Made BaapIpes Useful.

An old adventurer who passed away
in Australia at the age of ninety-four,
was the only man I've known, says a
correspondent, TO put bagpipes to a
useful purpose. After being captured
when the Eureka stockade fell. he
joined the Victoria police, and was
largely responsible for the capture of
the bushranger "Jewboy." He was then
appointed second-in-command of an
expedition that set out to find traces
of Leichardt (another bushranger),
and he used to tell that one day the
party was surprised by 200 natives,
with hostile intent. whereupon one Nc
Intosh yelled: THE pipes, Charlie, the
pipes-while we retreat" The old adj
venturer played the pipes-and the
natives were so mystified that they
stood open-mouthed while the party
marched off.

one day, when the minister called she
was told to entertain him in the par

A few minutes later the mother,
ON her way downstairs, heard the Wis

sisters she had, and, to her surprise
and CONSERVATION, the little miss an
swered, Seven"
After the minister had left, the
child was taken to task and asked why
she had said there were seven children.
Ethel replied:
Because I didn't want that strange
gentleman to know that you were so
poor that you didn't have but one
child."-Everybody's Magazine.

of invitations to foreign nations. In
this connection it is interesting to note
that a score of new governments in
Europe and other parts of the world
have never before had an opportunity
to join in q great international exposi-
ton and may be expected to be eager
to make a creditable showing. Like
wise in the accompanying congresses
and conventions for the discussion of
world problems noted men possessing
the best minds of all the peoples Of
the earth may be counted upon to be
assembled and to render the occasion
unique in recording the intellectual de-
velopment of the past half-century and
mapping out what is yet to be accom-
plished.
The international phase has been
stressed most APPLY by President Har-
ding. who sees new era fittingly sig
nalized Sin which men are putting
aside the competitive instruments of
destruction and replacing them with
the agencies of constructive peace"
"All races and nations" he contin-
ues, shave contributed generously to
bring civilization thus far on the way
to realization Of the human common
wealth. Each has contributed of it's
especial genius to the common prog
ress; each owes to every other a debt
which cannot too often be acknowl-
edged. This is the one debt which
men may go on forever increasing,
with assurance that it will impose no
burdens, but only add to their pros
perity and good fortune. We cannot
doubt that the great international ex-
positions heretofore held have done
much to bring to all mankind feel
ing of unity in aspiration and of COM
munity in effort. Nor can we ques-
ton, think, that in this era of larger
corporations and unprecedented Gag
erness for helpful understandings,
there is peculiar reason for emphasiZ-
ing the thought Of mutual support in
all the enterprises which promise
further advance toward the goal of
universal good"
When the Liberty bell tolled it's i'm
perishable proclamation it sounded the
death kneil of tyranny in the Ameri-
can colonies, but the peals have ever
since been reverberating over the en-
tire earth and never more effectively
than in the recent years. In 1926, we
may be assured, the Independence hall
with the treasured bell housed in it,
cracked though it be, will be the most
sought-after exhibit of all-the start
ing point of that freedom of thought
and action by which man has been en-
abled to advance in $50 years so much
farther than he did in all the centuries
that went before.

