before probably million of spectators.
packed in almost solid masses along the
four miles of the line of the parade. 1t
marked the climax of the Thirty-fourth
annual encampment. and was, accord
ing to Commander-in-C Chief Shaw, the
greatest parade since the day In Wash
ington when the hundreds of thousands
of veterans. the most powerful army
on earth. marched in review to their
final disbandment.
Probably 10000 members OF the army
of veterans took part in to-day's par
ade. For exactly four hours and twen-
ty minutes, most of the time with ranks
almost perfectly aligned, but occasion

years, they filed past the reviewing
stand on Michigan avenue, saluting, as
they marched by. General Nelson A..

minister, the Duke of ARGOS.
The one especially sad incident occur

parade, Charles Beckwith of Algonza,
Michigan, dropping dead as the line
was filing past the corner OF Michigan
avenue and Madison street. The par
ade was halted for moment, the body
of the veteran who had responded to
his last call, was tenderly removed and
his comrades passed on.
Weather conditions were almost ideal
for the parade. The rays Of the sun

Dr. NJ j Rosenau, director of the

how tough an animal the plague bacil-
lus is, says the New York Press. He
finds him to be one OF the toughest of
the bacillus family. He says: "It is
the experience Of all observers that
the bacillus cannot live long outside
the body when dried at a temperature
OF 80 degrees csntigrade or over, but at
a temperature lower than this and un-
der 20 degrees centigrade it has been

Gates that the organisms, which dried,
will die quickly II the temperature
reaches 2T degrees centigrade. but that
at 20 degrees it may live much longer"
Some bacilli, 1t is thought, are harder
than others, just as some persons are.
The doctor put some bacilli on little
squares OF crash and set some Of the
pieces OF cloth to dry in a dark corner
of the laboratory where the tempera-
ture ranged from 20 to q degrees CEN
tigrade. Other inoculated pieces OF
crash he placed In a cool room with a
temperature of about is degrees cent?
grade. Still other pieces were placed
in Photographic dark room where
the temperature was about 90 degrees
centigrade. The bacilli from the dif
ferent pieces OF crash were tried every
once in a while to see how lively they
were. After 13 days the bacilli on the
pieces of crash in the dry dark corner
of the laboratory. where the tempera-
ture was high, ceased to grow, and
were pronounced dead. But a bacillus
from the cool chamber was strong
enough, after being there 4s days, to
kill mouse inoculated with it. The
mouse died in three days. A bacillus
which stayed in the dark room for As
days killed mouse in two days. The
same experiments were tried with pine
wood infected with plague bacilli, and
1t was found that they did not flourish
as well as when placed on crash. The
bacilli in the laboratory died after four
days. those in the cool chamber after
eight days and those in the dark room
after II days

A Sparrow. Memory.

Last year red-headed sparrow built
her nest in grape vine behind a
house on Riverside street, and after
a time used to come to the window
every day and rap on the pane OF glass
for food. This rapping began by the
sparrow trying to pick up crumb
that had fallen inside the window, and
ever thereafter one crumb was left in
side the pane so that the morning call
of the saucy little creature would be
heralded by a rapping on the glass.
When fall, with its cold winds, camo
all the birds went away, and with
them the two sparrows and their flock
OF young. The other morning, willis
the woman Of the house was busy with
her cares, there came a tiny tap-tap
at the window. and there was the lit
tie red head Of the sparrow. Crumbs
were thrown out, and little later the
woman noticed that the bird had be-
gun to build her nest in the old place.

the astonished Chinese threw down
their arms and fed. Japan is quietly
sending more troops to China. Picked

DO DOGS THINK?
some Thinking Dogs Observed by Herr
steIncr-Brunner.


Do dogs think? Yes, replied Herr
Steiner Brunner, the landlord of the
Hotel du Glacier at Meiden. in the
Turtmannthal. Herr Drummer left his
mountain hotel during the last winter
under the guardianship of watchman,
whose only companions We're couple
of dogs-a French ''griffon' and little
"spitz." A month ago the watchman
was cutting wood in the neighborhood
Of the hotel, when he was suddenly
overwhelmed by an avalanche. The
two dogs were with their master, and
must have seen him thus buried by the
fallen mass Of snow. Unable to get at
him for his release, his two canine
friends, either with or without holding
counsel together, rushed down the
mountain (Which stands at the height
of 500 meters above the sea level and
made their way to Herr Bruners house
in the valley. There. by snorting,
barking and other signs of excitement,
they made the landlord understand
that something extraordinary had oc-
CURED at the summit. The host, with
three men and two dogs. ascended to
the Hotel du Glacier, a journey which
occupied them nine hours. When they
arrived at the spot where the accident
had happened, ''it was as clearly in
dicated by the conduct Of the two dogs
as II they had said in words, This is
the place" The watchman was soon
excavated from his snowy grave, and
quickly recovered himself. AS he could
give the exact time at which the ava
lanche had fallen, it was calculated
that the two dogs had made their
downward journey in little more than
an hour. and during heavy snowfall.

Hawaii n Part of the Nation.

Tracewell of the treasury holds that
the Hawaiian islands, under the act of

OF the United States. and consequently

not entitled to the same pay and allow

Washington, Aug. 29.-After Cabi-
net meeting to-day 1t was announced
that the government was in n waiting
attitude regarding the Chinese situa-
tion. The lack OF late advices from Pc

makes it necessary for this government
to await developments. The admins

portance that in the negotiations for
settlement of the Chinese diff
Guilty all the powers should act

slow to declare themselves. Several re-
plies have been received to the instIric-
tions sent to our ambassadors and min
listers last week, asking them to sound

credited on two propositions-first, the
willingness of these governments TO
accept the sufficiency of Ii Hung
Cbang's credentials to treat with the
powers for a settlement, and. second, to

policy of each power is to be. Regard
