We are accustomed to think thr.t the
loftiest type of heroism is developed
„ .in war. The bat
in the I< ace of
tie fi eld and the
Deuth. hospital are starred
with the red badge of courage.
But it is to be found also in the
solitude of the New England farm
house, or on the isolated western
ranch, it is nourished by lofty Chris
tian ideals, and thrives by the daily
practice of homely virtues. On a
Maine farm, relates the Youth's Com
panion, a mile from neighbors, lived
alone an old couple. The wife was a
frail, slender woman, long incapaci
tated for hard work, but helped in all
her heavier tasks by her vigorous and
devoted husband. In midwinter he
•was stricken with pneumonia. When
the disease was at its height a furious
snowstorm came on. Koads were
blocked, and even the faithful country
doctor could not make his way to his
patient. The old man knew himself
to be dying. lie knew that two days
might elapse before doctor, friend or
undertaker could reach the house.
"With the prevision of love, he saw his
wife alone in her sore need. Slowly his
fevered mind pictured the grim and
grewsome details of death, and he re
solved upon one final effort for her re
lief from some of them. Painfully and
with long intervals for rest and breath
lie rose from his bed, and little by lit
tle made a careful toilet, lie threw
off the clothing of his illness, and
donned, one garment at a time, his
best Sunday knit. When the last touch
was put to this manly preparation he
stretched himself again upon the bed,
folded his hands, and with a smile into
the loving, trustful face of his old
wife, he breathed his lart. So the
neighbors found him the next morning.
Could the world's battle fields show
finer example of "unbounded courage
and compassion joined?"
It is interesting to note how the
title that any member of an American
Doubtful filory '«"nily may acquire
she d s its luster
of n Till". , ,
over tlie w hole
family. They all bask in its borrowed
radiance—assuming that a title sheds
radiance and in spite of the fact that it
only too often does not. A title's a
title for a' that, seems to be the para
phrase among some of Uncle Sam's
citizens, says the New York Sun. The
fact that a Philadelphia girl w ho mar-
Tied the other day'had beauty, money
and position seemed to be of small mo
ment. Iler parents, even, were scarce
ly mentioned in the newspaper reports
of llie wedding. All other considera
tions were eclipsed by the other fact
that her sister had married a titled for
eigner, and not a very big title at that.
In every published account the bride
was desciibed not as "daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. but as the "sister of
Countess ." The fact that the
marriage of this same countess' sis
-ler turned out most unhappily, and
that, finding it impossible to live with
her husband, she was some years ago
obliged to get a legal separation,
eounts for nothing. The title's the
thing.
Seldom has there been a more beau
tiful ceremonial than was observed in
a New England coast town last month
in memory of the sailors who went out
to sea during llie year, and did not
come back. The congregation of the
teamen's chapel walked down to the
end of the pier, and after all had joined
in a prayer said by a clergyman, tWS
little children threw 09 bouquets into
the ocean, one for each missing sailor.
Then they all sang, "Jesus, lyover of
My Soul," and returned to the chapel.
This, in its simplicity and its signifi
cance, reminds one of the celebration
in ancient Greece more than of the
practices of the unimaginative and ma
terialistic twentieth century.
Some woman has calculated that 20,-
000,000 milieu pies placed on top of one
another will make a monument of indi
gestion 315 miles high. What an ab
surd thing to do with pie! If the mon
ument were built it. would not be three
minutes before the btw* would be un
dermined by boys who would bring the
fabric crashing to the earth, thus dis
tributing stomach aches and plenty to
315 miles of the pie belt. Glorious
dream! Useless calculation!
THE CONGRESSIONAL CONTEST
liepnl>lU'n iiN I'repnrlng for Cnrcful
Work OuriiiK <he Comiiils
CniuiuiiKii.
The republican* of the country at
large will be pleased to know that
their representatives in Washington
are alive to the importance of the elec
tion for the national legislature which
is 1o be chosen a few months hence.
There is to be a general reorganization
of both the republican and the demo
cratic congressional campaign com
mittees. For the past few congres
sional canvasses the repub;4cans have
liatl a very efficient congressional cam
paign committee. It is their object to
make the new one still more effective
if possible. Each state is to select its
own member of the committee. Con
siderable care will be shown in the
choice of the members. The object is
to get the most and the best work (lone
which is possible. Much depends on
the personnel of the committee, a fact
which is well known to the leaders of
the party throughout the country, says
the. St. Louis U lobe-Democrat.
It, is easy to show that the canvass
for congress in 11)02 will be of special
importance to the republican party
and the country. Twenty-nine mem
bers have been added to the roll of
the house of representatives by the
apportionment which was made last •
year on the basis of the census of 1900.
The house, which will be chosen in the
latter part of this year will have ."i.sli
members, and, of course, will lie that
much larger than the largest house
which the country has had. All sec
tions of the country— New Kngland,
the old middle states, the south, tin
middle west and the west -will get
some of the additional members. It
is to the interest of the republicans of
every state and every district to select
their best men for the candidacy. The
democrats are going to make a des
perate effort to gain the house which
is to be chosen this year. They want
to control fine branch of congress in
the last half of the presidential term.
There are particular reasons why the
republicans should defeat them in ibis
purpose. Much important legislation
growing out of the war with Spain will
remain over to the congress which i.-
to be chosen this year. The republican
party, which controlled the country
during that war and ever since then
should make an especial endeavor to
netain power until all the issues grow
ing out of that conflict are settled.
Every congressional contest begin
ning with IMI4 has been won by the
republicans. This is an unusually long
period of uninterrupted success by
one party. Nothing like it has been
known before since the second elec
tion of Grant as president in 1872. It
has been the fate of both the great
parties since t hen to drop out of power
in the house of representatives at
shorter intervals than this along un
til the republicans got control of that
body in the contest of 1894. Almost
always the margin of the party which
has the president is smaller in the con
gress chosen in the middle of his term
than it was in that elected with him.
The republicans have a lead of over 4(i
in the present house. They could lor.c
a few members and still have a fail
working majority in that chamber.
Hut they should see to it that they re
tain their present lead or increase it.
The outlook for a republican victory is
good in the election this year. A vic
tory cannot be gained, however, no
mat t er how good the record oft he par
ty may be in the presidency and con
gress, except by intelligent prepara
tion and hard work. The republican
congressional campaign committee
which is to be formed a week or two
hence is to be intrusted with the im
portant task of organizing victory.
OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
Bryan need not have gone to
Washington to learn that those who
propose to control the democratic
party hereafter are against him.—ln

