It is rather amus ing to see the attacks on Germany one week by certain senators and their eulogies of Deutscbland after 'the wires got busy in the diplomatic circles. Of course neither the attacks nor the later apologies and perfunc tory remarks made any particular dif ference. It was simply a little breach of the manners of nations. As another instance of the social graces among nations it has not been many days since the papers of Great Britain and the French Republic were trying to make trouble ajl because Count Zeppelin had had the good for tune to take a successful little trip In his dirigible balloon. All of this called for the perfunctory exercise of words calculated to set every one at rest. ' And so it was last week when the Japanese Vice Admiral Uriu remark ed how deeply grateful the Nipponese were that the United States had been so good as to train their officers in the army and nary for them (himself among the number). He went on to say that the debt would be paid in friendly visit on the California coast now and then by these same officers who are merely inspecting the landscape and the fruits of the coast. Of course the meeting of the Czar and Kaiser which is to occur in the near future has nothing to do with European politics. Nobody will for a moment imagine that the topic of con versation win be anything else than their mutual health. That is another instance of the manners and customs of nations and princes. The Fall Festival begins to loom up on the landscape. The best advertisement of a town is the fact that the whole town is ac tually at work on something. Nevertheless the Fall Festival was a success last year, in spite of the fact that certain men thought it could not be done. Do you think it would really hurt business to have It known that Rich mond is about to start work on the Fall Festival? We may not be able to have a bal loon race nor . a Wright exhibition but we can have a Fall Festival and the best one in Eastern Indiana. There are men ' in this town who will devote all their time and energy in telling why they didn't work for the Fall Festival last year and why wont be a success this year. They ought to know if any one does. The mayor of Indianapolis has serv ed notice on. the fans and the saloon keepers, etc.. that the baseball scores are not to be posted. He takes this action because he says that there is gambling going on of the petty type This seems a little futile inasmuch, as the evening papers carry the results A man can bet on anything if he wants to. He can even bet on the license numbers of automobiles. Cer tainly the way of the fan is hard. In Indianapolis he will no longer have any excuse to run up to the cigar store and "find out what the score is. Items Gathered in From Far and Near Violence in Philadelphia. Fro the Philadelphia Ledger. -It must be perfectly plain to all sensible men, whether they sympathize with the strike or not, that the instant

THE FALL FESTIVAL , Tomorrow evening the Fall Festival will come up for discussion at the Young Men's Business Club. That means that this is the second week in June, and the Fall Festival is a little more than three months away. It is time to consider the matter if the Fall Festival is to be the success it ought to be. ..

There is no doubt in our minds that the whole town wants the Fall Festival this year. There is no doubt that people are thinking about it out in the country and not alone in Wayne county, either. People In tha town and people out of town are wondering if last year was simply a sky rocket affair which will dwindle away this year with a few sparks. The general impression is that this year the Fall Festival is going to be twice as large and twice as good. Now that Richmond has the reputation there is nothing to do but to live up to the reputation we have made for ourselveselse we shall be in a worse plight than we were before the Fall Festival idea came up.

Think how it would sound to have it said "Is there going to be a Fall Festival in Richmond this year?" "I don't think so." "What's the matter?" "Oh, there are too many conservative men there who don't want anything going on in the town." That would be rather good for a reputation of Richmond enterprise, wouldn't it?

On the other hand, how would this sound? "Is there going to be a Fall Festival fn Richmond this year?" "Sure. Haven't you heard about it? The papers have been full of It. My family was down there last week and they say that they've started to work on it now. They have all the committees appointed. The committees are all at work now. The money is coming in already and they say that it's going to be twice as good this time as It was last You know they got it up in a hurry last year but if they are at work on it now it's bound to be better. They are a bunch of hustlers down there. They'll kno better how to do It this year than last." "Well it was good last year. They are beginning to work together and to work hard down there now." That sounds a little more like it, doesn't it?

There is nothing in the argument that if the work is started now that men will let it drift. If men are going to lose interest in it now, it is not likely that the Fall Festival can be made a success. This much is certain. If the Fall Festival is going to be twice as good as it was last yearthere will have to be twice as much work done. And that work ought to be started now. t ,

This year the Fall Festival ought to bring into town many more people than it did last. It is not an unknown thing. And if advertising is started now, systematically and consistently, it will not lack in the way of crowds or exhibits. ' We call the attention of all those interested, to the fact that the most effective advertising that can be used will be that something is being actually done now and continuing to be done up to the very last moment. Nothing else no amount of advertising the last week will give the general impression of stability, activity and enterprise that legitimate work and interest taken in the Fall Festival will give. People want to know what is being done and they, are taking a keen interest in the plans for the future.

