Great War Elrglta.

The death recently of the author of he well known [wm. “The Bine the Gray." recalls the singular fact that the three most popular war elegli have been written by one poem aothora. The late Judge Francis Miles Finch wrote more than poe-poem, the same Theodore O'Hara, anchor of 'Tbo Bivouac of the Dead." but It Is not believed that Charles Wolfe wrote any published verse other than the one which handed his name down to poa terity. “The Burial of Sir John Moore.' All three won their lasting fame by a single bunt of elegiac Inspiration. Each of the poems here considered sprang from the feelings of the aotbors who produced them. Charles Wolfe was a fellow countrymen of General Moore and was* deeply Moved by the pathos of the British soldier's tragic death and burial In a foreign land: No uartesB coflln Inclosed his breast.

Colonel O'Hara tot* part In the consecration of the bivouac of hie fallen comrades of tlie Mexican battlefields. Echoes of the past therefore surged through the brain that was Inspired to begin a memorial poem with the

And Olory guards with solemn round The blvousc of the dead. Judge Finch was not a soldier, bnt the heart of a born poet and the courage of a patriot conjured the pen when It spanned the still yawning "bloody chasm" with

The Automobile Question. A great deal of poetical prose has been written about the pleasures of quirt walks along country reads. The odors of the woods, the peaceful the clean and vigorous sir. all combine to lead man to higher and better i boughta. From the dty*a noise and dangers to the safety and sweet repose of the country roads—reams have ou written about It But It will ve to be written all

uutrue.

rbere are no quiet country roads that e fit to walk on that the automobl a not found. The sweet odors of woods have been gaaoUncd. The dean is clouded with dust and the quiet and repoee are rent with the hookhonk of the horn and the noisy chugchug or the rhythmical whir of chlnerj. the country highway between the man who walks and the man who rides there la little question as to the right of way. Might make# right and the pedestrian who ta' not quick of ear and nimble of foot had better keep to the This brings us seriously to the auto mobile question—a question that grosra more Important every day. ■ question which every man, woman and child to travels In any way la Interested. Probably It will regulate Itself in time, be regulated. Everybody la beginning to realise this. Just at present automobiles are mainly of the wealthy claeaea. AutomoblUng la UAle more To own a powerful machine and to run top speed The danger adds to the spice. Bo long as this Is so the Monday morning I per* of ell big cities will continue be filled with accounts of people maimed and killed; so long will parties be held up by who are learning to regard all drivers of machines as natural enemies to be pounced on and fined and annoyed whenever possible. Public highways are maintained by public taxation for ordinary traffic. Automobile* that go at the rate of from thirty to sixty n only are a menace to other vehicles, bnt do great damage People responsible for the maintenance of the roads have a reasonable grievance against the use to which this class of automblHats put them. What shall the remedy be? roads for automobiles maintained by the automoblllsts themselves and upon which there are would relieve the public highways and no doubt kill off a great many of the speed fiends. Killing la not to be BgM ly advocated, but In this case the Ut lug would be confined to one class an would doubtieaa add nest to the Sport.

The Ash Accumulation It Is often a real question of j what to do with the accumulation of ashes before the ash-man comes for them. The best answer to that J question is “don’t have any ashos to accumulate.” Get a gas range and do away with this as well as much other unnecessary labor. Every adcl tlonal step adds to the burden or general housework. Why carry coal and dump ashes on hot summerdays when that time could bo saved for pleasuring and the house kept cool and comfortable by the use of a gas range.
