1 The attack by Indians on settlers cabin, and the emigrant train, or the 1 Deadwood Stage Coach are all features | of early life which marked the progress of civilization over our trans-Missouri country, and the school boy in studying the history of the America is familiar 1 the details of the massacres of those early times, but 1t remained for Colonel Cody and his co-Workers to present as q living, moving picture for both amuse-
 ment and instruction of old and young,
 realistic, mimic production of those stirring incidents and as Colonel Cody
 and the Indians employed in his com pany were themselves actors in those
 times, they are better qualified to pre-
 sent them truthfully than 1t would be for people who had not actually partici- pated in them. This season the manage ment of the Wild West, in addition, are presenting the brightest page in the his- tory of the American soldier, and the children of the children of to-day will
 be told all the stirring features of the furious charge of RooseVelts Rough
 Riders up San Juan hill in July, 1898, for by reason of Colonel Cody's enter prise he Is able to present not only for the entertainment but for the instruc- tion of the people of to-day, thrilling ly realistic picture of that famous charge, and in doing so also presents nearly one hundred active participants in that battle, including regular and volunteer soldiers of the United States, Cuban patriots and Spanish soldiers, all re-enacting through the life the part they took on that days fighting.
 Other interesting and instructive fea- lures of the Wild West need not be called specially to public attention, but there Is the company a number of new wards of Uncle Sam, who have hereto fore been homo incognito to the Ameri- can people. Theee people are a number of the islanders from Cuba, Porto Rico Hawaii and the Philippines, and their presence adds greatly to the picturesque features of this congress of nations and to its value as a school of anthro- pology.

 The greatest needs of the United
 States to-day are not more, but better citizens; not more territory, but better government and better development of what it has; not more, but better for eign immigration; better relations be- tween capital and labor; a better devel- opment of it's foreign commerce, and a larger foreign market for it's agricultu- ral products and manufactures; a better financial system, and speedy return of public sentiment to the conviction that this nations first duty and greatest use- fulness to the world consists in the pres ervation of civil liberty and popular government, in the fullest and best sense of those terms. In short, as ona has so aptly termed it, What we need is not more extension, but more inten- tion'
 "In the fourth chapter of the gospel, according to St. Matthew" writes Charles Francis Adams, q find this in- cident recorded: "The devil taketh Him (the Savior up into an exceeding high mountain and showeth Him all the Kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; and saith unto Him, All these things will I give Thee if Thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan. Then the devil leaveth Him, and, behold, an- gels came and ministered unto Him. . . It was a whispering to Christ to what among nations is commonly known as Manifest Destiny Now, if, instead of recognizing the source whence the temptation came, and sternly say- ing, Get thee hence, Satan,' Christ had seen the proposition as a new mission thought, in fact, that He heard dis tinct call to duty-and so, accepting a thrust upon Him, had hurried down from the exceeding high mountain and proceeded at once to lay in a supply of weapons, and to don de- fensive armor, renouncing His peaceful He would have done exactly what Mohammed did six centuries later.'

the saloon for beer, and to get the beer drinkers to take tea instead. Aside from that fact that the change will ben eft the people morally, it will give them money for other and better uses. Tea is nourishing and quenches thirst; beer and strong drinks irritate and inname and create rather than quench thirst"
 In order to show the practical working Of the tea mission the managers of the scheme have a plan for saving the money which under ordinary conditions would go for beer. Many tenement house dwellers spend about twenty-four cents a day for beer, that is, a pint three times a day. "This little sum-" said Colonel Hadley, "foots up $S760 a year. We want to keep that sum out of the rum shops and lay it away for the people"
 The saloon has been open only few days, but it has already a great many regular customers. They came there timidly at first, and ordered their tea in an apologetic way, but the tmidty wears off after few visits, and men who went regularly to the barrooms of that part of the city now go to the tea saloon, get their cup of tea and seem to enjoy the change Many of those who enter the place simply for the purpose of drinking tea are attracted by the music in the back room and remain for service, and others who go there to take part in the service become customers at the tea bar before they go away
 There are twelve furnished rooms on the upper floors of the house and these are rented "to such people as are desir- able" at the rate of $1 week. "The saloon is open every day from a. m. to midnight said one of the promot- CTS of the enterprise, land we think 1t is the only saloon to which an invitation to come early and stay late will receive the indorsement of wives and children" New York Tribune.

A PRIZED DECORATION.

There is a legend af1oat that the Shah of Persia has a certain decoration--the Ninth Class Order of the Wall-Eyed FL ephant, or something of that sort which he hands around when he runs short of cigarettes. Be that as it may, the ease with which American travel CTS secure such honors has given rise
 to innumerable quaint stories, one of the latest of which has special local
 interest. According to the yarn, a bright New Orleans girl was visiting in a sister city, and while attending a lit- tie society function she encountered a beau who had recently made q trip to Japan. Among the trophies which he brought back from the land of crvs- anthemums was an exceedingly spec tacular decoration, bestowed upon him heaven only knows why or how Like most people of similar good fortune, he was inordinately proud of the trin- ket, and on this particular ocasion he wore it conspicuously displayed on the breast of his coat. Whether such an arrangement might be considered eX- actly point devise for an ordinary re- ception is possibly open to debate, but the only fear that seemed to disturb the late traveller was that somebody would overlook the ornament. At any rate he had exchanged hardly dozen words with the New Orleans visitor when he lifted it delicately with his fingertirr. By the way Miss Blank" he said. "I suppose you have never seen anything like this before" 'Oh, dear me, yes" replied the young woman, glancing carelesly at the glittering gewgaw. i've have thousands of them at home every Mardi Gras" The knight of the Order of the Wall-Eyed Elephant went out into the conservatory to catch his breath-NeW Orleans Times-Democrat

WILD WEST WONDERS.

Colonel Codys Show with Big Street
 Parade Here Next Wednesday.
 A show in the ordinary sense is in- stituted solely for the purpose or amusement. But in Buffalo Bills Wild West and Congress of Rough Riders the idea runs parallel to that of amusement, is one of instruction, and to the carry- ing out of this idea every feature of the entertainment is made to bear part. History has been drawn upon to supply the subjects of each representation of the many scenes that form prominent parts of the program as given by Cody and Salisbury

cap. The attention of owners is called to
the conditions of the Gebhard handicap.
