THE soLDlERs' HOME.
Some Suggestions By tho Department
 Commander.

Commander.
 General Fanton, commander depart mCnt Cf Connecticut, G. A. R., has issued circular to post commanders recommending that each post send a delegate to the soldiers home. Noroton, to make full inquiry and investigation into it's aims, requirements and, in fact, learn all about the home so that the next department encampment may act ntelligently should any changes be deemed necessary.
 One other matter is suggested. There is, in all probability, not member of thls department who has not a book or magazine which he could spare; and the department commander would ask each post to appoint a committee to col ltct anything of the above-no matter if the book he sOIled or covers torn-and send it along. The inmates of the home number at the present time 276, and this number will soon be increased. As they have no employment, their idle ness becomes necessarily irksome, and the want of reading matter IS seriously felt

Patrick Egan n Chile.

When civil war began in Chile II was
tbe duty Of our minister 10 comprehend It,
and while his official relations were with
the existing government his conduct
should have been absolutely impartial, and
his reports to his own government should
have kept It precisely informed not only
Of facts, but of what he believed to be the
probabilities Of the situation. Without
such information foreign governments
may be made practically hostile TO move
ments which are really those Of people
against lawless oppression. It is plain
that Mr.. Egan either did not understand
the situation In Chile, or, for some reason,
that he misrepresented It He was be-
lieyed by the congressional leaders TO be
peculiarly friendly to Balmaceda and hos
tile to them, and they were in a position
to know. Certainly our government Had
no accurate impression Of the strength
and prospects of the Congressional party,
which In q single battle overthrew the
Balmaceda dictatorship, droYe him from
the country, and ended all resistance 10 Its
power. The events showed that the state
ments of the accredited. congressional
agents in this country were substantially
correct, and our government should have
been informed Of that fact, by minister
fit for his trust, Mr.. Egan's Balmaceda
partiality was 80 pronounced that the con-
gressional party even believed that he had
pecuniary interests with the dictator, an
allegation which he denies. But his un-
deniable attitude gave the impression that
the United States was unfriendly to the
congressional movement, SO that the moral
influence Of our name and sympathy was
thrown against the side to which our sym.
pathy would naturally incline. In view
of this discouragement the feeling Of the
people Of Chile, who have oyerthrown the
dictator, is far from friendly to the United
States. This is due to the appointment Of
minister not because Of his fitness for a
delicate and difficult duty, as the repre-.
sentative OF this country In such an emer-
gency In another country must necessarily
be, but for what seems to be the pettiest
and poorest poliiics.-Harpers Weekly

AT the East Ohio conference CT

ligious and moral questions we've being
handled by all of the churches in the best
possible manner to promote the greatest
good. At all events there is no complaint
to the contrary. Now, II anything can be
improved by admitting the women as del.

that is apparent, would 1t not be the better
