Another Memorial Day has
passed into history.
There will be many more, Cod
grant, in the history Of our ooun-
try, but soon-too soon, alas the
exercises in memory Of those brave
men and boys who gave their lives
for their country's need will have
to be intrusted to a Younger genera
ton.
For the thin blue line is passing.
Only a fragment Of the Grand
Army Of the Republic remains, and
as these, aged and bent, but still
with the fire Of pride in their old
eyes and their pulses beating faster
to the martial strains, passed along
the streets Of Washington yester-
day It was a scene Of deep pathos
and infinite significance.

alert, and with steady step and heads
erect marched IN perfect rhythm on the
duty appointed, and here and there the
gaps iu the lines OF the younger men
were broken by a little company Of the
vete-ans-uen who have earned their
ease, but who. despite their years. can
not be held back from paying the memor-
ial tribute TO the comrades who died
by their side.
Some Of them walked on heavy canes:
some Of them carried umbrellas; there
were veterans who had 10 be supported
on the march. There were men who
llmPed from bullet wounds received in
the years long gone. and In the broken
ranks more than one empty sleeve spoke
more eloqueutly than words OF the part
these men had taken IN the saving OF
the Union.
PathOs in Contrast
And there was the added pathos that
comes by contrast TOO; for here and there
a veteran marched accompanied by his
grandchildren. There were little boys
clad in khaki. hardly realizing at all tie
grim significance OF the march TO Airing

grizzled warrior 20 whose coat hung a
tiny girl all dressed in white and carry

II is plain that the same spirit ami
mates the veterans who survive as ami
mated those who followed Sherman so
gaIlantly in his march 10 the sea" To
many the long walk must have been
painful and a burden. but there was no

1urner,s Little Afterthouaht.

An English critics reference to Iur-
ner's fine picture The Wreck Buoy
reminds faithful newspaper reader
of a curious anecdote In connectioh
with it. When Turner first sent this
picture to the Royal academy 1t was
hung among several brilliantly coloreu
pictures. On vanishing day Turner
found the effect of his duh gray rem
dering of stormy sea altogether
spoiled by its bright SURROUNDINGS.
without q moments hesitation ne
painted in the lighted buoy in the fore
ground, and its dab of crimson light
showed so brilliantly in its gloomy set
ting that Turner's picture became the
prominent one. and its rivals on each
side were cast into the shade. 1t is
curious, if true, that the most notice
able feature of the picture should have
been an Observation-Disclosures Tran

The shrswd Banker.

Thirteen years ago banker lent a
farmer $1,000 with which to buy stock.
The farmer. of course. gave his note.
The borrower lost on the stock deal
and had hard luck generally. so he
couldn't pay the note. Later he went
away, and after many years he made
good again and returned. The banker
tried to collect his note, but 1t was
outlawed by lapse of thirteen years
One day the banker stopped at the
mans farm and admired his fine pump
kins. The farmer made him pres
ent of two large ones.

ACROSS THE BORDER.
A Mirror of Events Transporting In the
 NelRhborlng Republic.

Mexican Herald: Construction work on the railroad connecting the old Rosario mine with the Loreto Hacienda has been sus- pended at the instance of the Pachuca Light Power and Railway company on the ground that an in. iringement of this company's rights is being carried out. A very speedy settlement is confidently antici- pated and work immediately re- sumed. The construction of this road was far advanced, the Pachuca and Real del Monte company being desirous of reopening the old Rosa rio mine and other mines, immed. lately joining, as soon as possible. The renewal of operations in this division of the Real del Monte company's mines willprovide work for fully one thousand hands which will be practically permanently needed in order to carry out the plans of the company in forming an independent section of these mines.
 Mexican Herald: Preparations for the taking of the census con tinue to be made in all parts of the republic under the chief of the sec- ton on statistics, Dr. Antonio Penafiel, who has grown old in the work of this department, to which the late Carlos Pasheco called him twenty.eight years ago, and which work the two, working together, brought to it's present state of per- lection. As is evident from the topography of the country, the want of travelling facilities in some parts, and the fact that there are ffty.fve different dialects to be COntended with the taking of the census is not as easy here as it is in some countries. But Dr. Pe6a. 6el stated yesterday that in the thirty-one political divisions of the republic he now has record of every city, town, village and ranch, to the very remotest parts. He believes now that the numbering of the houses, families and occu- pants will be comparatively easy. The work up to the present time has continued two years. and, as four years are usually granted for the taking of the census in large countries, including the publica. ton of the same, there are two years left for the completion of the work. But Dr. Pefa6el feels sure that in very short time the day appointed for the taking of the census, October 27, a correct report Of the number of inhabitants of the republic can be secured.
