COMMENT
OUR PIONEERS SHOULD ORGANIZE.
W. c. Black, Editor

A y organization that would receive much merited respect, and
association of Carson Sink pioneers. A new era has already
dawned. Its success is assured by the h%ardihood of those who
builded first, and whose trugality and industry furnished examples
of what it is possible to accomplish in a desert region. Nothing
could be more interesting TO the thousands who will soon in
habit this section. than a history OF our embryonic times. 1t
would furnish examples that could be emulated with profit by
those who are taking up the work of the pioneer. 1t would tend
to encourage the new settler in the process of surrounding
difficulties, which when compared to the difficulties presented by
the DAYS of from 10 to 60 sink into insignihcance.
There are many white haired men and women, ilustrious
people whose honesty and steadfastness of purpose is proverbial
who remember WILDLY the early days. The asterisks OF time
are rapidly thinning their ranks, and unless a pioneers associa-
tion is formed soon, there will be none worthy of membership
With their passing, which at the best cannot be many years
away, a great deal of history that shout be preserved will die.
The old settlers are conscious of having builded we'll, and the
knowledge is responsible for a JOY that is subdued. They must
realize proudly, that the simple part which they performed is
greater than all succeeding development, because without it. oul
section as we know it could not have been. Cheerful as becomes
those vho accept the decree of age as a part of the program OF
life; ready to pass away when the time comes; glad to stay
among the conditions for which they have striven, the old
settlers of this section should come together at least once every
year from no " on. Their meeting would be an occasion as i'm
portant in a local sense as July the Fourth or Christmas.

MARCH.

on a mighty general has now command
Under all the sky's blue arch!
lie heads his troops DER sea and land
And his orders are. Forward march,"
30 IN orderly and well-kept ranks,
The wild geese northward go
And along the streams and the river banks
Their silver bugles blow
Inc plackbrd army, million strong
Into marching order gets
And the redwing troops now pass along
In their scarlet epaulets
Each day the snow retreats so fast
And the little brooks, set free
Their winter quarters leave at last
And march down to the sea-
And the happy boys, when this they saw
Marched out with merry tramp
AND sailed forth with a loud ''Hurrahl"
To the glorious sugar camp!
on mighty leader indeed is he!
What marchings through the land
what stirring scenes always see
When March is in command!

COMRADES.
By Frank H. Sweet.
The Youths Companion.

When Howard's father died, and he went to live
with his Uncle Esbons family, he found a social
atmosphere totally different from that to which
he had been accustomed. For years his mother
had been invalid and after her death his father
had secluded himself more and more with his hooks
ana sermons, only going out the necessary du-
ties of his small country church demanded How
ara mad grown up quiet and delicate, natural stu
dent, and with his love for books shared by an all
most equal love for carving blocks of wood into
beautiful and quaint designs When the homo was
broken, many of these given away to friends
some were taken to Uncle Esbons.
Here the delicate boy found himself in q strange
world Of robust activity and enjoyment Tom the
Oldest cousin, ardent golfer and angler.
VIII owned a shotgun, and was fond of making if
the SUBJECT of his conversation, and Mary was
equally enthusiastic about her bicycle. All three
could row and sail boat could swim, dive ride
morse, play tennis golf, and could walk half dozen
miles without sense of fatigue. Not one of these
was among the attachments of the boy whose work
had been confined to books and carving Even hts
Aunt Ellen could and ride and play with as
much interest and almost much skill as the
young people.
For time Howard followed them about with
kndling eyes from the tennis court to the golf field
and into the woods with Will, and even venture5
out upon the water 1t was delightful he thought
and represented the glorious things he had missed
Then on their part, they encouraged him TO 90
along. He was such wistful, delicate little fell
low tNa1 1t was an easy charity to show him so
much Attention.
EFT as the days went by and ne found that he
0'd not understand the games, and could rot row
Cr swim or ride, the excitement began to pail and
ne withdrew more and more to the secluson of his
ROOM TO his books and carving. His cousins ac-
cepted the withdrawal philosophically, for after
ALL a non participant was a drag
Sometimes his Aunt Ella interposed and fried 70
induce him to join in the pleasures but no
showed such reluctance, and his cousins such lack
OF enthusiasm that she finally dessted and he be-
came almost as much of a recluse as he had been in
his own home.
But somehow he could not find the same pleasure
IN MS chosen pursuits that he had then There
was thrill i'm the activity of this house that touch
eu some responsive boyish chord and he often left
ms books to watch their games from his window
III he could only play golf tennis or row thew
might be glad for him to join them as an eoua1
Perhaps they would even be willing to show him a
httle-but at this thought his sensitive nerves al
ways took alarm. No he would not be q bother
TO anybody; and he certainly must be one when in
truding on his cousins at their games

THIEVES GOT ED1BLEs AND WINES
This Was All Their Loot-Deteotive Waited,
but They Didn't Return.

