RICHARD S. Rowland retires
from the position of managing editor
of the Providence Journal, July 18th.
He will be succeeded by David Nj.
Barry, who has been for many years
Washington correspondent of the
New York Sun. Mr.. Rowland as
sumed the management OF the Jour
nal some years ago. He had at that
time no particular knowledge of the
newspaper business and there is no
reason for thinking that he has ac-
uuired much in the meantime. The
Journal under Mr.. Rowland has
been, it is safe to suppose, a profta-
BILE financial proposition. He hard
ly deserves much credit for that, as
the paper could not help earning
dividends, whatever the manage
ment. Politically it has been-but
we will not attempt to describe the
Journals politics under the, Rowland
regime. 1t is a subject that calls for
treatment from more skillful hands
than ours and we doubt that a
Watterson even, could do it justice.
AS a newspaper it has not lived up
to its opportunities. The advent of
Mr. Barry will be watched with more
or less interest by the people of
Rhode Island. His coming calls to
mind the engagement OF T.. L. White
by the old Star and Press. Mr..
White, it will be remembered, had
made a national reputation as Wash
ington correspondent of the New
York Tribune. On the strength OF
that he was called to take charge OF
the papers owned by the Providence
Press Co. Though brilliant writer
and q cultured gentleman, he wa.
entirely lacking In executive ability
and the papers never recovered from
his few years Of management. II il
quite likely that the new managing
editor of the Journal possesses all thu
requirements for the responsible,
place he is about to fill.

In the early days Of Mcthodlsm I'm the

to have "A colleague, who was frequent

settled portion Of central Illinois more
than fifty years ass. The colleague as
signed 10 him was Brother James
Smith, an excellent young man, but
with very little experience as
preacher
One Sunday Mr.. Thompson had an
appointment at small meeting house
in the cou~try, but having severe
cold he asked his young assistant to 20
along with him and preach the sermon,
and the latter, as in duty bound, obcycd
orders
Brother Smith had never undertaken
to preach in tie presence Of his more
experienced Colaborcr, and when, after
the opening services, he rose aud gave

An electric shock could not have op-
Grated quicker. Brother Smith rose
to his feet again, his hesitation all
gone, and in ringing tones he preached

broad stalrways almost completely
covering the slope. The building Is 800
feet long by $50 feet wide and Is the
largest structure ever provided at an
exposition by the federal government.

large buildings at the Exposition by
the steel truss construction, the entire
roof being supported by steel arches,
forming n splendid domed ceiling.
In this building are installed the ex-
hibits OF all the executive departments

BOY OF THE REGIMENT.

81 G0F1baldi For 4 CONN. ~-

With His DYING Breath He Asked
GaF1baldi For = CONN.
i When EMO Ferretti entered actively
into the Italian war Of independence
he was just seventeen. He left Parma
secretly, deserving, as it were, his "a
ther, mother and family to fight for his
hero, Garibald1. He walked over the
Apennines without penny In his pock-
ct and, arriving half dead at Genoa,
concealed himself on one Of the ships
bound for Sicily. When at his destina-
don he emerged and gained the nick
name Of the hoy of the regiment"
From that time for some months he
fought until the day for rest came. He
was shot in the head and carried to
the hospital In dangerous condition.
Everything possible was done for him,
but it was evident that he was trou-
bled, and at last it came out that he
could not die happy because he had
never seen his hero. II have fought
everywhere and sought always" he ex-
claimed, "but I have never succeeded
In seeing him. How can I die never
having caught glimpse of him."
Another preoccupation was that he
feared he might be buried without a
coffin. Morning, noon and night his
cry was, 'Let me have cofanv' The
very day he died, by a fortunate
chance, Garibaldi arrived at the hos
pttal. Having heard Ferretti's story;
he stopped and spoke to him. The sick
boys expressive face lighted up and
he exclaimed: "Now I can die happy.
Oh, general, let me have coffin!"

TRAGIC IN ITS BREVlTY.

The story Of the Duel Between Ham,

The story Of the Hamilton-B Burr duel
Ia tragic in it's brevity. The little party
Of five-the principals, their seconds
and the surgeon-was on the ground
not long after sunrise. The prelimi-
nar1es were soon arranged. As Pen
dleton, Hamilton's second, gave him
his pistol, he. asked, "Will you have
the hairspring set?"
"Not this time," was the significant
reply, and then the men faced each
other
According to the best authorities up
on disputed subject, Burr fred at the
word. At the report, Hamilton started
forward with convulsive movement,
reeled, involuntarily discharging his
pistol into the foliage above him, and
fell headlong. Burr, with an express
sion Of pain upon his face, sprang to-
ward him, but Van Ness, his second,
seized him by the arm and hurried him
down the bank and into their boat.
Hamilton, being lifted up, revived
for moment and gasped, "This is a
mortal wound, doctorw Relapsing
again into unconsciousness he was
again revived by the fresh air Of the
river. 'Pendleton knows" he said,
trying to turn toward his friends, that
I did not intend to fire at him."

had breathed his last.
