in Blue who were able to run, 1 think
that Bull Run is the more appropriate
name. Shakespeare says a rose by any
other name would smell as sweet, but
l am sure that the battle of Bull Run
by any other name would not sound as
familiar to thousands of readers who
were ''in it, or have a vivid recollec-
ton of it. Even Gen. Mcdowell re-
ported that some of his troops got into
Washington ahead of their regiments,

AS have often written in high praise
of the gallantry of the First Tennessee
Volunteers and Major B. Frank Cheat
ham, in the Philippines. it may be well
to contrast their grand display of pa
triotism and valor with that of some
Union volunteers at Bull Run, or First
Manassas, where two commands show
ed a lack of patriotism and courage,
too disgraceful to be credited. In his
address at Memphis on his California
trip, President Mckinley extolled in
eloquent words the noble conduct or
this regiment after its discharge in dis
embarking from the home bound trans
port trip and again meeting the enc
mics of our flag in deadly combat, and
that, too. in a far off and tropical coun-
try. His warm words of commenda-
ton might have been made more fore
ible by a reference to this paragraph
in Gen. McDowell's report of the Bun
Run battle: "C'h the eve Of the battle

of War, who was at the time on the
ground, tried to induce the battery TO
remain at least five days, but in vain.
They insisted on their discharge that
night. 1t was granted: and next morn
ing when the army moved forward into

BRITAIN'S NEW PEER
LORD MlLNER GAINS HIS TITLE FOR
SERVICE IN SOUTH AFRICA.

High Commissioner of the Disturbed d
Region Hailed as "Britain's Com
ing Man"-His brilliant Record as
scholar, Author and Statesman.
Alfred, Baron Miner of st. James, in
the county of London, and of Cape
Town, in the colony of the Cape of
Good Hope-such is the new title of
the man who is hailed as ''England's
coming man." Britain has a number
of men still young who are looked upon
as likely to do great things in the fu-
ture-Wyndham, Balfour, young Cham
berlain and others-but it is to Lord
Miner that all eyes are turning. There
is good reason for the expectation, for
Miner at the age of AZ has attained q
position reached by few British sub
jects under 60.
Since 1897 Lord Milner has been gov
ernor of the Cape Colony and high com-
missioner of South Africa. To him
probably more than to any other man
is due the annexation, final and COM
plete, of the Transvaal and of the Or
ange River Colony to the British en-
pire. If England owes gratitude to any
man for the outcome of the recent
events in unhappy South Africa, it is to
Lord Miner.
Baron Miners career since his boy
hood days has been brilliant, measured
by any one of several standards. His
scholarly attainments may be judged
from the fact that one of England's
most eminent educators called Miner
'the finest flower of human culture
reared at oxford in his generation"
His writings are marked by purity of
diction and excellence of English. Will
liam I. Stead, the prominent English
editor, author and critic, praises Mil
ners only book, England In Egypt"
published in 1892, in the highest terms.
His success in politics may be judged
from his advancement from the post Of
private secretary to Mr.. Goschen, chan
cellor of the exchequer, in 1887 to his
present eminence in the British empire
in 1901.
The son of an English physician resi-
dent in Germany, Miner was born in
Wurttemberg. His education was gain
ed at Stuttgart, at Kings college, Lon
don, and at oxford. Even during his
Undergraduate days he impressed him

FREE relief seems generally to
have demoralizing effect on
those who accept it. At Jack
sonville recently marines had to
be landed because Of the threat
ening attitude of reckless ne
groes who refused to work at the
saw mills, having given up their
jobs when free relief was dis
tributed. Saw mills may have
to shut down as hundreds refuse
to work and ask for free rations.
The good old Bible rule, eff a
man will not work neither shall
he eat" still has some advocates
and free rations will be refused
as long as work is offered.

not allow the employees to put
"any restriction on the manage
ment, methods or production of
the shops" The employers will
also elect such method of pay as
they choose.
The Age says that the Associ-
alton now includes fully 80 pei
cent of the machinery mlnufac-
turers of the country. THIS Ma
tional association held a conven-
tion in New York City Tuesday
of this week to ratify their dec
laration of principles and con-
slider the situation.
Reviewing the general condi-
tions of the country prominent
authority has this to say as to the
striking machinists, in a dispatch
from New York:
The labor situation throughout the
country is decidedly better. Itlooks
as though the striking machinists
had lost their battle, and that gener-
al business will be less and less dis
turbed by this cause from now on.
The firm and united stand in the
matter taken by employers was a
surprise to Mr.. Gompers and his
counsellors. The manufacturers al
most to a man, declared that the
question might as well be settled
now as at any other time, whether
the trades unions were to ruin the
machinist business in this country
as they had done in England.

