Salt Lake City, Utah, Aug. 11. Forty-four departments of the Grand Army of the Republic, escorted by the Fifteenth United States Infantry and the National Guard of Utah and fol- Comm.inder -in Chief Nevlus. lowed by the Naval Veterans, the Ex Unlon Prisoners of War, the Army NtUiM In carriages, the Sons of Vet ernns find the women's organizations allied to the Grand Army, inarched to-duy in the parade that was the cul initialing feature of the forty-third na tional encampment. Many military bands and fife and drum corps made the music to which the old warriors kept step. The procession lornied at Kagle (Jute, which is one ol Salt Luke City's many picturesque features. At the word of command the parade matched west on Main street and turned south down that thoroughfare, proceedinn seven blocks between solid walls of cheering men, women and children. As the grizzled veterans passed the enthusiasm wa.i tremen dous and many a spectator wept un ashamed as he reull.cd that this was undoubtedly the last gland review for scores ol the feeble heroes who trudged along with eyes on the flag for which they had given some of the best years of their lives. When Seventh South street was reached the paraders themselves broke out in mighty cheering, for there they turned In front of the moat beautiful feature of the day. the "LIt lug Flag." On au immense stand were 2,600 children dressed In the national colors an. so arranged that tiiey made a perfect, representation of a waving American Hag. The little ones llgj In aUllltd W many weeks, and while the old sol diers passed they sang patriotic airs. Reviewed by Notablea. Countermarching, the parade now moved north on Main street back to South Temple street. Here, Just to the left of the Urigham Young pioneer monument and close to Temple square, the reviewing Btand had been erected. It was occupied by Commander-in-Chief Henry M. Nevlus, Gov. William Spry of Utah, the chief executives of other states and a large number of other officials and distinguished guests. The parading bodies all passed in review, saluting those in the stand, and at once disbanded. Ail the bands as they arrived here were massed close to the stand and as the culmination of the parade, 4,000 Hchool children marched by, the united bands playing and the children singing "On ward, Christian SoldlerB." Salt Lake City has thrown open her arms to the old soldiers, and never has the Grand Army been more en thusiastically received or more gener ously entertained than at this en campment. The old soldiers have been very carefully looked after by the local committee on public comfort and pri vate accommodations, and at the 24 information bureaus at the various railway stations and convenient places about the city. During the entire time of the encampment these committees have hail the services of 300 high school cadets, whose duties have been to render every possible assistance to the visitors. Henry M. NevltiH, the commander-ln chief, arrived here Saturday with his staff and Inspected the arrangements. On Sunday the city's guests began ar riving by the thousand, and on Mon day they came in so fast that the com mittee had to work like sailors to get them all housed in such a manner as to avoid congestion in any part of the city. Big "Greotings" Meeting. Monday evening came the first pub lic event on tho program a great camp-fire In the assembly hall in the Temple grounds. All that night and throughout Tuesday the stream of ar rivals continued, but. by Tuesday evening practically all the visitors had been received and distributed. That night the greatest function of the en campment took plnce. This was the "Greetings" meeting in the Mormon Tabernucle. The immense building easily seats 10,000 persons, and it was filled to its capacity. Col. Frank M.

Smythe, commander of the depart ment of Utah, all of whom told In elo quent words how proud they were to welcome to the state and city the Grand Army and their friends. Mr King then Introduced Commander-in-Chief Nevlus, who was received with wild cheering and the waving of hats and handkerchiefs. As soon as the tumult had subsided, Command er Nevlus delivered a graceful re sponse to the welcoming speches and took the chair. Then came the turn of the allied or ganizations and greetings to the vet erans were uttered by President Gene vieve llagar longtlold Lane of the La-die-, or the O. A. H , President Mary E.

