careful English people fail TO rhyme it

"GeIl" was no doubt the nearest the
average man could get TO the sound

WHEN NEPTUNE

Army and Navy Pagent at
Jamestown Still a Great
Feature of the Fair.

Norfolk, Va. July 9.-Soldiers and
sailors, the ships and the sea, martial
music and the roar of the battleships
broadsides. Palaces of peace filled
with things of pure delight; sylvan SOL
itudes and merry mazes of festivity
Shoreline; azure dome of a Virginian
sky above all; that is the picture of
the jamestown exposition.
To offer one Of the most unique mill
itary spectacles and one of the great
est naval spectacles of all time is the
distinctive and splendid privilege of the
jamestown exposition. The latter
made manifest in the immense gather
ing of formidable war ships Of all ma
tions that are dropping their anchors
before the sea gates of this transcend
ent celebration. Judging from the i'm
mense interest displayed in the imita-
tion battleship al the Chicago worlds
fair this vast assemblage of the fleets
of the nations will be the browning at
traction for the millions of visitors, es-
pecially those from the interior The
great fleet has assembled, and the mag
nificent array Of American battleships
now lined on Hampton Roads is by far
the greatest yet gathered beneath the
American flag.
OF the freign fleets that of Great
Britain is the most imposing, and when
the great ship "Dreadnaught" arrives,
this, the worlds greatest fighting craft,
Will make an exposition by itself
No other American harbor, and very
few in the world could afford anchor
age to the stupendous aggregation that
is now in Hampton Roads and that Will
shortly be augmented
UneQualled in the history of Ameri-
can naval displays, it will yield pre-
cedence only to the great gathering off
the Isle of Wight at the time of Queen
Victorias diamond jubilee No other
exposition in all history ever had such
an asset.

so long as Harry Thaw's case remains
undecided.
The trouble with the unwritten law
is that il is unwTitten. It proves too
much. There are no limits set TO its
vagaries. In the Loving case it justi-
fed the father in shooting a man who
gave a drink of whiskey TO his daugh-
ter, the jury having assured Judge
Loving that no assault was committed.
In the Thaw case unwritten law is
cited to justify Thaw in shooting the
alleged seducer of his wife. who had
also been his mistress. although the
o6anse was committed years before the
marriage and was known to Thaw at
that time. In the Strothers case it sets
free a man who killed his sisters hus-
band for the suspected intention TO de-
sert her after the marriage. In the
Birdsong case 1t was invoked to free

sired 70 have him shot-a demand so

TO appreciate the menace of the '.un-

The Columbia State says that the un-
written law IS a terrible stain upon
civilization" and that where the courts
practically give warrant TO procedure
that makes II easy for a YEA k
or vicious woman TO have ono man sac

comes a monstrous evil" In Judge
Loving's own state the Richmond New

Our old friend Chance of the Cubs
was as guilty of as fragrant a piece of
rOwdyism and loss of temper as ever
could be charged TO a baseball player
OF either league, since baseball became
the American sport. 1t occurred in the
last half OF the ninth inning when
Husk, who had been made the target
Of an excited bleacherite with a bottle
as a weapon. Immediately picked up
In said bottle as soon as he could reach
it and hurled it with all his force back
into the crowd. The bleacherites inn
mediately retaliated with a shower Of
bottles but Chance, thoroughly aroused,
refused to retreat. and threw the bot
ties back as fast as he could grab
them The rest of the players ran to
the manager and brought him back to
the bench while the crowd was only
kept at bay by twenty policemen.
Chance narrowly escaped a mobbing at
the hands of the excited fans. The
game itself was a small matter be-
sides the fight. Miner Brown had
things all his own way and the game
was won by the Cubs by score OF
; 10 0.
