An ancient controversy has been re- vived by the published story of the death in Dumfriesshire, Scotland, of a@ trout which for 20 years had su vived in a well. The fish was caught in an adjoining streain—the River Evan, a tributary of the Annan, near Moffat, and was Placed in a well formed in a burn ad- jacent to a remote railway signal box. a few miles north of Beattock, on the Caledonina main Mne. The signalman who at the time was in charge of the cabin took a lively interest in the fish, as did also various engine drivers and other railway workers on that section of the line, when jinterva!s permitted of their visiting the “aquarium,” with its solitary occupant. The trout grad. ually became quite tame and docile, and was accustomed to swim boldly to the edge of the well to receive tit- bits from visitors in the form of worms or insects suituble to its appetite. It is still argued by some authorities that unless some accident befalls him, a trout lives on indefinitely. Opponents of that theory find sup- port In the account of the death of the Scotch trout for their opinion that all fish, even the members of the princely salmon or trout class, have their ap pointed span of life. Old Printer a Wonder. There was Old Limerick, an old man since.first known, and the boys used to say he was not only born an} he! old man but was fighting when first saw the Nght. He would work until a few dollars were due him, and on this would raise enough to get drunk, and when drunk he was worse than a cowpen full of wildcats. He was In bad with the police of every city in the South, and at that time there wasn't a policeman in this coun- ty who had not at some time or other been scratched or bitten by him. Crippled though heewas he was a match for a squad, and it was never until he was beaten to a pulp that he could be put Into a black maria.

Arlington. Arlington, for long the home of the {llustrious southern soldier, Robert EB. Lee, is a historic home that creates | sense of intimacy with history, but in less degree due, no doubt, to the fact that only the shell of that benuti- ful example of Greek architecture re- mains today, the residence having lost much of its “home” through being denuded of furniture and partially closed. But who can traverse its halls or stand in its high vaulted rooms without rerending in clearer | memoty the story of the great men and women who once lived beneath its | roof?

He is an honest and strong man. I do not believe that he is playing into the hands of the Japanese as people in Ameri ‘© inclined to believe. He is a Russian and a patriot. His meth- ods are ruthless, but his purpose is to fight the Bolsheviki and save the world from their clutches. The Kolchak armies are fighting on p defensive. Until they are given supplies by the allies, they will not be wble to take the offensive, Their grent contribution to the peace of the world nt present is that they are preventing the spread of Bolshevism into the orient. iia} The t Bolsheviki in Russia have They know that they have failed. It is only a matter of time before the peasants, who are disillu- | sioned and bitter, uprise once more and annihilate the Bolshevik government. When that happens what will the lead- ers of Bolshevism do? Russia is al- ready looted and impoverished. ‘There is little more to gain by holding the power in Russia, Their obvious aim is to find new worlds to conquer.

Nothing stands be- tween the western nations and such a catastrophe except the thin wavering line of the Kolchak forces. “There are Chinese in the Bolshevik armies, These men were paid 10,000 rubles apiece in paper money for tak- ing Omsk. The city presented a pic- ture of desolation and horror un- matched in the entire war, after it had been looted by the Chinese mercenaries. These men are’ anxious to return to their own homes and they have been rght to believe that the only thing which prevents their returning is the Kolchak armies. Once they break through they will return to China to spread Bolshevik doctrines from one end of the orient to the other, “If Bolshevism can be kept isolated in Russia, it will wear itself out by its own excesses. Bolshevism is like a sickness preying upon the weak and ig- norant. By cutting off the territory occupied by the Bolsheviki by means of military force, the disease will wear itself out. Governments are slow mov- ing, but there is one thing which can be done by the people of America im- intely, Behind the Kolchak army p is another pitiful army of ref- ugees, Hundreds of thousands of peo- ple have fled out of Bolsheviki Russia into Siberia.

Aronld, \N. S. Jackson, an English officer and well known athlete; Sergeant Linton Hewitt, a soldier who, prior to the war, had done much for |nthletics in Australia, and Charles B. ,Cochran, an English promoter , of? pro- fessional sports. All three believe, he says, that the international Olympic committee made a great mistake in deciding to hold games this yenr and that it will be impossible to reorganize the sport in \suificient meastre to enable Great | Britain to be adequately represented at Antwerp. In order to save the British prestige from the injury it sustained at Stockholm it will be necessary to spare no effort in securing the best Possible team and make a united at- tempt to improve the British athletic standing. With this object in view he writes: “All three agree that up to now the attempts at organizing Olympic teams have been a failure, and that to. get the best of our goods on show at Ant- werp next year we must strike out_on fresh lines. Also there is a general jdea that instead of leaving the organiz- ing side, and especially the financial end of it, in the hands of a scratch col- lection, we should call in’ the best brains of the nation, the best business men, to assist in devising a sound plan of ARATE STATE IS ASKED BY est: (By Associated Press.)
