Zebulon Montgomery Pike, whose
 eternal monument is the mighty Col
 orado peak that bears his name was
 killed a century ago, April 27, 181s in
 the attack on York, now Toronto, Can
 ada. At the time of his death the
 brilliant young explorer and military
 officer was in his thirty-fifth year.
 He was the son of captain in the
 American Revolution, and became a
 cadet in the regiment of his father
 He had not yet attained his majority
 when he was appointed brevet lieuten-
 ant-colonel in the United States army
 At twenty-SeVen he was made a, cap-
 tain and was placed in charge of an
 of the Mississippi. After satisfactor-
 fly performing this. duty he was en-
 gagged in a geographical exploration of
 Louisiana, and discovered P1ke'S Peak.
 in what is now the State of Colorado.
 He was taken prisoner by the Span
 iards, but after a long imprisonment
 at Santa, F'e, was released. In 1908
 he was given majors commission
 Passing through various grades, he be-
 came a brigadier-generale early in 181S,
 and was appointed adjutant and in-
 spector-generaI of the army on the
 the troops in the assault on York,
 April 27, 1913, and displayed great gal lantry. The British were driven back
 to their works near the town, and
 P1ke and h1S men, closely 1OlIOW1nSs captured two redoubts. Deserted by his Indian allies, General Sheaffe, the commander of the troops at York, fell back to the western battery. Pike's men were about to storm it when a magazine exploded, killing some of the garrison. Sheaffe and his men re- treated, making a valorous defense, but victory seemed within Pike's grasp when his end came. The young off cer was seated on a, stump, conversing with a British sergeant he had taken prisoner, when the ground trembled to a terrible explosion. The defenders of York had blown up a powder magc- zine, to prevent it falling into the hands of the invaders, aud huge stones were scattered in every direction. General Pike and fifty of his men were killed and 18O others wounded by that explosion. Pike was crushed between two stones, but fingered several hours In the meantime York surrendered. and the British ensign was hauled down and brought to the dying soldier. He made a sign for it to be placed under his head, and in that position he died. The victors lost 286 men in killed and wounded, while the British loss was only 149 It was a barren triumph for the invaders for the vil- lage of York was of little value to them, and was soon abandoned. Gen eraI Sheaffe. taking advantage of the confusion after the explosion and the time purposely consumed in the capit- ula tfon, destroyed nearly everything of value and escaped with most of the regulars to Kingston. When the Americans took possession of York, the Parliament-house and other public buildings were burned.

Just as the American woods are full of drummer boys Of Shiloh" SO does
 England abound with heroes who mod
 estiy confess that they took part in the immortal charge of the Light Bri- gade at Balaclava. The last survivor
 of Balaclava, and the last Shiloh
 drummer boy, have died a hundred | times in the last few years, and the
 end is not yet.
 The recent death of Godfrey Char les Morgan, first Viscount Tredegar, removed from human ken one of the last of the authentic heroes of the charge immortalized by Tennyson.
 Lord Tredegar was born at Ruperra Castle, Cardiff, eighty-three years ago
 today, April .2S, 1880. He was in his twenty-fifth year when, as Captain Godfrey Charles Morgan of the Seven teenth Lancers, he rode desperately through those terrible minutes, reach ed the batteries of the enemy, helped then rode back to. safety, one of the few to return. His account of the charge is considered among the best, and is in part as follows:
 T heard not a word of command. nor a bugle sound, as we broke from deafening, while the dust and gravel struck up by the round shot and which fell short were almost binding. and irritated my horse so that I could scarcely hold him at all. These clear ed when we were hundred yards from the guns, and I distinctly saw a gunner applying his fuse. I shut my eyes, for I thought that settled the question so far as I was concern ed, but the, shot missed me and struck the man on my right full in the chest. In another minute was on that gun, but the horse falling pinned me to 1t. The Russian gunner covered me with his carbine, but my arm was free and the gunner within reach of my sword. Next my charger, Sir Briggs. bolted and dragged me some distance, with my foot entangled in stirrup, and found myself alone among the Rus sians, but succeeded in remounting, and in spite of the attempts of the Russians to cut me down, rejoined my men. I found when we returned that I was the senior officer of those not wounded, and consequently in commando
 Lord Tredegar succeeded his father as baron in 1875, and was created in 1905 He was a member of Parliament from 1858 to 1875, The Tredegars have long owned vast es- tateS and the late Vtscount was one of the wealthiest men in England He was the owner of some 10000 acres, and left an estate valued at $25, GOO, 600. He never married, a circumstance due, it is said, to a blasted romance that dates back to the young officers days in the Crimea- Shortly after Ba,la- cIava he wrote a proposal of marriage to an English girl with whom he was deeply in love. The epistle went and the girl, cut in pique at his long silence and apparent incon- stancy, married another man. On his death the title and estate went to his nephew Lt.-Col. Courtenay Charles Evan Morgan. now in his forty-sfx tn year, who married a daughter of the Earl of Southesk.

LINE. WALK WILL BE
 SHORTER THIS YEAR

Rev. R. S. Povey and Hon. E. T.
 Buckingham, respectively president and vice president of the Bridgeport Sunday School Superintendents' Union, in their visitat tion of the various Sun dav schools in the interest of the June Walk are placing great empha,- sis upon the fact that the ''walk' is not a circus The schools are being earnestly urged not to spend one cent for fancy costumes. but simply to have their scholars dress for the walk as they dress on Sunday for Sunday school The schools are asked to remember that the June Walk is primarily and essentially a religious event and absolutely nothing must be done to retract one iota from the
