The Balkan Armistice. But as the other three members of the Confedernoy have signed the armistice, Greece will doubt- less be persuaded to do so also. The armistice being limited to eight, days, the Balkan States must immediately expose their hands and show how they wish the map of Southeastern Europe to be changed. This is where the danger of a big conflagration ** comes in, and it is sincerely to be. hoped that the pourparlers which have already taken place among the interested Powers have result ed in an agreement on this subject which the belligerent States may!!! Au be persuaded to adopt. The nows 7 contained in the telegrams during the past few weeks does not lead one to expect that Turkey will be mitin prepared to accept humiliating A terms, and unless the Allies are disposed to considerably abate the demands which the telegrams T have foreshadowed there is no certainty that the present effort toget torminate the War will succeeday th

No kind of effect that, consequent upon the dinaare geun can resist resignation of General Uyehara, ho Minister for War, the Saionji Cabinet has resigned. General Usebara's resignation was caused by his failure to induce his col- leagues to agree with him in his proposal that an additional two Divisions of troops should be stationed in Korea, and the re- signation of the Cabinet is stated to be owing to their inability to find a successor for the post of War Minister, presumably believ ing that the country is either op posed to their policy or that they require a mandate to justify their gam action. The General's action is understandable but that of the Cabinet is not quite so clear, un-on less the subject has aroused much more interest in Japan than is da generally believed by those who, Fu residing in other parts of the world, are guided by the state ments that have been, from time ⠀ine: to time, communicated by the 17 Press,

Modern Frankensteins Nor is it fair to draw sweeping conclusions from, and to "base exhaustive generalizations, upon, s the moral laches of a man like vy Johnson, condemnatory of sport and athletics as a whole. If sport and athletics are so brutalizing as their enemiss frequently con tend, how is it that the most hu- mane peoples in the world are those among whom these activo ties are most widely practised→→ America and Great Britain to wit? There is a vital distinction between the hardening process and brutality Boxing, wrest ling, and other branches of sport certainly tend to produce men: who are not afraid of a little pain and do not faint at the sight of blood, but, they have never yet produced a man who loves to in fliot pain for its own sake; the hired assassin and the bully are not the spawn of clean sport.
