haven't seen one in long time. In
my early youth L was the mill boy and
remember that one evening in the
early twilight as 1 was astride my
horse and grist and going slowly home
I neared the country graveyard of
Fairview church and saw, or thought
L saw, ghost ahead of me in the big
road. 1t had arms and legs, but had
no head. It was white and going
slowly from me. I checked my horse
and wondered L started on again
and got little closer. Still the form
was headless. Broad shoul ders and
arms akimbo. Nearer and nearer L
drew to it, but it made no sign.
My horse pricked up his ears as if
alarmed. The road forked not far
ahead. and 1 had resolved that if the
ghost took one road L would take the
other, when suddenly an old man
stopped to cough and took the sack
from his shoulders and laid it upon
the ground. 1 knew him instantly
old Uncle Tom Wilson, the hunch-
back-going home from the mill with
his grist across his shoulders, and his
head bent forward so that l could not
see it in the dusky twilight. Now If
both of us had reached the forks OF
the road and had separated l should
always have believed l saw a ghost.
That old mill road and church ana
grave yard made lasting impressions
upon me. and so did the mill and the
pond and the spring board and big
wheel and the soothing sounds OF the
water falling over the dam. We had
various adventures with the country
school boys on the way, for they did
ent like the town boys-and they
don't yet remember that it was on
April fool day that saw in the road
Just beyond the school house package
done up in brown paper, and as l had
met man in buggy little while be-
fore, [ supposed he had dropped it.
I stopped my horse and got down.
Picking up the package l united the
string and took off the wrapper and
found another wrapper and another
string and then another and another
and at last two big black bugs, whose
odor was familiar. That kind of bugs
that advance backward, and you can't
tell whether you meet 'em or overtake
'em. Just then score of boys jump
ed from the bushes and yelled and
screamed "April Fool!" I was so mad
1 could hardly mount my horse again,
but l never spoke a word. l took it
out in thinking and hating. West
Point hazing wasent any worse than
that April fool was to me. But boys
will be boys.-B11 ARP in Atlanta

A NEW TRANSPORT WAGON.
Can Garry Ratons for Forty Men on Out
post Duty or Serve With a Battery.

The old idea Of taking few measures
for the comfort of the troops in the
field, because they are usually COM
PEELED by the force of circumstances to
do without any comforts, was exploded
long ago and to-day every good officer
tries to bring his men to the field
of battle in as fresh a condition as
possible.
One of the most arduous duties
(other than actual fighting on the fir
ing line) is outpost duty, and any
means that will tighten this service in
the field will be welcomed by the army
Wagon transportation will not always
be available far to the front, and yet
the South African campaign has shown
that even at the outposts it can often
come into play. and would be OF ines
Unable value in sparing the men I'M
necessary labor.
A new military transport and shelter
wagon is the direct outcome OF the late
experience in the Transvaal. 1t was
designed by a volunteer artillery colo
mel of Sheffield, England. The wagon
is built of wood and is mounted on
springs and four wheels. The tires
are eight inches wide, to facilitate
travel over soft ground, and the rear
wheels are on a broader gauge than
those in front. 1t is arranged for horse
or traction engine draft.
The top of the wagon box is sur
rounded by stout wire netting, inside
of which is the platform. Under the
platform floor is water cistern OF 40
gallons capacity. One each side of the
wagon are hinged doors, closing re-
cesses in which a canvas shelter IS
kept rolled up. This canvas can be
run out in a very few minutes, and
when held up by the wagon at one
end and by posts planted out at the
side of the wagon at the other, will
form a rectangular tent for fifty men
Seats are also provided at the sides OF
the wagon in the form of hanging
steps, so that the men can be carried
on them when necessary. When not
in use these seats can be folded UP out
of the way. Rife or carbine racks are
also part of the equipment. The
wagon can carry four tons OF stores
and would thus provide a detachment
of forty men with rations for 100 days.
1t is designed either for the supply OF
a detachment on outpost duty or as
part of the equipment of field bat
terry, and with its tent shelter, will
prove far more valuable, under cir
cumstances where horse or traction
engine draft is available at all, than
the transport wagons now in use

The DRAGON Flag of Wales.

Quarterly azure, and gules, four
lions PEASANT gardant counter-charg-
ed" Welsh people desire the Welsh
arms added to the standard, and Lon
don heralds say that if Wales has any
arms, these are they. But are the
heralds correct? The dragon of Brit
ain figures in Gildas as well as in
Tennyson, and the dragon was the flag
of the Dux Britannica of Roman days.
The house of Cunedda appears to have
kept the dragon flag and the title of
King of Britain for a time. After
Cadwallon's death, however, they be-
come merely princes, and curiously
adopt the lion as their emblem, while
the dragon passes perhaps as part OF
the hegemony of the island to the
Saxon Kings of WesseX. Hastings
field made an end of the dragon as an
English flag. The dragon, however,
became the Welsh flag again when
Owen Glendower, by the grace Of
God Prince of Wales" rose in revolt
against Henry w., and it was also
under the Red Dragon that Henry VII.
(who claimed to be heir Of Arthur and
Cadwallon) marched to BosWorth.
That dragon flag was subsequently
hung up at Westminster. There is,
however, some historical justification
for adding the red dragon to the Eng
lish standard to represent Wales 1t
would, however, be interesting to know
the exact device on the flag of the
Britons borne before Charles l., when
as Prince of Wales he kept court at
Ludlow Castle-The Saturday Review.

