COL. EASTMAN BURIED.
Remains Inferred at Green Bay, His
Former Home-Sketch Of
His Life,

Green Bay, Wis, March 25.-[Spe-
cial. 1.-The funeral Of the late Col. II. E.
Eastman took place this morning. His
remains arrived from Benton Harbor,
Mich, over the Northwestern road. DR..
j. l.. Hewitt, pastor of the First Pres
byterian church. officiated. The inter
ment was in WOodlaWn cemetery.
Col. Eastman came to Green Bay in
1910. He lived here until the war. On
November g. 1861, he entered the military
service as a major of the Second Wis
consin cavalry, and was promoted to lieu
tenant-colonel April 2, 1864. He came
home in 1864 on sick leave and was con-
fined to his bed for many months. Some
years after the war Col. Eastman re-
moved from Green Bay to Benton Har-
Dor, where he spent the remainder of his
life.
Mr.. Eastman formed partnership with
L. .. Howe, in 1915, but abandoned the
practice in 1916 and engaged in real
estate operations, by which he accumulat-
ed a competence in few years, to lose
1t again in commercial enterprises and
other unlucky adventures. He was dele
gate to the National Wing convention at
Philadelphia in 1913, and chairman of the
delegation, which voted every time for
Henry Clay as the nominee.
Col. Eastman was elected mayor of the
city of Green Bay in 1856 and reelected
in 1857. In 1857 he organized a COM
pany for the purchase of line of lake
steamboats, to run between this port and

Now I come to the last sketch. Here

He knew no pity. Paul stands before
him. Paul was a martyr. He suffered

was executed. The old building, the col
iseum, was crowded, tier after tier

thirsting for the Apostles blood; but was
Paul undaunted? No; he looked up
above Nero and his host, and saw the
King of Kings upon the throne; soon
would he be with him.
The e1ecutioner stepped forward; the
old Apostle speaks: Il am now ready to
be offered. and the time of my departure
is at hand. [ have kept the faith
The dreadful blow is given; Paul is
dead; but, no; his spirit lives; see it
mounting up-up to the throne, and all
heaven is moved, and welcomes Paul to
his home above.
You ask, is life worth living? Oh, yes;
if you live as Paul lived--for God and
humanity.

THE TIMID VIOLET.
How it Became the Flowsr of Napoleon
B1naparte.

How it Became the Flowsr of Napoleon
Banaparte.
At first sight it seemed as though that
imDeriouS ruler of the deStinies of Europe
could have hardly chosen as an emblem
a less suitable flower than the timid VIC
let with its air of humility. But the Sc
lection is perhaps explained by the fact
that it was during a period of reverses
that Napoleon made the choice. On the
eve of leaving France for Elba he said
to his friends: L shall return with the
violets," and this little sentence-a mere
chance eXpressiOn-Was sufficient for his
sympathizers.
Not only were the flowers worn by the
Bonapartists, men and women, as a
badge but violet. ribbons and jewelry in
the form of the flower were speedily used
to display their feeling, and Napoleon was
afterward spoken Of and toasted as Papa
la Violette" Do you love the violetT'
was the question by which an imperialist
might be known, for a simple reply in the
affirmative showed ignorance of the plots
for Napoleon's return to France; while the
answer: well. it will return in the
spring." indicated confederate and fell
low cOnspiratOr.
When it was forbidden by law to sell
portraits of Napoleon his friends ingeni-
ously evaded the prescription by publish
ing the picture of group OF vlolets with
their leaves so arranged that i'll their
outlines the profiles of Napoleon. Marie
Louise and the King of Rome could
readily be traced by the initiated.
When the end came and Napoleon was
about to depart for st. Helena, we are
told that he gave a violet to an English
naval officer-an intimatiOn, perhaps, of
neyer-to- be-fulfilled hopes of return to
his beloved France. During the Bour-
bon ascendancy it was dangerous to wear
a violet in public, as naturally it contin-
ued to be regarded as the NapoleOniC
flower. At the time of the Second en-
pire the popularity of the violet again
revived, and. singularly enough, when
Louis Napoleon was a prisoner in the
fortress of Ham package of violet
plants having arrived, some of the of
ficials were so busy planting them in pots
that the prisoner made his escape. This
incident probably gave further favor TO
the violet. and during the reign of Ma
poleon III. the violet trade flourished
greatly in France, 100000 punches. it
has been stated. being the annual sale
in Paris alone.-Philadelphi Press.

ARE SHOOTING PICKEREL.
Slaughter of the Fish in Madison Lakes
Calls Attention to the Law.

Madison, Wis, March pa new
lodging of the fish law has come to light
in this city and in it is involved the ques-
ton as to the meaning of the word Tex
plOslve," as used in the Wisconsin laws.
Men and boys have been standing on
the bridge near the university grounds
armed with guns of different character.
Below in the clear, shallow water are
thousands of large pickerel. The spawn
ing season is earlier than usual this year
and the fish are moving in great numbers
IN the marshes. From position on the
bridge the marksmen are able to pick out
pickerel and shoot it. Thousands of
this fish have been killed and the sport
continues
The law regarding the killing of fish by
explosives says: ''It shall be unlawful
and Is prohibited to take, catch or kill
any fish of any variety in any of the
waters of the state by means of dyna-
mite or other explosives, which, if eX-
ploded, would Or might cause destruction
of fish in such waters While "other ex-
plosives" are held by some persons to in
clude the use of guns of any kind, it is
doubtful whether the persons could be
made to suffer by that clause of law.
1t is a fact that so far no attempt has
been made to put stop to the killing in
the manner described and the shooting
continues with impunity, although the
Wardens are arresting those who violate
the law by use of other explosives.

