Dying with the Boots On.

When Col. ''Tom" Powers was killed
by being thrown from an Atlantic City
train while crossing the Delaware river
bridge the other day, many persons mar
veled at the fact that the shoes had been
torn from his feet. Strange as it may
SEEM this is nothing unusual. Most of
those who were killed in the wreck at
Hatfield last Sunday were bereft of shoes
and in one corner of the improvised
morgue was a large pile of unclaimed
footwear that had been picked up about
the wreck. In commenting on this yes
terday an old railroad engineer said: "a
man who is killed in railroad accident
seldom dies with his boots on. | don't
know why this should be- but it is a
fact. 1t is particularly true in the case
of a man who is struck by an engine and
killed. In nine cases out Of ten, when
the body is picked up, it will be found to
be minus shoes. Even men wearing
heavy top boots are not exempt from this
strange rule. Why is it? I guess you'll
have to ask somebody who is wiser than

And we're cloSer-thank God.-togetner, III

Under the flag united-frienuly as friends
may be
The man who marched with Sherman and

It's after the stormy weather. See now
where the skies bend blue.
And light the stars of the flag that waves
splendidly over you!
The battle-thunders have died away-the
folds of the flag float free,
And fainter now the echoes of the guns
from over sea.
After the stormy weather. Peace on the
plains and hills:
No crimson drops the daisies, no red on
the rippled rils,
Only one thought for the country: Waves
the flag from shore to shore:
Wrongs righted, and, love-united, we are
brothers forevermore!'
One thought! Let the sea winds wing it
over the echoing deep
One thought Let the rivers sing it where
the dreaming valleys sleep!
Thrilled to the stars in music; after the
rough ways trod
We are all at home in the country under the

A Word to Young Men.

1t is doubtless within the momOry Of
hundreds of thousands Of young men
In this country that less than ten years
exact-the business world suffered a
stagnation and disaster the like Of
which had never before been seen
among us.
The panic of '93 was especially hard
upon young men. The elderly, who
had made their successes in life fairly
secure, those whose natural caution en-
abled them to look forward to such a
terrible contamination and to prepare
for it, suffered less. The younger
men, having in some cases the enthu-
siasm of their youth, having in many
others the well-matured plans of mid
die age before them, found that their
beSt-laid plans, their most Loyalty SUI
perhuman efforts, were insufficient to
stem the tide against them. Many
failed. Many who did not fail fought
on, almost losing heart, but bravely
keeping up the struggle, hardly know
ing why. Those who failed are mostly
on their feet again. Those who did
not, are doing we'll enough" again.
All-and we repeat, there are hun
dreds of thousands Of them, take it the
country over-have cause to remember
the beginning, and, let us hope, the
end, of financial and political policy,
or lack of policy, which literally doomed
tens of thousands of them to bank
ruptcy, tens of thousands of others to
despair, and ceaseless effort to recover
themselves, and yet tens of thousands
! more to beggery-nOt hopeless, for that
is a word unknown to the younger
business generation.
We do not believe that there is a sim
gle self-reSpecting business man Of the
rising generation who is going to per-
nit, or who is going to help to permit,
any such disaster to happen again. 1t
would mean dollars, in many cases
thousands of dollars, out of his peck
ct. It would mean in many cases
that he could never recover his finan-
cial standing; for it is not always that
a man can stand more than one Of these
attacks. The younger generation, we
believe, learned its lesson thoroughly.
1t will do better this time.
