"Address changed as often os desired. The Fall of Manila. The capture of Manila by iho cornto toed naval and land forces of the c United States under Admiral Dewey and General Merritt, after an assault on the entrenchments and fonts manned by an inferior tout strongly entrenched Spanish force, came at a time wflen peace bad been practically decided upon, but tfefore the orders for a suspension of hostilities could possibly have reached the scene. Though the news was not unexpected, the publlo was scarcely prepared to learn of on engagement of such moment. The recital of the courage displayed by the American troops adda to tho glory of American arms, and completes an uninterrupted scries of victories. The details of the assault and capture . are necessarily meagre, out tine story is . related briefly by the correspondent of the London Telegraph-, who pays a Just tribute to the humanity displayed by the American commanders in the preparations for the assault. The result will . have an Important bearing on the Phll: Ipplne question, for It simplifies the title to the possession of the territory which t?he United States Witt demand as one of ths terms of peace. Voluntcm not Called to the Front. There are thousands In the volunteer service who are disappointed in not , having been called upon for active duty j ' at the seats of war, and It Id very hurd for them to acoept the consolation of an assurance that the national gratitude is as much due those in camp as those* who ' were called to the front. In the case I of the soldiers still In camp at Chicka' nmusn and other points, Avhorfo chances ' for distinguishing themselves on the lipid of battle are now to all appearances gone, the President's words to General Breckinridge, that "All have helped In I the great cause, whether In camp or battle, and when peace conies all will j be alike entitled to the gratitude of the j Nation," Is true, for the experiences In camp life have severely tested them, 'aiid the country has observed their anxiety to get to the front and have given J them credit for It. While the lack of opportunity to take part In the hostilities In a disappointment to these brave volunteers, It is for?qnate for the country that they were cot needed?that the war, In fact, was j brought to an end without the necessity XUr UilvniiiH IU i"u tiviih Hivukvi iivuivio of men to endure the hardships and dangera of a tropical climate In tho wdrat ?wwon of tho year, and without Adding to the list of dead, wounded and lok among the flower of American manhood, an represented In the volunteer a* well a? In the regular army. Referring to thin eubject, the ffbw Tork Preea In of tho opinion that, while the?e. aoldlern havo not been needed, anil Ihey are entitled to the gratitude of the country for their prompt renponxo V " ' to the President's call. It Is doubtful It the lyetem "under which go many men have been withdrawn from civil life' without being Introduced Into ' active military life, It to be felled upon. It 1? scarcely possible that so many, recrulta would again flock to the colon, now that all tile martial spirits of the country know the loog and tedious process to which modern fighting blood has to be submitted." No depredation of the patriotism of the men who volunteered Is intended In this! but we must assume, In order to accept it without depreciating the ardency of the patriotism of the men, that they would have to know that tney would not be needed. When'he volunteered in response to the President's call each man supposed, naturally, that his regiment would, after it* efficiency was proven, be sent to the front; he could not foresee that the war would be so short, or that & contest between Spain and the United 8tates would be settled with so little land fighting. Nor under war pondltlona again could any one be gifted with such foresight We believe that in any war with a foreign power the response would be Just as prompt as in this one. The patriotism of America doesn't watt to ascertain wneuer ine wur win uc lung ur miuu before volunteering. The disappointments under the present circumstances would hardly have the effect of making It hard for the government to obtain a ready response for troops at any time In the future. The Press, In Its article, however, makes the strong point that wearisome calls upon the youth of the country, "lnvolvinga tremendous derangement of private affairs of thousands of men, and lavish expenditures, among officers especially, of valuable private time, should be avoided as much as possible.' i n is merely lor ine preservation 01 me volunteer spirit, for the volunteers should toe a real reserve, and not an Inactive part of an active army." In this connection It is reported that some of the officers of the First West West Virginia regiment will resign, now that It is assured'the regiment will not be called into active service for fighting purposes. The officers, it is stated, will do so because of the private business nt home which needs their attention. The point made by the Press la thus made good as to one of our own regiments. Doubtless the department will exempt the jnen in the various camps who will not "be needed tor service arter peace is formally declared from further restraint The suggestion is made that the volunteer spirit might be weakened by the assignment of these men to gar-, rison duty In our new possessions and dependencies, and to take advantage of the two year clause. This suggestion is made in support of the proposition of recruiting the regular army to a larger force, to fce held bo long as necessary, and until all questions growing out of the war are settled, and thus avoid, as the Press remarks, "a continued draft on the patriotism of the volunteers for camp duty at home or abroad." Gnu Shatter Nails a Lie. The letter received from General Shatter by Secretary of War Alger, relieving the latter from responsibility for anything done by him, should silence the critics who have been making- the secretary a target for abuse for alleged "hampering of Shatter's operations by orders from Washington." Shatter makes a simple statement, which gives the falsehood to many publications that have been, mode, toy saying:4 "I am very sorry to see that some newspapers are attempting to throw blame on your trying to run the campaign from Washington, and I suppose some people believe It It Is one of the things, however, that I don't suppose we can help, although whenever I have had an opportunity I have tried to make It plain