Three burglars feasted themselves 70 their
hearts content in the home OF Mrs. Charles
Wilmot, a widow. at No. 500 West End avenue.
yesterday afternoon They dlsdained wines less
than ten years old. and carefully selected the
choicest eatables and drinkahles which they
could find Contenting themselves with what
they ate and drank, they departed without TAX
ing any Of the silverware or costly furs IN the
closets.
The three cracksnen left guard on the roof
Of No. 81. which they visited first. and ran
sacked the apartments Of Mrs. John Z. Wilson.
They found nothing there. however. but went
next door to No. 367. where Jacob Halsted. a
broker lives. Here. too. they found their labor
had been I'm vain, for Mr.. Halsted was away IN
the country, and everything OF value had been
removed
In No S65 they found silverware and surs
valued at 5000 within easy reach. but when
they tried TO get 1t TO the roof they found the
bag they had brought would not go through
the opening So the bag left there with
the loot intact.
Then they invaded No. 500. where they closed
their nights work with feast
The police of the West 6sth street station. in
response TO the complaint of a very excited
woman sent a detective to the block. He took
up a station the roofs where the burglars
had been two hours before and when nightSall
came he was still there waiting for what he
said was a trio OF burglars although how he
knew the number he didn't say.

SCENES At SVE4BORG.
Forts Badly Battered by Shells from
the Warships.

HelsingSors, Aug 3-The correspondent OF The
Associated Press was permitted to-day 30 look
over tne fortress on rfe main island well all
The ether fortincations overlooking the town. al
though the officials who complied with his re-
quest were careful not 70 allow him 20 see the
guns The scenes proved the truth OF the state
menfs that the muiineers had the upper hand in
practically an the fortresses until the arrival OF
tsle warsfi1s.
Escorted by an officer, the correspondent saw
an tire minor barracks and Notifications and the
wharf and neighboring quays. which bristled
with machine guns. F1agstaffs had been splin-
tered, as if the mutsneers had tried 90 shoot
swav the Russian cOIors. The most severe fire
from the fortress was directed on the head
quarters OF the commander. who. on the second
day oE the trouble. was forced 20 seek shelter
in q better protected place.
The barracks I'm the vicinity showed plainly
sie effects OF the fighting. They are to-day
nothing more than fottering ruins, upheld by
snon girders. The church in which hang the
memorials og the French and English lombard
r,enr OF 1855 was struck several times, but IL is
evident that the mutsneers dld not wish 20 de-
stroy the building, in spite OF the tact that none
oS SIS windows remain whole.
Results OF the firing were seen every hand,
fragments ot sslrapnel chain shot and shells lit
terfny all the walks. The fortress itself bore
gnany signs OF the bombardment, great rents in
the walls holes in the roof and shattered win
dors telling their own tales. The correspondent
was not permitted examine in detail the fOrti~
acafions held by the rebels as these form part
OF The national defeaces and are secret. There IS
no question that until the warships came UP the
government was powerless. and was simply able
20 hold its positions. The commander had
scarcely fed from his headquarters leaving them
a heap Of ruins, when the warships crept up the
coast ana opened fire. Taken unawares with
out leaders and with little food, the nutineers
surrendered.
II appears that there were two officers
among the mutinous men. Lieutenant Kohon-
sky and Lieutenant Emiljanoff The latter was
wounded. KOhonsky gave himself up TO the Bo-
G2tyr and asked pardon.
A special court is coming here from 81 Peters
burg next week 90 try the prisoners. One thou
sand men are confined in Helsingfors and Ska
tu6den.
The total OF the casualties IS not yet known,
but six hundred and fifty men are missing. 1t Is
impossible to say how many were wounded.
Only Eve officers were killed
