silver cord is loosed, the golden bowl is
broken, the burning taper of life has
been extineuished, the lips which once
breathed the language of fraternal greet
ings are silent; and we, as brothers,
pause to add q tribute to the memory of
our departed brother and friend, James
buddy.
The night dew that falls, though in silence it
weeps,
Shall brighten with verdure the grave where
he sleeps,
And the tear that we shed, though in silence

Shall long keep his memory green In our
souls.
Brother Duddy was born in Philadel-

AMERICANS
Kept on Fighting-Unlike the
Spanish, they Took No
Midday Meal.

LONDON, March 16.-The Daily Graphic
publishes this morning a letter from q
British naval officer at Manila. under
date of February z, describing the be
ginning of the fighting between the
Americans and Filipinos, which, he says
was due to an attempt on the part Of
the latter to rush an American post.
"The British efficers," be continues,
"were not allowed to land until the day
following the battle, and were even then
prohibited from going to the front, but
on yesterdays battle field 1 saw Filipino
prisoners burying heaps of their dead.
at can not for a moment be doubted
that the Americans fought with gallant
ry and pluck, while the rebels, who were
armed with Mausers and Remingtone.
maintained q stubborn defense. Their
dead bodies testify to this. It is alfo
clear that the Filipinos were astounded
and demoralizsd by the American tao
tics, and the vigorous pursuit the Amer
leans kept up throughout the day,
instead Of following as the Filipinol
expected, the Spanish custom of midday
rest"

near little village called Prado, on
the southern coast. At present there
is discussion in progress between the
general government of Brazil and the
state government of Bahia as to the
ownership of the lands where this sand
occurs. The general government bases
its claim on the fact that, in accordance
with law, it has right to a strip along
the coast 33 meters in width, measured
from half way between high and low
tide, and in accordance with this claim
the government has granted the priv
ilege of removing this sand to an Amer

A RINGING DEFIANCE
To Gamblers and Saloon Keep.
orS
BY the Repu bIican Candidate
For Mayor of Toledo.

TOLEDO, Ohio, March 13, 1S99
To the Citizens of Toledo:
In reply to many questions as to my
position in regard to the enforcement of
the laws, wish to say that, if l am
elected, I will use all the legal authority
vested in the Office of mayor to suppress
gambling and to drlye the gamblers and
''eure thing" operators from the city.
This city has been made . dumping
ground for that class by all neighboring
cities, and it is time We were freed from
them.
will also use all the power vested in
the mayor for the enforcement of the
laws governing the saloon traffic, to the
end that both front and rear doors be
closed during the hours designated by
law, including Sunday.
/ am ready to stand or fall by the
answer the people of this city will give
to the question, "Shall gamblers, saloons
and brothels run our city government
or shall the people rule their own?"
In my opinion. the time has come fol
the citizens of Toledo to answer th'
impudent assertions of the brewers
saloons, gamble and brotbels that the,
,ntrol the city. They certainly will n
if am elected mayor. Let every goot
citizen take off bis coat and work for tn
home and fireside.
Very respectfully yours,
CaAS. E. RUSSELL

Those Boys.

BIB Burdette eays: "There are many
young men who do not work, my son,
but the world is not proud of them. II
does not know their names even; It
simply speak Of them % old 6o-and-so's
boys. Nobody likes them, nobody hates
them; the great busy world doesn't even
know that they are there. So find out
what you want to be and do, my son,
and take off your coat and make . dust
in the world. The buster you are the
less deviltry you will get into, the sweet
or will be your sleep, the brighter and
happier your holidays, and the better
satisfi I'd will the world be with you"

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

A needle machine turns out 500, 600
needles a week.
1t usually takes about five years to
tan the skin of an elephant.
The workable area of coal beds in
Colorado is 100 square miles.
The finest, purest and most nutri-
tious animal jelly known is that made
from elephants tusks.
More than half million lives are
daily dependent upon the efficiency OF
iron and steel wire ropes.
Texas has an annual cotton crop Of
between 100000 and 100000 bales,
and only four small cotton mills.
Judge Wentworth, of Boston, has de-
cided that a laboring man has a lien
against a municipality for work done
on the streets.
The vitalizing power Is the blood, .
drop of which takes but 20 seconds to
go the round Of the body. There passes
through the heart once in every three
minutes an amount Of this precious
fluid equal to all that is contained In
the body.
A very interesting experiment in CO.
operation is to be initiated by the
miners of Northumberland. The pow
der manufacturers have lately raised
the price of powder from four to five
pounds ton. Accordingly the miners
are seeking to establish factory Of
their own which will turn out gunpow-
der at the original price or less.
In 1860 there were 139 silk mills in
the United States, worth something
over 5000 900; in 1890 there were 472,
valued at over $1,000, 900. In 1860 our
manufacturers of silk supplied but
about IS per cent. of the domestic con-
sumption; to-day 1t is estimated that
IS per cent. of the silk goods used in
the United States is of domestic make.

who signed 1t to the number of about
dozen, agreed that in case the reply