pressing his opinions any more than
he is of swimming a river or capturing
an insurgent general, lie appears to
have a natural love of danger.—Wash

IE?" Free traders are perfectly willing
that the United States shall protect
foreign sugar growers, provided it can
be done by breaking down the meas
ures protecting our own sugar pro
ducers.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
ICMr. Bryan was interviewed in
Washington recently and is quoted as
declaring that it was impossible to say
at this time just what the. principal
issue of the democrats next time would
be. "It may be finance, the trust ques
tion or that of imperialism. It looks
now as though this last would be the
issue." If Mr. Bryan is permitted to
make the platform there will be the
old issue over again, and that will be
Brvan himself. lndianapolis News
(hid.).
J. Bryan wants the dem
ocratic. party to make a fight on "im
perialism"' in the canvas of 1902. Such
democratic papers as the Atlanta Con
stitution. the Nashville American and
the Memphis Commercial-Appeal tell
1 heir part y to steer clear of flag' furling
in any shape, and to advocate the re
tention of all the territory we have.
I On expansion, as well as on nearly ev
ery great question, the democracy is
split near the middle. Mr. Bryan is a
hypnotic man, but he will hardly be
able fo commit, his party to any such
suicidal policy as the abandonment of
the Philippines. The republicans hold
the. winning side on all the great ques
tions which will be before the country
this year.—St. Louis Globe-Democrut.

