Mars Shawber, Hero.

We read in an Ohio paper. the other
day, the story of Mars Sha wber. IL
was simple little unvarnished tale,
briefly told by the reporter sent out
to cover" the accident, but In it's
lines was the story of a heroism such
blazond on tablets of bronze. Mars
Shawber was a boy of 10 years, living
in Madisonville, Ohio, While playing
with other children on the track he was
run down by train and his legs were
crushed to pulp under the awful
wheels. When they picked him up he
please don't take me home, it Will
worry mamma" There was a son for
you! He knew his mother had much
work ard many worries, and, knowing
what her anguish would be, he sought
to shield her.
But there was yet more to show the
heroisn of that little soul. When the
CHASTITY work of the surgeons was done
and he awoke to find his mother be-
side him, he realized for the first time
that his legs We're gone. Now in his
heart, Mars had cherished secret.
He had planned after one more year
in school to go to work that he might
help his mother support the family
And now that his legs were gone he
never for moment allowed himself
trated. In the battle of life his lines
had been flung back by the enemy,
but they were not defeated. He rallied
his battered but unwhipped forces, as
Napoleon might in the teeth of defeat,
and then he said, Never mind
mamma l will get well and will be
| able to work, for l have my hands
left"
Think of that degree of courage you
who complain that the march is long
| or the fire of the enemy is hot! When
| was drawer utterauce? Was it when
the last of the OldtsGuard preferred
| death to surrender; OR when the last
Spartan flung his word of defiance as
he died before the on-rushing host of
barbarians at ThePmopylae? We
think not. Nor wastit Drawer thing
| for the admiral to steer his flagship
| over the sunken torpedoes or for the
general to lead his men up to the blaz-
| ing redoubt, than for that little fellow,
with his broken body and unbroken
spirit to hold death and fate at bay.
| Mars Shawber died a few hours later;
the shock had been too great. But
dauntless, tender spirit like that is
deathless.

The final passage of the general staff
bill which the President signed. last
week. on the same day that he signed
the bill creating the department of
commerce is a matter upon which Con-
gress and the country is to be con-
graduated. The measure has long
been agitated and has caused much
diversion in Congress and in army
circles. The President and secretary
or war have earnestly urged it and
there is no question that it will lead 10
many Improvements in the manage
ment of the army. One of it's chief
features is that it does away with the
fiction of having a commander-in-ch chief
while the President is the real and cor.
stitutional head of the army. IT is
worth noting that the bill does not 60
into effect until next August when Cen
eral Miles will retire under the are
limit so the new law in no way inter
feres with him.

Evidently the native Porto Rican is
pretty handy man with his gun, and
as a marksn;an is likely to be a val
liable addition to the fighting forces of
Uncle Sam The war department has
made public the list of sharpshooters
for 1902 to give recognition to the men
who won a place upon it and to in
crease interest in target practice in
the regular army. This shows that the
new Porto Rico regiment carries off
the glory. In the list of carbine sharp
shooters 80 of the 81 names are those
OF members OF that regiment. and nine
teen of these are native Porto Ricans.
The first two in the whole list are
American officers, but the third is a
Porto Rican. Forty-six men in the de-
partment of the east qualified as sharp
shooters with the rifle nine were of
the Porto Rico regiment, though only
two of these were natives In revolver
practice the mounted battalion of the
Porto Ricans took first place; and the
highest company score was made by
e Company of that regiment. Any
thing in the way of rifle records that
the Porto Rico regiment didn't want.
the rest of the army got-that was all.

The magnificent reception which
General William Booth has had in this
county. and particularly at the nation
al capital, is an impressive demon
stration of the fact that the Salvation
Army from humble origin, when it
was ridiculed by the public and prose-
cuted by the law, has grown to a great
organization which commands the re-
spect of all good people. 1t is a world
power and it has accomplished a
measureless amount of good among
the lowly masses where it labors. 1t
has it place and keeps it, and fills it
well. General Booth personally and as
the representative of the organization
ne founded well deserves the tributes
paid him. 81

District Attorney Byington objected,
and said that it was the duty Of the
Judge TO interrOgate Leigh.
Leigh was called to the stand and
after being sworn produced a bundle
which he said he had discovered in a
trunk in the basement of the late Chief
Lees residence. It was marked Bot
kin case" The bundle was opened in
the presence of Attorneys Knight, Heg-
gerty and MCGOWAN for the defendant
and the District Attorney. 1t con-
tanned two empty candy boxes, one
filed with candy, samples Of arsenic
and other samples and papers. 1t was
thought at first that they were the
original exhibits in the case, and sur
prise was expressed at their having
been taken out Of the custody Of the
clerk of the court, which would have
put an end to the case, but investiga-
ton disclosed the fact that not one of
them was marked as an exhibit in the
case. The Judge ordered them placed
in the custody of the clerk.
Knight then said that ne understood
there were fifteen or sixteen boxes
marked "Botkin case" in Leigh's GUS

FRIARS WILL
GIVE Up LANDS
Tt Is Not Believed in Rome
That Many Will Remain in
the Philippine Islands

ROME, Dec 19.-The settlement OF
the friars lands question in the Philip
mines also practically settles, it is con-
sidered here, the question Of the friars
themselves. The Franciscans, It is be-
ueved, will abandon the lands alto
gether, since they have no money to
purchase lands and have no other
means of support. A few of the Recol-
lects will remain. as they have still
some property there. The Dominicans
will be looked after by their university
and the Augustinians will reoccupy' the
building erected at Illoilo, which is now
used by the Americans as a barracks.
and will claim an indemnity from the
Government. The Augustinians will
use the building as school.
1t is believed that the number of
friars remaining in the Philippines
with the consent of the new American
Bishops will not exceed $50, but none
will be sent to the archipelago. owing
to the lack of funds. Under the old
regime Spain paid for the transporta-
ton Of friars to the Philippines.

in the custody of the clerk
Leigh replied that in sixteen boxes
there were papers marked as stated
but they did not contain papers of the
BOtkin case.
The Judge said these papers would
not necessarily be court documents, but
he ordered Leigh to gather them to-
gether and bring them into court. All
the exhibits were in the custody of
Oscar Tolle, the former clerk of the
court, who had them locked up in a
vault at the City Hall. He thought the
better course would be to have Tolle
bring all the exhibits into court and
have them sealed up and placed in the
vault. If there was to be an early trial
perhaps it would be better to leave the
exhibits in Tolle's custody.
The trial was finally set for February
Is, and the exhibits will remain in
Tolle's custody.
Mrs. BotlSin was in court and looked
buxom and smiling. It is apparent that
the fare at the branch County Jail is
agreeing with her.
