THE HUMAN PROCESSION

Charles s. Me1len, whose recent res- ignation from the presidency of the New Haven and subsidiary lines creat- ed a sensation in American railroad circles, will pass his sixty second mile stone to-day. The ex-Nabob of the New Haven was born in Lowell, Mass, and commenced his railway career as a clerk in Concord, N. H., at a. salary of $25 per month. He rose to be chief clerk, then general manager of the Boston & Lowell, next general traffic manager of the Union Pacific New Haven. He left the New Haven in 1897 to accept the presidency of the Northern Pacific, but returned to the New Haven as president ten years ago. MeHen's resignation was due to a variety of causes. The reduction of the dividend rate from per cent. to per cent, was naturally not pleas ing to the stockholders, while his traffic agreement with the Grand Trunk and the series of fatal wrecks on the New Haven aroused public indignation. Not the least of the causes of his fall, however, was his attitude toward the newspaper repor- ters. He apparently considered him self a nabob, too high and naughty and altogether splendifero1s to think of meeting mere newspaper men face to face, and whatever communications ne de1gned 70 g1Ve the press were re- ceived by the reporters in written form from the hands of hireHngs of the court. This attitude naturally aroused the affection of the scrfbes, and they labored day and night think ing of nice things to write about MT. Me11en. The moral of this is that while reporters are doubtless pestifer- ous insects, they should always be treated kindly, for, like bunble-bees they have weI1-deve1oped and busi- ness-1ike singers

 the custom of open air band concerts during the has become general to suggest the growth of real musical feeling Treasury watch dogs may look askance at providing the concerts at public feeling that the chors rendering of Coronation and the pratg melodies of the dance orchestra provide all needed artistic culture.
 But there few appropriations that slip thro gh with less general opposition. In many of the smaller towns the band music is provided without any copensa tion
 No community afford to deny encouragement to musicians It has been said that Americans take pleas sadly But the band concert democratic festival which brghtens many lives. The town without good band seems slow.

FIRST THINGS IN HISTORY

The first street to be illuminated by gas was Golden Lane, in London, where the new method of lighting was first used 1O6 years ag0 tonight, Au- gust 16, 1907. PalI Mall was lighted by gas in 1909, and between 1813 and 1920 the system was installed throughout London. Gas-lighting was introduced in New York in 1923, and in Paris in 1919. The first ex- perinnents with illuminating gas were made in 1792 by MT. Murdoch, in Cornwall England. In 1903 the Ly- ceum theatre in London was lighted with gas, and in the following year a Manchester mill adopted the system. The cost of illuminating gas continued high until kerosene and electricity forced a gradual reduction. In 1860 the price per thousand cubic feet ranged from $1.5O in Pittsburgh to $7 Philadelphia had the lowest rate of any big city except Pittsburgh, $2.15. In New York and Boston the rate was $2.5o, and $S.50 rate prevailed in Chicago, St. Louis, Detroft5' Milwaukee and most of the middle western cities In Maine, upper New York and Can ada the rates ranged even higher, as high as $7.00.

SCRAP BOOK FOR TO-DAY

A century ago Napoleon opened his second campaign of 1913 by aiming a blow at Berlin, where he hoped to ex- tinguish the popular instruction at it's source. Oudinot marched on the Prussian capital from Baruth, and was supported by a force from Mag deburg, while Dayoust sent another corps from Hamburg.
 In Berlin there was feverish excite ment. The name of Napoleon still aroused terror in the hearts of men. Bernadotte, Napoleon's former mar shal, now crown prince of Sweden and one of the generals of the allies, pro posed to retire without giving battle and sacrifice Berlin. The city was not his capital. The Prussians aatur- ally held another opinion, and PuIow, in spite of Rernadotte, marched out to meet the enemy. Six days later, at Grossbeeren, almost within cannon shot of Berlin, the landwehr first dis tinguished itself, and Berlin was saw ed.
 A week before the beginning of the campaign on the I7th the truce had expired, and Austria, her ultimatum refused, went over to the allies Ma poleOn's wisest counsel1ors had urged him to compromise All such sugges- tions he repulsed with scorn. To Sa- vary he wrote:
 You bore me continually about the necessity of peace. know the sit uation of my empire better than you do; no one is more interested in con c1uding peace than myself, but I shall not make a dishonorab1e peace, or one that would see us at war again in six rronths.''
 At the resumption of hostiIities the opposing forces were a bout equal. Ma poleon's armies in Germany had grown to a strength of more than half a mill lion men, and the allies had little if any fewer. In Saxony. under Bona pdrte's immediate command, there were 235, 900 soldiers. Oudinot, who led the attack on Berlin which was turned back by Bulow, had 30, GOO men. An army of 5o,OoO occupied upper Ba- varia and threatened the Austrian frontier. Some 150,000 French troops held the northern stronghoIds from Hamburg to Dantzig and along the Oder and the Elbe.
 NapoIeon's army was surrounded by a circle of armies flying the flags of Prussia, Russia, Austria. and Sweden For. the Germans it was a holy war a war in defense of home and native land. To the Russians it was a war for revenge on the vandal who had forced the destruction of Moscow, their sacred city.
 While Oudinot marched on Berlin, Napoleon planned to descend on the enemy's rear, push the allies toward Dresden, and crush them between his

New York, Aug. 16-Charles F, Brooker, of Ansonia, Conn, member from that state of the Republican American Brass Company, and a. di- rector in the New Haven road, has returned from Europe.

 MT. Brooker said: ''An excellent selection was made when it was de cided to place Howard Elliott at the head of the New Haven system. He will make g. good president His pol icies are favorab1y regarded and he himself is we'll liked.
 ''The New Haven railroad would be all right if the professional po1icftaine and other disturbers would let it alone.

 MT. Brooker was asked if it was true, as had been reported by cable. that he advocated a change in the name of the republican party to the conservative party. That is quite un- true" he replied. 'I was interviewed abroad, in the midst of which I was asked if a change in name were brought about. My reply was to the effect that I would be sorry to witness the elimination of the name republi- can, for this has stood during the past generation for progress and conserva- atism.

Baron Hawke, who recently visited America to consult with bankers rel a.tive to the formation of a. land credit banking institution similar to those of France and Germany, is the sev- enth of his line, the first Baron Hawke having been a famous naval hero of the middle eighteenth century. Lord Hawke was born ffty-three years ago to-day, and gained his first fame as a cricket player, and is still an enthu- siast on that game.
 James Wilson, for sixteen years the head of the United States Department of Agriculture, will to-day celebrate his seventy-eighth birthday in citizens 8 clothing. Dr. Wilson recently visit ed his native land, Scotland, and the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws by the University of Edinburgh. He was a doctor before that, however having received the same degree from the University of Wisconsin in 1904 and McGill University in 1909. Dr. Wi1son-or "Tama Jtn,'' to give him his less formal name-came to Amer ica at the age of sixteen, settling first in Connecticut and soon afterwards in Tama county, Iowa. He was active Iy engaged in farming for many years before the political bee began buzzing. He was tried, convicted, and Sentenc- ed to the State legislature. Later for good behavior, he was permitted to go to Congress President McKin- ley appointed him secretary of agri- culture in 1897. He continued to hold that portfolio throughout the Mo Kin1ey, Roosevelt and Taft admins trations. When he retired last March owing to the election of a Demo- cratic president, he held the record for cabinet service, having far sur passed that of Albert Gallatin, who retired as secretary of the treasury just a century ago, after a service of a dozen years.
