Roosevelt cnt hls eye teeth In political leadership In the corrupt machine-run legislature of New York. lie could not have chosen a more thorough school for Instruction In the hidden, muddy springs of parties and politics. Ills exporlonco nt Albuny put realism into hls Idealism and made the academic reformer over Into the most Intensely practical politician we have had In the presidency. He decided nt the outset to act In each office as If it was to be the last that he ever would get, and for nearly 15 years ater he left the legislature, could not have been Roosevelt n elected to anything In the state of New York. For a long time he was shelved on the civil service commission at Washington, until a reform mayor of New York appointed him on the police commisso sion; but It wns soon single-headefar as the public could see, and that head was full of teeth for police grafters and law! realtors.

The entire administration Sighed with relief when at last he went off to loud bis Rough Riders. In five months he was back from Cuba In the far more troublesome role of a popular hero. The New York machine w as In such sore need of a good name to pull It through the pending election that it met him at the wharf and humbly laid nt hls feet the Republican nomination for governor.

The only thing to do with this wild engine was to turn the switch and shunt It on to the side track of the Ice presidency Roosevelt loudly protested that lie war tod to he governor. And whale Platt was trying to push him on to the national ticket. Which Stone le Beat? It Is strange that, after all these centuries of building nnd rebuilding, a recent project In London should set on foot a lively . controversy ns to what really Is the stone which best withstands that citys atmosphere. Perhaps a generation hence the answer will be none, says the London Chronicle, and the concrete system now on Its trial will have established Itself. Portland stone has been claimed generally was that citys most useful building stone, but there are doubters now. nnd the conclusion seems to be that science alone can counteract the ravages of London's atmosphere by artificial coating of exposed faces of the stone. Soldier Cashed A soldier presented at a Note. himself at the commonwealth treasury, Melbourne Australia, and said : I am a 20 note and want to be cashed. He stated that he hnd swallowed the note at Fleurbalx when he expected to bo captured.

The story Is that Ynmatodake. one of the greatest warriors In the history of the country, halted for a night at the Hinge of Shlmodnlra. Ho was weary of battle and strife, and sent out word to the village that he wished to be entertained by the prettiest girl there. Kemachtya was selected, and It Is told how she spent the evening singing and dancing for the warrior. He went on hls masterful way the next morning leaving the little maiden to mourn hls passing, and to give birth to hls child In due time. Now, the child died, as did Its mother, and the vltlnge erected the shrine, and every few years It Is rebuilt and made more beautiful But what no occidental can discover Is whether the shrine was built to remind the citizens of the militarism of the old days that trod with relentless heels on beggar and wealthy alike, and thns to pay tribute to a tragedy, or whether It was built to show that the great warrior honored the humble village by taking one of Its membership Into hls arms.