that I have been left to my own devices." General Shatter is right in supposing that a great many people believed the false statements made by certain papers, for the falsehoods were reiterated over and over again. General Shatter's as numptlon of all respinwirbilltles for (he campaign at Santiago ought to be enough to convince anybody that the yellow sheet's publications were made of whole cloth. Rare Modesty. It was rare modesty on the part of the esteemed Register to precede the great feature of the news. In yesterday's Issue, announcing the fall of Manila and departure of the captain general of the Spanish army and governor of the Philippines, with Its able editorial comment8 abusive of President McKlnley and a warning to "Beware of the (Alaska) Gold Craze!" The com paratlve Importance or these two features warranted our neighbor In heralding one of the greatest events of the war at the bottom of Its editorial page, as a sort of appendix to the usual daily criticism of the man In the whlto house, who Is charged with the grave.it responslbllltlets that have been Imposed upon any President since Abraham Lincoln, and whom the Register doesn't teem to admire as much as the country In general admires him. The modesty of the discrimination was doubtless appreciated by our friend's admiring readers? those of them who, after diligent search, succeeded In* finding the Manila news. It Meant x Big Success. The sub-committees appointed by the River Improvement Convention executive committee are composed of material which Insures that every arrange mcni win ue earned nui wun a view to making the convention one of the most successful Important gatherings ever held In Wheeling, Every member of the committees la a representative citizen, and systematic work will be the result. Thu Indications are that the convention will be largely attended and the (rood thai will come out of It will warrant the trouble and expense thnt Wheeling ?rolnK to many limes over. No points between lMttffburgh and tho mouth of the Ohio river will re.ip greater advantage, proportionately, from the important movement which In being promoted thun tho city of Wheeling nnd her sister communities In this portion of tho valley, and the cnthusl I aam of .the turtbea* men In the matter of entertaining the convention win bear fruit. There 1# much work to toe done between now and the meeting of the aModatlon, and it will toe done well. Along with the announcement from Madrid tbat Blanco has resigned aa governor general of Cuba, because he doesn't desire to-command In the evacuation of the Spanish army, la the one that Captain General August! la no longer In command in the Philippine*, having been supplemented by General Jaubemes. It aeema that these two Spanish commanders have laid up reckonings for themselves. Bunco Is humiliated and Augustl seems to be in the position or a scapb-guax, wnn-u is i?kw cary to satiety Spanish honor. General Shatter significantly remarks that the silver question in Santiago has settled Itself. American silver 1b received the same as American paper. This was the logical settlement. The people of Santiago were quick to learn that the American silver dollar under our system of finance Is worth one hundred cents. Fortunately, the country did not vote for the other kind of a silver dollar. Colonel Roosevelt Is noted for his use of elegant English and his polished manners, hut he also knows how to use lamruasre anDroorlately and expressive ly when he remarks to & reporter thalt be and ills rough riders had "a bully time all the way through," and that his regiment was one of the "crack-aJacks." And so it Is "a crack-a-iack," deserving all the applause It has received from the country over. rOIWIBP FtBAGBAPM. A man says "I shall" and a woman saps "I will." It takes at least sixteen summers to make one summer girl. Some people see without looking and others look without seeing. A woman's failure to Interest a man often causes her to hate him. The bonds of friendship couia not oe more popular than Uncle Sam's. The only sure thing about a game of chance Is the chance you have to lose. Some politicians are like corkscrews? rather crooked, but they have a strong pull. There will be no peace for the editor until the poets forget to remember the Maine. Men, like lamps, often smoke, sometimes go out nights and frequently get turned down. But very few men would strive to achieve fame if K wasn't for the sake of pleasing some woman. A man never fully realizes the hardness of this unsympathetic world until he tries to ride a blcyclc. Sometimes a girl's face Is her fortune find sometimes It la represented by the j llgure on the face of her father's check. "In time of peace prepare for war" must have been the motto of the Iowa minister,'who was simultaneously engaged to seventeen girls.?Chicago Daily News. Cnpt. Phlllp'a Religion. New York World: The Rev. Kerr Boyce Tupper, pastor of the F^rst Baptist church, Philadelphia, spoke at the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Association, No. D02 Fulton street, Brooklyn, yesterday, on the subject of "Manliness." He cited, as illustrating this quality In the highest degree, Captain | J. W. Phillip, of the battleship Texas, who In this city four years ago confess! ed that he lacked salvation, and soon afterward united with a cAurch. Said I Mr. fiinnm*! "The truest roan, perhaps, In all America la one who has been , doing some heroic battling at therfront In Santiago. Four years ago I preached a sermon In this city on 'Ye Must Be Born Again.' Just In front of me sat a finelooking gentleman. I was much struck by lils manly appearance. At the close of the service he came to me and, taking my hand, said: " 'I believe I have everything In the world except the new birth. I have a lovely wife, a high position In the United States navy, worldly comforts In plenty, but I feel that I lack salvation.' "We talked together, and the vcry I next Sunday that man In one of the Brooklyn churches declared hla belief In tho Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour and united with the congregation. The following morning, before his ship started for Boston, he called his men before him and said: " 'Since you last saw me I have given myself to Christ. Hereafter, every morninir. tva will bow before the throna of the King of Kings and dedicate our- , selves to His service.* "And not a single day has elapsed ' since 1895 that Captain Phillip has not got his men together for dlvlno praise." 1 ( 'am*.