Now what are the things that can be done now? Committees can be appointed from the light of the experience of last year. It goes without saying that these committees should be composed of live wires who know their business. These committees should have the power to call in as members of their committee any man in Richmond who by his special knowledge or talent will increase the efficiency of the committee. These committees should not be perfunctory things. And to our mind there is one very good way of keeping them from being perfunctory and to insure their working together and the quick dispatch of business. No town in the Middle West has given more attention to just this sort of thing than the city of Des Moines. They increased their business and their population by continually plugging at it in the same fashion that we are. - They appoint committees and they have reduced it to a science. But notice how these committees transact their business. They take their dinners together every day. They are busy men. Full up with all sorts of affairs. After discussing the matter informally they apportion the work or rather each man says, "I'll attend to that." The next day there is a report on what has been accomplished. That keeps the committees from being dead ones, filled with excuses, rather than work. That is the reason they all work together.

This may appear to have wandered away from the Fall Festival. It hasn't. It only means that there are things which can make the Fall Festival a success without making it a burden to two or three. The way this can be done is by starting now. By getting the whole town to working. There are any number of men who are willing to work this year for the Fall Festival If they are only rounded up. In other words the time has come to get busy. Every live wire in town should make it a point to get to work on the Fall Festival. It is not a thing for the Young Men's Business Club only; it is for the whole town.

rioting and disorder begin all other questions sink into the background as relatively insignificant and that the paramount interest is the preservation of law and order at all costs and hazards. This community will not tolerate the overthrow of constituted authority for any purpose whatever, and this is so well understood that strike leaders of ordinary intelligence in recent times in America have been solicitous that the lawless elements and harebrained sympathizers should be restrained from violence of any kind, because it has become a maxim that violence and rioting will "kill any strike" if persisted in. The destruction of cars on the tracks last night and the general tendency toward forcible measures in various sections of the city, where evidently whole masses of the population are determined to go to any lengths, exhibit a condition which demands the instant attention and co-operation of the substantial and most influential men in the city. The policy of "drift" has been too long adhered to and cannot be maintained. Be Square! From the Indianapolis Star. The young man who is tempted to depart from the straight path is' apt to imagine that to get and spend stolen money is an easy way to. live. But it is, in fact, the hardest way of all. The awful consciousness of guilt presses continually down upon the mind. There is a ghost of remorse and apprehension at every feast, a knifethrust of guilty consciousness in every moment of otherwise happy hours with those who love and trust the unworthy one, a silent but unbanishable companion of rebuke and condemna tion in every time of solitude the iast thought at night, the first in the , morning, the terrifying dream of troubled and disjointed sleep. Death in the Streets. From the Chicago Tribune. Long years ago the prophet proclaimed the coming of the day when the streets of the city should be full of boys and

girls playing. It was a message of hopefulness and cheer. If some successor nowadays were to point the way toward a happier condition he would be more apt to tell of a time when there would be so many small parks and other public playgrounds that no children would need to play in the streets. The dangers of the street are brought home daily.

A Home Run. From the New Orleans Times-Democrat American baseball fans will note with, disgust that the longest fly recorded yesterday was that achieved by Count Zeppelin, over in Germany. Revenue Tariff. From the Cleveland Leader. The cry of "tariff for revenue only" has been revised. It now reads, "tariff for my own revenue only." Westminster Abbey. From the Springfield Union. Westminster Abbey is secure in its fame as the place where England's illustrious dead are not buried. Or a British Oak. From the Baltimore Star. The tree that stopped the German airship was probably an English walnut. . TWINKLES Determination. "Why don't you get rid of that mule?" "Well, suh," answered Mr. Erastus Pinkley, "I hates to give in. If I was to trade dat mule off he'd regard it as a personal victory. He's been tryin' fob.' de las' six weeks to get rid . o me." ." Elusive. . " .." "Do you think there is much gratitude in politics?" "Yes." answered Senator Sorghum; "but It ia hard to locate. As a rule