Wealth of Western North America.

1t is beyond the limit or any merely
human descriptive powers to do JUS
tice to the timber wealth OF the Pa
cifc coast. 1t has been calculated
with reference to British Columbia
alone that at the present rate OF con-
sumption it would take 700 years 10
exhaust the more available supplies OF
timber; and as, under the husbandry
of nature. forests will renew them
selves in less time than 700 years, the
calculation is merely a way OF lndl-
eating that the timber resources OF the
Pacific coast are practically ineXhaust'
ible. 1t is not too much to say, then
that for all trade and commerce into
which wood and the products OF WOOD
enter, and for all manufactures IN
which wood and the products OF WOOD
are consumed, the Pacific coast pos
sesses resources intellectually greater
than any other portion OF the GLOBE
civilized or uncivilized.
AS regards the products of the mine,
the territory under consideration al
ready produces no inconsiderable pro-
portion of the worlds annual supply
of gold, silver, copper and lead. 1t is
besides infinitely rich in iron, coal ana
petroleum, of which its stores are
hardly yet comprehended, much less
utilized And what is known of all its
mineral resources is as nothing in
comparison with what is not known

j. S. Ens1ninger appeared for the

Balm on the bench, asked to have the
hearing of the case postponed as he
claimed he had a quarrel with Mr. Balm
a few days ago and he was afraid he

young men had been drinking and that
they were swimming in the river while
a large crowd of people, both men and
women, were on the banks watching
the progress made in dragging the
river for the body of little Preston

CANADA'S CENSUS.
Population Short of the Expected by
100000 Souls.

New York. June GA special to the
Times from Ottawa, Ont, says:
The official organs of the government
are preparing the country for the dis
appointment in store when the official
census returns are made known. In
stead of the confident predictions Of six
million and over, the returns so far
completed indicate less than 100000
According to the estimates based on
the statistics of the British Isles, Can
ada's total should be 5.425, 600 Estimates
based on the last census of Canada, ten
years back, yielded a percentage q tri-
fie higher, working out 5,430,000 souls
The evidence points to the shortage
between the expected results and the
fact as due to the steadily diminishing
percentage of births, which in Ontario
is now too we'll established to be dispu-
ted, and the continued emigration of
Canadians to the United States.

convention June II to June 16. made
public today the biennial report of the
national committee, r. G. Morse, New

follows:
The work in the Philippines had pro-
duced excellent results, winning the con-
fidence and esteem of civil officers, as
well as those of the army and navy.
In cooperation with the provincial
committee of Ontario and Quebec, three
Representatives were sent with detach-
ments of Canadian troops, serving in
South Africa.
At Cavite, P l., the authorities have
granted the use Of a building and this
has been fitted up by the committee and
a very helpful work is being prosecuted.
In the last two years the number of
railroad associations has increased from
137 to 1911 There are 648 students asso-
Citations. The work of the business de-
partment committee has greatly en-
larged and the number of donors has in
creased from 1000 to 5000. Organizations

MUSICAL UNIONS WAR.
Local Organizations in New York Are
in Trouble

New York, June 6.-War. has been de-
clared between the musical unions of
this city, which threatens a split in the
Musical Mutual Protective Union. The
trouble began a year ago, when the
trades union element in the Musical
Protective Union formed an orgauiza-
ton known as Local No Al of the
American Federation This action was
taken because leaders of Musical Pro-
tective Union were against affiliating
with the regular trades unions. The
members who formed Local Al applied
for recognition for their union in the
Central Federated Union and were adj
mitted.
In the meantime the Musical Mutual
Protective Union gave its N embers in
Local Al warning that there would be
trouble if they kept up their trade
union Affiliations The climax came
when the Mutual Protective Union put
up a notice at its headquarters that
all of its members in Local Al who did
not leave that body before next Tuesday
will be suspended.
There are 1,4OO members of Local IL
1000 of whom belong to the Musical
Mutual Protective. The local union will
fight the suspension order in the courts.
1t will besides make a fight for the con-
troll of the theatre orchestras, and apply
for cooperation to the Theatrical Pro
tective Union of Stage Hands and the
Actors Protective Association.
A member of Local Assembly Al said
that the fight would involve not only
New York but every large city in the
United States.
