A New York magistrate reached over his desk
6nd grasped the hand of an unshaven, tattered
man. who had been arrested for making a speech
to a crowd 011 a street corner. "You are a sensible
man. and are doing the right kind of philanthropy
in the right kind of a way. You are honorably
discharged. The prisoner was James Eads How,
Die St. Louis millionare tramp, who had been con-
ducing a free employment bureau for those in dis-
tress. [lis philanthropy is all right, no doubt, but
why affect rags and dirt? He must really prefer
1ramp habits, which hardly sustains the justice's
yirdict that he is sensiblo.
A SONG IN THE NIGHT.
The clock hud struck twelve and the sleepless ono
counted the strokes and turned 011 his pillow
wearily.
As the last echo died away came the sound of
a voice far down the street—the voice of some lato
homegocr forgetful that a sleeping world lay about
him. absorbed only with the joy of his own thoughts,
unconscious perhaps that he sang at all.
Nearer he came; clear, rich, young, vibrant witn
life rose the voice, quick, firm steps forming a
rhythmical accompaniment.
What the song was the listener did not know;
he could not distinguish the words, and the tune,
melodious and piercing sweet, was strong to him.
Perhaps it was a sentimental ballad, inspired by a
sweetheart to whom the singer just said farewell;
perhaps it was a song of action, of hope, of antici-
pation, expressive of youth's dreams.
The listener was only musically gifted and could
not interpret.
He only knew that the song, now joyous and high,
dropped to a minor, pathetic strain and in its refrain 1
•ose again to a lilt of triumph.
lie knew, too, that suddenly, in some way lhat
he understood not, a door was opened that had long
been closed.
Old dreams came back, aspirations of youth, never'
alas, fulfilled; faces, half-forgotten, that had once
made a part of life, came out of the dark and
smiled at him in the old-time way; visions once cher-
ished of the future he had never found swept be-
fore him as a panoroma of a life not his own, yet,
as he knew, really of his own life outgrown.
There was pain in the return of those old dreams;
the lingering sweetness of the midnight song left
behind a heart-ache.
Vague regrets for hopes and ambitions that had
faded, for promised achievements that had been but
empty words filled the listener's mind.
The singer was passing now and the silvery tenor
rang clear and true.
Whatever might be the theme of the song, the
voice was the expression of youth incarnate—nay,
more, of youth eternal, for it spoke for all youth
and had for a passing moment turned back the tide
of years to that golden season for one who had
passed it by.
Music and memory—music and regret!
The idle song brought "tears from the depths of
some divine despair."
And yet not wholly despair. s
For out of the pain of the thought of what might
have been, and was not, out of the visions that had
faded into commonplace achievement, rose some-
thing that was not pain.
The triumphant refrain of the street song yet
echoed in the distance.
It meant to'the listener that youth was not all,
that later and better ldeams might be and be ful-
filled ; that the end was not yet and that some-
where, some time, it would be given him to "mend
life's broken chance."
The careless singer had brought peace as well as
pain and the restless one upon the pillow sent after
him a grateful thought.
" But he wondered long upon the mystery of the
many keys that open the hidden and long-locked
doors of the human heart.
NAVAL EXPENDITURES.
The leading powers in "maintaining the peace"
go steadily ahead with their preparations for war.
They spend millions upon millions of dollars upon
war vessels which must become obsolete in a few
years at the most. Think what this money would
do if invested in railroads, canals, highways, etc.,
to develop the natural resources of a nation!
In the year 1908 some 2fi0,000 tons of warships
of different classes were launched; to be exact. 350.-1
430 tons. This displacement is represented by
twenty ships, thus distributed. Ten battleships, 174,-
400 tons; one const defense battleship. 3.680 tons;
five armored cruisers, 58.700 tons; four protected
cruisers. 12,650 tons. The nations which have
launched these vessels number nine as follows:
Germany—Four battleships, Nassau. Westfalen,
Rheinland and Rosen, of 18.000 tons each; one arm-
ored cruisers. Blueher. of 15,000 tons; two protect-
ed. cruisers. Emden, 3,600 tons and Kolberg, 4,300
tons; total. 94,900 tons.
England—Two battleships, Oollingwood and St.
Vincent, of 21.000 tons each; one protected cruiser,
Boadicca. 3,400 tons; total. 45.500 tons.
Austria—One battleship, Erzcrhog-Perdinand, 14,-
600 tons.
Brazil—One battleship, Minas-Bereas, 20,000 tons.
Denmark—One coast defense battleship, Pcder-
Skram, 3.680 tons.
1'nited States of America—Two battleships, Mieh-
ig-an and South Carolina, 17.900 tons each; total,
35.800 tons
France—One armored cruiser, Waldeck-Rousseau,
14.000 tons.
Italy—Three armored cruisers, Amalfi. 10,100
tons; San Georgia and San Marco, 9,800 tons each;
total. 29,700 tons.
Japan—One protected cruiser. Mayami, 1,350
tons. • •
The big battleships will cost complete, not less
than eight million dollars each, and the building
of the ships themselves is a small expense as com-
pared to the manning, salaries, repairs and main-
tenance. For anything else such expenditures
would be considered outrageously extravagant and
impossible.
The president of the Chicago school hoard has
ordered the word "commencement" omitted from
the school programs this year. The word, he ar-
gues, means a beginning, whereas graduation is the
ending of school work. lie seems never to have
heard of the thecv.v that the graduation marks the
student's commencement of a new era in life.
VERSE FOR TODAY \
MAY
A golden sprite, escaping from Ua chain
Beyond the snow-capped hills, hath, In
its flight
Across the meadows, ere the morning
light,
J Rekindled earth to happiness again.
A vagrant note from Winter's broken
lute—
I'pllfted softly on a passing breexe,
JIath sounded, clartonllke, among the
trees,
Awakening echoes for a season mute.
I'p from Its grave In harsh, unfeeling
lold,
All incense-laden, sprang a lonely
flower,
And now in every shady woodland
bower
A million violets their grace unfold.
The feeble flicker of hope's dying flame
Hath caught life's glory, and from
ushes gray,
A brave ambition—promise of May—
Leaps with new rapture toward the light
of fame.

