What We Have Instead.

Instead, we have the OverpOw-
ering, dominant presence about as
at all times OF thought waves, all
charged with the conviction that
death is a natural consequence;
that it must occur. And death,
thus REINFORCED by the subcon-
scious resignation Of many minds,
steps IN and conquers the feeble
will Of an individual who battles
unnecessarily gaaiust millions OF
combined minds stronger than his
own.
IF every one now, at a certain
moment, a certain hour, should re
solve TO hereafter believe explicitly
that there was no such thing as
death, that we might all live as
long as the world so believed, tive
limit of human life would increase
in proportion to the strength with
which this conviction spread and
death would ultimately be van
pushed.
do I make my meaning plain?
For instance, a noted ruler is sick.
If the family is wise they will not
allow the impression to gain Gre
dence that he is near death. The
public is optimistic He will pull
through all right" it says. The pa
tient feels the influence Of these
subtle thought waves OF confidence
and he does recover generally. On
the other hand, a ruler may be-
come sick. He is near deaths
door will fash the bulletins. The
nations give up hope; a depression
stalks abroad and pals people and
patient alike. The ruler dies.

LAND WITHOUT RUINS.

Yes, give me land where the ruins
are spread,
And the living tread light on the
hearts of the dead;
Yes, give me a land that is blest by
the dust,
And bright with the deeds of the
downtrodden Just.
Yes, give me the land where the bat
ties red blast
Has flashed to the future the fame of
the past;
Yes, give me the land that has legends
and lays,
That tell of memories of long van
ished days;
Yes, give me a land that has story
and song
Enshrining the strife of right with the
wrong.
Yes, give me a land with a grave in
each spot
And names in the grave that shall
ne'er be forgot;
Yes, give me a land of the wreck and
the tomb,
There is granduer in graves; there is
glory in gloom;
For out of the gloom future brightness
is born
AS after the night comes the sunrise
of morn;
And the graves of the dead with grass
overgrown
May yet form a footstool of liberty's
throne,
And each single wreck in the war
path of might,
Shall yet be rock in the temple OF
right.-Father Ryan.

BROWNSVILLE AFFAIR
IS AGAIN TO THE FORE

companies from the service without
honor"
The debates in the Senate were di-
rected mainly to a discussion of the
Presidents power in making the
wholesale dismissal. There was some
discussion, of course, as to whether
the soldiers were or were not guilty
of the shooting, and it was in one of
these cross-fires that Senators Spoon
er and Tilman clashed in their bitter
controversy on the race question.
Late in January, 1907. a resolution
was adopted directing the Committee
on Military Affairs to make an in
vestigation into the facts connected
with the shooting. In the committee
as on the Senate floor, Senator For
aker of Ohio espoused the cause of
the colored men. Senator Warner of
Missouri was chosen to see that the
Administration interests at the hear
ing were protected. For four months,
with only a few Interruptions, the
committee held almost daily sessions.
in all, 1906 witnesses were examined
These witnesses included army Off
GERS, gun experts, colored and white
soldiers. residents of Brownsville, and
others.
On June IA, 1907, the committee
took a recess. Before the committee
and elsewhere the soldiers strenuously
denied that they were guilty of the
shooting, or that they had any
knowledge as to who was responsible
for the outrage. No witnesse was able
to identify any particular soldier
charged with being involved in the
ARRAY. A majority of the members
of the committee were convinced
that the shooting was the work of
the soldiers, and that the President
was within his constitutional rights
in ordering the dismissal of the three
companies.
On May 13 last the measure for re-
instatement of the colored soldiers
came up in the Senate. Senator For
aker, the champion Of the negroes
moved for a postponment of the vote
until December. After motion by
