A Unique Progressive.

The results of the London county council
elections have given the progressives the
victory l predicted last week, but Mr.. Ber-
nard Shaw was defeated. There is a
p,quancy in Mr.. Shaw's defeat which is
quite in keeping with his personality. He,
though standing progressive, has gone
out OF his way 10 commend the education
act. and to thank heaven that he is not as
others are, blind partisan, who believes
that nothing good can come from tory
government. And the result of this heroic
pose has been that he, though supported by
all the arts and crafts, is defeated and is
the only eminent man ON the progressive
side to go under STILL like Fabius, he is
great In adversely, and yesterday morn
ing saw him setting off to lecture Just as
il nothing unusual had occurred.
The abodes of nations teachers are
always of interest to the many. Therefore
the dwelling of Mr.. Bernard Shaw may
well be the object of legitimate curiosity
especially as his place of residence was
once familiar resort of a large number Of
people well known in the literary and ar
tistlc world. What was once the Crichton

A WASHINGTON Medal.


John Dillon, banker at Geary,
owns a medal alleged to be one of the
eight given by George Washington to
eight Arapahoe Indian chiefs in 1TS9.
The medal is nearly two and one-half
inches in diameter and made of unal-
loyed silver. 1t was given to Mr.. Dill
Ion by an Arapahoe chief, Jock Bull
Bear. who declared that it was given
originally to his grandfather, White
Owl to his son of the same name, who
was the uncle of Jock Bull Bear, and
from whom Bull Bear received it.
On one side is the head of Wash
ington, encircled by the words,
George Washington, the Father of
Our Country Below is the date
"1TS0." On the other side are two
olive branches inclosing two clasped
hands with the date, "1TS9," and two
crossed pipes beneath. In the outer
margin at the top is the word Friend
Ship with six stars on each side
separating 1t from the words. The
Pipe of Peace" in the outer margin at
the bottom of the medal. The thlr-
teenth star is Immediately beneath the
word Friendship"
The story of the medal as told to
Mr. Dillon is that the Arapahae tribe
was in camp at Colorado Springs in
1888 when eight chiefs left on horse
back for Washington. They made the
trip successfully and returned in nine
months from the day of departure.
Mr.. Dillon does not know the value Of
the medal, but has refused all offers
for its purchase.-Kansas City Jour
nal.
