Australia. Prime Minister.

Sir William Lyme, Lord Hopetoun's
first selection for the premiership of
Australia, was not born to fortune. He
began life as 'squatter" in Queens
land. He left Tasmania, his native
colony, in his teens, but went back to
1t to become clerk of municipal coun-
ell. He tired OF official life at 81, and
left Tasmania and again "squatted"
on the Murray river in New South
Wales, which has been his home ever
since. He stood for parliament and
won, and was soon a minister. A lit
tie more than year ago he became
prime minister.

A TARDY RECOGNITION.

AT the last moment the veterans
have succeeded in receiving recognN
ton in Washington. They will not
participate in the big inaugural day
parade, but they will be permitted
to escort the president from the
White House to the capitol and to
pass in review in the court OF honor
after the parade is over
This may indicate that the age
of sentiment in Washington is not
altogether a thing OF the past, and
that a proper amount of Poklng and
iabbing will reveal that under the
thick business cuticle of the present
day statesmen there is still a linger
ing trace of tenderness for the hes
roes of the nation. Or it may be
that the veterens have succeeded IN
arousing ancient memories OF by
gone campaigns and bringing a
realization of the fact that the vet
Grams continue to have few votes
at their disposal But whatever the
cause, the change of heart in the
managers of the inaugural festlvl>
ties is hopeful sign. 1t shows that
the administration is not yet so
thoroughly absorbed in squarlng
accounts with the great captains OF
industry and in empire>build'ng
but it can be brought to give a few
moments consideration to other
things if the other things jolt it
sufficiently hard. Hence, it may
come to pass IN the dim and misty
future that the constitution will get
sufficient force into its nudges to
secure for itself passing recogni>

teeth Saturday afternoon. The day

this could have been avoided. Ev>

that it was in George Gates corral
This may have been answered in
fun, but that was the answer that
was given. Ii that Sprinkler had
been run steadily through the af>

great deal of the dust from flying.
When the sprinkler does come out,
the water is just permitted to make

an hour it is as dry as punk. The
