he will be assigned to command
of division with headquarters
at st. Louis. Secretary Taft ID
not altogether in favor of the policy
Of putting men of Weston's age into
the line, and, with the kindliest feel
ings for the veteran, he contested with
the president over such an assignment
When the promotion was decided upon
the secretary said to Weston:
General, the president has been try.
ing to make you major general and
have been trying to prevent it. rhe

the way, but am pretty lively colt. "
Anyone to look at the active, rosy
checked Kentuckian. and who Ia &C
Quainted with his record for hard
work, can easily understand how the
president persuaded Secretary Taft to
waive the policy Of not appointing old
men to the line In Weston's case.
Gen. Weston Is known as the
Charles O'Malley" Of the army, ae he
fills the bill of Levers Irish soldier
hero in most particulars. He is jally,
light-hearted. energetic, brave officer,
and has years of usefulness before him.
Only two years ago the army doctors
concluded that he was very sick
man, and they thought they had dis
covered something wrong with his
heart. They put him In the soldiers
home hospital and told him he iaust
not take any violent exercise. Weston
did not believe that there was any
thing the matter with his. heart. and
one day, when his attendants were at
dinner, he jumped ND, ran across q
meadow and back at full speed and
found TO his satisfaction that there
was not the slightest futter OF his
heart. He went to his room, packed

tor assistance. Juggling from the
number of applications that he he's re-
ceived since his appointment as secre-
tary of the navy made him known in
ternationally, Mr.. Bonaparte mas come
to the conclusion that all Of the great
Napoleon's marshals must have died
poor. Scarcely q day passes that he
does not receive a letter from some
one in France stating that the writer
has descended from one Of Napoieon's
generals, and as the emperors grand
nephew is now a man of wealth and
position the writer does not dou5i that
he will be only too glad to render a
little assistance for the sake Of the
grand old days at Marengo and Aus
terlitz.
The secretary cannot undertake to
respond to all these applications. but
he has let 1t be known that his nod
est fortune would soon disappear IL he
gave even a trifle to each Of the anpli-
cants. The majority of appeals f'r aid
come from the descendants of Marshal
Ney. The Ney family seems to have
been very prolific, as members OF 1t
are popping up all over the republic OF
France. In their letters to the secre-
tary they call attention to the great
value of Marshal Ney's services to Ma
poleon and suggest that the secretary.
In memory of his distinguished grand
uncle, might feel like discharging part
of the latter's debt to Ney by sub
stantial financial remittances to the
present members Of the Ney family.
One Of these letters is from a Ney
who has served in. the French army.
He has sent the secretary colored
portrait of himself, showing that he is
dressed in the brilliant French uni
form, with baggy trousers Of bright
red hue.

life. AS president of the general ma
val board he is on duty every day at
the department, and takes the keenest
interest In everything pertaining to
the Improvement OF the navy. The ad-
miral is 6S years OF age and could have
retired four years ago II he had want
ed to, but he says there Is lot OF
work that he can do and he proposes
to devote his energies to the good OF
the navy.
Just now Admiral Dewey has been
brought into the limelight by his per-
sistent advocacy Of big ships for the
navy. He has studied the recent war
between Russia and Japan with view
to learning lessons that can be applied
to the United States navy. and he
maintains that the first lesson OF this
conflict Is the dominance Of the big
battleship in a naval encounter. He
declares that the United States must
keep abreast of all the great navies OF
the world, and as Great Britain mas
now laid down an 1S,000-ton battiesnip
1t behooves this country to initiate her
example and build a vessel of equal
size.
Admiral Dewey believes that the de-
fensive and offensive alliance between
Great Britain and Japan makes 1t nee
essary for the United States to main
tain a navy Of the first grade. This
alliance gives Great Britain and japan
virtual control of the seacoast from
the Mediterranean to the northeast
ernmost point Of the Asiatic cast.
The United States must have a Eavv
that will command respect in order to
maintain the Philippines and protect
her commercial interests in the orr
ent. The admiral's views will be spread
before congress at the coming session
when the question Of big batt'eship
is discussed.

gallant officers in the revolutionary
war. The continental congress, l2Y
years ago. passed resolution for the
erection of q monument to this o ticei,
but it is only now that this purpose Is
to be carried out, provision having
been made by the last congress for the
erection of statue of Gen. Mercer a.
Fredericksburg, Va. A prominent
sculptor has been given the contract
for the memorial, and 1t will be fin-
ished within year and appropriate
dedicatory services will be held.
Gen. Mercer was a native Of Scot
land, and in the early days before the
revolution, in fact, before the French
and Indian war, he came to America
and settled at Fredericksburg, where
he became known as one Of the ablest
lawyers in that part Of the country.
He formed a friendship with George

On the breaking out of the revolu-
ton, he was again associated Nth
Washington, and was conspicuous for
his gallantry in many an engagement
particularly in the battles Of Trenton
and Princeton. In the latter engage
ment he received his death wound.
The continental congress, in its en-
thusiasm over Gen. MERGERS galiantry.
upon receiving news of his death In

not set aside to erect one. That over
sight Of more than a century ago has
been remedied, and now the gallant
Scotchman who gave his life for the
United States will be honored fol all
time by a memorial fitting in senti-
ment and workmanship.

