HONOR HEROES
Of VERA Cruz

New York. May 1.-THE dead
from Vera Cruz were landed on
American soil today and city, state
and nation paid them tribute.
Two hours before the city was
astir II flag draped coffins were re-
moved from the boat deck of the
armored cruiser Montana and placed
on caisso IS on the plaza in Battery
park. Few witnessed this ceremony
for the sun was but half risen; but
thousands later lined the streets to
watch the slow procession wind it's
way to the navy yard. Perhaps not
since the Dewey parade has there
been such a spontaneous demon
stration. That however was a noisy
tribute to returning victor; this a
reverent one to the returning dead.
The weather for the occasion could
not have been better. The sky was
almost clOudless and there was just
enough breeze of stiffen afloat and
ashore the thousands of flags which
flew at half mast.
Silent thousands long before 8
o'clock began making their way to-
ward lower Manhatten; others mass
ed about the city hall, where the pr"
cession was to halt briefly; still
others lined the approaches to the
Manhatten bridge and finally great
throng gathered at the navy yard
where eulegies were to be said. Many
wore little bows of black; others
wore bands of black upon their
sleeves.
President Wilson arrived in the
city from Washington shortly after z
o'clock. He was taken Immediately
to the home of his friend, Colonel
E. M. House, and thence to the Bat
terry to take place in the process
sion. 1t had at first been arranged
that President Wilson 90 directly to
the navy yard but at the last mo-
ment Mr.. Wilson changed his mind
and was driven to the Battery to
participate in the ceremonies from
the beginning to end.
ORDER OF MARCH.
Twenty-four picked mounted
police led the way. Behind them
we're the combined bands of the
dreadnaughts Wyoming and Texas
and behind the bands 600 blue.
Jackets from these ships.
Next came the coffins in single
file. At the side of each rode police.
man and at the corner of each cais
son trudged national guardsman
The stars and stripes alone covered
the caskets.
Behind the last caisson came the
CARRIAGES bearing the president, the
secretary of the navy, senators, con
gressmen and representatives of tn
state and city.
The cortege began to move at
o'clock, the ships bands playing
funeral march. The crowd stood Will
barred heads, silent. Through the sky
scraper canon of lower Broadway
past old Trinity church and into tn
city hall plaza the proc ssion passed
At the city hall, whose. column
and portico were draped in black
the cortege halted while Mayo
Mitchell placed upon caisson
wreath of orchids, the city's tribute
As he did so the bluejackets stoo
at present arms, and 800 schot
children sang. Nearer My God t

the trees are straight, the pairs are
called couples Of siles," and there are
other local designations. The only ex.
ample of this earliest type given by
MT. Addy is Teapot Hail." Dalderby,
or Scrivelsby, Lincolnshire.
In this case the angle timbers, like
the poles of a Whymper tent, are
straight, so that even here we lack
perfect example of the type Mr.. Addy
says is common.
Out of this most rudimentary type,
says Mr.. Addy, "the next evolutionary
step was to make the walls :.
straight q. e., verticaD, while still re.
tanning the original construction.
The change was accomplished in the
following way: The ends Of the tie.
beams which braced the 'crucks' to-
gether were heightened outwardly, so
that the tie-beam became equal in
length to the" width of the cottage.
Upon the tops, or at the ends, of these
extended tie-beams, long beams,
known as pans (Yorkshire) or 'pons'
(Lancashire), were laid, and then the
rafters we're laid between the pans
and the ridge tree. Finally side
wall was built ION each side) from the
ground as far upward as the pam 80
that the pan rested on the top of this
wall"
Some OF the early English grave
stones erected over the ashes of burnt
burials were evidently intended to rep
resent houses. One OF the models
obviously initiates the simplest type OF
cottage, the one with the bent forks
rising directly from the ground. An
other incorporates the second type,
where the side walls have been made
vertical. The third shows a more
elaborate half timber building with
decorative patterns modelled or painted
on the surface of the filling in the
manner described by Tacitus as en-
ployed by the Germans of his time.
Under these little models were the
pans containing the ashes.

.R|AI.zE OLD Il COTTAGES j
Ancient Buildings of England Be.
ing Pulled Down.
Houses That Have Stood for Hundreds
Of Years to Be Done Away With
and "Jerry-BuiIt Monstrosities"
to Take Their Places.

London.-Now that an epidemic
seems to be on the point of setting in.
IL it has not already started, of pull
ing down old cottages which have
stood for hundreds of years and re-
placing them, it is to be feared al
public expense, by jerry-built mon
strosities, it is of urgent Importance
remarks writer in London Country
Life, to put on record the aspect and
arrangements of the old buildings
about to be destroyed.
The earliest existing type Of cottage
in England has been admirably de-
scribed by Mr.. Sidney Oldall Addy in
his invaluable book, THE Evolution
Of the English House" Unfortunately,
that work lacks the profuse illustra
ton it so well deserves, and the lack
is especially felt III respect to this
historically most important Of all the
types. Cottages, he says, of the ear
lisr type are still found in Gloucester
shire, are common in Yorkshire and
Lancashire, and are doubtless to be
found in every English county" In
this, think, he is mistaken, for I can
find none of the type in question in
Kent or Whereabouts, nor have-I been
able to get a photograph Of one from
anywhere.
l leave the interested reader to re-
fer to the book for full explanation
of the term and the reasons in an.
cient architecture for the dimensions OF
a bay THE principle of construc
ton of the house of one bay was sim
pie. Two pairs of bent trees, in form
resembling the lancet-shaped arches
of Gothic church, were set up on
the ground, and united at their apexes
by a ridge tree. The framework so
set up was strengthened by two tie
beams and four wind-braces, and was
fastened together by wooden pegs
The bent trees or arches were placed
at distance of about 16 feet apart,
and the. space included between them
was known as a bay"
These pairs Of bent trees are
forks" Tin Latin furcae) or they were
called "gayels," or "gavel-forks"
(hence the word "gable"). Nowadays
they are called "croks," "crucks" or
"crutches." Thus a cottage or barn
is said to be built on crucks." Where

