Protect Their Nerves

Since the day the aquarium was
opened it has been necessary 10 guard
the fishes there against being fright
ened by thoughtless or careless visit
ors. People walking along the tanks
might rap on the glass with news
paper to start up fish that was ly-
ing motionless, or woman might
touch the glass with fan to point
out some beautiful fish that had a

motion would be likely to scare the
fishes nightly, for in the depths
whence they came, while they may be
pursued by enemies of their own kind
they don't see strange giant figures
appearing in the water and seeming
10 strike at them.
Thus scared in tank fish might
race about and dash is head against a
wall and do itself an injury that
might result in death.
Within recent years there has been
less frightening of the fishes, many
visitors come more than once, and
among these there are many who
know the danger and who tell their
friends, so that there is leess tap
ping. on the glasses now than there
was when the aquarium was new and
people did not know. But it is neces-
sary to keep a lookout; and one day
asst week this danger sprang up from
an unexpected quarter.
A vender of toy balloons crossing
Battery Park and observing the many
people going to see the fishes though
that this would be good place t.

On this occasion it was noted tina
a number of fishes in tanks here an

A MONUMENTAL CRIME.

The confession of the Mcnamara
brothers, of their guilt as charged,
of dynamiting the Los Angeles Times
building, in which twenty one people
were killed, and the Llewelyn Iron
Works, was q great surprise to the
country, and shock to the Labor
Unions and Socialist organizations.
Many people believed them guilty,
but had no thought but that they
would fight it out. The Labor Unions
raised hundreds of thousands of dol
lars for their defence, and were stand
ing by faithfully. The confessions
knocked the breath out of the Unions
and many of them are now claiming
that the McNamaras imposed upon the
organizations, and are demanding that
they be hung.
The Labor organizations should clear
their skirts of any knowledge of or
connection with this monumental
crime, or else their epitaph is written
now
1t is supposed that the McNarmaras
were promised clemency and leniency
if they would confess, but if any crmi-
inal should be hung it is the man who
deliberately sneaks around and blows

Peace Jubilee.

The Gate City Guard. composed of
the prominent young men of Atlanta,
was the first military organization in
Governor for volunteers for the Con-
federate Cause in 1861. After the
Civil War, when the South was
emerging from the gloomy days of
reconstruction, the company, inspired
by the same spirit of patriotism that
carried them into an armed conflict
which ranks among the greatest in
history, accepting in good faith the
swords decision, determined to visit
their former adversaries in the North
ern and Eastern cities and offer them
the hand of national fellowship for
the reunion of the States and a pros
porous future for our country.
This determination met with much
opposition from friends and public
men in Atlanta ON the ground that
sufficient time had not elapsed from
the close of the conflict and the mo-
tives of he company would be misun-
derstood, which would result in fail
ure of the undertaking and humilia-
tion of the members.
But these predictions were not real
lied. The proposed Emission of peace
of the company soon spread through
out the country in the public press,
and in every city visited by them
they were most enthusiastically well
coined by the military, Grand Army
posts, State and city officials and the
people, which was followed by par
AIDES, banquets and public and private
receptions, developing int oan ovation
that continued for nearly three weeks
when the company returned to Allan
Ia and received from the citizens a
most generous welcome home.
A generation has passed since that
memorable mission of peace, and in
the many cities visited the memories
of it are still fresh with those who
took part in the patriotic endorse.
ment given to the Guard. But these
memories will not be permitted to die
with the participants. A striking ant
appropriate monument has been erect
ed in the main G, trance of Piedmont
Park in Atlanta, to tell the story t
: future generations of how the peopl,
of the North and the South, holding
sacred the melancholy memories o
l the past, reunited for greater ant

JAMES w. MARSHALL

Virginian and man widely known
and greatly admired. He was former
ly member of the Senate of Virgil
MIA and subsequently was elected to
congress, but served one term. being
declared defeated for denomination.
We use the word declared for the
reason that it was more or less wide
ly believed at the time that he was
properly entitled to the nomination.
But he was man, and did OF pout or
sulk and cry fraud and rend his partv
at critical period in its history. In
stead he accepted the verdict of the
convention and we have never heard
of his whimpering or whining about
1T from that day to this, and that was
twenty years ago. He served one or
more terms as county judge of Craig
and ten years ago was member of
the state constitutional convention.
Judge Marshall was unique oh ar
acter in our public life, but withal a
'ovable man of sterling qualities. AS
public speaker he had a rugged
natural eloquence and vigor in
rough and tumble debate that won for
him the sobriquent "Cyclone jim"
We recall him twenty years ago when
he and Judge Waller r. Staples were
regarded as two of the most formi-
dable Virginian democratic speakers
on the stump. They met the flower of |
the republican campaigners and assai-
led the opposing party and its policies

an wonderful powers of invectiye.
