Cost of Admiralty.

As the days lengthen the death list
from Manila grows longer. More
Americans are sick and dying there
now than six months ago. The trans
ports come back laden with the dead.
Instead of argosies freighted with COM
merce, that tie to the dock and hail
the bustling stevedores, the hearse
ships make fast and the hundreds of
coffined dead are lifted from the hold
and hauled in long procession to the
Presidio, whence they are sent afar by
trains and steamers to their own for
sepulture.
1t is for them the end. 1t is for the
country the beginning? Is the rainbow
oriental trade, arrayed in all its pri-
mary colors, worth all the misery that
lies silent in the thousands of coffins
that have traversed fourteen thousand
miles of sea to bring home the dead2
Is that dream of greed worth the va
cant eyed stare of the maniacs that
come back with the dead?
A thousand pairs of handouts have
gone to Manila to manacle the lunatics
whose brains have been broiled of their
wits by vertical sun. The hearse
ships give up their dead and take on
their return cargo of collins and hand
cuffs, for every day the tally of the
dead and mad grows longer. The Of
fetal list for March 10Th fills nearly a
half column, fine type. Eighteen
killed and wounded, and thrice eigh-
teen dead of typhoid, dysentery, beri-
beri, smallpox, malarial fevers and
other burning pests of the tropics, and
the pitiless sun and poison rains NOV
ing upon the camps with daily grow
ing ardor.
We are asked to see compensation
for it all and forget the incoming car
goes of collins filled and the back
freight of collins empty in the victories
which attend our arms in far Luzon,
where women fall defending their huts
with pitiful wooden swords and the
country is laid back and waste and
bare as the crop of coffins it sends to
us. Every battle is victory for US,
and we slay fifty to one, but all the
blood we have spilled puts not one
pulse back in the stark wrists that are
quiet in their collins. Will some one
post and print the gain set over against
all this loss? We have paid every as
sessment in death. When will the divi.
dend come? To put it on the sordid
ground of gain, when are the profits
expected?--.S f. Call.

A Dead Boys Example.

The following item of news was
printed in the New York World re-
Gently: "When the little chap was
taken from beneath the Fordham troll
ley car that knocked him down and
ran over him in Third avenue, oppo-
site Grove street, yesterday afternoon,
there was found in his pocket top
and cord and good boy ticket from
Public School No. &c."
That was one of the most interesting
boys stories that we have read for
many day, and there is beautiful
lesson in it That boy had his charac-
ter with him, and when his lips were
still in death this certificate told what
sort of boy he was.
We have known some boys, and
some men, too, to carry in their pock-
cts indecent pictures and filthy stories.
A self respecting man or boy would
not like to be found dead with such
things in his pocket.
The New York boy has set good
example. Let man so live that
should sudden death overtake him, it
would find on his person evidence of a
good character.-R Richmond Leader.

Shocking Death of British Deserter

An Australian newspaper gives the
following description of the death of a
British deserter:
Sergeant-Major Greener, who was a
Boer sympathizer, deserted to the en-
emy on the first occasion that pre-
sented itself. He was captured by the
British some time afterwards and con-
demned to DEATH On being asked if
he had anything to say, he replied:
''The British wondered how the Beers
contrived to construct trenches so
formidable at Magersfontein. 1t was
because | taught them the art of
trench building, and it was l who di-
rected the fortification of the kopje
where the Gordons and Black Watch
were cut up"
He said that he died with no quaims
of conscience, but with the idea that,
according to his lights, he had done
his duty.
When Greener's hour came he was
compelled to dig his own grave and to
stand in front of it to be shot. He dug
the hole true and quickly, measuring
his own body that it might fit WELL
Then he faced the iiring line with his
eyes open and his hands folded on his
breast. He died unpitied by the watch
ing army, while the band played "The
Rogue's March,"
When the word was given to fire he
threw out his arms, and the next in
slant fell backward into the grave,
where the earth was quickly thrown
in upon him, the band playing "God
Save the Queen

Mean Man.

The young man who made his bride
wedding present of a sack of peanuts,
and then made her put them away to
save for the children, is not in it with
a farmer we read of this morning:
A sweet schoolma'am overjoyed that
the tasks of the day were ended, was
romping in high spirits with her little
pupils in front of the schoolhouse ere
departing for home.
She had little sled belonging to a
pupil. She was giving the little ones
little rides on the ice that covered the
earth.
A farmer came along with bobsled.
With nervy glance at her admiring
pupils, she caught the slow sled and
fastening her sledlet behind. She sat
down upon it.
The farmer glanced back and saw
her. An evil genius prompted him to
whip up.
Away went the bob with the school
ma'am behind, lickety-split. The glare
of ice made the little sled take the
most wonderful skins at the corners.
She yelled at him to stop; but he
paid no attention. She dared not let
go the sled to arrange her dishevelled
raiment; but was compelled to hang
on with both hands. Groups of big
schoolboys were passed in quick sue
cession. They roared with applause
that grew into an encore.
Down into the business district the
fiend of farmer flew. During the
transit through the streets business
was practically suspended.
The farmer slowed down at the city
limits, and she sprang off and rescued
her sled.
She started to express her opinion of
his conduct; but the farmer whipped
up again and few

Wireless Telegraphy.

