The Time to Surrender.

It was stated in our cablegrams yes!
terday that General Stoessel, the Rus
sian commander at Port Arthur. had re-
fused TO surrender the place. declaring
that his garrison would fight to the last
man in defense of the fortress.
That is magnificent but it IS not COM
mon sense. There is now no doubt that
Port Arthur is doomed to fall, and ave
cannot see what Is to be gained on the
part of the Russian commander by
holding out until his gallant men have
sacrificed their lives In hopeless strug-5
gle. It is unfair to his own men and to
the helpless Inhabitants OF Port Arthur,
and in one sense 1t is unfair: to the Jap
anese The Japs are ready, we take 1t.
10 offer honorable terms Of surrender.
and they should not be compelled TO
slaughter men. and possibly women and
children. who are now in their power. (
n We have often remarked that in our;
view General Lee was grander at APP
pomattox than upon any occasion OF his,
trlumphs. He knew that he could pro-.
long the war; he knew that his men
would stand BY him Until the last one
had fallen; he knew that he could, by,
retreating into the mountains. keep up
desultory fight for q long time to come,
and that ne could annoy and distress tho
enemy Indefinitely. But he saw that
further struggle was useless; he saw
that the cause was lost, and having made
I.up his mind to that effect, he deter
mined that there should be no further
sacrifice of life. He fought as long as
there was hope, but he knew when the
time to surrender had come, and he was
courageous enough and noble enough TO
give up the struggle. It was this trait Of
character which differentiated him from
the ambitious military men OF other days,
who fought for their own fame and glory,
and which distinguished him as one OF
natures noblemen. He was great SOL
der and gave abundant evidence OF his
military genius, of his courage and or
his fighting qualities on many field
OF battle. But he was more than this /;
he was a great man. great and good and
unselfish. never thinking OF himself. never
seeking to exploit himself. fighting only
for principle and for cause which wus
dear to his heart. but keeping always in
view as his rule Of conduct his famous
saying that duty is the subllmest word.
The commander who fights TO the last
| ditch and refuses to surrender calls for
admiration for such courage and pluck
arc admirable But greater to be adj
mired Is the nobleman who has the
moral courage to sacrifice personal ambi-
ton for the sake OF humanity II IL
sometimes nobler 10 yield than TO fight.

Thursday Club Observe 10th Anni-
versary Entertaining Husbands.
STAR EVENT OF THE SEASON.
Entertained in Edwin Delahoyde
Home. Tin Anniversary. Bounti-
full Supper. Evening Spent
at Finch aud Panic.

One of the most delightfully."- en-
tertained crowds that has been in
town lately was the opening of the
doors of the Club Thursday night
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin
Delahoyde to their annual feast day
and at this time tin anniversary.
The guests were invited to be
present at seven and each member
of the Club was given hair orna.
inent typical of the event. After a
few moments of animated con-
versation each gentleman was
given picture cut in half and ask
ed to find the other half that, lady
being designated as his partner.
Much amusement was afforded all
guests in finding their partners and
when all were mated they found
seats at the tables convenient for
tour guests and the committee
began serving the banquet If any
had eaten before they went they
were sorry for the food set before
them was not only tempting but
attested to the fact that the mem
bers of the Club need not take a
back seat for any one in the
mysteries of the culinary art. The
last course of ice cream and cake
was served on tin plates with bow
of the Club colors that each guest
was supposed to carry home as a
souvenir, and as each guest fasten-
ed the plates to them with the
carnations given to each made
some Of the gentlemen look like
soldiers with all the decorations
possible to wear.
After supper all settled down to
playing finch aud the time passed
very pleasantly aud too swiftly for
all present. This is always a
notable event in the Club that this
year surpasses all others and will
long live in the memory of all the
guests.