PLAGUE ON COAST VICTIM SUPPOSED TO HAVE CON TRACTED DISEASE HANDLING GROUND SQUIRRELS. Vigorous Effort Will Be Made By the Health Officials to Exterminate These Infection Carrying Rodents. Sacramento, Cal The discovery a few days ago of nn authentlcaled case of bubonic plague In Sunola. Alameda county, has inspired the state board of health to renewed activity in the campaign against the ground squirrel In that and adjacent couniies. At a meeting of the Umrd it was Je llied to prosecute the work with more vigor than heretolore in an effort to exterminate these infection-carrying rodents Joseph Mendoza, the youth who Is 111 with the plague in the Alameda hos pital, is supposed to have contracted the disease through eating or hanlling infected squirrels killed by him on a hunting trip. Thousands of squirrels have been killed or caught by hunters in the em ploy of the marine hospital service, and bacteriological examination lias demonstrated the existence of plague among them, but not to nn alarming extent The effort of these officials Is now being directed largely to the dis covery of an efficient method of squir rel extermination, and some interest ing experiments are being nitnle to this end. POWERS WILL TAKE A HAND. Greek Flag Must Not Be Hoisted Over Any Public Building in Crete. London. The acute stage reached In the dispute between Turkey and (J recce over Crete is causing anxiety In the European capitals such as al ways accompanies diplomatic difficulty In that quarter. However, as M. Is wolsky, the Russian loreign minister, said at Cowes, if there is any awkward development in the situation, Europe will see that no mischievous results are reached. From the latest reports It appears that Turkey has not presented any thing in the form of an ultimatum to i.reece, but has confined herself tc verbal proiests, while the four protect ing powers are luaUing energetic rci resentations both to Constantinople and to Athens to secure an amicable arrangement of the dispute. The lour powers insist that under no cir cumstances shall the Greek Hug be hoisted over any public building in Crete and the foreign consuls at Cain a have i n Inatructed to Impress this on the Cretan authorities.

Western Writer Pays Tribute to Railroad Magnate as Builder Up of the Country. Mr. Edward H. Harrlman la on a trip to Europe. Ordinarily there would need be nothing added to this announcement beyond an exhortation to Emperor William to chain down his railroads and to other monarchs to put their crowns and other valuables in the Bafe at night. Rut Mr. Harrl man is going off on a pleasure trip, and so many mean things have been said about him that it will not hurt .mm to change the tune a moment ! while he is out of the country and not able to take any advantage of . the lapse from the cold attitude of se verity that Is usually used In men tioning the name of Harrlman. Of all the great railroad men de veloped In this generation, E. H Har rlman is easily in biggest and the best, says a writer In the Hutchinson (Kan.) Daily News. The head of a railroad Company, under the rules of the game, must work for his stock holders, whether It Is for the advan tage of politicians, shippers or con sumers. It is his job to do the best he can for the Interests entrusted to his care. Harriman is not only a linnncier, but he is a builder and an operator. Lucky is the town, city or community that has a Hariinian road. He insists on a good roadbed, level track, safe track and the con venience nnd comfort of the traveler and the shipper. The Hnrrimun roads are noted as the best in the coun try. When Hairiinan gets hold of a one-horse or played out track and right of way he proceeds to put It in first class condition. He does not raise the rates of fares, although he doubtless charges "a plenty," but he Insists that enough of the funds go Into real improvements to make a railroad. And that Is where he stands ahead of a good many others and why Hurrlmanism is not such a bad thing as some people have been led to think. He makes better railroads, and there is more need for improvement that way than there is In some others which are being discussed. So far as we can see, he believes in giving every interest along his road a fair deal. He is a public benefactor from that standpoint. He uses his power fairly. He is a great man, and ns good or better than the ordinary citizen who looks upon him ns the personification of the money power, seeking whom It may devour. He is a strong man in the flnnnclal world, but that should not be ngainst him, when the finan cial world Is the object which most of ub want to reach. He Is a good American and he spends his money on American railroads, not on foreign titles, race horses, old editions or v, other bad habits. If he is not per- f feet and we don't think he Is he is no exception to the rule and Is worthy of the praise of his fellow citizens for the good he does and has done. Laughter a Series cf Barks. Laughing Is barking, say the sci entists. The neck and head are thrown back while a series of short barks are emitted from the throat. However musical the barks may be, they are barks. The laugh begins with a FUdden and violent contraction of the muscles of the chest and ab domen. But instead of opening to let the air pass out of the lungs, the vocal cords approach each other and hold It back. Rut they are not Btrong enough to exercise such opposition for more than an Instant, nnd the air, which is under pressure, promptly escapes As It does so it makes the vocal cords vi brate producing the bark. This obstruction and liberation of the air expelled from the lungs repents Itself again and again at intervals of a quarter of a second. There are thus in a hearty laugh four barks a second, and if continued, they go on at that rate as long as the air reserve In the lungs holds out. The empty lungs must then fill themselves, and this in terval is marked by a quick gasp for breath, after which the barks are re newed. The barks occur in series with gasps for breath at Intervals. When laughter Is violent, the entire body participates The upper part of the trunk bends and straightens itself alternately or sways to right and left. The feet stamp on the floor, while the hands are pressed upon the loins to moderate the painful spasm Interviewing the Professor. "So you don't think Mars would re ply, even If we dhT send signals"' "I am almost convinced that there would be no response," answered Prof Thtnktuiu, adjusting his glasses "Then you don't believe that Mars Is inhabited?" "On the contrary, I think It ex tremely probable that life similar to our own exists on the K,,. ,.in, "Hut you don't give those people credit for Intelligence ,., (o mlnj?.. "Yes.