FOR AND AGAINST BRYAN.

of tlie Former Candidate'.*
l.eaderfihlp.
Two things noted of Mr. Bryan's
latest visit to Washington are very
suggestive. One is that his recep
tion on the senate side of the eapitol
was less cordial than on the house
side, and the other is that the young
er men of the party are tin; ones who
seek him out, says the Washington
Star.
Mr. Bryan was never a favorite
of the democratic members of the
senate, and years seem not to de
velop any fondness for him in that
quarter. His nomination in 1896 up
set some ardent senatorial hopes and
a most carefully arranged senatorial
programme. The rousing young ora
tor from Nebraska was not on the
senatorial horizon when the nominat
ing convention met that year. Mr.
Teller carried the senatorial wishes
The idea was that what had failed
in 1572 with Horace Gr#eley in the
lead could win 21 years later with
the senator from Colorado in the
lead. The republicans were to be di
vided by nominating an ex-member
of their party for president, and in
that way defeated. But Mr. Bryan,
with a rattling stump speech, changed
the whole face of things, and sena
tors he then discomfited have never
forgiven him.
Mr. Bryan has from the outset been
the choice of the younger men of the
party. They "whooped it up" for
him at Chicago at the time of his
first nomination. A young man him
self, handsome, confident, and elo
quent, he appealed to them strong
ly. It tickled them greatly to see
him elbow his way to the front, and
displace veterans like Bland and
Boies and Blackburn; and when he
did so they seized the standards in
the convention hall and formed that
marching procession of howling en
thusiasts whose demonstration made
the nomination. And the young men
of the party are still very proud of
their young leader. They cling to
him even in defeat, and neglect no
opportunity to testify to their admi
ration and devotion.
We see then in this the difficulty
under which the democratic party at
present labors. The older members
are anti-Bryan. They have support
ed him twice, but they see his short
comings as a leader and are not pa
tient under a proposition to try him
again. Time is a great element in
their calculations. If they are to
witness the return of their party to
power it must be soon. The younger
men are not disturbed by this con
sideration. They, too, want to win,
but when Mr. Bryan says that the
party can afford to wait for success
and must meanwhile stick to prin
ciples, they hearken as to a man of
grit and character. Still, if success
is to be achieved, the older men and
the younger men must get together,
and under Mr. Bryan or somebody
else work like the nation with but
one etui in view. A party divided
against itself cannot win.
SENATORIAL MALIGNANCE.
EiTortn of Senator Teller to Cast
Odium on Gen. Fnnstini's llril
llnnt Exploit.
The country has been furnished an
other remarkable illustration of the
contemptible attitude of anti-expan
sionists in the senate towards our sol
diers in the Philippines. A few days
ago the senate went into executive
session to consider the treaty agreed
upon by The Hague peace conference
relative to the conduct of war on land
or sea. "The provisions of the treaty
relate to the use of expansive bullets,
poisoned arms, the treatment of
wounded, the treatment of flags of
truce, etc. One provision is that "ruses
of war and the employment of meth
ods necessary to obtain information
about the enemy and the country are
allowable." A spy was defined as fol
lows: "An individual can only be con
sidered a spy if acting clandestinely,
or on false pretenses he obtains, or
seeks to obtain, information in the
zone of operations of a belligerent,
with the intent of communicating it
to the hostile party." The treaty has
been agreed to and signed by 24 gov
ernments. When it came up in the sen
ate Senator Teller desired to know if
the American conduct of the war in
t he Philippines could be justified under
this treaty, and especially whether, if
it had been in forve at the time, the
method of Aguinaldo's capture could
have been justified. lie quoted the
provision relating to spies, and said he.
would like to be informed if under
it the course pursued by Gen. Funston
in the capture of Aguinaldo would be
justifiable. As the treaty relates only
to the conduct of future wars, any in
quiry as to what had happened in the
Philippines was impertinent, says the.
Indianapolis Journal. The only ob
ject. of the inquiry was to east odium
on the American troops and incident
ally to hold up Aguinaldo as a martyr.
The American people are familiar with
Gen. Funston's brilliant exploit, and
the whole civilized world has justified
it as a fair act of war and as one of
the most skillfully planned and daring
ly executed military enterprises on
record. Gen. Funston's scheme was
not that of a spy, but was "a ruse of
war," which the treaty distinctly says
is allowable. He was not seeking to
obtain information in an enemy's lines
with the intention of communicating
it to the hostile party. He was after
the chief of (lie insurgents, and by tak
ing his life in his hand and by the exer
cise of wonderful skill and daring he
got him. That Senator Teller should
'.ro out of his way to drag in a closed
incident for the purpose, as he hoped,
of casting odium on Gen. Funston
shows the malignant animus of thoso
who are trying to make a political is
sue out of the Philippine question.

