The'boneyards are crowded with gentlemen shrouded, and sleeping in boxes, the victims of fools, of pin-headed varmints who loaded their garments with all kinds of deadly and murderous tools. And widows are sighing and orphans are crying all over this country because of the blokes who always are plannin' to spring a big cannon and brandish it gaily till somebody croaks. Oh, let the law step on the fool with a weapon, and bury him deeply and load him with chains!

According to advices from England the British naval constructors are considering the advisability of supplanting the dreadnoughts and superdreadnoughts by vessels of more moderate displacement, but in other respects equally powerful.

The sort of ship proposed will not displace more than 1700 to 18,000 tons, she will be of shallower draft and have lower free-board, but will be equally well protected, and will mount Just as many and as heavy guns, says the New Orleans Picayune. The constant growth In the size of dreadnoughts until we are now building ships of 27,000 tons displacement has greatly augmented the cost of keeping the first battle line filled. If smaller vessels can develop as good results at smaller cost a great saving will be effected. If the British adopt the smaller type other powers will be prompt to accept it also, as the English easily take the lead in naval designs and improvements. One of the features of the smaller ships with which it is proposed to supplement the dreadnoughts will be their greater speed.

The dreadnought type develop twenty-one knots as their best speed. The proposed smaller ships are expected to have a speed of near thirty knots, to be secured by a combination of the reciprocating and turbine engines which some of the transatlantic passenger ships have already adopted with good results. Anything calculated to cheapen the cost of battleships is to be accepted with gratification, as the cost of building dreadnoughts has increased so rapidly in late years that all the maritime nations have been seriously embarrassed in providing the means of keeping their fleets up to the requisite standard.

Hull, 830 Circle There was nothing particularly noticeable about a young couple who occupied the front seat of the Stock Yards car recently until the car stopped at the corner of Market street and Douglas avenue, and the young man passed out the front exit, and to the surprise of many, the lady went to the rear exit. Whether the lady had come to the city with the man, or merely met him on the car is not known, but nevertheless, the main was strongly of the opinion that she was following him when he stepped off the car and, endeavoring to help her down the steps, turned and tried to assist an able-bodied citizen, who violently protested and called attention to the lost maid making her way out the rear of the car.

It lias been but a few days ago since Vice President i Sherman introduced a modern electric fan in the United States senate. Immediately many of the senators had their desks equipped for greater comfort in hot -weather, Heretofore the senators had restricted themselves to palm leaf fans. Surveying this modernity of the august assembly Sen.

Bourne of Oregon commented that the senate had taken on the semblance of a beer garden. It appears from our long perspective that the learned solons have been taking themselves too seriously, There is no more reason why the senate should fee undignified by the presence of electric fans than that they should feel the necessity of writing their learned discourses with a quill pen, or that they 6hould squint at their "applause" sprinkled manuscripts by the light of tallow dips. No more incongruity at this than that they should shun the telephone, the telegraph, and the swit express trains, or the printing presses which scatter their proceedings over the United States almost as quickly as the dally deliberations cease. The senators should get over this idea of posing like many stuffed pterodactyls In the Smithsonian Institute, The United States Is an electricity nation. We are look- i ing forward, not to the archaic museums of dignity.

The people are going to select their senators from the grass roots very shortly, and shirt-sleeves, electric fans, and a day's work of hustling in behalf of the whole people, will be the order of the day, "CONCILIATION" IS THE WORD. Dispatches from Paris say that in the Moroccan difficulty which has arisen with Germany's steps to guard German Interests in that country, said to be menaced by the turbulence of the tribesmen under arms, but really more threatened by French predominance in Morocco, the policy of France will be to "conciliate Germany' No doubt of it, asserts the Cleveland Leader. The greatest army in Europe lies on its arms, almost literally, Just east of France, and the second navy In Europe is harbored in German ports. It is natural for any and every power in Europe, except Great Britain, to "conciliate Germany" when it can be done without ruinous cost. The only reason that England is an exception to the rule is that the British people realize that their country is stronger, relatively to the German Empire, than it is likely to be ten years hence fifty yearsj and many of them- feel that If a trial of arms must come, the sooner it begins the better for England.

Germany is gaining faster than the United Kingdom in many vital elements of strength, and there is a widespread belief in the British Isles when these changes shall have gone far enough to Bttlt the German government war will follow. Probably this feeling Is unjust and foolish, but it is tsertalnly prevalent -among a powerful and influential class of Englishmen who argue that now is the best time for a German War. They will be prevented, no doubt, from the crime and tragedy of forcing any such awful conflict upon their country, but they are numerous and noisy enough to offset, in part, the natural tendency of all nations living near Germany to "conciliate" that tremendous military, naval and industrial empire. VENEZUELA'S PROSPECTS. certain Beems to be known about Cipriano Castro except that he Is not lounging in any of those European haunts of which he had been given free access.

He may not have landed in Venezuela, but evidently if he has not, he is making his way thither. Venezuela has enjoyed several years of uninterrupted peace since his departure. Industry has had time to revive, and there is perhaps even a stock of gold and silver money in the National treasury. Obviously the time for Cipriano Castro to rouse himself from the dolce far niente dreams of European rivieras. Cipriano is either there or en route.

Future developments ought to be Interesting, for Cipriano never falls to be diverting. The Dallas News predicts that he will probably gather himself an army and start on a march of liberation, but unless his nam Is more magical than it is supposed to be he can hardly be expected to arrive at the end fixed for it, for there can be no doubt that, having made a precedent in the case of Zelaya and Nicaragua, Uncle Sam will give effective and pretty open support to those who undertake to suppress Cipriano. He was ousted once at the Instance of the United States, and it will probably be felt that the wisdom and virtue of that policy of statesmanship need to il)e vindicated. Miss Leila Johnson of Attica will arrive today for a visit with Mia Bessie Goodyear of West Maple street. 8he Is en route for Colorado wher ahe will spend the summer.

