The Ohio legislature has passed
an act appropriating $4,000 to build
a monument over the dead can
drews railroad raiders" who are
buried at the national cemetery at
Chattanooga. Governor Foraker
has appointed a commission, con-
sisting of Judge 7. A. Minshall,
chief justice of the supreme court
and a soldier Of the thirty-third
Ohio regiment, Mr.. Berry, of the
Twenty-frst Ohio, and Captain L..
b. Porter, Of the Second Ohio, to
carry out the provisions of the act.
The raiders came from these three
regiments. The history of this dar-
ing raid is well known in Georgia.
Captain William A. Fuller, who was
then a conductor on the Western
and Atlantic, and who led the Won
dertul and novel pursuit which re-
suited in the capture of the raiders,
near Chattanooga, has received a
letter from Captain Stephen Porter
asking for information and sugges-
tons. He suggests that the Wes-
tern and Atlantic, which takes so
much interest in the military move
ments along its line during the war,
should run excursion trains to Chat
tanooga when the monument is un-
yelled there. Captain Fuller is
naturally very much interested in
the commemoration of an event in
which he was leading actor. The
daring character of the raid, and
the tireless and brave chase, form
one of the famous episodes of the
war. The raiders were hanged in
Atlanta in June, 1862, and some
time atterward were buried at Chat
tanoOga.

A discussion arose on board an

The sessions of the New Hamp-
shire legislature are likely to be
shorter in the future than they have
been in the past. Hereafter the
members will be paid 5000 per year,
be the sessions long or short. There
is, perhaps, no more effectual way
than this to promote short sessions
of legislative body.

WHAT is LOVE?
A Passionate POetess DeScants ON a
Most Mysterious Subject.
Love is the essence of every

Love is the essence of every exist
ing thing; the root of life the
recompense for death.
1t is the all creative spark, the
vital force OF the universe. There
is power to achieve in the mere ut
terance of the word-love. | think
God said 81 love the EARTH" and
10. the earth sprang into being.
Love is the natural element of all
things. The illimitable oceans Of
space are composed of the waters of
Love. Whoever loves most widely
and warmly is most in harmony with
the universe. Love is the KEY to
success. To love your work is to
excel it. To love observingly and
nobly any worthy object or aim is to
eventually obtain and attain it.
Love is at once an ecstasy and an
agony. 1t is the bridge whereon we
are compelled to walk continually
to and fro, between heaven and hell,
but ever back to heaven.
When the bridge breaks or it's
timbers rot away, then are we pre-
cipitated into hell, and unable to
find the door to heaven again for
the only way to 60 is over the bridge
of Love. He who loves greatly hates
feebly. All strong emotions proceed
from and derive their strength from
Love. If Love uses his own force
there is nothing left for Hate. 1t is
only when Love grows INDECENT and
sleeps that Hate is enabled to steal
his garments of strength and sally
forth to do evil. But even then he
has not his elder and divine broth
er's power, for he was sired by man,
and Love was fathered by God.
God espoused nothing and said,
81 love" and Love was born to rule
the universe. Afterward nothing
conceived and bore by man a mis-
shappen creature called Hate; but
at one glance from the divine eyes
of his nobly born brother he falls
vanquished at the feet of Love.
To love is to become wise with
the wisdom of ages, yet to become
as little child in humility and sub
lection.
TO love enables US to lead an army
into the jaws of death, and to serve
as a mental at the feet of one so
loved.
To love is to know happiness but
not contentment, rapture but not
peace, exhilaration but not salts
faction; for contentment means
inertia, peace means stagnation, and
satisfaction means safety, and these
three cannot exist where love is.
Love and action are co-existent,
and there is no repose where love is,
but there is rest even in it's restless
ness, ecstasy in its misery, hope in
its fear, joy in its sorrow, and sweet
in its bitter.-Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

The st. Paul and Kansas City Kicks Out

CHICAGO, Aug. 22-Ths St Paul and
Kansas City road YESTERDAY announced that
not only would it adopt the reduced proper
tional tariff to st. Paul SEPT 81, but would
put the low proportional tariff into all inter-
mediate points between Chicago and st.
Paul, and it is alleged, without waiting even
to give the state commerce commission three
days notice of the new rate.i, as required by
law, the tariff was at once quoted to ship
pers. The notice created good deal of ex-
element Chairman Faithorn, Of the West
ern Freight association, al once ruled that
the notice was. irregular, il egal, and out Of
order. The ST. Paul and Kansas City repre-
sentative stated, however, that the road had
recently given so many mott ,es of reductions
which had petered out, owirg to obstructive
rules, that 1t had been decid ed to ignore the
usual conventionalities this time.
They VIII All Foil wv Suit.
At the afternoon session of the freight
agents of the western roads, several roads
demanded that in view Of the notice of the
st Paul and Kansas City, Chairman
Faithorn should rule thai all lines might
make a similar reduct on. Chairman
Faithorn stated that the St Paul and Kansas
City road was violating all its covenants
with the other roads, but it is expected that
he will give all roads the nee essary authority
to meet the cut rates.
