which reynard bears among the rest
of the animals. 1t lis questionable
whether any wild creature can COM
pete with the fox In craftiness. To
look at him generally, even in his or
binary habits, he exhibits an amount
OF cleverness which astonishes one.
Should fox catch hedgehog, whose
spines effectually protect him from
most Of his enemies, he does not waste
time, as fox terrier will do, in en-
deavoring to worry his prey. He mere
y rolls him to the nearest water,
knowing that drop or two will cause
the animal to relax his hold.

tap laid at the door Of his "earth"
even. II he is inside when the trap Is
sst he waits until some other animal
springs It and then energies TO eat the
victim and the bait. Only when driven
BY the terrible pangs Of hunger will he
tempt fate In his own person. Most
animals gorge themselves when they
are fortunate enough to come across a
superabundance Of food. Not 50 with

A NATION IN MOURNING

] Washington, June 24.-Appropriat'
 honors vii be paid to the memory O Iex-President Cleveland by all branche! of the government. Immediately upor
 receipt today of the presidents procla.
 nation formally announcing MT Cleve.
 lands death, steps were taken to car.
 ry out its provisions. All officials oi
 the diplomatic and consular service
 will be notified of the ex-president':
 death and will be directed to fly tht American flags over their respective offices at half staff for thirty days.
 Today all army posts and stations
 all commanders in chief of the fleets of the navy, and captains of detached ships, navy yards and naval stations are ordered to fly the national colors at half staff for the same period of time
 In the army and navy today's orders will be followed by formal orders to- ward directing what shall be done on the day of the funeral, and prescrfb ing the number of guns to be fired, etc. The flags of the executive de- partments today were placed at half obolAy do dioO were luc ndllOudl tIIl- blems on buildings occupied by the district government.
 In Washington where many of those who are now leading officials of the government, came into office during MT. Cleveland's administration and where thousands of residents met him in social functions at the White House the news ofi MT. Clevelands death caused a profound sensation.
 At the White House many officials received the first news through the Associated Press. Many tributes were paid to the memory of the late presi- dent by those who succeeded to the cabinet council in his regime. Among them was Secretary Cortelyou, who was confidential stenographer to the president during the closing days of the last Cleveland administration, and had an intimate association with him.
 Admiral Dewey said: ''In the death of Cleveland the country has lost a citizen whose wisdom, courage and patriotism were of the highest order. The whole country and its interests were the subjects of his unremitting industry and his best efforts. He ig- nored any effect which a strict per- formance of duty might have upon his political fortunes. When during his second administration financial disaster was impending he met the situation with decision and resource, the manner for which history will give full credit. He believed in the useful ness of an efficient navy and deemed of great importanc the character and qualities of naval commanders in whose hands might at any time be placed questions whose decision would involve peace or war"
Arizona republican., 1908-06-25
SPEAKER CANYONS PRAISE.

Danville, Ills, June 24.-Speaker Jos G. Cannon when told of the death oi Grover Cleveland said: T very much regret MT. Cleveland's demise. I was a member of the house of representa- tives during both of his administra- tions. While I was a member of the opposition party and did not agree with his economic policies, both then and now, I recognize the great ability, courage and patriotism he possessed. He will dwell in history as one of the greatest presidents of this country.
 MT. Cleveland did write. His letter is history. In outspoken, burning words he stated his position upon the silver movement. He said then, as he believed since, that free coinage of sil- yer was wrong and dangerous No body has forgotten it."
Arizona republican., 1908-06-25

The question now is, how long are the powers including Uncle Sam, go- ing to stand MT. Castro's bluffing. Yet he has some ground. considering his experience with the asphalt people for complaining about the barbarian com mercial invasion" of his domains. It is hardly probable that in the use of the word barbarian" he was attempt ing a play upon the Barber Asphalt company" MT. Castro was evidently in no mood for jeu de mots, puns or other persiflage.
Arizona republican., 1908-06-25
A FORMER CABINET OFFICER.

Madison, June 24.-Colonel William F. Villas, former United States senator and member of President Cleveland's cabinet, when informed of MT. Cleve- lands death said: Notwithstanding his feeble condition it was generally known that his recent seeming inn provement had dispelled the immi- hence of apprehension and the news of Cleveland's death fell like a stun ming blow. It's unexpected suddenness has deprived me at present of the pow CT to deal with the memories Il awak- ems.
 For myself, I dare attempt but a small expression of the thoughts that arise in me. The passing of time has already done much now and will do more to clear away the clouds of con- temporary differences and leave his lofty character, great powers and em- inent service to his country in the uu- dimmed splendOr under which history will display them"

doctrine to the boundary dispute be- tween Great Britain and Venezuela was a lesson which Europe learned well from MT. Cleveland in a day.
 There will never again be an encroach. ment by old world powers upon the territorial rights of small new world republics.
 One of the most characteristic acts Iof Mir. Cleveland illustrative of both his honesty and his sense of justice was the restoration of the Hawaiian monarchy. It had been overthrown by group of adventurers aided by Amer ican citizens and representatives of revolution was accomplished without the firing of a shot or the drawing of a sword" A new republic was formed with the object of it's early annexation to the United States. a thing greatly to be desired for sentimental, stragetic and- commercial reasons An over lldJOi ity SfcNtA<illd . countrymen favored it Doubtless, as a patriotic American, he too did.
 But as the head of the government he had the governments morality in his keeping It could not afford to recognize one law for the strong and another for the weak if peace and jus tice were to prevail among the pow CTS.
 In the classification of historians MT. Cleveland will probably be given place at the beginning of the era generally described as that of national reform. That will convey no inference that it had been preceded by an epoch of national corruption or wickedness but rather, that it was consequent upon the turmoil of reconstruction and inevitably incident to the broader growth of the nation.
