THE GOLDEN CHAIN.

TIE SOIDEN S1AiN.
Though have heard much noble
speech Of man
strengthening the bands Of human
brotherhood,
Fostering our faith in Heavens great
clemency
Yet, once, that kinship gained a
wider span,
A moment then l saw the Eternal
Good,
And hope leapt up and touched ON
certainty.
But twas no bard that sang me burn
ing words,
No seer's prophetic voice that fred
my soul,
Nor lyric rapture of overwhelmed
birds,
Descant of great-voiced waves, nor
thunder roll
But from one small, despised. unloye.
ly throat,
Low in the grass about my stray
ing feet,
Rose to my ears, and to my heart.
the note
That woke my whole world to new
spiritlight.
l had gone forth the early day to
greet,
And where the meadows to the pool
sloped down,
Fresh wakened from his winter sleep,
and bright
In his new livery of gold and brown,
There leapt a frog, whom the great
life force drew
To seek the waterside and find his
mate.
And we two met and crossed our des-
tinies-
For, on the instant, crouched he in
the dew,
Fearing this overload of his small
fate,
And | made pause and lightly
pressed upon
His form, with idle foot. Then, sud-
denly,
Sinking his head between his out
stretched hands
AS one might bend before a heads
mans blade
He cried aloud; God, how he cried
to me!
The morning silence of those meadow
lands
Thrilled to the harsh, high pitched,
imploring cry,
That shocked me with its half hui
manity;
1t caught me by the heart, its poor
fear made
A love, | might have scorned an hour
before,
Leap in my breast: "Ah, little
brother mine,
| harm thee?-No; go thou my life
drawn way"
And then the Universal Love upbore
My SOUL saw the golden chain
outshine
That links all life; and In the new
made day
that small fate
saw then as my own; in that poor
cry
heard my prayers TO God; and while
live
Remembering how my soul rocked
yearningly
! know the only answer God can
give.

ROMANCE OF CORPORAL HANS.
Son of German Nobleman Dies In
Manila.

Corporal Hans Won Wuesthoff, 9th
infantry, is dead, says the New York
Times. Wuesthoff was perhaps the
best-known enlisted man in the
United States army. There was
hardly a man in the regular service
from bugler to acknowledgement who
had not heard his romantic story.
Just before the outbreak of the
Spanish war Wuesthoff arrived in
New York. He came over in Ger
man liner, and. although he spoke
English fluently and was a man of
splendid appearance, he failed to get
employment. Then came the war
with Spain. The young German did
not hesitate a minute and he was
among the very first of the recruits
enlisted for the regular establishment
In this city.
The bearing of the new recruit at
tracted the attention of his command.
ing officers, who the momnet they
looked him over realized that he was
no ordinary sort OF soldier. They
questioned him and learned that he
was the son of German nobleman
and that while student at Heidel.
berg he had fought a duel with an.
other student that had resulted I'm his
expulsion from the university.
At the time of his trouble at Heidel-
berg his roommate was Count Won
Groetschen, destined to be one of the
most popular officers in the kaiser's
army. Won Groetschen was among
the last OF the friends in the old coun.
try that Wuesthoff told good-by, Just
before he started on the drift that was
to land him In New York.
At the battle of Santiago Count
Won Groetschen, who was one of the
officers sent over by the kaiser IN
watch the American soldier in his ac-
ton recognized the roommate of his
college days at Heidelberg. Wues-
thoff was going into action at the
time and had only time to wave a
greeting. After the battle in which
Won Wuesthoff distinguished himself
for bravery In the face of fire, the two
met again and talked over old times.
Then they said good-by a second time
and so far as is known never met
again.
After the war, Wuesthoff, who had
been made corporal, was sent To
Fort Thomas, KY, with the 9Th in.
rantry. He wrote a wonderful hand
and on the arrival of the regiment a,
Fort Thomas the German corporal
was assigned to the duty of keeping
the records OF the command. Today
those records are said to be the most
perfect to be found on file in any mil
itary post in the country.
From Fort Thomas the 9Th went te
Manila. In the Philippines the YOUNG
German kept up his good record
Ihen he contracted fever and despite
all that the surgeons in the army hos.
pital at Manila could do, died. His
body wss buried among the American
regulars in the military cemetery at
Manila.
