Secretary Day intends to resign his
office in fewsrdays to accept posi-
ton upon the peace commission. Mr..
Day was almost unknown when he
accepted the office of assistant secre-
tary of state, but he filled that inn
portant position so well that when the
secFetary's position became vacant his
succession to it was a matter Of course.
He will leave that office one of the best

President Mckinley seems detex-
mined to draw the color line on the
peace commission. Upon the declina-
ton of Justice White to serve, he
promptly offers the place to Senator
Gray. If the latter is unable to accept
the honor, perhaps Governor Black, in
view of Colonel Roosevelt's aggressive
ambition for gubernatorial honors,
might be induced to consider it..

The Spanish Cortes is in session, and
Premier Sagasta asks it for power to
surrender colonies, presumably Cuba
and Porto Rico. 1t is very polite in
Sagasta to prefer this request, but he
need not have troubled himself. The
matter is not one over which the Cortes
has any control. Neither has Premier
Sagasta. Cuba and Porto Rico are te
.allgintents and purposes as completed,
separated from the Spanish crown az

The official records of the war de-
partment, as far as completed, show
that there were SO officers and 231 en-
listed men of the army, 264 in all, killed
in battle during the war with Spain.
This is almost exactly the number of
lives lost With the Maine. These
casualties include all the lives lost by
the army in the battles in the Philip
pines as well as those in Cuba and
Porto Rico. The percentage of officers
killed is strikinsly large, and lis said to
be unprecedented in the battles of the
world. The contrast lis especially
striking in the case of the recent battle
of Omdurman, where, although the loss
of life was heavy, the list of killed in
cluded only one officer of the British
army.

There's a shadow on the grass
That was never there before:
And the ripples, as they pass;
Whisper OF an unseen oar:
And the song we knew by rote
Seems to faiter in the throat:
And a football, scarcely noted, fingers
near the open door.

Now are messengers of fate;
And the blessing held the best
Cometh not OF comes too late.

Not blown leaf beckons back.
