battle OF life
The hymn OF the wounded, the beaten, who died
overwhelmed in the strife;
Not the jublant song OF the VictOTy, for whom the
resOunding acclaim
OF nations was lifted in chorus, whose brows wore
the chaplet OF fame
But the hymn of the low and the humble, the
weary, the broken in heart,
Who strove and who failed, acting bravely silent
and desperate part;
Whose youth bore no flower In its branches whose
hopes burned in ashes away.
From whose hands slipped the prize they had
grasped at, who stood at the dying OF day.
With the work OF their life all around them, I'M
pitied, unheeded, alone.
With death swoopilg down DER their failure, and
all but their faith Overthrown.
While the voice OF the world shouts its chorus, its
psean for those who have won
While the trumpet Is sounding triumphant, and
high to the breeze and the sun
Gay banners are waving, hands clapplng, and hur-
rying feet
Throngtng after the laurel crowned v1ctors-I
stand on the field Of defeat
In the shadow, 'mOngst those who are fallen and
wounded and dytng-and there
Chant requiem low, place my hand on their pain
knOtted brows, breathe prayer.
Hold the hand that IS hapless, and whisper, "They
only the victory win t-t
pushed the demon that tsmpts US within;
Who have held to their faith unseduced by the
prize that the world holds on high:
Who have dared for high cause to suffer, resist.
nght-n need be, to die"
Speak, history! Who are HES vfctorsf Unroll thy
long annals and say
Are they those whom the world called the victOrS,
who won the success of the day?

From Boston Special to Chicago Times.
Hamlet unused long over the problem. "to be.
or not to be ?" and finally decided that suicide
would, in all probability result i'm a greater
rather than less evil than any of the sings and
arrows which outrageous fortune NAV hurl at
men in this world. young man I'm the city-a
man who. according to his friends. possessed
- great force Of character. strong. sound sense,
high sense of honor. and remarkable self
control was quiet. reserved. gentle. unselhsh.
and untiring in patience and persistence y
came To a different conclusion yesterday and
coo!ly took his own life. suicides are of daily
and almost hourly occurrence. but this act de-
serves to attract widespread attention. The
actor in the tragedy was Samuel Il. Libby.
tnrty-three years of age. son OF a real estate
broker. a young man blessed with happy
home. good wife and child. and indeed for
tune in everything but health Within few
days his physician informed him that his death
from consumption was inevitable. ON Tuesday
he sat down and wrote 4 long letter To his
father. which is printed IN au evening paper In
the epistle. which is fall of expressions ol afiec
tionate regard. he says: You know my condi-
j ton ana circumstances. There seem Ia be two
ways before me. one Of which must take. Ii
Choose tie one shall wait the slow progress Of
disease that has reduced ne to what am until
after weeks and perhaps months of Illness and
distress during which | shall cause a much
misery Ia those who must sacrifice themselves
to care for me "a | endure myself. until. ali ma
ture exhausted. death shall close the scene |
believe this to he my prospect unless
. | choose the other way. BY this other
way shall avoid for myself and others
these days and weeks of misery. and allow TO
be given to useful and happy employment
all the time aud labor and care that would have
been devoted to the sick-rGom. Now. is there
. any sufficient reason why | should not pursue
this second way: | am convinced that there is
not. and that ii is not only my privilege but my
duty to do SO. While no mercful man deals
thus with the animals he has care of. can see
no reason Why a man should be required TO en-
dure TO the last moment which his breath can
be preserved the pains Of an incurabie maady.
In our present stage OF progress eXCsions and
/ amputaticnS are sometimes necessary. aud ia a
similar sense it is right and proper. sometimes
that mans days should be shortened | be-
leve it is what should Toe done in my own case
and have resolved that it shall be done" The
, arrangements for the fatal act were made with
the incest care and the greatest dclibaratiun.
The deed was done in private. the revolver
being so aimed that the body was not dis
! figured. and 10 needless fright was caused The
suicide s father and friends are represented; as
REGARDING the action as heroic. and if is not i'm
