The history of France is full of great
fighters, all the way up to Napoleon,
the gentleman who travelled over Eu-
rope, owning it as he went, and leav-
ing relatives and friends on convenient
thrones. If any one revives the theory
that Napoleon was not French, but
really an Italian, remind him that the
men who followed Napoleon and did
the fighting were French anyhow.
Every American would have loved
Duguesclin. Think what Frenchman
he was. He could beat anybody at
any kind of fighting and kept at it all
the time. When the Spaniards held
him prisoner he whiled away the time
challenging and killing of young Span
iards Spain let him go pretty soon.
How can we help respecting the coun-
try that raised DuguesclinY
Or do you like quiet heroisIn, with
nobody to cheer and no band playing2
Then consider the case OF the Chevalier
d Assas With nobody near but half a
hundred foes with spears at his breast,
he shouted warning to his sleeping com
rades until the accumulation of spear
heads in his throat made it necessary
for him to stop. Kansas City Times.

confectionery palace and ice cream
parlors next door are about COM
piete. The manufacturing depart
ment occupies the rear, where uIree
artists compound the delicacIes of
the art that lures young and old to
this establishment. Here are made
all the goods sold on the counters in
front and considerable for grow
ing jobbing trade.
The parlors next in front are
nicely furnitured and will comforts
bly, seat forty to sixty people for
creams, ices, or oysters served in
any style. The shelving, show win
dows and counters in the salesroom
are finished in cherry aud redwood
oiled. The show window is the
largest in the city-a twelve-foot
plate glass containing displays in
the confectionery line that people
travel miles to see. A siXteen-foot
marble counter just put in is for
serving ice cream soda. The whole
is heated by hot water and nicely
mirrored. 1t is the most perfectly
appointed place of the kind in the
capital city. These young men are
fine examples of what Salem is as a
place of business, as they began in a
very small way few years ago.
UPSTAIRS

Go Ahead and Pave.

The talk on the street about Other
kinds of pavement is not to the
point. What has been done has
been as well and carefully done as is
likely to be the case with whatever
else may be proposed to be done
The thing to do is to go ahead and
improve the streets with good curbs
and cutters, tile drainage and a good
gravel roadway.
The city's finances, nor the pow
erty of street railways, nor colleges.
should be interposed as an argu'
ment. These bodies are as we'll of
as they are likely to be with more
conservative policy OH streets. They
will be more benefited by the in.
vestment than any citizen is likely
to be. Their objections should not
be a serious obstacle.
Complaints of citizens over OPP
preston by reason of expense are
not really objections, because they
will never be avoided or obviated.
No improvement at public expense
can be projected that will not op-
press some one in destitute circum-
stances, or catch some one short of
funds that will suffer thereby. Such
are the eXigencies of life.
1t should be remembered that this
plan of street improvement is the
plan of the conservative element.
1t is the proposition Of the men
who are slow to favor unnecessary
improvements. 1t is plan of street
improvement drawn ap under their
own direction and reluctantly con-
sented to by more radical progress
sionists. The conservative elements
have not only been fully consulted
but their own idea has been accept
ed and they must be relied upon to
sustain their own child to a man,
or run the risk of being declared in
sincere in all their proposals here
after. 1t is to be hoped the talk of
changing or abandoning the present
plan does not come from the men
who originated it.
Salem should now go ahead and
pave. Salem is the only city on
the coast to indulge such an expense.
In spite of the shrinkage and con-
traction in values all over the north
west coast Salem values have held
up and Salem has contrived to grow
as has no other city Of its size
Salem should now GO ahead and i'm
prove her streets.

December Just before. OF the eight trees
those of the Prince of Wales and the PIN
cess Alice have grown most luxuriantiy;
little distance away the Queen pianteu
the parasol pine. which is her memorial OF
her husband.
In another place are the trees commsmo-
rating marriages-the trees OF the frince
and Princess of Wales, Of the Duke and
Duchess Of Edinburgh. of tho Duke and
Duchess Of Connaught, OF the Duke and
Duchess OF Albany, and Of the Princess
Beatrice and Henry OF Bsttonberg. 1t is
in the shade Of these trees, whose foliage
murmurs the memories OF happy times,
that the Queen likes to take tea during the
hot days Of August.
Now il Is the new generation when IS
taking its turn at tree-plantIng IN TINS gar
den devoted to royal highnesses. Inc
children OF the Prince OF Wales and OF the
Duke of Edinburgh have the place OF honor.
But the invading family OF Prussia casts
not a little of its shade upon SOIL whicn
should remain exclusively for British.
Although the children OF the Queens
daughters are not represented, the descent
OF the Empress Frederick has taken root
there. The Princess Victoria of Prussia.
her sister. the Princess Sophia, aud the
Prince Waldemar, who died in 1873. have
each tree. The collection lacks nothing
but the tree of the Emperor William.
After visiting this private garden at Us
borne, one can explain the dislike whlch
Mr.. Gladstone inspires in the Queen. ihe
great statesman finds pleasure IN cutting
down trees: the Queen gets her enjoy
ment IN the planting OF them.
