Breathes there the man with soul so dead
Who never to himself hath said,

Whose heart hath ne 'er within him burned,
As home his footsteps he hath turned
From wandering on foreign strand?
If such there breathe, go, mark him well;
For him no minstrel raptures swell;
High though his titles, proud his name,
Boundless his wealth as wish can claim,
Despite those titles, power and peh

Living, shall forfeit fair renown,
And doubly dying, shall 60 down
To the vile dust from which he sprung,
Unwept, unhonored and unsung.

The glory is departing from country
life in England. and common sense is
coming in. English farmers are band

and fox hunting.
The fox, say these upstart meddlers
with one of Rritain's oldest institu-
tons. is pest. whose presence in the
countryside makes chicken farming
impossible, and the red coated hunters,
with their musical dogs. are cOmpos-

Wherefore British farmers are form

ing fences to make cross country rid
ing difficult. shooting and trapping
foxes. and here and there some disci
pie of Jack Cade even threatens TO
shoot the lord of the manor who rides
over growing crops.
1t is all very wicked and anarchistic
no doubt-from the fox hunters point
of view. AS mere human beings far
enough away to take Il dispaSSiOEate

will wonder only why British farmers
did not end this expensive farce be-

COILiDED WITH STREET CAR

John Spellesy, residing at 1105
East First street, lies in St. Joseph's
hospital with a slight fracture of the
skull and minor internal INJURIES re-
ceived yesterday afternoon. when he
collided on his bicycle with street
car at First and E streets. Spellcscy
was riding his wheel east on First
street as the ear was going up =
street, and evidently intended to pass
around the rear of the car. The mo-
torman, being unable to see the ap-
preaching bike. slowed up at the cor
ner of First street, and that slowing
up is what in all probability caused
the accident, as Spellesey with his
bicycle hit the guard on the rear of
the car in his attempt to go around
it.

The agricultural experiment station
Of Ohio has been making some tests
rs to which end of a post should be set
in the ground. Farmers generally be
lieve in planting it with the butt OF
root end upward, on the principle that
as it is easier tor the sap TO run up
the tree than down it setting the post
upside down tends to prevent the rise
of water and helps to keep the wood
dry. The Ohio officials planted 15f
black locust posts twenty Years ago
Onethird of those set top down have
rotted off and only a little more than
onc-SiXth of those set top up have
met Il similar fate. They reach the
conclusion that there is no difference,
which end is put into the ground. eX

should have the preference.

the Russian entry into Lemberg:

when the Austrians began to give way
before our infantry. Then we were let

soon converted the retreat of some
detachments into rout We heard
men cry out in terror: The Cossacks!
the Cossacksn
The Hungarian cavalry tried to stop
us, but we swept them aside like straw.
They had red breaches and beautiful
| Jackets like those worn by our Co.'S
sack women, and fine horses. They
were good riders, but did not know
how to use spears.
when we, the Don Cossacks, charge
we throw in our blows not only our
own weight, but the whole weight of
our horses. The Austrians fed in a
panic.
"The same morning the Cossacks
| rode into the conquered town. Nobody
fired on us. We were received as
friends and brothers. Church bells
rang and priests came out and blessed
| US.
"A young Cossack officer, fresh from
the cavalry school, saw German ar
mored train try to penetrate into Rus
sian Poland. 1t bristled with machine
| guns. He divided his small force, sent
one half back behind the train and de.
stroyed part of the track. He met
the train with the other half. The
Germans thought large forces Of Rus
