most confident of having million or

perfect - charmingly cool in the shade,
never oppressive and always invigorating.
Lack of water. the only drawback, is
being cured by carrying water thirty or
forty miles in great aqueducts. This
irrigation work is going on at ire
mendous rate all through the country,
and deserts are blooming like the Garden
of Eden.
Another thing that kept me from
travelling West in the past was the dread
of poor railroad service. That evidently
was even my worst mistake. The rail
road service is not equaled throughout
the whole world The Santa Fe road,
with its Harvey system of dining, equals
the cuisine of the finest hotels. 1t is not

natural resources of the country, and espe-
cially of the West, by giving the Execu-
tive authority TO make Withdrawals of any

more specific legislation, the Western SEN

lost sight of a fundamental principle of

CHAPTER VII.
An Elder Brother,

Grumbach was very fond OF music and
IN America there We're never any bands
except al political meetings or at the
mead OF professions. and that wasn't the
sort of music he preferred. There was
nothing at the opera. so he decided TO
spend the earlier part of the evening in
the public gardens. He was lonely: he
mad always been lonely. Men who carry
depressing secrets generally are He
searched covertly among the many faces
Tor one that was familiar but he saw
none; and he was at once glad, and sorry.
Yes there was one face; the rubicund
countenance of the bandmaster. II was
older. more wrinkled. but it was the
same. How many years had the old fell
low swung the baton? At least thirty
years. In his boyhood days Grumbach
had put that brilliant uniform side by
side with the grand dukes. As il was
impossible for him ever TO become A
duke, his ambition had been to arrive AT
the next gran6est thing-the bandmaster.
As he neared the pavilion he laughed
silently and grimly. To have grown
wealthy as master plumber instead,
So much for ambition,
Subsequently he found himself stand
ing beside a young vintner and his peas
ant sweetheart. Their hands secretly
met and locked behind their backs. Grum-
Dacn sighed. Never would he know
aught of this double love. This Eden
would never have any gate for him to
push aside. He would always go his
way alone.
The girl turned her head. Seeing Gru0-
bach. she loosened the winners hand.
Do not mind me, girl, said Grumbach,
his face broadening.
The girl laughed easily and without
confusion. Her companion, however.

building is on School street northwest be-
tween Park road and Irving street. 1t is

dition of the Johnson School. in the same
neighborhood.
Commissioner Rudolph expressed him.
self as thoroughly pleased with the in
Spection, and mentioned several innova-
tons In school planning and building.
The cloak rooms are heated and venti-
lated, something new in school buildings;
the halls and corridors are laid with
Italian terrazza work instead of wood
A wire glass fireproof partition in the
basement surrounds the heating appara-
tus. This would prevent any smoke from
ascending to the upper floors in case OF
fire. and would prevent fire from spread

The building cost $54. 100. 1t was de-

Voicing the sentiment that the people
of the south honor the memory of Ulys-
SEES s Grant as we'll that of Robert F..
Lee. and declaring that his fondest hope
would be realized if the children of the
crowded places of the city could be trans
planted and allowed to live in the bright
open-air places of his own southland.
Senator Robert Lee Taylor of Tennessee
made address in Calvary Baptist Sun
day school house last night at the TWEEN
ty-irst annual banquet of the Vaughn
class He said that first of all he wanted
his hearers to know that he was every
inch an American that he loved the men,
cries of his country and could not under
stand how any American could be so ig-
norant of the godlike qualities of Lee as
to sneer at his statue. When he spoke Of
the children of Il great city's tenements
he said his heart went out to them, and
he asserted that the man who provides
breathing spaces for them is blessed.
Without specifically mentioning the fact
that ne for Fairgrounds for the chill
dren, the senator declared that if the
children of New York were taken to the
rural parts of Tennessee and other south
ern states his heart would be glad.
"Above All an American"
Il wish to talk a little while about Our
Country said Senator Taylor. Il am
an American above ALL things. l believe
in American ideals and American institu-
tons Whatever may have happened in
the past, every state in this Union is as
much my state as the state Of Tennessee
is my state. And the great deeds of the
great Americans of the past are my
heritage and the heritage of my children
whether in the north or in the south.
II have stood under the dome of the
Capitol with uncovered head in the pres
ence of the statue of Ulysses 3. Grant,
and I admired and loved him for his
genius in war and his generosity in
peace And then | have gone into the
hall of fame and looked upon another
statue standing there. the statue of an
other great American soldier and
wondered how any American, whether In
the Senate or out of it, could be so I'M
generous and so ignorant of those god
like qualities of mind and heart as to
sheer at the statue of Lee.
THE people of the south honor Lincoln
not only for his great intellect, but for
his great humanity. The men who wore
the gray are proud to honor the men who
wore the blue, and met them face to face
