The DELIGHTS of Boyhood.

Id like to be boy again without a
woe or care, with freckles scattered on
my face and hayseed in my hair; I'd
like to rise at o'clock and do hun
dred chores, and saw the wood and feed
the hogs and lock the stable doors; and
herd the hens and watch the bees, and
take the mules to drink, and teach the
turkeys how to swim so that they
wouldn't sink; and milk about a hun
dred COWS and bring in wood to burn,
and stand out in the sun al day and
churn, and churn, and churn; and wear
my brothers cast of clothes, and walk
four miles to school, and get a licking
every day for breaking some old rule,
and then get home again at night and
do the chores once more and milk the
COWS and feed the hogs and curry mules
galore, and then crawl YEARLY upstairs
to seek my little bed and hear dad say:
THAT worthless boy! He isn't worth
his bread" I'd like to be boy again;
a boy has so much fun, his life is just
a round of mirth from rise to set of
sun; guess there's nothing pleasanter
than closing stable doors, and herding
hens, and chasing bees, and doing
evening chores.

a Fatal Accident.

Engineer Arthur E. Williamson has
for IA years guided ponderous locomo-
tives over peri ols places, and has al
ways come home safe. But Wednesday
afternoon he started out in his buggy
on business errand, and was brought
home cold in death. His neckwas bro

the corporate limits of the city. We'd
nesday afternoon at2 o'clock he left
home to buy some lumber for improve
ments upon his home. His family was
much worried when the night wore
away and he did not come back, for he
was a sober man, and his absence under
such circumstances was somewhat un-
usual. Thursday morning his body
was found cold in death. and almost
frozen, in ditch at the foot Of Lum-
Der street, where ii intersects Huger
street. It is not known when his death
occurred, but life had evidently been
extinction long hours. Columbia State.

Home Eappiness.

Probably nineteen twentieth Of the
happiness you will ever have you will
get at home. The independence that
comes to man when his work is over,
and he feels he has run out Of the storm
into the quiet harbor Of home, where he
can rest in peace with his family,
is something real. It does not make
much difference whether you own your
house or whether you have one little
room in that house, you can make that
room a true home to you. You can
people it with such moods. you can
turn to it with such sweet fancies, that
it will be fairly luminous with their
presence, and will be to you the very
perfection of a home. Against this
home none of you should ever trans
gress. You should always treat each
other with courtesy. It is often not
so difficult to love a person as it is to
be courteous to them. Courtesy is of
greater value and a more royal grace
than some people seem to think. If
you will but be courteous to each other
you will soon learn to love each other
more wisely, profoundly, not to say
lastingly, than you ever did before

course? Is there any man who would
now declare another to have been a
better course? With less humanity
and less courage on our part the Span
ish flag instead of the Stars and Stripes
would still be floating at Cavite, Ponce
and Santiago, and chance in the race
of life would be wanting to millions OF
human beings who today call this ma
,ion noble, and who, | trust, Will
live to call it blessed. Thus far have
We done our supreme duty. Shall we
now when victory is won in war and
written in a treaty Of peace and while
the civilized world applauds and waits
In expectation, turn timidly away from
the duties imposed upon the country by
its own great deeds? Ano when the
nists fade away and We see with clearer
vision may we net g" forth rejoicins in
our strength which has been employed
solely for humanity aud always temper
ed with justice and mercy, confident IN
our ability to meet the exigencies
which await Us, because confident that
our course is one of duty, and our cause
that of right.

a TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
The Giving Way Of Huge Tank in
New York.

