Politicians Ends Seriously.
SAN Francisco, June 26.-The Nc
Manuses and Welshessara rival boarding
house keepers. Yesterday a warrant was
issued for the arrest of Frank McManus
for forgery, it is supposed at the instiga-
ton of the Welshes.
This morning both sides had quarrel,
in which Cornelius McMauus was shot
by Jack Welsh. who was stabbed by
Frank McManus. All parties were then
arrested.
McManus and Welsh are resting easily.
McManus will probably recover. The
bullet did not pass directly through the
body, as at first supposed. His brother,
king" McManus, has been a frequent
caller. Saturday night, after leaving the
hospital, where his brother was then sup
posed to be dying, king" visited
number of saloons and said that
he would not rest easy until
he had avenged the death of his brother.
He threatened TO kill Phil. Crimmins,
who poses here as political boss, and
started out to find Crimmins to carry out
| his threat. Some friends, however, dis
suaded him, but he declared to the crowd
on the sidewalk that Crimmins was re-
sponsible Tor his brothers. murder, and
that Crimmins would not survive the
fight. Crimmins has heard of McManus'
threats, and is on his guard. Welsh is
doing well. The knife wound has de-
veloped no new symptoms, and it is be-
lieved he will recover.

Educate Children to High Ideals.

We are too ready to impart instruction

habitually dwell in the latitude of the up

seeming instead of being right, enter into
our own lives, and, alas poison the lives
OF the little ones at the fountain. A grand

of forttude, of -abnegation, of cour-
age against odds, is never in vain. 1t is
an obiect-lesson that flames out from the
sky, as the planet among the lesser stars.
Whether it he an Arctic or an African ex-
plorer, the leader OF a forlorn hone. the
missionary living among the island
lepers, or the army nurse, leaving home
and luxury TO minister to the wounded
and soolbe the dying, the noble idea is
uplifted before the eyes of those who are
yet in the initial stages of destiny. This
thought of the lofty ideal gives the chief
value OF our annual Decoration Day giving
