The wounded In the Next War.

The conqueror of the future, if he ac-
cepts the old time conventional burden
of his adversary's wounded, will be-
come its victim. He will not accept the
incubus. Is it to be imagined that the
victor in such circumstances will think
twice even about his own wounded, let
alone the wounded of the other side?
No. He is in the field not to be hospital
nurse, but to follow up his advantage
by hammering on the enemy who has
departed, leaving his own wounded be-
hind, and who may come back again to-
morrow to strike him while clogged in
the live and dead debris of yesterdays
battle. The victor will hasten away to
overtake or hang on the skirts of the
vanquished army, leaving the wounded
on both sides to be dealt with as may be
possible by such surgeons as he can af-
ford, In view of future contingencies, to
leave behind, and to the ministrations

Senator Cockrell,s Memory.

Senator Cockrell of Missouri especial
" prides himself upon never forgetting
a name or face, and so marked is this
trait that his friends say he can visit
the house Of any of his constituents aft
Ell an unlimited absence and speak to
each member of the family by name.
But no man is infallible, and this SEN
ator Cockrell discovered on accosting
one of his constituents while at home
recently, whose name he tried by every
means possible to remember, but unsuc-
cessfully. Finally he hit upon what he
considered a solution of the difficulty,
and under the guise of taking the con-
stituent's name down for the purpose Of
sending him some documents he asked
him to spell it. He Yves almost staggered
when he received the reply, Jones. "

first name.
Then again came another stagger when
the constituent replied, "W-i-l-li-a-m. +"

A COMEDY OF ERRORS.

Stupidity Mixed With CaTelessness 1haC
Brought Identification to a Lovely Woman
'Talk of a Comedy of ErrorsF said
a woman of society the other day. Il
had an experience lately that might
have been called by that name, although
it was anything but a comedy to poor
me. You know that am rather an old
fashioned housekeeper and pride myself
on my cake, which make myself from
time to time, and of which, when it
turns out particularly well, | like to
send specimen to some friend. so the
other day, when l had very good luck
with new recipe, arranged my best
looking cake, all daintily frosted, in a
cardboard box, and telling my maid to
bid the ocachman take it to Mrs. S.,
with my card, went ont to do some
shopping.
ibid you send the cake?' asked on
my return. oh, ma am, exclaimed the
Abigail, James made such mistake!
/ told him to take the box in the hall,
and when came down stairs found
he had taken the big case that you
brought home yesterday.
"Well, of course it was piece Of
stupidity, but did not really mind, for
the case contained a fine copy Of an an
tique flying Victory, and as Mrs. S. is
a woman of rare appreciation l felt
really pleased that she should have it,
and that ]. for my part, should have the
credit of remembering her tastes and
making what ! knew would be an ac-
ceptable present. But was not so we'll
pleased when Mary, the overzealous,
continued, so, as soon as found out,
ma am, what he had done, told him
to go straight back and say that it was
mistake and that you would like the
case back, ma ami
''You may imagine how feltl 1t
was then too late to do anything, bat
all night the affair weighed on my mind
like an incubus, and the very next
morning wrote Mrs. S. a long explain
atory note, apologizing for the double
mistake Of man and maid and trying to
explain how the confusion had arisen.
1t sounded awkwardly enough, but it
was the best could do, so | sent it off
with the cake, which in the meanwhile
had been left waiting in the hall. When
the man came back, I asked him What
he had done with the case What case?'
he said stupidity. Why, the case Mary
told you to fetch back from Mrs S. IS.
'Shure, an niver got it back at all,
was his most unexpected answer, which
put the finishing touch to the altogether
trying situation, for if I had never writ
ten my note of explanation it would
have been all right. When, that after
noon, the expressman brought back the
unfortunate Victory, together with a
polite but puzzled note from Mrs. S. re-
turning the unlucky present (Which
afterward learned through mutual
friend had been received with much
pleasure and given a conspicuous place
in the library, my modification was
complete. Of course there was nothing
else to be done about it, but could not
bear the sight of the unlucky statuette

never to see or hear of it again. New

that Their Issue Would Be Legal,
But Bankers Are Not Satisfied and
Put Off Their Decision-Carlisle
Much Disappointed.

Secretary Carlisle, Assistant Treasurer
conrad y. Jordan sent invita- tons out
today to thirty bank presidents and
officers of ether prominent financial
institutions. asking them to meet See
rotary Carlisle. who spoke ut length
on the act OF the Judiciary committee,
saying that he thought its resolution
showed the legality OF the bond issue.
Referring to the action of the
knights of Labor. he said he is of
the opinion that the decision of the
courts will undoubtedly affirm his right
to issue bonds.
The bankers present asked numerous
questions concerning the points at is

If the legality of the bonds is shown,
he could rely on it that all the bonds
will be taken in New York, uncondi-

The general report of those present
ut the conference was that the calls,
of the proposed issue is much strength

Brayton Ives, one of Carlisle's
staunchest supporters, stated after the
meeting that he regarded the issue
perfectly legal, as well us Secretary
Carlisle's right to use the money as he
saw fit.
Another bank president, however,
who, for political reasons would not
permit his name to be used, took an
entirely different view and believed

or SKIES. which are equally profitable
and neither issue would be clouded by
the action of the Judiciary.

noon that he believed when Secretary
Carlisle returned to Washington this
evening, he was Il much disappointed
