One correspondent from the scene of
war in the Far East reports that the
favorite air for the bands with the ia
panese army is our own marching
Through Georgia" and it is recalled
that when the japanese army marched
into Port Arthur during their war with
China. 4 decade ago. their columns en-
tered to the music of this inspiring
march. This incident reminds a writer
In the Boston Transcript that March
ing Through Georgia" is also one of the
most popular airs of the English arE'y.
and that he has heard it roared by hum
dreds of Tommy Atkins in far off Bur
nah. most of whom had never heard of
General Sherman, and had no idea
where Atlanta was located, or what
"sea" was meant, but the tune was easy
and cheering and the words mattere,l
hut little. Marching Through Georgia"
has outlived most. of the Civil War
tunes. for the very good reason that 1t
is not dependent upon the words. 10
has The tone and temper of the bat-
racks. the march and the battle. ard i.
Is not strange that the best soldiers of
other continents siLS it as heartily and
march to il as readily as did our bows
in blue in the Civil War.

BYRON BOYD. Secretary.
Bangor. April 2Sth, 1904.

Not only did the present year start
in to beat the records in the matter of
fire losses, but it is keeping up the pace
in the most unhappy fashion. Aprils
loss was nearly double the usual figure
for that month in this country ami
Canada, and for this excess the Toronto
fire with loss of over $12,G00.000 is
mainly responsible. the total loss
during the month is placed at $23,623,-
900 as against something over $130OC,-
past two years. For TIE whole fell
covcre d, the losses thus far in 1904 hay"
reached the Formidable aggregate of
s146, ,666,350, compared with $52. 900
for the same period year ago. and
there are eight months still to come.
Without the contributions of Baltimor ;.
Rochester and Toronto The logs would
amount to about SCI 100000, or over
$4,000, 900 more than q year ago, and
about the same as i'm 1902 which WAS by
10 means regarded by tie underwriters
as year favorable to their interests.
The only hope for the remaining eight
months is that the losses will be lighter
than usual, though there is nothing
particular to justify such hope.

Brooklyn woman has just won a
victory in the courts for which all per-
sons who travel should be grateful.
She sued street railroa company be-
cause the conductor did not return %
her the proper change. and when she
asked him to DO so he denounced her
and abused her before q car full of poo
pie. The lower court decided that Il
railroad company vas Lot responsible
for the rudencsss Of its employees. and
that the woman could recover only the
amount OF change due her with
out any damages being added.
But being woman of per-
sistenCy she carried the case to the
court Of appeals and that body has de-
clared that railroad company is re
sponsible not only for the safe trans
portation of its passengers but for the
conduct of its employees towards those
passengers and directed the lower
court to determine the damages ac-
Cordingly. OF course. this decision
only applies as far as the state of New
York is concerned. but it IS a precedent
which will carry weight elsewhere, and
transI ortation companies which have
ungentlcmarly employees will not b,
slow to heed the warning.

it will first be given tour through 'he

during it's period of visitation at Sari-

Henry NJ. Stanley, now lying dead IN
his London home, was one OF the
worlds best known men, although for
the past few years be has been living in
retirement. The story of his life reads
like a romance, and few men have ever
had more varied experiences and more
exciting adventures. Although a Mt
tive of Great Britain it was iii this
country that he got his start in lie.
He fought on both sides in our Civil
War, and it was as the representative
of an American newspaper that he en-
tered upon his career as an explorer
which gave hir1 fame and fortune. He
did much for humanity and for the
cause of science, and leaves name
that will rot soUr perish from the earth.
His own name by the way, was John
Rowland, and he was given the name Of
Henry Morton Stanley by a kind
hearted New Orleans merchant who
gave him employment ard adopted him
when he was lad of IA years.

Residents who have rubbish to be
burned should not entrust the matter
wholly to the children Of the neighbor-
hood. They are apt to handle fires
carclessly, and in time of high wind
much damage is liable to result from
fires thus set in the garden patch or on
vacant lots. 1t may not be generally
understood that persons are liable for
damage caused by the careless burning
of brush or other substances in the
above manner, but it is nevertheless
true, which fact should cause everyone
to exercise more care in the matter
than is usually bestowed upon bonfires
at this season.
