The History of Sousa's
 Last Great March

The luck of John Philip Sousa Is rapidly becoming proverbial, says an exchange. Everything he composes seems to be just the right thing for the period There is no apparent effort at suiting the composition to the time. The time appears most in- clined to conform to the whims of the com poser, who has given us first the Washing ton Post" and last ''The Stars and Stripes
 There was no sign of war when this last march was composed. MT. Sousa makes 1t a rule to compose one march year. "The Stars and Stripes happened to be the one for this year. Could anything have been more fortunate? The author could not have chosen a better opportunity in the last S5 years. It has been the luck of MT. Sousa to compose a march and a song which, ow- Ing to the war with the Spanards, bids fair to become a national air. It is already nearly as well known as "The Star Spangled Banner It is certainly as well received everywhere. Wherever and when- ever it is played 1t Is always given an ova- tion The only thing against 1t is it's char acter The range is too great and the changes of key too numerous for common use.
 In response to an inquiry sent the author the following interesting little history of The new famous air has been received:
 .oThe story of the Stars and Stripes For ever is as follows: Just before my trip to Europe in 96 I composed the first strain and took it to Europe with me. As you well know, perhaps it Is when a Fellow IS away from home that he gets lonely for glimpse of the starry banner, and his Amer icanism and patriotism increases up to the higest pitch. When I turned my face to- ward our western land began thinking out the rest of the march, and 1t was virtually finished when our ship came into New York harbor. Feeling more patriotic than usual on that day called the piece The Stars and Stripes Forever Its first performance took place at Philadelphia on the 18th of May 1897. The words have since written at the request of De Wolf Hopper for use in 'El Capitan.' Yours sincerely.
 JOHN PHILIP SOUSA."

PARNELL'S nEMORY.

The arrangements made by the
Organizing Committee in connec-
ton with the approaching Parnell
anniversary have by this time made
most rapid progress, and we may
anticipate that the demonstration
to commemorate Ireland's great
leader will be in every respect
worthy of the occasion, says the
Dublin Independent. AS the years
go by the heart of Ireland clings
more devotedly to the memory of
Parnell. 1t will never be forgotten
that to his colossal energy and
genius was due the advance made
by the Home Rule cause, which
would by this time have been
crowned with victory but for the
treachery of those who abandoned
him in the hour of trial. There
fore the anniversary of this year
will, no doubt, compare favorably,
both in numbers and in its thor
oughly representative character,
with any of its predecessors. The
cooperation of the various Irish
railway companies has been Sc
cured, and it has been arranged to
run a special train from Belfast on
October 6. In connection with the
anniversary it will interest Parnell-
ties generally to learn that Mr..
John f. Redmond has consented to
deliver lecture at the Antient
Concert Rooms on the evening of
Ivy Day, October 6, on the subject
of Irish Popular Leaders from
Swift to Parnell." The proceeds
of the lecture will be devoted to-
ward the funds of the committee.
The Lord Mayor will preside, and

ABOUT BRYAN.

The Boston Republic exhibited
the proper spirit in its refutation of
the sneers that some of the stay-at-
home journalists have been hurting
at William Jennings Bryan. From
recent issue we clip the following:
"Mr. Bryan went into the volunteer
army just as other patriotic citizens
went in, from a sense of duty.
He went in to fight his country's
battles, not to do garrison duty. He
did not intend to follow the profess
sion. He responded to an emer-
gency call. The emergency has
passed. The war is over. Mr..
Bryan, who has obligations and
duties in civil life, should be at
once relieved from further military
service and sent home. An admin
istration with any sense of decency
would do this without waiting to
have the suggestion made. Col.
Bryan was two years ago the Demo-
cratic candidate for President of the
United States. Over 6, 500, 900 free
American citizens cast their votes
for him. He is one of the most
conspicuous of the party leaders to-
day. In that capacity he is under
obligations to the people for politi-
cal advice and guidance. He has
positive responsibilities in this rela-
ton which he can not escape or put
aside. To compel his further serv-
ice in the army and thus prevent
him from taking any part in the
is, to say the least, a |
cowardly piece of political trickery
of which no self-respecting man
would be guilty" The people ap-
preciate the patriotism of Mr..
Bryan, and the vaporings of those
who see neither honor or glory in
promptly responding to the call of
ones country only make his posi-
ton the frmer in the hearts of his
countrymen.

1t is generally conceded that
President Mckinley will act in a
common-sense manner with regard
to the Philippine Islands. 1t is an
open secret that he has given in
structions to the United States
Commissioners not to demand the
control of the whole OF the Philip
pines. The expense of an immense
standing army, the effort to control
half-civilized people who know
nothing Of our methods of govern
ment, and who have to be held
down by the strong arm of the
military, and the complications that
would inevitably arise with foreign
powers, all make the annexation of
the Philippines undesirable. A
suitable coaling station is all that
is deemed best to keep. In spite
of the jingoes President Mckinley
does not wish to break away en-
tirely from the early traditions of
our republic, viz: to con6ne our
selves to the Western hemisphere
and let European and Asiatic affairs
strictly alone.

