She welcomes them all once more:

The echoing hills have kept your name;
Meadow and woodland still the same;
Lane and love nook-Eay do not weep!
Nothing is changed that love could keep"
The children coming home to-day
Aye. children, if twice twoScore!
Men and women with heads OF gray,
But the old childs heart once more;
Never word of how bad you've been,
How far you We travelled, how sad you've beenI
Door and heart are alike flung wide;
The mothers cheek is aglOw with pride;
The good you have done or have tried to do
These are the Things heard of you.
The children are coming home again
Hark 10 the names knew!
The dear old love names-Win and Ben
And Mary and Dick and Suei
Coming from hFI a world E way

Men and women, they all come back

AND we know why the Lord of the undehled

MAGELssEY's CASE.

The last spark OF excitement has
died out concerning the reported as
sassination of that American consul
in Turkey, and we IRE left to kick
ourselves for being so easy. The
amount OF printers ink wasted in
useless raging overt the brutal muir
der of Mr.. Magelssen would perhaps
serve to print country newspaper
for the next decade, and yet there
would have been some minute hole
out OF which to wriggle had the con-
sui only allowed himself to be shot
at. Instead. however, OF permitting
the puncture ofhis flying swallow tail
or the eradication OF some small por-
ton of his anatomy by II Turkish
bullet. the gentleman. with strange
reconsideration, preferred to emerge
in his entirety, thus disconcertlng
the newspapers and the public. The
American people and the American
newspapers and the Europeansquad
ron deserved better treatment at the
hands of Mr.. Magelssen. II he didh I
core about being Bashi-Bayouked
no might mt least have prevented
that blood curdling assassination
warn from interrupting the financial
discussion at Oyster Bay and the
trust argument at Hot Springs. We
believe it was pre-arragned scheme
on the part of Magelssen to distract
public attention from Langley $
buzzard and Tom Johnson's guber-
material campaign, and we resent
the assurance which leads a PLAIN,
ordinary American consul to place
the matter of his He or death on an
equal plane OF interest with the above
vaudeville stunts. Worse than all,
however. and most distressing Is the
latest report from the sultan as
turbed dominions to the effect that
uarelssen was the victim OF confetti
and not OF bullets. Avoiding party
returning from the union OF some
young and gallant Turk to his SIX
tenth frau. was scandalousiy DIS
respectful with its confetti and a
piece or two lodged on Magelssen-s
massive shoulders, on which rest the
dignity OF Uncle Sans government.
The sacrilege was too much Tor led
dv's sensitive disposition and our
European squadron and Cotton have
gone to warn the Porte that he has
stepped toofa In the meantime our
sympathy goes out somewhat To
Magelssen in this his hour oftrouDle.
Long may the American flag iioat as
a warning tina. such wrongs will be
avenged.
