OUR POINT OF VIEW

Is life worth living? Yes, so long
AS there is wrong to right,
Wall OF the weak against the strong,
Or tyranny to fight.
Long as there fingers gloom to chase,
Or cleaning tears to dry;
One kindred woe, one sorrowing face,
That smiles as we draw nigh.
Look az the tale of anguish swels,
The heart and lids grow wet,
And at the sound of Christmas bells,
We pardon and forget,
So long as faith with freedom reigns,
And loyal hope survives,
And gracious charity remains,
TO leaven lowly lives.
While there is one untrodden tract,
For intellect or will,
And men are free to think and act,
Life is worth living still.

Three Old Toasts.

1t was Representative McCleary who
recently resurrected the three famous
toasts on the United States. This is
the first:
Here is to the United States, bound
ed on the north by the British posses
sions, on the south by Mexico and the
gulf of Mexico. on the east by the At
lantic and on the west by the Pacific"
The second, little more expansive,
is as follows:
Here is to the United States, bound
ed on the north by the north pole, on
the south by the south pole, on the east
by the rising of the sun and on the
west 10y the setting thereof"
And the third reaches this climax:
Here is to the United States bound
ed on the north by the aurora borealis,
on the south by the procession of the
equinoxes. OH the east by primeval
chaos and on the west by the day OF
judgment" CARL ScHoFrELD.

A Ceach Burrss

At the railway depot there was quite a conflagration last night, caused by a lamp bursting in the coach Of the southward bound train. The train rom the north had arrived. the sleeper detached and and put upon the train for Guaymas, which was standing upon the sidetrack awaiting to receive it. In coupling up the sleeper and coach the shock caused a lamp to explode, scattering oil and flame in all directions. The entire coach wasquickly enyeloped in flames, which were also communicated to the sleeper; but the latter was extin- guished without much damage. The switch engine, with it's fire apparatus, was run alongside of tue burning coach, and the conflagration was ex- tinguished; but not before the whole body of the car was so badly charred that it will require rebuilding

GEN. WHEELER MAY MARRY.
He Does Not Deny Report that He Is
Engaged to Mrs. Childs.

NEW YORK, April ga special to the
Herald from Washington says: Persistent
rumor again couples the names of Gen.
Joseph Wheeler and Mrs. George w.
Childs, and this time there seems to be
good reason to believe an announcement of
their engagement to marry will be made.
When Mrs. Childs was asked for a confir-
nation or denial of the report she smiled
and referred the questioher to General
Wheeler. The gallant veteran also smiled
when asked about ii. 1T would be anything
but gallant for me to talk on that subject
without first having asked the permission
of Mrs. Childs TO do So" he said. but /
will admit that this rumor has been so per-
sistent that it would be well to set it at
rest one way or the other. I'll tell you
what I'll do. 1 will see Mrs. Childs and ask
her to answer your question or authorize
me to do So"
He then swung off In the direction of the
home of Mrs. Childs. in K street. When
seen later he smiled broadly. Yes, 1 saw
her." he said, "and / think you will soon
receive your answer. Mrs. Childs said she
would send you a note setting at rest all
of these rumors."
General Wheeler was assured that any
further talk would be taken as a confess
sion. You will have to draw your own con-
illusions" was the reply. though 1 believe
question an answer"
No statement could be obtained from
Mrs. Childs to-day. General Wheeler ad-
mitted. however, that at a luncheon in
Philadelphia, attended by Mrs. Childs and
himself, they were congratulated by
mutual friends on their rumored engage
ment. These congratulations were ac-
cepted without denial, though General
Wheeler now says they were unfortunate
and untimely.
Shortly after the death of Mr.. George w.
Childs. Mrs. Childs erected a residence in
X street, which ranks as one of the most
palatial homes of the national capital. IT is
of Roman architecture. 1t is superbly fur
nished, and has been the scene of many
brilliant functions. General Wheeler has
apartments at the Arlington. II is prob
able he will, in the near future. be made a
brigadier general in the regular army and

FORMOSA'S
Rev. Barclay Says They Are Worse
Than the Philippine Barbarians.

