one would think that in the course Of
years the gold brick swindle would play
out, but not so. Jules GARNER French
man, who landed in New York and who
has been in America but few months,
is one Of the "sadder but wiser" class.
He advanced all OF his little fortune. TO-
900 francs on five gold bricks" and when
they were taken TO the United States as
sayer the other day they were found to
be copper. tin and zinc, without one par
ticle OF gold. And now GARNER says he
does not know what to do about Il. OF
course he doesn't. The man who lets
himself get caught that way rarely stops
TO think that unless there is some chance
OF catching the swindlers the best thing
he can do is TO keep quiet and not let
Il happen again.

Springfield (Mass.) Republican Qnd).

The country to-day is as much opposed
to McKinleyism as it was in 1892. 1t is
the robber barons who are promoting
Dingleyism--a worse form of McKinleyism
and they are preparing for themselves
a terrible overthrow. Meanwhile, apos-
tates from democracy are doing nothing
practical to stay their hands.

There are too few men of the Holman

A VETERANS GROVE.
Committee on Parks Gives q Hear
ing at City Hall.
Several Prominent Grand Army Men
Supported the Project

Yesterday afternoon the committee on
parks visited Roger Williams Park and i'm
the evening gave hearing upon the
petition of the Union Veterans Associa-
tion for place to be set apart where the
veterans could plant trees and which
should be known as Union Veterans
Grove. This is "a matter OF great interest
to the veterans and their idea Is TO plant
one tree for each Grand Army post and
veteran association IN the city When the
hearing was called to order by chairman
Jones there were several Grand Army men
present.
Colonel Daniel II. Ballou was the first
advocate OF the enterprise and he cx-
planned that the veterans had brought
themselves in close touch -with-the -chil.
drcn and had deep appreciation of the
beautiful ceremony OF Arbor Day. They
desired TO further bring themselves I'm
touch with the children and for this pur-
pose they want the space for the Union

"a radius Of five points. A statue of n
soldier of the ranks will surmount the

cost the city about 5000. Colonel Ballou
said the park commissioners favored the
location selected.
President David :. Ray Of the Veterans
Association said the veterans would work
in harmony with the park commissioners
and he also advocated the enterprise Mr.
Taft, a delegate from George III. Brown
Post, also urged the granting of the pcti
