q. Clay Evans Crimps His Brow.
(WnShinpton Post EditnriaT

We note with respectful interest the
semi-Ofiicial announcement that Hon. II.
Clay Evans lately Commissioner of Pen
siOns, has received IAN informal tender"
Of the Consul at London. and
that he now has the matter under consid-
GRAFTON. OF course, everybody felt sure
that, in his capacity as n martyr to relent-
less persecution, Mr.. Evans would be Civ
en- something equally as good if not bet
ter. 1t has come to pass of late years
that our Government, when it sacrifices
one Of its officials to any public clamor,
whether righteous or insenSatc, at once as
SAUCES the sorrows of the victim by pro-
motion The expedient is stuffed with vir-
tue. for in this way the Administration
satisfies the kickers and earns the ever
lasting affection of the kicked. One makes
friends thus ''a-comin' and a-goin,' and
rosy lights enyeiop the prospect of the
nominating year.
1t is not pleasant, though, to hear that
Mr.. Evans has this friendly, not to say
fiattering, overture under consideration
The office is n fat One-much fatter than
that from which the Tennessee statesman
has just been homeland has the ten
fold attraction of ease, large revenue. So
cial Importance lin London, and prob
ability Of witnessing the legs Of Mr..
Whitclaw Reid next June as he minces
idIitily diOuB III the tOTODdllDn pageant.
To come down TO coarse commercial con-
siderationS, the place is n snap. 1t pays
at least four times as much as that which
Mr.. Evans has just vacated. 1t involves
no work at all, and it is lush beyond the
dreams Of the average ofice-claSer Why,
then, does Mr.. Evans cOrrugate his classic
brow and frown with ufiish thought? Why
are we left in the cruel clutches of uncer-
taintyi The White House herald tells us
That the position Just suits the tastes of
Mr.. Evans'-as no doubt it does-and
then adds that the announcement of the
Presidents informal tender puts n stop
at the White House to putting candidates
before the President for this much-desired
Office SO we languish in a maze Of doubt
and bleed under an affliction of disheveled
rhetoric. Will he, or will he not?
Mr.. Evans should take pity upon the
American people and declare himself with
out delay. Everybody longs to have him
take the place. Even Chattanooga is re-
signed to the prospect of his deportation
London and the British aristocracy yearn
for him. Speak, oh speak, Bezonian Any
thing is better than suspense.

The Sights pain, its pride?
Not while the living honor yet
The living ones who died.

Mark timer the fife and drum.
/ hear the tread Of marching men
Come down the cheering street;
They pass me by today as when
/ heard their living feet.
Goodbys are echoing on the air,
And tears from eyelids start,
And more than half our lives are wher
True love has left its heart,
with those Ii loves-On wars red plain,
Beneath the bolt of doom;
Or where II lies on beds of pain;
Or in a soldiers tomb.

One face, o God, my bOyi
So cold so pale; and thou, my heart,

Within the grave where now thou art,
With my boy laid away.
What visions rise Again near

And once again / hope and fear
As by the dead l stand.
Again | hear the cannons' roar,
The hurtling, shrieking shell,
And see the bloOd-red scythes Of war

And NOW, and NOW. and leave the grain
The harvest of the years,
On Northern hill and Southern plain.
Beneath II rain of tears.
Though victory crowned the Union blue,
And failure crowned the gray;
Though slavery's shackles broke in two
When freedom won the day,
Yet. oh. the cost, | see 1t all
Today again-the pain,
The joy reborn beneath a pail,
That barely smiled again.
And so, on this Memorial Day.
| mourn the loved and lost.
oh, brothers blue and brothers gray,
Whose hearts have paid the cost.
No more wars blood-red banners gloom
Above divided lands.
But peace Outreaches from the tomb
And joins our sundcrcd hands.
The dead have bought the right of way,
Their blood hath freedom sealed
oh. brothers blue and brothers gray,
On many n battlefield.
And freedom rises from the grave
Immortal and sublime.
And lays the sacrifice they gave
Upon the breast of time.

The Death of Congressman Peter ]. otey.

Maj. p. J. Otey, Representative in Con
gress from the 9th Vii sinia District, died
at his home in Lynchburg, Va, on Sun
day afternoon, at $3.50 o'clock, from heart
disease complicated with diabetes. He
had been suffering from this ailment for
about two years, but his condition was
known but to few, and his death was a
surprise to all except his immediate fam
lily. So little was known Of his condition
that he was named on the Funeral Com
mittee Of the House TO accompany the re-
mains OF the late Amos J. Cummings to
New York. He had only been absent from
his seat for few days, and his colleagues
had no suspicion of his approaching death.
Maj. Otey was Il member of a prominent
family in Virginia and the last of seven
brothers, all of whom served in the Con
federate army. He was n civil engineer
by profession. He entered the Confeder-
ate army in 1861. serving in the west. in
the early days of the war, being present
at DOnelson and Shiloh. He received a
severe wound at the battle of New Mar
llet after his return to the Army of North
ern Virginia, and after recovering. four
months later, commanded n brigade, being
senior field officer, at the battle OF Cedar
Creek, under Early. He is survived by a
widow and three married daughters. He
was G2 years of age last December.

Another Sort Of Lady.
Pittsburg Bulletin.)

The following story is told of Rudyard
Kipling's maternal grandfather, the Rev.
George b. Mcdonald, a Wesleyan clergy
man:
1t is related of this gentleman that in
the days when he was counting the lady
whom he afterwards married, the father
in-law to bean aged Methodist with ex-
tremely strict notions in regard to the pro-
prieties-was injudiciOus enough on one
occasion TO enter the parlor without Civ
ing any warning of his approach. The
consequence was that he found the sweet
hearts occupying single chair
Deeply shocked by this spectacle, the
old man solemnly said:
MIR. Mcdonald, when | was counting
Mrs. Brown she sat on one side of the
room and on the other"
McDonald's reply was:
That's what / should have done if
had been counting Mrs. Brown"

The Indiana Republican Convention
adopted the following plank in the plat
form:
I'VE recognize as a continuing obliga-
ton the debt of gratitude due from the
Republic to the soldiers and sailors whose
yalor saved the life of the Nation, and
those who won glory for its flag in Mex
leo, in the recent war with Spain, in the
Philippines and in China. A proper recog-
milton of this sacred obligation demands
that liberal provision be made by pensions

In this connection one thinks Of Old Abe

There is, however, one aspect Of the
incident worthy of especial mention: The