It Is something that every one Is hop

"What period have you selected for this historical novel?" asked the pub lisher. I shall not use periods," answered the author; "nothing but exclamation points." Grateful Recognition. We're feelin' some repentant down to Pohick on the Crick. In sentin' men to Congress we looked 'round an took the pick Of people we thought qualified to run a proper race; The kind that would turn out to be a credit to the place. We don t deny that when it came to raisin of their pay We felt a little dubious; but as time slips on its way,The meetin at the cross roads store accepts this sentiment; Beyond all doubt or question they are earnin every cent! Jes' think of havin to go on the blazin summer through, With maximums an' minimums an differentials too! V An' fixin' up a lot o' schedules that impress the mind Like chemistry an' 'rithmetic an' loco weed combined. , It seems to us that we inadequately compensate The services our congressmen are renderin' to the state We ought to raise their pay again, an' raise it high an' quick; At least sech is the feelin' here at Po hick on the Crick. SADDER RUT WISER Y. M. C. A. Lad KickS Twelven j i a -ri i ii rouna dnoi, i running it A Baseball. BIG TOE IS FRACTURED, Almost equal to the old joke of a man kicking a hat on April Fool's day under which was concealed a brick, is the experience of Kenneth Foulke, son of Mr. and .Mrs. John Foulke, South Sixteenth street. Upon enter lne the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium to take some exercises, he spied a ball lying at the west end of the gym and running toward it, he gave it a kick which would have been a credit to a government mule, but the ball was not what he expected it to be. Instead of a very light indoor baseball, he kicked a twelve pound shot, covered with rubber. The bone of the big toe on his right foot was splintered, mashed and otherwise maltreated. He was taken to his home and now has to walk with the aid of crutches. Strange Insanity. Mrs. Elizabeth Smith in her "Mem oirs of a Highland Lady" tells of an old Scotchman who once took the strange whim into his head that he was a turkey ben. He made a nest of straw in his car riage and filled it with eggs and a large stone, and there he sat, hatching. leaving his station only twice a day, like other fowl, and having his food brought to him.' His friends bad at last to watch a proper opportunity to throw out the eggs and put some young chickens in their place. Then the old man. satis fied that he had accomplished bis task. went about clucking and strutting in the midst of bis brood. .

MOUKEY CAGE WAS

A DRAWING CARD Sunday Pleasure Hunters Entertained by the Playful Simians. PARK WAS GARDEN SPOT YESTERDAY THE CITY'S PLAY WITH GROUNO WAS BLACK PEOPLE KLOPP FAVORS MANENT IMPROVEMENTS. PERThe monkey cage proved the center of attraction for thousands of visitors to Glen Miller park yesterday. The little creatures disported about in their new cage built around a tree near the bear pit and were the cause for general amusement. Their freak ish antics were mirth provoking in the extreme. The park has never looked better than it now does. The flowers are in bloom, the grass green and the trees luxuriant in their foliage. There was a constant stream of visitors to the place and a large num ber brought baskets and spent the en tire day lounging in the shade. The picnic season has not started in earnest yet but will be on in full blast in a few weeks. Improvements Made. A number of improvements have been made that are permanent in their nature. A newfc roadway has been constructed which provides an entrance from Twenty-second and North C streets. The steep decline of the walk that leads across the Chautauqua grounds is being bowldered to keep it from washing. A brick gutter has been put down around the pavilion and the walk that leads to and from the grotto has been bowldered. The roads and drives have been bard to keep in repair this spring owing to the severe rains. Wants Cement Walks. Supt. Klopp is an advocate of perm anent improvements. He says they cost a little more at the start but their lasting qualities and freedom from repairs make up for the expense eventually. He would advise the con struction of one or two cement walks ch vear. The Glen Is on hillv ground and the gravel walks require constant attention and are a source or perpetual expense for maintenance. Among the visitors to the park yesterday were hundreds of citizens who expressed the wish that better street car accommodations were furnished. A line could be built to the north of the lake that would not mar the scenic beauty of the park in the least but provide a means of access that wonld prove a real benefit to the public.

Pa uL Saul of Tarsus how the world has lingered ever that name for twice a thousand years! Today as I write they are killing people in the vile, heathen streets of Tarsus continuation of a tragedy cen turies long. Once a great city where Antony and Cleopatra walked, where the patrician built bis villa by the sea. under the rule of the Moslem squalid huts now marc the site of proud Tarsus of the first century. The city was the boyhood home of a little Jewish tentmaker whose phil osophy has changed tbe world. Having seen tbe great light, this little Jew pondered in Arabia until tbe same light sprang up in him and then went to bis native city to tell the story of the new and universal brotherhood. But Tarsus would not listen. So Taul went away with Barnabas on missionary Journeying, and after perils by land and sea be went to imperial Rove with bis sublime message. Rome put him in bonds. 8be left tbe bloody, headless body of tbe apostle to the gentiles on tbe road to Ostia. But some bad heard and heeded even in the household of Nero, and in 300 years Paul's religion was the religion of Rome. But Tarsus, like Galllo, "cared for none of these things.' ; rani's reli-ion leavened Europe. It shook the world. Christian civilization grew and sent missionaries. 2.000 years after Pan I. to Tarsus. And Tarsus killed tbe missionaries. Poor, lost Tarsus. Century following century it rejected the only doctrine on which 'men can build their society tbe brotherhood of msn. Cities and nations that have heeded tbe teachings of Saul of Tarsus have grown and flourished. Cities and nations that, like Tarsus, have clung to provincial selfishness and to the propa ganda of hatred and exclusiveoess have dwindled and drooped and died.' Paul's doctrine of brotherly love Is dynamic -.:-.- Even the Moslem under the influence of Christian schools has learned somewhat tbe lesson of religioua tolerance. And the young Turks, many of wboee leaders are fresh from the Christian alleges established In Turkey by Christian missionaries, have arisen to the successful demand of real parliamentary government While Tarsus femains as object leafor tbe slow- moving anger of.'