1t is said that successful experiments
have at last been accomplished in wire-
less telegraphy, and this would un-
doubtedly be good thing, and revo-
lutionize many ways of doing business.
One writer has gone SO far as to say
that wireless telegrapoy is the greatest
discovery of the age. We beg to differ.

The Trusts.


The numerous commercial travellers
who come in contact with the general
public, paint a vivid, but depressing
tale of the monopolies and trusts now
doing such mischief to small, dealers
all over the United States.
They tell you of hundreds. and hun
dreds of business men who, have been
forced out of business within the last
three or four years. They will tell
you how the trusts have ordered one
man after another to close his estab-
lishment. They will give you the
names of ambitious and thriving pro-
prietors who are now clerks or agents
of gigantic corporate combinations, all
hope dead, all opportunity gone.
This terrible change in the condi-
tions of life in America has occurred
within fifteen or twenty years. What
will the conditions be when the boy
born to-day is MANI The trusts rep
resent the combined, disciplined power
of two billions of dollars now. What
will their wealth and power be twenty
five years hence? The trusts can nom-
mate and elect the President of the
United States and determine the laws
now. What will they be able to do
when the next generation is grown?
Will the Constitution of the United
States be spared when industrial and
commercial concentration has placed
the lives and fortunes. of the whole
people at the mercy of two or three
hundred men?
The young man,has little chance of
rising in business in this country to-
day unless he happens to be gifted
with supreme. genius. Every month
narrows his opportunities. He is
charmed and befooled by the giittering
rhetoric of trnst-paid orators. He
reads the figures which tell the story
of rapidly increasing wealth in Amer
lea, and he is dazzled by the sight of
unmatched prosperity - for few.
Mr.. Hanna will tell him that all this
concentration of commercial and in
dustrial power is scientific, logical, the
irresistible evolution of modern civili-
zation; that to interfere with it would
be like interfering with the tides of the
ocean or the progress of the seasons.
And the young man hears this bias
phemy against God and humanity
this mocking of institutions and con-
ditions to establish which men have
wet the earth with their blood and
tears for thousand years, and he be-
lieves Mr.. Hanna--or does he?
Look back along the path of the dead
centuries and see how it is marked
with the graves of the great men who
have toiled and suffered and died for
the sake of the right to compete. The
track is strewn with the ashes of en-
pires and peoples who finally forgot to
keep open the door of opportunity for
their young men.
In twenty years we have witnessed
the growth of the trust system to a
point where the President of the United
States dares not to oppose its bidding.

1t would be difficult to say who made
the first iron plow; but in Scotland a
contemporary says the inventor was
humble Scotch blacksmith named
William Allan. His modesty was so
great that after he had made his first
plow, and it did satisfactory work on
his own farm, he declined to make p
second for neighboring gentlemen on
the plea that he was not as good a
blacksmith as the gentlemen ought to
have, and recommended neighbor of
his, named Gray. The latter became
rich at the business, while Allan re-
manned as poor as ever.

I'm thinking of thee, when the sun of noon.

Calling the juices from earth's womb
To spring the grass and swell the bud,
Warming earth's breath.

RAIN.



The gray cold clouds hang low,
The writing boughs Of trees wind dashed
Toss nadly to and fro;
The drip and beat pi sdllen rain
In rhythmic cadence fall
On mist blurred pane and lichened roof,
While loud the wild winds call.
The drip and beat Of falling rain
The huarsc winds meaning call
They come 10 me like voices sweet
That pain and unress thrall.
4f5r fbc brown fields seem TO lie
beneath the tcmpest's beat,
With patience mute that knows tbs this

Iiar the hills against the sky
A misty. dark wall run;
Their rain ringed crests seem reaching up
To find the hidden sun.
And faith and hope within my heart
Look up as de the hills
To md their sun beyond the storm
That all the present fills.
What though my fields seem waste and bare
What though my skies seem drear-
Nv heart has planted precious seed
In those fields brown and sere,
And trusting God who knoweth all,
I paticnt bear the beat
az nre,ent's storm that he hath sent
To wake their blooming sweet.