Capo Town, March 27. —Cecil Rhodes
is dead. Mr. Rhodes was conscious
until 5:55 p. in.yesterday, when he
muttered a few words and sank
quickly. The immediate cause of his
death was two successive attacks of
heart failure.
At his bedside were Br. Jameson,
Dr. ,T. \V. Smartt, the commissioner of
public works, Col. Elmhurst Rhodes,
director of signalling of the South
African field force, and Mr. Walton, a
member of the assembly of Port Eliz

Mr. Rhodes' Inst words were the
names of his brother and some of the
others present, which were meant to
be good-byes.

was the wish of .Mr. Rhodes to be in
terred at Matoppo Hills, Rhodesia.
Some of his friends will proceed to
Matoppo Hills to determine whether
it is practicable to carry out this
Wish.

Philadelphia, March 27. —'Moses
Schwartz, who is wanted in New
York for alleged forgeries on the
Seventh national bank aggregating
$78,000, was arrested here Wednes
day. Schwartz was arraigned for a
hearing and was held to await requi
sition papers from New York.
R. W. Jones, vice president of the
Seventh national bank of Sew York,
made a statement in which he said
that Schwartz, as manager of the
Manhattan Mercantile Co., 35 South
William street, New York, had an ac
count. with his bank. The Manhattan
Mercantile Co. failed last summer, a
short time previous to the failure of
the Seventh national bank. While he
was a depositor Schwartz, it is al
leged, secured loans amounting to
about $78,000 on worthless notes.
When the fraudulent character of the
notes was discovered, Schwartz had
disappeared, leaving his family in
New York. His wife was subsequent

Manila, March 27.—Noriel, the only
insurgent general with tlie exception
of Malvar, still In the field, has been
captured by Lieut. Frank E. Batn
ford, of the Twenty-eighth infantry.
A major, a captain, a lieutenant and
five men who were acting as a body
guard to Noriel were captured with
him. They have been lieft.l as prison
ers of war. There is reason to be
lieve that one member of this body
guard is Gen. Malvar in disguise.
Lieut, baniford is certain that if this
general is not one of the captured
party, he is in the immediate neigh
borhood of the scene of Noriel's cap

Noriel has been one of the recog

1599. He was captured on his way to
the coast, while endeavoring to
escape. He admits that the insurrec
tion, as such, is over and says that
the few remaining leaders are fleeing.

PATRICK IS GUILTY
Convicted of tho Murder of the
Aged Millionaire.
The Jury Wnn Out Three llourn—Not

