New York City, July 6.--The devel-
opment of the charge made by Judge
Gaynor led to the forcing out of office
of Police Commissioner General Bing-
ham The trouble arose over the leav-
ing of George B. Duny's photograph
in the rogue's gallery when 1t should
have been removed. Duffy's parents
took the matter up with Judge Gaynor
and he in turn with the mayor The
result of the investigation which fol-
lowed was that the mayor demanded
the official dismissal of Deputy Com
missioner Hanson and Daniel Slattery.
secretary of the department. AS these
two officials are chief aides to the com
missioner and have done his bidding il
was regarded at the city hall and at
police headquarters c" obvious that the
only course left open to General Bing-
ham was to offer his resignation.

Although the casualties from the

fortunate, there were fatalities right

Can't See the Gun.

]. Ackerman can't see where the fun
comes in, in exploding fire crackers in
a mans place of business. In fact,
his mind runs distinctigely the other
direction and if it were left to him
there would probably be few of the
noise producers sold in the city of
Fargo. When passing his store on
N. p. avenue. some one threw giant
cracker in the door and the noise that
followed made some of the customers
think that Russian bomb throwers
were in the city. Ac.Scrman got his
man and sent for the police, but in
some manner he got away. The irate
merchant is now endeavoring to secure
warrant for the arrest of the alleged
culprit.

Mr.. Burroughs and his party visited
the extinct volcano of Haleakala, on
the island of Maui, the crater of which
is twenty miles in circumference and
is the largest of the extinct type in
the world. The aged naturalist rolled
himself up in blankets and slept on
the ground in the shelter of rough
stone hut, in order to view the glori-
GUS sunrise from this lofty height of
eleven thousand feet. Later he left
the island of Oahu and proceeded to
the island of Hawaii. There he vis-
tied the famous active volcano of Kill

with it's wonders. This was the first
active volcano he had ever seen.

JOHN BURROUGHS ABOUT TO END
ROCKY MOUNTAIN JAuNT
FOLLOWING HAWAIIAN
TRIP.

New York, July 6.-After an extend
ed sojourn in the Hawaiian Islands.
where he had many interesting ex-
periences. John Burroughs. the noted
writer and naturalist, is expected to
terminate subsequent jaunt with
friends in the country west OF the
Rockies and return to his nome on the
Hudson, Riverby, near West Park, N.
Y. The veteran nature lover is now
exchanging "reminiscences with his
twin brother naturalist, John Muir,
of California, who was prevented ac-
companying Mr.. Burroughs on the
Hawaiian trip by the illness of a
daughter. Mr.. Muir announces 1lim-
self as "71 years young, while his
brother pioneer of the woods exceeds
that by one year.
Energetic as Roosevelt.
During his sojourn in the Pacific
islands Mr.. Burroughs entered into the
life OF the country with as much en-
ergy as his intimate friend, Theodore
Roosevelt, might have displayed He
ate the poi of the Hawaiians, rode the
surf in native surf boats, tried the
surf board, which Jack London found
so conducive to purple bruises and
stiffened joints, swan the tropical blue
waters at Waikiki and climbed Tanta-
lus with all the agility OF. a youth. To
his friends 1t seemed that he put his
/ 72 years of life and experience be-
hind him, and became ts young in
body as he always is younthful in
spirit in the genial air of the sun
shine islands"
"It was the most wonderful and in
teresting trip ever experienced" said
the naturalist, who arrived at San
Francisco on the steamship Manchuria
about two weeks ago, "and was very
sorry to leave the beautiful Hawaiian
country. The visit has been revela-
tion to me. What impressed me most
Well, to be honest, / must say tnat I
think it was the people and their hos
| pitality, though nature was more than
generous with her kind entertain
ment."

Knows Everybody and Every
thing that One Needs to Know
About Upper House.

" HE most important man in either
the Senate or the House Is the
man who counts the votes. The
votes themselves don't amount to much.
Anyone can go up and see them marked
on a check list if he wants to. but the
real work is knowing where every one
Is and whether IT is really there or not.
If a secretary to the Senate were to
confine himself to merely putting down
t~wenty-one figures on a piece OF paper
when a bill went on its passage he'd
have about the easiest job thai he could
find without neglecting something to
go and look for it. But that's the least
Of his troubles. He must be a general
information bureau for all the members,
and anyone else.
He must know, and generally does,
within a very short guess, what has
happened to all measures that have
come under his observation and some of
those that haven't. He must have
strong lungs and patience beyond that
of ordinary human beings with senators
who never hear when their names are
called or what bill is being discussed.
or are uncertain as to how they are re-
corded and want to find out.
Those are the duties, or some CT
them, of Howard l.. Tyler, who is serv-
ing in the capacity of secretary to the
Senate. He's been there so long that
/ he's getting used to senatorial quirks.
He holds the record for the position,
for this is his fifth year calling off
names, calling "Mr. So-and-So, chair
man of the committee on such-and-
such, reports Senate bill No. --' and
so forth. It's a treat to see him, If he
happens to be at the other end of the
chamber when the question is put, star
calling the names of the members In
their order as he walks toward tho
desk, and then get all the votes on the
slip right by the time he gets to the
end of the list. Still. as has been said
he has been secretary for five year
now and had three years apprentice