TOURIST, SPARE THAT TREE.

For many years poets have sung
and the less gifted of us have loudly
spoken the praises of the Maine
woods. Artists have sat by the hour,
needless Of the Dloodthirsty mosquito
and the buzzing fly, in order to nut
down on canvas the beauty of some
woodland glade. Few of us but real
lZe that the trees are one of the main
thlnss that make this, our summer
nome, SO dear to us. And yet every
year there are some visitors to these
parts VINO have SO little appreciation
OF the wonders of nature or the rights
OF other people that they deliberately
peel OH great slices Of birch-bark and
mack down the most splendid of the
evergreen branches. Sometimes the
owners of property here have even
been forced to put up signs requesting
Passers-by to restrain from injuring
their trees, surely something that
should not have to be asked of any,
one. And in spite of this, the viola
ton OF these greatest of natural beau
ties goes on, apparently undiminished.
just the other day, while walking
through one of the prettiest of the
wood roads on Chebeague, a private
one by the way, we noticed where
several of the trees along the side of
the path had been hacked and de-
spoiled. Only a short distance away
a sign asked those who used the road
not to harm the trees in any way.
1t seems incredible that anyone
should have in the first place so lit
tie courtesy for others, and in the
second place so little feeling for the
beauty of the landscape as to commit
such a deed. One of the greatest
hnaStc nf tho raSidanfc nf rocoo po,,
has been the wonderful natural seen
ry with which it's islands have been
endowed. We pray you, do not mar it.

Cliff Island
Aucocisco House.

The number of guests at the Auco
cisco House shows little sign of inn
mediate diminution, for the register is
being added to every day to make up
for those who have been compelled to
leave. The house has had an excep
tlonally good season., as has the island
in general, and the proprietor, Mrs
K. B. Bachelor is to be compliment.
ed upon her success in catering to
such large and popular clientele OF
guests.
Among the sports of last week were
several motor boat parties which
went to different parts of the bay to
enjoy some of the famous points OF
interest of which the residents of the
bay are so justly proud. There were
also number who preferred to en-
joy the quiet which their vacation
afforded and contented themselves
with less. strenuous amuSementS
The hotel will be open for a good
part of September and Mrs. Bachelor
offers special rates for this month, an
offer which should prove of interest
to those who are anticipating a va
cation in this pleasantest of late
summer months. Since the early
summer weather was so poor, it is
predicted that September will be
warm and bright to make up for it,
The BeecheS.
The register at the Beeches shows
very substantial and pleasing in
crease last week. Several of the
guests Of last week were compelled
to depart and their accommodations
were Immediately taken by people
who have been waiting for the chance
to come to this popular and well-ap-
pointed house.
Miss Anita Silcox, who has been
a previous visitor here, is being vel.
coined back here again by the many
friends whom she has made in her
former sojourns. Mr.. Harry Boland
and wife, and others are numbered
among the people who are returning
here for another seasons vacation
Mrs. Pettengill is very much pleas
ed with the season here, and she has
a right to be, for the house has been
filled this month and is booked we'll
into August. The excellent location
of the hotel and it's appointments are
enough to convince one that it is an
ideal place to spend a vacation, no
matter to what point ones taste may
run.
Mr.. F. J. Beecroft and wife of New
York are spending a two weeks va
cation on the island now. Mr.. Bee
croft is connected with the motion
picture department of the New York
Dramatic Mirror.
Miss Alice Thurber is being very
pleasantly entertained by Mrs. Nor
man I. Black, her niece. Miss Thur
Der has been at Randolph for the
early part of the summer, but will
spend while now at Cliff. Miss
Thurber has recently travelled in
Egypt and has taken automobile trips
in Europe, England, Scotland and
Wales within the past few years.
Mr.. Wallace Gilchrist has left the
island for a three weeks stay with
his family at Cundy's Harbor.
Mr.. Kemp B. Bachelor and Mr..
Williams Haynes of the island left one
day the latter part Of last week in

It seems to as that there could bs

children assemble at the high school
building and march at q given signal

a place would be reserved for them
around the tree, the grown-ups form
ing the outer circles OF the crowd. If
this procession were headed by the
glee clubs of the high school costum-
ed as Mr.. Chubb indicated, the effect
would be very pretty, indeed. The
girls could make simple capes and
hoods of cambrfc. or outing flannel
which would cost only a few cents, and
the boys might fashion a cap of COM
brio Cor the girls could do it for them
which would lend little air OF
pageantry to the jolly festival.
Above all things, the affair must not
be somber. 1t must be gay and joyous,
and there must be rollicking spirit
