The patrolman had Just managed to
stop runaway team when, glancing
around, he saw boy hanging to the
other bride. "1'll hold the horse, sir,
until the owner comes up" said the
boy, and he did.
The same boy few days later hap
pened to hear water running inside
house and. finding It impossible to
arouse any one, took long, cold walk
to the city hall and notified the water

Good Work.

The work done by the city
council on Sheridan street was
we'll done. We refer to the
graveling of that street from
Military street west to the rail-
road. By the way, that is the
way to fix a street, where it is
not practicable to pave. Grad
ing up a dirt street is work
wasted unless it is going to be
graveled as soon as it is graded.
If the work that has been done
on the streets of this city had
been followed up with gravel the
streets would be in good shape
for years to come. There has
been seven or nine dollars wasted
on the streets in years gone by
in merely grading them up and
not putting gravel on.
Hats off to the council for the
good work done.

of the matter is that Stubbs is

The Right Thing.

Several weeks ago the News
suggested the injustice perpe-
trated on the business men by
compelling them to pay an oc-
cupation tax, and at the same
time not giving them anything
in return for the money so paid.
We said the merchant paid his
occupation tax, a donation for
street sprinkliug, band concerts,
etc. We suggested that if he
paid an occupation tax that he
should at least be furnished a
night watch, or the city should
do the street sprinkling, or do
something as an evidence of good
faith.
The city council did the right
thing at its meeting on Tuesday
night of last week by employing
a night watch, his pay to come
out of the city treasury. This
is as it should be, and shows that
the council is willing to do the
fair thing.
Chas. Cravens is in the employ
of the city at a salary of $40 per

THE POLICE PARADE.

Grumble as folks may at the police on
all other days Of the year, often with
good reason, often without the day Of
their parade finds New York ever ready
TO turn out in honor Of "the finest and
TO remember only their services and
merit. They are human-very human.
They are not trained logicians they are
not experts at law. They rarely have
time for reflection. Nearly always they
are called upon to decide quickly, TO act
on the spur Of the moment, often nova
days, so it is said, in doubt as to the
and they generally do
their best. OF two things New York
convinced from year TO year
of their unfiinching courage when duty
calls them into danger and Of their
ready sympathy with the suffering Of
which they see so much in this mighty
city.
The New York police force is largely
the product Of its environment, of local
but also Of American condi-
tons at large. American discipline diff
fers from European discipline In the po-
liccman's strenuous walk of life as much
as in all Others Where Europe would
cal! out the military, here the policeman
must stand alone. unsupported, and in
such emergencies he never fails us. He
is trained for them, and II the training
sometimes crops up where 1t is out OF
place. that is not altogether incompre-
hensible shortcoming Of his qualities.
But If the force IS in part the product Of
one side Of the city's life, it Is also In
part, and we hope increasingly. what the
best element in that life would have it..
We are making progress, even II slow
". We place ever higher our demands
on public service, from top to bottom.
The response is sure to come. Mean
while. the force has marched once more,
q brave show Of stalwart men, nodding.
spirited horses and martial music. 1t
was fine day for one Of New York's
favorite annual sights.

LYON AND CAMP JACKSON.

st. Louis celebrated last Wednesday
the fiftieth anniversary of the capture OF
Camp Jackson by Union forces under
the command Of General Nathaniel
Lyon. The importance Of that capture,
which helped greatly 10 hold Missouri in
the Union and to limit Confederate MILL
tary activities within the state, was
heightened by the fact that it was the
first aggressive blow struck for the fed
eral cause in the trying days following
the surrender OF Fort Sumter. The Mis-
souri, convention Of March, 1861, had
voted almost unanimously against seces-
sion. But the Governor, Claiborne Jack
son. was secessionist, who was plan
ming to take the state out of the Union
by force. He had some state troops mus
tered in and stationed them at Camp
Jackson. In the outskirts of st. Louis,
intending to use them to OveraWe Union
sentiment in that city But Lyon. assist
ed by Francis p. Blair jr.. assembled
some regulars and volunteers, surprised
the camp and compelled the surrender
of It's garrison. No lives were lost In the
execution OF the plan. but there was
bloOdshed subsequently when st. Louis
mob attacked some of Lyons soldiers.
The loss Of his militia compelled Gov
ernor Jackson to abandon Jefferson City
and fee southwark. Lyon occupied the
state capital and drove the secessiOnist
forces to the Arkansas border. where he
lost his life on August 10 in the des-
perate battle of Wilson's Creek. Lyons
death so early I'm the war was serious
loss 10 the North. He was n soldier Of
the type of StOnewall Jackson. quick in
action, without fear and with n deep
seated belief in the righteousness of his
cause which made him defy odds and
laugh at dangers. He always struck
without hesitation and was equal to any
emergency. He would probably have
gone far in a war in which so many of
the generals on both sides mistruSted
themselves or their troops and fought
without Zest or energy. The war would
not have cost so much or lasted so long
II there had been exhibited on the North
ern side more Of the decision and vigor
which nipped rebellion in the bud I'm Mis-
souri, by the capture of Camp Jackson.
