MURDERED MARTYRS
Continued from first page.

of the living. I would, if I
could, restore them to their
rightful positions as evange-
lists, the proclaimers of good
news to their fellow-men-
crusaders. to rescue the sacred
shrines of justice from the pro-
fanations of the capitalistic de-
filers who have made them
more repulsive than Augean
stables. Aye, would take
the m, if l could, from peaceful
slumber in their martyr
graves-I would place joint to
Joint in their dislocated necks
Il would make the halter the
symbol of redemption-I would
restore the flesh to their ske1e-
ton bones-their eyes should
again flash defiance to the enc
mics of humanity, and their
tongues, again, more eloquent
than all the heroes of oratory,
should speak the truth to a
gainsaying world. Alas, this
cannot be done-but some
thing can be done. This stig-
ma fixed upon their names by
an outrageous trial can be for
ever obliterated and their fame
be made to shine with resplen-
dent glory On the pages of
history.
Until the time shall come, as
come it will, when the parks of
Chicago shall be adorned with
the statues, and with holy ;ac-
claim, men, women and chill
dren, pointing to these 1nonu-
ments as testimonials of graft
tude, shall honor the men who
dared to be true to humanity
and paid the penalty of their
heroisrn with their lives, the
preliminary work of setting
forth their virtues devO1ves
upon those who are capable of
gratitude to men who suffered
death that they might live.
They were the men who, like
Al Hassen, the minstrel of the
king, went forth to find themes
Of mirth and joy with which to
gladden. the ears of his master,
but returned disappointed, and,
instead of themes to awaken
the gladness and joyous echoes,
found scenes which dried up
all the fountains of joy.
Touching his golden harp, AL
Hassen sang to the king, as
Parsons, Spies, Engel, Fielden,
Fischer, Lingg, Schwab and
Neebe proclaimed to the
people:
Oh king, at thy
Command I went into the world of men;
l sought full earnestly the thing which I
Might weave into the gay and lithsome
song.
/ found it, king; twas there. Had I the
art
To look but on the fair outside I noth-
ing
Else mad found. That art not mine, I
saw what
Lay beneath. And seeing thus I could
not sing;
For there, in dens more vile than wolf
or jackal
Ever sought, were herded, sitting, foul,
the
Writing, crawling masses of mankind.
Man! J..
Ground down beneath oppression's iron
heel
Till God in him was crushed and driven
back,
Aud only that which with the brute he
shares
Finds room to upward grow.
Such pictures of horror our
martyrs saw in Chicago, as
others have seen them in all
the great centers of population
in the country. But, like the
noble minstrel, they proceeded
to recite their discoveries and
with him moaned:
And in this world
saw how womanhood's fair flower had
Never space it's petals to unfold. How
Childhood's tender bud was crushed

guns. Cervera's ships really were
formidable. They carried first-class
modern guns, but lot first-class
modern gunners. Naval victories
are won by men behind the guns.
American crews on Cevera's ships
would have carried them to safety
or made the enemy's fleet pay dearly
for the victory.
Goodness under fire was one Of the
principal factors which made the
Americans victorious at Manila and
Santiago. BY temperament the
Spauiard is excitable while the
American is not, and under critical
conditions the fighter who keeps his
head is the one who wins. The key
note to Dewey's victory at Manila
was sounded when i'm the midst of a
rain OF shells from Montejo's ships
the American admiral quietly re-
marked: You may fire, Gridley,
whenever you are ready"
During the running fight at Santi-
ago n of the gunners of the Oregon,
who fired ls6 aimed shots at the
enemy, maintaining an average of
one shot every twenty seconds, was
knocked down and stunned by the
explosion of a Spanish shell which
struck the metal shield above his
head. Regaining his feet he saluted
his superior officer, and, with the
remark, ''They seem to have it in for
this gun, SIR" returned to his work
mechanically.
After the Vizcaya, the Infanta
Maria Teresa and the Almirante
Oquendo had been fought to astand-
still and We're beached to save their
crews, the Brooklyn and the Oregon
entered upon a stern chase after the
Christobal Colon. Suddenly a string
OF signal flags on the Oregon went
up, and the Brooklyn boys cheered
Justify as they read the message,
Remember the Maine" Then the
Brooklyn set an answering message,
Haven't we done so?" A few
minutes later Captain Clark, refer
ring to the fact that the Cristobal
Colon was built in Italy, signaled:
There is a strange craft ahead;
looks like an Italian" And Com
modore Schley answered: TRY one
of your 13-inch train of cars on her."

