PERSONAL.

Past Commander in-Chief Louis Wagner
holds the very important position of Presi-
dent of the Board of Directors of City
Trusts in Philadelphia, and as such has
the management OF the immense Gmard
estate. Jan. 3, 1898, was celebrated the
50th anniversary of the establis hment of
Girard College, and on that occasion Gen.
Wagner gave brief but most satisfactory
account of the Boards stewardship and
the wonderful development of the college.
Gen. Wa sner has been connected with it
for 81 years. From 100 pupils in 1913, when il
started, the college has now more than 500,
or more than five times as many as Stephen
Girard planned for. 1t has admitted 5000
and graduated 4 500. The endowment OF
the college has been increased from an es-
timated value of S., 600, 900 in 1S4S to an
estimated value of $50, coo, 600 in 1898,
while SIS. 900, GOO has been ex ended in
maintenance and enlargement. This is a
magnificent showing, and no small part of
the credit for it is due to Comrade Wagner
The memory of veteran is recalled by
the marriage of Howard Gould, the third
son of the late Jay Gould, to Miss Kittie
Ciemmons, an actress. She is the grand
daughter of Lieut.-Col. Thos. M. Kilpat-
rick, of the 18th H., who was killed in the
first days fight at Shiloh. She is ex-
ceedingIy pretty, accomplished and pre-
possessing; but Mr.. Gould may have to
sacrifice large portion of his fortune by
marrying her, as there was provision in
his fathers will FORGETTING the bulk of any
heirs share who should marry contrary to
the wishes of the other heirs and execu-
tors. These latter were strongly opposed
to the marriage, but young Gould would
have his owl way, and after the marriage
sailed away with his bride on mis- palatial
yacht, the Niagara. At last accounts the
yacht was at Annapolis, and the young
couple were receiving much social atten-
ton.
Comrade E. Weingartner, of Davenport,
Iowa, has sustained a severe loss in the
death of his son, Emil, who at the be-
ginning of the war went East to enlist in
the nav, but not succeeding, Joined the
18th U. s.. a nd was brilliantly courageous
at the capture of San Juan Hill. He was
slightly ounded there, but was taken down
with fever He grew better was sent home,
had relapse, and died. His funeral was
very largely attended, the GAR. turning
tending.
Comrade Milton Chase, NJ. D.. is one Of
the foremost citizens of Otsego Mich.
He was born in Monroe, Mich, in 1887,
and secured medical education by the
hardest labor and privation. He had
scarcely completed this when the war
broke out, and he enlisted in the 9th Mich.
After serving carrying gun some time
he was promoted to Hospital Steward, and
then to Assistant Surgeon. He served
till the regiment was mustered out, and
did not lose but one day from duty. He
returned to the practice of medicine in
Michigan, and finally settled in OtsegO,
where he has large practice, and is
held in general esteem by his neigh bors.
He served them several years as Justice
of the Peace and is now member of the
Village Council. He is an ardent temper
ance advocate, and in 1894 was nomina-
ted for Congress on the Prohibition ticket.

INSIDE OF REBELLION.

Owing to press Of matter upon our
columns the publication of " Inside of
Rebeldom," by DR.. J. p. Cannon, has
been necessarily postponed for two or
three weeks. 1t will be in full swing,
however, by the middle of November.
In this narrative, which we are about
to begin, DIR. Cannon goes back to the
commencement Of the war and brings
his story up to the point where he be-
gan last year. 1t will be remembered
that the original series of the Inside
of Rebellion started with the Spring
Of 1864, and owing to its great popu-
larity the author has consented to 90
back to the beginning of the struggle,
when he entered the Confederate service
as boy, SO as to give us his experiences
complete as private in the Confederate
service from start to finish.

THE PEACE COMMISSION.


So far the time of the Peace Com
mission has been utterly wasted by the
Spaniards in presenting propositions
which they must have known the
Americans could not even consider
So far as this was play to the galleries
at home there can be certain sympa-
thy with it. but as business procedure
it was absurd and irritating. The
Spaniards have even affected to treat
the protocol itself as not a finality in its
specific terms, and attempted to revise
it. They have acted as if the meeting
was not between conquerors and con-
quered, but rather one which we had
solicited in order to get some things
from Spain which we desired. This
may be European diplomacy, but it is
not the American way Of looking at and
doing things, and the American Com
missioners finally had to bring them up
with the blunt reminder that they were
the defeated party, tina. they had asked
for cessation of hostilities, and it was for
them to learn the terms that we proposed
to exact. To their chop-logic about
the sovereignty of Cuba necessarily
passing to us, the "impossibility of an
interregnum of sovereignty" and that
the sovereignty necessarily implied the
assumption of the so-called debts of the
island the Americans have replied with
words of cold common sense and COM
mon justice. We have said that by the
very words Of our own declaration of
war, we are estopped from assuming the
sovereignty of Cuba. We have gone
into the island in the interests of human
ity, to put stop to condition of things
which was scandal to civilization and
Of direct material injury to us We
have simply pledged ourselves to restore
peace and order in the island and give
protection there to person and property.
We are entirely capable Of doing this,
and the world believes that we are.
Under our protection Spanish persons
and property will be safer than they
have ever been heretofore. This is
great task for us to set ourselves. It
has cost great deal already, and likely
to cost us much more. To ask us to
assume in addition the payment of
debt of S500,OO0.000 is ridiculous in
the highest degree. We stand willing
to guarantee every debt created for
Cuban purposes, but cannot consider
that which was largely made for the
purpose of fastening SPANS robber
grasp on the island. A great portion
of the debt was incurred for the war
against Morocco, and for other pur-
poses not yet developed.
The position of the Americans is
impfegnable, and it will be maintained,
without deviation, even at the cost of
reopening the war. In fact, it is believed
at the hour of going to press-Tuesday
noon, Oct. 25-that the answer of the
American Commissioners delivered yes
terday was in the nature of an ultimatum,
and the Spaniards were distinctly in
formed that no more trihing will be
allowed. They must either come down
to the discussion Of the real questions
for which the Commission was formed,
or it will be dissolved, and the conse-
quences will be upon their country.

