"I Mall Magazine" dilates on the grace and:mr>ress:

We object to posing on a pedestal,but we do want our friends to knowa thing or two.

One thing: That many Manu-facturers have sold—to whom wedon't know, or for that matter care-winter woolens very much lighter inweight than ever before ;and further,goods with a large percentage ofshoddy, and mercerized cotton "ma-nipulated" they callit (got itinWallStreet).

The Fall suit you buy of us thisyear willbe the same weight as theone you bought last year.

Our standard has not changed oneiota either in weights or qualities.

Perhaps that may interest you!

That Millet ever received the oommissionhe? given much cause for wonder, since a Pope'svjf.'w-p nn art can scarcely be e.xpected to be '•cry

Mr Tomson's text Is full of similarly char-acteristic passages, bits of biography whichhelp us better to understand Millet both as a

Rousseau and the influence of the Romantic

There are many illustrations, all of\u25a0 alftones *aye the frontispiece, which is a•"ill photogravure from Millet's "Goose-D." In its tasteful cover of light green

Catf-kiils. and the hero is described as "a vig-primitive, and passionate man, a true son

Burges Johnson, the author of a number of

chCd rhymes that have been appearing In vari-

K. G. PRESCOTT LEAVES PANAMA.

Pannmn. Sept. 11.—

H. G. Prescott. formersuperintendent of the Panama Railroad, lefthere to-day for New-York. Mr. Prescott wasentertained at a dinner last ntjht by PresidentAmador.

PANAMA CANAL OFFICIALS RETURN.A number of Pan?mn Canal officials arrived here

yesterday from Colon on the steamer Mexico.Among them were W. E. Daucby, former'y actingchief engineer of the Zcnc, who has been stationedat the f'uleb'a cj?: (. K. l>avis. in charge of theZone waterworks: <'. A. Strom, ehle; mechanicalengineer; Chlrf .(ustiro 11. A. Gui'.ger. of t'r.eCourt of Ancou; Carlos Arosemena. secretary ofthe Panama Legation, and E. S. Bensjn. auditor of.the Canal Commission.

General Auditor Benson Returns After Or-ganizing Local Department.

Ernest S. Benson, general auditor of the Isth-mian Canal Commission and of the Panama Rail-road Company, arrived from Colon yesterday onthe Mexico, with Mrs. Benson. Both were in goodhealth and declared the isthmus a delightful place,undeserving of many of the unfavorable stories.

"Yellow fever." said Mr. Benson, "is decreasingsteadily, and, while there were two or three hun-dred men in the hospital when Ileft Colon, Idonot think there were more than three cases ofyellow fever on the isthmus. Of course, the nativePanamans scoff at the idea that the mosquito isresponsible for the fever, but, just the same, tb.9sanitary measures taken are changing the situa-tion.

"The housing and feeding of the employes of theCanal Commission is just now commanding atten-

tion and conditions are steadily improving."When he learned that J. E. Merkel received the

concession for conducting the hotels and sellingcommissary supplies along the Panama railroad,Mr. Benson said:

"My relations to the Southern Pacific and otherrailroads before assuming my present positionmade me familiar with Merkel and his methods infeeding large, numbers of m<*n. His experience,together with his organizjlion and facilities, pe-culiarly equip him for the tusk on the isthmus."

Mr. Benson's special mission to the isthmus wasto establish a local auditing force. "The account-ing machinery necessary In connection witli thecanal construction," he said, "is not materiallydifferent from that in railroad building. Ihave,therefore, drawn my men from various railroads tothe number of forty The total force now employedon the canal work is about ton thousand. The rail-road, which employ* about three thousand men,wns already provided with a local auditor whosereports come to New- York."

DECLARES ISTHMUS DELIGHTFUL.

Several bids as they came in were put in the of.flee safe in Washington pending the date foropening them. When the time came Major Gal-lagher, who then had the matter in hand, chancedto be in New-York, and until he communicated thecombination of the safe to Washington the matterof opening the bids could not be completed. Itwould have been obviously uniair to exclude thebids that through no fault of the bidders weretemporarily inaccessible.

