THE BURDEN OF EVIL DAYS.

By Frank Monroe Beverly
Oh, conlrade of the evil days,
Our best years now are flown;
l count you blessed if you have
Some kindness from your own.
1t 10 the common lot, oh, man,
To suffer from neglect
When age brings on decrepit days
We've little to expect.
Although [ frankly here admit
Doatage is hard to bear,
Those who are burdened with our ills
Find it hard to care.
Mans patience may be over-taxed,
We count it as neglect,
We may regard it as of course,
We've little to expect.
But let's remember comrade mine,
~
If kindly cares come not
That It's the fate of human kind,
1t is the common lot.

BOOSTING THE AIR MAIL

Congress has been favorably dis posed toward the newest wrinkle to make the air mail more popular, the Senate having voted tavorably upon a House bill to reduce the price Of air mail letters from 10 to 5 cents. Such q reduction is expected to more than double the present volume of air mail and make 1t worth while to continue expanding the air mail service until all points in the country can be reached by the planes. Optmists look forward to the day when all if not most Of the first class mail going to distant points will be carried by plane.
 Airmail passenger service in this country has not been developed like in Europe, where the shorter dis tances have been a factor in this dvelopment. But the American de- velopment of air mail stands un- approached anywhere else In the world. The airmaiI planes have set up an amazing record Of safety and reliability. Use Of the air mail has constantly increased; but when the rate becomes five cents the increase will, or ought to, load the planes on every trip.

HN lIR AND TRAIN

Travellng bs airpiJHc m th" day tlme and by train at night probably will prove popular mod' for swift transcoutneutal transportation in the days to 7ome-especially for those in hurry. r has been calcu- lated that such trap"ling will make it possible to go from New York 10 San Francisco in iS hours.
 Added 10 this possibility is that Of airplaning to steamships mp 10 300 miles from shore in the Atlantic and then taking 10 another plane when the ship is 500 miles from shore on the other side. This system of super speedy travel. it is calculated, would make it possible to travel from New York 10 London in three days.

INTERSTATE, BUSES

Tn the absence Of federal law the control Of interstate buses remains high in the air. Efforts have been made to get Congress to take action. presumably by placing the control of these newfangled ipterstate trans portation carriers under the jurisdic- lion of the Intersate Commerce Commission. But action in Wash ington is notoriousjy slow, especially ln connection with minor bills which have no political significance.
 The T.. s. Supreme Court, dcspit" the crowded condition of it's docket. lends iself to quicker action and its decision appealed from the courts oi Indiana indicates that the high court Will not lend itself to state regulation of interstate business in the absence of federal statutes

galore, thousands Of the antiques being behind glass. You could not break a glass without making q noise like q bull ill the widely known china shop; but all the same. you wouldn't get the opportunity. Some quiet unobtrusive guard is always near at hand.
 In order to obtain so much local color about the museum business we of course made trip to the institu- tions referred to, as the patient reader might have guessed. As We left the artistic aroma nothing had impressed us so strongly as the guard system. It is not advertised but it is there; and it explains why nobody has ever been able to subtract any of the art from where it is.
 If the police. We repeat, want men on the force who can detect reck- less driver, improperly parked auto mobiles, or automobiles parked too long on the same spot, or who can detect bootlegging establishme ments, home brew breweries and illegal in stitutions generally. the proper place is get them from a museum of art. These men have the watcfful dis position developed to the apex Of efficiency. They have the eyes Of eagles by day and probably the eyes Of owls at night.

DRY AGENTS AND FIREARMS

Dry agents cannot shoot, ran the statement the other day. This would have been important had similar statements not been made previous ly. There has been unnecessary shooting going on ever since pro- hlbition was esta blished, and a week or so ago a tragedy occurred at Niagara, N. Y. a citizen being shot by two coast suardsmen when he failed to halt when told. The citizen feared "holdup" and thinking he had a chance to elude the supposed bandits, stepped on the gas His car was riddled with bullets and he was seriously wounded; if he recoyers he will be blind,
 The transportation Of liquor in an automobile is not d felony; it is only misdemeanor. No dry agents have the right to shoot at anyone on sus- picion of committing isdemean- or; but whenever that has occurred and there was q movement by local authorities to prefer charges the pro- hibition unit moved heaven and earth to bring the case into a fed eral court instead Of relying upon the justice of a local court.
 It is farce to find dry agents shooting at an autoist whom they suppose is rum runner. Any inno- cent autoist, driving at night, is like ly to be mistaken for a rum-runner and if he is to be shot at on the strength Of some minions faulty supposition he is running the risk Of death in the midst of innocence.
 The smart alecks thinking them selves clothed with authority who are too quick upon the trigger need 10 be held responsible for their acts as individuals, just like the rest ol us.

KANSAS CITY POLICE
 HEAD HAS RESIGNED
Phones From Denver Following Stars Publication of South
 Side EsOapade

Kansas City. May IS R-The resignation by telegraph of William A. Shreeve, chief of police here for four years, today was followed by missioners that no investigation was contemplated of published reports of an escapade in fashionable | south side home.
 Shreeve sent his resignation to the police commissioners from Den yer yesterday. q few hours after the Kansas City Star published a re- port of his unannounced appearance in the home Of MT. and Mrs. Leslie R. Choate here last Friday night and of his alleged threat to kill Mrs. Choate and himself because she had become reconciled with her husband after . separation of sev- 1 eral months.
 ! The Star said Shreeve left the house after Mrs. Choate called the district police station and reported that the chief had entered her home while intoxicated and was brandishing pistol.
 When asked about the Choate es- capade over long distance telephone, Shreeve said reports of the affair were gafbled." He declined to dis cuss details and said he planned to remain in Colorado for about two weeks with Mrs. Shreeve.

