SAN FRANCISCO-With large ship ments of gray sandstone, mountain sage, and cactus taken from the rim of the Grand Canyon of Arizona ale ready In San Francisco and ready for use, work Is progressing rapidly on the miniature of the canyon, which will be one of the most expensive and attractive concessions of the Panama Pacific International exposition.
 This concession which is being con structed by the Santa te railroad ut a cost to exceed $3O,OOO, will be au exact replica of natures masterpiece While it will occupy only five and ! half acres, scientific devices will show the canyon in its proper perspective and give the. visitor a true concep- ton of it's great heights and distances
 To make the resemblance between the miniature as close as human in- gcnuity will permit, great quantities Of rIck and shrubbery are being brouglt | to San Francisco from the canyon and will be used in the building of the concession. large quantity of gray sandstone has been received from the canyon together with three, mountain and desert sage, cactus and yucca.

rRAppERs USING POISON.

Trappers in the lower Panama and Yukon valleys arc reported to be using poison in taking fur bearing animals. Information has been sent tc the officials at Fairbanks that fur bearers are being killed off in large numbers and the officials will in- vestlgate.
 There is strict law in Alaska which says that no fur-bearing anis mai shall be caught or killed by the use of poison. Many of the animals poisoned are never found as they creep away and hide or are covered with snow and their pelts lost. Be- sides. it is a well known fact that the belts of animals poisoned are not nearly so valuable as those shot or trapped.

HORSES IN WAR.

| Wall Street Journal: 1t is one of
the grim realities Of war that men are
far cheaper than horses. They can
be more easily replaced. They are
not so costly to feed; nor does what
they eat involve the bulk Of transport
necessary to sustain q large cavalry
| force. The horse is a commodity
vance in this country most rapidly.
No doubt the buying will be through
private agencies, but the destination
will be the field of battle. and the
nation which commands the sea is
likely to have first pick.
When an advance is checked, much
is said about the exhaustion of the
! men Exhaustion of the horses is a
far more serious matter. because the
men can soon rest or be recruited,
placed at a costly expenditure of time.
No doubt the motor is responsible for
much Of the transportation in the
present war; but it cannot handle ar
tillery in the field, and cavalry can
not charge on motor cycles.
In the German staff record and
study of the Boer war the highest
praise of any general, after Lord
Kitchener, was given to the present
E'ejld Marshal French. He has the
rare talent of handling cavalry in
mass. Cavalry generals are born
rather than made; and the German
staff paid him the compliment of lik-
ening him to Ney and Phil Sheridan.
1t must crafty them to find how ac-
curate their judgment was
But French used up his horses in
the Boer war at rate which scared
the war Office and the British tax
payer, two institutions which do not
always realize that you cannot have
on,elettes without breaking eggs. Cen
era1 French's cavalry tactics in the
present campaign have won unstint-
ed praise from expert critics. But he
must have used DO horses at a rate
which may easily explain why the
Germans have been able to reform
their lines behind the Aisne-a man
oeuvre perhaps principally intended
to restore the lines of communica-
ton and to repair damages.
The world supply Of horses is linz
tied. and the effect of communicating
is likely to be felt in next years plow-
ing, to say nothing of the harvest. It
IS we'll enough to talk of the women
and old men attending to the sowing.
and harvesting. But the horse IS an
imperative necessity in such aericul-
tural work, and his absence will be
severely felt.
The horse is indeed one of the sin
ews of war. Perhaps another, equal
~ important though different, is gas
o!ine. The exhaustion of these two
essentials may be a matter of life and
death to Germany at no distant date.

Europe has accustomed the people
there to at least the outward forms
of respect for the national flag, the

on the part of Russians to transfer
great share of the trade which has
been going to Germany to England
and the United States.
The antagonisms and antipathies Of
war are bound to be reflected for a
time, at least, in the commercial rela-
tions of all the countries involved
This feeling will wear off after time
and it Is to be hoped that peace will
be brought about on such a basis that
fear of further war will be removed
from the thoughts of all nations. But
during the period Of readjustment
many permanent trade changes will be
made. and undoubtedly, if the busi-
ness people of the United States are
as alert and resourceful as we usually
suppose them to be, they will not fail
to take advantage Of the opportunities
thus presented for the furtherance, in
a proper and legitimate way, Of the
commercial influence of this country.

PATRIOTIC ETIQTETTE.

The centennial Of the writing Of
"The Star spangled Banner" has
brought forth a good deal of com
,nent, editorial and individual, on this
song in particular, and patriotic songs
IN general, and in many of the artt-
cles mention has been made of the
singular lack OF responsiveness on the
part OF American audiences to the
singing and playing Of the two com
positions which, by custom and com
mon consent, have long been regard
ed as our two great national songs
The audience which rises while either
America" or 1.-THE Star spaneled
Banner" is being played is the excen-
tion.
An illustration of this was given at
the last Sunday afternoon band con-
cert given in Central park. A local
man. an acquaintance OF The Her
AIDS, was present, and, during the lat
ter part Of the concert, he had been
sitting on the grass The closing
number was ''The Star spangled Ban
ner. and, as the opening bars were
played, this informant rose and re-
moved his hat. To his establishment
ne found that, SO far as he could oh
serve. he was the only person in that
assembly Of some two thousand peo.

ANOTHER ARCTIC TRAGEDY.

New York Times: From the later
and fuller details as to the experiences
Of the men who were forced out on
the ice from the wrecked Karluk one
is almost forced to the conclusion that
with the head of the expedition alb
sent serious agreements arose from
the lack of recognized and obeyed
commander. This may not be the cor
rect explanation of the separation of
the survivors into small fractions,
both before and after the departure
of Capt Bartlett from Wrangel ISL
and in search of aid Apparently,
however, there were various opinions
among the scientists as to where the
best chances for safety lay, and even
those who reached the desolate rock
for which they started after the loss
Of the ship did not choose to utilize
what might be thought the advantage
OF living together as a single party.
Yet the expedition, when disaster
befell it, had hardly been out long
enough to develop the irritabilities
and antagonisms which are, as is we'll
known, frequent result Of the close
confinement and too intimate sssocia-
tion Of arctic travel. That Stefansson
happened to be ashore on a hunting
trip when the Karluk drifted away in
the storm was a misfortune, of course,
and not fault 1t was a part of the
in-luck that had delayed his depart
ure from Alaska and compelled his
use of a vessel which, while stanch,
did not meet all the requirements of
modern exploration in high attitudes
OF Capt. Bartlett's competence as
an arctic navigator there is no aues-
ton, and to his skill and courage is
due the bringing, after a terrible Jour-
ney with a few carefully chosen com
panions to and along tho Siberian
coast, of the news that made possible
the rescue just effected. The story of
how the survivors on the island were
taken off after a desperate struggle
through the grinding ice fields is a
worthy addition to arctic annals. The
death list of the expedition is certain
ly three and probably eleven, for
there remains but the smallest chance
that anything will ever be heard OF
the eight men who are still missing.
The undertaking was not a success,
but it was far from complete fail
ure, for a large addition to scientific
knowledge of the regions covered by
the careful observers who escaped the
perils of the journey can confidently
be expected
