It was very splendid, that marriage

SPANS GLORY white horses, the
AND SHAME flags, the marvel
Gus vestments, the gems, the music
royalty and nobility on dress parade
and a proud and ostentatious nation
showing the world how it could receive
an English princess and do her honor.
If memories were stirred they we're
of past g%lories which grew more and
more impressive the farther back they
were traced; for that is the land which
was foremost in Europe only a dozen
generations back, a land of heroes,
scholars, orators, poets; 1t is the land
whose queen had the inspiration to
make possible the pushing back from
the face of the Atlantic the veil and
revealing a new world in the west;
it is the land whose people were great
enough long ago to drive from their
sod Rome's imperial legions, a land
where valor and romance and chivalry
held their seats for centuries-the
ideal land of all the earth for gen
erations. And this royal marriage
seemed for the hour to stop and roll
back the wheels of the ages, and to
call to lips for the occasion all the
splendor, all the pomp, all the graces
of the days when among the nations
she stood first, without a rival.
1t was altogether gorgeous, nothing
like it has been seen in modern times
and the young king and queen will,
all their lives, hold the memory of it
as something more magnificent than
anything Europe has seen since the
days of chivalry.
Still as one reflects upon it, a sad
ness comes to the heart for really the
masses of that fair land are distress
ingly poor, and hundreds who shouted
their vivas as the glittering procession
flashed past, had had no breakfast.
Not only are the masses poor, but
the percentage of the illiterate among
them is appalling. Worse still, their
sufferings have been so great that the
manhood of the men, the w~omanhood
of the women nave been tainted past
regeneration. There is no fair division
of the nation s wealth among the peo-
pie. A few are very rich, the great
host is made up of men and women
who are poor past description and chill
dren growing up in ignorance so pro-
found that the heal is touched at the
spectacle.
May the marriage be an omen of
good. May the young king and queen
be inspired with a desire to restore
some of Spain IS lost grandeur by kind
ling hope in the hearts of her poor.
In these later days thrones rest on
precarious foundations. The only safe
ty for the strongest one is in doing
justice to the people; justice which
goes to improving their material CON
dition and in lighting the lamp of
knowledge in their souls.
hTe cry of the world for this grows
louder and louder. May sits echoe
reach Spain; may they enter the i'm
perial palace and awaken an ambition
in the souls of this young king and
quen, to make for themselves greater
than was Philips or Isabella 5, and to
exalt themselves by bending and lift
ing up their humble subjects. No king
ever engaged in higher work. May it
in future be told that the recreation
of Spain had it's dawn in the reign of
Alfonso and Ena.-Goodwin $ Weekly.

To Test Rights of Congress.

Arguments in case to test the power of
Congress to regulate interstate commerce
were made before Judge Humphrey in the
United States district court at Springfield.
ILL.,. Saturday. Arguments were on q de-
murrer of the Baltimore and Ohio South
western railroad to a decision in which the
railroad was charged with operating q
freight train without 30 per cent Of the
train being equipped with safety appliances.
as provided by the interstate commerce
act.
The railroad asserts that the train was a
local freight, and not engaged in interstate
commerce. The government contends that
the Baltimore and Ohio southwestern Is an
interstate road, and that therefore Congress
has a right to regulate its trains.
Judge Humphrey took the case under adj
visement On preliminary arguments some
time ago In the case. Judge Humphrey init
mated he could not see what right Con-
gress had to regulate railroad traffic within
a state, but said he desired to hear further
arguments

May Flies Not Numerous This Year

The annual pest Of May flies now exists.
The flies are not SO annoying, however, as
during the past four or Ave years. They are
also arriving later than usual. as the fishing
season on the river is practically over The
flies, as rule. make their appearance dur
ing the height of the fishing season. and in
seasons when herring and shad are plentiful
in the river are most numerous. This sea-
son the catch of shad and herring was light,
and there are. following out the fishermen
theory. comparatively few May flies to be
seen. In past years the pests have been so
numerous that the flies, attracted by the
electric lights on the piers, would fly into
the lights until their half-cooked bodies
would almost fill the big globes and inter
fere seriously with the burning of the lights
Such has not happened this season. The
boys along the river front have a theory
that fish bite at May flies better than other
bait, and. with bottles In their hands which
they use as receivers. are capturing the flies
for use as food for the fishes.

WILL NOT HALT IRON TRADE.
Mills Not Likely Seriously to Be At
fected by Late Strike.

Cleveland, O., May 3.--The Iron
Trade Review today says the strike OF
the Longshoremen's union has resulted
In the temporary paralysis of lake
traffic. As the lake carriers two years
ago established their position in OPP
position to their representatives, the
captains, being members of any union
and as the >-ltes are assistant cap
tains, the attempt to force the mates
into the union will be resisted. The
vessel owners will fight for what they
regard very important principle and
will soon begin the operation of the
justice of their position and of their
ability to break tie strike. Very few
of the mates have shown any dispo-
sition to sympathize with the strike.
Fortunately nearly all furnaces are
prepared to continue in blast for from
six to eight weeks and some could run
three months without an additional ton
Of ORE While the amount of ore ship
ped this month will undoubtedly be
reduced, 1t does not seem probable that
the manufacturer of iron will be in
terfered with to any great extent. The
final outcome of the strike promises to
be much more satisfactory relation
Of employers and employees
All the information obtainable in
regard to conditions IN San Francis 20
indicates that the demand for structure
al material will not be felt to any ap-
probable extent for several months.
Insurance Is now being adjusted and 1t
is not expected that any contracts Will
be made prior to July 1. About the
only orders received to date are for
small tonnages OF merchant pipe and
roofing, which will be promptly filled.
1t is estimated that 10000 tons of
structural material can not be used for
number of months, and as the total
production Of these shapes for this
year will be about 100000 tons the
demand growing cut of the earthquake
and fire can be easily met. A single
modern mill with a capacity of 500
tons per day could soon roll all the
shapes which will be required.
