The.St. Paul Globe suggests that dur
ing the closed reason at least we might
spare our state game warden for Kussia's
use in protecting the game in her ducal
regime. -

A st. Paul legislator has introduced a
bill making it rnanslaughter for deer
hunters to kill men by mistake. What's
the use? 1t won't prevent the mistakes
and no such law was ever known to be
enforced. Sentiment always overcomes
hard sense, and the law too, in prosecu-
tiops for criminal carelessness. The out
come of the prosecutions for the terrible
Chicago theater disaster shows that too
we'll.

Hill district was fought on June Il,
1775.1 a j. z.5 .:s sS ##tz {.55gs -~
Sc It was II years before any ce1ebra-
tion took place, and even then the
event was most conspicuo ots !: =. ;'-' !" b. tt~e-
lation to the opening of the&~ haar.as
river bridge, just now torn down. - &
The first monument was erected ,5y
King Solomon lodge F. and ~ NJ, in
honor Of Gen. Warren. This was a
Tuscan pillar 1sfeets high, standing on
PEDESTAL eight feet III height. +"
The first formal movement for ap
association to erect u monument was
on May 10, 1923, in response to a call
signed by Daniel Webster, w. Tudor
and Theodore Lyman, Jr. The mem
bership fee was five dollars, but this
nucleus was slowly augmented. Sub
scriptions were slow and bequests few,
says the Boston Globe.
A lottery was proposed, but Massa-
chusetts sentiment forbade it. Patriot
ic women took hold of the matter, and
to them is due large amount of credit
for success.
Still, after various struggles, and the
danger cf stopping construction be-
fore the shaft had reachedEthe desig-
mated height, the capstone was placed
in position on the morning of June II,
1S43, and the celebration of completion
took place with cannon's roar, trum-
pet blare and changing of bells, and the
Grafton of Daniel Webster, who had
performed similar duties at the LAYING
of the corner stone by Lafayette in
1928.
The regular celebrations of the bat
ties anniversary have never lost their
interest. Parades. decorations, salutes,
music, bell ringing, banquets, speeche es
and other features crowd the moments
for more than "a hours.
A chief feature in many years has
been the grotesque parade, in early
morning, of the antiques and hor-
ribles. the local hits vieing with car
features of prominent events of gen
eral character, and taxing for weeks
the genius and acumen of the COM
mittee of arrangements.
A unique incident in the celebration
of 1869 was entirely without previous
suggestion. The night before the 18th
two of the committee happened into a
hotel in Boston and ran across a busi-
ness man from New York, who bore a
striking resemblance to Gen. U. S.
Grant. They told him of the celebra-
tion, craved his assistance and he ac-
cepted.
Next morning he was taken in the
most elegant barouche to be procured
in Boston, and with dignitaries of the
Bunker Hill city in the same car
riage. he was driven over. A proper
military personal escort accompanied
him, and he was dressed in full mill
tary uniform, and constantly smoked
cigar, WHICH was at least nine inches
long.
AS he was escorted into the line of
motley antiques there was no need of
introduction. Seven-eighths of the
people were completely deceived, and
as he rode along plaudits burst the at
mosphere, while he, complacent as the
hero of Appomattox, quietly bowed
his acknowledgements, with dotted
chapeau and unruff1ed countenance.

The Duty of a Gentleman.

On another occasion, having return
ed from playing poker at the club, my
grandfather said:
when a man is hard up he should
borrow, but he must devote his ener-
gies to paying back and remaining the
equa! of the man from whom he has
borrowed. If he cannot pay back, let
him be frank about it, for it is better
to steal than to cheat"
And again:
ITO ride straight and to shoot
straight, to win money cheerfully and
to lose it cheerfully, never to be boor-
ishly in debt or swinishly drunk, to en-
Joy flowers and music, and if possible
to be in love with at least one good
woman, is half the duty of a gentle
man."
whats the other half, grandpa?''
had asked him.
"Why, to be gentleman, of course"

Cutting Jewel. Under water.

