AUTO POLO.

To the lay mind. the very mention
of auto polo, undoubtedly suggests an
extremely dangerous and daredevil
sport. The ordinary automobile &C
cident usually has a gruesome finish,
and where some one Of the riders in
the machine hat takes a spill. Is not
killed outright, there is usually a seri-
Dus injury.
1t is said that those who are familiar
with auto polo, however, that there Is
not nearly the danger hat might be
expected, and in fact that in the hands
of a competent man, an automobile
becomes as tame and easy to handle
g a bicycle. The machines are
% Nped to the mere running ear and
l. but light cars are used, and
they IRE so protected that they may
be rammed together, turned complete
ly over and in other ways abused
and yet not. a single bolt 1oosened.
1t is said that the number of things
that can be done with an ordinary
automobile, and the traffic strains that
1t will stand, are simply marvellous,
and a valuable lesson in the ingenuity
of man. Auto polo experts say that
the game is not as dangerous as pony
polo, the. players being nearer the
ground and the machines being just
as easy to handle as ponies.

~TRAVEsTIES ON JUSTICE.

Two sentences imposed recently on
the same day by a judge in New York
are we'll calculated to add force to the
demand for some means of expedi-
tioUsly retiring incompetent or wilfully
offending members of the judiciary. In
the first of the cases we are consider
ing a man who stole a typewriter was
fined $500 and sentenced to one year
in the penitentiary. No fault can be
found with that, of course; but
hearken:
A nan charged with the shocking
crime of contributing to the moral de-
~linquency of little girls-children not
yet in their teens-pleaded guilty and
was sent to the penitentiary for six
months.
1t is impossible to understand he
workings Of a mind which could bring
itself to the conclusions here men
toned. 1t will not avail to say that
the scoundrel who pleaded guilty saved
the community the cost of a trial, for
dollars and cents do not u any figure
in so bestial an affair as this. The
morals of children are beyond price,
and those who pervert them deserve
the limit of the law in every case.
There can be, no mitigating circum-
stances in such matters; the crime is
of necessity a deliberate one; and
many communities would not wait for
the offender to be brought to trial in
the regular and orderly way.
We hear much from the legal pro-
fession in opposition to the recall of
judges. yet it is the fault Of the judi
ciary more often than not that i'm
petus is given to such a movement;
and it is instances such as these in
New York which are Fastening the
day when a seat on the bench will
carry with it the label: During good
behavior only"

Animals and Nj usic,

Tit-Bits: A unique musical expert
ment has been conducted recently in
France. 1t was resolved to institute
concerts for animals for the purpose
Of observing the effects of music upon
them. The results of the observations
made established in fact that discon-
nected tones on string instruments
created no effect upon horses beyond
causing, some of the animals to mani
fest signs of impotence, but when q
melody was played the horses turned
towards the players, pricked up their
ears, and showed plainly the pleasure
they experienced.
An orchestral concert was given be-
fore the elephants in LIE Jardin des
Plantes. The animals became excited
and impatient when passionate music
was played. but calm when a sustained
melodious and flowing style was
adopted.
Dogs were found to be partial to
the various instruments according to
breed, but the dog that will show eff
lection or even respect for the bag
pipes is not yet born. Dogs have
marked musical likes and dislikes.,
Some have a liking for, others aversion
to, the piano, violin and flute, but all
became enraged when tunes were
pldSed DIT d very rapld rate. 1t was
also found that dogs had frequently
their favorite composers, and would
prefer Handel to Beethoven, Mozart
to Mendelssohn, Brahms to Schumann,
Moscheles to Chopin, but none was
discovered to show an appreciation for
Wagner.
The late Rev. r. Eastcote of Exeter
once told the story of five choristers
who, one Sunday evening, were walk
ing along the banks Of the Mersey in
Cheshire. After a time they sat down
On the grass and began to sing an
anthem. A hare passing with great
swiftness toward the place where they
were sitting stopped at about twenty
yards distance from them. She APP
peared to be highly delighted with the
music, n as soon as the singing
ceased, returned slowly to the wood
When she had nearly reached the end
OF the field the choristers began to sine
again. The hare stopped, turned
around and came swiftly to the same
place, and remained listening in seem
ing rapture n delight until the sing
ing ceased, when she returned to the
wood.

Unwarranted Zeal.

