The true salmon, like the true trout,
Is black spotted. It Is called In science
Salmo salar, and along with the true
trout It belongs to the genus Salmo,
There Is only one species of Atlantic

general commanding me hpaniKh-forces,
who promptly gave .orders that 'the cat
Should be court martin led and that the
sparrow should be Interred with mill
tyry, iiouprs., All, the, principal olllclals
and r.ldeut f 'lba were Invited to
the f uriWl, which tlie bishop of &lanz
was ordered to conduct. A bier was
prepared and the dead bird wait placed
on a bed of lilies and roses, the sorrow

to the sound of muffled drums and the
tramp of 6,0(10 following soldiers the
long procession wound Its way to the
outskirts of Havana, where the spar
row was laid to rest with full military
honors.
To find a parallel to this singular ho
mage paid to a bird one has to go back
nearly 2,000 years to the days of Clau
dius I., fourth Koman emperor, when
the death of a crow plunged all Kome
Into mourning. For many a year the
bird had been a great favorite of the
citizens and Its talent and tricks were
a constant topic of conversation. One
day, to the anger and grief of thou
sands, the bird was killed a crime
which cost the culprit his life and It
was decided to give the crow a "state'
funeral. The dead bird was borne to
Its grave by a couple of slaves, preceded
by , a military band playing mournful
music, and behind the corpse followed
thousands of mourners, Including the
most highly placed and the wealthiest
of Uonian citizens. New York Tribune,
James Jackson, a native of Devon
shire, England, came to the American
colonies In 1772 and engaged, in the
study of law In
Savannah. When the
war of the revolu
tion began, instead
of espousing the
English cause, as so
many of the colon
ists did, Jackson
took sides with the
patriots who were
fighting for liberty
and freedom from
unjust oppression.
He was active lu re
pelllng the British
jamks jackson, from the city of
Savannah In March, .1770, and com
manded a company until the Florida
expendltlon of (Jen, Howe.
Jackson was made brigade general
of tho Georgia nillltla In 1778 and was
severely wounded In the skirmish at
Midway, (la. His part in the defense,
of . Savannah was a noble one, and
when the city was ruptured he fled
to South Carolina, where he Joined
(Jen. Moultrie. HI appearance was so
wretched while In bis flight that he
was arrested by a party of whlgs
and condemned to be shot as a spy,
He was about to be executed when a
reputable citizen of Georgia Identified
him and saved his life. , '
Jackson was brigade general to Gen,
1'lckens, and at the battle of Cow-
pens shared In the glorious deeds of
lira very. After the: tdege of Augusta
he commanded a legionary corps which
did splendid service for the Georgians,
The State of Georgia so well appre-
dated his services that It presented

PRINCE 8AVED THE GOAT.
Wale Rescued tbe Utile Animal
from Three Lion C'nba.
A characteristic story Is being told
about the Prince of Wales during his
stay in India, says the London World,
It happened during his second visit to
Gwallor and after the unfortunate
abandonment of the Nepaul shikar.
The maharajah of Gwallor had. estab
lished some lion cubs lu an lnelosure
with the Idea of perpetuating the breed
and one morning the prince strolled out
with some members of his staff to see
them fed. He found them baiting an
unfortunate live goat, which they were
playing with as cats with a mouse, and
it was not at all a pleasant sight for
an English sportsman's eyes. By the
way, Jive animals are given to them
with the object of teaching them to
fend for themselves in their destined
future lives of freedom.
.After watching .the performance for a
while the prince suddenly exclaimed
"I can't stand this any longer. He's
Jolly plucky goat and'e must get him
out somehow." The question was how
to manage the resale, for it was not at
all an easy task to get the goat out of
an lnelosure In which some three-quar
ter grown lions were at large. How
ever, the fertile brain of Gen. Stuart
Beatson thought of a lassoo and the
work of salvage whs commenced.
They had just got .the noose over the
goat and were about to hoist him up.
when a lioness went for him In earn
est and It looked to be all up with him,
With the courage of despair he charged
her and sent her flying and before she
could pick herself up and return to the
attack the rope was over him and he
was hoisted up to safety.
On examination he was found to bav
escaped without injury, barring a slight
cut on one leg, and he now roams
about, a pensioner for life, adorned
with a massive silver collar with a
inscription explaining how the prince
saveu nis lire.

A story Is being , told among the
friends of General Samuel S. Sumner,
U. S. A., retired, who was until recently
the comhiilnding olllcer of the Pacific
division. General Sumner, who was in
Oakland for a stay, left the city after
the earthquake and went to San Ita

of the guiding spirits of the village that
he must aid In patrolling and guarding
against fire and unruly refugees. Some
thing in General Sumner's bearing ev
dently .Impressed the, man, for after
moment's thought he said : "I think I
make yoti a second lieutenant."
"Thank you," answered. General Sum

ferred upon me. ever pleased me nior

The four-year-old son of a certain

ion of the importance of bis father.
The latter tells how, on one occasion
In their western home, the lad came
across a magazine in which, by some
chance, there were engraved side by
side portraits of tbe President and
the Senator mentioned. ' '
When the lad caught sight of his
father's features he broke Into a broad
smile. "That's a good picture of you,
daddy," said he.
"Very good, my son."
"Who's the man next to you, daddy?"
asked the youngster.
"Why, my son!" exclaimed the Sen
ator, "don't you know? That is one of
the greatest men of the world, a man
more admirable and more powerful
than any king. That, my son, is Presi
dent Roosevelt."
The lad again looked at the picture
of the President. Then, after a thought
ful pause, he observed :
"Say, daddy, the people in the east
will be awful proud when they see the
President's picture next to yours, won't
they?" American Spectator.
