disintegrating influence within can affect
their essential soundness.
We hear much said of vice and corrup.
ton, much OF the subtle enemies OF tho
state and social order, but the great heart
of the people is as sound and incorruptible
today as at any hour in all of our match
less history. The conscience OF the people
has not been scared. Pure materialism has
not achieved the mastery. All of the forces
which make for the intellectual and moral
and the social advancement OF the people
were never more powerful and never in
FULLER play than they are today. Honor
among men was never more regarded, and
dishonorable practices. either in public
or private life, were never moro abhorred
then they are today There has been upon
every hand demand that those who hold
place and power shall be clean men, and
that they shall consecrate themselves COM
pletely to the utmost advancement OF the
public welfare.
The American people are going forward
and upward with tremendous momentum.
They are advancing in all OF the ways
which make for strong, upright patri-
Otto people. They respect right and con-
denim wrong in every relation of life. Those
who would contaminate the state. or would
carry into the business world low ideals
OF business morality. can lay claim
to the general respect. The American peo-
pie are not to be juged by the standards
OF the exceptional wrongdoer, but by the
generous purpose of the great body OF our
countrymen. The currents which course
the veins of the American people are
sentially as pure now as those which filled
the veins of our ancestors.
One Hundred Years Progress.
The past one hundred years have been
notable in our history. The story we have
written. both in war and peace. challenges
the admiration of mankind
Our development in every avenue of
human endeavor is unsurpassed and is an
invitation for us TO go forward In the ac-
complishment of even greater things. We
have won rich trophies. both in the ways
OF peace and in the theater OF war.
Against the glories of war we set the rich
achievements of peace. We know what
war is. for we have its iudeible imprint
everywhere. We have come to believe that
advancing civilization must lead further
and further away from war and the pos
sbilites of armed collision. II would seem
that the entire world is coming to regard
war as more and more unnecessary and is
earnestly seeking to establish some method
whereby IL may be honorably avoided.

HERO OF THE KEARSARGE.
How Captain Rooster Died After Ex
 pIosion on Battleship.

From Washington Dispatch to the New York Sun.
 The story of the death of a hero, an en-
 listed man of the navy who, although
 mortally injured, wanted to go to the as-
 sistance of perishing comrades, and whose
 delirium during the period between the time he was injured and the time he died
 was confined solely to carrying out his
 duties, has just reached Washington through the naval officers who witnessed it. It was on the battleship kearsarge, In
 Manzanilo Bay, in April. when two or three hundred pounds of smokeless pow der became ignited in the forward 13-inch gun turret, killing nine men. There were many heroes that day both among the
 dead and living, but the case of Turret Captain Julius A. Rooster stood out in
 bolder relief to those who saw. Target practice for that day had been finished and the crew of the forward tur-
 ret were cleaning things up. Rooster was directing the extraction of uneXploded
 powder and of an undischarged shell from the breech of the gun. Three sections of powder were on the floor. A pair of iron shell tongs struck an exposed electric switch. There was ''short circuit" of | powerful current, fusing of metal, and | molten bits of fire dropped on the exposed
 powder.
 Rooster was badly burned Somehow he managed to get out of the turret, but no sooner was he outside than he wanted to | go back in to help those who were still | there. An ensign ran forward. His first words to Rooster. standing there sightless and dying, with clothes and flesh burned away, were: "Don't touch yourself" i Rooster was doing his best to keep on
 with his work

 saying anything"

WIGWAM DINNER IN COURSES.
How an Indian Chief Returned Wash
 ington Hospitality.

From the Youths Companion
 Years ago Colonel Crocker. a doughty Indian fighter-peacemaker as well among the soldiers and copper colored inhabi- tants of the hills of Nebraslka-became the object of old chiefs sincere ad- miration. The chief has long since passed to the happy hunting ground Colonel Crocker was gentleman to the manner born, and punctilious to the furthest de- gree, whether on the trail of a band of redskn marauders in the camp on the plains, at the army post or at special gathering in Washington.
 On one occasion while the Colonel was in Washington the old chief who so ad- mired him was among the Indian guests invited to the city of the White Father. The old chief soon found his old friend and former foe-and at once attached him self to the officer. The Colonel was not averse to the attention; indeed, he en- joyed hobnobblng with hs ancient en- emy of the plains and valleys of Nebraska and bethought himself how he might best entertain the old chief. Why not give a dinner to the old chief, do things a la mode and give him food for thought to take back to his wigwam under the foot hills?
 The spread was most fastidious the viands were all that could be desired,
 