1t has been, more or less a p
to the public, and not altogether an
agreeable one to this section, to learn
that Notwithstanding the efforts now
in progress to put the New Haven ana
its tributaries upon a proper pasls
with respect to the law and legitimate
railroad business, the national depart
ment of justice proposes to push the
suit against that corporation that has
been pending.
The new head of the transportation
interests in New England has pledged
his word that the laws shall be obeyed'
That word has hitherto commanded re-
sspect and confidence in all his business
dealings, and there is nc reason TO
suppose that it is not genuine and
sincere as it has been in all his pre-
vious relations.
If that is so, her the new organlza-
ton will voluntarily reach results as
satisfying to the ends of justice as
though the government should win its
suit and go through the form of apply
ing compulsion. To insist upon such q
proceeding would look too much like
fear that the game would get away
| before the net could be- drawn.

THE HOUR.

There's something in the parting hour
Will chill the warmest heart
Yet kindred, comrades, lovers, friends,
Are fated all to part;
But this I've seen-and many a pang
Has pressed it on my mind
The one who goes is happier go.
Than those he leaves behind.
No matter what the journey be,
Adventurous, dangerous, far,
To the wild deep or bleak frontier,
To solitude or war
Still something cheers the heart that
dares
In all Of human kind.
And they that go are happier
Than those they leave behind.
The bride goes to the b~ridegroom's
home
With doubtings n with tears;
But does not hope her rainbow spread
Across her cloudy fears?
Alas. the mother who remains,
What comfort can she find 49,.
But this-the gone is happier
Than one she leaves behind?
Have you a friend-a comrade dear,
An old n valued friend?
BE sure your term Of sweet c~oncourse
At length will have an end
And when you part-as part you will
Oh, take 1t not unkind.
If he who goes is happier
Than you he leaves behind.
God wills it so-and so it is
The pilgrims on their way,
Though weak and worn, more cheerful
Than all the rest who stay.
And when at last, poor man, subdued.
Lies down to death resigned.
May not he still be happier far
Than those he leaves behind?

:. Eaten Your Farm.

Farm and Ffreside: A tendency ex-
lists among many farmers to burn UP
co~rnstalks, loose straw, clover chaff
and superfuous roughage about the
place. But 1t is too expensive.
Every time an acre of stalks is
burned ~twenty-one pounds of nitrogen
goes into the air and will cost you $3.50
to buy back again. Wheat or oat
straw from an acre contains about
twelve to fourteen pounds Of nitro
gen, and clover chaff three times this
amount.
One can easily figure from these
deductions what a reckless loss to the
farm is a fire in the chaff pile or stalk
field. The cutaway and disc harrows
will chop these bulky materials up
ready for the pillow where they can be
turned under. If you want to fatten
the old farm, stuff it with organic
matter.

UNIONIZING THE FARMS,

A most unusual strike is in progress
in Lancashire, England. The farm
hands of the countryside have formed
a union and are on the warpath for
shorter hours, better wages, and rec
ognttion of the union. It has been said
time n again that farm Iaborers are
the freest men on earth; that they
scorn unionism, and all it stands for.
If successful, the Lancashire strike
may change the Industrial history of
h world, says The Brooklyn Times.
Farm hands have before been known
TO organize and fight for their rights,
In the fourteenth century John Ball
went from town to town agitating and
forming the peasants into clubs. In
1877, when the boy king Richard came
to h throne, the peasants whom Bal
had organized, rose in rebellion under
Wat Tyler n marched upon London
Among the things that Tyler demand
ed for the peasnts were the abolition
OF serfdom. an end to market dues
tenants to become leaseholders. The
king promised everything, and gave
nothing. Kings, like women, see moth.
ing dishonorable in changing theil
minds.
Closer cooperation between farmers
and farm laborers there should be ant
will be. But peasant revolts have nev.
err held together. Farm hands are TOT
much separated by distance to form
permanent unions. Their interests ar,
too varied. Work is by seasons, ant
the wage depends upon the time of tn,
year. 1T lis not likely that the Lanca,
shire union will live. Many influence
are making farms more profitable AM
wages higher. In the good old day
the farmers sons worked out at hay
ing time. Today foreigners are takinI
the place of the old inhabitants III
many farming communities, and en-,
ploy largely their own countrymen.
The Lancashire movement Is inter
esting, but will probably not result i
permanent farm hands unions.

a Wise Course.

Atlanta Constitution: Republican
leaders in the senate they
will oppose only formal objection to
the new tariff bill. They owe 1t to
their party, Of course. to enter protest.
and to- offer substitute bills for some
of the schedules. But there will be
none Of the old f1ibusters thai used to
be a national scandal, and that had
the record for wasting the country's
time and money.
This course is both wise and patri-
otto.
The country is reconciled to the new
tariff. It is minded to give it a thor
ough and impartial trial. 1t is evident
that the democrats can muster the
necessary strength to pass the bill.
Futile opposition would only delay the
operation of the law, to the detriment
Of every interest in the land. If this
republican policy holds in the house,
and in conference. we shall have q new
tariff law very soon.
