At Cleveland they put two cars filled
with Polish immigrants on the rear of our
train, as they had through some accident
been belated, and we sped away for Tole-
do. At $ O'Clock at night man came into
our car, in which Senator Quay had a
berth, and said.
Ladies and gentleman, child has been
born in one of the immigrant cars. It's q
boy. Although we are in OHIO, I'm Penn
sylyanian myself, and as Senator Quay is
also on the train it is proposed to name
that boy Quay Langdowski. II has been
proposed that we all chip in and raise q
purse for the boy"
We Clipped. Quay saw our whole pile
be proud Of the honor and the man passed
into the next car. An hour later we learned
that no child had been born, and that the
fellow had raised SIS and dropped of at
some station.

,rhe Confederate Flag in Line.

To he Editor Of the Dispatch:
In preparing the address to the survivors
of the Ninth cavalry | am sure that no
thought of Haunting the flag Of secession
in the face Of the United States entered
nv mind We simply wanted II as SYM
Dol, not Of the revival and termination Of
animosities. but of that spirit of chivalry
which bound together so compactly men
of all shades and position in social life.
II might with equal propriety and truth
be charged that ex-COnfederate soldiers
who unite in an organized effort to do ho-
mage TO the memory of the man whom all
of us loved as much for his kingly traits
of character az for his grand military ge-
MUS are equally amenable TO the suspicion
of defiance. We regard this whole pro-
ceeding as a free-will offering-a sort of
love feast, in which our old flag il natural
" and inseparably part, and cannot un-
derstand the objection even Of apreludiced
and iaundiced timidity.
Personally am inclined to doubt the
propriety of carrying the Confederate
fiag by the organizations of volunteer SOL
diery. They really constitute part Of
the National Guard, and their doing so
might possibly be distorted into some
thing approaching defiance. / do not
know that any organization contemplates
doing so and merely express an individual
opinion on a subject about which have
thought very little.
The members of the Ninth cavalry are
too thoroughly interested in bringing
about perfect and hearty reiinion of their
comrades 10 contemplate for one moment
anything that squints at defiance to any
one. We feel that We have a big interest
in our common country. and that. in the
language of Mr. Sherman, Of Ohio, we offer
tribute TO the memory of the man whose
"renown belongs TO no particular section,
but is the heritage of the American peo-
ple.n Mel.

Honor to Whom Honor Is Due.
REYNOLDS, Ga, May 8, 1890.
u Me Editor Of he Dispatch /:

IT, ue Editor Of he Dispatch:
| was greatly surprised in reading in a re-
cent No. OF the Richmond Dispatch an item
giving General Gordon credit for ledding
the last aggressive movement of the war.
To General Gordon belongs the honor OF
planning the attack on Fort Steadman, but
to Captain j. Z. Carson and his brave
sharpshooters should all praise be given
for the execution of that plan. On the
18th Of March, 1865, Captain Carson. with
one hundred picked men selected for their
skill and courage, assaulted and captured
Fort Steadman, together with 500 prisoners,
including General Mclaughlin.
The reinforcements promised never
reached the scene Of action. consequently
this most hazardous undertaking was all in
vain. One of the most daring achievements
OF the war proved abortiye,
Several years ago Mr.. Harry Edwards,
then with the Macon Telegraph, visited
Captain Carson at his home in this place
for the express purpose OF learning the
true story" and which was extensively
circulated through that popular paper.
CAPTAIN Carson has ceased the battles of
this life: has gone TO that reward pro-
missed the faithful, true, and brave. Let
not this wreath of fame be ruthlessly
snatched from his memory, but history
record the truth and announce to genera
lions 10 come the name OF the true hero of
Fort Steadman.
This is but lust TO his patriotism, and
Just to his surviving family. @.

NEW YORK ROOFS.
Thousands Use Them as Play-Grounds and

story of how some girls on one roof fllrted
with n young man on another roof, and
how the Young man IN endeayoring 70 90
from his roof to theirs slipped and fell
into eternity, To how many, even in New
York. did that news paragraph suggest the
important part the roofs play IN this city!
We have all heard Of the roofs Of Jerusa-
lem-much the finest features of the town
no doubt-yet the whole OF Jerusalem Is a
triAe compared 20 the life on tho roofs OF
New York. In place where land Is valued
AS II is on this island there Is great city

for slecping-places on the cool and breezy
roofs is so great that only first corners md

prints a picture Of a midsummer night

Some Odd Ideas OF Crime.
kansas City Tlmes.l


Did you ever stop to think of the alb
surdity of this thing We call crime
against society,"? Some one breaks INTO
your house, steals your money-the savings
of years-and leaves you helpless. Or
some one gets you to endorse ms
note, leaves You to pay it., and
ruins YOU financially. This is called an
offence against society, the man Is
dangerous and must be punished
aud restrained. lie is sent TO prison for
twenty years-so as TO give him ample time
to repent-set TO work, and the proceeds
OF his labor taken by society. Where are
you? You are really the one against whom
the offence was committed-you are the
only sufferer. Why, then, not let the earn
ings of his labor SO TO reimburse
you? That seems so simple rule
of justice that the wonder Is idiots,
let alone law-givers, have not seen
il long since. But they haven't. and they
won't rs long as we allow men who live by
teaching such stun to do our thinking and
law-makiDg for us. Even savage, tar-
barian, knows better than this. This
"criino against society" Is like the old fic-
ton OF "a sin against God" You 20 TO
hell for one and 10 the penitentiary for the
other, when in fact the only crime COM
mitted is against the man who suffers the
injury, and the only SIN committed Is
against our fellow-man who suffers.

est value TO the debate about to commence
IN your illustrious chamber. We fully re-
cognige not only that the support Afforded
silver by your legislation during the past
twelve years has helped to protect the in
dustrial world from an acute monetary
crisis, but also that the debates in
Congress have served more than all
else TO educate our people to the
recognition OF the important issues in
volved. We believe also that theincreased
coinage of silver contemplated by Congress
will restore wholly or considerably your
coinage rates, and will thus make an inter-
national settlement Of this complex ques-
ton comparatively easy We anticipate
further, with much confidence, that the
advance in the price Of silver which must
follow your action will stimulate the ex-
port trades OF your country. and. while
tending to the prosperity Of your egricul-
tural classes. will also assist the manufac-
turing industries Of tho United Kingdom
and the whole body Of our wage ear ners."

The BROKEN Harp.

Hushed Is the harp's harmonious strain,
And mute the plAintiye air
That lull'd orowhile each anxious pain
And smoothed the brow Of care.
No moro the sweet accordant wire,
Responsive 10 thy song.
Shall rouse the soul with notes Of IRE
Or melt tue captive strong.
What ruthless hand In evil hour
Destroyed the magic Tyre?
Could Melody's enchanting power
No sympathy inspire7
But hold, my muse In pity spare
The fond Inflated youth,
Whose kindling blush and troubled air
Betray the luckless truth.
Lady, forgive; his bleeding heart
SHAH long the deed doplOre,
For much no loved the mipstrers art,
But loved the minstrel more.
