OUR NEW NATIONAL HYMN.

We are marching ON to glory with the
Bible in our hands,
We are carrying the Gospel to the lost
i'll foreign lands;
We are marching on to glory, we are
going forth to save
With the zeal of ancient pirate, with
the prayer of modern knave;
We are robbing Christian churches in
our missionary zeal,
And we carry Christ's own message in
our shells and bloody steel;
by the light Of burning roof-trees they
may read the Word of Life;
In the mahgled forms of children they
may see the Christian strife;
We are healing with the Gatling, we
are blessing with the sword
For the Honor of the Nation and the
Glory of the Lord.
Then march on, Christian soldiers.
with sword and torch in hand,
And carry free salvation to each be-
nighted land!
Go, preach Gods Love and Justice with
steel and shot and she'll
Go, preach a future Heaven and prove
a present Hell!
Baptize with blood and fire, with every
guns hot breath
Teach them to love the Father, and
make them free in Death;
Proclaim the newer Gospel-the cannon
giveth peace
Christ rides upon the warship his army
to increase,
So. bless them with the rifle and heal
them with the sword
For the Honor Of the Nation and the
Glory of the Lord.

STORY OLE A SLAVE.

To be bound hand and foot for years by

was made free. He says: MY wifo

she could not turn over in bed alone
After using two bottles of Electric Bit
tiers, she is wonderfully improved ana
able to do her own work" This SUI
preme remedy for female diseases cares
nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy
headache, backache, fainting and dizzy

SHOULD A WIFE BE YOUNGER
THAN HER HUSBAND?

"CarisabeF' in the Baltimore Sun takes
issue with Shakespeare, whose own lm
happy experience with q wife older than
himself, made him say, Let still the
woman take an elder than herself"
This calls to mind an incident that came
under the writer's observation. Two
young men who held prominent places
had married wives much older than
themselves. One OF them-a Mr.. W..
let us call him-not thirty. had married
a widow with a grown daughter 4
friend, who knew nothing of his marital
relations said to him one day: do
you know " in the Treasury Depart
mentl" The answer was that he knew
him very well. The visitor then said:
Il cannots understand how a man OF
his talesf, who might have had his pick
OF young and lovely women, could marry
widow nearly twice as old as d. IS.
Can YOU" The gentleman said: lie
loved her and love knows no age Z
Tlhere,lpon the visitor proceeded to give
his opinion-and it wasn't very good
one-of any young man who would be
idiot enough to marry Il woman older
than himself. lie thought his friend
uncommonly silent, but attributed it 10
fine fact that he had work to do, and
took his departure. Imagine his conster-
nation, when at White House reception
a few days later, Mr.. W. called TO
him. introduced him to IA lady old enough
to be his grandmother as my WIFE,
and then introduced his step-daughter.
Every word of the conversation the pre-
vious week came back to the man in
troduced, and he beat retreat as soon
as he could politely do so. The moral
of this story is: Don't talk about mar.
rying widows or old maids to any man
until you have seen his wife.

CAUSE OF NoRToN's DEATH.
Information Received by District
Attorney Jones.

District Attorney Jones yesterday re-
ceived a letter from District Attorney
James C. Rives, of Los Angeles, Cal,
containing information concerning the
death of John J. Norton, son of NJ. j.
Norton, of Wyoming avenue, who was
found dead in his room in a Los An
geles hotel on the morning Of Feb. 1S
last There was $65 in Nortons pock-
cts at the time.
The immediate cause of death was
congestion of the lungs, due to a cold
and the effects of Illuminating gas, Of
which there was a considerable guam
titY in the room when the body was
found. The day before his death Nor
ton informed acquaintances that he
was on his way to Tuscan, Arizona.
While the circumstances surrounding
Norton's death were not particularly
suspicious, District Attorney Rives
promised to make a thorough investi-
cation and report the result to Mr..
Jones at the earliest date possible.
