“Paradise Regained” on Cabbage. It is said that John Milton often used to have nothing but a few olives for dinner, and we do not wonder so much since learning this that he so seldom wrote anything cheerful. We do not think we could write anything cheerful ourselves after diring on u few olives, though we have done it not infrequently on boiled < bbage and prune whip.—Ohio State Journal.

WOOD SUPPORTERS ORGANIZE LEAGUES Leaders In Campaign Move Forming Local Branches Throughout the State. START WOMEN'S DIVISION Indianapolis—(Special)—Leaders of the Leonard Wood campaign movement in Indiana are now devoting their time to the organization of Wood-for-President branch leagues in every county in the state. Many of tho branches have already been formed and are taking an active part in the campaign preliminaries. The next few days will see the Wood supporters In practically every commun ity fully organized, according t*> reports which Harry G. Hogan, state campaign manager, has received from his district and county managers. One of the largest branches that has been formed is the Marion county league, which has headquarters in Indianapolis and has held a number of largely attended meetings and a great deal of interest has been aroused in Wdod s candidacy. Another lijirge branch has been formed by t}ie students of Indiana university, wj^ere 200 boys and girls have band^G* together to support Wood at the primary. Wood is to be the commencement speaker at the university in? June and the students there are particularly anxious to see him get a full-fledged endorsement in the Hoosier state. I nder the direction of Austin W. Stults, of Ft. Wayne, the Wood manager in the Twelfth district, a Twelfth district Wood-for-President league has been organized and a number of branches will be formed in the several counties of the district and in towns and rural communities. Admirers of General Wood organized in Evansville last week and a number of other clubs and branches are in the process of formation in the First district, according to the report of Eugene Sargeant, the district manager. — Hare an “Old Settler.” With a known lineage trailing through 3,000 dusty years the hare may well be called one of the ancient Inhabitants of the earth. Among the oldest Jews the bare and its near relative, the coney of the rocks, were excluded from the ranks of edible animals; but as the flesh of the hare was found to be both nutritious and wholesome the prejudice against it gradually disappeared and it began to be grown and domesticated for food.

DEAD ARE MOUNTING GUARD Soldiers Who Were Killed at Douaumont Still Thrust Their Bayonets Above Ground. At Douauniont, Franco, Cardinal Du- ' hois, archbishop of Rouen and former bishop of Verdun, bles^d the historic Tranchee des Fusils, the “Trenches of the Rifles,” September 14. The ceremony occurred in the presence of Ceneral Valentin, commander of the forts and heights of the Meuse; of M. Robin, mayor of Verdun, and a delegation of the Ono Hundred and Thirty-seventh regiment, according to Current History, New York Times. The Trench of the Rifles lies behind I a humble wooden cross erected near Douauniont, which is a shapeless mass of splintered rock, of barbed wire writhing as if in torment, of nameless litter, through which poppy and bramble tried to thrust upward during the summer. This cross overlooks the bloodiest battle field of the war. It was erected by men of the One Hundred and Thirty-seventh regiment because close bj’ their dead comrades are still mounting guard—there in the Tranchee des Fusils. It was a small episode amidst a cataclysm and soon over. In Indian file the men of the One Hundred and Thir-ty-seventh crept forth to mount guard, rifle on shoulder, bayonets fixed; there came a sudden, thunderous boom; the earth shuddered and cracked open, closed again, and swallowed up all. Thrusting above the ground, aligned as on that last march down the narrow trench that led to death, the bayonets of the section rise a bare six | inches. It was this Trench of Rifles, and the dead heroes, still mountiijp guard below, that the cardinal blessed. LAW AS TO COLOR BLINDNESS > Does Not Mean Loss of Sight, Accord- j ing to Ruling Made by Georgia Superior Court. Color blindness does not mean total | loss of sight in the meaning of the law, I it was held recently by Judge John T.; Pendleton in th<‘ motion division of Superior court at Atlanta. Ga. Judge Pendleton's decision cleared ; a legal point raised only once before' in the Vnite<l States, so far as is shown | by court records. This was in Ne- ■ braska, where both the lower court i and the State Supreme court held that ! color blindness means total blindness. I The question was raised in a suit brought by George L. Fallin, who was a locomotive engineer for the Atlanta Joint Terminals, against the Locomotive Engineer Mutual Insurance and Accident association, a branch of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. Engineer Fallin. It was set out, became color blind while engaged in his line of duty ami was discharged from his position. He then applied to the engineers' association for his insuranee—sl,soo—for the loss of his eyesight, as stipulated in the policy. The association, however, declined to pay the amount on the ground that color blindness did not come within the terms of the policy concerning blindness. Fallin then brought suit in the courts through his counsel, City Attorney James L. Mayson. Chinaman and His Queue. On April 16, at what was once the village of Fanpoux, I met a Chinese who was trying to grow a queue. It was only about a foot long ami did not improve his appearance any. That day while out in the fields salvaging ammunition, his nose told him he was in the vicinity of some unsuccessfully i buried foreigners. He was hardened ■ by this time to all sorts of disagree- | able things, but the incident went to ' the back <>f his head and only serveri j to strengthen his belief that he should ' grow a queue. Foreigners wear their j hair cut short. He had been in France I going on two years and had long since concluded that he did not want to imitate them. Hence the queue.—World's Work. Dantzig Rich in Memories. The old fortress of Dantzig is rich in Napoleonic lore. It was here that the man of destiny failed to heed the intimations of a grand council of his marshals —Murat, Ney ami the rest — that his star had passed perihelion; it was here that he upbraided them for having grown soft in prosperity, aud for opposing the invasion of Russia; and it was from Dantzig that his legions “jumped off” for the ill-fated Moscow campaign. In a later day Dantzig was the background and base for the northern shear of Mackensen> gray-green pincers that took Warsaw. The Gridiron. “But you have no field of honor in zis emmtree," said the From \>r. “Oh. yes. we have,” replied the American citizen. “< )ui?” “Dili, mil. We have a field of honor with two goal posts at each end, and our husl.y young Americans take : delight in plowing it with their noses.” — Birmingham Age-Herald. , Her View.

In a free country every man thinks he has a concern in all public matters —that he has a right to form and a right to deliver an opinion on them. ■—Burke. Too General Condemnation.

Maryland an Old State. “Maryland, My Maryland,” was one of the thirteen original states. In 1632 Cecilius Calvert, second Lord ; Baltimore, received from Charles I a charter conferring on him possession of the territory now forming the states i of Maryland and Delaware. Thus he became a sort of feudal lord, in supreme authority over the colony. Maryland had a long list of proprietary and royal governors before it I was organized as a state in 1777. Tree Like Bone. The yaeal, a Philippine tree, is a ' really wonderful wood. It is as hard i as bone.
