In war there are emergency measures,
but they are chiefly those which relate to
prompt action in raising and equipping
army and naval forces. They necessarily
have to be considered hastily, but no
very lasting harm is apt to result even If
are made. 1t is quite different
in regard to measures Of revenue and
finance. The evil effects Of mistakes in
enacting them will be felt for an indefinite
period. The bill now pending in the
senate ought not to be rushed through
under the whip and spur of war necessity.
Some features of that bill are OF the
greatest Importance, and ample time
should be given to it's consideration. 1t
Is more than a war measure, for the
principles involved will have their in
fluence in time of peace.

The Generalships and the Push

But President Mckinley will have a lot
of generalships to distribute, and, 1t is like
ly that, in spite of the best intentions, some
of the seed will fall on sterile ground. Forty
brigadier generals and eighteen major gen.
erals are the estimated crop-say, sixty
generalships, in round numbers. 1t is per.
fectly apparent that the political push will
reach some of them.-Oakland Enquirer.

Blood-Money

The brother -in-law Of the poisoner, Frank
Belew, whose information Is sending that
scoundrel to the gallows, has asked for the
reward offered by the authorities for such
information. He is probably entitled to the
blood money" but it Is earnestly to be
hoped that he will use a portion of 1t in
buying ticket out Of the state.-San Fran

FOUND HER BROTHER.
District Volunteer ShaefYer Located
After Long Search.


After Long Search.
From Brooklyn comes touching story of
a family reunion at st. Johns Hospital,
that city, In which Washington people will
be very much interested. 1t happened last
Friday. A young woman, who looked tired
out and discouraged, appeared at the hos
pital in the morning, and, in a tone which
indicated that she did not expect an affirm
ative reply inquired if Private Thomas
Schaeffer of the 1st District of Columbia
Volunteers was there.
She said that Schaeffer was her brother,
and that nothing had been heard of him
since his regiment was sent to Santiago.
She and her mother did not know whether
he was alive or dead. At last they de-
termined to leave Washington and make a
systematic search of the New York hos
pitfalls, on the chance that he might be
there. They began in the borough of Man.
haitian, and visited all the hospitals, with
out success. They then went to Brooklyn
ard visited St. Peters, the Long Island
College and Brooklyn City Hospitals, all
ways with the same result. They were
convinced that their search was fruitless,
and that they would never learn whether
the son and brother was living or dead. As
a last resort the sister decided to try St.
Johns.
Sister Irene, of whom she made the in
quiry, asked her to go through the hospital
building with her. They stopped for a mo-
ment at a window and the girl looked out.
Several convalescent soldiers were in the
yard below. The young woman became al
most hysterical, and cried out:
There's Tom Oh, thank God, I have
found Tom
Sister Irene sent for the soldier, and when
the brother and sister met there was a
pathetic scene. In the evening the mother
arrived. Schaeffer left the hospital yester-
day on a furlough and is expected in Wash
ington soon.