For the pleasure thou hast given to me.

The whirr of the reel as the trout play around
Makes music both thrilling and sweet,
The quivering line is quickly removed
And the speckled beauty laid at our feet.
When the sun rides high in the azure sky
We leisurely row to the shore
On the green, mossy bank to idly lie
And count our treasures o'er.
Spreading our lunch beside the old well
That stands at the foot of the hill,
We eat with relish tongue cannot tell
And life has for us never an III.
The evening soon comes, the shadows get long,
Homeward we wend our way,
On our lips a smile, in our heart a song,

Arrest

1897 AIilner has been engaged III al.
ministrative work in South Africa. His
task has been one of the utmost delica.
cy, difficulty and Importance. He has
succeeded in pleasing his king, the
heads of his government and, it seems
the majority of his countrymen. What
the future holds in store for Miner is
not very hard to prognosticate. Unless
all human indications fail the highest
offices in the British empire are within
his grasp.
In person Lord Miner is thin and
spare, of medium height. He gives one
the impression of power, intellectual
and moral. In his manner are united q
perfect courtesy and a calm, somewhat
melancholy reserve. 1t was noted at
his recent return to England that he
has aged much during the past few
years of residence in South Africa.
"The graveyard of Englishmen's repu-
tations" has not hurt Miners, but it
has done him somewhat of physical
harm. His hair has grown grizzled,
and he is in need of rest from his ar
duous task of reconciling Dutch and
British interests at the Cape. He is
unmarried.
Although Miners ability and intel
lectual strength are recognized by the
British public, his qualities are not
such as to make of him popular hero.
He has, however, pleased the govern
ment thoroughly by the firmness of his
actions in South Africa. Naturally
enough. the same course has gained for
him the thorough detestation of the
South African Dutch and their support
ers. 1t is said by some that Kruger
considers Miner his most dangerous
opponent.

The Machinists' Strike.

Among the new non-union en-
ployes of big machinery manu-
featuring concern at Newark,
N. j., are a number of students
who have been studying electri-
cal engineering at Columbia Col
lege. These new men, one hun
dred strong, are encamped inside
the works and will be guarded
against interference and violence
from the striking machinists who
are asking a nine-hour day with
ten hours pay, and full recog-
milton of their union. Here is
an incident proving conclusively
that labor trust cannot success
fully be maintained in free and
enlightened America. The sup
ply of skilled or of unskilled
.workmen cannot be regulated or
controlled by the walking dele
gate. New mechanics are being
made every day in our thousands
of manual training schools and
workshops and the minds of these
student workmen are being
trained as well to take or give
reasonable discipline and to un-
derstand that even employers of
labor have some rights that must
be respected.
The Iron Age, a leading au-
thority in the trade makes this
analysis of the contest between
the striking machinists of the
country and the National Metal
Trades Association:
An impartial review of our reports
shows that the demands of the men
have in some cases been granted,
but the vast majority of employers
have insisted upon conducting their
business as a co-partnership between
themselves and their men. While
concessions have been made, we
have heard of no case where the as
sociation has been recognized as a
controlling factor in the situation.
We have heard of no case, where the
demands have been acceded to, in /
which the union has not been elm
mated. In each instance where an |
agreement has been reached, the
only stipulation has been that the
employer has insisted upon arbitrat-
ing with his men alone, and inde-
pendent of any outside interference.
The manufacturers take the
position, which certainly is reas-
enable, that the employees, being
responsible for the work musthave
full power to employ any men
they choose and designate the
conditions under which the work |
is to be performed. They de-
cline to consider any workmen
who have already struck. They |
reserve the right to regulate the
number Of apprentices and will
