Most of those who heard the trial were of the opinfon that the court would be compelled to reduce the amount set opposite the electrical ma- chinery in the Sadd building, and their | g, judgment was upheld by the result. The town was upheld in most of the items, but Mr. Sadd undoubtedly ob- tained a reduction, which is what he was fighting for. I. 0. O, F. Election.

The Emeralds, who run a star bas- ketball team in the winter months, and try their hand at basebail during the summer months, have made an- nouncement, through Manager Mc- Carthy of their plans for this year. Arrangements: have been made with Alderman Charles M, Holbrook for the HON, HENRY GASSAWAY DAVIS, Who Was a Brakeman and Became United States Senator. If Henry Davis had an inkling of what the futuré held for him when he left school to become a brakeman, he did not show it except in a grim determination to hold his job and save a part of his monthly pay. He did so well on the “boxes™ and “flats” tha he was soon made a conductor; turned in so many fares that he was given a station on the B, & O, and while there used his savings to pur- chase an interest in a store and small coal mine at Piedmont, W.

(Special to The Bulletin.) Washington. D. C.. Julv 1.—Cannon awakening the achoes over Tlium's plainsk where the allies are trying to pound their way beyond the Dar- danelles, stir many legendary memo- ries of this historic battle region and bring to mind the oddest contrasts. Here, where now modern ordnance is hurling its messengers of destruc- tion, Homer's herves waged their spectacular, single-handed combats, while admiring armies grouped them- selves around to watch. It is a far cry from the romantic siege of Troy to the terribly impersonal battle of today. Yet the old walls of Troy must bring some sort of inspiration to the soldiers fighting in their shadows: sol- ers of the allies or of the Turks. Ex- cavated Illlum beside the present wars great battlefield is described in a communication to the National Geographic society by Jacob E. Con- ner. He says: "1{10 Trojan walls are stiil in evidence: those same walls that defied- the onsiaughts of Aga- memnon and Menelaus, of Ajax, Nes- tor, Diomed, Ulysses and Achilies, to fali at last by stratagem. They re- main a& a ruined and abandoned stage minus its paraphernalia, whereon was played S0 many centuries ago an in- significant little drama compared with modern events; but it was a drama so big with human interest divinely told that the world has never known its equ: .

Splendid basis for all sorts of o fight for an ideal. Hence the Homeric warfare was a beautiful, a poetic pas- time, seriously resulting to some Bae- py few, who were thenceforth reward- ed with immortoil “As the theatre est epic poem, Troy des any year, overy year. In the thoushts and emotions it revives and stimu- lates, in the aroused sense of indebt- edness of all subsequent literature and art, it richly repays a visit. The claswzal student will leave it in a daze of meditation upon things more real to him than the actual things he has seen and touched.” On the site where the German savant Schliemann unearthed Homer's Troy, nine layers of old-time cities were found. one above the other. They were builded, destroyed, and forgotten here during the more than 5,000 years that civilization has lived upon the products of the fertile valley. The topmost lay- er contained the remains of the Roman city of Illum; two Hellenic vil were found directly beneath it, which flourished here between 1000 B. C. and the Christian era. The sixth city from the bottom was determined e Troy. The bottom layers contained th remains of prehistoric settlements, un- important villages that have escaped every memory except these few, uncov- ered, decaying stones. In the Second or Burnt City, probably 800 years b fore the time of Troy, was found considerable mass of buried treasu silver jars, gold fully wrought dal: scribing the country around Troy, Mr. Conner continu “Yonder the summit of Mt Ida, where the gods in solemn conclave s0 often sat, where ‘cloud-compelling Zeus' sometimes ‘thought two waye in his mind at once,’ or else ended all de- bate with a nod that shook high Olym- Pus and caused the heavens to rever- berate and glow with the flash of his thunderbolt. “Away over- yonder, skirting the ridge of Illlum, is Simois’ stream, or should be; the bridge across it shows upon our approach that modern Stmofs is no more than a creek. Worse | than that, following its attenuated course, less than a mile downstream, we discover that it ends in a moress instead of joiming the Scamander as of yore. And the latter stream is scarce- 1y less disappointing, for it is no more scarcely boast of banks except at oc- casional intervals, for both streams are now only broad swales merging with the adjacent plain, with mo continuous current toward the sea except in sea- sons of high water, if such are ever known. “And such beautiful plains! They were well worth fighting for, gently undulating as they retreat from the former river courses, and most like, cultivated places for peaceful abode. Little rounded oak trees are studded about the plain in solitary, in- dependent fashion—oak trees resem- "”";g apple trees in size and periphery. “Behold the ruins at last! A long, low ridge, some four or five miles in length ends abruptly like a promontory projecting into_the sea, above which it rises about 30 feet.
