Statue of Liberty Grafters


 If the visitors who paid good money to soldier for the privilege of climbing up the steps of the statue of Liberty had only known about the siXty-second article of war they never would have graduated from the dead head class on reservation belonging to Uncle Sam the New York Herald says. As it is under the last general order from the war de partment two soldiers who levied tribute are doomed to penal servitude for their specula- tive enterprise
 According to the army orders Axel T. Holm, first-class private of G company sig nal corps, and Edward A. Bagnall of the same grade and command, organized a syndi- cate for the exploitation of the French evi- dence of friendship for America, which, fol- lowing the actual language of the order, oper- ated, as to Holm, after this fashion:
 "He the said Holm did desgnedly and fraudulently obtain money from certain wis ltors to the statue of liberty, fees for the prvi lege of going up into said statue, by know ingly making false pretenses that such fees were necessary"
 And as to the enterprising Bagna:
 That he did knowingly assist in fraudu- lently obtaining money from visitors to the statue of Liberty by acting lookout with the duty of actually giving warning to the man collecting the fees in case an officer were approaching"
 All of this, according to the charges and specifications upon which conviction made, and approval then passed violated the sixty second article of war. In the of Holm the department orders his dishonorable discharge

STREET TRAFFIC OF PARIS.

There are nearly half a million horses and motor vehicles of all kinds in Paris tooay with 10000 hand carts and 5000 wheelbarrows. In 1909 65,S7O accidents were caused in the Paris streets by S1 ,S6S vehicles. These statistics are contained in report drawn up by M. Emile Massard at the request of the Paris municipal council on the incumberment of the Paris streets One of M. Massard's calculations shows that the street traffic of Paris if sta tonary, would occupy 445 acres of the 2079 acres of streets which Paris possesses. Last year 600,000,000 persons travelled by omnibuse and tramway, and there were 294 000 000 pas sengers on the underground ralway.-Indian- apolis News.

A tall raw-boned Irish sergeant with the euphonous name of U BaldW1n was 1n command of the squad He began to explain the position of a soldier He found that the recruit on the right of the line already was in the position of a soldier The truth was he couldn't help himself
 OBaldwn eyed him critically Fall out" he said.
 The one-time cadet fell out What regi- ment did ye desart from?" said OBaldwin, pleasantly.
 This is my first enlistment" answered the recruit, and in answering he told the truth, for cadet isn't enlisted.
 What company are ye n?" asked O'Bald- win, though he knew perfectly well, for his own bunk was not three hunks removed from that of the recruit
 ID company" answered the queried one, and that's where he made the mistake of his life.
 That apparently simple answer proved con- clusively to the sergeants mind that he had an eX-regular before him, for all the national guardsmen would have answered Company D' instead of ID company" The regular who would speak of his command as Company D. would be considered deserving of the guard HOu5S lof et ulOHlll, LOT to put the letter alter the company save when it is written is to the army man the height of things unmtary.
 You go to your quarters; we'll look into this," said the sergeant.
 The recruit went to his quarters and half an hour later the first sergeant of the outfit sent for him. The Top" opened the conver- sation cheerfully with query as to what regi- ment the recruit had left in the lurch Find ing that he bound to be considered deserter, the unhappy took the bull by the horns thus q am serving my first enlist ment in the army; I never in the marine corps and I never the inside of na- tional guard armory.'
 Ever been in of them private military schools?" asked the Top
 Never"
 Co to your quarters"
 In another hour the recruit was given a rifle and cartridge box and belt and was dered to turn out with the squad of recruits who had advanced far enough in the school of the soldier to receive lessons in the manual of arms. Now a matter of fact the recruit knew the manual of arms well he couldn't have hidden his knowledge if he had tried This time there was another sergeant in charge. His eye took in the way the recruit on the right handled his piece and executed the manual.
 In less than a minute the sergeant ordered him who showing such proficiency to step to the front, and ordered place rest" for the remainder of the squad Then turning his attention to his victim, he said: Well try the bayonet exercise bit. Guard"
 The recruit came down to "a guard" possi- bly, with much precision and in probably as proper style as the veteran sergeant had ever seen it done.
 Passing yourself off for a recruit. It's a fraud you are. Get to your quarters" And the recruit went to his bunk again, knowing that he was in deep disgrace.
 About half an hour later he heard two old

 That night just after "tattoo,s the first geant appeared and told the recruit that the company commander wanted to see him at once in the orderly room. The recruit went to the presence of the commissioned officer and stood attention as he had stood attention as a cadet a thousand times before The cap tain looked him up and down. T understand" he said, that this is your first enlistment; that you have never been a national guard; that you have never been a marine and that you never attended pfivate military school"
 The recruit acquiesced with a respectful "Yes, sir"

 The recruit made about face, and then at repetition of the command again faced the captain who grnnng

Thinning Fruit.

