Fireworks which were scheduled for the Fousth wers not & bit diminished by the postponement of the July meeting of the court of common council. The fafl- ure to confirm the action of the Water board in the selection of fhe president, however, caused less surprise than the astlon of the beard at the time of its organization, and the council has simply tahen action In keeping with its stand ef & year ago It was last summer that conditions were revealed I eonnsction With the sofiftmet of the water department where- by the well known wood catting sperd- tions were disclosed.

And to this abandonment of ita position there must be credited the persittent stand that has been taken by the house for the elimi- nation of certain features which it was not believed nacessary at this time In providing for the adaquate protaction of the nation through the army and navy. Anothar reasen wak the strong de- mand that has prevailed from one end of the country to the other for the exer. cise of economy in the spending of gov- ermment momey that it might be reflected n curtailed taxation, It is never well to disregard interna. tional conditions in providing for our de- fense. We cannot sidetrack preparedness ts the peint where it would menace our safety but there are times when there s reason for a more generous indulgence n such work than At othérs. Oné of he ways ‘n which it has been postible to greatly curtall expenditures without crippling the country's defensé has baen by the cutting down of the appropria- tions for army and navy putposes. The senate has been oblized to yleld to the ouse in each Instance and as the result he raising of much less revenne will bs required. It is putting a part of the scomomy that has been called for in dealing with the many demands made upon the government but it is in keeping with what the country has called for and what the administration believed necessary. We may not have been long At neace but hostilities have been ended sufficlently long to warrant the use of « money for army and naval purposes and that ia what the senate hag decided to accept bepause of the insistence mani- tested by the house mpo nthat point. GOVERNMENT ENCOURAGEMENT. In other directions it is feit that every little bit helps, and such without unduly stretching the imagination may ba the view taken of the sum of nearly $43,000 which has been provided by congress for the purvose of profecting the forests of New FEngland from fire during the en- suing year. Suéh An amount spread over six states, éven though the most of them are small in eompirison with same of the others, doesn'l mean that s great deal of protection can be given in any 6ne of the commonwealths. But thers is the satisfaction that it fmeans a start in the right direction, thAt the govern- ment recognizes the nesd of taking an important hand n the work and that it #hould serve as an inspiration to the re- speetive states to put ferth greater ef- forts in their behalf. This appropriation, wWilch amounts to $460,000 for the entire country, is made with the understanding that whatever Amount is used in a staté a similar sum at least will be furnished by that state. The Importance of protecting the wood- land of any eommonwealth ought to be safficiently ‘recognized for (hose respec- tive states to emgage In the protéction A2 their 6Wn intevests.

ODD iNCIDENTS IN AMERICAN HISTORY Lo e e e THE BATTLEFIELD OF TIPPECA- NOE The Battlefield of the famous Tip- pecanoe fight is almost exactly today a& Harrison described it in his repert of the batile—"a piece of dry oak Jand rising about ten feet above the ‘level of a marshy prairie in front, toward the Prophet's Town, and nearly twice that helgth above a similar prairie in the rear, though which and near to this bank ran a small stream clothed with willows and other brushwood, Toward the left bank this bench of land widened considerably, but beéame gradually narrower in the spposite di- rection and at the distance of one hun- dred and fifty yards from the right flank terminated in an abrupt poifit.”’ It was at this battle of Tippecanoe in 1811 that William Henry Hafrison broke the power of the Indian chief Tectmseh’s confereracy, and gained that military renown which later won for his the pretidency. The scene of the battle is_oniy seven milés from Lafayétte, Ind,, and is today reached by a trolley along the rapidly rolling Wabash. Opposite the battleground the Indl- ana Methodists have & summer én- campment. The state has placed an| iron fence around the battlefield and undér the spread-eagle above the arched entrance is the single inserip- tion “Battle of Tippeconoe, Novémber 7, 1811.” A fine monument has also beén erected by the state to commem- orate the event. This location was adfirably suited for an ambuscade, as the Prophet had noted when he sélected it.

All throdgh the summer of 1811 and before Harrison's =couts were bring- ing in rumors of a great league or eonfederation of the Northwestérn In- dians being formed by two Shawnee brothers known as Tecumseh and the Prophet. Tecumseh this summer went South to enlist his mother's péople, the Créeks And ailied tribes, ahd his mother the Prophet, a religious fana- tic, proceeded to play the mischief with all his plans. Before these were ripe the latter gathered at the village, & short dis- tafice above the present battlegrounds, 4 body of Indians as large as to con | stitute a menace to the territory, and he marched up the river with 900 men to give them battle and dispersé them. They were all well trained Indian tighters, Upon the arrival of the troops, theé Prophet asked Marrison for an arm- jstice until the nét day and suggested an encampment for the night on thé oak ridge. But Harrison Wwas nét A Brad@dock to be caught by Indian wiles, and suspécting treachery, he ordered every man to sleep on his arms, and in such order that on springing up he would naturally fall inte ranks. A placed double line of sentinals was around the camp. The night Wwas black as Erébus.
