In Morocco.

In Morocco the prevailing tone is
grayish white, mems clothes and
the houses, towns, bushes, tall um-
belliferae, nodding like ghosts in
autumn-all are white; white sands
upon the shore and in the Sahara
and over all white and saddening
light, as if the sun was tired of
shining down forever on the I'M
changing life. In no part of Moroc-
co | have visited does the phrase
gorgeous east" have the least
meaning, and this is always noted
by the wandering fasteners, who
find the country dull and lacking in
color compared with Asia or, as the
Arabs call it, 'sBlad Els Schark." p

Music In Battle.

The first use of field music OF
which we have absolutely authentic
information was at the battle OF
Bouvines, that village of French
Flanders where the French won
three victories, Philip Augustus de-
feating Otto ~. of Germany there
in 1914, Philip of Valois defeating
the English there in 1910, while in
1894 the French defeated the Aus
TRANS at the same place. 1t was at
Bouvines in 1914 that trumpets
sounded the signal for the victori-
GUS French charge, the first au-
thentic instance of a command CIV

Peter the Great Didn't Hesitate In
Making Conditions Equal.

| One day young recruit was
standing guard before the door Of
the entrance to Peter the Greats
private chambers in the palace OF
st. Petersburg. He had received or
ders to admit no one.
AS he was passing slowly up and
down before the door Prince Men
schikoff, the favorite minister of the
! ear, approached and attempted to
enter. He was stopped by the re-
cruit.
The prince, who had the fullest
liberty of calling upon his master
at any time, sought to push the
guard aside and pass him. Yet the
man would not move, but ordered
his highness to stand back.
'sYou idiotw shouted the prince.
Don't you know me? You'll be
punished for this!'
The recruit smiled and said:
Every well, your highness, but
my orders are peremptory to let no.
body pass
The prince, exasperated at the
fellows impudence, struck him a
blow in the face with his riding
whip.
''Strike away, your highness,
said the soldier, "but I cannot let
you go in
Peter, in the room, hearing the
noise outside, opened the door and
inquired what it meant, and the
prince told him.
The czar appeared amused, but
said nothing at the time.
In the evening, however, he sent
for the prince and the soldier. AS
they both appeared Peter gave his
own cane to the soldier, saying:
sThat man struck you in the
morning. Now you must return the
blow to that fellow with my stick"
The prince was amazed. "Your
majesty" be said, ''this common
soldier is to strike me ?"
Il make him a captain, said Pc
ter.
''But Pm an officer of your ma
jesty's household" objected the
prince.

hold" said Peter again.
my rank, your majesty knows,
is that of general" again protested
Menschikoff.
S'Then | make him a general, SO
that the beating you get may come
from man of your rank"
The prince got sound thrash
ing in the presence of the czar, and
the recruit, who was next day COM
a general with a title,
was the founder of a powerful fami-
ly, whose descendants are still high
in the imperial service of Russia.

WILL RULE TO-DAY ON
POWDER STORAGE PERMIT
Judge Crump to Decide on Snyder's
application for Restraining
Order.
SEEKS TO ENJoIN JoYNEs
Petitioner Owning Property Near
Point at Which 1t Is Proposed to
Store Explosives Attacks Validity
OF City Ordinance.

Judge Beverly T. Crump. Of the Law
! and Equity Court, will announce at 10
| O'Clock this morning his decision on the
application of +. b Snyder against
Chief w. II. Joynes. of the Fire Depart
ment, for an Injunction restraining him
| from allowing the storage Of n large
Quantity OF powder at the plant Of the
Richmond Forgings Corporation.
Under the ordinance the fire chief is
allowed to use his discretion in allow
ing the storage OF powder and ex-
plostves within the city limits In his
| prayer for an injunction Mr.. Snyder
alleges that Chief Joynes is about to
grant permission for the storage Of
plant, and asks for restraining order.
AUTHORITY FOR ORDINANCE
is CONTAINED IN CHARTER
General authority for the ordinance
under which Chief Joynes is empowered
to act is contained in tho charter. which
allows the Council to locate and direct
the storing places of explosives within
the city limits. in all cases where tho
amount of the explosive to be stored Is
greater than one pound
The complainant alleges that the or
dinance is invalid since the storage of
large amount of powder at any point
in the city limits constitutes a nuis-
ance. and the Council has no right by
ordinance TO provide for the maintc-
nance OF n nuisance. The claim is made,
also. that the ordinance is defective in
that IT clothes the fire chief with au-
thority to grant applications of this
sort when 1t was the intent of the
charter that such permits should be
granted by the Council by specific ordi-
nance In each individual case.
The petitioner owns four acres of
land near the point where it is proposed
to store the explosive, and objects to
the hazard such n magazine would
create. lie was represented yesterday
by Attorney ". NJ. Justis.
LAWYERS DENY THAT
NUISANCE WILL. DE CREATED
Chief Joynes was represented by AS

Attorneys Murray NJ Mcguire and John
S. Eggleston. counsel for tho American
Locomotive Company, tho local plant OF
which is interested In the matter as
allied with Its manufacture Of shrapnel

Attorneys opposing the restraining
order pointed out that while in earlier
days the handling and storage OF pow
der was a matter Of extraordinary pre-
caution and regulation. 1t has in mod
ern times become a recognized accom-
paniment Of many branches Of indus
try. and. such, standardized and
made safe. The storage of explosives
ut the point designated, they argued.
would in no sense constitute a nuisance.
