+. X Martin. who followed Sherman through
Georgia relates an army incident illustrative
of the stem necessities which confronted the
hero of the March To the Sea-" who has lust
iOlned bis comrades gone before IN the silent
tentng- ground beyond. During the cam
paign preceding the fall Of Atlanta
General Sherman was greatly annoyed by the
mysterious disappearance of number
of Union sentries who were guarding
railroads within his lines Every morning for
a number of days man was missing. Every
night the sentinels went on duty with The be-
lief that before morning one or more Of their
number wOuld be in the hands Of the c1ie,illas
or dead man. Noprecaution or device of the
Federal officers fathOmed the mystery or pre-
vented its recurrence. So old Tecumseh. his
Indignation al "a boiling point. issued IA retala-
tory order substantially like this:
IF any more of my railroad guardsmen are
made way with by rebel guerillas | will issue
matches TO my cavalry with instructions to
apply them for seven miles on either side of
the aTInys line of march,"
This threat, however. failed to have the eff
feet the General hoped for. Every morning
one man was missing, and that sort of
duty became terror to the stoutest- hearted
soldier. There nothing for the Union
commander 10 do. if he would maintain dis
cipline. but 60 issue the matches, and that he
did without hesitation. Barns and houses
were burned for miles Magnificent man
sions went up in smoke. and less pretentions
homes lay smoulderng in ruins. Desolation
and distress, such as war only witnesses or
justifie, was spread far and nea-. An AFFECT
ing circumstance was the destruction OK a
poor woman's house with all it, contents. As
the soldiers marched by she stood within the
glare OF the fierce. confagration drying hsl
streaming eyes with an apron. This particnIar
reginent had received their pay tina; lay.
The boys could not restrain the promptings
of their better natures rs they Witnessed his
SIGHT and with one impulse they reached into
Their pockets and filed the weeping woman's

WE have again the periodical revival Of
the talk about raising opium in this coun-
try, and some sharpers are deluding farmers
with glittering prospects of wealth to be
obtained by growing peoples, and using the
sharper's "new process" for extracting the
opium. There is simply nothing in this
All poppy plants will produce opium, some
more than others The ones with white or
purple flowers are the most productive. The
trouble comes with the collection of the
gum, which is an emulation from slit made
in the seed capsule of the plant. This ex-
udation is carefully scraped of every after.
noon with knife, and the amount of labor
required 10 collect pound Of opium is i'm
mense. Until we can get men 10 work for
10 cents day, as they DO in India and Tur-
key, we can never grow our own opium.
Even in those countries il is not generally
profitable crop, owing to the childlike ignor-
anee of the natives. One year the price Of
opium is very high, and then they all plant
peoples. Then the production is greater
than the demand, the price falls below the
cost Of production, they all lose money, and
the next they plant little or no ground in
peoples. The production is therefore scant,
the price rises, ard the next year they all
rush into poppy-grOwing again, with the
Same disastrous result. There is another
side to the question. DO we want to famil-
iarize our people with opium? We have
enough trouble, heaven knows, with the
drink devil, but opium is fiend which makes
alcohol seem comparatively mild and harm
less

PARNELL. BALSACEDA AND BOULAN-
GER.

GlLk.
The sudden death of Charles Stewart
Parnell is a fitting sequel 10 the suicides
Of BOulanger and Balmaceda. To a certain
extent all three belonged 10 the same class,
though PROFESSIONALLY Parnell was the
ablest and best, and Boulanger the weakest
and worst All were natural leaders Of their
people, all had an enormous number OF deyot-
ed followers, and no one could bring himself
10 ouiliye his dethronement To our minds
Parnell was as clearly suicide as either of
the others. He died, a very young man
for his position, simply because he could not
make up his mind TO live when all his hopes
were dead. For ID years he had ably led
the Irish people in their struggle for en-
reimbursement and Home Rule. For years
be was the Uncrowned King" of the Hiber-
mans. All his life was conferred on the work
which he directed. lie was masterful man,
with autocratic habits of thought, and ruled
his followers with a discipline that APP
preached despOtism. lie tolerated no rivals,
and allowed no hint Of characterization.
He was rudely dethroned, largely owing to
his own misconduct, and the mistake
common TO such absolutisis, that he
could dare anything without fear OF con-
sequences. When a man gets into such
frame Of mind his end is certain, for he
never lacks an abundance of enemies, who
viii make every adverse fact tell to its
utmost against him. Balmaceda was as
truly patriotic as Parnell, and like him in
his selfcOnfdence and autocratic methods
lie tried 10 liberalize his Government, to
break down an oligarchy of aristocratic
landholders, and extend the suiIrages
and privileges Of a people who were
not prepared for such reforms lie
was overthrow by the treachcry and
incompetency of his subordinates and the
energy Of the aristocrats, who were battling
TO secure the retention Of the privileges of
their caste. Boulanger was by far the least
able and the least meritorious OF the three.
AT his best he was merely a soldier who had
fought brayely. At his worst, he was n tool
Of the clique or party which would pay the
best reward for his popularity and following
Unlike Parnell and Balmaceda he repre-
scented no great principles and his success
meant no widespread benefits 10 a people
With all his faults, Parnell is sincerely
mourned by millions, and deserves to be-
He accomplished a vast amount for Ireland
more than any other leader who preceded
HMM solidifying the National party, and
teaching ii the tactics Of victory The vic
torious Congressionalists are teaching the
Chileans how much they lost with Balma-
ceda, but Boulanger goes TO his unhonored
grave with singularly few regrets from singu-
larly few people.

this is totally different. II is a city of enter

pie are accustomed 10 that business. They

scientists, physicians, hOrticulturists, etc, TO
