CHICAGO, July 29.-Stricter regula-
ton of street speaking is being con-
sidered by the police today as Sc
quel to an attack on Policeman Mich
ael Claary last night by crowd of
5000 persons melted to the disturb
ance by a street orator.
Cleary was set upon as he came
out of saloon on Congress street by
Tony Mastrando, whom he had arrest
ed for disorderly conduct. The speak
'er, said to be a Socialist, had just
completed an attack on the police.
Some of the men in the crowd saw
the officer coming with his prisoner
Free him!" they shouted. The
men in the crowd made rush at the
policeman. James Armstrong, a ne
gro, came to Clearys assistance. To-
gether they fought their way down
State street toward Harrison. The
crowd increased until fully 5000 were
in the attacking party. Fourteen of
these were felled to the sidewalk by
the negro before he himself, was

The speaker who instigated the at
tack was knocked from a step-ladder
on WHICH he had been standing when
the rush started. He took the ladder
and disappeared.

effect that the men came to this city
in the morning and visited several sa-
looms. At l o'clock in the afternoon
an argument started. He said he
tried to stop it and was successful
when Park Policeman Tinapple came
up and ordered the men to stop quar-
reling. Hollarn then appeared, and a
fight started O'Dell admitted hitting
Hollarn, but said that another of the
crowd hit HolIarn in the back of the
head while the fight was on. He ad'

THE. SAFER WAY.

There is an element in humanity
that is difficult to account for. A
driver of an automobile will rush his
machine through town at speed
that he knows is endangering the
lives of the other persons in the ear
same element is seen in ra;lrOading
in ocean navigation and in attempts
to outdo all competitors i'm eXhib-
tions of dare-deviltry with flying
machines.
In the greater number of cases
where unreasonable recklessness
leads to appalling loss of property
and life. the danger element in such
cases is we'll known to the public.
The public usually gets what it de-
mandS. If it demands unreasonable
speed in transportation ii will get it.
In the same proportion it will get
increased danger at the same time.
Then sooner or later there will be a
horrible disaster to recount. For a
time after one of these disasters the
public is extremely cautious and
critical of what would seem to lead
to results of the same kind If the
public would only maintain this crit
ical attitude and never grow lax
there would be fewer disasters to re-
count.

be given. the best five poems were
sent to William Vincent Byars of

and friend of DIR. f. A. Allen. The
prize was given to the one he
thought best.
In 1905 the prize was awarded to
Miss Lula Belle Woodbridge of Boon

ant in English and also taking spec

Science. Her poem In a Forest"
was long and dramatic in character.

we are not claiming that voting out
the saloons paved the streets or built
the light plant. We just want to
point out the fact that they didn't
come from saloon revenue.
More good business buildings have
gone up within the past four years
than in any other fOur-year period
in the history Of the town. Columbia
was never more prosperous than
now, never stood higher in the es-

the saloons; It began to grow and

The poet slept,
And DER his quiet bed
The fairies crept.
And round about his head
They took their place.
And at their coming fled
Want from his face.
They smOOthed his hair,
And on it placed a crown,
And he lay there.
Clothed in his tattered gown.
Surprising fair;
And vanished was his care.
They bent DER him,
And whispered in his ear;
In darkness dim
They whispered words of cheer
He lay asleep,
But smiled such words to hear
In slumber deep.
They hummed a song
Which mOrtals may not know:
They hummed it long.
And it was soft and low;
Then they did cease.
And as they rose to go,
He lay in peace.
He woke at day:
A sense that all was wrong
Came back at day.
His fight was hard and long
Till he was dead.
He dreamed that life was song.
But found it. Bread,

Harris Merton Lyon was a close
second to Mr.. Paterson. His best
poem was Spring Nights
The red day sinks through violet
mists of dusk
into the unstirred, heavy blue OF
night: and winds
That seem to be the breathing OF the
earth
Send sibilations through the poring
trees,
Swelling and dying soft. Then, in a
pause,
A melody alert and clinging clears
the air,
Fluttering OH the wings OF some
bird trebled song.
Now is the browsing time of all the
bees
That, stepped in drunken riot, slum-
ber dull
In blossoms chalices: now day-fOlk
While owls and frogs and beetles
whirr and crOak
To herald up the dark. Now fades
and pales

O'ercast with neutral night. Sleep