The hoodoo which seems to have set
tied around the Athletics took a more
murky hue Memorial day, when that
team, despite good pitching by Cooley and
Grady and good catching by Brooks, drop
ped two more games, the one in the
morning to 4 to Company J. and the
other in the afternoon to 3 to Durham
Brothers Crescents.
In the first contest the playing through
seven innings was sharp and pretty, but
in the eighth a combination of errors
tlub- dubs. hits and n decision that was
questionable gave Company l eight scores
and victory Brooks threw out at second
fast runners like Clune and Stevens. The
most spectacular play OF the game was
running catch by Ice V. Johnson also
distinguished himself by good catches
The work of Brasor and Clune at second
base was excellent.
The afternoon game was devoid of field
ing features with exception OF a catch
by March. but long hits by Frost. Bra
sor, Brooks and II. Allen aroused momen-
tary enthusiasm. Grady was not hit
hard. but the error column, with II dere-
lotions recorded, tells the story of his
support March was not present when
the game began and Duneavy went to
second base in the first inning and Aher,
a substitute, into left field The first two
men up flied out to Aher, who then had
the opportunity to retire as March was
ready after the two men were out.

scene long before our early progenitors
and shaped the bays and shore line; piled
up the mountains and artistically laid out
the lake and valley lands. The Crystal
Hills long, long years ago were the sacred
haunt of the red mems Manitou, the lakes
and rivers, the aborigines' fishing grounds,
and the magnificent sea coast was their
haven of rest. Then the pale face"
came, and afterwards was the advent of
the railroad.
Busy marts, high mountains, lake and

AUDUBON SOCIETY OF VERMONT.
Work viii Be Under Direction Of Trus-
tees of Fairbanks Museum in ST. Johns
bury

The secretary announces a change in
the organization of the state Audubon
work. which is a cause of much gratifica-
ton to the society. The trustees of the
Fairbanks museum of natural history in
st. Johnsbury have assumed the RESPONSE
bility of this important work.
The lines they are following in the edu-
cational field and their fine collections ar
ranged with simplicity to meet the needs
of those who are seeking to establish a
foundation in the various branches of
natural science make the museum the
most desirable headquarters i'm the state
for the Audubon society. The presence of
a courteous and helpful staff make the
collections readily accessible to the public
a all times.
In the four years of active work the
society has accomplished much. We have
had the hearty cooperation of the state
superintendent of education. Walter +.
Ranger. who is alive to every aid for the
upbuilding of character in the children and
youth of the state. BY personal work, our
circulating Libraries and distribution of
literature we have reached schools in all
parts of the state. \. j. Eaton of South
Royalton has presented the economic side
of bird protection at the meeting of the
aGriculturalists, and to no one is an in
tellgent comprehension of our dependence
on bird life so important as to the farmer.
has prepared for the department of edu-
cation Circular XVIII, Forty Common
Birds of Vermont" which has met with
very favorable comment from experienced
workers i'm this field. There is an aroused
public sentiment to sustain our laws. and
an enlarged interest in out door study
pervading all communities.
The demands of the work are passing
beyond the capability of the few who have
leisure and strength to devote to its in
tcrests. The director of the museum, Miss
Della /. Griffin. is the new state secretary.
She is especially qualified to further all
educational work both by careful training
and experience.
There is no intention on the part of
the Brattleboro members to relax their
efforts. AS the Brattleboro branch they
will look after the interests of the society
in surrounding towns. as well as in our
own, in behalf of the state work Mrs.
Davenport as a director in the national
association is necessarily in touch with
the work at large, and especially anxious
to bring all who are interested in any
phase of the work into concerted action.
We most earnestly desire that all persons
who have any interest in bird protection,
ana in the healthful out door study and
its resultant broadening of life shall Join
us. Names may be sent to either Mrs.
Della l. Griffin of ST. Johnsbury At the
final meeting of the executive boz rd held
in Brattleboro DIR. Edward I. Fairbanks
was chosen president. Miss Della l. Griffin
secretary, Miss Isabel NJ. Paddock treas
urer, all of st. Johnsbury. The full board
OF officers will be announced when APP
pointed.
