FOR SUFFERING SOLDIERS.
A Duty That Democrats owe to the
Brave Defenders of Our
COuntry's Honor.

When congress meets there will be
an investigation as to the conduct of
the war. If the republicans succeed
in retaining a majority in the house
the result of that investigation will
be simply whitewashing of Alger and
ell the rest of the incompetent and
venal officials appointed by the repub-
iican administration. There have been
many corrupt bargains, great inca
pacity and innumerable blunders dur
ing the short campaign against the
Spaniards. These matters should not
be hushed up. Soldiers who have been
starved by robber commissaries. neg
lected by incompetent officers, muir
dcred by lack of proper medical atten-
ton, should be remembered bv con-
gress, and the men who caused all this
needless suffering should be severely
punished. But il the republicans re-
main in power the congressional in
yestigation will prove a farce. For
this reason democrats should labor.
strenuously to return their candidates
to the house of Representatives This
is a duty the party owes to the SOL,
diers. The war was brought about
largely through democratic influences.
but the injuries to soldiers have all
proceeded from republican admins
tration. Soldiers who have suffered
will hesitate to bring their cases be-
fore republican congress: therefore
in behalf of these brave defenders of
the flag. democrats should work zeal
ously for success.-Chicago Dispatch.

Clergymen Are Long Lived

Figures collected by life insurance com.
panies in this country and England show
that as a rule clergymen are long-lived.
Physicians and scientists agree that among
the elements which contribute to long life
are sobriety, regular hours, outdoor exer-
else, some mental occupation and, above
all, serenity. Clergymen, perhaps, come
nearer complying with these conditions
than do people in other walks of life. What
is known as Neuville's table of professional
men gave the following averages of the
length of life in 1000 cases taken for illus
tration; Physicians, 50 years; lawyers, "a:
merchants 81; teachers, SO; clergymen, G8.
The average life of sailors in those coun.
tries in which accurate records are kept
is As years; Of mechanics 49, and of farmers
65, though the average for farmers is un-
duly high perhaps.
Long life among clergymen is rather the
rule than the exception. Cardinal Mertal
Che is a Bohemian and occupies at Rome
the Office of vice chancellor of the sacred
college) is 92; the pope is 81. Rev. Henry
Liddell of Oxford, who died on January 10,
was 81. Bishop Wilmer IL 81 and Bishop
Williams of Connecticut is 80. What ID
known among insurance men as Kasper's
tables give the percentage of persons OF
various professions in England who reach
the age of seventy years as follows: Ply
sicians, "a; teachers, q; artists, %; lawyers.
30; clerks, 32; soldiers, 80; merchants. So
farmers, 40; clergymen, AZ.

Police Glass, who had it translated. The
translation, which indicates that 1t is the
work of some enemy of the lotteries, is as
follows:
ITO Whom 1t May Concern: 1t is now
an open secret that the lottery of the
combine of this city is a ring of swindlers,
pure and simple. They have formed the
new combine only with the purpose of de-
frauding the public. for what other motive
can one see, anyhow? One of the rules of
the new combine is with this wording: If,
after drawing, the premises In which said
drawing is held are invaded by the police,
such drawing Is void, and money paid in
for tickets to- be returned.
"Now, by a glance of this, the whole bot
tom of the scheme Is clearly seen-to de-
fraud the public. When such arrangement
