Hope Tor schinnel

st. Paul, June 24.-Paul Schefrner,
shot by his father, was reported much
better to-day at the city hospital. The
symptoms of pneumonia that had
caused anxiety Sunday, had almost
disappeared. Paul was able to receive
nourishment and was suffering much
less pain. The bullet was apparently
lodged in the left lung, where it is
apt to become encysted. The young
mans surgeons have, therefore, much
hope that he will recover.

author unfortunately being unknown,
Is the following, which was sung to
stirring music:

than twenty-five stanzas, all of which
were roared forth with great gusto,
the idea Of the song being that some
Of the American soldiers had been
packed in kegs and fioated down the
Delaware to attack the British ships.
The troops on board, seeing this re-
markable feet Of kegs, are supposed
to have become alarmed and turned q

suspected object. The swing of the
song may be judged by these verses:

God save our States!
Now the proud British foe
We've made, by vict'ries, know.
Our sacred right.
Witness at Bunker Hill,
Where Godlike Warren fell,
Happy his blood to spill,

Much more in accord with the gen.
eral feeling were the following lines
addressed to an unknown author IN q
stirring song "Our Women" to the
ladies Of Pennsylvania and New Jer-
sey, who illustrated the nobility Of
their sentiment and virtue of their
patriotism by generous subscriptions
to the suffering soldiers of the Ameri-
can army. The first stanza, which is
a type Of dozen, reads:
All hail! superior sex, exalted fair,
Mirrors of virtue, heavens peculiar
care;
Form'd to enspirit and ennoble man,
The immortal finish of Creations plan!
In those lines is revealed the real
spirit of the American gentleman, for
these grimy-hended, powder-stained
veterans Of the Revolution were gen.
tlemen every inch Of them. brave in
battle, loyal to duty, chivalrous to
women. The gentlemen of to-day who
celebrate the Fourth of July with such
lavish display can do no more than
that.
