The Grand army in convention in
Cleveland, Ohio. passed resolutions de-
manding more pensions and asking for
the removal or resignation of our pen
sion commissioner at Washington, d. c.
His wholesale granting of these pen
siOns regardless of merit is an outrage
upon the American people. Thirteen
years after the close of our Civil War
in 1878, the entire pensions of the
ieUnited States did not amount to $685. :
600, 900, and President Grant and Gar
field both said in their time that they
ought not never to exceed $3.50, 900, 900,
and yet the amount is $143, 300, 900 and
this sum is more than all the nations
of the globe pay altogether, and the
Grand Army in convention, to have
the check and affrontry to make such
demands shows more love of money
than for flag, people or country.

The Kings of Denmark.

The dust of the Danish kings is kept
in great cathedral at RoSkilde an old
town 20 miles from Copenhagen. Ev-

pays a visit to Roskilde in obedience to
an ancient custom. On one of the pill
lars are marks showing the height of
Peter the Great, Nicholas. the Iron
Car; Alexander III of Russia; the
king of England, and many other kings.
The cathedral was built in the elev-
enth century. 1t has two mighty tow

IRRnRrUa.

The captain of an ocean steamer is
often warned of the proximity of ice
bergs by the men in the engine room.
When a ship enters water considerably
colder than that through which it has
been going its propeller runs faster,
and as such water surrounds the vi
cinity of icebergs for many miles the
engineers know when the prOpeller's
action is greatly accelerated without
any increase of the steam power ice
bergs may be expected. OF course the
thermometer is the most useful indi-
Gator of icebergs.

The closing session of the Ecumen-
ic&l Methodist Conference mad been
reserved for missions, and while the
subject was too important to be set
aside in City Road, where John Wes-
ley's parish window looked out on the
wide world, the discussion was cur
tailed, and a memorial meeting was
held in honor of President Mckinley,
with fervent prayers and eloquent
tributes from the American delegates
and hearty singing of the Presidents
favorite hymns. The fateful coinci-
dence did not escape comment that
each of the two Ecumenical Confer
ences in City Road has been called
upon to deplOre the death of an Amer
lean President by assassination.
