho sky to see whether It Is red or gray In the oven Ing. They look nt their thermometers. barometers, anemometers, nnd so on, which nre far better guides than all the other signs put together. At eight o'clock ln the morning and at eight o'clock In the evening of every day the observer at each one of these weather stations from Maine to California looks ut his different lustra incuts and carefully notes what each of them marks. Then be taken a look ;it the sky, to see whether It Is fair or mining or snowing, nnd to see what sort of cloud may be milling about, According to the Weather Ilureau, .hero arc seven different kinds of clouds, and It Is Important that the observer should see what particular kind Is hovering around, for each kind means some special sort of weather or some particular state of the atmos phere. When he has finished his ob servation and noted all the Indications he telegraphs bis report to Washington. In that way, then, the Washington station receives an account of the weather nt all parts ot the country nt the same time, and, as you may easily believe. It keeps the four telegraph operators busy receiving the messages that conio pouring In soon after eight 'clock. As each message Is received lu the telegraph room It Is carried by messenger across the ball to the fore cast room, or room where predictions re made, and handed to tho translator. s the translator reads aloud the cipher reports from the dlfTcreut sta tions, other men ln the room mark hat he reads upon a map of the Unit ed States, so that when the last mes sage nas been translated uie map shows Just what the weather Is nt each one of the one hundred and eighty sta tions. The map Is then turned over to the otflclnl who Is to make the pre dictions. In order to get his beurlngs. bo traces across tho map the differ ent places throughout the country where the temperature Is the same nd the places where the barometer Is the same. The one he marks with red tinea and the other with black lines. nd If you will look at n weather map ou will see these red and black lines wriggling and twisting all ovsr the country. When the reports from the North- est show a great fall In temperature he knows that n cold wave has start od ou a Journey through the United States, and be keeps a lookout to see how fast It reaches the different sta tions lu the West Then he calculates how rapidly It Is moving nnd what kind of weather It has to encounter, nnd perhaps when be has worked out the problem be will telegraph the fol lowing uuuetiu: "Hoist com wave Hag; thennometter will fnll thirty de grees lu next twenty-four hours," and, sure enough, by next day Jack Frost has got hold of our noses nnd toes, nnd the cold wave flag Is almost tearing It self to pieces with delight liut some times the cold wave does not come as was expected It Is switched off on side track or It melts on the way and then the cold wave flag drops In shama Clifford Howard, In St Nicholas, matter up now. tt wnrnn nil Italian, that If they do nut come within the provisions of tho United State Im migration laws they will not be nl j lowed to land In Now York.

Even the natives present began to squirm under tho excessive (prmallty of It all, so that there was a hearty laugh wht-n the salesman, turning to the negro waiter, asked with fine bur lesque of what the French cull the grand manner:" Will the gentleman from Cthlopla bring another cup of cofTco?"

While there are more Immigrants nt the port of New York than ever be fore, tho deportations aro correspond Ingly numerous. A rigid enforcement of alien laws at Ellis Island results In more people being sent back on the ship they camo on than used to be the case. There are many things that may make an Immigrant Ineligible for a long stay on American shores, and among the thousands of foreigners that come over In the steerage every year It Is natural that a certain percentage should bo lacking In proper qualifica tions for American citizenship, or even residence. Every day at the burgo of fice thero aro pitiful scenes of dis appointment as tho Immigration olll clals coldly make arrangements to send n man, a woman, or, mayhap, a whole family, back to tho country from which they havo Just come. This happens very often among the Italians, says a correspondent of tho I'ltttsburg Ga zette. A goodly percentage of tho to tal Immigration Is from Italy, and thero are many swindling agents In that country who persuade their fellow countrymen that tbey may evado the Immigration laws of the United States 'jy embarking from somo foreign port away from ' Italy.
