Pennvpacker's Proclamation.

Whatever he may have done In the past
TO lose prestige with the public. Gov ZEN
nypacker's proclamation just issued In ret-
erence to the necessity for peace In the coal
strike region will be applauded by all good
citizens as an eminently praiseworthy act
The governor puts the case In the paihest
possible terms. He draws attention to the IN
dustrial disturbances and then calls upon
all citizens by their conduct, example anu
utterances. whether printed or verbal 10
assist in the maintenance of the law lie
declares his purpose to sustain the law IL
disorders occur. 1t requires no stretch Vi
fine IMAGINATION to conceive that In case the
strikers or their sympathizers fail to obey
his official demand for order the governor
will exhaust his resources to crush out
rlotlng and pIlage. Indeed. the promptness
with which the state constabulary was sent
TO Mount Carmel and the thoroughness
with which IT suppressed a riot there may
be regarded as a sufficient evidence Of the
governors purpose to put down all disturb
auces with iron hand.
OF especial Importance Is the text OF the
proclamation which sets forth the principle
that every man has the right to work for
the best wages he can obtain. Thus the
governor formally declares in terms which
the most ignorant can understand the doc
trlne that while man has right to cease
working as means to better his condition,
he must abstain from lawlessness In so do
ing and he must not infringe the right OF
another man to take his place. He has no
right" says Gov. Penuypacker Ito interfere
with another man who may want to labor
Then follows this significant stralghtfor-
ward declaration. which stamps the procla-
nation with the mark Of sincerity and
force:
Violence has no place among us and will
not be tolerated. Let all men in quietness
and sOberness keep the peace and attend 10
their affairs, with the knowledge that II IS
the purpose of the commonwealth to see
that the principles herein outlined are en-
forced"
Thus the striking miners who are today
celebrating at Scranton upon the wisdom
of seeking an adjustment or continuing the
strike. are fully warned of the possible con-
sequences Of prolonging the struggle between
the workers and the operators. If the lead
ers believe that they can hold their men
from committing lawless acts, or interfering
with the free exercise Of the right of nom
union men to accept work. they will have
no reason to apprehend trouble resulting
from the strike. But they must know.
from repeated experiences, that their fol-
lowers are an ungovernable set of men.
and that disorder and ''scab-punching'' fol-
low strike order as surely as the night
follows the dawn. Upon those who order
the strike and who vote to continue 1t must
rest the responsibility for such conflicts
as may later occur between the forces of
the law and those of lawlessness.

Whites Refinement.

As prelude to the meeting OF Russia's
first popular assenablage comes the virtual
dismissal OF Count Witte from the pre-
miership and the appointment as his sue
cessor of the reactionary Goremykin. his
traditional enemy. This does not reassure
the friends OF Russian progression. II
sayors strongly OF victory for the palace
clique that has been pulling the emperor
persistently away from all concessions to
the people. Goremykin Is a man of no es-
peclal individual force. but has been re-
peatedly derided as a slow-witted creature
OF the violent reactionaries. Years ago
Witte exposed him in a bit OF shameless
deception OF the emperor regarding the
starvation OF the peasants IN a certain
province He groyeled for mercy and was
reinstated In his Office Since then he has
hated Witte bitterly. and his selection to
the premiership must be accepted as a COM
plete victory for the forces which make for
absolutism and which dread the growth
OF constitutionalism in Russia.
Witte is rather TO be congratulated than
pitied In his present situation. He does
not leave office as a martyr. to be sure.

The carnival of crime continues in the
District. Last night the wife of police
man was robbed while passing through
rock Creek Park. This assailant took
long chances, for the woman was armed
but her aim was poor. This morning an
Anacostia woman on returning home from
market was grappled by robber in her
own house and robbed of a considerable
sum of money. No arrests have yet been
made in these cases. Meanwhile thirty
eight policemen remain on duty at the
White House. And the major and super
intendent of police and the remnants OF
his force are still engaged In securing the
city and country for evidence with which
to blacken the character of Mrs Minor
Morris. In order that the Presidents as
sistant secretary may be whitewashed and
railroaded into office as the postmaster or
Washington. The situation is altogether
significant.

Heroism of the Women.

From the Buffalo News.
Almost the last of those who are &C
corded honor for their heroism at San
Francisco are the women. and especially
the trained nurses. 1t is agreed that no
others showed such GOODNESS, such un-
fiinching courage as they. No call was
awaited. but they sought for the wounded
and walked without faltering amid scenes
that even strong men could not endure
the sight of and from which they ran
away.
The good done by that band of devoted
women is not TO be estimated, and 1t is only
lust beginning to be appreciated and put on
record Due praise has been given Fun
ston and his aids for their work. The police
and fremen have figured largely IN the
dispatches. The doctors have not peen
ovarInoked. but the nurses are still await
ing their share of the common glory of
fearless and skillful service.

The Vernal Songster.

He cannot sing the songs of May.
He sought the violet
Down where the purling waters play
And where the ground is wet.
He FASTENED TO the sylvan spot
Determined to enthuse,
But-luckless oversight-forgot
To take his overshoes.
Now kindly hands have wrapped him close
In blankets warm and rough,
And every hour he takes dose
OF superheated stuff.
His Mayday task he hates to shirk;
He struggles i'll at ease.
His vocal cords refuse to work;
He can do naught but sneeze.

Circus on the Fourth.

The coming visit of Burch & Reiss'
worlds greatest shows to this city on
July 4. afternoon and night, will prove
very interesting to the students of
psychic phenomena, hypnotism, occult
ism, theosophy and to the believers in
re-incarnation in general. With these
shows is an animal trainer by the
name of Herr Kirchem, graduate of
Merburg college, Germany. Herr Kirch-
ems method of training animals is alb
solutely different from any other here
tofore employed. The professor claims
that all animals have souls; are capable
of thought and when properly under
stood their reasoning powers cannot be
disputed. 1t is needless to say that
the professor is an enthusiastic be-
lever in theosophy His method Of
training animals Is to keep them calm
and to converse with them in a low,
conversational tone; to treat them
kindly; to gain their confidence and
to always look them straight in the
eye. In this way the professor has
been able to subdue the most ferocious
lions and tigers, and he has trained q
camel to a point of excellence never
before attained. He has likewise been
able to place a camel, pony and a large
dog into a state of hypnosis. In one
instance it is recorded that he placed
a snake into a cataleptic state so per-
fectly that the reptile resembled a
walking stick in it's straightness and
the rigidity Of it's body. The camel,
dog and pony are put through their
wonderful feats of intelligence by
means of this power at every perform
ance. The scoffer and unbeliever will
find many things in Herr Kirchems
wonderful experiments that will re-
quire a lot of explaining. All of the
$50 dogs, ponies, goats, camels. pigs,
zebras, ant eaters, bosindicus, llamas,
tapirs and other animals are under
the immediate charge of Herr Kirchem.
Such a thing as a whip is never used
with those now big shows. This will
be the first western tour of Messrs.
Burch & Reiss' animal shows, and
they will no doubt create a sensation.
In addition to the multitudinous ami
NAL acts will be shown troupes of
aerialists, acrobats, clowns, gymnasts,
bicyclists, jugglers, equilibrists, nee
romancers and Gregory's Royal Italian
Banda Rosa, the finest musical or
ganization ever carried with a tented
exhibition. A grand free street parade
will be given at II o'clock on the
morning Of the exhibition. Two per-
formances will be given under large
waterproof tents.
