Enough high above the sun of glory glow,
md far beneath the earth and ocean spread,
Round him are icy rocks and loudly blow
Contending tempests on his naked head,
And thus reward the tolls which to those
SUBMITS lead.
This grand poetry, so apropos to his
later career, was evidently very famil
lar to him. He looked specifically for
and found it with no difficulty or hest
tation and read it with fluency that
indicated that he had read it ofttimes
before. He also read it sadly if not in
deed reverently.
In view of his later career, is not the
following moroccan, taken from fervid
and extravagant Lyceum speech made
when he was 80 years Of age, Of great
interest and signiicance? Said he:
MANY great and good men, suffi-
GENTLY qualified for any task they
should undertake, may ever be found,
whose ambition would aspire to nothing
beyond seat in congress, gubernato-
rial or presidential chair, but such be-
long not to the family of the lion or the
tribe of the eagle. What! Think you
those places would satisfy an Alexander,
a Caesar or Napoleon? Never! Tower
ing genius disdains beaten cath; it
seeks regions hitherto unexplCfed, it
sees no distinction in ding story to
story upon the monuments Of fame erect
ed 20 the memory of others, it denies
that it is glory enough to serve under
any chief, it scorns to tread in the foot
steps Of any predecessor, however illus.
trious; it thirsts and burns for distinc-
ton, and if possible will have it whether
at the expense of emancipating slaves
or enslaving freemen.
In attestation of his strong leaning
toward fatalism he once cited to Hern
don the case of Caesar and Brutus, ar
guing that the latter was forced by laws
and conditions over which he had NJ
control to kill the former, and, vice
versa, that the former was especially
created to be disposed of by the latter
and the gifted Herndon adds in poetic

DENvERiN 28 HOURS

Beginning Sunday, February
9th. a new train will be placed
in service between Chicago
and Denver via the Chicago,
Union Pacific & North Western
Line, which will make the
fastest schedule ever main
tanned between Chicago and
Colorado's Capital City.
This train will be known as
"The Colorado Special" and
will leave Chicago via the
Chicago & rth-Western R'y
at 1000 a. m. every day and
reach Denver at 1:30 the follow
ing afternoon, the westbound
time at certain intermediate
stations to be approximately
as follows: De Kalb, II 80 a. M;
Clinton, 1925 p. M; Cedar
Rapids, $3.50 D. M; Belle PLANE,
4:3O p. M; Tama 400 p. M;
Marshalltown, 5:25 p. NJ: Ames
6:15 D. M; Boone, $50 p. M;
Carol, 1926; p. M; Mo. Valley
1880 p. m; Council Bluffs, 11:2O
D. m. U. P. Transfer, 30 p. m.
Omaha 11:55 p. M, all the same
day. Eastbound, this train will
leave Denver daily at $3.50 pm.
and reach Chicago 9:45 the
next evening. AS connections
will be made in the Union
Depot at Denver to and from
trains of all the Colorado lines,
passengers will thus be afford
ed the very best opportunities
for quick transit between
Chicago and all points in Colo
RADIO and the west.
Trains will be vestibuled
throughout lighted with
Pintsch gas, and will consist
of dra wing room sleeping cars,
free reclining chair cars, buffet,
smoking and library cars,
coaches and dining cars serving
all meals en- route. A feature
in connection with the service
of this train, which will be
appreciated by tourists, is that
it will afford an opportunity
for daylight ride through the
progressive and thickly settled
portions of Illinois and Iowa,
which has been impossible
heretofore, as all trains for
Denver have left Chicogo in
the evening.
Daily service to Denver via
The Pacific Limited leaving
Chicago 1870 p. m..will be con-
tinued.

One pound avoirdupois
equals sixteen onnces. Sixty
pounds, or one bushel, equals
nine hundred and sixty ounces.
In one ounce of average wheat
there are 1000 kernels. In
a bushel 1,152,OOO kernels. To
waste bushel of wheat in ten
hours threshing would there
fore require the loss of ninety
six ounces, or 1920 kernels
an hour, or 1920 kernels a
minute, equal to 1 80 ounces.
Now, if thresherman should
thresh on a tarpaulin for a
minute and catch this amount
of grain, the farmer would say
that the machine is wasting
half of the grain; but let us see
and as a good illustration, we
will take the drill tooth of an
ordinary wheat drill. Every
farmer knows there is a large
stream of wheat running down
the drill tooth, and he also
knows that he has to drive very
fast to get a bushel and a half
of wheat throuh "a drill tooth
in A day. Suppose the farmer
was to see such a stream going
over the straw carrier or chatter,
wouldent he go wild? And yet
at this rate, he would only be
losing only one and one half
bushels out of every fifteen
hundred which is about the,
average days threshing in the
United States. The wastage
of grain in threshing by thresh-
ing machines is bugaboo.
Reason this out with the
farmers and chase the bugaboo
away.-Exchange.

HOW THE CLUBS STAND.