Mr. Holley also complains that the bid acceptedwas higher as to some items than the bid of hiscompany, and that he should have been successfulas to those items. Iexplained to Mr. Holley thatowing to the existing conditions— the commissionbeing so far behind on its requisitions— it had beenthe rule to accept by class and not by item.

Mr. Ross, the purchasing agent of the commis-sion, so Mr. Holley informed me himself, spenttwo hours ft? an effort to make the situation clear,and Ioccupied half an hour with the same objectIn view. It may be well imagined that my pa-tience was severely strained when the result of itall was to have Mr. Holley reiterate his belief thatthere had been crookedness in awarding the con-tract.

When seen at the Waldorf-Astoria yesterday Mr.Shonts said:

Says Holley's "Statement Does NotSquare with the Fact."

Theodore P. Shonts. chairman of the IsthmianCanal Commission, takes emphatic exception to

some of the statements made by Alfred P. Holley,

general manager of the Frank S. De Ronde Com-pany, the unsuccessful bidder for a roofing ma-terial contract. Concerning the contention of Mr.Holley that the bid of F. W. Blra & Son. of EastWalpole, Mass., to whom the award was made, wag

received after the time for the reception of bidshad expired, Mr. Shonts replies that the statementdoes not square with the fact.

SHONTS'S STOUT DENIAL.

DANCER HELD FOR BIGAMY RELEASED.Mile. Heloise rle Armia. the Spanish dancer, who

ha* b*en locked up in the West Side rourt prisonfor several dnys. charged with bigamy, was re-leased yesterday by Magistrate Moss. No one ap-peared atainst the woia&n.

He Says There Is No Telling Where, Whenor Why Prices Are To Be Changed.

[ByTelegraph to The Tribune ]

Pittsburg. Sept. 11—Lee Shubcrt. head cf theBelasco theatrical syndicate, attended the openingof the new Belasoo Theatre here to-night. Beforethe show he discussed at length theatrical rates inNew- York and in other cities, saying in part:

There is no telling where, when or why theatricalprices are to be raised or lowered now. For ex-ample. "Little Johnnie Jones" has been playing inNew-York at a maximum price cf $1. Pittsburgpays $1 50 for the same star and company. Mar-garet Anglin. whom Iregard ns the greater emo-tional actress in this country to-day, and Pittsburgtheatregoers will agrep with me, 1 am sure, playshere for $1 s°. n«xt week will go to New-York, where her price willbe 12.

OLD RIDING MASTER ACCUSED.

Meantime the strike continues, and though an im-provement was reported et the postofßce yesterday,

there was still difficulty in getting the mails away.

At the stables of the New- York Mail Company it

was said that there was little or no disturbance.

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters, which

has a membership of fifty thousand throughout thecountry, will pay strike benefits of'l7.a week. Asthe strikers are less than two hundred in number,

Arbitrators Making Progress, Howeve?

Postoffice littleHampered.The conference of the arbitrators appointed to

settle the strike of the mail drivers was resumedyesterday and lasted several hours. Some progress

was made toward coming to terms, but it may take

several days to bring about a settlement. The

He never fluttered in his cage.Except when he was mo-ej to rageBy wives, umbrellas, and top hats.Allwhich he hated worse than cats.Though thrice compulsorily wived,He saw to it that none survived.The first one never took a bathAnd her he slew in righteous wrath.The next he thought a perfect guy.And so he pecked her in the eye;The laFt he killed Iknow not why.No offspring cheered his married life.Except an egg hi? second wife.Poor lady, took the pains to layAppropriately on r-hristmas day.But every egg. the fact is grim.Was but a oreaktast egg to him:So, feeling no parental bliss.He calmly breakfasted off this.The egg, so far as we could tell.Agreed with him extremely well,Like a!! the other things he ateExcepting once, a violet.Which caused him such internal painHe quickly threw it up again.He used to peck hi? owner's headIfhe remained too long in bed;And often patiently enduredTo have his talons manicured.Oddly enough, he could not bearThe dailyrite of morning prayerBut when the family knelt down.Would hop about from crown to crown.From ba«k to lack and neck to neck.With here a scream and there a peck.At last, when over twelve years old,H« swemed to feel the winter cold.His shred of blanket wrapped him round.But still he moped upon the groundRefusing to be vashed or fed.Until one day we found him dead.His little body, stiff and cold.But bearing still its coat of gold.We covered up with garden mould.And now »c hope his spirit sharesThe Joys of heaven without its prayers.

