SWEETHEART

Perhaps the morning never dawned
on a sadder scene than on July 4th,
'63. when over the bloodsodden field
of Gettysburg the light began to break.
Could all the history of the wounded
and dead have been written never Ee-
fore had been such a chronicle of ro-
nance and tragedy, but it was not;
only now and then a leaf, as it were,
has been written and preserved-this
one by an army nurse.

Bicycle Stories.

Personally. I'm getting tired of hearing
how cyclists in Africa have been chased
by roaring lions, says an English writer.
A new story has come from Berlin of two
wheelmen on a tandem having been chas-
ed sixty miles by a wild horse. The rea
son they escaped was because the horse
tired. This, perhaps, isnt wholly a lie.
Horses are often much interested in BIZ
cycles, and viii follow long distances, ac-
tuated by curiosity. 1 have myself, in
Western Africa, been followed many miles
by an inquisitive horse, and it was with
the utmost difficulty, after peltng The
brute with grass-tufts, that l got him to
turn back. There are two cyclists in
Calcutta who have story how they were
once chased and stoned by monkeys in
the Bengal jungle. 1 have myself a yarn
about being chased by a tiger in the Ben
gal jungle; but 1 tell it only in after-dn-
ner speeches. when the audience is not too
critical. Ii Is awkward otherwise when
man cold-bloodedly asks: And was
that story really true?"

ADMIRAL DEWEY,s RETURN.

No time is fixed for the return of Ad-
miral Dewey, but Rear Admiral Watson
has been ordered to Manila, and he will
assume command of the Asiatic Squad
ron whenever Admiral Dewey decides to
come home. There are conflicting reports
about the condition of the admiraPs
health, but it is probable that If his phys
ical condition were not good he would have
no hesitation in relinqushing the COM
mand of the squadron. 1t is certain that
as long as he is not threatened with Sc
rious Illness he will not think of leaving
Manila until peace is declared in the Phil
ippines. He is a man who places duty
before everything else, and, as he is a
member of the peace commission, he will
remain at the post of duty as long as
there is need for his services.
There is no doubt as to the kind of re-
ception he will receive when he reaches
this country. If he lands at San Fran
cisco he will have an ovation all the way
across the continent. Every town along
the route he takes to New York Will in
sist on giving him a greeting that will
show the esteem in which he is held by
his fellow citizens. In New York prepara-
tons are already being made TO give him
a dinner to cost $50 a plate The purpose
is TO make il the greatest banquet ever
given in that city. The banquet, how
ever, will be only one of the ways which
will be adopted to show him how greatly
he is appreciated by a grateful and adj
mring people.
The admiral is a modest man and no
doubt would like TO avoid the demonstra-
tions which will be made in his behalf,
but he understands that he will not be
permitted TO have his way in the mat
ter. Therefore he viii have to endure
the dinners. the speech-making, the pa
rades and other demonstrations in his
honor
If he were ambitious for political hon
ors he would have no difficulty in find
ing supporters for the highest Office in
the gift of the people, but he has already
announced that he has no desire to enter
politics The positive manner in which
he declined to consider the question of
becoming a candidate for President when
he was approached on that subject some
time ago at Manila leaves no room to
suppose that he will put himself in the
hands of the politicians. The proud POSI-
ton he has is far more satisfactory to
him than any civil Office to which he
could be elected. 1t is safe TO say, there
fore, that he will remain at the head OF
the navy until the age of retirement and
as much longer as the people desire to
have him fill that position.

MonE rIGHrING NEcEssARY.

