ouR FALLEN uEEOES.
Lessons From Their Eloquent
 Words by Dr, Chadwick.


 At the Grace M. E. church yesterday morning the Rev. Dr. Chadwick preach ed an appropriate memorial sermon from the subject Lessons from the Graves of Fallen Heroes" He said in part: we honor the memory of our fallen heroes at this season by strew- ing their graves with flowers. It is we'll for us to thus remember our dead It is mark of our humanity and one of the things which distin- guishes man from the brute. I believe that the southerners should decorate the graves of their heroes who fell in the civil war although they fought for a wrong. Most of them believed that they were fighting for the right. We should remember our dead heroes with out bitterness and without vain boast ing for what they accomplished. We should be thankful at this time for the glorious inheritance which they fought and died for that we might have. I believe that on Decoration day the Ma tional flag should be displayed and on all memorable occasions likewise, but I do not believe that the flag should be made too common. It should be held sacred. I shall be considered heretical, I expect, but I do not believe that we should display the flag before our houses on every day of the week. We honor the men who wear the bagde of the G. A. R. and I believe that badge should be taken from the man who is found intoxicated.
 Because of the sacrifices which our heroes made our flag to-day is respect ed by all nations except Spain, and it is going to be respected there soon. Our brave sailors were victorious in our former war and they will be victorious in this speedily. We hear a great deal about the fact that the sun never sets on the empire of England. Did you ever stop to consider that the same may be said of our own country, that when the sum is setting in Maine it is rising in the Aleutian Islands. If God has willed by means of this war to use this nation to carry Christian civlliza- tion into the benighted countries of the world and to break up our policy of national isolation it is not for us to ob- ject."
 In the course of his sermon Rev Dr. Chadwick said that it was not the duty of every man to enlist. Men can often be of much service to the country by attending to his business as by enlist ing. He also expressed an earnest wish | that all the Sunday schools of the church | should march in the parade to-day and expressed his intention of marching himself.

 For


 Yesterday morning at about o'clock George T. Bradley, the coal merchant firm of Benedict & Co.,, discovered crouching on the fence in his garden at 1546 Chapel street, carrier pigeon, which was evidently too exhausted to fly. He tenderly brought it into the house, the bird looking extremely hap py to be thus cared for, and after rest ing in it's cage and being fed it mani fested a return of Vigor, appearing as ever. On the pigeons leg was an aluminium band inscribed IN A 3061S . MT. Bradley will hold the bird until sometime to-day when, if no claimant appears he will set the bird at liberty to take it's own course.

When it became evident that war
between the United States and
Spain could not be averted Ameri-
cans living in Cuba had to flee for
their lives! A massacre of all
Americans living in Cuba was i'm
minent as soon as the Spaniards
knew that war was a certainty.
What a commentary on the Christ
ian civilization of SPAIN" In no
other nation would this condition
exist. A war between any two ma
tions bearing the name of civilized,
excepting Spain, the subjects of
either nation would be safe within
the precincts Of the other as long as
they committed no overt hostile act,
No subject OF Spain need fear for his
life in the United States, even dur
ing actual hostilities between this
country and Spain.

Dervishes recently and scattered
their forces in all directions after
having slaughtered several thousand
of their army. The reyerses to the
English and Egyptian arms that
eliminated in the loss of Khartoum
and the Soudan and the massacre OF
the brave General Gordon and his
followers have never been condoned
or forgotten. The stubborn deter
mination of the English people is to
perform what they purpose. fire
PEELED by unforeseen contingencies
their bulldog tenacity reasserts its
grip. Time, patience, and modern
appliances with such other auxiliary
forces as the genius Of English gen
erals see fit to appropriate will be
found adequate to subdue the fierce
fanatics of the Soudan.