LESS "STICK' ON THE STAMPS

The United States postal authori- in the scientific economy practiced by the service. We have been told that a slight reduction in the size of money orders and d little less printing on them has saved thou sands Of dollars; similar little tricks of economy here and here have saved additional thousands.
 This streak Of super economy has affected the amount of gum on postage stamps. Who has not discov- cred to his or her discontinue that to lick a postage stamp efficiently nowadays has become more and more of an art?
 If one licks the stamps lightly they fail to stick. If one ticks the stamps heavily is, by the use of a copious application of saliva-the gum is likely to disappear ss if by magic.
 And when one finally succeeds with practice. in getting a stamp just moist enough 10 hang on to a letter for dear life one finds it is necessary to use much force and effort in i pressing it upon the letter so that it will remain there.
 If all methods fail. of course, one can have recourse to the paste or mucilage pot, which ought to be part of the equipment of every desk or on every family's cupboard; cer- ainly it is necessity in every post office, where patrons are being forced 10 ask the loan Of drop of paste or mucilage to a larger extent thar ever before.
 We admit frankly that we cannot see the good of this species of posta economy, II throws a terrific burder upon the consumers Of stamps.
 If the system gets much worse il may he necessary for the pos offices to include a small bottle O paste or muciagc-and a smal brush-With every sale Of stamps.

Gl ARDS IN \ MUSEUM

Somehow we cannot help think ing that if tine police departments want men who are trained to watch citizens, spot reckless drivers. or fol- low any of the other details Of police work requiring extreme watchfulness they could do no better than 10 re cruit their bluecoats from the marble halls and rooms Of q museum.
 Strange, you may say. But make a visit 10 a museum of art. art ob- 'tc,, such as the Morgan Memorial and in" WadsEortil Atheneum. the connected institutions Of artistic dis play in Hartford. You can look like a prosperous citizen, be dressed like a millionaire, have the appearance of an honest man and not a thief: but the minut" you place your dog -i"s into tie repository of art you will be Il watched man, or woman.
 The guards walk about, bothcring nobody. You can he getting all eycful . iu front of $ piece of etatuary that originated during tho days Of 'ericlos when Greece was the cock of the walk as producer of art that lives. In another room, at q strategic point will be q guard with keen eyes. and every few moments he will look | at you--not at the statuary. If you can steal one Of the statues under such circumstances you are entitled 70 1t: this simply can't be done, and 10 our knowledge nobody has tried : it.
 You may be in a room hung wit Il gaudy modern paintings; you may marvel at them-not at tAoir art or beauty, but marvel at the nerve of m modern painters and what they think they're doing.

Niagara Falls, N. r., May 16 R Punishment of the two coast guardsmen who shot and perhaps fatally wounded Jacob H. Hanson. of this city. and of the officers re- sponsible for their orders to shoot, is demanded ip resolutions adopted at mass meeting last night and which were on their way to Wash ington today.
 The meeting held at the state armory was attended by $500 resi-
 dents of western New York. Copies
 of the resolutions were ordered for
 warded to Secretary of the Treas
 ury Mellon and to the two United
 States senators from this state. pr. 1 Royal S. Copeland and Robert F. Wagner.
 Ied By Mayor
 Delegations from Buffalo, led by Mayor Frank K Schwab. Lockport, the Tonawandas and other western
 New York cities and towns attend
 ed the meeting, Many Elks were
 among the visitors. Hanson is sec retary of Niagara Falls lodge of Elks and was shot as he was re- turning homeward the night of May 5th on the Lewiston road in Niagara county
 A. J. Porter presided at the meet ing. Former County Judge Norman
 D. Fish, one of the speakers. said: What travesty on justice we have here when servants of the peo- pie shoot innocent citizens and the government defends them; what gulf there Is between the Declara- ton of Independence and prohibit ton enforcement: between the founders of the republic and mis- guided people embarked on enforc-
 ing law in violation of law.
 The source of power of these
 men is in congress and we appeal to congress for justice and protection in our inherent rights, that We may live our lives and perform our duties to state and ration freed from the constant fear of assassination as we pass along our public streets" community St1frcd "1s 1t any wonder that this
 whole community is stirred 10 it's depths said Robert l.. Rice, Niagara Falls attorney, another speaker "1s it any wonder that the whole Niagara frontier cries out for justice and through the halls Of congress men lift up their voices, demanding that such outrages in
 the name of the law shall cease and that those responsible therefor shall
 pe adequately punished?
 Well may We ask were these men authorized by their superior officers to shoot ruthlessly and without re- gard for human life at every in Gividual who may choose to travel
 frontier road after dark. If the answer is yes then every official who i has given such orders or consented to the giving of such orders should l be dismissed from the service of the l United States and adequately pun l ished, no matter how high in pub
 lie life he may be.
 And if those in authority do not choose 10 act and if our senators | and representatives in congress can 1 not accomplish this. then you and
 l. my friends, must elect senators
 and representatives who can and
 will protect us"

 c. R. Adams of Clean, district
 grand exalted ruler of tbe Elks,

 ing of Hanson as "a cowardly and

 By traveling through the air only the speed between these points would be reduced materially, but this will be possible for long distances only when the common comforts Of life, including sleeping facilities, are to be had in reasonable measure on airplanes.

 The banker reached an advanced age despite a career Of exceptional activity and responsibility. He not only kncw how to make the most of his work but also how to make the most of life. His association In Hartford extended over a period of E., wears, so that precious few men today are alive in New Britain who can remember the days when he first began his banking career at the New Britain National bank. He was identified With New Britain indus tries. however, being director ol the American Hardware conpan! and the Stanley Works.
