LOOKING AHEAD.

I'm glad I am a spinster,
And with the spinsters stand;
And 1 hope that they will ship US
To that far remote island:
We can poach the eggs of sea birds;
And be clothed In bark and skins,
And there'll be a plenty of thorn trees
To furnish us needles and o.ns.
a.
Oh. what joy to be a spinster
And that barren isle inhabit;
And live on turtle salad
And the flesh of wild jack-rabbit:
For there Wen find the simple life
And like Crusoe I've always longed to be
On q bleak and barren shore.
I'd want to be a spinster-
IL / wasn't one already;
All heart whole and all care free.
With pulse that's firm and steady;
For. oh, 1t will be jolly,
70 belong to that jolly crew .}
That's cast on desert island,
And hope I'll be there too.
Yes. I'm thankful I'm spinster,
And plain of face AMI feature;
So that when the words have come to
OF that Colorado preacher. .4v'.e
l can take my place among thems
And when the sail is set,
I know a heap of women folks
H. That'il wish they were spinsters yet.
v. aa.1..
For when that ship is anchored ace.
On that far remote island,
How gladly We will skip the plank
And explore the shining strand;
And round blazing piles of driftwood,
Away from care ane strife,
Well relate adventures of other days
And enjoy the primitive life.

The battle of Dresden, between Ma
poleon and the allies, opened just ninety
nine year ago--August 26, 1918.
On the 18th of the previous December
Napoleon had arrived In Paris from the
disastrous Russian campaign to find
everything in a state Of chaos, but in a
few months the mighty mind Of the en-
peror brought order out of the chaos and
stood ready to pick up the glove that had
already been thrown down by the allied
sovereigns,
The magic Of his name. aided by the
prowess OF his unconquerable will, had
by the middle of the summer Of 1913
brought together a force of $4,000 men,
and with about half of this foSe Ma
poleon placed himself at Dresden between
the armies OF the opposition.
Converging upon him were three armies
that of Bohemia under schwartzenberg,
that Of silesa under Blucher and that of
the north commanded by the prince royal
of Sweden, the traitor Bernadotte, the
whole aggregating eoO,00o men.
The army Of Schwartzenberg, reinforced
by some $1,000 from Blucher, attacked
Napoleon on the 2eth, and throughout
that day and the day following the battle
ragged with unbroken fury. The $4,000
men fought like demons. but at last the
genius OF Napoleon prevailed and the
Allies were driven back upon Bohemia
In hopeless rout.
It was one Of the emperor's most brill
liant victories, reminding US of Auster-
litz and Marengo, but It's fruits were
lost In what followed.

An Experiment: Watch Il.

Omaha's school system is about to
embark on an experiment in educa-
tional endeayor that will bear watch
ing. 1t is the Commercial" high
school, undertaken in the desire to
give something of vocational train
ing in the public schools of the city.
The scope OF the new school Is linn
tied at present to training for the
work of clerks and accountants. 1t
may be questioned IL this is broad
enough to meet the true conception
OF a vocational school. Perhaps the
work may be extended to meet this
objection.
A more serious objection lodged
against 1t is that the curriculum is
not calculated to provide that view
of the field of knowledge that lies
beyond the elementary training of
the grade schools. Things essential
to well developed mind ought to
be given little part in the work OF
the Commercial" high school. Here
only the concrete facts OF business
training are to be provided. Ac-
countants. stenographers. copyists
and similarly accomplished pupils
will be turned out, but the obvious
danger is they. will be left lacking in
knowledge of things other than those
pertaining to mere business, some
grasp on which Is vitality essential
to success In citizenship.
1t should not be expected that the
boys and girls leaving high school
shall be equipped to the point of
being able to earn the same wages
and compete In business with
men and women who have had years
of experience; but their minds should
be opened up to where they will
have at least comprehending con-
ception of what life holds for the
we'll balanced and properly trained
member of society.

Fast Work.

The urgent need Of second sup
ply main from the Florence pumping
works has been known for years.
The water company six years age
offered to build the main without
delay II the Water board would give
assurance of reimbursement of cost
when the plant should be purchased
by the city.
This offer was renewed periodic
ally, and last winter the water COM
pany offered either to build the main
or let the city build it without wait
Ing for the transfer Of the property,
but got no response.
The chief reason for compromising
questions still at issue with the water
company was to expedite construc-
tion of this main, and the only ex-
cuse offered for the secret water
bond deal was the need of relieving
the city of the danger lying in sin
gle supply main.
Sixty days have passed since the
Water board took possession Of the
water plant, and bids for building
this main have just been opened.
Puzzle: II 1t took nine years to
bring about Immediate" purchase
OF the water works, how long will II
be before water Is turned into the

The Lawyers and the Courts

The American Bar association
does not take kindly to the recall
by popular vote Of judges or OF
judicial decisions The association
is made up of the most eminent and
distinguished praeticing lawyers
throughout the whole country, and
may fairly be taken to voice the sem
timent of the great body OF the legal
profession. 1t is true that judges
are invariably recruited from among
the lawyers. which will probably
elicit the retort that the bar is pre-
JUDGED by self-interest. But in
every piece OF litigation the lawyers
on one side must lose, and none more
than che lawyers appreciate the need
Of safeguarding and strengthening
the independence of the judiciary.
and the danger of destroying the
courts by making the judges play
solely for popular favor.

In consequence, Vandamme lost at
Kuhn all that Napoleon had won at
Dresden. and around the man of des-
tiny the coil began forwlth to tighten,
Men like Ney and Macdonald, who had,
as 1t were, the habit of victory" were
beaten at Katzbach, and Dennewitz, and
the campaign ended with the disastrous
Battle of Nations at Leipsic, which
| left Napoleon, face to face with the sit

| But the glory of Dresden, like the splen-
dor Of the sunset, lasted to the very
end of the drama. History has nothing

Indefensible and Untenable.

The fact that in Pennsylvania
even Boss" Finn sees the necessity
of Withdrawing Roosevelt candidates
for elector from the republican
ticket shows how indefensible and
untenable is the position of those
who would seize the republican label
to use it against the republican
standard bearers. For a candidate
for presidential elector to seek to
run as a republican when he openly
avows his intention, If elected, to
cast his ballot against the republican
nominees for president and vice pres
ident, is so essentially dishonest that
1t cannot be made to square with a
pretense at square dealing. What
ever rights the third party may have,
1t certainly has no right to mas
querade its presidential electors in
the guise of republicans.
