By C. E. KILEY. GRAND RAPIDS, - MINNESOTA, A cireus press agent turned 6,000 people away who wanted to see the sbow one day last week. Buffalo boasts that it is the coolest city in the country. We predict that it will quit this inside of six months. Hungary is said to be contemplating following Norway’s example. This will make another opening for a king out of a job. The next book agent who -tackles New York’s smart set may have to make frequent visits to the free lunch emporiums. The weather man has treated corn well lately. Now the farmers would like to have him give the grass a little due attention. Why should anybody waste good photographic plates on Harry Lehr, when it would be just as easy to snap Maxine Elliott? The Rochester Democrat publishes an article on “How to Make a Revol- ver Safe.” The best way is to bury it and forget the place. A married woman in Spain has been in a trance for thirty-one years. There’s one marriage where there is no connubial squabbling. The Sultan of Turkey has decorated Senator Bacon of Georgia. But no man should be judged according to the source of his decorations. When the Persian minister at Wash- ington was asked if it were true that the shah was coming to America, his only answer was, “O; pshaw!” After reading the list of swells in- cluded in the “Fads and Fancies” book some persons might be willing to pay about $1.500 to be left out. Whenever the Canadian courts have nothing in particular on hand they turn in and render a few more deci- sions in the Gaynor and Green case. A California millionaire who ran his automobile against a milk wagon was killed. That was about as near lese majesty as it is possible to get in this country. A New York architect has been made sick by the bite of a kissing bug. As he is a married man, the neighbors have their own opinion about it. A New York judge has decided that a girl after a lovers’ quarrel is entitled legally to keep the ring. That may be, but a girl of the right kind would net want to. What a delight it is to listen to the young lawyer, just admitted to the bar, when for the first time in his life be bas an opportunity to talk in pub- lie about “my client.” Doubtless the Philadelphia doctor who believes that his pian for getting to the pole is much better than Peary’s has read a great many books about Arctic exploration. “Divine providence miraculously preserved his majesty,” the sultan of Turkey, from the murderous attack of an a sin. Then providence must have some use for the sultan. Premier Balfour, having been de- feated in the House, resumes his cus: tomary attitude of “philosophic € pt. He doesn’t quite know what to do, and won't hurry to do it. A woman in New Jersey, who has just died at the age of 93. remembered being kissed by Lafayette when he came to Paterson. And Lazayette probably forgot ‘her inside of five sec- onas. . A New York magistrate sentenced a defendant to kiss his wife once a day, and there was no sour old bach- elor around to protest against the sen- tence as “eruel and unusual punish- ment.” After all, it is so seldom that com- mentary things are written about members of New York’s “smart ihat they cta hardly be blamed for their willingness to pay well for a little taffy. One of our contemporaries has an article headed, “A Sad Drowning,” thus distinguishing it from the gay and cheerful drownings which are 80 numerous at this time of year.”— Hartford Times. ‘The marine hospital service is com- plaining bitterly that it can’t get white mice enough to make serum for the pook-worm, the cause of laziness. This sounds like Lewis Carroll, or else a pretty long souse. ng Alfonso is making prepara- tions to visit Emperor William at Ber- jin. It will be wise for the women of Berlin to keep their babies off the streets when William and Alfonso go cut in their automobile to see the town. “One of the chief causes of the dull- ness of life,” remarks an esteemed contemporary, “is the inability to lis- ten you find in nine people out of ten.” Evidently that editor and his friends differ as to the brilliancy of bis conversation.

The Poltava and Peresviet will leave in a week under their own steam, The London Daily Telegraph, which in this matter may be regarded as semi-official, says that the reports of the forth-coming resignation of Lord Curzon are at least premature, but it says it has reason to believe that that contingency is not improbable. The great annual summer maneuv- ers of the Italiam’ army, held this year between Naples afid Benevento, have begun. A force of 60,000 troops of all arms is engaged.

