vowing nevermore to speak to each
other; in day or two the tele-
phone bell rang out violently, and
upon Investigation it was found
to be a call for the young lady,
but she being indisposed sent her
little sister to receive the message.
The fellow failed to recognize the
difference in the voice, being wor-

bis little tale of woe, regretting

When We Were Insurgents.

About a century aud quarter ago
France heard the piteous appeals Of q
people suffering under the unjust rule
of Great Britain, and came to their
aid. After struggling for seven long
yesrs-rather longer than the Flip
mos have been fighting for liberty
under Aguinaldo--in poverty, starva.
ton, distress, these insurgents won,
with the help Of France, freedom from
British rule.
What would these insurgents have
done if France, at the end of the war
of tho revolution, had undertaken to
annex these colonies, had insisted on
providing "a kindly government for
this oppressed people," had declared
to the world that duty and humanity
regard for Christian obligation re-
quired our desCiny should be settled
for us by the power, 5000 miles away
across the Atlantic, which has helped
us to win this fight2 And suppose.
France had sent troops and war ships
to take the territory from which Great
Britain had withdrawn?
Poor, miserable insurgents as our
forefathers were, worA out with seven
years of war, they would have re-
voIted against such interference and
fought against it to the end. -Roch-
ester Union.

patriotism of north and south showed
20 the world a united country and an
invincible army and navy. But now,
lest we enter on a war for subiugstion

to the teachings Of the Father Of his
country, and learn again the lessons
Of right, truth and Americanism as
taught by that great document, his
farewell address.
