A SOLDIERS HONOR.

1t is refreshing to read this story of
of the late Col. Egberg of the Twenty
second infantry, that stands out in such
striking contrast to the frequently pub
lished news stories about the men who
use the bankruptcy law to free them
selves of a legal obligation to pay their
just debts.
Years ago, when Col Egbert was sta
toned at a western post, he became in
terested in a mining scheme which he
honestly believed to be a promising
one, and in which he induced some
of his friends to invest their money
with him. The scheme failed and the
money invested in it was lost For the
losses sustained by his friends no legal
responsibility rested upon Col. Egbert
and they did not blame him for them
since they knew that he, as we'll as they,
had been deceived by appearances and
had lost. But he felt in honor bound to
make good their losses. Every month
he laid aside a certain amount from
his salary, which he apportioned
among his friends who had been with
him in the mining scheme. They pro-
tested, saying that they had regarded
the venture as a purely speculative one
and in no way held him responsible.
But their protests did not affect his
resolve. 1t took the best part of his
life to save out of his salary a sum
equal to that which his friends had lost.
When at last his self-imposed duty was
done and he might have enjoyed his
remaining years, he was ordered to
the Philippines, and there fell in battle
at the head of his regiment His
widow is in Manila with her daughter
The latter is teaching a small school,
The late coloners son has been com
missioned a lieutenant.
This is the life story of man who
gave the best part of his life in his
country's service, and the government
is now asked to pension his widow with
800 per month. 1t is not too much, and 1t
will be endorsed by the people who have
a true appreciation Of heroism, patriot
ism and d high sense of the honor that
directed the life of Col. Egbert Even
among men whose scruples are finer
than those of the majority of mankind
there are precious few who would have
taken upon themselves so onerous an
obligation, which, by neither legal nor
moral right, belong to him.

BETTER AND CHEAPER LIGHT.

Electricians throughout the country
are watching with interest the devel-
opment Of a new form of electric light
which it is claimed is to revolutionize
present conditions. Electrical illumi-
nation has come to play so large a part
in the economy of daily life, that any
invention which may have the effect
of cheapening the cost of electric light
ing by increasing the efficiency Of the
lamp, or of improving the color or
quality of the light itself, must COM
mand a certain degree of popular in
terest. These attributes would seem
to belong to the recent invention of
Prof. Walter Nernst of the University
of Gottingen, a young man who is
known by his published works as a
leading authority on applied chemistry,
and an original thinker and worker in
the field of physical science. The prob
lem undertaken by Prof. Nernst was
to find an incandescent fflament or
body which would stand a much higher
temperature than carbon, one that
would be less sensitive to variations
of pressure, and, if possible, work with
out being sustained in a vacuum
This he has been able to do, and has
combined them in lamp which is
claimed to possess many advantages
over the electric light in common use.
The new lamp cannot only compete
with the carbon filament at all ordi-
nary pressures to which the latter is
adapted but in the higher pressures it
has the field practically to itself.
Though not at present a perfected in
vention, it is entitled to the interest
which belongs to a discovery that in
wolves a radical departure from ex-
listing methods, and points out new
direction in which future progress is
likely to be made. 1t should act as a
stimulus to American inventive skill
which shall result in still another new
illuminant.
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-12-13

