SELECTING VOLUNTEERS.
Men Chosen by General Washington
 Had to Be Excellent Marksmen.

Whenever the United States has been at war with any other country 1t has always been a matter for serious complaint on the other side that the Americans take accurate aim before fring-with extremely fatal results. How excellent was the marksmanship of the volunteers on Bunker Hill Is q matter of record, says Youths Com panion. There is an interesting entry in the diary of John Narrower. an in dentured schoolmaster of Virginia.
 Colonel Washington. of this col- ony," he wrote. "being appointed gen- eralissimo of all the American forces raised and to be raised. made de mand of five hundred rifiemen from the fronteers of this colony. But those that insisted on going far exceeded the number wanted. when. in order to avoid offence. the Commanding oficer chuse his company by the following method.
 He took . board of a foot square, and with chalk drew the shape of a moderate nose in the centre and nailed 1t up to a tree at one hundred and fifty yards distance. and those who came highest the mark with single ball was to go. But by the first forty or fifty that fired the nose was all blown out of the board. and by the time his Company was up the whole board had shared the same fate"

SYLVAN AVENUE IS DARK
Petition Has Beea Presented to City Govern
 ment for Electric Lights.

A petition, numerously signed, has been presented to the city government by residents and property owners of Sylvan avenue, outside district, ask ing that three electric lights be in stalled in that street, one on the knoll next south of the residence of Michael McGrath: one at the corner of Edgewood avenue and Sylvan av- enue. and one in the angle next north of the residence of Henry E. Rech- berger. The street is we'll lighted up to the old city line but from that point south there are no lights, no city water, no police or fire protection, no mail delivery, and a street that needs some attention. The petitioners re present that they don't want to be un- reasonable about these things. but they do feel that they are entitled 10 something and want to begin by being put in position so that they may be able to see where they are going in the night time. There is quite little settlement of honest working people out there, who don't make much noise and as result they appear to be get ting lost in the shuttle.

SUPERIOR COURT
Leonard and cene.ky Will Re
 Tried Next Week.

The superior court. criminal side. opens here tomorrow, with Judge Shumway on the bench. At 2 o'clock the jail prisoners will be put to plea, and as there are quite q number of them, it will take almost the entire afternoon before they will be disposed of. A case against James Coer, who is charged with theft from the person, has been added to the list. Assistant States Attorney Kellogg has arrang- ed for the trial of Cenesky and Leon ard for the murder of Thomas C. Lockwood, to begin week from to- morrow. It is still stated that each of them will insist on trial, though 1t is probable however that when they are brought face to face with the jury they will plead guilty to murder in the second degree, if it will be ac- cepted. The case against Sabino Per riello for the murder of Angelo Solo. mita will not be heard at this term. though the grand jury will pass upon 1t Wednesday.

BRYAN LOOKS AHEAD
correspondent Says He is Alive for the Good
 of the Republic.

10 the Editor of the Democrat: :,
 The recent withdrawal of William
 l. Bryan from the board of trustees of
 Illinois college, his alma mater. only
 goes to prove the farsightedness of
 this man in everything pertaining. to-
 the welfare of the Affitfiaah ft3eople.'
 We have never had since the days of
 Thomas Jefferson a man so fully alive
 to the present and future of this re-
 public as a democracy. as he who was | it's standard bearer in 1896 and 1900. | The board of trustees of that college. sought 10 take advantage of the offer
 made by Andrew Carnegie to extend financial assistance to smaller west ern colleges. In his letter of with drawal from the board Mir Bryan said:
 "Our college cannot serve God and
 Maimmon. It cannot be college for the people and at the same time com
 mend itself to the commercial high waymen who are now subsidizinT the colleges to prevent the teaching of economic truths" Mir Bryan evident ly believes that our seats of learning
 should be free from all contaminating influences of money obtained through corrupt legislation or by other dishon- est methods. It must be evident to the mind of all who have the welfare of this republic at heart that the time is ripe for the uprising of the American people against the corruption of the day. Napoleon once made the declar- ation that the English people were q nation of shop-keepers and that the counting house was their church: the ledger their Bible, and gold their God. Have the American people got down to this standard of their ancient en- emy and become fascinated with it's charms. and even gone back to the olden days of the Mosaic period when that great leader had to reproye his people for their folly In the erection and worship of golden calf.
 The dollar of today Is greater than the man who creates 1t. aud there should be a reversal of this fact. In TO way can this be more effectually accomplished than fin the assumption of its crea tor of the power inherent ;n himself. Under our form offgovern- ment we have the greatest instrument for either good or evil of any people on the face of the globe. and it Is therefore that Mir Bryan puts his stamp of disapproval upon any at tempt on the part of these moneyed lords of our day in their effor1 to cor ] rupt and denOralize the coming citi- l zen of the future. Our whole fabric l. of government rests with .he integrity afd carabilfty of the voter and the | legislator. and our institutions and seats of learning should be unconiam- Inafei and free from the ccrTupting influences of in-gOtten wealth. .1 is by and through the ballot that We must look with greater care for an tat is vital. valuable and attatnsble In a government created hy the pte- pie and for the Irople.
