A HerO's Last Days.

One of the most distinguished cav
airy leaders during the war was Major
General Alfred Pleasonlon, native
OF Washington. How many people
know that he is spending the last years
OF his life in a small room of a poor
hotel in that city? He is not in
want, being in receipt of good income,
having been placed on the retired list of
the army with The rank of major by
special act of congress, but he suffers
greatly from illness. 1t is said he is
greatly emacialed, and that men who
knew him and were intimate with him
when he was the gallant aud dashing
commander OF the cavalry corps of the
army of the Potomac would not recog-
nize the fighter now.

In considering the Chilli matter it is
well to remember that some of the
bloodiest wars in history have resulted
from matters so trifing in themselves
that the common sense of common men
absolutely refused to accept them as
reasons. In truth, the two nations
fought because they were in fighting
humor; the cause alleged was mere
pretext. Who can assign any substan-
tial reason for Loris Napoleon's begin
ming the war on Prussia in 1870?
Some soldiers of Modena, in the times
when Italy was divided into many states,
once carried off bucket from a well in
an adjacent state. There was first a
local fight about it, then border fight,
and finally war in which 10000 lives
were lost. At least three of Bonaparte's
great wars We're made on pretexts SO
trifiing that no historian has been able
to figure ont the exact cause. And SO Of
many other wars. The moral is obvious:
Ii Chill aud the United States are to
fight, it win be simply because they are
anxious to fight, The great republic has
enjoyed very long peace, it IS full OF
young and hot blood, and its naval Of
ficers are secretly longing for brush
with somebody. j. FL. B.

THE NEW KANSAS SENATOR.

He Has Had Considerable Experience as
Judge and Congressman.
Hon. Bishop W. Perkins is the success
sor of the late Senator Plumb, of Kansas,
by the grace of Governor Humphreys and
a sort Of competitive examination of tine
friends and supporters of various candi
dates. Assoon as Senator Plumb's death
was announced their respective friends
began to urge the appointment Of ex-
Senator Ingalls,, Ben r. Simpson, George
R. Peck, Major j. K. Hudson, J. W. Ady
and others.
Governor Humphreys numbered the
candidates in the order that applications
were fled for them and gave full hear
ing to their supporters in the same order.
At the end he named Mr.. Perkins. The
new senator was born in Rochester, Lo-
rain county. O., Oct. is, 1S41, attended
Knox academy at Galesburg, nls., for
some time, studied law, was admitted to

fession with considerable success in
Louisville and Whereabouts. He planned
and superintended the making of streets
and roads; he built sewers and railroads.
In 1875, when the Centennial commits
sion was organized and the exhibition
held in Philadelphia, Mr.. Speed became
an assistant in the bureau of transpor-
tation in the United States government
section.
1t was in lsS- that he joined the staff
of the New York World. Then, whether
engaged in ordinary routine work or as
a correspondent sent to interview the
Marquis of Lorne, then made the viceroy
of Canada. and to describe his coming
with his royal bride. or in the editorial
discussion of events of Importance, he
did so we'll that when in 1873 the place
became vacant he was offered and ac-
cepted the position of managing editor.
In this responsible post Mr.. Speed re-
manned four years. During the latter
part of his service in that position he
added to its duties the important ones of
the publisher or business manager. 1t
was no light task to thus carry on both
departments of great daily newspaper.
but Mr.. Speed has very satisfactory rec
objections Of good work accomplished.
Early in 1883 The World changed
hands and Mr.. Speed resigned and de-
voted himself for awhile to well earned
rest. Then he undertook work to the
accomplishment of which he had long
looked forward. He edited the Letters
and Poems" of his greatuncle, John
Keats. and wrote biography of him.
These, the biography and the new edi-
ton of the Letters and Poems" were
published together in 1884. The work
was exceedingly creditable to Mr..
Speeds industry and skill and the BIZ
ography is likely to remain an authority
and the final word concerning this great
poet. Mr.. Speed was secretary of the
American exhibition in London in 1887.
He was busy for many months while
organizing this exhibition and after
ward during its progress in London.
After his return he was made editor of
The American Magazine in 1882 Since
then he hos been writer Of miscellane-
GUS matter for the daily press, the week
lies and the magazines, and his observa-
ton, almost universal in its scope, and
his skill in handling his subjects have
made him valuable and welcome con-
tributor. W. M. BANGS.