According to the reports from Washing
ton the President was confident last Sat
urday that the fighting in the Philippines
would be over practically within forty
eight hours. He had very good reasons
for thinking that the insurrection was
about at an end The Manila dispatches in
dictated as much. The fighting is still COINS
on, however, and It may continue for sew
eral weeks. or it may come to an end sud
denly. 1t looks as if one more important
victory would be necessary to convince the
insurgents that their cause is hopeless.
The President was asked last Saturday
why il was that the fighting was contin-
ued while the negotiations for peace were
in progress. He said that the Filipinos mis-
interpreted every effort we made to deal
with them kindly. They mistook our len
iency for weakness and concluded that if
they but held out long enough they could
have peace on their own terms. This is a
satisfactory explanation of the action of
Gen. Otis in pressing the war vigorously
while the parleying for peace is going on.
All of the recent dispatches from Gen.
otis makes the impression that the insur-
rectiOn is steadily growing weaker, and
that the surrender of the Fiiipinos cannot
be delayed very much longer But if the
Fiipinos were to get the idea that we
were anxious for peace-so anxious that
we were wiling to make great concessions
to get it-they would abandon all idea of
surrendering, at least for the present. IL is
thorafora FOR
that the war shah be continued with all
of the energy that Gen. Otis can put into
1t.
One reason probably why the insurgents
are delaying the peace negotiations is that
they hope that the rainy season, which is
now close at hand, will be of great advant-
age to them. They know that during that
season our troops will not be able to do
much more than defend ManiIa-that they
will have to be placed in barracks, in all
probability, to save them from serious i'll
ness. 1t may be their purpose to try to
strengthen their army during that period
by getting some of the tribes which have
not yet taken part in the war to join them
The way to prevent that and to thorough
ly dishearten them is to press the fighting
vigorously. About the only thing that they
respect is force, and the sooner we con-
vince them that we are very much in
earnest and that we have the power to
compel them to recognize our authority,
the sooner will the war be over. In pre-
dieting last Saturday that the war would
be ended in forty-eight hours the President
was too sanguine, but judging from Gen.
Otis dispatches, the Filipinos viii not be
able to hold out many days, if no misfor-
tune befaHs our forces

Eve in Pawn.

A business man from Baltimore found
himself in a peculiar predicament the
other day, says the New York Press. He
visits New York about once month. He
sleeps with his glass eye in a tumbler. The
there friend found it one morning. The
sight suggested a practical joke-put the
eye in Mr.. KS overcoat pocket Done!
When the friend departed, being short of
money for the moment, he pawned his own
oveTcoat for So. In the afternoon there
came an urgent telegram from Mr. X
who had been unable 10 leave his room on
account of the missing eye, and whose
frame of mind was all distorted and warp
ed. The friend frankly confessed: "Bill. I
meant it only as simple joke You will
find your eye in your overcoat pocket. But
it was not there. sit must be, because |
put il there myself" urged the joker The
coat was held up by the tail and shaken
by thunder! / wonder if l could have put
it in my own coat2' where's your coat?''
1--WE pawned il; l didn't want to borrow
and needed few dollars" How much
is it in for?" Ten dollars" Mr.. X pro-
duced $40 and the coat was redeemed. The
eye was in the inside pocket He, careful
ly washed it. slipped II into place and
walked out after twelve hours of solitary
confinement.

In an East Cleveland home lives a col

who makes herself generally useful about
the house, says the Cleveland Plain Deal

but she hasn't a bit of ambition to learn
anything beyond her simple duties She
is a homely girl with wide mouth and
remarkably large feet.
There are two little children in the

more than to be permitted to sit and lis

The fees which are received by New
Jersey under her remarkably liberal cor
poration laws constitute a considerable
part of the revenues Of the Office Of the
secretary of state. The fees for filing
certifcatesi Of Incorporation during the
month of April amounted TO S5s, 05S. The
charges are based upon the amount of the
proposed capitalization. The other day
corporation attorney hit upon shrewd
scheme by which it was hoped TO comply
with the law and at the same time avoid
the payment of heavy fees for the filing.
An agent presented a charter of COM
pany having a capital stock of 100000,
with the privilege to the directors to in
crease the stock 20 $25,oOO,OOO Now, the
fee for a 100000 corporation is $55, and
for $35,O0O,OOO corporation is $1,000. If
the charter in question had been accepted
and filed, the directors would at once have
increased the capital stock to $3.50 900.
thus saving 1896 in fees. The corpora
ton clerk, however, refused to accept the
certificate, and the matter was appealed
TO the attorney general 1t would be
something in the way of retributive JUS
tice if it Should be found that the clerk
would have to accept the certificate az
originally presented with the $35 fee. The

as New Jersey does deserves to be vic

II is very unfortunate that the reunion
programme at Charleston should have
been marred by the sticking of the cruiser
Raleigh on the harbor bar. There must
have been some miscalculatiou on the part
of the pilot, since deeper ships than the
Raleigh move freely into and out of the
harbor 1t is to be hoped that the ship
will be speedily, extricated from her pre-
dicament. and will go in and receive the
royal welcome which is awaiting her at
