NOT POMP.

Harper's Weekly for January %, con-
tains illustrations of the Confederate
and Union cemeteries at Marietta,
showing strikingly the difference, in
point Of condition and general appear
ance, between the two, state brought
about by the circumstance of wealth
on one hand and poverty on the other.
Yet to the dead intended to be honor
ed, what matters it? In this case we
are reminded of the lines in Gray's i'm
mortal "Elegy":
Can storied urn or animated bust,
Back to its mansion call the fieeting
breath?
Can Honor's voice provoke the silent
dust,
Or Flattery soothe the dull cold ear of
Death.
Gould the brave men who sleep in
these cities of the dead speak their de-
sires, we believe that it would not be
for the pomp and embellishments of
earthly glory to keep alive their men,
cries, but that their wish would be that
they live in the hearts of their coun-
trymen. That the South thus honors
her heroes we are sure, and to the
same degree that those of the North
are revered by it.

DEATH OF REV. j. ]. HUNT.

Rev. John J Hunt, one of the oldest
citizens of Marietta, both as to years
and length of time which he was a resi-
dent of this place, passed peacefully
away Monday morning at his residence
on Cherokee street The immediate
cause of his death was paralysis, super
induced by old age. his age at the time
Of his death being SO years. Mr.. Hunt
was born in Athens, Ga, Jan. /, 1910.
He graduated from the University
of Georgia, then Franklin College, in
1927. Entering the, Episcopal minis

after the town was organized, in Octo-
Der, lS47.
He was in charge of st. Phillips
Church, Atlanta, in its early days.
Leaving the ministry and devoting
his talents to teaching, for which he
was well lifted both rs to requirements
and natural gifts, he became to be a
power in his chosen profession and
many are the men in active life here
and elsewhere who, under his direction.
received their moral and mental train
lng. His christian character and ripe
scholarship were a benediction to the
boys and young men who were so fortu-
nate as to be thrown in contact with him.
His disposition was unassuming and re-
firing, and for this reason he did not
take an active part in public life ana
for several years past helived in almost
total seclusion.
His wife preceded him to the beyond
about Is years ago, and his daughter,
Mrs. Ford, few months ago. Mr..
Hunt leaves surviving him two sons,

THE FIRST CONFLICT.

The unexpected has happened and
the overt act as been taken and the
first blood has been shed to carry out
McKinley's imperial policy of expan-
sion, conquest and coercion.
The first battle between the United
States troops and the Philippine insur-
gents began Sunday evening at the
outposts around Manila, caused by the
firing of Nebraska sentry at Santa
Mesa upon Filipinos, who were deliber-
ately crossing the line after repeated
warnings, the evident purpose of draw
ing our fire. The first shot from the
American sentry was evidently accept
ed as a prearranged signal, for imme-
diately the Filipinos began a terrific
fusilade along the entire line The
Americans returned the fire, and the
battle was kept up through the night.
Dewey brought his war ships into play
and fearful destruction was the re-
suit. The American soldiers fought
bravely and drove the insurgents back
ten miles. Careful estimates place the
the Filipino losses at 1000 dead, 5000
wounded, and 5000 taken prisoners.
The Americans had about 81 killed and
125 wounded.
The insurgents are in full retreat
and General Otis has the situation I'M
der full control. The Filipinos cannot
stand before the American fire.

Livingston, May 1.-THE Rocky
Mountain club, a commercial organ
ization in this city, passed a resolution
at its meeting this evening and at
tempted to reflect public sentiment on
the troubles in the Bear Gulch mining
camp. So many industries have been
tied up by useless litigation in this
county that business men are getting
weary of the constant grief and are
hostile to those who meddle with the
concerns of those who are attempting
to develop the mines here. The reso-
luton is intended to counter any un-.
favorable impression that may have
gone abroad regarding the light in
which investors are held in this county
This is what was said:
Resolved, That it is the sense of this
club that due encoura cement be given
to every investment of capital in the
industries of Park county for the prop
er development, and that we condemn
the action of persons who attempt to
interfere with the property vested
rights of those engaged in such devel-
ODment.'

EXPLORING THE AMAZON
THERE'S A FINE STRETCH OF CoUN-
TRY UP THERE.
Report of Commander Todd, Who Made
the Journey Far Up as
Yukutis, Peru.

