NEW YORK, June 2S.-Three young
men and a girl sat on bench in Cen
trial Park playing a game which should
speedily become very popular The
object was TO see how often each man
could kiss the pretty miss. The girl

nurse living In Greenwich, Conn. One
OF the young men was James White.
16 years old, OF No 1910 Lexington
ave.
The bench was Just outside the ten
mis- courts, and Patrolman Warren OF
the arsenal station found the quartet.
One of the men was draped over the
back OF the bench and with the skill
of a contortionist was bending over
smacking the nurse on the lips, cheeks
and neck. To the right of the target
wes another player and on the LEFT
was White.
The volley OF smacks disturbed the
officer. He announced there was too
much competition and that some OF
the players would have to quit One
OF them took Miss Powers face In his
hands, kissed her II or IS times and,
declaring he was satisfied, left. The
man sitting on the Dhck OF the oehCH
then moved around TO the vacant
space and started In. White tried &c

WILL REBUILD AIRSHIP.
Gale Destroys Walter WeIlman's Craft
One Man Killed.

TROMSOE, Norway, June 2S.-Wal-
ter Weilman. the Arctic aeronaut, to-
day began the purchase of material
and the hiring of workmen To be
shipped to Spitbergern to rebuild the
airship shelter there, which was de-
stroyed by gale last Christmas.
Word OF the destruction OF the shelter
house was brought by Wellman's

here yesterday The Arctic also
brought news of the death Of Knud
Johnson. one of the two men left at
the Spitzbergen camp last winter

GRAND OLD MAN
WILLIAM T. STEAD'S OPINION OF
GEN. BOOTH.
A Devoted Man, Who Loves Thieves and
Drunkards with the Love of the
Good Shepherd.

William L. Stead, who was a London
reporter thirty years ago. says that at
that time Gen. Booth of the Salvation
Army was regarded a nuisance and the
Salvationists We're held in contempt Now
a wondrous change has come over the
spirit of of our dream. Since Mr. Glad
stones death Gen. Booth has become the
Grand Old Man par excellence of Great
Britain. No one attacks the Salvation
Army in the streets and very few criti-
CHE them in the press. Mr.. Stead SAYS:
Il saw Gen. Booth for an hour lust
before his departure for a tour in Scan
dinavia, which is to lead up to his first
visit to Russia. He is now 50 years
of age. He has made good recovery
from an operation for cataract on one
eye. but the other is going blind. He is
frail, but his spirit is undated. He is
welcomed everywhere, and by no one so
heartily as by the sovereigns and states
men of Europe. When | saw him he
had just had an hour and a half's init
mate conversation with the Prince and
Princess of Wales He was in a day
or two to be received as an honored
guest by the King of Denmark After
seeing the Kings of Norway and Sweden
he will. | hope, be received by the Car
at st. Petersburg.
Yet all these crowding honors from
the great of this world have left the
generals head unturned for his heart

1t transpires that the 100000 acres
of former Indian lands in Wyoming
which are to be thrown open for settle
ment are arid lands that are beyond
hope CT irrigation. The distribution of
these lands is therefore an invitation to
home-seekers to experiment in dry farm
ing. This fact may initiate against rap
id settlement, but inasmuch as some
settlers in arid districts have achieved
wonderful success in dry farming. n
venture onto the Wyoming lands by men
who have grit and determination might
result in riches where things are now
nnpromsing. And if there are numerous
demonstrations of the fertility of the
soil under the peculiar cultivation re-
auired by dry farming, the Wyoming
lands will rise in value very quickly and
thus additionally reward the courageous
home-seeker who tries his luck in the
new field.

lision on the route from Boston to New

Band of fifty-two,
Joining hands about the year.
What a merry crew!
How they make the hours dance!
How they shout with gleei
Yes, the happy Saturday
Is the day for me.
Sing song of Saturdays;
Pearls upon a chain
Hung about the New Years neck
When she comes back again.
All among the other beads,
Pink and blue and gray,
How we love the golden CLEAN
OF a Saturday.
Sing a song of Saturdays;
Roses In a wreath.
Fifty-two so big and bright
Who would look beneath?
Other days may be as green
Other blooms as fair,
Yet a single Saturday
We could never spare.
Sing a song of Saturdays;
Rests along a road.
Here we halt to take breath,
Ease the weary load.
Ho! Another milestone passed,
Towards the goal we seek;
Then refreshed we travel on
For another week.

The decision of the United States court
of appeals at Philadelphia which gives
railroad company a verdict against an
automobilist whose vehicle was involved
in a collision at crossing puts upon
chauffeurs responsibilities commensurate
with the character of the vehicles under
their charge; and it should insure for
pedestrians on public thoroughfares the
same measures of safety that are indi-
Gated for the prevention of collisions
with moving trains. In other words, the
automobiist should look out" instead
of leaving that to the other fellow after
easing his sense of responsibility by loot
