the bridge was lifted from its piers and
thrown into the stream as if it had been

bridge, placed there for expansion and
contraction, were IN place and not a
scratch was noticed on the piers. How
the mere force of wind could have hurled
the bridge from its foundations is beyond
comprehension. 1t must have been
peculiar freak of electricity.

NOTES FROM OUR NEIGHBoRs.


To the Editor OF the Eagle
Decoration day was well observed here
The civic societies were out: hundreds OF
carriages with thousands Of people went
10 the cemetery. The weather was all
that could be desired. and there were no
accidents OF serious nature.
Late thIs evening il is raining gently.
We have enjoyed very timely and ccpi-
Gus rains throughout the spring, to the
great benefit of the crops AID encourage
nent Of the farmers. Rye and wheat
are headed out, and viii IN a few days
be ready for the harvest Oats VIII
make, barring accidents. a fun crop. and
corn IS looking well, though small owing
TO the cool weather. There Is a much
larger acreage planted this year thar ever
before OF all crops except wheat.

all that, never realizing that not one
half of the people of North America even
speak the English language, and our
sister republic of Mexico is nearly as big
as ourselves and good deal older. Ii Is
not realized by one star-spangled fellow
in thousand that he can jump on a
train at his town depot and before the
end of the week travel back from one to
four thousand years and be with civil
Hzation of millions Of people, in a land
of perpetual summer, and civilization
which in all respects, down to the small
est detail, is that OF RameSes. heightened
and strengthened only by the Roman
church whose conquest has proved trlb-
ute of religion which has lifted this people
from a religion of human sacrifices TO
the worship of the Unseen Spirit, to
whose glory has gone the wealth of all
their generations into the magnificent
places of worship whose domes and
steeples glitter in every valley of this
vast domain.
But the afternoon is waning and in a
few minutes we will be at Queretaro, the
place of MaXimillian's execution, which
we are to take in, but we said we
wouldn't write history and we won't.
It's awfully hot and the cars jump about
so that dozen words to the page makes
a fair average, while every half minute
somebody is yelling out look! oh, look!'
at some new wonder of this land of
strange peoples and many wonders.
In sixteen hours more we expect TO
sail into the City of Mexico, from whence
if we don't conclude that these scrib
blings will only bore our intelligent read
ers, we may write some more.

The EAGLE does not aspire to distinc-

the popular demands for this character
of information, as well as others, and
strives to meet the expectations of its
readers, as witness its Geographic re-

The little mallet incident in the In
dianapolis convention Wednesday no
doubt tickled the vanity of the saint
ank, but if they expect to help their

evidently giving crankism credit for

can people than there is demonstrable
evidence to so much as suspect.

The theological teachings Of today,
encouraged by the cathalibity OF spirit
and liberality of sentiment that pervade
the community produces now and then
almost as great divergence in the re-
ligious world as the incongruvialities of
politics do the secular For over score of
years James Woodrow. D. d. was Perkins
professor in the southern Presbyterian
theological seminary at Columbus, S. c.
His duty as such was to lecture on the
relation between natural science and re-
vealed religion. He was ousted from his
chair some time ago, after a stubborn
fight, for teaching that the body of Adam
was probably a product of evolution and
not an immediate creation out of the dust
of the earth. Year before last his pres
bytery Augusta acquitted hun on
charge of heresv. The prosecutor took
an appeal 10 the synod of Georgia, which
reversed the presbytery decision. Now
the general assembly at Baltimore, by a
nearly three-to-one voice, refuses 10 sus-
tain DR.. Woodrows appeal from the
synod. but the moderator Is ar pains to
point out that this acton does not affect
the doctors standing as a Presbyterian
m'niSter-which seems rather queer.