PERSONS AND PLACES
When Governor Gilchrist of Florida
referred in his inaugural message to the
legislature to Washington, Lee and Lin-
coln as the "three .rreatest Americans,"
he offended senator Broome. Mr. Broome
announced in the senate on Monday that i monthly
if the governor did not voluntarily with
draw the reference he would introduce a
resolution demaning Its withdrawal. He
thought that the words constituted a
reflection upon Stonewa 1 Jackson and
others.
Several valued contemporaries—the
Brooklyn Eagle among them—discussed
Dr. Depew's oration on the tariff with
deferential, unsmiling gravity, as one
of the events of the session. "The im-
patient horses attached to the car of
progress and prosperity are held In with
difficulty.'' fald the doctor In his pero-
ration, "because of their impatience to
enter upon the Marathon race of pro-
duction and development."
General Manager Thomas K. Scott ot
the Georgia railroad says that the strike
of the road's white firemen against the
employment of negroes is the beginning
of a camp« n by labor unions to destroy
the negro ah an industrial factor He
Fays that the plan has been smoldering
for five years and that this strike "is
the skirmish of the Brotherhood of Lo-
comotive Firemen and Englnemen in its
plan to drive the negro out of employ-
ment on the railroads altogether."
A gradual, though not uniform, im-
provement in the industrial and traffic
situation of the country Is indicated by
the leading commercial movements for
April, as reported to the Bureau of Sta
tlstlcg of the Department of Commerci
ond Labor. The coal, textile, and shoe
trades show a considerable upward trend
from the depressed condition prevailing
during the early part of 1908. Mov
mennts o! live stock, provisions and
grnln, on the other hand, suffered a con
slderable check Building operation
maintained the high record charcteristl'
of the earlier months. The traffic situa-
tion. as measured by the number of cars
handled by the various traffic assocln
tlor.B, also shows a turn for the bette
though the April figures of the current
year are still almost 10 per cent below
I those reported two years ago.

