SLOWLY BEGINNING TO SEE.

1t is beginning to dawn upon the
national Republican leaders that things
may not go their way to any great ex-
tent in the coming election They rec
ognize that William Mckinley is going
to be very heavy load to carry, and
have been doing a good deal of almost
pathetic negotiating for running mate
for the Ohio man whose personal pop
ularity will afford substantial aid to the
head of the ticket. So far no decision
has been reached.
Now they are properly worried about
the next House of Representatives No
less a man than Congressman Joseph
W. Babcock of the Third Wisconsin
district, and chairman of the Repub-
lican Congressional Campaign Com
mittee, says that in his opinion, after
a careful study of the situation and
conditions, that ''the contest for the
control of the next House will be
close" He aslo says he fears serious
losses of Republican members in the
West. This is not new, but coming
from Mr.. Babcock, it is very signifi-
cant.

Neither sound nor motion was discernibie
from the recesses behind the curtains
In a little while the young man came
back showing the freshened effect Of cold
water and hair brushes. and moved the
bottom of the curtains aside sufficiently
to shove his bag under the berth. As he
rose to his feet again, the car saw that he
was looking down refiectiveIy at the cargo
of rice which covered the floor He con-
tinued to regard it for some time fixedly
Then he raised his eyes and surveyed the
car. There was a more or less unsup-
pressed smile on every face, but the
young man still showed no embarrass-
ment. The he arranged the folds of the
heavy curtains with elaborate solicitude
and finally went forward again and WINS
pered something to the porter The car.
to a passenger, would probably have glad
ly paid double fare 10 have heard those
half-dozen whispered words The pretty
mystery was assuming proportions. But
the porter only said Yes, sun And
then the young man went over and sat
down gravely in an end seat from where
he looked smack into the face of every
soul in the car.
The next moment the porter came down
the aisle toward the bridal section. He
was fat and very black porter For an
instant he paused before the silent cur
tains. Then thrill of horror ran through
the car, and several men got half way to
their feet. With two swift movements
he had pulled the curtains wide apart and
was humping and pulling at something
within Another instant, and horror had
given way to amazement, for the inside
of the berth Immediately became visible
to all who cared to see. The porter was
making up the section. The bride had
vanished
The car turned swiftly to the hapless
bridegroom on the front seat. An express
sion of Arcadian simplicity rested on his
countenance.
A few moments later the porter started
toward his linen closet, but half way
down the aisle he was held up by half a
dozen male passengers with wonder
stricken faces.
What has become of the bride?" they
demanded.
The porter scratched his head and look
ed at them uncomprehendingly. Then he
showed his teeth in a grin.
.Oh, the bridal couple wat got on at
Suspension Bridge?' he said. They done
left the train late last night. They didn't
have their section made up. That gem
man down in front of the car he had up
per one, n he kicked, so / shifted him
over as soon as the bridal couple left"
The car turned again toward the young
man on the front seat. The expression of
Arcadan simplicity was still with him.
But for the first time across his face
there glimmered a faint, thoughtful smile
The half dozen male passengers and the
porter held a moments consultation IN
the middle of the car. Then they came
forward and one of their number said
something in a low voice to the young
man on the front seat. The young man
rose to his feet, still smiling thoughtfully
Il see,' he said softly. Il don't care If

IN REMEMBRANCE OF THE DEAD


To-day, as did the Atheneans more
than two thousand years ago, through
out the length and breadth of this great
country, in Cuba, in Porto Rico and in
the far-off Philippines, the American
people will strew flowers upon the
graves of the soldier dead. There are
at least million and half of these
graves. If we count the soldiers of
the South, there are more than two
millions. In them lie the veterans of
all the wars of the Republic, from the
revolution to the present Pickering
conflict on the further side of the Pa
cific. Beneath the brown earth, the
grass, the flowers and the tombs rest
those whose patriotism led them forth
to battle, and that they have not been
forgotten by their fellow eountrymen
is attested by the tribute of blossoms
we annually scatter upon their graves.
The Republic is not ungrateful to her
fallen sons, and while Decoration Day
survives the cause of Liberty will be
safe in the hands of patriotic people.
The dead constantly multiply. Every
recurring year more flags are necessary
to mark the resting places of those
who once toiled in the dust of the
marching column, or who answered
with cheers the shots of the enemies
of their country as they formed for the
advance. The once grand army of the
war of the Rebellion is disappearing.
as have the former hosts. More than
one-half of the two million who wore
the uniform from 1861 to 1866 are dead.
and the same is true of the soldiers of
the South Both North and South the
veterans are falling out of the ranks
in ever increasing numbers With each
year the number of those who are able
to rally on the colors' grows less and
less, while constantly increasing is the
vast command which has been lament
ed in that noble poem commencing:
never again on the shoulder
To wear the knightly bars,
Never again on the shoulder
To bear the lordly leaves,
Never again to follow
The flag of the stripes and stars
Never again to dream the dreams
That martial glory weaves."
No more will the dead call com
rade' to the men who were comrades
for years, nor hear the bugles thrill
ing so sweet and solemn For them
the biyouac has been ordered They
have crossed over the river to rest I'M
der the shade of the trees, and they
there await the comrades yet to ans
wer the last roll CALL To-day we
once more honor the memory of the
departed, in the name of country
reunited for the rest of time.

tic, Of $4,000 tons displacement. carry
ing four 12-inch guns, twelve 6-inch
quick-frers, eighteen 12-pounders,
twelve 3-pounders and eight smaller
rapid-fire guns, steamed past the Bel
leisle at seven knots speed within
mile distance, treated the Belleisle
as an enemy, opening fire on her with
all her guns. The 12-inch guns were
aimed at the central battery of the
Belleisle and her smaller guns at the
other parts of the old turret ship, one
object being to explode live torpedo
left in a torpedo tube of the Belleisle.
The firing lasted nine minutes. In
six minutes the Belleisle was in
flames. and many explosions had been
heard. When the volumes of smoke
and yellow lights OF the lyddite shells
had cleared away it was seen that she
had sunk in mud bank and was
burning fiercely. The fire was extin-
guished by a force of men on tugs,
previously arranged for and then
careful examination of the wrecked
ship was made by experts. 1t was
found she was completely riddled ex-
cept as to the very heaviest modern
armor, with which the ship had been
especially fitted for the test. The old
iron armor had been punctured a.
will, while the vast amount of interior
woodwork on board had turned the
ship into furnace. In actual warfare
the entire crew as well as the ship,
would have been doomed in few
minutes after fire was opened by the
Majestic. 1t was a pretty costly ex-
pertinent, but was probably worth the
money to England.

his high horse, upon which he under
took to override paragraph 2 of Sec.
II. of the Constitution of the United
State. Only few days ago Governor
Mount CURLY and emphatically refused
to honor the regular requisition of
Governor Beckham, of Kentucky, for
the person of ex-Secretary of State
Finley, who, with w. S. Taylor, sought

comes TO me in proper form, l shall GER
talnly issue it, and will send il TO the

tive should be returned for trial. This
talk of refusal to issue a requisition on
the Governor of Kentucky for the return
OF man charged with crime is nom
sensense, for, If the circumstances seem
such that the fugitive should be returned

statement will do. For instance, Gov
