universal concord. At least | think
am not. Steps have been taken,
and substantial progress already
has been made. The plans of the
interparliamentary union are am
bilious; but not more so than the
situation justfies. The idea of dis
armament, as voiced by the advo-
Gates of universal peace. is well ex-
pressed as to its principle, by NJ
Bourgeois, head of the French dele
cation at the conference called in
1899 by the cZar. He said:
The object of civilizatiuh
seems to us to be to abolish more
and more the struggle for life be-
tween men. and to put in its stead
an accord between them for the
struggle against unrelenting forces
of matter.

AUTO HUNG OVER A DITCH.

That Henry Hopper, of AZ West
One Hundred and Thirty-seventh
street is an intrepid chauffeur was the
verdict returned recently by an ad-
mring jury of policemen, says the
New York Times.
Hopper was plotting two-ton auto
mobile hanson down Broadway at
Thirty-eighth street. On the west
side of the street ten Italians under an
Irish foreman were busy in a hole
eight feet deep and 15 feet square, en-.
larging a sewer pipe top. Just as Hop
per's machine neared the excavation
the steering gear broke and the auto
made for the hole. The Italians saw
1t coming and scrambled for dear life.
While they were struggling to get
out the automobile, with Hopper still
in the seat, crashed into fence OF
two-inch plank set upon barrels sur
rounding the excavation. The ma.
chine snapped the fence and then ran
into second one of equal thickness.
The second fence stopped the machine
just as 1t leaned over the hole-half
way In and half way out--towering
over the palefaced Italians who were
huddled speechless In a corner.
AS the machine leaned over the hole
Hopper looked down and laughed.
Come out O that" he commanded.
"and help me get out O. this" They
he lighted a cigarette and crossed his
legs nonchalantly. A crowd of 500
persons was soon on the scene.
Twenty men tried to pull the auto
back to the street. but they couldn't
bulge it. Then somebody got a rope
and hitched one end to the machine
and another to a trolley car standing
near by. The car backed away. but
still the machine wouldn't leave the
excavation.
Then they connected two cars, and
by their combined force the hanson
was restored to the pavement.
Hopper didn't want to leave his seat
while all this was going on, but the
police made him get down. After II
was all over he jumped to the box
again. put ION the power and scooted
west into Thirty-eighth street. The
machine was uninjured and the crowd
cheered