When dawn lighted up the district
of the devastated collapsing big gas
tank III New York Wednesday morning
Of the Consolidated Gas company a
spectacle of ruin was presented. Twen-
ty-irst street was barricaded with twist
ed and bent iron stanchions, girders
and uprights piled to heighto 25 feet.
Twentieth street was filled with bricks,
household goods and timbers piled high
in one promiscuous mass. All night
long hundreds of men worked assiduous-
ly to discover bodies that might be in
the ruins.
The basement Of the furniture fac
tory Of Henry Fuldner had six feet Of
water. Three men were on raft which
had been foated, searching for the body
of the engineer, who is missing. Pious
Baum was in the basement when
the tank swept away the rear wall of
the building. His body was found un-
der mass Of debris. Seven others are
missing.
The tank that collapsed was about
175 feet in diameter and 160 feet in
height. The iron supports over which
the immense cables ran were about 200
feet in height. The lower tank, into
which the upper fitted, was 25 feet in
height and rested on mason work pit.
The pit was Is feet deep. The build
ers were testing the strength OF the
tank with water pressure. The work
men were preparing to leave the place
when the mason work on the pit crum-
bled away like clay.
1t is said that there were eight mil
lions of gallons of water in the tank at
the time Of the break. The steel plates
of the tank were rent asunder by the
pressure like paper. The great force
of the water vented itself on the
rear walls of the buildings. Avenue A
is all torn away with the exception OF a
part Of the rear Of the gas company's
engine house. The masonarv brick were
thrown into the street and piled into
Railways of houses and buildings. Ire
mendous iron beams and uprights,
swept by the water, were carried away
down Twentieth and Twenty-First
streets, to the river front.
The arms and legs of a man were
found entangled at Twenty-First street.

more gave vent to wild enthusiasm.
Gen. Wheeler referred eulogistically to
the efforts of the president towards pre-
serving peace as long as the country $
honor would permit such efforts and OF
his masterful policy after war was IN
cvitable. Gen. Wheeler paid tribute
to Admiral Dewey, and added: The
army, in CONJUNCTION with the navy, was
ordered to attack and destroy the Span
ish forces at Santiago. In four weeks
that order was obeyed, and its purposes
accomplished. The proud Spanish ma
ton stood suing for peace from the ma,
tion which month before, it had held
up to ridicule aud scorn.
Calls for Maj Gen. Young brought
that officer to his feet with short
speech regarding the conditions Of the
army camps in the south. He said that
no troops in the world were better, more
regularly fed and treated than were the
troops in South Carolina and Georgia.
Gen. Lawton was loudly cheered, but
refused to make a speech. He simply
thanked, on behalf O. his men at San
tiago, the legislature and people OF
Georgia for their tribute to himself. !.
Secretary Alger refused to speak and
the legislature dissolved.
The president held a private recep-
ton in the senate and afterwards a
public reception on the steps Of the ro-
tunda. There were hundreds Of south
erners who crushed and jostled each
other il their anxiety to shake north
ern presidents hand.
Many had come from miles distant,
and when. at 2:15 p. M, the president
left the capitol, there were still hun
dreds bitterly disappointed because they
had not been able to make their way
through the surging throng to get sec
ond's hold on his hands.
The days festivities included a unique
floral parade, which was reviewed by
the president, and reception Wednes-
day night to the distinguished guests
at the Capital City club.
Wednesday night the members of the
Capital City club opened their club
house to the President and Mrs. Nc
Kinley and the guests Of the city. The
occasion was notably brilliant. The
receiving party consisted Of anumbcr Of
Atlanta's representative women and a
large company of club members. The
decorations were flags, American
smilax and American beauty roses.
The late arrivals Wednesday were
Hon. Evan Settle Of Kentucky, who
will speak in the place of Congressman
Bailey, Richmond P. Hobson and Miss
Hobson, and Gov. VOORHEES, Of New Jer-

HORRIBLE NARRATIVE.
The Vile Treatment CT Friars and
Nuns by Filipinos.

The Manila correspondent OF the Hong
Kong Press gives the details of the
shocking treatment of the friars and
other prisoners captured by the insur.
geD.s n the northern part Of the island
Of Auzon.
General Leybe, who was sent by
Aguinaldo to attack the cities Of the
extreme north Of Luzon, sent report
to his chief that he had brought the en-
tire section raided completely under the
control of the Filipinos. Leybe men.
tons the capture of one hundred and
twenty-four friars and lay brothers,
many Spanish soldiers with arms, and
property and silver and gold valued at
$500, 900.
The Press correspondent states that
from Spanish sources have come the re-
ports Of terrible atrocities committed
by the rebels who looted the churches
and several towns. The correspondent
says:
s'The bishop was subjected to the
rrossest indignities. The friars were
beaten with sticks, kicked sad hung up
in the torrid sun for several hours. The
natives were forbidden TO render the
friars any assistance. During the
greatest suffering while hanging hun
CRY and naked, in the burning sun,
Chinese and natives supplied them
food aud water. One aged friar was
placed upon a horses saddle and
Jumped upon until the blood poured
from his mouth and nose. Another,
clothed only in rain coat, wes carried
| in triumph for two hundred yards and
then eudgeled to death amid savage
cries. Nuns in the convent were sub
iected to the NEST shameless treat
ment."

