It is n matter to be greatly do
nlorod that St. Johns has no
cemetery. The population of
the city is increasing all the
while, and as a natural conae-
nuence more deaths are record
cd from year to year. And
there is no place within the city
for our people to bury its dead.
Therefore, the expense of a
funeral is greater than it other
wise would be, and the relatives
and friends of the deceased
have a greater distance to go to
care for and visit the graves.
It is extremely doubtful if there
is a city of cciual population anv
where within tho United States
that docs not possess a burying
ground. The need of such a
place has been realized for
number of years by our people,
ana several oiiorts to secure a
cemetery have been made by in
dividuals at different times, but
always fell through before they
fully materialized. Many cities
own and control burying grounds
as a city institution. It would
seem that St. Johns might adopt
a like plan. If oilers of suitable
ground for tho purpose were
advertised for, it is believed Hint
tracts would bo olTored at n rea
sonablo price. It might bo stip
ulatcd in the call for proposals
that the city would not pay over
a certain price for acreage, so
that owners would know that an
exorbitant price would bo futile
to ask. A cemetery owned by
tho city could bo made to pay
all costs and bo sell supporting,
it is beliovcd. Five or six acres
would probably bo all that would
bo needed. Tho matter is
worthy of some consideration at
least. Probably tho Smith nrou
orty on Burlington street, winch
the city recently acquired, might
bo turned in as part payment.
Much oncouragmont is given
tho railroads in the recent do
cision of tho Interstate Com
merco commission graining a
partial 5 por cent increase in
rates. It shows that the ten
dency of tho times is changing-
that it is becoming recognized
that big miBinoss must bo treat'
ed with consideration - that
while it must bo regulated, it
must not bo persecuted unless
wo ourselves aro willing to suffer
also. Not knowing to what do
grco regulation was to go- not
knowing to what oxtent their
revenues woro to bo cut. rail
ways have retrenched, and then
retrenched somo more. This
gives them hopo for tho future.
Public opinion is changing. If
for no other reason than to pro
tect it down nockotbook, tho
public is becoming willing that
tho railways shall mako a fair
profit that tho railways shall
bo allowed to cam money with
which to pay for improvements
that put monoy back into tho
pockets from whenco it camo.
With tho futuro looking brighter
wo may well look for a gradual
return to activity in railway
building nnd development. In

Boiling the Lobster
uompininmg young man, a
word to you, Aro you finding
fault becnuso tho world isn't
doing tho right thing by you?
Uo you think your hours of ser
vice aro too long, your wages too
low, and your work too hard?
Kindly ask your father in tho
light of his experience what he
thinks about it.
Lot him toll you what tho
hours of labor woro when ho was
a boy tho meagro wages ho
received, tho unsanitary stir

days, tho early call to duty and
tho lato blowing of tho whistlo
when evening came.
Your lather knows about it,
especially it no is nnt vo born.
If ho camo from a foroign land
within recent years, he may not
recognize all tho wonderful
changes in industrial conditions
that have signalized tho pro
gross of this country sinco tho
terrible war between the States.
Let your father tell you of tho
frugal home of his boyhood days.
tho meagre faro, the lack of
luxuries, and tho absenco of
summer vncations. Let him tell
you how happy ho and your
mother wero under conditions
that to you would impel a spirit
of revolt.
Young man, tho world has
moved. You are far better oil
. a il -aw
man your latner was. you aro
enjoying shorter hours, bettor
wages, more holidays, and your
regular summer vacation. All
the surroundings in your ollice,

Just when tho harvests woro

all to gratify tho ambition of
certain rulers.
A rotrimcnt of soldiers, wel

but the other sulo of tho picture
is less thrilling. Tho pathos of
war is represented by tho moth-
ors and wives at home. Tnoy
aro not drilled, and they cannot
get tho courage that comes from

an individual battle, a tignt tor

Boiling over a slow firo is tho
happiest death a lobster can
meet, so it has been determined
at tho Jersoy marino biological
t mi i
station, ine experiments wero
carried out by Joseph Sinol. a
well known biologist, for tho
Jersey Society for tho Preven
tion of Cruelty to Animnls, whoso
members associated tho nrova
lent method of killing lobsters
with medioval torture. Lob.
stera, says Mr. Sinel, aro ox
tremely difficult to kill. Pierc
ing tho brain does not seem to
cause tho lobster more than tern-
Cornry annoyance, sinco his
rain is a mere ganglion tho
size of n hempseed. Ho has to
be killed all over. To throw him
into boiling water fails to do
tho work olther mercifully or
quickly, since ho struggles vio
lently tD escape for about two
minutes. Tho nleasantest wav
to end a lobster's troubles. Mr.
Sinol finds, is tho old fashioned
way of placing him in cold
water and bringing him ton boil.
Girl of the mountains free,
Strong as tho forest tree,
Eyes like .the eagle's own, keen
as a sword.
Swift aro your buck skinned feet,
Just as tho great deer fleet,
Hunted by man for his wilder
ness board.
Great is your courage true,
Fear was not born in you,
Neither ofllnan, or of bcast,or
of bird.'!
Grand is your honesty,
Life is not plinntomsy,
Bravery: the armor, with which
1 you are 'gird.
Largo is your nature's store,
Knowledgo of wilds galore,
Simple your life in tho wood
land so fair.
You are the truest one
I take a lesson from.
Lifo is so hard, yet you falter
not thero.
You make your blessings go
lar as tho frosty snow,
When it is loosened from
heaven nbovo.
Girl of the mountains free.
Oh, that I we're like thee;
Learning the lessons of heav
enly love.
