The work OF the Cars.

The death of Car Nicholas would work
no pronounced changes in the Russian
empire. The Romanoffs win continue TO
rule as absolute monarchs and the grea.
problems OF state win be settled as they
have been settled since the time OF the

the greatest autocrat among modern civ

work any very radical changes in the
Russian scheme of government. even were
he so inclincd While he Is the fountain
head OF all power throughout the empire,
the general plans and policies OF govern
ment in Russia have been established for
several generations. and even the most
liberai-minded sovereign would hardly es-

to confer upon his subjects some Of the
privileges enjoyed by the people Of mod

Vienna, city where music is ALWAYS
appreciated, gave Brahms a welcome, and
there the creative years of his life were
happily spent. 1t was in 1868 that he
wrote the 'DeuJsches Requiem" which
made his name familiar all over Europe,
and which was played in almost every
church throughout the Fatherland when
services in memory of the soldiers slain in
the Franco German war were held a year
or two later. Personally Brahms IVES a
delightful man, with keen sense of
humor. and the courage OF his opinions.
He never married, and when. as often
happened. the ladies of his acquaintance
used to twit him on his lonely life. his in
variable reply was: 1T is my misfortune
to be unmarried-Thank Cod His dis Ike
of hattery was quite as pronounced as his
love of independence. Once. dining. as
was his custom in the summer, in the open
air at a restaurant in Vienna, with some
friends. he asked the head waiter to bring
forth the best wine. Presently. with
low bow, he returned. Here" he ex-
claimed, lis a wine that surpasses all
others-as much as the music OF Brahms
does that of all other composers" For a
moment the master was taken aback, then
he said archly: We'll. then, take it
away, and bring US a bottle OF Bachl''

night, at sunset seeing the Star Spangled

night OF battle. lit at intervals by the
lurid flashes of exploding bombs. and
made fearful by tire thunders of cannon,
the mist was too dense to discern wheth-

there was ripple on the water, soft
sough in the fog. and, like magic, 1t rolled
away, revealing the American flag still
floating defantly- from the staff above the
ramparts. The patriots fell on each 9TH

then drew a letter from his pocket, and
on its back penciled the first stanza of the
celebrated national song. After the bonn

Admiral Cevera, after being taken pris-
oner. Acknowledged that the secondary bat
teries and rapid-fre guns, manned princi-
pally by marines. wrought the greatest
damage to his feet.
Admiral Dewey, enthusiastic on the con-
duct of the Marine Corps. cabled. on March
3, 1899, a Quest that a battalion OF $50
be sent to 81 rrison the naval station at
Cayite. Accordingly. by the directions OF
the War Department, 4 battalion consisting
Of u officers and 260 enlisted men was
assembled at the navy yard, New York
under the command Of Col. p. c. Pope
United States Marine Corps. The other
officers of this battalion were Major w. f.
spicer, Major c. L. McCawley, Assistant
Quartermaster: First Lieut.. C. C. Thorpe,
Battalion Adjutant; Assistant Surgeon J.
r. Waggener. United States Marine Corps;
Captains II. c. Haines. c. G. Long, Benja-
min II. Fuller, and A. r. Davis; First
Lieuts. S. d. Butler. Henry Leonard, e. C.
Reid. c. s. Hill. 4. NJ. Gibson. and X. II.
Dunlap.
This first battalion has since been re-
enforced, and the work performed by the
organization in preserving order in the
Islands. as well as the gallantry ii has
displayed in action. have won universal
encomium. The British Admiral, Sir
Charles Seymour, in particular was warm
In his praise of the United States Marines

bravery manifested by them at the battle
