Death is Painless.

DR.. Cyrus Edison, in North
American Review, says: Nothing
is more common than to hear from
the pulpit pictures in words of ex-
element, of alarm, of terror, of the
death beds of those who have not
lived religious lives; yet, as rule.
if;these pictures are supposed to be
those of the unfortunates at the
moment of death. they are utterly
false. In point of fact, ninety-nine
of every hundred human beings are
unconscious for several hours be-
fore death comes TO them. All. the
majesty of intellect, the tender
beauty of thought, Or sympathy,
or charity, the very love of those
for whom love has filled all waking
thoughts, disappear. As a little
baby just born into the world is
but little animal, SO the sage, the
philosopher, the hero, the states
man, he whose thoughts or deeds
have written themselves large in
the history of the world, becomes
but a dying animal at the last. A
merciful unconsclousness sets in, as
the mysterious force we call life
slowly takes leave of it's last cita-
del, the heart, and what it has be-
come what was. This is death"

A FRIEND OF EzETA.
General CastilIos, One of Antonio's OFF,
GERS, Arrives From Salvador
on the Colon.

The Pacific Mail steamer Colon arrived
yesterday morning from Panama and way
ports with quite number of passengers
and big cargo of freight. Among the pas
sengers was General Filadello Castillos, one
of Antonio Ezeta's officers, and warm
personal friend of the exiled Salvadoran.
When seen on the steamer General Cas-
tillos declined to be interviewed and as
soon as the vessel was locked he left the
Mail wharf for the California Hotel to call
on Antonio. Despite the fact that Castil-
los had been in the foremost rank of
Ezeta's fighters, no attempt was made to
apprehend him after Gutierrez got in
power. This fact would seem to throw
doubt on the statements made by Antonio
regarding the persecution of his friends in
Salvador. Letters which the deposed gen.
eral received from his native land stated
that Salvador was flowing with the blood
of his former adherents. There has never
been any confirmation of these stories, and
the officers on the Colon stated that every
thing was quiet in Salvador when the
steamer left La Libertad. Ezeta has al
ways maintained that he would return to
Salvador and remove Gutierrez from power,
and the arrival of Castillos may have some
bearing on his plot.
