MEN, NOT GUNS, NEED ATTEN' TON.

In New York at the present time, there is a law, known as the Sullivan law. which forbids the possession. to say nothing of the carrying, Of ire arms, without permit. The effective ness of such a law is displayed by the gunplay which existed for a long time previous to the enactment Of the law and still continues to terrorize the metropolis when occasion demands The law resulted in many households being denied weapon of defense even in a community where gangsters and gunmen stand about, ready for hire. It resulted in thousands of dollars worth of firearms being seized and became an invitation to the crooks to carry on their business without fear of as great resistance from cold lead.
 In the very community where this law exists, there is today before the courts 8 murder case, and another to follow, closely connected with it, in which the use of firearms has played vital part. Conditions have grown worse and developed 8 frightful state of affairs as to the recognition of any law or order, Evidence shows that 1t Is the conditions which have been per- mitted to exist there, rather than the firearms, which make it necessary for the court to threaten to fill the trial room with armed deputies, and all ready have armed men accompany the officials to and from the trial. The gangsters continue to exist and violate the law. Crime abounds. with the po- lice in league herewith, and the half has not been told. The firearm law was only weak attempt to better con- ditions. The real root of the trouble the men behind the guns, has failed tq get the right kind of attention.

THE COUNTY HOME.

The annual meeting of the board of management always effectively calls to mind the fact that this county is the possessor of a temporary home for children which is in the hands of most worthy people, both as to ad- visory and active conduct. Such an institution plays an important part in the future welfare of hundreds of chil- dren, who, through misfortune, over which they had no control, placed them in the hands of their friends: and, truly, they are in the hands of their friends, if they did but realize ence of the home officials. There they receive the best influences and are taught the important lessons of con. duct and given the parliamentary edu- cation which will permit them to be- come good citizens. Though deprived of the gentle and lasting influence oi a loving mother, aand a fathers help they receive an attentive care anG early learn to assume the responsibili, ties of the outside world,

Unquestionably one of the greatest contests for the worlds championship In baseball has been fought in the past ten days, and it has shown that he two teams engaged therein were admirably matched. Barring the two days when the games were lost in the first inning. it was a nip and tuck contest throughout. tNever before has . worlds series gone to eight games Hever before was tie played. It has been contest between great teams and great players, six of the eight games being magnificent exhi- bitions of baseball. Each of the great pitchers have had their bad day thought for the entire contest Mathew son pitched the evenest ball.
 The final and decisive game was a sensational contest Every advantage was taken, every player was on his toes, and the crowd, whether it realized 1t or not, probably saw one of the greatest games of baseball ever played It was a contest which taxed every player to his limit and excellent gener- alship from the captains was dis played. The sending in of Hendriek- son to bat for Bedient changed the course of events. Great things were at stake and by following up such ad- vantages Boston won a magnificent victory. It's no disgrace for New York to lose to such worthy opponents but 1t is a great achievement for the Red Sox and a, deserving compliment to the masteriy management of Stahl

MAKING POLITICAL CAPITAL.

It is not strange that the manager of the Roosevelt campaign began at once to make political capital out of the distressing circumstances connect ed with the shooting, though to the. public at large it must seem bit far fetched and entirely out of place in mingling free speech and lunacy in view of the aggressor in the campaign. Again. it was untineiy when all were looking beyond the political side or the affair and joining in sympathetic expressions, forgetting the personal- ties which had been entered into. It is as the New York Tribune says: .
 'Mr. Dixon might better have taken pattern after MT. Roosevelt, who,- him self Q believer in hard hitting and plain speaking, would never have blamed the free speech of opponents in answer to his own for the crazy delusion of a madman having no re- lation whatsoever to the matters now actively discussed. It would be as sensible to blame MT. Dixon if some other nnadman should think it his mis- sion to remove the candidate whom he has charged with having stolen the republican nomination, or the demo- cratic candidate, whom the progress sives denounce as the nominee of the bosses"

The Orchard orioIe.

Dear Uncle Jed: A few weeks ago you talked to us young folks about birds. I am very fond of birds, es- pecially the orchard oriole. My moth CT used to have one when girl. In the evening she would put the cage down. and it would lay out hair as though it was going to weave it.
 The male is chestnut and black; the female dull yellowish and gray; the young male, second year. like female, but with black face and throat
 These orioles are usually found in open country and, as their name sug- gests, have a preference for orchards. They are also found abundantly in shrubbery along streams and road sides
 They feed chiefly upon worms, cat erpillars. beetles and grasshoppers, and are among the most beautiful and ben eficial birds that we have. Song: A rich, loud and rapid war ble, cheery and pleasing, but i'm possi- ble to describe; chattering note Of alarm.
 Nest: A beautiful basket of grasses ] woven into a deeply cupped bali and situated in fork of trees or bushes. Often they are made of green grasses and contain from four to six white eggs, speclded, scrawled and spotted with black and brown Range: United States. east of the plains, breeding from the gulf to Mas sschusetts and Michigan: winters in Central America

 "'Who are you? grumbled the gen. tian.

