LESSONS OF PATRIOTISM.
AS Long AS We Heed Them We Shall
Be a Happy People.

The true object OF the celebration OF the
Fourth OF July is the teaching of patriot.
ism, and for this purpose nothing is more
important than love for the flag. A flag
should be as much a part of every house
hold as the furniture, and should not only
be owned, but put out on every occasion
on which there is the least excuse. An
other point much neglected is the reading
of the Declaration OF Independence, the
greatest document in the history of the
world. Every boy and girl should be
familiar with its words and their meaning.
We are now liberating a downtrodden
people, and were forced into the arena for
their defense by this same Declaration OF
independence, which gave liberty to the
thirteen original States. 1t makes us the
champion of the oppressed, the chosen peo-
pie of the Lord. While we teach our
children to revere the flag and honor the
constitution of the land, we cannot fail to
prosper. Patriotism is the highest civic
sentiment, and the country whose people
fail to foster it is doomed to destruction
and decay. Happily, events have hitherto
always so shaped themselves that as a
nation we have never been allowed to for
get the blessings of free government, and
the highest thought of the land, the brain
as well as the Drawn, are even now putting
forth their utmost efforts to give a stable
government to fair Cuba-without hope OF
material reward, governed only by the
conviction that al men are by right free
and independent.

In rowing up the creek we pass a familiar

Many's the time we have crossed the river

Legendary past in the persons of Carvel
Cooley and his wife Charlotte. They kept
the old hostelry before the advent of the

me that all these river bottoms were then
in their possession, and that tradition saith
that Charlotte was the hest man of the two

marrying her homely nieces, of which she
had generous supply, to wealthy men.

When we read of an elephant hunter who
has been trampled to death in the wildS of
India we wonder at the foolhardiness of a
man who Will travel round the world and
endure all manner of hardships, in order to
court death in a far away Jungle. A man
does not have to make Journey to India
in order to court death in a manner equally
foolhardy.
Thousands of hard working men are daily
counting death in much more certaii,
form, without ever leaving their native vii
lagos or cities. They are the men who ncp
lect their health. They are the men who
court death from consumption or some
other deadly disease due to improper or
insufficient rourishment. The man who
suffers from bilious or nervous disorders
who has a weak stomach and an impaired
digestion, who has lost the power to eat,
rest or sleep, and who fails to take prompt
steps to remedy these conditions, is court

dining room, where he ate a scanty supper.
He then was conducted to the parlOr, where

Later Clark was overcome with grief, and
his lamentations and sobs could be heard

WHOSE WHEEL rs THISp
Burke Foreclosed on a Chattel Mort
gage Without Process of Law


gage Without Process Of Law
H. f. Burke of 1924 East First street was
tried yesterday by Justice Young on the
charge of petty larceny. committed on
March 18th. r. b. Parker, the complaining
witness, said that he had bought a Roscoe
bicycle from the defendant for $50. At the
time he paid him $40 down and S. some
time afterward, the balance being payable
on the installment plan. Last Sunday,
while he was at Agricultural Coursing
park, he missed his wheel and upon in
quiry ascertained that it had been taken
by youth named Arthur Bruner. When
Parker informed Burke of the loss the
latter disclaimed any knowledge of it..
This boy on tho stand admitted that he
had taken the wheel at the park under
instructions from Burke and turned it over
to him. 1t was put in the back room at
the shop. The boy testified that Burke
told him that If he was arrested for taking
the wheel he would see to it that he got out
and would stand by him.
All the facts brought out by the prose-
cution were admitted by the defense. 1t
was claimed by Burke's attorney that he
had perfect right to take the wheel at
any time, as the title remained vested in
him until 1t was completely paid for. In
support of this statement a promissory
note and agreement combined, signed by
Parker, was introduced in evidence and ad-
mitted, over the objection of the prosecu-
ton, by whom it was claimed that the
promissory note had added to it chattel
mortgage which was not drawn up in ac-
cordance with the laws of this state, and
was consequently void. The case was
taken under advisement.

HAS A VIVID IMAGINATION
An Old Lady's Fancied Bodily All
ments Drive Her Crazv

Mrs. Mary A. Soutenier of Belmont ave-
nue.. lady G6 years of age, wearing red
hood and black silk handkerchief over
her hair, was examined by Judge Van Dyke
and two medical men yesterday on A
charge of lunacy. The lady is native of
Maine. She showed many traces of re-
fnement but appears deranged on the
subject of her bodily ailments. She thinks
that she has recently successfully re-
moved cyst or tumor from her head by
means of surgical instruments which she
poked up her nose as far as they would go.
She said that she is strong worker and
as an instance of it related that she
thought nothing of reading Carlyle or ma
caulay for five or six hours at stretch.
Some of the neighbors of Mrs. Soutenier
said that she snuffed up quantities of CO.
caine in an effort to cure the imaginary
tumor in her brain. The lady offered to
undergo any operation, for the sake of sci
ence, to which the medical examiners
would think fit to subject her. She begged
fervently not to be sent back to the county
hospital as she said that she could obtain
neither comfort nor decent food there. She
said that she had kept a hotel at which she
had entertained the president of the United
States and she had at one time paid not :
for 1000 in Mobile, Alabama. endorsed
by her husband. A few more similar state
ments and her wild talk on medical maj
ters established the fact thoroughly that
Mrs. Soutenier has many ideas which make
an asylum safer place for her than the
city at large. She was ordered committed

LINDSAY'S TRADING
1t Showed Business Aptitude But It
Lacked Honesty

A complaint has been issued for the ar
rest of Wingate Lindsay for felony en-
bezzlement alleged to have taken place on
the 1st of September of last year. Lindsay
was arrested once for the same transac-
ton, but released on technical grounds the
principal one being that he had not en-
bezzled the horse and buggy which he was
charged with converting to his own use,
as he had been empowered by John Nelson.
the owner, to sell them.
This defect has now been remedied by
accusing him of converting the proceeds
of the transaction to his individual wants.
Old man Nelson gave Lindsay his rig with
instructions to sell it. This the man pro-
ceeded to do by trading the horse for an
other one and getting $3.50 to boot. Next
he sold the second horse for $35 and dis
posed of the buggy, too, advantageously.
Out of all the money thus received Mr..
Nelson only got $40, and, being unable to
obtain the rest, he wants revenge.