q
ficult to convince themselves that the
marvellous changes throughout the
world following in its wake could have
been achieved in so short a space of
time. This year the Declaration marks
its one hundred and forty-sixth year,
but already the scenes are being set
for glorious celebration of its sesqui-
centennial, outdoing in impressive mag
nifcence even the epochal Centennial
celebration of 1876.
BY natural sequence, this celebra-
ton is to be held again in the city Of
philadelphia as the repository Of all
the historic backgrounds and land
marks. Here in Philadelphia Is InGe-
pendence hall, centering the group of
beautiful colonial buildings stretching
"a whole block on lower Chestnut
street, fully restored and preserved.
Here the Continental congress held Its
sessions and here John Hancock In
scribed his name in his big, bold hand
so King George could read it without
using spectacles. Here Is the famous
Liberty bell that proclaimed the glad
itidings throughout all the land unto
all the inhabitants thereof" Here are
the quaint desks and well-worn chairs
used by the fathers, and here is one
iof the original drafts of our American
Magma Charta in the fine penmanship
of Thomas Jefferson with his own In
terlineations and alterations. Here are
innumerable heritages instinct with
the sacred memories of self-sacrificing
patriots to whom we are indebted for
the achievement of our liberty.
The enduring character Of the re-
public thus established has indeed been
ivindicated by the severest tests and
most fiery ordeals-by the ravages of
civil war and the burdens borne for
the down-trodden Of other lands. Now
after conflict Of intensified fierceneSs
such as the world never before wit
messed, the principles of liberty UPON
which our government has been build
ed and developed shine forth more
clearly than ever as the beacon light
of new nations whose most ardent as
piration, however envious, is to emu
late our progress and prosperity. If
all this has happened in the period of
$50 years, nay. if most of this advance
has been made in the last 90 years of
the $50, what may we not look for in
the next 80 years? And how can we
guide ourselves better in looking ahead
than by reviewing what has been done
through survey of past achievements
in the fields of science, art and indus
try?
This, then, suggests the theme Of
what is planned for the Sesqui-centen-
inial exhibition as the capstone of the
1926 celebration of the Declaration of
independence. 1t is to be a great world
exposition illustrating particularly the
progress made in the 90 years elapsed
since the Centennial exposition. In
that time things then undreamed of
have been brought to pass-the auto
mobile, the airplane, the submarine.

He explained that he came to San
Francisco two days before the party
purely for pleasure"
He denied acquaintance with sew
eral guests at the party, but Miss
Rappe, he said, he had known for
five years: He also denied acquaint-
ance with Jess Norgaard, who testi-
fled that while he was a watchman at
Culver City motion picture studio,
Arbuckle attempted to bribe him with
a "fstful of greenbacks" for the key
to Miss Rappe's room at the studio.
At the behest of his counsel Ar
buckle detailed the incidents of the
party, saying he had no knowledge
that Miss Rappe was in his room
when he entered to dress for another
engagement. He acknowledged the
presence of much liquor and his ap-
pearance in pajamas and lounging

FORD RAPED ON
BY UNION MAN

Chicago, April 5.-Henry Ford, De
troit automobile manufacturer, wa.
declared responsible for advancing
specialization in factories and accus
ed of "conferring curse on his work
ers,' before the railroad labor boarc
today in the wage hearing at which
2O4 railroads are seeking a 10 pc,
cent wage reduction.
Edward j. Evans, vice president oi
the International Brotherhood OF
| Electrical Workers, attacked the rail
roads, which, hem said, were tending
toward too great specialization i'm
shop work.
"Henry Ford may have conferred
blessing on many people, those who
own automobiles, but he conferred 6
curse on his workers. They sit al
their benches, half dead, doing their
bits of work mechanically over anc
over" the union leader declared
High specialization was asserted by
Mr.. Evans to be the worst vrime
against humanity" The railroads, ir
seeking sliding scale of rates, ac.
cording to the work done by differ.
ent shopmen, were tending more anG
more toward specialization, he said.
Replying to testimony by the rail
roads that outside industries paid
much lower wages than the roads t.
hsop craft employees, union officials
today teld the board that the carriers
had not presented true summary OF
the situation in their wage hearing
evidence.
Harry Carr, vice president of ma
chinists' union, told the board tha,
John G. Walberfi, representing East,
ern roads, had named AZ establish.
ments in Cincinnati which paid lower
rates than railroads paid.
Everyone knows that a strike ir
Cincinnati two years ago lost every,
thing for these men and that they
now are forced to take what they can
get" Mr.. Carr said. "That is not a
fair example"
"Mr. Walber cited wages in six
firms in New York. / wonder if that
was all he could find adm why he did
not mention the Hoe Printing Press
company, which pays shop crafts
men 80 cents an. hour; municipal
shops which pay SLIP Az, or the
Black and White -Taxicab Acompany,
which pays 80 cents as compared
with the II cents now paid railroad
shopmen."