thought of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People and concluded to try them. In
the morning / went to the drug store and
purchased a box of the pills and commenced
using them according to directions.
1t was the wisest thing l ever did,. On
the third night after commencing their use I
went to bed and slept all night without q
particle of pain. l continued taking the
pills until l used five boxes and have not felt
any symptoms of my old trouble since that
time, now two years ago.
Just after 1 stopped the use Of the pills I
met with an accident. In chopping wood I
cut my foot very badly, the axe going clear
through the instep of my foot. It was
thought the wound would be very hard to
heal for a man of my age, but to the surprise
difficulty. / attribute this also to the good
condition of my blood through the use Of
the pills"
In rheumatism the blood has an acid i'm.
purity which ~irritates the sensitive tissues
that unite the joints and cover the muscles,
thus causing those Understandable tortures which
rheumatic sufferers endure. Rheumatism is
always dangerous as it is liable to attack the
heart.
Years ago those afflicted, were bled ; as II
taking away some of the impure blood could
remedy the balance. This folly has been
abandoned, and to-day physicians prescribe
and druggists recommend the use of DIR.

these marvellous vegetable pills go directly to

by eliminating poisonous elements and renew

Poetic Justice.

A writer in the Chicago-Times
Herald, in a long article on Lieuten.
ant Wainwright, the hero of the
Gloucester which destroyed the
Spanish torpedo boats Pluton and
Furor, relates the following incident
showing how fate or fortune has
favored the young commander and
with what nobility of character be
returned good for evil:
On the morning after the Maine
disaster, Wainwright, who, with his
captain, had been the last to leave
the ship alive the night before, was
the first to approach the shattered
wreck in the gray dawn of Feb. l6.
With a small boats crew he had
gone over to look for bodies of the
dead, or to see If perchance there
might still be there someliving thing.
He was intercepted and warned
away by a patrol of Spanish seamen.
They announced that they were act
ing under the orders of Admiral
MOnterola. Wainwright did not
HcL dukIJ. I1c ucNCk iocCb hio hSou
But his face wore that same grim,
set expression that it wore after
ward when he described the incident
to the members of thecourt Ofinquiry
and followed it up with an array of
hard facts and structural evidence
that, with the possible exception OF
Ensign POwelson's brilliant work,
did more than any one factor to con-
vince the court of damning Spanish
guilt.
1 cannot help wondering, since
Vain wright remembered the Maine
SO well, whether he remembered his
little rebuff from the sailors of
Admiral Monterola when fate the
other day made it his fortune to
welcome into his cabin the ablest of
all SPANS admirais and receive from
him his sword in token of the sur
render of SPANS proudest fleet.
Here in truth was the very irony of
fate.
But wright was a generous
foe. If he remembered M%onterola's
snub he probably rendered as well
that it was Admiral Cervera whose
courtesy first relieved a
anxiety FORTS hero, Hobson.
AS Bayard Taylor has said, "The
bravest are the tenderest." When
the gray haired admiral of Spain
was brought. a prisoner of war,
aboard the Gloucester, broken in
spirit and wounded in body, VAIN
wright received him at the gangway
with oughtstretched hand:
II congratulate you, sir upon hav-
ing made as gallant a fight as was
ever witnessed on the sea-" Gener-
Gus, chivalric words, these, and 1 can
well imagine the cordial hand grasp
that attended them and the unstudi-
ed courtesy with which the COM
mander of the victorious Gloucester
turned over the privacy of his own
cabin while the defeated admiral was
left alone with his grief. Vain
wright's taciturn face is a stranger
to tears, but he could understand
the sorrow of N who weaps for his
comrades and his strick-
en- ship.
Singularly enough it has fallen to
the lot of the Names late executive
officer to sink two of SPANS much
vaunted "destroyers" and to the
Names late captain to seriously
the third. And who shall
say there is no such thing as poetic