HE LOVED THE SOUTH.
The Pathetic Funeral Of Captain c.
E. Chichester.

One of. the most pathetic funerals,
says the Anderson Peoples Advocate,
and one that appeals to the hearts Of
every old Confederate soldier, and sends
the blood tingling along his veins, was
witnessed in Charleston last Friday
week. 1t was the funeral of Captain
C. E. Chichester, who, although a
Northern man, and went to Charleston
about year before the war began, was
an old Confederate captain and had
died the day before. He had written
down minute directions for his funeral
four years ago, and they were that he
should be buried right under the sha-
dow of the large soldier monument, in
the centre of the confederate plot, in
Magnolia cemetery and that ''the
burial take place, if convedient, at the
close of the day, to terminate about
sundown, )" and that salute suitable
to the rank of Captain Of Artillery be
fired over my grave after all other ser
vices are over, and telling where his
old Confederate captains uniform could
be found to bury him in and then comes
the last, the tenderest, and the most
touching injunction as follows: Just
as the sun is setting, and everything
connected with my burial is finished,
let my friend and brother, Mr.. F. F.
Whilden, or some other proper and
competent person, step to the head Of
the grave, and with his cornet sound
the Tattoo, and then the signal,
Lights Out'" It makes the heart Of
an old soldier grow tender and his eye
moist to read it. Lights out in this
world, but resplendent and eternal
lights shining in the other world for
the brave, gallant, loyal old soldier who
had kept the faith, and "was faith
full unto death" He had loved the
bonnie blue flag" when first it rose,
fair as the morning in all its dewey
freshness. he had loved it, when, like
the sun mounting the heavens toward
the zenith, it huttered in sea of glory,
and waved over many victorious field.
He loved it still when its sun went
down at Appomattox, and its precious
folds, stained with the blood Of heroes,
were furled forever. He loved it to the
end, and was faithful to his trust.
Brave, noble old veteran, we send thee
soldiers salute. Let thy grave be the
Mecca of every old veteran who attends
the reunion in May.

CUBA's NEW RULERS.
Military Governors for the cubans in
Place of Spaniards.

It was formally announced Wednes-
day that the President had designated
Major Gen. Brooke to be the military
Governor Of the island of Cuba. The
new post carries with it all the control
over the military and civil branches of
the island formerly exercised BY the
Captain General under the Spanish re-
gime. Gen. Brooke arrived in this
city to-day from Fort Monroe.
Each of the six provinces Of Cuba
will have its own military Governor,
just as Gen. Wood is now military Gov
ernor Of the province of Santiago, but
all of these will receive their iRstruc-
tions directly from Major Gen. Brooke,
who is in supreme authority OF the is
land.
Thus, in Havana, Gen. Ludlow will
be Governor of the city, but answerable
to Gen. Lee, the Governor Of the prov
ince of Havana, who. in turn, will be
answerable to Major Gen. Brooke,
the Governor of the island. In answer
to question as to when he
intended to assume his new duties Gen.
Brooke replied that he would proceed to
Havana and take charge just as soon as
he could organize his staff and forces:
Such disturbances as occurred in Ha-
vana night before last, it if believed,
may be expected to reoccur there, and
to happen in some Of the other Cuban
cities and towns. And, as the United
States is pledged to restore the reign Of
law and order in Cuba, Gen. Brooke
will be under the necessity of provid-
ing an elaborate system Of administra-
tive machinery in order to hold the dis
orderly elements in check and secure a
proper application Of the laws.
Gen. Ludlow, the Governor Of Hava-
ma is already giving his attention to
the organization of a semi-military
force, to take the place of the orden
publico and garde ciyile, the Spanish
police forces, which maintained order in
towns and country. The repatriation
of these forces recently has left this
country, and particularly the city OF
Havana, exposed to an epidemic Of
crime.