Well Received.

The Lady of the Lake lodge of
was represented here on last Friday
by twenty-seven members. 1t was q
return visit in recognition of the one
paid them by Valparaiso lodge upon
the occasion Of the institution of the
;; lodge at Alexandria and was a very
pleasant affair indeed. The continuous
rain made it dfsagreeable outside but
, indoors every effort was made to give
the visitors a reciprocal welcome as
cordial and pleasant as possible.
| The guests we're met at the station
| by covered cOnveyances and taken to
various places in the city the majority
going TO the Sank Centre House. The
afternoon was spent in visiting-re-
| newing old and making new acquain-
tances and as far as the rain would
permit, looking at the various points
of interest about the town.
In the evening the Auditorium-th
beautiful home of the Rebeka s-was
open to all members of the order and
after the ceremony of initiating some
new members was finished banquet
was served and dancing followed until
the departure of the train for Alexan-
dria. The universal verdict of the
visitors seems to have been that they
thoroughly enjoyed the reception and
were pleased with the city and it's
people. ~.
Geo. G. S. Campbell, Grand Master
of the Odd Fellow of the state was
among the visitors and he was the cen
trail figure of various groups. He is a
man of very pleasing address and well
posted on ali points of Odd Fellowship
as well as the leading topics of the
day, and was right royalty welcomed.
The fraternizing of the societies of the
different cities creates friendships that
are enduring as TING and is one of the
best results obtained from them.

THE LAST mEmoRIAL DaY.

dreamed last night of agrand array
OF marshaled men on Memorial day
Hundreds of thousands, far away.
/ saw with their banners streaming.
They marched the street with silent tread
Down to the graves of the nations dead,
And the ghostly moonlight overhead
|. Through their serted ranks was streaming
All night long, through the quiet stree /.
Till thought heard their marching feet,
The muffled music, low and sweet
And the notes of the bugle ringing.
Sherman's army and MeCleilan's men,
Hancock, Blair, Mcpherson. then
The dead from prisons in line again,
The songs of the nation were singing.
Then Burnside came and General Meade,
And dashing along at his topInost speed,
Game Sheridan, who in the hour OF need
Won fame on September's morning.
Then Fremont came from western sands,
And Hooker and Porter, and EOSencranS,
Carrying their SaberS IN their hands
Marching to the bugles warming.
Then Grant with his veteran army passed,
Sadly, without the trumpet's blast = -.
And ! Wondored~hoW long Is would last
The march of the dead of the nation; .
When out from the mist the.'UnknoWn Dead
For whom no Wreaths Of lpve are spread,
Wierdly marched with silent t@eGd
And with signs ana lanentation.
For hours there passed these silent men,
Who yielded their rfves in prison pen
Or fell in some deep, hidden fen
Unknown to friend or relation.
Into the mist of the morning gray,
! watched this host as it passed away
Some with wreaths of Memorial Day,
And | thought how slight the token;
For the boys are old, and the years are few,
When into the great, sad, Grand review
Will pass the last of the boys in blue,
And the phantom chain be broken.
So all night through watched the throng,
For those knew must pass along;
For well knew the phantom song,
And the words heard them singing,
Till out OF the mist, on the open plain.
The crew of the sunken vessel, Maine
Erect and proud in life again,
Fresh WfeathS of laurel were bringing.
And again heard the people say,
The only debt we can never pay,
I'VE owe to the Union soldier"
And | wondered if they'd think that way
After the present OblatiOn;
For while they marched with specter tread,
This phantom host of the Union dead,
Their brothers aged, in want, instead
Were thrust aside blythe nation.
And l thought they seemed to be afraid
That men would forget the price once paid,
The sacrifice once for freedom made, 81
The part in the struggle the soldier played
And their graves should be fOrsaken9
And hoped. for | saw a time near by -
When the last Grand Army man would die,
And some would forget that love can buy ~
No truer gift than the flowers that die,
That was surely mistaken.