The event of SATURDAYS session of the
Presbyterian general assembly at Phila-
delphia was the seemingly unanimous
adoption OF report setting forth the full
confidence of the body in the soundneSs
of the southern Presbyterians in the
faith, declaring its desire and readiness
for corporate reunion, and continuing
the committee of conference on the sub
ject. News of thiS action was at once
wired to the general assembly at Balti-
more. This was indeed gratifying 10
the advocates of church union and en-
couraging to those who favor and look
forward TO practical Christian unity. Bat
the poetry of the situation was pretty
nearly all knocked out when later in the
day, DR.. Howard Crosby protested
against report of the committee on
temperance advising the exclusion of all
liquor sellers from Presbyterian church
membership. He wanted an exception
made IN favor Of dealers IN light ewines.

been degree of improvement and pros
perity among all classes of the people
which, notwithstanding the losses of a
great civil war and the burden Of an I'M
exampled public debt, has found no
parallel in the history of this or any

In his latest interview Bonlanger an
nounced that events having pushed him
to the front in France, he is going TO
stay there until his work is done. and
that he is ready to go all lengths to do
it. His work, it appears, includes not
only the dissolution of the present cham
Der and the revision of the constitution,
but also a reform of the social laws and
manners-whateye this may mean He
hopes to achieve his task without having
to smash things, but he finds it already
difficult, he says, ito hold back his i'm
petuous friends" the most impetuous
trusted among them being the redoubt-
able general himself. 1t hatters a man
to be cognizant of the fact that the ewes
of the world are upon him, and while the
world is not much given to fiattery, in
his instance it can't help it. There is
a great deal of biguess stored up in the
events of the near future for the Eastern
Hemisphere.

The defeat of a conservative member
at Southampton the other day was a
hard blow to the tory cause. That part
of England has been regarded as reliably
safe for the government candidate, but
when the principle of Home Rule was
put squarely at issue the electors deter
mined to put their disapproval of the
government policy SO stronly that no
mistake could be made. They defeated
the anti-home rule candidate in strong
conservative community. The tory pa
pers Of London concede that this defeat
is disastrous and significant of great
danger to the tory cause hereafter. There
is belief in many of the most thought
full and best posted English statesmen
that the government is steadily losing
ground in its fight against Ireland and
that the cause of Home Rule is steadily
gaining. If the friends of Ireland have
the wisdom to pursue their campaign
with discretion but with unflagging zeal
they will in due time see the triumph of
their principles and the accomplishment
of their desires.

Democratic papers east profess no little
surprise that there should be a Republi-
can representation in congress from a
New York City district who favors the
free trade idioms of their party. In their
qualification at the circumstance they
seem to forget that the business com
munity Of New York City is made up
largely OF importers who care great
deal more about putting money into
their pockets by their import, trade than
they ID for the general welfare of the
country. As result of this condition it
is rare thing for Republican to be
elected TO congress from New York
City, and when it does occur it may be
set down that his views are in accord
with those of the importers of that city.

If the prediction of Mr.. Pillsbury, the
great wheat man of Minneapolis, that
that cereal Twill soon look cheap at one

looks probable, the present prospect for

hind the barn and kicking themselves
for not putting larger acreage to seed

Several acres of ground near Tappan,
in Rockland county, New York, were
sold the other day at an average price of
$50 an acre. The land is historic from
the fact that it was there that Major
Andre was executed as spy during the
revolutionary war. The fact that it was
Andre who died there for his crime in
attempting to stimulate treason, invests
the land with notoriety, but with no
pride of sacred character. The land ad-
Joining it contains the relics of Wash
ington's headquarters. II is famous and
honored as the abiding place for time
of the immortal Washington. The land
is almost priceless in value. Land that
has been stained with the blood of trea-
son possesses cheap value wherever it is
situated. But land that has been CON
secra0ed by the presence of patriots and
honored by the tread of Washington is
valuable almost beyond price. That is
the way the American people look upon
Washington and Andre.

According to the Detroit Free Press,
seven of the men who struck ON the
Burlington road have committed suicide
because of their inability to secure work
and many Of the engineers have lost
the homes which they were gradually
paying for out of their wages. The
amount of suffering consequent upon
that strike will never be known. Elk
perience is, indeed, dear teacher. but
oftimes people will learn from no other.
1t is gratifying to note in this connec-
ton that the lessons of the past are
telling upon the present in shaping
popular sentiment and that it will not be
long until the strike policy will have
lapsed into innocuous desuetude.

We are not the least apprehensive that
the result of the pending presidential

splendid victory to the Republican
party. Nevertheless, in view of the pos

ubon to place upon their presidential
