TRIBUTE TO DESERT PINES
Well Called Boon to Mankind, Flour.
ishing in Land Where Vegetation
Does Not Thrive.

They are strong, those pines. Their
soft and low-toned converse is the
pent-up quietness of force. i.
Their shade is dark and cool, their
every whisper music, their green
blessed thing, and the aid they give
TO man is far beyond all computation
in a land where other forests do not
thrive. They are not cheerful in a
common way; their looks are somber,
and their shade too deep. But there
is quiet, a reposeful peace beyond
light joy. and when you seek for that
the pines stretch forth their shadowy
arms to fold you closely in.
They rear tIteir dark green shoulders
up above the gray green chaparral, saw
ing the country from the stain of being
but a waste of brWh Where an old
placer dump would lie an ugly scar on
natures face springs up a clump of
straight brown boles holding aloft
thick plumes Of long green needles,
browning the bare and rocky mound
with shafts of sylvan beauty. They
are not pretty-far too big for that.
Their steadfastness, their calm, I'M
swerying growth, will shame all little
ness, and where the giants of that
mighty race rear their proud tips in
lofty majesty, drinking in sunlight
from the blue toward which they are
advancing, or where they stand Ike
warriors of old against the fercest
blows. there weakness may not com
fortably dwell nor aught of littleness.

before the temple of Amenhotep near
Thebes. 1t was brought to Paris in
1886.
II was on the present site Of the
obelisk that the guillotine was erected
in 1892 and Louis XVI died beneath
its blade in 1893. Among those who
died in the red days of the square
were Charlotte Corday. Marie Antoi-
nette, Danton, Camille Desmoulins
and Robespierre, and in all upwards
of $500.
But the French remember those days
of tragedy with less sorrow than they
do the browning indignity of the pres
ence of the Prussians on the Place de
Ia Concorde in 1871. The soldiers of
William 1 showed the usual German
disrespect for art by hanging their ac-
coutrements on the great statues, by
littering the place with the refuse OF
army camps, even at times by hitch
ing their horses in and about the
square.
Should some heroic figure commence
rative of the great war be erected
there the srot where France has sor-
rowed for m IRE than 40 years viii be-
come a spo; where France can re-
i0ce. Even without this final trib-
ute of the artists imagery, the gar
land crowned figure of the Redeemed
Sister" viii remain forever a thing of
JOY to the true son and daughter of
France, as well as to the lovers of lib
erty throughout the world.

"But who shot the mann" demanded
the Iishman. HE certainly wasn't

Why, Lord love you, sir, there isn't a
soul at Green Fancy who could shoot
q thief If he saw one. This is Mr.. De
Soto, also a guest at Green Fancy. He

your theory"
A second man approached, shaking
his head vigorously. He was q thin,
pale man with q s%ingularly scholastic
face. Quite an unprepossessing, un-
sanguinary person, thought Barnes.
"Mr. Curtis' chauffenr. I think n

"Then it couldn't have been Peter"
said De Soto positively. Hes old,
right enough, but he is as big as the