A Sucn a pace?
! know a place
Where thou shouldst love to pause spac

For there nay Love-a maiden fair.
With eyes of blue and Silken hair
Each day doth go;
Yet thou below
In babbling ignorance dost flow,
Nor Ken nor care.

Thou DIST wean thy waters, whirling wild
Nor flow 50 feet
The main to meet:
But smile smiles in slumber sweet
! little child
Each bubble then wouldst gently break,
And Of thy breast a mirror make
Wherein she might
In coy delight
Her image view, and at the sight
Sweet pleasure take
Yet thou, perchance are no less wise
Than we. who oft too oft despise
Our gifts and powers
And precious hours.
And hurry past life'S fairest flowers
With needless eyes.
We too go seward borne along
Upon current swift and strong;
Some e'er are bent
On merriment:
On riches, honor, fame intent,
Some strive and thrOng.
Each deems he knows the nearest way
To happiness; yet every day
IN eager cry
Some wander by
The very goal for which they sigh
And toll and pray.

EUROPE'S ATTITUDE WRONG.
Commercial Competition Abroad Follows
Americas inventive Progress.

The recent invasion of foreign markets
by American manufacturers appears to
have created surprise and resentment in
the leading Industrial nations of Europe
On this side of the Atlantic people are
somewhat surprised that either of these
emotions should be manifested. American
inventive genius fOreShadOwed the ability
to achieve such u result and has conferred
great benefits upon those who are now dis
posed to resent its natural development.
What would Europe be now without the
electric telegraph, the telephone, the cleo
trio light Ghe sewing machine, the auto
matte harvester, the monograph? During
the time the United States has given
the nations of the old world these things,
what have they given Us in return? While
American genius has developed the type
writer, the type-setting machine, the
rotary press, the phOtO-engraving process
and the automatic Wirebinder, what has
Europe produced to match them? What
have England, Germany, France and Aus
tria been doing for the mechanical arts
while American enterprise and skill have
produced the cotton gin, the automatic
tooling machine, the rock-drilling ap-
partus, the travelling cranes, the electric
motors and the steam shOYelS that serve
them as well DIS ourselves?
We have had a few things from Eu-
rope, the BesSemer process and the ROent-
gen ray. We have lad a few improve
While we have showered upon the older
nations one great discovery after another
they have been kept busy following our
lead. And now they are surprised because
we have come into competition with them
because we threaten to drive them to
the commercial wall or compel them to do
something great on their own account!
Why, the very armies and navies of the
European powers are mostly representa-
tive of American mechanical genius, ex-
cept for the gunDowder and mariners
compasses, which they got from China
centuries ago. Their machine guns rifed
barrels, metal plating and revolving tur-
rets are American conceptions. Their re.
peating rifles and high explosives are but
notifications of the original ideas Of tenn
ing Yankee brains. Yet they wonder that
this very fertility of conception, this skill.
this energy which has given them so much
of all they have, has finally entered into
commercial competition with them, and
they resent the encrOachment!- Pittsburg

Zone of the secrets of the success of
the Boston team season after season,
both financially and artiStically, is due
to the policy of the Boston owners in de-
pending on sixteen or eighteen players
instead OF carrying a galaxy Of WOuld-be
stars" remarked Tom Brown Of the Sen
atOrs. These would-bes may twinkle in
the minor league, but the odds are at
least ten to one against their scintillating
in the big league. If club has fifteen or
eighteen men Of whom they are reason
ably certain, what is the use Of their ex-
perimenting with q bunch Of fifth-Wheels
and excess baggage? Many a sensitive,
conscientious ball player has worried him
self into release because he feared that
one Of the alleged phenOms in the club
was booked for his job. In 1889, when
L was with the Boston team, jim Hart,
who was our manager, carried on an ay-
erage fifteen or sixteen players. That
has been the average number carried by
Boston for the past twenty years, and
the best evidence Of its success is yeri-
fed by the brilliant achievements Of the
BGaneaterS season after season. Bill
Joyce and Tommy Burns have smaller
tWirling corps in point of numbers than
any team i'll the league this season, but
they have a goodly complement of sea-
soned material, especially Scrappy."
The new shortstop whom President
Vanderbeck secured is now in the list of
those signed for the Detroit club. The new
man will fill the gap that is caused by
the absence of ''Hunky" Hines He
played with the Paducah team in the Cen
trail league last year and attracted a good
deal of attention down that way by his
work The Detroit president was on the
lookout for him last fall, but Louisville
slipped in ahead and got hold of him. He
was announced on their list as a pitcher,
and he has done quite a little work in the
box. However, his usual position is
shortstop. and that is where he will be
tried with the Detroit team. When Louis