"Squire Phin" will be the title of HolmanDay's new story of Down East life, which A.S. Barnes & Co. will publish this month. Thecentral figure, Squire Phin, is a shrewd andhumorous country lawyer. The author is stillrusticating in his log cabin in the Maine woods,fishing and absorbing "local color."

Thomas F. Millard has been sent to Japan by

"Scribner's Magazine" to report on the present

conditions of the commerce and industries ofthe country in view of the heavy load put uponit by the expenses of carrying on the war. Inthe September number he contributes an articleen "The Financial Prospects of Japan,'' in whichhe discusses the means which the government

must adopt to meet her obligations.

Probably if there had been no "Foolish Dic-tionary" there would have been no "SillySyclo-psedia." The gentleman who disguises his iden-tityunder the pseudonyme of "Noah Lotfwouldnot have \u25a0written it, and there would have beennothing for Louis H. Grant to illustrate or for

the G. W. Dillingham Company to publish.From this we infer that the "Foolish Diction-ary" met a long felt want, and that the "SillySyclopaedia" will fill an aching void. Much of

it is so far-fetched that one wonders how theauthor who could write such fiat and pointless"copy" can be capable of so much, actually ifnot comparatively, that is clever and amusing.

And conversely we are surprised that a manwho is on occasion so witty should consider agreat deal of his word juggling as even faintlyamusing. However, there is no "Standard ofHumor." A "Joke" is funny only if it strikesone so. Like sound, humor exists only where itstrikes the appreciative ear. Fortunately for theJokesmiths, the ear of the general public seemsto be peculiarly sensitive, and almost any in-version of words or ideas will find some one tolaugh at it. On one page are the following: "AThing of Beauty— A joy forever until we get usedto it,"and "Amusement

—The hard work a man

does on the golf links to give himself an appe-tite for the sausage links." The first strikes usas rather clever. The second does not. Yetdoubtless there are many who will think the lat-ter definition rarely amusing.

NOT BAD TO TAKE.Ifthe girl that you're gone on fights shy of a kiss,

Don't grab one and run. or you'llrue it.March up to her mother and give her a smack.

Just to show her how nicely you do it.

We venture to protest against the economy

of effort which has led the author frequently togive us only one. rhyme to a quatrain. For

one thing, the Jingles would not have come soeasily ifhe had allowed them their full measureof rhymes, and the additional attention requiredwould have worked to the advantage of thematter as well as of the manner of his verses.It would have helped even the following:

THE RELATIONSHIP.Ifyou present your husband to the husband you

divorced.This form is universally approved

—Just say with easy graciousness when introducing

them,"This, Henry, is my husband onct- removed."

The pictures and rhymes that go together to

make up James Montgomery Flagg's latest non-sense book,

"'If,' a Guide to Bad Manners,"

issued by Life Publishing Company, admirablycomplement one another. Ifanything, the illustra-tions are more amusing than the verses. Itis,perhaps, too much to expect that every "funny"

idea that is dished up to us on a subject whichis apt to be humorous enough when treated seri-ously should be absolutely novel or sparklingly

clever in technique. Certainly not all of Mr.Flagg's jingles are either, and few, ifany, areboth. But he gets a great amount of expres-sion into his drawings, and a very considerableamount of "snap" into his rhymes. There arefew of the latter that do not suffer in being re-printed away from the illustration, but somestand the separation better than others, as:

most readily acquired from the comparison of con-crete things.

In his other essays, he urgently utters hisplea for Greek, which he considers in evengreater need of a kind word than Latin. Hisarguments are ingenious, ifnot exhaustive, but

are more likely to strengthen the belief of the

classicists than to convert the scientists.

ing iiis arguments on the lessons of physiologi-

cal chology. he contends that, not exceptingmathematics, "in early childhood, at least, the

etudy of language properly pursued may doir.oro than any other one thing to encourage
