The Evening World said the other derstand the difference between communism, socialism and anarch- ism. It is often incorrectly asserted that socialism teaches the equal di- vision of property and that under Socialism all the wealth of the community would be evenly distributed per capita. This is akin to a like incorrect statement that anarchism is a sort of a school for instruction in the throwing of explosive bombs. Neither anarchism nor socialism advocates the equal division or the common ownership of all property, That is what communism advocates. Communism has heen tried several times in the United States by men and women of high character and great intellectual capacity. The Tate Charles A. Dana was at one time a member of a communistic com- munity. The Shaker colonies at Lebanon and west of Albany, the} He pointed out what, | Oneida community, various settlements in Pennsylvania and in the Mid-| dle Western States have practised communism for a long time.

The children| are raised and cared for by the community, as are the sick and aged and/ infirm. Food is furnished to all according to their needs, and work is. required from all according to their capacity. | Clothes are uniform, with distinotions of sex amd size. The food! is uniform, the quantity varying according to appetite. Work is compul-| sory and leisure hours are regulated, And yet human nature is such that the recruits to these communities |’ are few and the truants are many. The children break away from the communal life to go into the out- side world of struggling ambition and disappointed hopes. Why do not some anarchists and socialists form communities of their own, where they can run things their own way, and see how these experiments result? No law and nobody would pre- vent them from trying experiments with themselves as the communists have. prosperity, peace and contentment, would make more converts to either socialism or anarchy than all the bombs of the past century. | IN SUNDAY’S WORLD. ‘All Roman Catholics will be interested in the illustrated account of | the plans for the celebration of the jubilee of New York’s diocese, which begins April 26.

The combatants were Andrew Jackson and the famous statesman Thomas H. Benton. Jackson quarrelled with Bentca in an upper room of the tavern and proceeded to horsewhip him. Benton fought back. The friends of both parties joined in. Jackson got a bullet wound in the shoulder. Benton was thrown down a flight of stairs. later the pair be came good friends and remained so all tholr lives. This was but one of several odd means wheroby Jackson kept himselt in the public eye in those days. Another sensational feat had occurred @ few months earlier. With 2,000 of the men he had raised for national de fense he had marched to Natchez, by order of the War Department. Thema War Secretary Armstrong, believing the British would not invade that som tion, commanded Jackson to disband his little army. Jackson angixs re | tused to obey and marched his men back home with flying colors. For | thie stubbornness, as well as for personal toughness and endurance, he won from his rough soldiers the nickname of ‘Old Hickory.” Before Jackson had recovered from the bullet wound received in the Benton fight, the Creek Indians rose in a body—urged, it is said, wy British emissaries—and declared war on the American settlers in the far South. The half-breed Creek, Weathersford, with 1,900 warriors, massacre4 on Aug. 30, 1813, move than 400 settlers and soldiers @t 7 Winsthe | Fort Mimms, Ala. Still weak and suffering from ‘his Creek War. wound, Jackson marched into the Southern wilderness ‘6 i with 2,500 inflitiamen to crush the Creeks. His men mutinied, food ran short, the journey was blocked by almost !mpassable obstacles. Yet Jackson, brutally twave, skilful and over- bearing, brushed every difficulty aside; forced his way through the heart of the hostile forest into a tract known to the Indians as “Holy Ground,” where it had been prophesied no white man could live to set foot, smeshed the Creek power in two flerce battles and made Weathersford a prisoner. Two of Jackson's frontier officers in this Creek War were to be heard from later. They were Sam Houston and Davy Crockett. The British chances of victory were greatly lessened by the rout of their red allies. The future President was already beginning to wipe out his debt of hate agsinet Eng land. The next year the British, by consent of Spain (which then owne® lorida), made Pensacola, Fla., one of their Southern headquarters. Thence they could ravage American possessions and retreat if necessary to the safe neutrality of Spanish soll. It was a clever trick. To put a stop to It in ordinary fashion months of long, stupid negotiations would have been necessary. But that was not Jackson's way. By this time he had been ' promoted to be Major-General and was in charge of the Department of the South. He asked Government leave to invade Florida and drive out the British. No answer was given to his request. So, as usual, he took the situation into his own hands. The Britlsh attacked Mobile on Sept. 14 1814. Jackeon drove them away. They fell back to the safety of Pensacola, But to their amazement Jackson, Instead of stopping at the Spanish fron- | tier, crossed with 3,000 men, invaded Florida, stormed Pensacola and | marched on Fort Barrancas, which guarded the harbor where the British fleet lay. The flying British blew up the fort and fled to their ships. Jack- son had literally chased them into the sea. By invading Florida he had risked war with Spain. The conservative element in America denounced him, and all sorts of punishment were threatened. To threats and blame alike Jackson was deaf. He was already hurry- ing to New Orleans, having heard of an intended British advance on that city. Reaching New Orleans, Jackson found the place in disordered pante lover the coming attack. He had no right, technically, to claim | charge of the munteipal government, But he did so, assuming the office lof dictator, overruling the Mayor and Council], taking all affairs of clvio | business into his own hands and arranging with consummate skil! for the defense. The Britieh—12,000 veterans under the Duke of Wellington's brother-in-law, Sir Edwaid Pakenham—landed near New Orleans, with the fdea of seizing permanently for Great Britain the Lower Mississippi region. On Jackson hung the future of the Far South. He had under his command less than 6,000 men—most of them raw militia, trappers, farmers, shopkeepers and backwoodsmen. Pakenham found Jackson's little force disputing his march to New Orleans lined wp behind a barricade of cotton bales and sandbags. The Americans did not fire until the Britieh were within short rifle range. Then they poured forth a series of volleys so accurate that the British regula: who had conquered Napoleon's bravest legions, scatte and fied in wild retreat to their fleet, leaving nearly 2,600 dead and wounded on the fileld. Packenham himself was slain. The American loss in killed | wounded was 21 [aaa was the greatest victory of Its eort In history. Truly, Jackson ha@ patd in blood for the sword-cut he had received as a boy.