LANCASTER, PA, August 2.-(special.)
! Bluebirds downed Manager Rims cham
| rions by the close score OF 3 to 2. 1t was
game chock full of excitement. Both
clubs did brilliant work.
The Lancaster boys claim they were de-
feated by the umpire, and Brennan did
apparently give them a raw deal. Rich
mond had scored one run in the first in
ming Shannon drawing base on balls,
stealing second, and scoring on Har-
groves double. They did not score again
until the fifth, and 1t was in that inning
that the trouble occurred. With two men
out. Dundon singled, and stole second.
Then Klopf sent a hot grounder down
toward first base. Chiles gathered II in,
and slid back to the bag. 1t looked as II
he got there before Klopf. who had been
sprinting like a racer, but Brennan de-
clared the runner safe. Immediately
there was storm Of protests from the
audience, who thought the side had been
retired. Some Of the spectators said I'M
complimentary things. and Brennan add
ed to the uproar by talking back" Dun
don came home on the play. and a mo-
ment later Klopf scored on shannon's
double.
The feature Of the game was the superb
pitching Of Sparks. He allowed but eight
hits, and they were scattered through
seven innings. Sparks was especially eff
fective with men on bases. He succeeded
in striking out six men. Catcher Hess
gave him splendid support Klopf made
both Of Richmord's errors but neverthe-
less played cleverly, accepting seven hard
chances. Dundon again put up a good
game at third. Clausen was the Lancaster |
twirler. He was also effective, allowing |
only seven hits. and the disastrous fifth |
was the only inning in which the oppos-
Ing batsmen could see him to any pur-
pose. The score. which follows, gives the
defaiIq.

MORE TROOPS FOR MERRITT.
some of Those I'm Eastern Camps
May Go to Manila.

| WASHINGTON, August 2.--Although the
War Department officials will not admit
that they had any intention of reinforcing
further General Merritt's forces at Ca
vite, there is reason to believe that some
Of the troops now in Eastern camps who
| desire to see active service will soon find
the opportunity, unless the government
shall change its present plans with re-
spect TO the Philippines.
1t Is believed to be necessary, even If
our claim is limited to the terms named
In the statement submitted to Spain
namely. to the military occupation and
government of the territory on the shores
of the Bay Of Manila-to furnish TO Gen.
eral Merritt larger force than he now
has at his command.
1t is realized that 10000 soldiers can
scarcely be expected TO maintain United
States possession and protect the inhabi-
tants over a territory OF this extent, for
IL must be remembered that the Bay Of
Manila is twenty-five miles deep, from
the entrance at Corregidor Island to the
city of Manila, at it's head.
II will also be necessary to possess and
protect zone extending some distance
back from the city in order to make sure
OF the preservation of the water-works.
THE INSURGENT ATTITUDE
or course, a considerable force would
not be necessary, II the insurgents under
Aguinaldo could be brought to realize
that their interests lie In permitting un-
disputed possession Of this territory by
the United States, but IL is expecting too
much OF the native character TO keep
from them the idea of the rich booty |
in Manila, without an adequate force to |
protect the city.
Then, the extreme heat and rains have |
had an effect on the health Of the troops. |
not TO the extent that IL appeared at /
Santiago, but sufficient 10 require some |
of the men TO be invalided home. and /
their places TO be taken by fresh troops /
from the United States. At present the
large majority of General Merritt's force
Is composed of troops drawn from the
Pacific coast or far Western States II
rs presumed that If he shall be reinforced,
the Eastern troops will be given an OPP
portunity to make the long voyage. as
this is in accordance with the policy Of
The government, to give all the troops
IN opportunity for active service at the
rent.

WILL BE HOME TOMORROW.
The Richmond Club to Open Up Here
with Norfolk.

Manager Wells's baseball team will re-
turn home tomorrow, and In the after
noon will open up stay at home cover
ing two and half weeks. Norfolk will
be the first club to report for slaughter,
and the Richmonds will make an effor.
to get back some of the points lost on
this trip.
With all the apparent slump and chunk
of hard luck, Richmond has done fairly
we'll this trip. The local rooters expected
a hard story, but the first weeks work
made them feel good. To cope with New
ark and Allentown was no easy job, but
Richmond managed to get more than its
share. Reading treated the team to an
awful beating, winning five out Of six
games. The Richmond club was Grip
pied by having Klopf and Dundon on the
sick list, and Charlie Gutenberg out Of
shape. The two Guses had to retire
from the game because Of their accidents
thus weakening the team. Double head
ers were disastrous. on account OF the
clubs condition. Lancaster o. is doing
well, and good games are the result.
The club, however, Is coming home,
and the rooters will have a chance to
Judge for themselves. Norfolk has had
a little hard luck, too, but both clubs are
nearing home. and good. snappy games
may be expected.
Young Howard Holland, the Rich
monder who has just Joined professional
ranks, will report TO Norfolk here to-
and will be assigned to a posi-
ton in the outfeld. He is a good ball
player, and much is expected Of him.
The games will be called at 4:A5 o'clock.
except on Saturday, when the gong will
sound at 4:30 o'clock. Ladies'-day in
is Friday. when ladies will be
