The pervading force of public opinion transmutes them. They come not here to transform but to be transformed, They are soon almost more eager than Americans to put on the character of their new country. They read the daily press and soon imbibe it's patri- otic spirit and its American ideal
 Tn the public schools Pat and Hans and Pierre and Ole and Tomaso and Sandy are thrown together as into @ great smelting pot, and the resulting mixture is a true American. With the schools kept out of politics and all sec- tarianism rigidly excluded, the boys and girls of each generation will learn patriotism from our songs, our histo- ries, our national days of celebration. As they mingle in room and on play ground, foreigner and native, black and white, Jew, Catholic and Protestant, will never know the old animosities of their fathers, will learn high re- gard for each other and be bound into common citizenship.
 Hard by, where our forefathers landed in this place for their first wor- ship, is the electric light plant, as if the light from the eye would emanate from the spot where the light arose from mind and soul Nearer still is a church of worshippers in the tongue of the Vaterland. Opposite is a synagogue of the ancient people of God whom Spain so ferociously expelled from her borders. And, most significant of all, there too, is, the beautiful Zunder school filled with the children of our immigrants singing our countrys songs. o that our forefathers might have seen this day!'
 Speaking of the present war, Dr. Gill | bert said:

Whether we have formal alliance or not, we can al least have good understanding with one another.

 The engines came together with great force, smashing the forward parts of each and derailing the passenger loco motive. No one was hurt, but the mon- ey damage will be heavy. The tracks were cleared by wreckers later in the day.

McClure's Magazine for October,

For the story Of the siege of Santiago de
Cuba, as it affected the people directly in
volved, on either side, in their personal safe
ty and comfort and their daily lives, there is
no document yet published equal to the Oc-
tober number Of McClure's Magazine. Mr..
Stephen Bonsal, in an article entitled d" The
Fight for Santiago" describes the campaign
as it affected the American soldier, writing
from his own observation and experience;
while for the experiences of the panic
stricken and half.starving people shut up in
the City of Santiago we have a very re-
markab e diary kept by the British Consul at
Santiago, who was all the time in the closest
relations with the Spanish authorities, and
was expending-as it later proved-his very
life in relieving the general suffering. Mr..
Bonsa's article is very fully illustrated
partly from photographs taken in the field
by himself, and partly from drawings by W..
J. Glackens, the special artist for McClure's
with the army of invasion.
There are number of other notable con.
tributions in this number. +. A. Fitzgerald
describes the first ascent ever made to the
summit of the highest mountain in the West
ern Hemisphere, Aconcagua--a feat recently
achieved by party organized and led by Mr..
Fitzgerald himself. The Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury, Mr.. Vanderlip, writes au.
thoritatively of "rhe Cost of War" Capt.
J. Z. Brady relates some picturesque and
thrilling adventures of his own as a young
telegraph operator and train.despatcher.

vile" stories, has fond and most spirited
appreciation of the West, Apropos of the

Shortly before noon the delegates be-

Up in the gallery a band was sta

After prayer by the Rev. DR.. Jud-

Reunion of Gen. Meade Veteran Assn.

The fifth reunion of the General
Meade Veteran Association was held
at Benscoter's Lake, Luzerne county,
on Saturday, Sept. 18th, 1898. There
were about twenty-five comrades and
ladies present. After partaking of an
excellent dinner at Mr.. Benscoter's,
all repaired to the grove, where the
meeting was called to order by the
President, Col. Hudson Allen, who
briefly explained the object OF the
Association, and called for the nomi-
nation OF chairman, whereupon Com
rade Rummage, of Post 4oo G. A. R.,
was unanimously elected, who, after
thanking the comrades for the honor
conferred upon him, called upon Rev.
Topping as the orator of the day.
Comrade Topping said as this was
the anniversary of the battle OF An
tietum he would give US a story as to
how the battle was fought, learned by
his own experience on that memora-
Bile battlefield. He presented the
battle most vividly, and his knowledge
and remembrance of that great fight
are remarkably wonderful. We were
next entertained by Comrade Ben
scooter, an assistant surgeon of the
late war, stationed at Chickamauga,
now home on a 3o-days' furlough.
He gave very interesting account
of the sanitary condition of the camp
and said it was by no means perfect,
but that they were daily improving
the unhealthful condition of the camp
as best they could with the facilities
at hand. Mrs. Topping then, in a
short but happy speech, gave us some
very wholesome advice. After a vote
Akshanks was given all the speakers
and MIR. and, Mrs. Benscoter for their
kind hospitality, the meeting ad-
iourned. c. H. c.

Iowa and Oregon Start for the Pacifi,

New York, Sept. 2S.-Captain Sum

lyn navy yard, received dispatch
from Washington yesterday directing
that the battleships Iowa and Oregon
be sent away from the yard to-day
and as result there was great activ-
ity aboard both vessels. 1t had been
generally understood that the battle
ships would not get away from the
yard until the supply ship Iris and the
collier eltic were ready TO make th..
trip with them around Cape Horn, and
no reason was assigned FOR the sudden
order to send the battleships away
without the supply ship and the COL

nor the elite could be got into condi-