April 1908, with a iota* of 2,739,; 1G head,

Grain receipts during April at 14 prl

and 1907 \prll figures of 41,859.480 and
G6. 162.809 bushels. The volume of grain
receipts appears to have shrunk almost
GO per cent as compared with figures for
the preceding month, the shrinkage af-
fecting all important grains and grain
centers. Receipts at the same markets
during the eight months of the crop
season beginning September 1. 534.171.901
bushels, differ "but slightly from the cor-
responding 1908 figures, of o38,Z60..~>82

PNEUMONiA SECRET FOUND.
That mystery, pneumonia, which has
baffled the medical world so long, is it
was announced last night, being solved
by the commission of eminent physicians
from all parts of the country appointed
by }he health board In an effort to com-
bat the disease, pneumonia's Seath ra-
ti^ In recent years has become greater
tlmn that of the fatal rival, "the great
white plague."
Dr. Herman M. Biggs, who has led the
fight against the spread of tuberculosis
in this city, and at whose suggestion the
pneumonia commission was appointed,
told last night of the progress made.
To a reporter Dr. Biggs said:
"At the outset of our Investigations
some of us believed a great many things
about pneumonia, and many of those be-
liefs have been proven to be true by
Actual experiments In various cities, as
well as in different country sections.
"It has been proved that pneumonia
is infectious; and that it is caused by a
germ, the Pneumococcus. and that it
attacks the normally strong as well as
the weak with like fatlilty.
"The pneumonia germ, which is a
lancet-shaped creature, as germs go.
generally travels in pairs and is taken
into the system through the nose and
mouth. It remains, waiting its chance
to descend int othe lungs and begin It;
havoc. This chance comes when the
physical condition of the person is de-
pressed from an inslgniflcnnt attack of
influenza, measles, had cold, catarrh,
tonsilltls, or the like, once In the lungs
it propagates with marvelous rapldtty,
and the lungs soon become congested If
the congestion Is not relieved death Is
'In niAny respects there Is great simi-
larity between consumption and pneu-
monia. and the accepted treatment for
the former In many Instances proves ben-
eficial to the latter. However, the tu-
berculosis germ works slowly on the
lungs of the victim, while the pneumonia
germs works with amazing rapidity.
"V'neumonla has no terrors to the per-
fectly veil man. but those who think
themselves In the best of health some-
time}! are its readiest victims.
'The germ may be cArrled In the mouth
of a perfectly well person for as long
ss six months, waiting for him to catch
a cold or something the kind. In-
stantly It makes the most of Its oppor-
tunity."—New Tork American.
shows a progressive improvement and
was over half million tons larger than
during April, 1908. The anthracite ship-
ments during April, 5.891.176 gross tons,
fell below the unusually high total of th?
preceding month, the fears or a con!li<
in the hard coal region having passed.
The textile trade, judging from the
movement Of the principal raw materials,
shows a considerable Improvement. Thus
cotton takings bv American spinners for
the month totaled 375,944 bales, as against
301,638 bales in April, 1908. both northern
1 southern mills sharing in the in-
ase. The monthly wool shipments at
Boston aggregated 21.474.453 poundp, com-
pared with 1^.007,496 pounds during April.
1908.
The building record for the month, as
indicated by the value of permits grant-
ed bv municipal authorities in 100 leading
American cities. J85.285.131. was almost
per cent higher than for April. 19flv
1 shows a slight gain over the lnrge
total recorded of the preceding month.

ports the total number of Idle enrs within
