 "So. l don't pretend te pose as prominent humanitarian or disciple of the Henry Bergh school" explained a certain St. Paul real-estaJe magnaJe to a Pioneer Press man, but l certainly do not approve Of unnecessary cruelty Co animals, insects, or even reptiles. The disposition to torture any animate object for pure cussedness stamps g man as about ten centuries behind the present era of civilization. I received an object lesson in thls matter when 1 was a boy. It was aiOng in the eos and was living in Olmsted County, this State. The ZUmbro river vas remark ably good ground for fsh-spearing in those days, and party of us were one day floating down toward the falls in hst-bottomed punt and jabbing away in dustrioGsly at stray suckers, pike. sheephead, and an occasional luska- longe. There was a barefOoJed chap along with us named StahsbuEy- Chariey Stsnsbary-and he svailsd himself of an opportunity to drive his foar-pToaged baFpO0n LAEpAEA kuO hAGA St all AA4- uocent mud-turtIe that happened to be in uRlucky proximity to the boat No body laughed except Stansbury then he hauled in the Ofeading reptile and kicked it of into the bottom of the punt. After few minutes Cf impressive silence, and while every one was at- hentiyely watching the water, the wounded turtle managed to crawl up and nip a goOd-sized mCEthful out of Stansbgry's heel. The first intimStiOn we received Of such retribuJiye justice was yell from SJansbEry like Brule Sioux war-whoOp, and the boy sprang into the dark waters of the Zumbro.

The Improved Order Of Red Men last
night celebrated the 400th discovery Of
America with gorgeous parade in,Phil
delphia. All the local tribes had floats
representing various scenes, some histor
zeal and others merely forest scenes.
There were also floats from visiting tribes,
notably that OF Dakota Tribe, Of Cam
den, N. J. All Of the floats were gotten
up In true Indian STYLE and some were
beautiful and historical The most not
able were those representing the Land
ing Of Columbus, the Rescue OF John
Smith BY Pocohontas," and "Penn's
Treaty with the Indians. In addition to
those on the floats there we're several
thousand braves on foot and large
number on horseback, while such distin-
guished visitors as the great chiefs Of
New Jersey, Delaware, District OF Col
umbia, and two or three other states
who were present In carriages, as were
also the members Of the Great Council Of
Pennsylvania and the Great Council Of
