Demonstrated Eqrets.

Laws have been passed in various
communities for the purpose of dis
cOuraging the use of egrets for mil
linery purposes on the grounds of
cruel methods resorted to in secur-,
ing the plumes, but the word now
comes from India that the birds from
which they are secured are now ex-
tensively domesticated, and that the
decorations are now secured in a per-
fectly humane way. The birds are
bred in captivity, and are plucked of
their "ospreys," or aigrettes, without
suffering any injury, just as in the
case of ostriches. The conditions of
captivity make them more productive
of aigrettes than are wild birds, as
the young are taken away from their
parents, to be reared by hand, when
about a week old, and the parents
then breed again. Thus the nuptial
plumage, which is all that is CONNER
cially valuable, is assured four times
a year. The birds are literally fed
with fish, and are so tame that they
allow themselves to be seized without
showing fear. The killing of egrets
for their plumage was prohibited
there about thirty years ago.

MEET TRIALS WITH COURAGE
Ones Mental Attitude Has Much to
DO With Success or Failure on
Lies Journey.

Our mental attitude makes or mars
as. How often, in times of sorrow,
trial, weakness, we feel that we must
give entirely up to our losses. We
know very well that if we do sue
cumb we shall be weakened, ex-
hausted, robbed Of much needed vi
tally. But if, with bright, brave
spirit we cry, This crisis in my life
is given me to strengthen me, to
raised me still further on my upward
journey; I will not give way to it,"
then with courageous spirit endeav-
or to live our best even in the midst
of our desolation, we shall quickly
find our hopes returning to us.
Conditions will assume brightness
for us. Instead of being borne down
to the depths by our trials, we shall
find that we have been levered up.
by the very thing we so deplored,
on to a higher level, on which we
shall find the wealth of living we
have so longed for.
Oh, it all depends upon our men,
tai attitude toward our life, especially
the untoward happenings, whether
we are advanced or retarded on our
journey!
Let us strive so to adjust our men
tai attitude to all that comes to us
that we draw sweetness and strength
continually from those very things
which seem to hold only i'll for u.s.

SALANDRA IN POWER
MONSTER DEMONSTRATION IN
THE STREETS OF ROME.
PopuIace lnfiamed by News of the
Killing of Women by Gendarmes
at Trieste.

Rome, May 17.-Premier Sanandra
has called the first formal meeting of
his cabinet to be held since the pass
ing of the ministerial crisis which re-
suited in his remaining in power, with
a virtual vindication of his foreign pol
icy.
The tension has been intensified by
reported clashes between Austrian
and Italian frontier guards. The tenn
per of the Italian people has been
highly infiamed by dispatches telling
of "woman's revolution at Trieste.
Twenty-seven women are said to have
been killed and 800 wounded there by
gendarmes when they charged a crowd
which was threatening the governors
palace.
Official confirmation of the report
that the Salandra cabinet would re-
main in power was greeted by one OF
the most remarkable demonstrations
of approval ever witnessed in Rome. A
crowd estimated at 100000 gathered in
the Popolo square at the foot of Pin
clan Hill, the slope and summit OF
which were thronged with representa-
tives of the most aristocratic families
in the capital.
Society women wearing the tri-color
of Italy waved flags and handkerchiefs
as they joined in the cheers for Sa-
landra and Foreign Minister Sonnino,
while bands played patriotic airs. To
the Garibaldian veterans, in the crush,
it seemed that the stirring days of the
war of independence had returned.
Even horses and cabs we're decked
with flags. Beside the Obelisk in the
square was an immense caricature OF
Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria, at
which all kinds of missiles were
hurled. French, British, Belgian and
Russian flags were borne aloft with
the Italian colors.
There was great patriotic demon
stration before the home of Ricciotti
Garibaldi. The veteran "red shirt"
leader responded to insistent demands
for speech by declaring: To-day the
italian people are writing the last
page of their national liberation to
which our red shirts contributed
A young priest who declared all pc
litical parties had been merged into a
united Italy was hailed as new Ugo
Bassi, the priest who followed Carl
baldi and was shot down by the Aus
TRANS.

GERRYMANDER is OLD WORD
Gilbert Stuart Combined the Words
GERRY" and "SaIamander' In a
Cartoon Of 1911.

Gilbert Stuart, who is best remem-
bered for his portrait of Washing
ton, was also cartoonist, and it was
he who designed the famous Gerry
mander cartoon, remarks James Mel
vim Lee in the Cartoons Magazine.
In 1911 the struggle between the
Democrats and the Federals for the
control of Massachusetts was extreme
ly bitter. The Democrats had elect
ed Elbridge Gerry governor, and had
carried both houses of the legislature.
To obtain this supremacy they re-
mapped the senatorial districts, and
divided the power of their political
adversaries by paying no attention to
county boundaries. In Essex county
the relation of the district to the
town was most absurd, and map of
the county thus laid out hung in the
Office of the Massachusetts Sentinel.
One day as Stuart gazed at the map,
had been assembled looked like some
monstrous animal. A few touches of
his pencil added the wings and
claws, and he christened the crea-
ture salamander At the sug-
gestion of Editor Russell the name
was changed to Gerrymander. The
cartoon thereafter frequently appeared
in a broadside,' while the term be-
came one of reproach to the legisla-
ture that had distinguished itself by
this act of political turpitude.
