"The United States Are." Harpor‘s Weekly. It soems to be practically imposâ€" sible to convinte some persons _ of what ought to be sellâ€"evident, nameâ€" ly, that the text of the Constitution of the United States cannot be alterâ€" ed or amended in the slightest parâ€" ticular except by the machinery for emendation _ expressly provided _ in the text of the document itsell. A paragraph is going the rounds of the press to the effect that the question whether the "United States" should be regarded as a plural or as a sinâ€" gular noun has been definitely setâ€" tled by the Committee on Revision of the Laws, which, it seems, in reâ€" viewing the Federal Statutes, has presumed. to decide that the United States is. No committee of â€" either House of Congress has the power to decide the question, nor would an act of Congress possess the reâ€" quisite authority. Tnat question is settled by the Constitution itself. * * + Tho last time when the dicâ€" tion of ourâ€" Federal organic _ law could bo charged in the minutest parâ€" ticular, except by a constitutional amendment, was when, in the last days of the Philadelphia Convention, the documont was referred to the committee on style. In the text reâ€" ported by that committee, â€" and adopted by the convention, the term "United â€" States" is a plural noun ; and so it must remain until the Legâ€" islatures or State conventions _ of threeâ€"fourths of the States shall deâ€" eree otherwiso. We may add that had the committee on style ventured to make the "United States" a singular noun, the change would have forithâ€" with provoked protest from the Philâ€" adelphia Convention, for the reason that the whole theory of State Rights would have been obviously inâ€" volved. The Constitation would neyvâ€" er have been adopted by the requiâ€" site majorityâ€"nine Statesâ€"had the term descriptive of the proposed conâ€" federation, to _ wit, the "United States," been made a singular noun.

( "Some years ago my business took me into one of the typical western boom towns. 1 was in a gambling room there one night when I heard the sharp command from the doorâ€" way : "*Hands up? "Standing in the «door were two masked men and both had revolâ€" vers io each hand and were covâ€" ering the crowd. At that time I woul«dl have sworn that both of the holdâ€"up men had picked me out and were looking straight at me, as well as pointing their guns my way. After the guide explained the Vatâ€" ican picture to me I felt doubtful about this. But the explanation came a long time later. At the particular moment of the holdâ€"up I didn‘t have the least doubt that I was covered. "The next day I left that town and the memory of the holdâ€"up gradâ€" uaily grew dim until years after when 1 was wandering through the art galleries of the Yatican. Then I saw: a picture which recalled it most vividly. It was «@imply the picture of a man with a mask, but the eycs behind that mask looked directly inâ€" to mine with almost the aame ficree directness as had those of the holdâ€" up wan in the gambling room of the little Western town so many thouâ€" sand â€" miles away. "I walked to one end of the room and looked at the picture . The efâ€" feect was the siame, the eyce were looking straight «into mive. And this was truo no matter in what part of the rowim I stood. Then I asked oll:)o of the guides for an explanaâ€" tion. "It was «simple enough, after it was onee explained. The mask which covered the man‘s face of course was black. But around the eye holes a smull white rim was drawn. The contrast between this white and the black of the nask produced an optiâ€" cal illusion which made it â€"appear that the masked man was looking straicht into the (‘.‘s of the ob "The robbers got what they wanted and escaped. I was surprisâ€" ed at the way the crowd had acted. They certaizly woere all well armâ€" ed and used to quick action with their weapons. "Well, it was plain that the man who covered the crowd couldmwt have kept looking directly into the eyes of more than ten men strung along the wall at the side of the room. 1 knew he had been looking at me. So I put the statements of my fjellow victims down as someâ€" what in the nature of bluffs, inâ€" tended to cover their lack of courâ€" age at a mighty critical moment. cal dllusion which made it â€"appear that the masked man was looking straight into the ees of the ob server. "In the cass of the holdâ€"up men it is not likely that they had gone to the trouble of painting _ small white rims about the eye holes of the}r ma ske. But the white of their skine would be a sufficient conâ€" trast to the black of the masks to give the same effect. And it \s an effect which makes a man quite wille ing to keep his hands up when you know that the owner of the cyes which appear to be looking straight into yours ha« a loaded revolver in hiq« hand, and is perfectly willing to use it. 4 T * *A "When â€" the excited â€" liscussion which followed the affair had sort of simmered down, every man in that crowd made the same stateâ€" mentâ€"heo had been looking for a chance to draw his gun, but the masked man in the doorway _ had been looking «dlirectly into his eyes and in such circumstances a move suggestive of gun play would have been practical suicide.
