AS far as I know Colonel Uriah

Warming for Parents.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
I wish to call the attention of par
ents to the fact that many children are
In the habit of "%hitching" on the open
cars that are now being used by the
Public Service. l was on an Elizabeth
car last night which started from the
D., L. and w. railroad depot when
three small boys, the oldest of whom
was not over five years old, got hold
Of the run board and chung to the car.
The conductor was on the upper end
collecting fares and did not see the
youngsters catch hold. When he spied
them two of the boys jumped off, one
rolling toward the gutter. The third
lad a so small that he was afraid tc
let go, and the conductor was COM
PEELED to stop the car. 1 am positive
that had any of the children been hurt
the conductor would have been blamed
Now, it is up to the parents to see thai
their children do not do this sort Of
thing. JOHN B.

LONDON's HOMAGE TO ROYALTY.

0To HE popular infatuation with spectacles in which royalty
figures is exhibited in London to the extreme this week.
Queen Victoria's obsequies brought out great crowds and SO
did the coronation of King Edward VII, her son and successor, as
well as his funeral cortege, but the scenes in London this week
break all records. The main thoroughfares where royalty is to pass
are fenced in on either side by wooden stands, the side streets are
barricaded and enormous crowds, such as New York has never
seen, swarm the streets and are held in check with difficulty by
many thousands of policemen and a large military force. Nor has
the elimination of this intense popular interest been reached, for
Thursday is the coronation, and on Friday the grand street pageant
will take place, to witness which millions of dollars have been paid
for windows, roofs and seats on street stands. Hundreds of thou
sands of people in London on Friday will be unable to get within
seeing distance of the street pageant, but they will be abroad, eager
with the excitement of the great event and pushing and hauling
each other in sast crowds. England is called a democracy, but it
is one welded to monarchial traditions and saturated with that
spirit which has provoked the saying that an Englishman dearly
loves a lord"

FIND BIG ARKANSAS DIAMOND.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, June 2o.-The
finding of a 13 karat blue white dia-
mond in the Mauney diamond field in
Pike county yesterday by John Key, a
laborer employed by M. M. Mauney,
and the shipping of the stone to New
York yesterday were the cause Of
much excitement.
The stone Is the largest and is said
to be of the finest quality ever found
on the American continent. Here it Is
said to be worth between $4,000 and
$4,000. An examination of the stone
has been followed by a statement that
the gem Is without a flaw. (

HYMN OF PEACE SUNG
IN EPISCOPAL CHURCHES.

A new hymn of International peac
vas sung on Sunday in many of tn
Protestant Episcopal churches of New
York. 1t is to the tune of America
and is as follows:
Two empires by the sea,
Two nations great and free.
One anthem raise.
One race of ancient fame.
One tongue, n faith, we claim,
Inc God, whose glorious name,
We love and praise.
What deeds our fathers wrought
What battles we have fought,
Let fame record
Now, vengeful passion, cease
Come victories of peace;
Nor hate. Tor pride's caprice,
Unsheath the sword.
Though deep the sea n wide
'Twixt realm and realm, its tide
Binds strand to strand.
So be the gulf between
Gray coasts and islands green,
With bonds of peace serene
And friendship spanned. g
Now, may the God above
Guard the dear lands we love.
Both east and west. y
Let love more fervent glow,
AS peaceful ages go,
And strength yet stronger grow,
Blessing and blest.

PASSAIC JOINS NEWARK.

oTa HE action of the Passaic Common Council authorizing the
ii mayor to sign a contract with the Passaic Valley Sewerage
commission was the only logical step for Passaic to take
and it was entirely in accord with public sentiment in Passaic.
Among the cities embraced in the sewerage district Passaic is third
in population and it's situation is similar to that of Paterson, it's
nearest largest neighbor, though Passaic has received sewage filth
from Paterson without any counter offending. The example set
last night will probably not be lost upon the "Silk City," which
comes dangerously near the appenation of the sewage city, since
it is the source of the pollution of the Passaic river above Newark,
and is far removed from the ocean tide. The councils of the Pat
erson municipality have heretofore been swayed by unreasoning
influence anG caprices that have been hard to understand. But it
is time now for the city to definitely elect what to do. In reason
it can do nothing else than follow PASSAGES example and make a
contract with the sewerage commission without any frivolous reser-
yatons and without any strings.

Lincoln statue Desecrated.

Lincoln Statue D~esecrated.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Although not old and cranky, yet ]
wish to say something which I am
surprised has not been the talk Of
Newark since Decoration Day.
Every time 1 pass the Court House |
am panied to see the statue of Abra-
ham Lincoln being desecrated. There
is always a crowd getting familiar with
the Civil War hero. Some put their
arms on his shoulders; others sit right
next to a President" and the rest joke
yet more shamefully.
I, therefore. suggest that a fence be
put around the statue, SO that New
ark may keep sacred the memory of
the most worthy to be remembered.
Abraham Lincoln.