TWO MORE ARTICLES SETTLED INTEGRITY OF CHINA AND SuUR- RENDER OF LIAOTUNG PE- NINSULA. HOPE OF COMPROMISE GROWS RUSSIANS MAY YIELD SAKHALIN, AND JAPANESE FOREGO IN- DEMNITY. Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 16. — The crisis in the peace negotiations upon which the eyes of the world are fastened is. approaching rapidly, and the end of this week or the first of next at the latest, should witness the deadlock and the end, if the confer- ence is to go to pieces. Two more of the twelve articles, numbers four and six, were disposed of yesterday. Ar- ticle four consists of mutual pledges to observe the integrity of China and the policy of the “open “oor” for the commerce of all nations, and article six covers the surrender of the Rus- sian Jeases to the Liaotung peninsula, Port Arthur, iny and the Blonde and Elliott islands.’ To article four both parties Gave Ready Assent, and the official statement of the adop- tion of that article took care to state that it was agreed to “unanimously.” Article five, the consideration ot which was postponed until later, pro- vides for the cession of the island of Sakhalin. Discussion appearing use- Jess at this stage on account of the firm negative given in the Russian re- ply, it was decided upon the motion of the Japanese to defer its discussion, thus revealing the Japanese intention of postponing to the end the life and death struggle. This is the usual pro- cedure followed in diplomatic negotia- tions, enabling the negotiators to come to an accord upon all possible points before tackling the crucial is- sues, and the fact that the Russians Aequiesced in the proposition shows that they, too, are as careful and as anxious as are the Japanese that the world should not accuse them of being re- sponsible for precipitating the break, if break there is to be, and wrecking the conference. This in itself is a hopeful sign. Besides, by postponing the burning questions to the end, the psychological moment for bargain and compromise arrives. Then hurriedly the last trump cards and the game is done. And there is growing hope of compromise. To the closest observers the final solution begins to crystallize quite naturally—the Russians yield- ing the cession of Sakhalin, Japan for- getting the “cost of the war,” but Taking Compensation in the money to be refunded to Jap- an by China on account of the trans- fer to her of the Chinese Eastern rail- road, which Russia contends belongs to a private corporation, therefore unconfiseable by Japan, the Russian government property in Port Arthur and Dalny and remuneration for: the maintenance of the 100,000 Russian prisoners in Japan. According to the Russian view, Japan has already se- cured all and more’ than she dreamed of claiming before the war. To insist upon a foe who has still half a million men confronting her in the field footing the bill for the cost of the war as the price of peace, would, the Russians say, change the character of the military struggle henceforth from one for certain principles to one for the Exaction of “Blood Money.” All questions relating to Korea and Manchuria except the cession of the Chinese Eastern railroad and the main Siberian line running through Northern Manchuria from the station “Manchuria,” on the Amur, via Har- bin to Vladivostok, are settled in the five articles already adopted. The only jar in the sessions of the conference yesterday occurred at the morning session, when a rather spir- ited controversy occurred over the question of the publicity of the pro- ceedings. Each side manifested a dis- position to charge the other with be- ing responsible for the “leaks,” and it was settled by renewed pledges to ob- serve the strictest secrecy henceforth regarding the proceedings. As a re- sult the correspondents last night ex- perienced additional difficulty in se- curing information. Russia Is Determined. The discussion on Sakhalin went far enough to demonstrate the deter- mined opposition of Russia to its ces- sion, and there had not been the slightest sign of yielding when the agreement was reached to reserve a decision on the article until later. Competent Japanese authority, how- ever, still insist that Japan will never abandon this point. They declare, powever, that Baron Komura and Mr. Takahira will go to the extreme limit to secure the bases of the “treaty of } will be signed. They do not even say, | that they are hopeful.

Leach Plan Wins People. Dr. Reginaid B. Leach of St. Paul, Minn., made little progres: esterday in his efforts to test his arsenic pre- ventative of yellow fever. He spent the day quietly at his hotel and at the chess club, meeting prominent busi- ness men who were anxious to see the scientist who believes so strongly in his preventive and is willing to inoc- ulate himself with the disease and to risk the lives of four of his aequaint- ances. Except the medical fraternity, every one in New Orleans that has had any- thing to do with Dr. Leach has shown him the utmost courtesy and consid- eration, and this is testified to by the fact that the vast majority of people here are taking his prescription. It is believed that the force of public opinion will become so strong that the medical fraternity at length will be forced to recede from its position and appoint a committee to watch Dr. Leach’s experiments. Dr. Leach is waiting for some of the New Orleans physicians to volunteer to watch his experiments, and as soon as he ean find several reputable phy- sicians who are willing to do this he will at once expose himself to the dis- ease. He has been taking arsenic two weeks and is now ready to make the test, being, according to his theory, immune against the disease. NINE BLOWN TO SHREDS.

One of the Standard Oil’s Measures Found to Hold Too Much, Kansas City, Aug. 16—Recently a city official seized an oi] measure used on a Standard Oil delivery wagon in this city, making the claim that it was short, and prosecution was threat- ened. A test of the measure was made yesterday in the city chemist’s office.
