conservators Of Peace.

The G.. A. R.. as an organization,
has been one of the greatest conserv-
ators of peace because its members
realize more fully than any one else
could the cost Of war both in blood
and treasure. The wounds and dis
ease contracted by them in the civil
war are ever present reminders of its
cost. They would have been ready
to have sacrificed much before engag-
ing in such another struggle.
They have been the leaders of all
movements tending TO higher patriot
ism and loyal serRcerto their country,
They have fostered and encouraged
every effort looking to more loyal cit
izenship. They have taught the world
lesson in fraternity extending not
only to their own members, but
to the men of the south who
fought against them, and they have
done and are doing more to reunite
the two sections of our country as
patriotic American citizens than any
other agency or society.

About the broken STATS. as one by one

Flowers for the graves OF those whose

She heard the incessant hum
That filed the warm with blossom scent

The happy laugh, the cheer. Oh. glorious

TRAINER FOUGHT EoR LIE.
Wrestling Bout With Lion Turns to
Grim Realty.

Grim Realty.
An athlete named Rey. connected
with the Bostock animal show. had a
narrow escape from death one day
this week, says a Paris special to the
Kansas City Journal. He was en-
gagged in putting the wrestling lion,
Brutus, through his daily practice,
when the brute Unexpectedly fastened
it's teeth in his Jacket. The trainer
stopped wrestling and tried to olsen
gage himself by withdrawing from the
jacket and leaving it in the lions pos.
session.
But he was unable to do this. and
Brutus, withouet becoming actually
savage, warmed TO the encounter and
began to tear the trainer about the
shoulders and sides. Although bleed
ing freely from fifty wounds, Rey, who
is a powerful, athletic young fellow,
kept his head, and realizing that he
was at the mercy Of the brute II he
fell. kept him off as best he could.
By this time Mr.. Bostock and his
assistants had gathered around the
cage trying to rescue the trainer and
watched with apprehension the reals
tic combat between the man and the
lion. The wrestling bout. which had
commenced in the usual playful man
ner. had developed into a grim con-
test, in which one Of the combatants
was fighting for his life, and for fully
two minutes his fate seemed sealed.
Rey kept up the unequal contest, but
a further difficulty in the way of his
rescue was the fact that in cage
communicating with that of Brutus a
companion lion was making desperate
efforts to force an entry through a
half open door.
At last Brutus was lassooed by Mr..
Bostock and dragged into the adjoin-
Ing cage. After Rey had been ban
daged In the Hippodrome infirmary he
was taken to the Rothschild hospital,
where the doctors said If blood poison
ing did not set in, they hoped to save
him.

MARVELLOUS GIFT OF BIRDS.
HomIng Pigeons Able to Make Their
Roosts In Pitehy Darkness.

homlng Pigeons Able to Make Their
Roosts in Ptchy Darkness.
Although birds are not placed near
the summit line Of evolution. their
ability to fly gives them advantage
over nearly all the mammalia.
Their mysterious power of changing
their polarity or weight in order to
dive in water or fly has been often
discussed and the almost incredible
velocity Of their motion when migrat
Ing, sometimes amounting to four
miles a minute for vast distances. has
no parallel among other animals. A
series of careful trials with carrier
pigeons reported from France shows
apparently without doubt their pos
session of a highly developed sense
OF direction.
1t was supposed that homing
pigeons depended upon sight to find
their way, but these experiments have
been conducted between Ceremes and
Roam in the darkness of night. In
twenty minutes the first bird. dis
patched at 10 p. M, reached its roost
distance OF seventeen miles being
traversed. Half of the number ar
rived before midnight and the re
mainder followed in a few hours.

Grove and Rockefeller.

Pat Grove is evidently bidding for public
sympathy in confessing that at one time
he meditated kidnapping John D. Rockefel-
Ter and holding him for a ransom of two
million dollars. His purpose must be to
take himself out of the class of small op-
orators and enroll himself among the anibi-
tious. Stealing boys and holding them for
comparatively trifiing sums shows small
and unfeeiing spirit, and the public con-
dennis It. But the trust question Is an open
and an important one. and many solutions,
legislative and otherwise. have been ad-
vanced. Mr.. Groves. 1t must be admitted,
Is subject to serious objection. but 1t pos
sesses the character of novelty and audac-
ity and may lead to discussion. Mr.. Rock
efeller. 1t may be suggested, would be

ROYAL Sport.

