Msxieo,s Finest Statue.

One of the chief works of art in the City of Mexico is the bronze eques- trian statue of Charles W. It is call ed 'tThe Iron Horse or E@The Little Horse.' It stands in the Plaza de Ia Reformas Visible from many direc- tions, it serves for. landmark to vis- itors unacquainted with the south western part of the city. It was, ac- cording to Perry's Mexico" the first bronze statue made in America. Humboldt declared it the second finest equestrian statue in the world, the first being, in his opinion, that of Marcus Aurelius at Rome. It has ever been popular with the Mex1- cans. It has occupied several sites in the city, and it's several removals have caused it to be dubbed 'El Cabillito de Troya'' the little Trojan horse).- New Orleans Picayune.

PARK THEATRE
(By the Park Press Agent.)

There is just one thing in America, so-called land of the free, to which the poor man has no access, and that is the law" Such is the startling de- laration of Bayard Veiller, author Of the gripping new American play, within the Law the dramatic sen sation of the year in New York, which is to be presented here at the Park theatre tonight and Tuesday evening and Wednesday matinee and evening" In the second act of Within the Law when Inspector Burke tells Mary Tur- ner he will arrest her unless she leaves town at once, the girl laughs at him and serves him with a Supreme Court injunction which festrains him from arresting her until he has legal proof she has broken the law. Then ensues this dialogue: Burke: "It can't be done!' Mary: sTt can't? A gambling house can do it and keep on breaking the lawi a race track can get an in Junction and laugh at the law; a rail way can restrain it's employees from striking. Why shouldn't use the law too? I have money; I can buy all the law I want. There's nothing you can't do with the law if you have money enough

Miller Brothers & Ar1ington's much exploited 101 Ranch Wild West show will arrive in Bridgeport, Sunday June 1. As rapidly as the cars are emptied the horses, buffaIoes, long-horned steerS and other attra will be transferred to the show grounds where the tented city will be erected and two exhibitions given on Monday, June 2.

Old Tin Cans.

"+Goodness gracious!' exclaims the housewife. 'sI wonder what becomes of all the tin cans that are thrown away!'
 A friend of mine who is well known business man is thoroughly ac- Quainted with the tin can from it's in fancy to the day of its doom. "Wen. what does become of all these cansT' I asked the authority.
 '@They are,'' he replied, ''reincarnat- ed, so to speak, and become, in fact, a new tin can, but mostly a window weight Then he explained how all tine old tin cans are gathered up and hurled into a furnace and how the thin veneer of tin, which is merely the outer covering, is separated as melt ed product from the steel which forms the real basis for the can. The tin is far more valuable than the steel, and 1t is used over and over again for COW ering cans. The steel part when melt ed becomes a solid chunk-in fact, the sohdest chunk in the whole steel fami- ly. Window weights must be small, but hefty; hence the use of steel from tin cans.-Philadelphi Ledger.

Ide0Is-Their Cause and
Effect in Human Conduct

lievc it would be more accurate to
say that thoughts secrete brains than
to say that brains secrete thought. All
such statements are, however, loose
and unscientific and unworthy of Sc
rious consideration in discussing such
noble theme.
Evory intense thought - every
strong emotion, move ssome part OF
the blood current out of tho common
course, enriching and depicting re
spectiVely different portions OF the
body. Cuvier's brain did not weigh
seventy-three ounces without cause,
and that cause was doubtless an in
tollectual one. True. he could not
have been a great naturalist had his
brain only weighed fifty ounces, and
yet, in very important sense. ms
brain was thus largely developed be
cause he used 1t so grandly. 1t Is
but the story Of the blacksmith's arm.
Nature ever honors the industrious
and richly rewards those who nObly
use her gifts. l am bold enough to
say that timely and woll directed
thought would increase tho statue of
a child during its period of growth.
Lofty thoughts and noble emotions
lift the soul out Of its ruts and by
paths, and set II onto the hgh-roads
of life; they uphold it on spirit wings,
strong hearted and clear of vision to
behold unflinchingly the glory of the
Sun Of Righteousness and gaze un-
dazzled upon tho Supreme Beauty till
changed into the same image. 1t is
certain that the body will, to some
extent at least, express the charms
that enrich the soul. Ideals are in
seperable from the attainment and
enjoyment of physical health, though
its effects are often ignored. All
philosophy and pathology is founded
upon psychology and ethics and
character cannot be ignored by one
who would live in harmony with wis
dom and the course of nature.
No croditable life-work was ever
done out Of days whose work was ne
elected, incomplete or discreditable.
