the metal toes of Ada Rehan at the

silver had been offered to each of
them before, with evident chagrin, it
struck the Rehan bargain.

While her husband was congratulate

THERE is no mystery about the
cause of the decline of the salmon.
The fish has been mercilessly hunted,
and sawmills are allowed to render
the water unfit for it to live in.
Salmon-canning factories multiplied
so long as there was good profit in
the business. When the scarcity
first began to be felt, instead of lead
ing the Gamers to take measures to
protect the fish, it lead only to more
strenuous efforts to take all that
could be caught.

A Brave soldier.

One of the bravest men who ever
carried a saber," said Lieut.. John
OConnell, was Col n. J. Burke. who
organized Company X, of the Missouri
militia. He was born soldier, and was
as fearless as lion. For his gallantry
displayed at Wilson creek and Boonvillt,
he was promoted to be Captain OF the
Fourteenth Regulars of the Thirty
third regiment of Illinois. When he
took charge of the company it was very
poorly drilled but by his energies
the company became one Of the
best disciplined in the army
| often thought him IRA
tional, for at the battle OF Shiloh
he led MS on n charge against over
whelming odds His horse, which was
shot from under him, was pierced by
tifty-seven bullets, and, though the
Colonel had several bullet holes in his
clothes, he came out unframed AT
the battle of Chattanooga the poor
fellow met his fate A ball shattered
his left leg, which he had amputatcd.
and a few days afterward he died. We
will visit his grave at Calvary cemetery
to-day aud refresh the memory OF his
gallantry"

STATESMEN in France, arrested for

accommodations are not suited to the
tastes of distinguished gentlemen

THERE is no good reason why citi-
zens or the official guardians Of the
public peace should tolerate in col
lege students, because they are col
lege students, a degree of rowdyism
which would not be tolerated If in
dulged in by other young roysterers.
Still less is there good reason why it
should be tolerated and condoned by
the faculty of the university. The
faculty does not permit il within the
precincts of the university. 1t has
the power to prevent it elsewhere if it
will, by penalties which the students
lear much more than they fear fines.
