A PRAYER.

And in thy majesty ride prosperously,
because of truth and meekness and
righteousness, and thy right hand shall
each thee terrible things. xiv.
Almighty God eternal source
OF every arm we dare to WELD,
Be thine the thanks, Hs thine the force,
On reeling deck or stricken field;
The thunder of the battle hour
Is but the Whisper Of thy power.
Thine is our wisdom. thine our might:
Oh. give Us mure than strength and
skill.
The calnness born Of sense of right,
Heroic competence of will
To keep the awful tryst with death,
TO know thee in the cannon's breath.
By thee was given the thought that
bowed
All hearts upon the victor deck,
When high above the battles shroud
The white flag Hu:tered o'er the
wreck,
And thine .Le hand that checked the
cheer
In that wild hour Of death and fear.
o Lord of loye! be thine the grace
To teach, amid the wrath of war,
Sweet pity for huInbled race.
Some thought of those in lands afar,
Where sad-eyed women vainly yearn
For those who never shall return.
Great Master of earth's mighty school,
Whose children are Of every land,
Inform with love our alien rule
And stay us with thy warning hand,
II, tempted by imperial greed,
We in thy watchful eyes exceed
That, in the days to come. O Lord!
When we ourselves have passed away,
And all are gone who drew the sword,
The children of our breed may say,
These were our sires who. doubly great,
Gould strike. vet spare the fallen state.
IS. Weir Mitchell, in Harpers Weekly.

Almost Unanimous,

The demand that we shall keep the
whole group of islands we have con-
quered is now almost unanimous.
Those who had far-fetched moral scru-
pies as to our right to insist on keep
ing all the Philippines under the terms
Of the protocol have taken different
view since they were surrendered to
our armed forces before the cessation
of hostilities was proclaimed in the
York Herald.

REVOLUTION IN SALVADOR
Two Weeks of Pence Was Enough
for Central Amcrirn.

New York. Nov, ia cable dispatch
received in this city from Libeltad, Nj
ctragua, states that revolution has bro
ken out in Salvador.
1t is only a fortnight since Salvador.
Honduras and Nicaragua joined their d"--
TIMES and formed the United States OF
Central America. Merchants and com.
mcrcial men in thi, city who are famil-
lar with affairs in Central America, how
ever. were not surprised when Informed
that a revolution i'll Salvador was reported
To have broken out.
While the federation OF the three coun-
tries was approved and carried out by
the presidents and commissioners APP
pointed from each country to draw up a
constitution, the people OF Salvador have
not been enthusiastic over the scheme,
particularly as it appears that the inan-
cial burdens OF the new state will fall
most heavily upon them.

Washington, Nov. l5.-Three of the

OF justice and an appointment for CON
ference with the officials was made. The
refugees are K. II. Bunting, United States
commissioner and justice OF the peace;
John Il. Melton, chief OF police, and {. II.
Gilbert, superintendent OF city carts
According to their statements, all were
seized without warrant and escorted to
the railroad station by the armed and
icering mob who shouted all sorts OF in
suits after them as they marched along.
"White niggcrs' appeared to be the least
insulting OF the names with which the
crowds greeted them ut every step.
Once on the train they were told in for
ciblc language that ii ever again they set
loot in Wilmington they would be Shot
ON sight. They pleaded not guilty to
every charge brought against them and
insisted they were run out Of the state
for the single reason they were repubh-
cans and refused, at the bidding OF the
irresponsible mob, to surrender the right
of franchise.

The London Times estimates the wh"a t
crop Of the United Kingdom at u 100000
