north. south and Canada. The stron- gest representation of all is from the Merinos. Vermont. the home of the Merino, where the only distinctive American breed of sheep originated. is represented by many of her best breed CTS. This fact deserves more than a passing notice, as our domestic ani- malls of American origin are not nu- merous. We have borrowed almost ev- erything of this nature from other countries. The only other exception is possibly the American trotting horse.
 Angora Goats.
 In connection with the sheep show Is an exhibit of 240 Angora goats. These interesting animals fill one of the live stock pavilions. The growing of An gora goats is comparatively new business in this country, and very lit tie is known about it in the east. Their adaptability to rough, rocky pasture lands. where they graze and grow con- tentedly. has brought them prominent ly into consideration where such lands have proved useless or nearly so.
 Wool Exhibit.
 As another feature of the sheep show Superintendent Converse has arranged an exhibition of wool. This Is interna- tional in scope. having f1eeces from the different states, Canada and several South American countries. Argentina alone contributes more than POO sam pie feeces. Chile. Costa Rica, Bolivia. Salvador and other Central and South American countries are also represent ed. Such an international wool exhibit was never before attempted. It can- not fail to produce lasting benefits that will be shared by growers of sheep. manufacturers of woolen goods and through them the general public.
 shearing Machinery.
 Still another accessory to the sheep industry is elaborately illustrated. In one of the stock buildings a platform was erected about three feet above the floor. upon which Is installed the latest and best shearing and clipping machin- cry Some of the machines are oper- ated by electricity, while others are worked by hand. To show to Exposi- ton visitors their practical working, twenty sheep are brought from the East Buffalo stockyards every morn ing. One machine is set in motion each half hour during the day, and one of the men in charge removes a fleece with 1t. One of the operators claims a speed of one and one-half minutes to a fleece.
 Range Sheep.
 Tn pen outside of the regular sheep exhibit is carload of range sheep di- rect from the Canadian northwest These are sent as an advertisement of the rich pasture lands and an illus traitor of what may be produced there without additional feed and without artificial shelter.
 The Pan-American Horse Show.
 Dame Fashion may have withdrawn her smile of approval and the different styles of autos turn their backs in deri- sion, but the horse still holds favor with the great majority of mankind. The horse show at the Exposition which holds the boards for two weeks, from Oct. to Oct 19. will be no excep- tion- Five hundred horses are coming which are carefully selected to faith fully represent the best of every breed

SALVETE MILITES.
Welcome! and when we say it, we pack
our hearts in the saying,
Just as we did in the days war-crest-
ed, flaming and thunderous
When half the people were fighting and
half the people were praying,
And slowly from crimson quags the
granite Of peace grew under us.
All, those were lofty days when,
straight through our mincing
and canting,
The soul of the Nation flashed, and
gripped the hilt Of it's brand,
And drained it's aloes like wine, and
strobe forth, kindled and pant
ing,
Hewing in forest Of lies, clear space
for the Truth to stand.
All, those were mighty days mighty
for stress and for sorrow,
And mighty for regnant manhood
that turned them to glory and
gain;
What would have been the cast Of hu-
manity's crowned tomorrow,
Save for our yesterdays Of turbulent
passion and pain?
Save for the vivid swords which our
reverent heaTths arc keeping,
Save for the eloquent guns that held
high faith with the State,
Save for the heroes that sleep, and
those who pass to their sleeping,
Save for the dead that are shrined
and for the living who wait?
This is the time of our thrift, of Com
merce, and Art and of Science,
And Nature, our nursing-mother,
healeth the hurts Of war;
But the lust or lights Of our years are
the sacrifcial giants
Who clave our blackness asunder
and beaconed us where we are.
Thomas, poised Titan of Battle; and
Sheridan, Wraths Archangel;
uHN fa
not Chaos itself could shake;
And lance-like Sherman, who spurred
with the Century's sharp evan
gel
Into our century's browse, and cla-
rioned SlOth awake!
And Hooker, climbing the clouds
where his quarry perched above
him.
And Meade, Disciple Of Duty-our
hearts bend over his grave;
And plumed Mcpherson, the Splendid,
the true Heavens guard him and
love him;
And the scepterless kings of the
ranks-the vast, unlaureled
brave
Living or dead, Earth thrills with their
luminous fervor of spirit;
Living or dead their blood hath en-
tered into our veins;
Their voice-the nebulous stars Of the
pinnacled armament hear it;
Their work-in the neJnermost pits
its august influence reigns.
For what are our times and spaces ?
Leonidas greeted Warren;
Under our scarlet fields great Mara
thon's secret ran.
Nothing is past or future, nothing is
hidden or foreign.
The speech of Freedom is one, and
one is the soul of man,

arsenic purposely by Mrs. WItwer. The
expert chemist, into whose hands have
been placed the intestines OF several
supposed victims, including Mrs. Pugh,
has not yet made his report to the coro-
ner, and today's affidavit is based Who'll

Magnetic Observatories to Be Estab.

WASHINGTON, Oct 14.-The coast and
godetic survey has established mag.
netic observatory at Sitka. Alaska, and
is constructing another at Honolulu,
Hawaii, to cooperate with the British
and German governments in investi-
eating problems of the magnetic forces
and needle variations throughout the
world. This is III connection with the
two British and one German expedi-
tions for the south pole on plans long ago
formulated.
The operation of this and other
governments was asked by Germany
and the movement now we'll under way
SO far as Che preliminary work is con-
cerned, cOntemplaCes magnetic varia-
tiOns at fixed ObservatOries throughout
the world simultaneously with the
actual scientific researches in the south
polar regions. Both the American oh,
servatorles will be ready to assume their
part of the cooperation ar the time
designated in February next.
The work of the expeditions is likely
to occupy two or three years, and its
value is largely dependent on the obser-
vations similarly and simultaneously
made in different parts of the world. 1t
is expected TO determine the question
whether all magnetic disturbances and
phenomena are subject to a common
and worldwide cause, instead of being
of local character.