THE VAST SAVINGS THAT 90 ABROAD.

NV Asst sums are sent by immigrants in this country to Europe
Y for deposit in government banks, because the immigrants
do not understand American banking methods and want a
government guarantee for their savings. Hungary alone during the
last decade received a total of 1922 OBJ ,214 from Hungarian immi
grants for deposit in Hungarian postal banks. Last year the
amount was $~37,617,915. Germany, England, France, Russia and
other countries receive their millions and tens of millions of Amer
lean money every year. This tremendous drain of capital to Europe
is acutey felt in american finance, The drain can be greatly re-
heyed by the institution of postal banks. The fear that these banks
would injure the private banking interests has now been dissipated.
On the other hand, by attracting immigrant deposits and drawing
money out of hiding places, they will eventually add half g billion to
The business capital of the country.

A GREAT Sill YER D d

MI r. AND MRS. TAFT, not forgetting Aunt Della, had the
AVN time of their lives last night. Election night, 1908, was a
great night, it is true, and so was Inauguration day, March
4, 1909, but they didn't amount to much compared with the silver
wedding and it's wondrous pageant of visitors, presents, cablegrams
from royalty and nabobs all over the world, kilograms from every
part of the United States and congratulatory letters galore. AS
to the presents, no newspaper would undertake to enumerate them,
and the ingenuity of the White House mistress will be taxed to
find ways for their disposal, though Aunt Della will doubtless
come in for some of them. And those messages from the royalties.
What a collection for the Taft family album after Taft shall have
retired to the shades of private life! What an album that will be to
show to the 1eighbors and guests! Then, again, MI. and Mrs. Taft
need never in all the rest of their born days buy any presents for
birthdays and weddings and such things. They have got enough
presents to last them a hundred years in the giving if they live that
long, which everybody sincerely hopes they will.

NO COMMISSION FOR BAYONNE.

ID AYONNE rejects commission government. The proposition
Id was fairly and squarely put to the voters and no effort was
spared to get them to favor it. The class of voters that IS
indifferent to the kind of government they are under and the meaner
class that is purchasable were absent from the polls and could well
be spared. 1t may be presumed, therefore, that the percentage
OF the vote represented the intelligent electorate, and out of this
percentage a majority declare that they don't want commission
government and won't have it, Today the people of Trenton are
voting on the same proposition, with apparently about equal
chances either way, and probably a larger percentage of the vote
will be polled than in Bayonne last Tuesday. 1t is deplorable,
though, that the election in Trenton should be dishgured by Incl.
dents such as the determinations between two of the local papers
that are to be aired in the courts.

P..saic Lives Up to 1t. Good Name.

Passaic Lives Up to It's Good Name.
To the Editor of the Evening Star;
That the city of Passaic has decided
to enter the trunk sewer pact by which
it will bear its share of a most i'm
portant improvement, is a bit of news
that should stir the P%atersonian OBJ
structionists to action along the same
line.
1t is to be regretted that Passaic, by
not seeing the light before, encouraged
the Patersonians in the persistant re-
fusal to get into the fold. But 1t is one
of those things to which the trite say
ing, Better late than never" once
more applies. PASSAGES share in the
expenses, about $500, 600, will be a small
bagatelle, compared to the benefit
which will accrue to the city.
BY the way, Passaic had the proud
distinction Of having shown the great
est percentage Of gain in population in
the State. according to Uncle Sans
latest count of noses. It's decision to
grasp the friendly hand of the metrop-
oils of the State in helping to abolish
the pollution of the river bearing its
name. is in line with its progress.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
I would like to write just a few lines
on the condition of our streets. New
ark is noted for her hospitality. but the
pleasure of visiting the city is greatly
lessened by the poor condition of the
pavements on main streets. This is
especially true of Broad, Market and
Washington streets and Roseville ave-
nue., over which much OF the suburban
traffic goes.
Before paying out the city's money
for paving new streets would 1t not be
better to fix up those already paved
and save them from complete ruin?
Already automobllists are beginning
to avoid these streets, and in a short
time many people planning trips will
leave Newark out of their calculations
II the necessary improvements are not
made. B. s.

THE SOLDIER OF THE AIR.

60 HE sentimental plea of a French senator that the government
Ii should not permit any officers to take the risks of aviation
met no sympathetic response in the French Senate. Nor
should it. Army officers are trained for use and not for parade.
One of their uses is preparation for war. The aeroplane is de-
seioping into an important engine of war and it is necessary that
army officers should be instructed in it's use. There are risks in
their training, but there are greater risks in battle, and the man
who wears the uniform of his country is not asking for a kind of
service in which life and limb are safe. But the army officer who
sails the air in a machine knows that he is serving his country as
truly as if he stood in the Imminent deadly breach on the battle
field. And he is.
