A HUNGRY MANS DEVICE
Thomas Williams, a Shoemaker,
Breaks a Window in the
City Hall.
He Wanted Justice and Thought it
Better to Destroy Public
Property.

A shapbiIy dressed little man with wild
starin eyes went into the north corridor
OF the City Hall leading from Larkin
street about o'clock yesterday afternoon.
and when he was opposite the Office of the
police property clerk he stopped and de-
liberately threw cobblestone through
one of the windows, smashing the glass
in pieces.
Policeman Wagner heard the crash and
running along the corridor, placed the
man under arrest.
What did you do that for?" asked
Wagner.
81 want justice, was the reply. 81 am
out of Work and starving and don't know
where to go.
''But why did you break the Window"
well, thought it was better to destroy
public property than private property, as
no one in particular would suffer by it."
Up to this time his reasons were intelli-
gible, but when Wagner took him before
Captain Healy and he was asked the same
questions he talked wildly about being
swindled out OF his worldly possessions in
Sacramento four years ago by the help OF
the detectives and police there.
AZ want Justice" he kept repeating, "for
the wrongs done me, and | mean to have
it"
Captain Healy instructed Wagner to
take him to the City Prison and placea
charge of malicious mischief against him.
He gave his name as Thomas Williams, a
shoemaker, 40 years of age.

for generations to come as classic OF Ameri-
can patriotic literature.
Cleyeland said in the course of his speech,
'sThe best of all is we educate people IN
America who are able to govern themselves"
He then planted his thumb on the button
that set in motion the machinery OF the great
exposition. When this was done 1ags began
climbing the f1agstaffs, but the first flag that
rose was flag OF no country-the Papai fag
the second, the flag OF Spain; the third. Old
Glory.
And when saw my flag sandwiched between
these two flags I said Certainly history re-
peats itself 4 symbol of truth and purity was
likewise placed on the hill OF Calvary"
Under which flag shall we live-under which
shall our children live? This is very 1mpor-
tant question.
But if there be anything at all in the signs OF
the times it is going to require all the ehorl
and power OF the American people to perpetu-
ate the flag in all its glory. l go back 10 the
time when our Government was organized.
l follow our early fathers through their
ancient deeds down to the time they made the
British lion bow down at Yorktown. Remem.
Der when Washington said, put none but
Americans on guard tonight"
When he said this ne did not only mean
native-born Americans: he was broader Ih an
that, for many born on foreign soil are often
times more patriotic than those reared here.
The foreigner is one who loves the institu-
tions of other lands better than our institu-
tions OF America. The foregn-born who be-
comes q citizen loves the institutions OF this
land better than any other land on earth.
In the organization OF our Government our
fathers builded more wisely than they knew,
yet at the same time they planted the uDaS
tree, whose poison we now inhale.
They said we should invite the inhabitant OF
every land to come and make home with u.s.
And this was wise. All they required of these
visitors was that they absolve themselves from
allegiance to any foreign potentate or king.
To those people who come here TO educate
institutions are we indebted for our mighty
Nation. These people who came from 1888 TO
1920 did not come to settle down for the good
OF our form OF government, but rather the re-
verse.
So the Congress of that year $500, discover
ing this, set q check on the incoming of Leople
to our shores. That Congress of 1920 was q
body OF men who legislated not for favored
few, but for an entire republic.

you assail every star in that flag. and when
you assail that you are traitor TO the best
Government on the face OF the earth.
The men who are ready at any time to, take
this flag out on the field OF battle, receive the
salutation of the god OF wer and the praise OF
millions.
These ignorant foreigners not only assail the
privilege of free speech, but they also Int up
their Shiny hands to attack the American
school system.
Loyalty does not consist in saying; loyalty
consists in doing. l measure mans Loyalty
to the public-school system by what he does
for that system. And if he IS loyal he will,
notwithstanding the Catholic purgatory, put
his children in those schools.
When we sing THE Land OF the Free there
comes ringing up from every patriotic breast,
"Since Christ died to make men happy, we viii
die TO set them free"
We all ought to love this flag more than we
do and let US maintain that every inch OF
flag.
Teach our children that no Irish flag shall
be waved i'll this country. Teach them that
no Italian flag shall wave, and that no Papal
flag shall be tolerated. Teach them to love
free speech and noble independence. Teach
them to be men and women.

Her sunering Faded.

The Fossil Journal tells the story of
little Banna Knox and the efforts to save
her by skin grating:
On Thursday, June IL. 1896, Banna
Knox, third daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
George Knox, died at Fossil, Or, aged 6
years, months and four days.
Little Banna sustained the injuries
which resulted in her death, through
being accidentally burned at the Knox
farm at Lost Valley, on March 10Th last
She was playing In the yard when her
clothes caught fire from the embers of
pile of rubbish that had been burned
the day before, and on which the child
sat down thinking there was no fire left
in them. When she found herself afire,
she became frightened and ran in an
opposite direction from the house, so
that she was fearfully burned before her
mother caught her and wrapped a
blanket around her, thus extinguishing
the flames.
DIR. Howard was called from Fossil,
and after examining the burns, informed
the parents that her only hope of life lay
in skin-grafting, and advised them 10
move her to Fossil 30 that she could be
under his constant care. This they de-
cided to do, and SO, when the child was
able to be moved, two weeks after the
accident, eight sturdy, noble fellows
tenderly carried the little one on a COW
cred litter to Fossil-twenty miles over
the mountains through snow, mud, rain
and swollen creeks.
Grating was commenced and con-
ytinued about four weeks, during which
time the skin took hold and spread, and
would soon have covered the whole sur
face of the sores-about one foot wide
by two feet long on her back, hips and
legs-had it not developed that the burns
were so deep that no human aid could
save her. The whole flesh was burned
off the hips and the fire must have pen
etrated to the kidneys, as Bright's dis
ease soon set in, and this it was that was
the immediate cause of death, which,
however, was hastened by severe at
tack of la grippe, which at the same
time prostrated the other members oi
the family, who were weak and worn
out with incessant watching over their
suffering loved one. Loving friends
from their bodies supplied the skin for
grating.

Breeding for wr,nkles.

Alex. G. Ogilvie finished shearing this
week, and the shearers are unanimous
in saying that his clip is the finest they
ever sheared, and some of them have
shorn sheep for years in Montana and
California. Alex has been breeding his
sheep for this for years, and he has got
there at last; but is not quite satisfied
yet, and expects by breeding his best
ewes to the best bucks in the state to at
tain even finer wool still. Years ago he
and his neighbors, who also had very
hne sheep, were breeding for wrinkles,
but they have learned new wrinkle
since then, and that is that they can get
finer wool and more of it, without
wrinkles.-Fossi Journal.