from the east or north regard both the
crime and the failure to punish.
Material considerations, however are
beside the real question. The punish
ment began with the crime. 1t is i'm
possible that such a brutalizing specta-
Gle as was witnessed by almost the
whole population that day, could pass
without a permanent lowering of the
moral status of the city, Children, ever
susceptible to the worst example, Will
be corrupted and hardened to suffering,
familiarized with the disgusting details
of the crime and made Indifferent to It's
horrors Human nature cannot be
changed One of the most effective
things ever said against these lynch-
ings was the anecdote told of the nine
year-old boy whose misfortune 1t was
to witness the lynching of negro, and
who remarked afterward that he had
seen a man hanged, and now he would
like to see one burned. Such is the cor
ruptive influence of example. In more
or less degree this Maysville lynching
must debase every one who witnessed
or heard of it, The consequences of
familiarity with lawlessness cannot be
evaded
That the horrid deed was not ap
proved of by citizens of Maysville in
general, no one will question. 1t was
that no one attempted to control at the
time, but which should not be allowed
to escape repression Members of the
mob though prominent business
men," are said to have been among
them, should be taught what it is to
blacken the good name of their home
and their state. If public sentiment will
not bring about, as it should, their trial
and conviction, they should be made to
feel the weight of public opinion. 1t is
impossible that in a Christian city like
Maysville the good people will permit
the whole citizenship to bear the blame
of condoning the crime Let them rise
in protest. Let them attempt to secure
the arrest and conviction of the mob
bers. IF they cannot do that let the
guilty be visited with the condign pun
ishment that society is more powerful
than courts to inf1ict.
The subject is a most painful and
trying one, but it would be a greater
scandal and greater wrong to ignore
it than to take it up and punish the
criminals.

o men of England, as again
Ye form your ranks in war; array,
Be this your thought; I'VE are the men
OF Agincourt and Malplaquet.'
What e. er your fathers did of old,
Their blood in you again shall do
Proud Of a birthright all unsold,
Ye shall create that right anew.
o men of England, all alone,
Ye stand, as once before We stood,
When Spain's imperial power was thrown
Again your puny walls of wood.
Whate'er your centuries of toll
Have brought of liberty and rest
To other lands is now the foil
Their kings will thrust against your
breast.
The Tartar with his countless horde
Winds Ger his drearY, snow-clad plain,
His right arm brandishing a sword,
His tongue commanding peace foreign.
The German lifts his great mailed hands
And calls upon his Rhenish god
To witness how for peace he STANDS,
While mighty armies load his sod,
The Gaul, with never-dying hate,
Stands watching whileye take your way
From Cairo's fever-keeping gate
To Delagoa's distant bay.
These be the men that pirate of wrongs;
These be the lords that fam would
dare
To bind you when they draw the thongs
Which tie their peoples to despair.
But let their cursed millions yelp
Like hungry wolves behind the back;
1 think the tawny lions whelp
Win little heed the snarling pack.
God and my right raise we the cry;
Ye take no less, we ask no more;
And men Of England yet can die
As men of England died of yore.
God and my rightr-and let them heed
Full well the words; whateer befall,
See to it that the Dutchman's breed
Shall learn their meaning once for all.
o. men of England, prove again,
While time shall last and strength en-
dure
Ye are the men who were the men
OF Malplaquet and Agincourt.

THE MAYSvILLE LYNcHING.

1t is q bold statement, indeed, that is
being made by some of the southern
papers that nothing will be done toward
the arrest and conviction of the leaders
of the lynching mob at Maysville, KY.
And yet it is true that all things point
to lack of disposition to bring such
a case to punishment over in Kentucky
Tennessee, Ohio and Indiana. The
Maysvllle case was particularly afro
cious, but the principle is the same in
all of them.
1t is encouraging to observe that the
better sentiment of the people outside
the lynching localities is against such
violations Of law and humanity, and
all the reputable press in the South as
well as If the North, are outspoken in
denunciation Of it.
The Louisville Courier Journal has
for years taken bold stand on this
question. and it is unsparing now in its
condemnation of the MaysvilIe horror.
1t says;
The fact that such a horror could be
perpetrated in one of the Oldest and
richest cities Of Kentucky will be a
hUghting memory for generations, The
people of Maysyille will feel it and
suffer for it, and all the people of Ken
lucky must also bear the burden. This
crime win affect material interests as
well. 1t viii deter capital from coming
into the state from elsewhere, and II
will discourage home investment. A
Louisville capitalist commenting upon
this matter yesterday, spoke of a great
property in which he wished to invest,
but said such an outbreak Of lawless-
ness as this warned him off. If Ken
tuckian feels like this, how must man
