DEATH OF ANOTHER NOTABLE ADAMS

The death of Charles Francis Adams in Washing
/ton, D. c., on Saturday, would have attracted ma
tion-wide attention even if nothing more could have
been said in accounts about him than that he was
great grandson of President John Adams, grand
son of President John Quincy Adams, and son of
Charles Adams, Minister to Great Britain during the
Civil War. Even in democratic America there
tendencies to consider man great who comes of
prominent family regardless of any lack in his
accomplishments.
If Charles Francis Adams, however had not had
two ancestors in the presidency promi-
nent father, but had nevertheless been in possess
sion of the inherited and acquired abilities which
distinguished him throughout life, his death would
attract attention less and would be no less loss
to the nation.
He was not man content merely to bear the
name of line of men notable in American history
He added to the fame of the family. He was an
Adams not merely in his surname but in his quail
ties. AS Union soldier he won distinction in the
Civil War, rising to the rank of brevet brigader
general of volunteers; a railroad executive he
exhibited his coolheaded business abilities and
made his fortune, and historian he took his
place as of the foremost American men of letters
of the day.
AS politician he was not prominent, if the
holding of public office is prominence in politics
He is remembered, however, for the active part he
took at times, an independent, in political dis
cussions, especially for his dramatic declaration
after the close of the Civil War that the method of
reconstruction in the South was blunder.
1t is historian that Charles Francis Adams
will be best remembered. He was in a peculiarly
fitting position to write pieces of history about
country which two of his forefathers had served
as President his father Minister to the Court of
st. James, and he himself as a soldier during the
whole extent of the Civil War Because he was
gifted writer, he has left behind him works
by which he will be remembered when as a soldier
and railroad executive he will be forgotten.

Tonaue-End Topics
Parks SQUIRREL Population Grows


Fewer squirrels are seen in Capitol
Park just now than during tie summer,
and those in evidence are the old male
animals who are scurrying about for
something to sat. The reason for this
is that the female squirrels are mother
ing theE- new families in the nests IN
the trees. These little ones were born
during the last two weeks and are be-
ing very tenderly cared for by their
mothers who very seldom leave their
nests and then only because of hunger.
They crawl out very cautiously, get a
nut and then hasten back to see il ev.
esything is all right III their little
ones. During the last week in March
and the first week in April the very
small baby squirrels, timid and wary,
will come out of the box nests and
crawl down the tree trunks to have a
look at the outer world and the strange
creatures in it, but they will soon get
accustomed to out-of door life, and the
children who play in the park will soon
make pets of them.

Supplies Carried By Mules

Such articles, along with the huge
supplies that are needed, are trans
ported to the mountains by rail, and
then, because of the icy roads, are
transferred to mule teams. Horses, it
has been found, are almost entirely un-
able to make the ascent over the ice
and snow covered paths, while the
small-footed donkeys do it without too
great trouble. The food supplies are
stored in block houses, which are con-
stantly replenished, and other mule
teams daily haul to the front trenches
provisions for each day. To prevent the
mules from making any noise en- route,
the Germans have adopted unique
measures. Experience has taught them

Thorough German Camp Methods

A glimpse of the thoroughness with
which the Germans have established
their encampment in the Vosges noun
tains is furnished by correspondent
OF the "N "Nolkeszeitung,'' who has just
visited that snow.eovered region. Adj
jacent to the mountain headquarters
he found number of flourishing in
dustries for farming out necessities of
war, such as grenades, bombs, snow
shoes and alpine stocks. The huge store
house where were kept the gifts that
had been sent to the soldiers was so
large and orderly, with such variety
of things, that it reminded him of a
department store. The government S
careful system of bookkeeping con-
corning the movement of its troops
makes it possible for gifts of all sorts
to be delivered with accuracy and
promptness.

FATAL ACCIDENTS CAUSED
BY FALLING MATERIAL

Of 379 fatal accidents reported dur
ing 1914, to the Department of Labor
and Industry, So were caused by being
struck by falling material. Such acci-
dents are mainly the result of careless
ness. In doing work upon platforms or
scaffolds or upon any elevated struc-
ture, workmen are careless with their
tools and materials, and perhaps leave
them lying too close to the edges, so
that a slight unconscious push would
send them over the edge to the floor
below, endangering the life of any one
who happened to be passing under
meath.
The industrial board of the Depart
ment of Labor and Industry, recogniz-
ing the danger from material being
pushed over the edge of elevated plat
forms in such manner as described, has
issued safety regulations concerning
toe boards. These regulation provide
that toe piece, 6 inches high, of wood
or metal shall be provided at the edge
of working platforms, balconies and
galleries if six feet or more above floor
level; fly wheel and pulley pits and
all other openings in floors and plat
forms where the safety of persons be.
low is involved.
Another way in which accidents oc-
cur is shown from the following incl
dent: A workman was struck and kill
ed by a piece of board thrown from a
factory window to a rubbish pile locat-
ed outside. Employees made habit Of
throwing things upon this pile from
upper windows, without first looking
to see that no one was beneath.
Another danger often comes from
material suspended from high places
without being properly fastened. Some
times the slings become loose and the
material slips out. In this way lives
are again endangered.
In factories where there is a great
deal of work going on overhead con-
stantly moving cranes and work in
galleries above, workmen become ex-
ceedingly careless about passing under
moving material of all kinds. They
deliberately stand under loaded cranes
or where there is material being hoist
ed up and down. Just this position may
mean the loss of life, since the slipping
or breaking of rope or chain or the
insecure fastening of a hook, may
mean the falling of "a hundred or even
thousands of pounds of material.
There are two mental attitudes in
which chances are taken, one, when the
danger is known but reeklessly ignor-
ed; the other when the danger is un-
known through lack of alertness. Both
attitudes need correcting. The present
safety movements in our industries are
doing more than any other single fac

that the animals for some unknown
reason invariably firt their tails in the
air while they "squeal.'' Therefore
the donkeys' tails are weighted down
with stones, and the animals seem to
be unable to utter sound. The general
in command of the army in the Vosges,
the correspondent found, makes daily
trips from his headquarters TO the
foremost trenches, and because of this
is frequently mistaken for subordi-

Grand Duchesses AS Nurses

An interesting episode which oc-
Cured in a street ear on the Nevsky
Prospekt in Petrograd a few days ago
serves to illustrate the charitable and
industrious character of the Russian
grand duchesses, who, as is well known
have devoted themselves TO the work
of nursing in the military hospitals of
the capital. A wounded soldier in
charge of sister of charity boarded
a crowded ear. 1t was apparent that
he was convalescent who had been
permitted to go about for recreation
and exercise In charge of nurse. As
soon as seat was vacated, the sister
insisted upon her charge occupying it
A Russian officer occupying seat
nearby protested against common
soldier sitting in his presence.
"Please let him remain,' interpos
ed the sister, - commanded him to
take the seat
"And who, pray, might you be, re-
torted the officer, '' that you presume
to give ordersi"
''That | cannot tell you, came the
reply.
A civilian leaned over and whisper
ed something in the ear of the officer
He arose, saluted and left the car at
the next stop. "A short distance further

A Russian woman seated beside an
American woman long resident of
Petrograd, turned to her neighbor and
whispered:

This In my opinion is due more to
the thrift of the men who till the land
than to natural fertility of the soil. The
prosperity of the farmer. believe,
depends more upon his Judgment in
choosing the most suitable crops for
cultivation than on the land which he
works.
For example. there are a great

who are now independent of outside
conditions. They raise corn, potatoes