 and was just as the Colonel intended 1t should be.
 the old chief ate in silence, and Nemed to pay attention to nothing so much as the stiff backed waiter who came and went like an automaton during the meal.
 After it was over the chief grunted as he rubbed his stomach. Heap good eat! Big man make much fuss-tree, four, seben time"
 After the Colonel returned to his post he was approached by the old chief, who invited him to his wigwam for "big eat" Colonel Crocker often told about the episode.
 Times had not treated the old chief well: the hunting season had failed to stock his larder with the good things of the chase There was not an ounce of deer or bear or buffalo meat in the wig wam The place was poorly lighted, smoke curled from the small fire in the back and slowly fioated from the opening al the top The Colonel found the old chief already seated at his plain board table. He pointed to the block opposite, and the Colonel seated himself The old mans squaw came in and placed before each of them dish of-mush and molasses. After eating, the chief uttered in loud voice:
 Here 'em. squaw. take 'em away, squaw."
 The stoiclike creatue took the dishes away.
 Here 'em, squaw, bring 'em back squaw.'
 Again the squaw entered with the dishes-mush and molasses as before Again they cleared the dishes. and again the old chief ordered:
 Here 'em, squaw, take 'em away, squaw"
 This strange proceeding took place pre- cisely seven times. Not another word was passed between the chief and the Colonel The awdry old squaw waitress was as ons graven from stone, the silence of it all was only broken by the commando; Here 'em, squaw. take 'em away, sauaw; here 'em sauaw, bring 'em back. squaw.'

What Caused Damage In Frisco?

From Leslie's Weekly.
 As all the world knows, or should know. the San Francisco earthquake' though terrible enough and quite un- nrecedented in it's severity for that re- zion. was not in itself an event of ap- palling proportions, and the direct loss of property by it was comparatively slight. It was accompanied by no rend- ings of the earth and no tidal waves, such, for example, as gave the Lisbon horror its worst and most destructive features. In the earthquake itself there was not anything of fearful portent for the future of the city, anything whose possible recurrence should necessarily excite fear and apprehension for life and property.
 The fire was the chief agent of loss and destruction, and this, though caused by the earth tremble, belongs here, as everywhere, among the pre- ! ventable things. It Is entirely rational

Tramps Welcomed In Delaware.

From the Baltimore Sun.
 Delaware is the only state in the union that welcomes tramps. Advices received today from Sussex county state that hoboes are arriving in droves from all parts of the country preparatory to pick ing fruit. So badly do the fruit growers and farmers in general need help to gather their crops that many of them are actually helping the tramps to build wig wams in order that they will be comfort able and not seek pastures new.
 In some cases these temporary houses are being built on the farms. Labor is very scarce in lower Delaware and the negro help Is unreliable. thus compelling the farmers to encourage the influx oi hoboes.
 In view of the expected large fruit crop the welcome to tramps Will exteno throughout the state. Merchants in the various towns are laying in large stocks to feed the newcomers.

eyes, and added a word of encourage


 Twenty shots and twenty hits. Hurrah for the Kearsarge!" and Rooster threw up his arms and died.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-06-24

to suppose that the new water supply
 system of San Francisco may be so
 devised that an earthquake of similar severity occurring in the future would not leave the city again at the mercy of the flames. as was the case this time With buildings constructed, and fire protective system arranged, in the light of the recent experience, no reason exists why San Francisco should not offer fully as much safety for residence or business purposes as most other cities of the world. Certain great and inevitable risks attend life
 in great cities, and San Francisco ia no worse than any other large center of population and business activities in this respect, now nor in the future.

Editor Warns the Girls.

From the Junction City (Kan) Sentinel.
 Girls, we never tried it, but 1t is our opinion you had better be an old maid than to be the slave of some worthless man. and there is great quantity of them in circulation. So don't be in a hurry to marry. you can do that almost any time. Those who have tried 1t say it is quite task to cut loose from . stick of a man after you tie up to ons.

TO REBUILD SIDEWALKS

Bessemer, June 23-(Special.)-A a special executive meeting of the City Council held last night the Mayor and city clerk were authorized to borrow $lO 600 from the Bessemer Trust and Bank ing company for the completion of the storm sewer begun some time ago.
 The first estimates on the sewer called for an expenditure of about S14,000 but that amount has been exhausted and 1t is now estimated that it will take about $l0OO0 more to complete the work.
 Half of the s1OO0O to be borrowed will be used in the construction of the sewer and the remaining $5OO0 will be used as sinking fund.
 The city is having to advance the money for the work until the sewer is com pleted and the cost of construction can be collected from the property benefited.
 The matter of changing the parked sidewalks in the city was also consid- cred and 1t was decided to cut all the sidewalks so paved down to the regula- tion width at the expense of the city. Some time ago when this matter was ur before the board a resolution was adopt ed prohibiting the building of any more sidewalks wider than twelve or fifteen feet which is provided in the city code
 Mayor Sullivan has been granted a months leave of absence for vaca- tion.
