WAY DOWN ON TOLLIVER RUN

| shall never forget the time
Twas when we both were young,
That we first met at an old-time dance
Way down on Tolliver's Run.
Twas on one beautiful autumn night,
In eighteen and eighty-nine,
We took a stroll to Tolliver's Run
Among the lofty pine.
Where once those pines so huge and
tall = ls3
The little brook still flows,
'Tis singing just the same today
AS it sang long years ago.
But we since then have grown old,
Our locks are silvered DER,
Yet memory holds vision still
AS in the days of yore.
oft recall those golden days
AS the years go fleeing by
Like peering through the icy mists
Of a chill December sky.
Though looking back through the vale
of time
With vision of those who've trod
| see many kind and loving face
We have laid beneath the sod.
But this I'll say to you, dear Joe,
When we pass life's setting sun,
| hope We'll meet with those who
danced
Way down on Tolliver's Run.

Shooting for Colliding.

Chicago has long had the reputation
OF being a tough town, what with gang
sters rowing the streets with machine
guns concealed in the tonneaus of their
cars and the beer and liquor "racketeers''
continually In warfare, but until recent
~ 1t has not reached the stage where
harmless automobile collision would
result instantly In the shooting of an
innocent citizen. John Archer. foot ball
star OF northwestern University and
Chester, his brother, member of the
Missouri Military Academy team, met IN
Chicago the other night to celebrate the
foot ball victories of their respective
schools. After night of revelry they
were returning home in a friends car
when John. who was driving, slowed
down to make turn off Michigan ave.
nue.. In doing so he scraped tenders
with large sedan containing five men
A block further on the larger car over
took the students machine, and after
forcing it to the curb the occupants
opened fire, and John today lies in I
hospital, critically wounded with a bull
let in his spine.
The Chicago authorities object to the
reputation that their city has acquired
but as long as members of the under
world are allowed, because of lax en-
forcement of laws, to entertain notions
that they can get away" with unpro-
voEed shootings such as this, there is
liable to be no change of sentiment to-
ward the Windy City throughout the
rest of the country. 1t should be ap-
parent that men who will seek to kill
because of a trivial automobile collision
have little respect for the laws ability
to catch them, and no community should
tolerate this lack of respect.

Who's the man with the most di-

would be hard to divest Senator Ar
thur Capper. Republican, of Kansas
of that distinction. A man who must
concern himself with as widely di-
vergent matters as farm relief foreign
affairs and street car fares in the Dis
trict OF Columbia has his head and
hands pretty full. Capper is chairman
OF the senate committee on District
business and leading member of the
Senate committees on foreign relations
and agriculture. In his spare time he
does duty in the committees on claims
and printing, and at night and on
holidays he steals an occasional hour
to look after his far-f1ung publishing
affairs, which embrace two daily news
papers in Kansas and a string of farm
journals stretching all the way from
the Atlantic to the Mississippi Valley.

UNITED STATES
In WORLD WAR
Ten Years Ago Today.

France is planning to give Presi-
dent Wilson the greatest welcome she
has ever extended a foreigner on
French soil. Preparations are
being made on all sides and the de-
sire is widespread to make a showing
that will strengthen the President in
European councils. Details now
available disclose that the Germans
wrecked the French factories in the
Briey Valley iron regions. They system
atically removed the machinery and
demolished the factories and they eX-
plotted the mines by working $4,000
prisoners increasingly to get the great
est possible production. The pres
ence of American soldiers has had a
markedly stabilizing effect in Luxem-
burg. A sentiment favorable to France
has been growing since the spell of the
Germans has been taken away.
The former Kaiser is .busy in Holland
and believed to be in close touch with
the German situation. He Is still deny
ing blame for the war and trying to
prove Germany guiltless. Many persons
believe him insane. 1t is reported
that Bavaria has broken off relations
with Berlin because the people have
been deceived about the true condition
of affairs.

boons and monkeys. Any one who Is
inclined to smile at the dilemma of the
mandates commission of the League of
Nations would do we'll to inspect the
comparative brain exhibit arranged by
the Department of Physical Anthro-
pology on the top floor of the New Ma
tional Museum. Certainly the gorilla S
brain is different from the brain of
man-but not sufficiently different to
deny him faint traces. at least. of
most of those sublimated qualities
which are characteristic of the human
race. The records of anthropoids in
captivity are full of humorous and
pathetic anecdotes with a strikingly
human favor.
It is easy enough to prove that the
gorillas and chimpanzees belong with
the beasts and not with the human
race. But if the League commission
needs an argument to save these per-
secuted animals from extinction little
justiflable sophistry might turn the
trick.
