INDICTED NAN on PITY JURY.
Unusual Proceeding b! Court Officers OF
Monroe County, Indiana.

INDIANAPOLIS, June %. The State officers
were very indignant to-day when they
learned that F. H. Cox. who is under indict-
ment in Monroe county, Is member of a
petty jury which is trying damage suit
in the Circuit Court OF that county. Around
the Governors Office the feeling is par
ticularly bitter.
The Governor has been more than dis
pleased to think hat nothing has been done
toward Furnishing the Bloomington white
cappers, while the people there say the
Governor is responsible for having injured
the reputation OF the town by calling atten-
ton to the recent outbreak, which, they
say. has been greatly exaggerated.
1t was pointed nut at the State HOUSE
that he naming of Cox as a petit juror was
in line with the proceedings Of the court
officers since the outbreak at Bloomington.
They have said that the rioters were only
n few disreputable scoundrals who could
not be cont rolled.

MARKET FOR FRUIT PEDLERS.
DIR. WOODBI RY PLANS TOGATHER
IN MORE PLSHCARTS.
4 Strip Ten Blocks Lons East Of the
Fish Market Beside the Williams
burg Bridge Where 2.OOO Carts
Could Stand-yegetabie Carts. TOO.

The success of Commissioner Woodbury's
pedlers' fish market in the waste spac"
south of the approach to the Williamsburg
Bridge, extending from Clinton street
to Ridge street, leads him to expect SINH
lar success with the peders' fruit market
which with the cooperation Of the
Department of Bridges he hopes to
establish early in July on one or more
blocks to the east. where the long mar
row space between the southerly side of
the bridge and the building line is now
occupied by tall trestle work on which
runs a construction road. This temporary
structure will soon Ike removed and will
leave vacant n strip about fifty feet wide
running ten blocks between Ridge street,
where the fish market ends, and the river.
As soon as the entire space is cleared Dr..
Woodbury. hopes to add 10 the fruit market
one for vegetables and one for the sale
of bread from carts, and so clear the carts
out of the streets.
On the basis of the room afforded by
the two blocks now devoted to the fish
market-there are spaces for 800 stands
between Clinton and Ridge streets-the ten
blocks to be added will give room for fully
1000 stands for tho sale Of fruit, veg tables
and bread, which would take nearly half
the p,lshcarts out of the East Sides most
congested district.
Under the present administration of the
fish market. at o'clock each week day
afternoon the pedlers must remove their
carts promptly. A squad Of men from
the Street Cleaning Departm with hose
and brooms washes the asphalted space
until ii is perfectly clear of all traces and

DIscREDITED HEROES.

Republics are ungratefuI, but not
more so than constitutional mon
arches. Lord Roberts, commander-in-
chief Of the British forces, is to retire
under circumstances that practically
compel his withdrawal from office. He
Is a broken idol. He is going the way
of Wolseiey and the existing govern
ment is as cold to this dethroned hero
as the present administration in this
country was to Gen. Miles on the occa-
sion of his retirement. 1t is not likely
that Roberts will be f1outed by the
civilians In power = they do those
things better on the other side-but
that he has been given the cold Shout
der is very certain.
And yet Roberts deserves very well
of his country Had he. nothing to
his credit but his great Indian cam
paign, which won him his peerage, he
would have done enough to demand
honors from his country for all his
days. He is being sacrificed to the bu-
reaucracy-even as Miles was
way. His services In Egypt should
have entitled him to lasting laureIs,
but he was shorn at the instigation Of
department men who had never been
out of England, and who made him the
responsible scapegoat for their inca
pacfty.
This throwing down of idols, the
ruthless immolation of real soldiers,
like Miles, Roberts and Woiseley,
sharply instances the fickleness Of
peoples. We never raised Miles to the
heights to which adulation elevated
Roberts and Wolseley, but we did rec
ognize his merit so thoroughly that he
survived the attacks of the bu-
reaucrats. They made the English
generals lords and gave them great
nominal commands. Now they are
impotent old men, def1owered of their
blooming honors and ready for postum
nous memorials.
1t is as we'll for the organizations
these men stood for that they should
give way to the tendency to put armies
under staff control. But we might
easily make it more pleasant for them
in their latter days. 1t really is not
crime in man to have deserved well
of his country but to have lacked the
capacity to temper his achievements
with polite concessions to the men
who can unmake hero as readily as
a premier or president can make
general.

ocrat Grover Cleveland, now forever
removed from the active turmoil and
the ambitions of political life, should
represent, as did Samuel J. Tilden in
the later years of his life, the great
eXemplar and ideal of American De-
mocracy. He is a patriot and a states
man, as well as a Democrat. The
party which he will never more lead
to victory should cherish with in

OLD MAN EITZ.

Col. Fitzsimmons, the old man of the
fighting game, demonstrated on the
body of one Gardner in roped arena at
San Francisco Wednesday night that
this is also the day of the elderly per-
son if he will but keep himself fit.
There has been much said and print
ed of late to prove that this is alto
gether the day of the young man and
the proponents of the theory have pro-
ceeded to put an age limit on the
usefulness of man. With a beautiful
disregard of the obvious fact that the
big men of the world are on the shady
side of fifty many cases have been
cited to show that the man who had
passed forty without making his
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-11-29

pile or his mark was a hopeless case.
The examples cited are freaks. A man
is as old as he feels and he feels just as
old as he has made himself.
This is the day of the young man IN
that youth is no longer handicap. II
Fox had lived today he would not have
been impeIled to complain with bitter
ness that he was guilty of the heinous
crime of being young man. Inc
line of endeayor is not suppressed be-
cause he has all his hair and teeth.
Whiskers are no longer the badge Of
wisdom and the abnormal paunch does
not prove the possession Of brains.
But let the young man hesitate be-
fore trying his strength against that
oldster who has preserved his pristine
vigor and who is willing to amend his
experience by experiment. The big
men of contemporary life hold the
purse strings still. Let not the youth
who is making much noise overlook
the fact that he is being used very
largely to fill the purse.
Charles M. Sehwab is held up as the
best example of the young man in the
big affairs of the stock manipulating
world. But he should not be regarded
as an infant. Nor should his fame be
held to altogether hide J. Pierpont Nor
san or John D. Rockefeller.
Old Man F'itz is fine example Of the
possibilities of the oldster. He has kept
himself fit He is of uncertain age
not less than forty-three and not more
than sixty. But he is going about hold
ing his own with the ambitious ones in
fisticuffs, taking parts of purses, in
different to the stings of his sarcastic
fellows, rejuvenating himself at times
by teaching physical culture.
Let the elderly ones Of fortytwo or
three who have felt like asking some
of their juniors to knock them in the
head with an AK take heart Of grace
and consider the case of Col. Robert
FitEsimmons. the Ancient.
