Tire Camp on the Beach.

Sunset of the day that had dawned
so strangely and wonderfully for
those two wayfarers of earth, James
and Agatha, fell on little camp
near the spit of coast-land toward
which they had struggled. The point
lifted itself abruptly into a rocky
bank which curved in and out, yield
ing to the besieging waves. Just
here had been formed little sandy
cove partly protected by the beetling
cliff. At the top was verdure in album
dance. Vines hung down over the
face of the wall. coarse grasses and
underbrush grew to its very edge, and
sharp-pointed fir trees etched them
selves against the clear blue of the
sky. Below, the white sand formed
a sickle-shaped beach. bordered by
the rocky wall. with it's sharp point
dipping far out to sea. High up on
the sand small rowboat was beach

from the shingle. but 1t was evident

HOW ABOUT THE ACCESSORIES?

Chairman Johnson accuses Washington, and par
nculary the Commissioners serving in the past, of
engaging in persistent effort to get all the money
they possibly could out of Congress, whether the
town needed if not.
Mr.. Johnson's termination of things the Wash
ngton conspirators got suggests that the conspiracy
produced big results.
What a frghtful lot of blockheads must have
composed Congress for the last forty or fifty years.
that it permitted itself to be buncoed in such scan
ialous fashion.
Congress had to pass on and approve every ap-
7ropriation of which Mr. Johnson complains Con-
gress had the complete, undivided authority. The
District Commissioners could not spend cent till
Congress gave it TO them
Is it not passing strange that the District Com
nssioners should have been through all the changes
Of personnel and policy and administrations, such
clever, skillful and uniformly efficient jobsters and
that Congress should have been so uniformly COM
posed of blockheads and voytops that it never once
suspected what was being put over on it?

ridiculous. Its most embarrassing situation, and

THE KAISER'S ARMY IN DEFEAT.

1t does not often happen that the Emperor Will

people in matters military. There is not a doubt
but that had last weeks overwhelming vote of lack

other than an army controversy, Germany would
today be under new chancellor and trying to adapt
tself to new policies. AS it is, garrison regiment
has been transferred from small Alsatian town to
camp.
The trouble began with the tactless and Often

conceit over the majesty of his uniform. He seems

The garrison with its Objectionable officers, from
the town implies his forced admission that in the
disposition of troops the wishes of the civilian popu-
lace may be given precedence of plans of military
rout1ne. Small as the concession seems to be- it
means great deal to the small towns through which
the German army is ordinarily scattered, and very
extensive shatterng of the uniforms prestige on
which the Kaiser has built up the process of con-