Moved a* the Foreman of
the Jury Announced
the Verdict. v
New York, March 27. —Albert T.
Patrick, lawyer, was last evening con
victed of tne murder on September
23, 1900, of the nged millionaire re
cluse, William Marsh Rice.
The penalty under the statute is
death in the electric chair.
A scant three hours of deliberation
at the close of a trial prolonged for
nine weeks and replete with sensa
tional interest sufficed to enable the
jury to reach their verdict. The issue
of the trial establishes the charge
that Patrick conspired with Mr.
Rice's valet, Charles F. Jones, to ob
tain possession of the aged Texan's
estate, estimated at $7,000,000, and
that Jones killed his employer by the
administration of chloroform at the
direct instigation of Patrick.
At the close of Recorder GofT's
charge, which occupied the morning
session of the court, the jury retired.
This was at 1:50 p. m. At 5:55 p. m.
they notified the officer in charge
that they were ready to return to
court, rather more than an hour of
the intervening time having been de
voted to luncheon.
In anticipation of a scene of ex
citement in the event of a verdict of
guilty, the unusual step was taken
of ordering all women to leave the
court room. Among them were the
prisoner's two sisters and Mrs. Fran
cis, with whom he boarded.
The members of the jury filed into
their places, and some minutes of
painful tension elapsed while messen
gers were endeavoring to find the
counsel, who had departed, not ex
pecting a verdict for many hours.
Calm as ever and with confidence
seemingly unshaken, the prisoner was
escorted into the court room, lie
walk 1 rapidly and took his stand
facii. ■ the jury with head erect and
hands loosely clasped behind his back.
At the word "guilty" pronounced
by Foreman Machell in a tone low
but distinct enough to be heard
throughout the court, not the slight
est change passed over Patrick's
face and he remained standing in an
almost listless attitude while the cus
tomary poll of the jury was being
taken. His aged father, (apt. Pat
rick, sitting near him, and straining
to catch the statement of the fore
man, started for an instant as its im
port reached him and then sat calmly
awaiting the further proceedings.
A smile of triumph lit up the face
of Assistant District Attorney Os
borne, who hastened from the court
immediately after Recorder (loff had,
at the request of the prisoner's
counsel, fixed on a week from Mon
day as the day on which to pronounce
sentence.
The verdict was known almost im
mediately in the corridor where the
women relatives arid friends of the
prisoner were waiting, and a scene of
excitement ensued.
Patrick, after taking leave of his
father, was led back to the Tombs.
A motion will be made for a new
trial when the prisoner is arraigned
for sentence.
The cases of David L. Short and
Morris Meyers, the witnesses to Pat
rick's will, who testified for him ar,
the preliminary hearing before Jus
tice Jerome and were indicted for
perjury as a result of their testi
mony, will probably be moved for
trial in about ten days.
What disposition will be made of
Charles F. Jones, the former valet
secretary of Millionaire Rice, who
confessed on the stand tnat he placed
a chloroformed sponge in a cone over
his sleeping employer's face, no one
connected with the district attorney s
office would say. Jones is not under
indictment for murder, and so far as
is known is not under indictment for
forgery or conspiracy.
WAIT FOR RESULTS.

Chicago, March 27. —Unless there
shall be a change in the present plan
of the government, 110 more suits for
injunction will be tiled against the
railroads until Judges Philips and
Grosscup shall pass upon tne legiti
ity of the restraining orders now in
force. The joint hearing probably
will take place here June 23. Attor
ney VY. A. Day, special counsel for
the government, left for Washington
last night to confer with the depart

actions.
If the head of the department shall
take the same view as Attorney Day,
no more expense will be incurred in
bringing suits, unless the courts shall
decide in favor of the injunction
method. In the event of a favorable
decision, bills will be filed as rapidly
as they ean be prepared in St. Louis,
St. Paul anil New York, and others
will be tiled In Chicago.
The decision to delay other cases
surprised the attorneys for the rail
roads and placed, in their judgment,
a new phase upon the matter. Al
though no assurances were given
them that such would be the case, it,
was generally understood that all the
roads would he brought in as fast, as
bills could be prepared.

Though the Grand Trunk Railway system
carried over 30,000 tourists and sportsmen
into one district of Canada's summer play
grounds last year, the Company is starting
out this year with a vigorous policy of ad
vertising to still further increase the influx
of pleasure-seekers who annually travel over
this system.
The company has now decided to give the
populace of some of the larger cities in the
statesof Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky
and Pennsylvania an opportunity of seeing
the series of photographic views it had on
exhibition at the Pan-American exposition
at iMiflalo. There will be over 100 pictures
in the collection, each measuring 3 feet 6
inches by 4 feet 2 inches, in addition to one
of the finest collections of mounted fish
that has ever been shown. The fish include
specimens of black bass from the "Highlands
of Ontario," dorc and maskinonge from the
St. Lawrence, land-locked salmon from their
native waters, and other specimens of rare
value. A representative of the Grand Trunk
will accompany the exhibit and the art gal
lery will be installed in the business portion
of the cities visited. Thousands of copies
of literature, describing the several regions
to be advertised, will be distributed. The
exhibit will open at Saginaw, Mich., March
10, and goes from there to Grand Rapids,
thence south to several points in the other
itates.
The tour will occupy ten weeks, two day*