CRUSHEDJITTHE ICL Thrilling Experience on Board a Sealing Vessel

HOW THE SHIP WENT DOWN. Smashed In Amidships and Powerless to Escape. She Wae Swallowed In the ley Deep The Wild Rush of the Crew to Escape en the Floe. Constant peril menaces tbe hardy rrews that fearlessly sail into tbe Icy northern seas and risk their lives la the dangerous work of bunting tbe seaL In Harper's Magazine George Harding, the author, writes dramatically of the sinking of the ship on which he sailed with the Newfoundland sealing fleet. His experience was uniquely perilous. The ship was crushed like an egg tn tbe Ice. "On tbe bridge were tbe captain and watch anxiously awaiting the chance to besd tbe ship out of tbe moving Ice into the stationary pack of which the big sheet was part The bowline lay on the barricade, ready for hea tlng when tbe crew should be ordered on the floe to haul the ship's bead around. Aloft tbe spy msn searched the gloom for signs of a hull In the confused and tremendous waste. "Then there came a terrific crush. Tbe vessel, csnght la tbe trench between the raftering sheets, was powerless to escape. Tbe smash of breaking timbers rose above tbe gale as a great corner of Ice crushed tbe ves sel's side s midships. Tbe captain and watch rushed to the engine room. It was filled with steam, tbe inflowing water having already reached tbe fires. A glsnce showed that nothing could stop tbe inrush of water. The firemen were retreating. The first of them, like a creature from another world, coal begrimed, undershirt clad, reached the ice sheathed deck, spreading panic In his path. Above the hailing of questions and shouts that no man could understand came tbe voles of the skipper; he knew the situation as no other man. - 'Men.' he shouted, the ship 11 go! Pack your clothes save the grab! Then It was confusion everywhere. The crew poured up the hatchway, hauling clothes boxes and bags, crowding over the side, colliding la midair as they half tumbled and half slid down the ropes, then back for food. Laboriously the heavy pork barrels were hauled by hand from the after bold, where men bravely tolled. Others fought their way aloft where the sails were stowed. The canvas cue loose, bellying out la the fores of the gale, was dropped to the deck. Punts were slipped from the davits. Soma, hitting the les with a crash, wars stowed in. Throughout It all the captain shouted: 'Haul them punts and grab farther off! Farther yetl Farther! "The water, rapidly rising, drove the men from the lower bold. They retreated to tbe deck. Then tbe Inflow, level with tbe ocean, ceased. Tbe lea for the time held the ship In Its grip. Second by second passed, bringing no change. In that brief Interval each man suddenly thought to save the thing be most desired. A wild rash was made to wheel bouse, to cabin, to the ship's storeroom every msn for himself a scuffle to get the thing moat coveted and escape to the Ice. With one it was a rifle from tbe ship's armory to replace tbe antiquated muzzle loader at borne: with another, tbe ship's compass or tbe barometer; with the after galley cook It was the cabin dishes. In the csbln a crowd surged to tbe medicine chest, scrambling for liniments and pllla, smashing anything that was sn obstacle In their way. Such was tbe scene when the cry arose oo deck, repeated by fifty men and echoing throughout tbe vessel. T1s time to take to the leer Then a great rush to be clear of tbe doomed ship as the mass of men. some empty handed, others laden, defending their spoil from t K. n.miWMtftil nlnnmaA An tha Ice. j "The ship was sinking fast, It was but a short lesp for tbe last man from j her deck to tbe loosening Ice. The men stood on tbe floe, looking the ship . over from tbe bow. lifted high, to tbe stern, now bkw wster. "A pity to lose the vessel.' they said. "Wonderful hard to lose tbe trip faf Then csme tbe final plunge. The mainmast reaching over tbe floe, broke aa tbe weight of tbe vessel pulled It under. Tbe great anchors sliding from tbe bow added to tbe tumult as everything not frozen solid to the deck crashed Into the bouse and galley. For a second s flajh of flame shot from tbe overturned stSres: then nothing save a few seal pelts and broken oars lay on tbe surface of tbe troubled bole In tbe floe where tbe Grand Lake had disappeared."