This cable dispatch comes from Vienna:
I'm Herr Anton Dreher's preserves at
Hrottowitz 6,710 cartridges have been shot
in two days by eleven guns"
This is royal sport. 1t is one of the best
examples of royal sport that has come to
notice for some time. No doubt the Sports
men" were grimy with powder smoke and
gun grease. crimson with quail blood and
as full of feathers as an old-fashioned mat
tress. No doubt the park was Uttered with
empty shells and dead cartridges.
1t was probably great sport. Most likely
the "huntsmen" did not have to walk at all,
but rode to the park, took seats on park
bench and made themselves comfortable
while the cartridges were called or "shooed'
UP to them. Most probably the sports did
not even have the trouble Of reloading the
pieces but passed them over to a valet to
recharge. It is also quite likely that re-
cesses were taken during the sport" dur
ing which bottles were opened, pipes
smoked, cigars passed and fierce hunting
stories told.
It must have been thrilling sport. These
cartridges were no doubt much tanner than
the ordinary barnyard chickens, were reg
ularly called up to feeding place, and were
raised and tanned to make a bloody enter
tainment for some swell butchers.
The royal boar hunts In Europe have not

Jerome and Insurance.

Mr.. Jerome's position in the matter of the
insurance scandals is well and wisely taken.
He will defer presenting to the grand jury
the disclosures of the legislative investf-
eating committee until the investigation is
complete. He expresses his sense of shock
at what already stands revealed, and he
recognizes the Impotence that exists for ac-
ton by him. But, upon the whole, he
thinks the ends of. justice will best be
served by taking up the case at q later day.
and presenting it for the grand jury's con-
sideration when details both as to persons
and practices are full in all particulars.
A position in a sense similar to this was
taken few days ago by Bishop Potter Of
New York at church meeting, when a
young clergyman offered resolution bear
ing severely upon the insurance disclosures
as already made. The bishop, who was in
the chair, decided the resolution out Of or
der at the time, and suggested that it would
be time enough to express opinion after
the investigation now in progress had come
to an end Some criticism has been passed
upon the bishops course and words, but he
was right. We may not for moment doubt
where Bishop Potter and all good church.
men stand in matters Of this kind. They
would shield nothing that Is not clean and
of good report.
Mr. Jerome. we may be sure, had no cleo
pioneering ends in view, but he has added
by the position he has taken to the impor-
lance to the public of his candidacy for re-
election. There can be no doubt of the
energy of the proceedings in prosecuting the
insurance offenders If he appears for the
state. His honesty and fearlessness are be-
yond all question. In the discharge or MS
official duties he knows neither party, con-
dition, creed nor color. He goes after all Of
tenders, high or low; and If he Is reelected,
and indictments in these insurance cases
are returned, no mans wealth or eminence
will save him from the district attorneys
most vigorous prosecution.
More than ever. then, is 1t important that
Mr. Jerome succeed himself In the office he
now holds. All good men should support
him.

1t would cost money.
Now consider the change. In every town
the citizens, the press and all the local or
CARNATIONS shout "civic beauty" They
continue to shout, we demand more civic
beauty; 1t helps the town. swells our popu-

the lawn and plant shade trees In Market
Square; pull down the shanties on Front
street; make boulevard of Center street;
build new court house; the post office Is
too shabby; give US filtered water, hand

AS one bit of testimony of the growth of
this civic beauty reform, and one clipped
quite at random, Is this from the Los An
geles Times:
Z "A department devoted to civic improve
ment, under the general title The City
Beautiful, Its Streets, Parks and Lakes has
been introduced into the Times Sunday
Magazine. While it will concern itself more
especially with the development of a more
beautiful Los Angeles and the correction Of
offenses against good taste In the streets

scope Will be such that 1t will be of general
Interest and of value in other cities, towns
and villages. There is evidence of a coming

cities throughout this country. Los Angeles

tons of civic beauty are so favorable, must