 So it grows in other countries 2"
 "Yes, in a great many countries. There are several species in England, and a few in Scotland and Ireland. They also grow in China and Japan They are very abundant in the Swiss mountains, and those who have seen 1t say that the beautiful blue color of masses of gentians in full bloom Is a sight which cannot be forgotten. 'Gentians are frequently found on high ground Some species grow in the Himalaya mountains at a height of 16.000 feet,
 "A part of the root of of the gentian is used in medicine. It makes 8 fine tonic, and is good for indigestion. The 1 species most useful in medicine are l found in open, grassy places on the 1 Alps, Apennines and Pyrenees, also on some of the mountains of France and | Germany"

UNCLE JEp's TALK WITH THE
 WIDE AWAKES.

There are great many grown peo- pie who think the frost beautifes the foliage, but those who watch closely find the late season is when the most variegated foliage is to be seen. In old times they did not understand anr- thing about natures paint pot. how the insects mix the colors and how the water and sunshine working together bring them out. Of course, it is the chemical properties of leaves and flowers which determine the color to some extent. The maple leaf is the most beautiful in color and through it's foliage the yellow, red and greens play in wonderful ways. Some flow CTS have no color. The Indian pipe is so pale 1t is called the ghost flower and the flower of the ivy Is so insig- nificant that it attracts no attention. The flower is the seed maker of the tree and plant-the seed could never be produced without them. Flowers are so constructed as to attract the pollen bearing insects, and the insects get the honey and the flowers re- ceiying from them the pollen which determines the shape and color; and while the gardener has learned to pro- duce new flowers in shape and color by keeping the insects off and using camePs hair brush to transfer the pollen, they have not yet been able to excel the work done by the bees and flies and moths and butterflies. When they want the insects to do the work for them, they plant the yellow and red, or white and red, flowers close together and a wonderful mixture of color is the result There are self fertilized flowers like the peas and the corn, and wind-fertilized flowers like the plaintain and d$nde1ien flow CTS; and many flowers that depend on ! insects can still produce a few seeds themselves. The red clover cannot if there are no bees there will be no clover. It would take g. book to tell you of the woners of the leaves and flowers and their allies. the birds and insects. There Is no such thing as independent lfe-iife reigns in three kingdoms-the mineral, vegetable and l animal-and without the two beneath animal life could not be sustained on

Once upon a time rich man died, leaving two children, a girl and a boy, to the care of their uncle.
 Their uncle was a very crHel man, and he wanted the children's money. So he secretly hired two men to take the children into a wood and kill them. Then uncle told his wife that he was going to send them to London to get a good education.
 The children were so happy on the way that if softened the heart of one of the men so that he wanted to spare the children. But the other man did not like the thought of this. for he had been offered a large sum of money if he would Xiii he children. So the robbers had fight and the greedy man was killed.
 The man then took the children aHay and told them to wait and he would bring them some bread. But he never came back. The poor chil- dren finally died of starvation.

ALswis' Companions,

The wind was blowing outside. Lewis was very lonesome sitting in the house by himself every day. He had been sick and was still weak, so that 1t would be many weeks before he could go to school. He could go out side, but what fun Was there outside with no one to play with? He thought for while of what to do. Then he thought of making a kite He said:
 T will make an eagle, for the eagle is the king among birds"
 So he set busily to work and the kite was soon ready to be hoisted Then what fun it was to run around with the kite!
 After a while he looked at the Kite and saw to his amazement that other birds were following it. He excitedls called to his mother to look at hik eagle. She was almost as astonishej as he was, but told him that the birds were attracted by it and flew to 1t. After that he had many happy days playing with the kite, and soon ro. gained his health.

He said to himself: New l shall begin to see the world"
 He felt very proud when he thought of the wonderful things he would tel his brothers
 Piggy walked around the barnyard until he came to a place where he could get into the orchard. He thought this was nice cool place, though hs did not see anything good to eat. He wandered on until he came to tho garden, and at last wriggied his little body under the gate.