NEW YORK, April 26.-Rev. Thomas
Barclay. of Formosa. an English Pres
byterian delegate to the EcumenioaI Con
ference. says that the japanese are hav-
ing more trouble in subduing the savages
of Formosa than the Americans in bring
ing order out of chaos in the Philippines.
After the Japanese-Chines war;" said
he last night, 1.-The Chinese withdrew their
mandarins and handed the island of For
mosa over to the Japanese. 1t is a good
sized piece of land, about go miles long
by 60 miles wide. and is full of people. 1t
is really a continuation of the islands of
which the Philippines are a part, and dur
ing the Spanish-American war a canoe
full of Filipinos landed on the island. after
a voyage on the open sea. The Japanese
soldiers do not venture far into the interior.
There is a mountain range running almost
through the middle of the island. On the
coast are the Japanese and Chinese. A
little further back are the aborigines, who
are half-civilized and do not make much
trouble. Then come the savages on the
mountain slopes, and there is no telling
just when the Japanese will be able to
curb them. They never have been subju-
gated. and when they catch a body of
Japanese soldiers isolated they Kill them
all. That is the way they treated the
Chinese before the Japanese occupied the
country. AS soon as the savages make a
raid of this kind they flee TO the mountain
wilds, and the soldiers do not dare follow
them. They are largely armed with guns,
although some of them still cling to the
bow and arrow and spear. They are, in
fact, much like the natives of Malay,
speaking Chinese largely, and have the
same physical characteristics as the
Chinese.
1.-The japanese are carrying on the cam
phor industry, and, no doubt, are making
a good thing out of ii, as Japan is now
about the only producer of that valuable
commodity. The Chinese were cutting off
all the camphor trees when the japanese
took possession, and since then there has
been some regard paid to forest preserva-
ton. / don't know just how plentiful the
camphor trees are back in the towns. In
the interior of the island, no doubt, there
are plenty of them. The camphor is OBJ
tanned from the wood by chopping the logs
up into chips. putting them into a cylinder
or retort and slowly firing 1t. Cold water
is poured through the top of the cylinder
as IL is being fired. and the vapor is con-
densed. the camphor adhering TO a plate
at the top of the retort. Tie greatest
care is taken in the firing of the retort or
cylinder. IL the fire Is too hot or insult
fcient the results are bad. They have be-
come skillful. OF course, after being at 1t
so many years.

THE REBEL GENERAL FORREST.

Rebe1s-A Few Facts of History.

while Grant was cutting and selling
cordwood and Sherman was teaching
school, there was a man in Memphis who
was having no preparation whatever for
war. and yet who was destined to make
no end Of trouble for those able soldiers"
Thus writes John Gilmer Speed in the
Philadelphia Saturday Evening Post, and
after this gratuitous slur on Grant and
Sherman he tells us this was Gen. N. b.
Forrest" who, he adds, was an uneducated
man, and belonged to that prescribed class
in the South known as ''poor whites"
Moreover, he was still handicapped in any
effort TO stand on an equality with men of
position by having been a slave-trader.
If young Speed had written: while
Grant was cutting and selling cordwood
and Sherman was teaching school, Forrest
was selling 'niggers' in Memphis, he was

slave-traders as positive ruffians and vaga-

state of affairs. never being a resident in
a slave State, and other writers have taken
up her ideas until it is a popular belief that
the planter" was a heightened, chivalrous
gentleman. and the "slave-dealer' a low
grade ruffian. Such was not the case, how
ever. The slave trade was considered in
the South in slave times as a most hon.
orable and legitimate business. requiring
considerable capital. and was followed by
members OF the best families and society.
Everyone who owned slaves became a slave
dealer in fact. They bought and sold ne
groes according 10 the needs of their farm
work. When a mar had negroes TO sell.
ard all persons who raised them would
have a surplus at times, he disposed of
