The Woman. Side of 1t.

While the crowds are gathering
around the bulletin boards. and all
American hearts are beating a trifie
faster with pride over the gallant deeds
of our soldiers and sailors, it is well to
give a moments attention to the
woman's side of this war. 1t is not the
work of women to endure long marches,
wounds, and death, for the sake of her
country, but there is not a woman who
has given the man she loves to the army
now fighting in Cuba who would not far
rather be at his side, if that were posi-
BILE. than waiting in suspense two
thousand miles away from him. Even
to delicate and nervous women, who
have no wish to leave the secure shell
ter of home, it seems far easier to share
their husbands or their sons Ilardships
than to stay at home in bodily ease and
comfort; and there are some women.
who inherit the dash and daring of SOL
dierly fathers. to whom danger and ad-
venture are pleasant in themselves. In
the Civil War these women went as
nurses in the hospitals, and both in the
North and South there were some who
bravely took up the burdens which their
men folk had laid aside, and carried on
the farm, or the business as best they
could. In this war, however there is
no Sanitary Commission, although it
seems as if there might well be a reor-
ganization of that famous society.
There is nothing for most of the wives.
and sisters, and mothers, and sweet
hearts, of the soldiers to do but to I've
their commonplace, everyday lives and
scan the daily papers for every line of
war news.
The American nation is above all a
nation Of homes. Through all our his
tory, there has been a distinct senti-
ment in our literature and our society
against anything, no matter what, that
could possibly tend to interfere with
the home. The strongest bid which a
politician can make for popularity is
to let 1t be known, whether truthfully
or otherwise, land, sad to say, 1t some
times is otherwise), that he is devoted
to his wife. good son, and a good
father. Wherever an American builds
his house, he takes particular care for
the comfort and convenience Of his wife
and children. Other nations have had
their laugh at US for this, and have
limited that the American man is not
master in his own domicile. at which
ne smiles contentedly and intimates
that that Is his own affair; and his wife
becomes indignant at the idea that her

loudly cheered. The men were ordered
to report to be assigned to the various

Each man had the privilege of choosing
the captain he Is to serve under. unless
the captain had already mustered In
enough men to I'LL the ranks Of his COM
pany. The Bayonne contingent arrived
shortly after o'clock on special cars, and
the Hoboken men marched from the
North Hudson County railway station,
at Pavonia Avenue, to the armory.
Some of the men who were active mem-
bers Of the National Guard were in IA
tigue uniform, but the majority we're in
civilian dress. 1t was difficult task to
get the various companies together. and
to prepare the rolls In proper form. It
was only completed after two hours of
hard work, and then some of the rolls
were not completed.

TUESDAY, JULY u. 1898.
Not Honorable Resistance.

The shedding of blood is one of the
supreme pleasures of the Spaniard. He
is usually satisfied with the blood of
bulls, horses and bull fighters, but the
record of Spanish wars shows that his
highest delight is the spectacle of hu-
man suffering. 1t is a matter of au-
thentic history that even the women
and the priests have been most active
in the torture of prisoners. The red
savages of early America never devised
SO many original forms of pain as the
Spaniards have employed.
1t is this small regard for human life
this delight in bloodshed and suffering,
surrender Santiago and the delay of the
Spanish government in applying for
peace. Any other commander in the
world except a Spanish general would
avoid needless effusion of blood. No
other army ever continues a struggle
that is obviously hopeless and can only
result in piling up corpses. So far from
further resistance being honorable, it is
atrocious. To offer up lives as long as
there is the least hope of success, as
long as anything is to be gained by re-
sistance, is heroic and honorable; but
to send men to slaughter from pure OBJ
stinacy indicates contempt for man
kind that is only characteristic of the
savage.
Nothing but constant familiarity with
the brutalizing scenes which mark the
Sunday sports of the Spaniards could
harden men to this degree. They have
been taught nothing of the value of
life and nothing of its duties. Like the
beasts that perish they will conquer or
die. lacking that higher courage that
sustains defeat with fortitude.

AS might have been known. the Dons
cannot appreciate war when conducted in
a spirit of kindness and generosity. In all
our bombardment Of Cuban ports and
works the ships quit firing short Of decis-
i've results and the works were immedi-
ately restored. At San Juan the enemy
was allowed to fire the last gun. with the
Spanish colors still flying for. no other
conceivable reason than that Sampson
did not want to inflict all the damage he
could. The conseauence>was that Spain
proclaimed the repulse of the Americans
and large body of Cubans VINO were pre-
pared to join the insurgents abandoned
their design and some Of them became
Spanish volunteers. War, cannot be con-
Quoted TO triumph with-soft gloves.

SHORT CROPS OF WHEAT.

Rockville. Nd, July E.-The farmers
throughout the county are complaining
considerably over the failure of the wheat
crop. A number of the farmers who
have threshed their crops find that al
though enough straw passed through the
thresher to make twenty-five bushels to
an acre. they did not realize over fif-
teen.
Mr.. Charles Pierce and Mr.. John Dia-
mond, two of the most successful far
mers in the county. are complaining be-
cause of the smallness of the grain.
Mr.. Pierce says that on. field from

The Rice and old shoe Ceremony.

When people get married why do other people
throw rice and old shoes at the bride and groom:
when they are departing from the parental roof
for their first trip "around the harbcr'' of mat
rimonyf We have been asked by clergyman to
explain the ceremony, but the books Of reference
at hand contain very mcager information upon
the. subject. Brewer says that ''In English we'd
dings slippers and old shoes are thrown at the
bride when She leaves the house Of her parents
to indicate that she has left the house for good "
There are also other explanations, such as Cham
bers' Journal gives, as follows: "In Ang'o-Saxon
marriages the father delivered the brides shoe to
the bridegroom and the bridegroom touched the
bride on the head with it. to show his authority. .
In the article on marriage in the Encyclopedia
Americana Il is said: Among the karsces. at

also gone, and the bones of his legs were

Yesterday two Long Branch fishermen
discovered the corpse of man floating

the corpse. The tow-line was severed.

The body found today is supposed to

The idea has budded thaththe United
States regulars had something to do with
the fighting at Santiago as well as the
Rough Riders. As Stephen Crane re-
marks, when a second sergeant takes out
a troop because Its captain. lieutenant
and first sergeant all go'down in the first
five minutes firing. it is fair to infer there
has been considerable trouble. The new
field tactics were expected to AFFORD
larger measure Of protection to the ofii-
GERS, but either the tactics are defective
or the officers declined the protection.
