OBITU AEY.
JOHN H. DONOVAN.

Ellsworth lost one Of it's best
known citizens in the death last
Wednesday afternoon of John H.
Donovan. Mr.. Donovan had been Ill
few days, but his condition was not
considered serious until Wednesday,
when his heart showed signs of
weakness, and late in the afternoon
he dropped away.
Mr.. Donovan was born in Mime
apolis, Mimi, on April A, 1859, a
son of the late John and Ellen Dono-
van. His parents moved to, ELS
worth when he was an infant, and
this city had ever since . been his
home. Most of the time for the past
thirty years he had conducted q
restaurant in Ellsworth He had
also served the city several terms as
city marshal, and also as night Of
ficer.
Mr.. Donovan had many friends,
and will be missed. Generous
hearted by nature, in his restaurant
business he found many opportuni-
ties for exercising his generosity. No
wayfarer without money was ever
turned hungry away from his tables,
and many a man in Ellsworth found
in him real friend in time of need.
These acts he did quietly, without de-
sire for praise or hope Of reward, but
from the real kindness of his heart.
His reward comes now in the tribute
paid by those who knew him.
Mr.. Donovan leaves widow, who
was Miss Ellen Thomas of Eden, one
daughter, Mrs. Hollis e. Davis, one
son, J. s. Donovan, and one sister,
Mrs. Michael Linnehan, all of Ellis
worth.
The funeral was held at st.
Joseph's Catholic church Friday
morning, Rev. j. A. German off1ciat-
ing. The bearers were John W.
Coughlin, William Harrington, John
Hawkes. and M. Edward Downey.

AWAY WITH RELATIVELY.

Some students of DR.. Einstein's theory Of rela-
tivity have reached the conclusion that if that theory
is sound this earth of ours is running more risks
than would be the case were other and older theories
correct. The formerly accepted theories indicate
but a slight chance of a collision between our earth
and any other heavenly body. But when the Elm
stein theory is taken as a basis that chance is in
creased very perceptibly-not enough to become
agitated over, but still enough to indicate unpleasant
prospects,. There are several other hazards which
are greater if the Einstein theories are correct than
if they are not.
Something ought to be done about this. 1t is
clearly against public interest to have Einstein and
a few others evolving doctrines which even they
understand only in1perfectly, and which nobody
else understands at all, when these inquisitive in
vestigators may at any time discover something
that practically all of US wish were not so. We have
enough risks as it is, without searching the starry
heavens to discover new ones.
1t is high time that a course of action were
mapped out. Let congress adopt resolutions fixing
for all time the status of the universe, and let it be
made a capital ofense to teach anything to the cons
trary or to discover anything different.

GATHER UP THE FRAGMENTS.

On a certain historic occasion those who mao
lserved miraculously produced food to the multitude
were commanded to gather up the fragments, that
nothing be lost" In that command was incorporat-
ed a sublime lesson of thrift and conservation, a
llesson that is needed whether there is the apparent
assumption that natures productiveness warrants
1.-THE waste of her gifts.
There is another reason for gathering up the
fragments, and one which becomes more and more
imperative as people crowd closer and closer to-
&gether. Fragments. scattered broadcast, become
obstructive and offensive.
A wad of paper or a handful of peanut shells
dropped carelessly in a wilderness, may never again
be seen by human eyes, and therefore may not be-
come particularly in jurious or offensive. The same
iact performed where. people come and go becomes
an ofense to the eye and the %nostrils, and a possible
menace to health. Similar acts performed habitual-
ly by many;people may transform a garden spot into
a hideous garbage dump.
The siightliness and healthfulness of our cities
Idepend not so much on the work of the garbage
collector as on the ~neatness and thoughtfulness OF
the people themselves. Lacking that, architectural
skill and costly equipment cannot make the place
attractive or wholesome.
1t is not around our homes and business places
alone that care in gathering up the fragments is
needed. Many of those who are scrupulously care
full about the neatness and order of their personal
surroundings are negligent. A bundle of paper
used to wrap a travelling lunch is thrown from the
passing automobile. One such object matters little
But persistence in the habit by several people clut-
tiers up the roadside and makes it unsightly. A pic
mic party enjoys a few hours in a pretty wooded
corner a few miles from town. But in neglecting
to leave the premises without undesirable evidences
of it's presence it violates the hospitality which is
tacitly extended by the owner in permitting the use
of his PROPERTY: it detracts from the pleasure of the
next party seeking a picnic site; and it spoils a de-
sirable spot for the use of its own members on an
other day.
Habits of %neatness and order, or of slovenliness
and disorder may be SO developed in children that
they become fixed characteristics of adult life. The
child who is kept c1ean-within reason-will soon
become intolerable of dirt. If trained to pick things
up" he will be uncomfortable in the midst of disor-
der. And habits of order are not mere surface man
ifestations. They effect all the activities of life, and
have a profound influence on the moulding of char
acter.
Let us gather up the fragments.