s"The precious stone workers Of Ger
many are among the most interesting
persons have ever seen when engaged
in cutting their Jewels" said a well
known traveller. "The principal indus
try is at Freiburg, on the edge of the
Black forest, in which the precious
stones are found. The principal jew
els are amethyst, lapis lazuli and mala-
chite. The process of cutting them is
the interesting part of the work. All
Of them are cut under water. The
jewel cutters lie fiat upon their stom-
achs while at work, with their hands
under water, holding the stone which
is being prepared, and the motion of
the wheel does the cutting. The action
of the water makes the process more
rapid and at the same time leaves
better surface than if cut in the air.

a story Of Joe Manley

Chief Justice Fuller of the United
States supreme court was on visit to
Maine some years ago and while there
was entertained by Joe Manley. Mr..
Manley was held in great reverence by
his fellow citizens all over Maine and
especially in Augusta, his home. He
took Mr.. Fuller for drive about the
place, but was forced by pressing
business engagement to leave his guest
before the drive was finished. When
Mr.. Manley had disappeared the driver
turned to the judge, whom he did not
know, and, drawing out cigar, said:
II suppose you don't mind if smoke.
When we are driving Mr.. Manley we
never light up, because he's rather a
distinguished citizen" Fuller repress-
ed laugh and told the driver to go
ahead, which he did. Later the chief
Justice retailed the joke to Mr.. Manley,
who at the first opportunity told the
driver few things, winding up, You
miserable three ply idiot, that was the
chief justice of the United States"

Bears mat FISH For sa1mon.

Alaska's brown bears near the Boring
sea live largely on salmon and are eX-
traordinary fishers. Before beginning
to fish they always place themselves
on the downward side of the river.
''They seem to smell the salmon by
some extraordinary MEANS" says a
hunter, land then begin dashing in and
out of the river at some shallow place,
rarely falling to catch fish. They
bring it out on the bank and devour it,
if possible selecting some thick patches
of bushes and grass in which to make
their meal, which does not take them
long"

Provident Animals.

All birds of the crow tribe, rocks es-
pecially, exhibit tendency toward
winter-like squirrels and some other
animals-to lay up store of provisions
for their sustenance against a season
of scarcity. While jackdaws select
holes of trees and old buildings to store
away such provisions, rocks convey
them away to their rookeries. There in
last seasons nests they deposit them.
Toward springtime, when they begin
thinking about setting their houses in
order, they visit their rookeries and
when rebuilding their nests throw out
the unused store. Thus 1t is we often
find an accumulation of acorns, pota-
toes and what not on the ground under
their nests.-Nature Notes.

Reading a Telegram.

There are two members of the racing
fraternity, both ardent horse owners,
whose early education was sadly neg
lected, and neither can read. Both
conceal to the best of their ability their
shortcomings in this regard One Of
them received telegram the other
day, but he could not read it and did
not wish to expose his ignorance. He
met the second horseman, and as he
was looking anything but pleasant he
was accosted with:
whats the matter? You look like
trouble"
Trouble? Sure. Just read that"
And he thrust the telegram into his
friends hands.
"Well, should say it was trouble"
was the unexpected reply. I'm sorry
for you, old fellow" And the tele-
gram was handed back, neither being
any wiser as to its contents.
At this juncture stable boy came
whistling along, and the recipient Of
the message hailed him with jocular
remark and after quizzing him awhile
said:
"I'll bet you can't read, son."
"Huh, that's where you're way off!
kin read4as good as you kin"
"Well, let's hear you read that. If
you can it's two bit piece for you"
The harmless telegram was read, and
now both of the men are wondering
what the other meant by saying the
message denoted trouble.-San Fran
cisco Chronicle.

An Ancient Tunnel.

Tunnels are no new things Id his

early Hebrew records that the conduit
which conveys water from spring to
the pool Of Sloan, on the west side of
Jerusalem, was, like the Simplon tun-
mel, cut from both ends Of the interven-
ing ridge. But the Hebrew workers
miscalculated, and while there should
have been still three cubits about FIVE
feet to excavate they heard the voices
of the workers in the other tunnel, as
there was deviation Of the lines,
