An Army ssHall of Fame"

The recent naming of the ten new
torpedo boat destroyers after naval
officers to commemorate noted deeds in
American history leads the New York
World to suggest that a few names
might well be borrowed from the army
roll Of honor for the same purpose.
The names added to the naval "hall of
fame" by the last order of the presi-
dent include those of three rear ad-
mirals, three captains, three command
ers and one midshipman. AS 1t stands

low. Our naval traditions are against
the commemoration of civilians by
naming warships after them.
With the army the case is somewhat
peculiar, for, while it has long been the
custom to name forts and batteries
after distinguished soldiers. civilians
are also honored in that way, and,
again, names are conferred upon forts
because Of their local geographical sig
nificance. A warship is a unit and
may carry the name it bears to any
part of the world. The parallel of the
warship in the army is the regiment.
It is unit and in a regular army
gathers in the course of time traditions
which are inspiring to the men. Names
that can never die out of our military
traditions might be conferred upon reg
iments. In the volunteer service It is
a common thing for regiment to
have a synonym, sometimes by formal
adoption and again through the evolu.
ton of name given by chance, even O
nickname
As the army is composed Of three
arms Of service, there is opportunity
to confer in each branch names that
have a special significance. The forts
could be given names of soldiers dis
tinguished in the defense Of fortified
positions, batteries the names Of heroes
Of The artillery arm, cavalry regiments
might commemorate soldiers distin.

regiments the heroes of brilliant
achievements In the field, where .the

might be conferred by charter. and
in time they would be priced BY the

leon bestowed upon his battalions as
awards for conspicuous deeds of yalor.

SEES DOWNFALL OF THE BELL.
Metal Tubes Will Supersede 1t, Ac-
cording to Clergyman

1T will not be many years, says a
st. Louis clergyman, before bells for
church use will be almost unknown
Even now, when a church desires
something to answer the purpose of
the bell the trustees do not buy bells,
but tubes, some made of bell metal,
other of composite of several metals.
The metal tubes are hung in steeples
and struck with a hammer They
give a clear, full note. just like a bell,
only more resonant. They never crack
with cold or heat, and what is a still
greater recommendation. never get
out of tone. There is a chime in the
city with one or two bells so horribly
out of tune that they set people 9
teeth on edge Such discord in a
chime of metal tubes would be un-
known, and besides. the tone is so
much more agreeable than that of the
bell that any one who ever hears the
two can not fail to prefer the tube

that when one of these chimes is
played the impression is that Of a

Essentials Of a Great Man.

You can not substitute any epithet
for great. when you are talking Of
great men. Greatness is not general
deXterity carried to any extent; nor
proficiency in any one subject of hu
man endeavor. There are great as
tronomers, great scholars, great paint
ers, even great poets, who are very
far from great men. Greatness can
do without success, and with it. vii
liam is greater in his retreats than
Marlborough in his victories On the
other hand, the uniformity of Caesars
success does not dull his greatness
Greatness is not in the circumstances,
but in the man.-Arthur Helps.

NJ. F. YORE A SUICIDE
Former South Chicagoan
Shoots Himself Through
Temple While Insane.

Michael f. Yore of the Lawndale sta
ton, committed suicide in a barn in
the rear of his home, 636 Sawyer ave
nue.. yesterday by shooting himself in
the right temple with a revolver. A
coroner's jury returned a verdict that
Yore committed suicide while temper
arily insane.
Yore is quite well known in South
Chicago, having once Travelled out of
the sixteenth precinct. Later he was
transferred to the Lawndale station
where he has been ever since. Den
mis- OK eefe, one of the old time cops
at the South Chicago station who was
transferred to the Lawndale station a
few months ago, was rooming next
door to Yore and was one of the first
to be on the scene.
