Dr. David James Burrell, pastor of
the Marble Collegiate Chiifch, New
York, said, iii a sermon ou "The Dig
nity of Labor": "The effect of indo
lence upon a nation finds an apt illus
tration in Spain. No country 011 earth
has a richer soil. They say, 'lf you
tickle it with a hoe it will laugh with
a harvest.' But unfortunately for the
CastilJan race they have a prejudice
against the hoe. They* are given to
bull fighting and fan flirting and love
making. Once there were 12,000 vil
lages along the Guadalquver; now
there are but 800. The land has fallen
into innocuous desuetude.
"The people are a race of beggars
more or less respectable. There is no
greatness in Spain. If the kingdom
were to perish from the earth it would
leave no laws, no literature, nothing
as a legacy to posterity. The pride of
the Spaniards is vast and ludicrous.
Their strength has been bluster for
centuries. Little Holland, with less
than three millions of people, fought
Spain, one generation taking up the
fight where the last had left it, until
Philip 111. begged for an armistice.
They are unable even to subdue Cuba.
Poor, famished Cuba! What a pathet
ic farce is this, that the grandees of
Spain, with their armies, should be suc
cessfully resisted by a few brave isl
anders whose ranks are decimated by
slaughter, famine and plague!
"We, on the contrary, have been de
rided as 'a nation of shopkeepers and
artisans.' Our glory is in the truth
of that imputation. Alas! for us, when
we consent to look on labor with Span
ish eyes! If war must be declared
against Spain—which God forfend—let
us rejoice that a call for volunteers
would be answered as it was when
Lincoln made his historic appeal for
a hundred thousand more, not by
volunteers from the street corners and
the drawing rooms, but from the fields
and the work shops. Here is the source
of our greatness; here is the hope of
our perpetuity. The true American is
neither the alms-taker nor the gentle
man of leisure."
The Real Article.
The towns of Morton and Richmond,
Texas, contain feudal factions, who
style themselves the "Reedbirds" and
thf* "Woodpeckers," the Horton fac
tion being the "Reedbirds," and that
of Uichmond the "Woodpeckers."
in order to demonstrate the brother
ly love that exists between them, they
have formed the most delightful habit
of shooting one another on sight.
Occasionally, when a certain member
of either faction has consumed more
firewater than is absolutely good for
him, he goes to Richmond, or Horton,
as the case may be, on an errand of
destruction, and the chances generally)
are that before the sun sets he is a
fit subject for the Coroner.
Spurville Is the name of the place
that lies just between these two bellig
erent townships, anu is a general head
quarters for the section men of the
Texas and Pacific Railway, who in
Texas are more familiarly known as
"Snipes."
It so happened that one day .Mickey
O'Rourke, one of the section men, waij
Bitting on a barrel of dynamite, com
placently smoking his pipe, utterly un
conscious of his close proximity to thfl
happy hunting grounds, when he wai
surprised by a big, burly fellow, who
swaggered up to him with his vest
open and his hands on the buts of two
very formidable looking guns.
"What are ye?" he demanded, gruf
fly—"A Reedbird or a Woodpecker?"
"Am I phwat?" asked Mickey, not
ing that his interlocutor was unsteady,
on his feet and at the same time slow
ly edging around for his own gun.
"Phwat was it you said?"
"I asked yer if you wuz a Reedbirt}
or a Woodpecker!" shouted the
"And yer want to answer me blamed
quick, too!"
By this time Mickey had reached hia
gun, so he said: —"Shure, Oi'm nather;|
Oi'm only a Shnoipe, but"—and, pull
lug quick, he got the drop 011 his man
—"Oi'm a burrud just the same!"
And the other had to admit that he
was.