Washington, May 1.-THE navy de-
partment has received from Comrr1an-
der Todd of the Wilmington an inter-
esting account of the remarkable voy-
age of exploration up the Amazon river
made by that vessel in April last. The
Wilmington was instructed by the navy
department to push on up the great
river and ascertain how far it was nav
igable. Captain Todd reports that he
ascended to Yukutis in Peru, which is
about 2100 miles up the river This
voyage was made. as he says, against
an adverse current averaging three
knots for the entire distance.
Manos at the junction of Rio Negro
with the Amazon, has heretofore been
regarded as the head of navigation for
steam vessels. and from that fact it
has grown to be a prosperous city of
10000 Inhabitants. Consequently the in
tention of Captain Todd to ascend the
river above that point caused conster-
nation, and in the end, as revealed by
subsequent reports, led to some adj
verse demonstrations against the Amer
lean consul and against the native pi-
lots who assisted the Wilmington's
commander to make the voyage.
Captain Todd succeeded, notwith-
standing these obstacles, in ascending
the river for 1000 miles above Manos.
and had it not been for lack of fuel he
could have steamed about 800 miles
further he believes. AS it was, the
Wilmington when it entered the ANA
zon from the Atlantic ocean was with
in about 400 miles of the PACIFIC and
well into Peru before she turned back
The possibilities of the successful nav
nj hitherto
known interior of South America re-
vealed by Captain Todd's voyage will
be of the greatest commercial import
ance. Captain Todd showed that the
Amazon. like the Mississippi, is SO
changeabl in its channels as not to
permit of successful charting, SO that
expert pilots will always be required.

smaller pieces of property. a.. were finally

The claim that Mr.. Waddingham was
the largest individual land owner in the
United States is. according to Mr.. Winter,
well founded. In New Mexico alone he
owned nearly 100000 acres of land. On
the San Pablo ranch Mr.. Waddingham
had al the time of his death &c, 900 head of
cattle and on the Pedro ranch 5000 head.

Every Mine Aboue Wallace Closed.

Wallace Idaho May 17.-Judge May
hew this evening denied the applica-
tion for a writ of habeas corpus for
the two county commissioners, Boyle
and Stimson, confined at Wardner for
completely in the recent rioting. In
rendering his decision he denied every
material contention of the applicants
Their main hope was based on the
contention that a suspension of habeas
corpus was a right of the legislative
branch of the government rather than
the executive unless delegated by the
former in the same manner as other
laws are passed. Mayhem held this to
be erroneous.
Owners or representatives from all
the leading Canyon creek and Mullan
mines are here to-day and will stand
solidly by the state officials. One of
them said: I'VE furnished those men
work at $3.50 a day when lead was
$3.50. and we were barely paying ex
penses. Now, when we have a chance
for good profit they shut us down
by their unlawful acts. and we feel
that such men don't deserve work"
Every mine above here is closed or
will be tonight.

SPeSiai bispatch TO the Standard
Livingston, Mont, May 17-Liying-
ston breathes easier tonight, The
trouble at Bear Gulch is ended for the
time being at least and six wheels are
turning again in the camp. which is ex-
pected to be great mining center dur
ing the coming year.
Sheriff Young came down the Park
branch this evening, having in charge
man named Jack Lang, who is under
arrest for blowing up the shack of Pat
rick Dougherty, with whom the Rear
Gulch company is in dispute over min
ing claims. Another of the alleged
dynamiters, Ole Olson, will be arrested
tomorrow. The county officials saw
that the matter will be sifted to the
bottom and the parties guilty of the
attempt on human life will be brought
to justice. A great deal of work 10
wards that end has been done a]reaav
ana the men suspected of violence will
have hard work to evade justice if the
evidence now at hand is as good as it
looks ~
The Bear Gulch mines started up this
iAiA,e oitei having Deen closed down
Tor a few days pending the settlement
of the trouble over the claims. Ma
chinery arrived for a 40-stamp mill To-
day and this will be put in on the
Revenue claim, which is counted one of
the best in the gulch.
Sentiment is still divided, but it is
not likely that there will be any more
friction and the law will take its course
and settle all the differences. But the
parties are on the grounds and a new
mining company is being formed which
will try to find room in the new min
ing camp.
Business men here are pleased over
the prospect of an early settlement of
the trouble at Bear Gulch, and it is
earnestly hoped that further trouble
may be averted
