LEGEND of St. Patrick.

st. Patrick was a holy man
And minstrel, too, of old
And bore on all his wanderngs
A harp with strings of gold.
When Erin's heroes Y rnt to. war
With sword and lane and shield
In early times they lacked a flag
To follow on the fielG-
So good St. Patrick took the leaves
Upon the willow tree
And stitched the emerald strips to malke
A banner broad and free.
But ere his task was done he heard
The trumpet's wild refrain
And nailed it to his golden harp
And joined the march again.
The banner of the willow leaves
Grew dry and fell to dust:
The strings that rang to battle songs
Were soon devoured by rust.
Eut still on Erin's ancient flag
The willows tint is seen.
And still the legendary harp
Adorns its folds OF green.

Proper Regard for the Police.
OMAHA, Nov 19-To the Editor OF The
Bee: The recent death Of man who was
long known as faithful and efficient
member Of the Omaha police force. and the
beating into insensibHty OF another well
known officer by gang OF toughs. give
rise TO some thoughts and questions touch
ing matters OF great Importance TO the
community.
For long time I have felt that there is
lack Of proper appreciation Of the serv-
ices Of the faithful and efficient officers
VINO endure hardships and encounter great
risks and dangers I'm dealing with the Grim
inal enemies OF society, and q lack of
proper provisions for supporting those Off
GERS who are disabled in the service, and
Tor caring for persons who are dependent
upon an officer who becomes disabled or
loses his life.
There never has been a time when Il was
! more important than now TO have vigorous
I faithful and effective enforcement Of the
laws against crimes and nlisdenleanors.
And il is highly important TO give 10 every
faithful executive, ministerial and judicial
officer the solid and plainly indicated back
Ing Of the public, not only in approval and
sympathy, but also in substantial provision
Tor the welfare OF such officers and their
families.
Although It IL often the case that the
patrolman walking his beat has so little to
DO that he almost feels like a loafer and
useless man, yet there is not a man on the
| Iofce who IL not liable at all times to be
/ called into service that requires extraordi-
nary judgment and courage and presents
| dangers and risks at least as great as those
| encountered by soldiers. Indeed / believe
/ II Is true that in most or all OF the large
cities the personal risks incidental to police
service exceed those Of the average soldier,
and that when the truth is duly recognized
the soldiers Of the city will be pensioned
as literally as any others. No other way
would be in full accord with justice and
good sense.
An exemplary police officer has a COM
! oination OF some OF the best qualities o.
manhood, and should be regarded as one
OF the most honorable and useful citizens
Criminals regard him as an enemy. He
| should be made to feel the hearty support
OF decent people. The efficiency OF tht
police force Is a matter worthy of careful
attention.
II would be we'll for the newspapers t
publish condensed statement of the exist
ing statutory provisions for police pension
and police relief 20 that the people, anC
especially members OF the legislature. ma!
be induced to consider what changes an,
improvements ought to be made.