The question of thinning apples, peaches, pears and other fruit is be- coming of more importance every year. Not only do we get larger and finer fruit, but the curculio is work ing more seriously every year and in thinning fruit where the curculio is present every specimen that shows a sign of the curculio string should be taken away and burned
 The demands of the markets and the conditions of the eastern and southern fruit growers is such that they must thin their fruit if they are to succeed in holding their home mar kets. The demand is for larger and more showy fruit and of better quality, but more particularly of fruit that has fine appearance.

RALLIES OF FARMERS UNION
Open Public Meetings Do Much Good for Members of Organization
 and Those on Outside.

The season for the summer rallies of the Farmers Union has almost reached us. These open public meet ings of the union men have done great good, both to the members of the union and to those on the outside. writes l.. w. Jarman in Southern Gull tivator. We would speak a word in behalf of these educational and social gatherings, that they be not neglected by the farmers this year. By all mes ns every county union should have day of meeting every summer. when every farmer or any of the farmers friends should be invited to meet to- sether and to discuss the vital prob lens relating to the welfare of farms and farmers
 In the past these rallies as they are generally called have done much towards the extension of the unions usefulness. It is here that the world has had the opportunity to come into close contact with the Farmers Union meetings, and learn something of it's methods, it's aims, it's ideals In most cases this association of non- union men with their friends of the union has been conducive of good to both sides, There mutual need the one of the other. is often brought clearly to view in these meetings many good men learn enough of the principles of the union to lead them to unite with the union

These sum- mer gatherings afford an excellent way of bringing together our friends and families. Thus the different parts of county become better acquainted; the influence of which may be far reaching. Adjoining counties are often brought more closely into touch, new friendship made. and old ones re- newed at these meetings. Surely the counties will continue these most en- joyable occasions.
 One suggestion: Ay these meetings let us take care that we have some iSeil oOullu IliSH CO duQIeSS JUe people on topics of importance to the farm. CT. Do not be content with some two by-four scantling that may have been furnished from somewhere, whose sole asset is the fact that he repre- sents the Farmers Union, coupled perhaps with the fact that he knows how to raise certain union men and their work, and shout allegiance to them, instead of to the union. Get the very best timber to be had Good strong men who know things, and are known should be invited to address your meetings, regardless of the fact that they may not be members of the union. Don't hesitate to go down into your pockets to pay the expenses of man of worth and of note to come any reasonable distance to be with you. Call on your agricultural schools and colleges, your experiment stations, or any one you will to fur nish you with the best to be had in the way of encouragement and infor- nation. These rallies, properly used, will yet do a great deal for the union. Don't give them up.

Farm Associations in U. s.

Cooperation is making some head way in this country, but so far, farm CTS have been misled by ignorant and interruptions men who have designed to use the organization for their per sonal profit, or by politicians who ad- vanced their own selfish interest It does not take the American farmer long to see things in the right light, however, and it is only a matter of time when cooperative bodies will be properly conducted and prove of inestimable value to the agricultural communities everywhere

Foreign Farm Cooperation.

The principal of agricultural CO., operation is not understood in this country as it is in England and other European countries. Over there, near ly all marketing is done through or gani.ation, In the great dairy districts farmers have not only organized for the purpose of getting better prices for their products, but also to i'm prove the quality of their milk and butter.
 Associations are formed to embrace districts of medium size and these are officered by men who are practical dairymen, and whose experience and direction insure a uniform and high grade product from all it's members Selling associations are multiplying rapidly everywhere, and nearly every thing now raised on the farm is dis posed of through these cooperative companies The results have been highly satisfactory, not only in better prices, but in social uplift of the farm ing communities.

There is popular tradition that lightning will not kill any one who is asleep. According to one school. the splinters of tree struck by light ming are an infallible specific for the toothache. An amusing superstition used to be cherished by the boys of a Yorkshire (Eng) village, who be- iieved that if they mentioned the light ming immediately after flash the seat of their trousers would be torn out. No boy could be induced to make the experiment.

A few months ago Gen. Hamilton ;. flaw kins died. He entered the military academy some time prior to the opening of the Civil war but the authorities did not allow him to graduate. Hawkins was not discouraged by the failure and as soon as the Civil war broke out he offered his services to his country and was given a commission. He staid in the reg uar army until the time of his death and so strong was his love of the military academy that before his death he asked that he might be buried in the cadet cemetery It was flaw kns' custom each year when he could get away from his command to visit the school where he had spent three years of his boy. hood. He had just as strong a love for the institution as did any graduate in the army.
 Recently there has been a disposition on the part of the graduates of the military acad- emy to give more consideration to the men who spent some time at the school, but who did not graduate. One class organization in cludes in it's membership all the cadets who at any time were members of the class and no distinction is made between graduate and non- graduate. even the offices of the organization being open to men who did not complete the course.
 Other class organizations are said to be preparing to follow the example of that of the members of 1884 and if the custom of taking into full brotherhood the non-graduates be- comes general the belief is that good will come to the academy and the country
