OUR DAILY RECKONING,

II you will sit down at set of sun,
AND count the acts that you have done,
And, counting, find
One self-denying act, one word
That eased the heart of him who heard;
One glance most kind.
That felt like sunshine where II went,
Then you may count that hour well spent
But IL through all the livelong day
You've cheered no heart by yea or nay,
II throughout all
You've nothing done that you can trace
That brought the sunshine to one face;
No act most small
That helped some soul and nothing cost,
Then count that day as worse than lost.

PRAXEDES MATEO SAGASTA,
.in's Noted Liberal Leader.

ed minister of the interior in the first cabi-
net formed by General Prim, and gradual
ly abandoned his radical views breaking
entirely with Gorilla. He was made minis
ter Of state in January, 1870. He con-
tinued in the cabinet under King Amade-
us, and took part in several ministerial
combinations. He was minister Of foreign
affairs under President Serrano in 1874,
minister of the interior and president of
the council After the coup d etat which
resulted in the re-establishment of the
monarchy he withdrew from public life,
but in June, 1875, gave his adherence to the
cause of Alfonso. In 1880, when new
liberal party was formed, he Joined It,.
The conservative cabinet of Canovas del
Castillo was overthrown early in 1884, and
a coalition formed by Sagasta, and Gen.
eral Martinez Campos assumed control
and remained in office till October, 1888
when 1t was succeeded by a cabinet
formed from the dynastic left. On the
death of Alfonso, 1885, Sagasta again be-
came the head. He was overthrown in
1890, and retired.

Washington, June 4.-Marquis Ito, of
Japan, who recently visited the United
States On his way to London for the
queens jubilee,i is without doubt the great
est of the statesmen in the isle Of the
chrysanthemums. lie goes to London as
the special representative of the emperor.
Marquis Ito for twenty-five years has
been a. close adviser of the emperor, and
for fully that time he has been in almost
every cabinet of the government. He has
represented the progressive party in Japa-
nese politics, and to his efforts is largely
due the Advancement that enabled Japan
to easily whip the giant China in the
late war He believes in the elevation of
the masses, and he was instrumental in
making the people as free in Japan as
they are under any monarchical form Of
government in the world. When the war
with China was being prosecuted Ito fol-
lowed a popular policy and won the enmity
of many eminent and powerful politicians.
These schemers, desiring to humble him,
persuaded the EN- peror to confer upon him

vices for doing work rapidly and on a
gigantic scale.
On the rock sections of the canal the
sides were cut vertically down by chan
nelling machines, and the work is so
smoothly done that one might easily
imagine that it had been cut with a
huge cheese knife. Steam drills were
extensively used, and these were ope-
rated from a central station by COM
pressed air. These rock cuts, the most
expensive portions or the work done
on the canal, were all completed by
the contractors within the time limit
specified by the contracts.
ESTIMATED COST.
The latest reports of the sanitary
beard, as prepared by William Trink-
aus, record clerk of the engineering
department, show that. taking the
work of excavation as a whole, from
the Chicago river to Lockport, more
than 95 per cent. has been done. Dur
ing the year 1896 nearly 45OO, 900 cubic
yards of glacial drift and more than
10000 cubic yards of solid rock were
eXcavated. This alone required the
payment by the sanitary district of
en- average of more than $225,OOO a
month. Retaining walls have been re-
quired and built upon twelve sections
of the canal. On several of the sections
this work amounted to little more than
the filing in of the clay pockets in the
rock through which the channel is ex-
cavated.
The question of cost is one of great
importance in connection with the
work. The amount of money expended
for all purposes to January, 1897, the
date of the latest report, was $22, ,591,-
S0l.S5. The total cost of construction
TO Jan. /, 1889, including interest, land
and administration, is estimated $751;
737402 81.