MEXICAN WAR VETERANS.

The gathering of the Mexican
veterans in our city has been a
source of much pleasure to these
old-time warriors. Now, that the
shades of evening are drawing close
around them and their steps are
growing heavy and slow, we delight
in seeing them unite at intervals to
converse together of the days of
long ago. 1t is a time of peculiar
interest, now that so many of their
sons and grandsons have rallied
around the flag and are far from
the land of their sires fighting for
its honor. Noble-looking old men
these are, and the heroes of many
battles, for many of them were not
content to have been in the smoke
and conflict during the '4os, but
afterward fought, each as seemed
right to him, during the Civil War.
They can now rejoice that we are
at peace once more, and that we
may reasonably look for the return
of Our boys and their fathers to the
quiet of their homes and the pur-
suits of industry. Long may such
unions and reunions fourishl

THE RIGHT SPIRIT.

The great interest and friendly
feeling existing in Ireland with re.
gard to the race for the American
Cup is indicated by the following
published in a recent issue of the
Irish Weekly Independent: "Ire-
land has challenged America, and
Uncle Sam must defend the Ameri-
can Cup. Sir Thomas Upton will
build the Shamrock on the newest
lines. She will be manned by Irish
men, and is nominated by an Irish
club. If she should pull off two
out of the three events which COM
prise the struggle for the greatest
sailing trophy in the world, Old
Ireland will have reason to throw
up the cap with a wild hurroo.
England has failed lamentably to
bring back the trophy, and Lord
Dunraven's burst of temper at the
last contest, and his subsequent i'll
judged conduct, left relations more
than strained between British and
American yachtsmen. This com
ing battle of the boats will be the
friendliest fight ever fought out in
Yankee waters. If we are beaten,
we go down before better crafts
men and better sailors; if we win,
we will rejoice in our luck. Sir
Thomas Upton is one of the few
men of a certain class who did not
become beautifully British when
he entered London drawing room
and put a handle to his name. The
majority of his order would call his
boat the st. George, run up the
burgee of some swell British club,
and would throw down the glove to
America in the name of Merrie
England.

SOLDIERS BAD TREATMENT.

There has been a most deter
mined effort on the part of a num-
Der of administration papers to
shield the incompetency and care
lessness that have existed in con-
nection with the hospital staff of
the army But the increased num-
Der of soldiers who have been
stricken down and the protests
made in all quarters have convinced
the people that the War Depart
ment has been guilty of the gross
est carelessness. Commenting on
the matter the New York Telegraph
refers to an appointment made from
that city as follows: "Is President
McKinley's oft asserted sympathy
for the common soldiers bluff and
a dream, or did somebody mix the
appointments in the veterinary
department of the cavalry corps
and the bureau so ably mismanaged
by Gen. Sternberg and his scientific
associates This question is peril
nent by reason of the discovery that
DR.. Huidekoper, one of the sur
geons in charge of the field hospi-
tails at Porto Rico, is a New York
doctor of dogs and horses, with an
occasional lapse into the rebuilding
of the wrecked constitutions of
decayed and in6rm mules. In his
particular branch of medical SCI
ence there is no doubt but DR..
Huidekoper is wise and successful
practitioner. He could cause a
selling platter to return to his better
self as soon as the next man. In
the hyperbole of the day, he might
even be stigmatized as bird. But
after all, man who can cure the
mango in a puppy, or can intelli-
gently prescribe the bolts in a
Hambletonian, is not necessarily
equipped properly to grapple with
the deadly dengue fever and other
diseases that make life in the trop-
les problem. Yet DIR. Huideko-
per is the physician in charge of
the hospitals wherein many hun
dreds of our heroes abroad are wag-
ing battle with zymotic maladies
and commissary food. The two
combined are fatal as a rule, and it
is not understood that DR.. Huide-
koper, the horse doctor, has reduced
the average of deaths. The most |
careful inquiry has resulted in
ascertaining that his chief recon-
mendation for his position was that
he had cured Mrs. McKinley's dog
of certain ills to which dog flesh is
heir
He is now in Porto Rico in charge
of the hospital service for the First
Army Corps, which places the Lou
isville Legion at his mercy. He
has had no practice on human
beings, but is strong advocate of

from the picnic at Phoenix Hill were
sufficient to meet them. This will avoid
the necessity of levying a pro rata tax

conducted all matters connected with the
celebration, the expense account of which
has heretofore been very heavy.
