BROWNELL, "The measure now proposed is most appropriate and just but hardly is it mentioned in contemplation of the great calamity to which it appertains. It will be merely an incidental, legislative footnote to a page of history that will be open to the eyes of the Republic and of the world for all time to come. No human speech can add anything to the silent gratitude, the speechless reverence already by a great and grateful nation to its dead defenders end to their living kin. No >:t of Congress providing for their needs can make a restitution for their sacrifice. Human nature does, in human ways, its best, and still feels deep in debt. Expressions ot condolence have come from every country and from every clime, and every nerve of steel and ocean cable has carried ou electric breath the sweetest, tenderest words of sympathy for that gallant crew who manned the Maine, But no human recompense can reach them. Humanity and time remain their everlasting debtors. It was a brave and strong and splendid crew. They were a part of the blood and bone and sinew of our land. Two were from my native State of Iowa. Some were only recently at the naval acedemy, where they had so often heard the morning and the evening salutation to the llag-that flag which had been interwoven with the dearest memories of their lives and which had colored all tlieir friendships with the lasting blue of true fidility. But whether they came from naval school or civil life, from one State or from another, they called each other comrade—that gem of human language which sometimes means a little less than love and a little more than fiiendship—that gentle salutation of the human heart that speaks in all the languages of man, that winds, and turns, and runs through all the joys and sorrows of the human race—through deed, and thought, and dream; through song, and toil, and battlefield. '"No foe had ever challenged them. The world can never know how brave they were. They never knew defeat; they never shall. While at their posts of duty, sleep lured them into the abyss, then death unlocked their slumbering eyes for but an instant, to behold its dreadful carnival. To most of them the summons came just when life was full of hope and all its tides were at their highest, grandest flow—just when the early sunbeams were falling on the steeps of fame and flooding all life's landscape, far out into the dreamy, distant hori/.on—just when all the nymphs were makiug diadems and garlands, weaving laurel wreaths before the eyes of young and eager nature —just then, when death seemed most unnatural."Hovering above the dark waters of that mysterious harbor of Havana the black-winged vulture watched for the belated dead—while over it and over all there is the eagle's piercing eye, sternly watching for the truth. Whether the appropriation carried by this resolution shall be ultimately charged to fate or to some foe shall soon appear. Meanwhile, a patient and a patriotic people, enlightened by the lessons of our history, remembering the woes of war, both to the vanquished and victorious, are ready for the trnth and for their duty. The tumult anil the shouting dies— The Captain and the Kings depart— Htill stands the ancient sacrifice, All humble and a contrite heart, l.ord (ft id of Hosts be with us yet, Lest wo forget—lest we forget." ' Advertised Letters. Rev. Zetier delivered a forcible sermon Sunday evening on the Cuban question in the Methodist church, A collection was taken up for the benefit of the Cubans, the congregation contributing liberally. It is reported that two watches and some money were stolen from the house of William it. Simpson Saturday morning by a man whom they had sheltered over night and given breakfast to in the morning. The Congregational church has taken the matter in hand to seek aid in this town for the benetit of the Cuban sufferers. Thev hope that other churches of this place will respond and work in conjunction with each other. The Hood did considerable damage in Sportsburg last week. It broke away two of the swinging bridges that spanned the river—one between Horatio and l.indsey and the other between here and No. 4 mine, which makes travel to the above places tedious. Rev. James, of DuBois, spent Saturday and Sunday with his parents here. Nos. 4, ft and 'I mines have been drowned out to some extent, which causes the men to be crowded together in their work. Mrs. William (Iritliths, of Pittsburg, is visiting her friends here this week. She is the guest of Philip Philips and family. Some of our sports, who are in favor of Cuba's freedom, say they will enlist at any time. That's the kind of men we want. Messrs. J. M. Lloyd, of Cleveland, Ohio, Thomas Lloyd, of Lindsey, and William Wilkins, of DuBois, visited T. Y. Kvans and family Sunday. PUNXSUTAWNKY, Opp. Public Sviuakk. Following is a lilt of letters remaining unclaimed in the Pnnisutawney, Pa., poet-office for the week ending March 26, 1898. J. A. Gordon, John Hayman, John C. Johnson, A. C. Martin, Mrs. Agnes Roxby, Miss Qertrade Bubmonitz, Chss. Bistick, Mrs. Elisabeth Smith. Foreign : Mike Mucin, Maris Pogdak, Michael Toscean. ■■ Chas. A. Juris, p at. |N. Y. Hun.l Lieutanant-Commander Moses E. Stuyvesant served during the civil war on the Weehawken and on the Miantouomoh, and he was one of the officers who had an opportunity to observe the seagoing qualities of the latter vessel when she crossed the Atlantic in 1867. Pie is naturally an advocate of the old-fashioned monitor as against the modern battleship. In a paper read at St. Louis before the Military Order of the Loyal Legion this gallant retired officer sets forth with uncommon spirits his ideas about the vulnerability of ships of the class of the Iowa and his superior faith in the old Ericsson type. He asks: "What is the matter with the monitor, that those who design our snips and who do not go to sea in them must have battleships ? The two-terreted monitor is a fighting ship pure and simple, stripped to the waist, ana has no solar plexus. She does not require a man of cast steel to get out of her all she is capable of. Her main deck is only 12 to 16 inches above water, presenting an armored target that high, and about 270 feet long. On top of this are two low turreta, containing each two hiavy rifles. On top of them is a light superstructure, in which are a few light guns for repelling boarders, torpedos, &c. With equal guns she can whip any battleship afloat." In the Johnston Block, you will find it costs no more for the best work than for any other kind. Johnston Block. PUNXSUTAWNEY. PA. BROOKVIIiLE. - >