Praxedes Mateo Sagasta, the noted
leader of the Spanish liberal party, is to
the front again as the cause of the as
saut made by the Duke of Tetuan upon
Senator Comas on the floor of the senate.
Tetuan charged that it was Sagasta's
speech to the liberals that brought about
the vote in the American senate. Sagasta
is an old patriot of Spain, and has been in
a revolution or two. He was born at Tor
recilla de Cameros in 1927. He studied for
an engineer, and practiced his profession
at Valladoid and Zamora. He was elect
ed to the constituent cortes from the lat
ter place in 1854 He took an active part
in the revolution of 1856, and was Obliged
to take refuge in France. He later re-
turned to Spain and accepted professor
ship in the School of Engineers at Madrid,
and became the editor of La Iberia, the
organ of the progressist party. He was
engaged in the insurrection of June, 1866,
and was again obliged to fly to France,
where he remained till after the dethrone-
ment of Queen Isabella. He was appoint

the title of marquis and to decorate him
with a noble order that had never been
worn by anyone outside of the imperial
family. Ito was amazed when the emper-
or offered him these extraordinary honors
and said not "a word in reply. He silently
left the emperor and, resigning his posi-
ton as premier, he sent the emperor a
courteous letter thanking him for his
kindness, but declining the title and the
decoration. Then he retired to a distant
part of the country. His enemies had
temporarily triumphed but Itos day was
to come. When the emperor learned of
the despicable trick by which his premier
had been shamed he promptly sent for Ito,
restored him to power and insisted on
his accepting the title and the order
Ito finally complied, and there is no more
successful or eminent man in Japan today
He has the love and the esteem or his
monarch, to whom he has ever been a
m ost disinterested friend, and he is per-
sonaliy deserving of the great honors
which enemies have unwittingly bestowed
upon him.

WORK OF A TORPEDO.
Suddenly the enemy, as II inspired by
a Titanic force, rose from the water.
deafening and prolonged noise was
heard, the confused sound of human
voices rent the air. there arose a colos-
sal dome of smoke and water throwing
out fragments of burning wood and
molten iron and the immense mass of
steel broken in two parts, sank with a
terrible noise into the sea. A torpedo,
fortunately launched by the heroic
Spanish crew, had been sufficient to
bury in the depths of the ocean the
proud fortress of steel.

of 10000 men, which landed at Matan-
zas, conveyed by another squadron.
The Yankee general-in-c -chlef, feeling
sure Of victory. decided to take the
offensive. Leaving 5000 men in Mat
anzas, he began the movement with
the rest of the army, which numbered
$4,000 regular troops and 10000 Cuban
insurrectlonists, well armed and equip
ped.
No difficulties were encountered un-
til the column had reached a point
near San Juan de Jaruca. The Spanish
army was concentrated not far from
this town and occupied an elegant po-
sition for defense. Our forces num-
bered scarcely 10000, while the enemy
was $4,000.
The battle was desperate and bloody.
The situation of our army was at
times most critical. but at the sudden
retreat of the enemy's center a divis-
ion was moved forward to support our
guns. The left and center thus routed,
the righ wing of the Anglo Americans
was obliged to fall back and the bat
tie was won.

The Three Stars.

A very pleasant evening was spent
on Monday at Central hall, listening to
the elocutiOn and song recital given by
the Misses Lura McKenna, Harriet
Miller and Beatrice Springer. The
program was excellent and varied
enough to suit all tastes. The song by
Miss Springer, II am Lonely Since My
Baby's Gone" was especially pleasing
and received an encore, also Miss Nc
Kenna's selection from Dickens David
Copperfield, "The Peggotty Home.
Her movements are easy and graceful
and one can see that elocution is per-
fectly natural to her. Miss Miller's
"lIow the La Rue Stakes Were Lost, .
was heartily enconed and Miss Miller
fully deserved all the words OF praise
which the Toledo Blade gave her. An
other song by Miss Springer, "All
COons Look Alike TO Me-" was very
pretty indeed and called forth merited
applause aud an encore. These home
talent entertainments are greatly en-
joyed by our citizens who would be
glad to have them oft repeated.
