R WOMEN CRUEL?

Is IL true that a similar feeling animates
a woman's mind, when she wears a part or
a bird on her hat, as thrills the savage
Indians heart when he wears the scalps
taken in warfare at his belt? Who says so?
The worms eat I'D rose leaves and rose
buds, our nasturtiums, wistarias, sweet
corn and cabbages, while bugs play havoc
with various forms of useful vegetation.
Is this because the birds lave been so
widely destroyed for millinery purposes?
When a prosecuting attorney walks along
the highway and, merely for pastime or
practice, shoots a robin with his rifle. that
is not for millinery purposes. Does he know
he is committing a IS Unable offense?
Brother Soenso, a church officer, is he
cruel or t%houghtless when he hearkens
somewhat to the promptings of "Old
Adam" (poor, traduced old ADAM, or to
the voice of "the woman who was given
TO him. as a wife, when he shoots a robin
in the cherry tree hat is eating "his"
cherries?
Some papers are offering prizes of rifles
to boys, and the birds present. TO those
not properly instructed, a tempting target.
Do they only shoot sparrows, English
sparrows?
Are men cruel? Or are they needlessly
bumoring the whims of fashion and wom-
en-. when one man-milliner, proprietor of
an extensive establishment. sends out or
ders to nave twenty thousand birds Sc
cured?
Do not do 1t, my brother; do not shoot
our best friends. Do not do IL sister; do
not wear a piece of one of our best friends
on your hat.
Do this, brother, sister. Go forth on a
grand mission, right in your own %neighbor-
hood. a mission of enlightenment. You are
greatly privileged in that you read this in
structive, high-toned newspaper. Some are
not so favored; they do no take this Jour-
nal. Lift up your voices like fountains
against a great wrong. Rebuke, reprove,
exhort, as the case demands, with all pa
tience, thus lending your good e~ndeavors.

this latter-day slaughter of the inn%ocents.

They rode into battle at break of the day.
With sashes and saberS and gonfalons gay,
The clashing of harness, the flashing of steel,
The beat OF the drum and the trumpet's loud
peal.
Not a heart nor an eye but was merry and
bright,
And the peoples were white.
All crumpled and silken and snowy they grew
In a tangle of grasses, starred over with dew.
But the wheels of the cannon above them were
rolled.
The hoofs of the horses struck deep in the
mold.
And trampled and tattered at fall OF the night
Were the peoples of white.
They lay in the meadow distilling their sleep
Till the soldiers were wrapped in a slumber so
deep
That the call Of the bugle would never unclose
To visions OF glory their lids OF repose.
The mist drew a veil Ger the brows OF the dead,
And the poppies were red
Both scabbards and Sabers have crumbled to
dust.
And roses have bloomed from the bayonet's
rust.
But unbleached by the sun. and uncleansed by
the rain.
The crimson OF blood must forever remain
On the blossoms that over the battlefield spread,
For the peoples are red

1756. During the American revolution he
was a loyalist in America, and made a
fortune from the sale of vessels brought
to New York as prizes. Much of this he
lost in his forced withdrawal when peace
was declared. Returning to Scotland he
engaged in travelling about Great Britain
at his own expense and studying roads.
In 1911 he addressed a memorial to the
House of This led to the adop-

was born at Philadelphia, Feb. Is, 1929, and
was educated at the University of Penn

King of Scotland would employ no man
in his house, so he may as well push
on. But Jack insisted that he would
employ him, and at length the girl
consented to go and let the king know.
When the girl went away Jack put on
his wishing cap and wished the knives
and forks secured, and all at once the
stack of knives and forks that were
piled ten feet high was secured as
brightly as new pins, and though the
King of Scotland did not want to en-

Jack had secured all the big stack of
knives and forks, he agreed to keep
him. But first he brought down his
three daughters to see Jack, until he

The King of Scotland was very much
troubled, and he consulted with his

that he should at once give his three

GENERAL RESPONSE
To Telegrams of Coincidence and Offers
 of Aid

Galveston, Tex, Sept. 12.-To the Associ- ated Press: We are receiving numerous tel egrams of coincidence and offers of assist ance. As the telegraph wires are burdened, we beg the Associated Press to communi- cate this response to all:
 Nearby cities are supplying and will supply sufficient food, clothing, etc., for immediate needs. Cities farther away can serve us best by sending money. Checks should be made payable to John Sealy, chairman finance committee. All supplies should come to w. A. McVitie, chairman relief committee. We have $500 people to clothe and feed for many weeks and to furnish with household goods. Most Of these are homeless and the others will re- quire money to make their wrecked resi- dences habitable. From this the world may understand how much money we will need. This committee will from time to time report our needs with more particu- larity. We refer to dispatches of this date by Major R. G. Lowe, which the commi.sO5 fully indorses All communicants will please accept this answer in lieu of direct response, and be assured of the heartfelt gratitude of the entire population.

after display of herolsm that won for him tue hoonrs of a martyr. When the storm sa-,uck the city he hitched up a one-horse care and started out to rescue his neigh bors. Carload after cartload he carried in safety to Fire Company House No. D. On three occasions his cartload of human beings, some half dead, others erazed with fright, was carried for blocks by the raging currents but he landed all of them safely, even to his load, until he met his death As he attempted to pass into the building on his last trip the fire house succumbed to the wind and collapsed. Some of the wreckage struck Mutt and he was nor tally injured.
 Prof. Buckner, of the Bucunor Orphans Home of Dallas, arrived here yesterday morning and at once went to the city hall. He offered to throw the doors of his es- tablishment wide open for the orphans of Galveston and announced that he was ready to care for about 100 to 150 of the children.
 The official records of the United States Weather Bureau have been made up and forwarded to Washington. The reports give some very valuable additional infor- nation about the storm. Unfortunately the recording instruments were destroyed or crippled beyond operation about 5:10 D. m. on Saturday. The wind gable reported a two minute blow at the rate of 100 miles an hour and was then demolished by the hur- ricane which continued to increase in vio- lence.
 12O Miles Hour
 While the exact velocity of the wind was not recorded after the destruction of the instruments, the weather bureau reports estimate the maximum velocity at between 110 and 120 miles an hour It did not main- tain this terrific rate for any length of time-probably half a minute-but it was sufficient to wreck everything that met the full force of the storm.
 A journal of the local office of the wealth CT bureau contains the report of an appa. rent tilad wave of feet which swept in from the gulf some time between the hours of and D. m. and the time the wind veered to the southeast It should be remembered that there was tide of about , feet and a terrible swell in the gulf dur ing the storm, and that the tidal wave of 4 feet rode this wall of water and increased the force and speed of the sea that washed over the city.
 Mayor Jones said this afternoon that he estimated the loss of life in and around Galveston at 1000.