A CASE OF APPLIED SOCIALISM.

In a very interesting and suggestive article on
the social and political relations of bees, Dallas Lore
Sharp writes as follows in the current issue of
Harper's magazine:
"In bee-civilization the state is everything, the
individual nothing. Each one exists for the Whole,
but the Whole exists for no one. The individual is
born to serve, and the moment he ceases to serve,
that moment he es-worke or drone, or queen,
'even the unborn young in their cradle cells. For
let hard times come knocking at the door, with more
baby mouths to feed than there are stores to feed
them from. and the tender young are torn from their
warm beds and hurried into the outer cold. Let the
last virgin queen of the season be mated, and not
fonly does that drone perish in the act, but all the
Idrones in the hive no longer needed are bundled,
bag and baggage, outside, to tumble for one pathetic
moment before they die at their own door. Let the
!. worker come home with frayed wings, failing never
SO little of her full capacity of production, and she
lis set upon, never to be seen again in the hive: let
the queen-1nother, in the height of the honey flow
come short in her prodigious task of keeping the
colony at its maximum strengthy let her fall off
from laying her two thousand to three thousand
eggs per day, and a new queen is deliberately pre-
pared for, the old mother, like any drone or work
e, falling "a victim to the pitiless polity of the
State
Advocates of communistic theories NAV find
food for thought in this-if they really care to think.
In the bee community, as the writer points out, the
individual is completely subordinated to the group.
Al1s property is held in common. Every activity of
every individual is supervised and directed by the
group, for the purposes Of the group. The individ-
ma, having fulfilled his or her specific function and
made his or her special contribution to the society,
is promptly discarded, Or expelled or put to death.

A E EXAMPLE.

Those Irish insurgent leaders who are keeping
the wounds of Ireland open and pouring blood, may
find a useful model on which to base their conduct
in Robert, f. Lee, general of the American confed-
crate armies in the Civil war. The confederacy had
made a long and a brave struggle. At times it had
been near success-perilously near for the country at
large. For four years it had carried on the govern
ment of the southern section in a capable and effici-
ent manner, there being, in the greater part of that
territory, no rival to its authority. Lee was COM
mitted absolutely to the doctrines on which the con-
federacy was established. He was a man Of splendid
intellect and fine character. More than any other
thing on earth he desired the success of the cause
Pin which he was. enlisted.
The endurance of the southern armies was over
come. Battle after battle and campaign after cam
paign were lost. 1t became evidentthat it was inn
possible longer to maintain in the field, an army
capable of eontending with the victorious northern
forces. Two courses were open. One was to accept
peace with honor, giving up the fight and entering
in good faith into the work Of reconstruction along
the lines which every dictate of reason taught were
the only lines on which the south could realize its
possibilities OF peace. prosperity and happiness The
other was to scatter the broken armies into little
bands and by means Of them carry on a guerilla war
tare which, whatever its ultimate result, would have
kept the south angered, ernbittered and impoverish-
ed, and which would have made impossible for gen
%erations friendly intercourse between the people Of
the two sections.
There were those who counselled the latter
course, for there were irreconcilables then as well
as now. Lee chose the former way. He accented
the accomplished facts, and he set himself r~esolutely
to the work Of healing the wounds made by the war.
Not only did he take that course himself, but ne
urged all others to follow it. And thereby he dem
[onstrated the greatness that was his.
The Irish irreconciiables have no outstshd;ns
figure like Lee; De Valera, to whom the position of
leadership is accorded, is a visionary agitator5 I'M
fitted for counsel, and incapable of real leadership.
He and his associates seem to be incapable Of under.
standing that while martyrdom in a good cause NAV

O TO KEEP FIT.

.. HOW IO AEEH FIT.
DR.. Vernon T. Scott, describes
how he got a military command into
good physical condition In a month.
and then kept It there.
At the beginning of the month, 60
per cent of the men Were rated fair
and 30 per cent poor. At the end
rated as good, or better, some being
classed as very good.
The largest factor in. bringing
about this change was one hour Of
exercise every day. He considered
setting up exercises and rejected it.
Setting UP exercises are ali right
from the standpoint of muscle
groups made use of and joints bent,
but all wrong from the standpoint
Of spirit.
They lack the wine or competition
and excitement, and they do not
make use Of the play spirit. Thu
same criticism appliea- to all the
usual Forms Of bathroom, solitary.
In lieu Of setting up exercises,
Scott decided on, volley ball. Voiley