Dr. Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard, is the latest wise man to come forward with the statement that all men are not created equal. He says: 1 "Men are not born equal in capacities, powers or dispositions, and under a regime of liberty the inborn diversities of capacity and character in different individuals increase as life goes on and inevitably produce great inequalities in regard to property and general conditions of life." True enough, says the Oklahoman. The blind man is not the equal of the man who has two good eyes, and the muscular man of six feet stature is more than the equal of the puny individual measuring only four feet in height. One man Is born with the acquisitive faculty and another is not.

One man is born a philosopher, while another is a natural mechanical genius. But what does all this amount to as related to the Declaration of Independence? To deny that "all men are created with certain inalienable rights" is to pronounce Christianity a farce and sow the seed of anarchy. Dr. Eliot and Chancellor Day are voicing sentiments that may increase the endowments of the schools in which they are Interested, but it was such belief that caused the Roman empire to decline and caused Louis XVI to lose his head Miss Lela Bagby will leave today for Kites Park. where she will remain until the first of September.

It was 1 o'clock this morning and the desk sergeant's office at police headquarters was absolutely quiet. The telephone hadn't rung in half an hour. Harry Yeager, captain, sat back against the wall, studying notes in a small memorandum book. Joe Millis, night desk sergeant, smoked in silence the stub of his inevitable cigar. Ralph Peterson, auto driver, closed his eyes for a small nap between calls.

An Eagle reporter scanned a page in the arrest blotter and thought with news longing of the yellow scratch book locked away from the press by order of the chief. Then everybody Jumped at once. The good right hand of Captain Yeager. veteran of. the "Philippines campaign, flashed vto the .45 Jthat hung lpose in his holsters Serjeant Millla his 4chairicwar.

frojm the desk six Ms eyes narrowed. Driver Petereor unconsciously snatched the electric p61ice flash light from his coat pocket and snapped it on in the white glare of the Tungsten lamp. The newspaper reporter promptly forgot about the chief's secret scratch book, and instead of am old, familiar stretch of sun-baked Mojave desert unrolled itself before his fear-widened eyes. He backed into a corner. Silence, breathless silence.

Then the whispered voice of the newspaper man, addressed to no one in particular: "Gentlemen, that noise was made by a rattlesnake. He must have at least 13 rattles, and and he is ready to strike "W-h-r-T! G-h-r-r! E-h-r-r! Aught" Certainly nothing but the 13 rattles of a man-killing rattlesnake, angered to slay, could make a noise Just like that. Slowly, stealthily, with all caution and a little courage, the captain and the driver and the reporter made a minute inspection of the room, and of the big, dim court room beyond, while only Sergeant Millis sat stiff and still in his back-flung chair, too thoroughly frightened to move. Again and again, and yet again, the horrible warning rattle rang out on the still night air. It seemed now here, now there in that corner, now yonder in some dark recess.

Then? Why then the long right hand of Sergeant Millis unfolded itself, and there hopped onto the night desk an angry Kansas locust, which he had been slyly squeezing to "make it holler." And long and loud rang the laughter of Millis, sergeant. and Mrs. A. O. Rorabaugh and daughter.

Evelyn, and son, Lawrence, left yesterday morning In their tovrlng car for Empora, Kan. The airships don't soar in Emporia, but the prices of vegetables do, says the Gazette there. "Wouldn't a frog chorus sound good for a change?" mournfully asks the Marquette Tribune. What if the Lord is just handing out sample packages of the hereafter in the form of these blistering days?

Editor Kelly of the Toronto Republican in an able editorial tells of the old "pieces" that used to be spoken in school, giving special place to "Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight." No menttion was made of "The Polish Boy," however. It is possible that the Republican editor never struck an attitude and de Mr. O. Rich.

An eminent English physician stands authority for the statement that if any one will spend twenty-four hours continuously in bed, he will secure the equivalent, in health-giving results of a week's vacation of the ordinary kind. Those unfortunately so situated that they will be unable to take a vacation can try the remedy.

Almost every one has one full day in the week which he can make a day of absolute pest should he choose. But the majority of those who are in a position to take vacations will doubtless continue to do so, and they will do well thereby. There is something more in a vacation than a mere resting of the tired muscles and mind from the strain of daily labor. The great advantage is that it affords a relatively long break in the monotony of daily life. Those who follow the personal news of stage folks will be very much disappointed in the report that Ethel Barrymore and Russell Colt have agreed to disagree.

Such, however, is not the case with Ethel Barrymore, whose husband is a wealthy young business man. The charges too, are somewhat unusual for a stage disruption.

PATH'S MELANCHOLY FAREWELL. Is it a joke? Is the question which many persons will ask themselves on reading a special from London in the New York papers, to the effect that Ben Harris, who i building a $100,000 vaudeville house at Atlantic City, Is negotiating with Adelina Patti for a season of -twenty weeks In the new house. Patti is to give her answer, it is said, within ten days. The phenomenal salary that has been offered the singer, said to be 115,000, gold, a week, iseGtirely satisfactory to Adelina, but it appears jthat she has not quite consented to give two "shows" a day as they say in the vaudeville world. Harris says that she is willing to give only one.

If the difficulty can be overcome, Patti will visit the United States in January next. It is not necessary to recall the fact that Patti was torn at Madrid on February 19 1S43, and is, therefore, now 68 years old and will be 69 during the proposed engagement.
