THE STORY OF WILLIAM TELL
BILL ARP ON THE SWISS.

The IcOnOclasts Are Tearing
Down the Idols Of the Pco-
pie.
Atlanta constitutional
How the old peoI'e cling to tho
stories and traditions that charmed
their childhood. Good old Mother
Akin came to see me and to comfort
me in my sickness. She has had her
share of trouble, bui is always bright
and cheerful and brings sunshine with
her. Somehow the story of William
Tell came up, and when | remarked
that it was now generally set down
among the critics rs II myth or q pretty
fable she said "she would not read any
such heartless scandals nor did she be-
lieve them. The world is full of these
iconoclasts who would break up every
idol that we have worshiped. The
story of William Tell is one that is fit
to be believed and handed down from
generation to generation. Votarc
started that fable theory because he
did not like the Swiss. Many books
have been written on both sides, but
the old family traditions that have
come down to us for 600 years arc still
as much the faith Of The Swiss people
as is their religion. William Tell is as
much today their national hero and
the founder of their republic as Wash
ington is Of ours and the little chapel
on the lake where he was drowned is
still preserved to commemorate him."
| Well, whether it is fact or fable
it IS one of the prcttiest stories ever
told and ought to be repeated to the
children of every household. 1t was
III the fourteenth century when Austria
had over-ridden and conquered SwltZcr-
land and had stationed her tyrant
bailiffs in every canton to subdue and
humble the people, that one Gcssler
placed the ducal cap upon a pole III The
public place and ordered every one
who passed to uncover his head and
bow to it. Tell refused and was seized
and condemned to death, but as he
was known to be the best bowman in
Switzerland he was offered the alterna
tive of shooting an apple from his sons
head. The boy was his idol and he
begged for some other alternative, but
Gessler refused. Sixty yards was
measured off, the boy stationed and
the apple placed.
Gesser and his cohorts looked on
while Tell bowed his knees and then
let fly the arrow and pierced the apple
in its center. The boy ram TO his father
and leaped into his arms, and another
arrow that had been concealed fell upor
the ground. What was that arrow
for ?" said Gessler. "To shoot you
you brute, had / slain my son." Fol

were in the air, again perforated al

chairman again appealed for order:
" Won't you behavc?" answered by
yells for I'ilman and Talbert. Col.
Tillman stood his ground and friends
who called on "Jim" to 90 on were
told he could handle an EdurIicId
audience.
Cries for Tillman were more numcr-
GUS than ever, something closely re-
sembling what is said to have broke
loose IN Georgia, reigncd here absolute

voices yelled, Col. mllman's voice not

absolutely beyond control and Col.
'llllman was speaking amid noise most
turbulent.
Col. Talbert appealed to his friends
to be quiet. Col. Tillman rctorted

Ell friend was again wasting his voice
and his time, and his request was not
asked for nor was it needed. Many
crowded around Col. Tillman ami |
chccrcd him. Col. Tillman said if |
Ialbert would discuss issues on the
square he was ready. The chairman
tld everything in his power and is in
no wise to be censurcd for such be-
havior, as the crowd was beyond The |
control OF any one man.
When Col. Tlllman was carried out
most of the audience dispersed. DR..

AFTER MINES
Portland Mining Men Look
 ing Over Alaska.

Eugene T. Merritt, a mining man of Portland, Oregen, Is in Skaewav. He Is in Alaska for ;he purpose of looking over the mining possibilities of the country. Mr. Merritt Is especially interested in cop per and Is thinking of prospecting the great copper fields in the country at the headwaters of the White, Copper and Panama rivers before he returns to the states.
 Al the Golden North hotel last night, Rr Merritt said that he did not kuow which way he would go first While retlcent as to his movements, he admitted freely that his business IS mining and that he was in Alaska for the purpose of look ing into mining properties.
 Mr. Merritt was at ne time interested interested ln Valdez properties. He was associated with Willard the mining promoter of thit place. They had an option on some of the best properties in the Chltna. Mr. Merritt thinks the Cop per liver country hiS been over rated.
 "Valdez and the Copper river country may be alright" he said, ''but they have not yet developed properties thlt warrant the el.lms put forth for thlt country"
 If Mr. Merritt goes into the White river copper country he will probably examine the routes to lt as well as the property.
 While Mr. Merritt has been more or less interested In Alaska for some time, this Is hIs first trip tp the North. He has experts with him.
