He said he was used to riding only thoroughbreds, and he didn't think we had a horse good enough for him. The boys con vinced him; that they bad .one of the finest horses on the plains, and if he knew how to ride be was welcome to the animal. . He was apparently In sulted when questioned about bis abil ity to ride and answered that be could ride any kind of a horse.

On one occasion during the cItII war I dreamed that I was standing beside a road when there came marching along It a strong column of prisoners, with guards at Intervals on the flanks. I asked one t)f these guards who the prisoners were and where they bad been captured. He informed me that they had been taken in an engagement with the enemy on the day before and that there were 1,000 of them. I then asked some bystander what day of the month it was and was told it was such a day of a certain month, some six weeks later than the date of the dream. The whole dream was extremely dis tinct, and it made a strong Impression on me. I related it to a number .of my comrades within the "next few days and then thought of it no more. Six weeks later, on the morning of the very day that bad been mentioned in the dream as the date when the col umn of prisoners had passed before me, I was on picket two miles distant from, the point where . I bad seemed to be when I saw them. It was soon after breakfast, and I was standing by the side of the road at the fire talk ing to the officer of the picket when an aid to the commanding general came riding down the road. He had been a schoolfellow of our officer's at West Point, and he reined up when he recog nized his friend. He told ns that he had good news; that there had been a sharp engagement with the enemy the day before and that our people had captured 1,900 prisoners, who bad just passed the headquarters that morning on their "way to the rear.

The Election and the Things Thst It Set tied Unquestioned Endorsement of the fold Stafldard-Americsa Sovereignty la Philippines. B j Teteerapn to the H ornlnc Star. Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 24. Pres ident McKinley was to-night the guest of honor at the "Founders Day" ban quet of the Union League, one of the oldest and most influential Republican organizations in the country. In addi tion to Mr. McKinley, there were present Theodore Roosevelt, vice pres ident elect; the members of .the cabi net, with the exception of Secretary Root, who is in Cuba, and Senators Lodge and Wolcott Raw, .cloudy weather greeted the President upon his arrival, but these inclement conditions did not dampen the ardor of a patriotic public, which -turned out in force to greet the re elected chief executive. President McKinley's reception was most enthusiastic and much import ance was attached to his address, as it was his first public utterance since his recent victory. The Presi dent's time was fully occupied from his arrival until late to-night After driving through several of the princi pal streets of the city he was enter tained at the residence of E. T. Stotes bury, a prominent financier of this city. Following this Mr. McKinley was escorted to the Union League where he held an informal reception and sat at the banquetting board. At the conclusion of the dinner, the President held a reception, when the members of the Union League indi vidually paid their respects to him. At mid night the President returned to Washington. Numerous speeches were made du ring the evening and those second in point of importance to that of the President were delivered by Oovernor Roosevelt and Senators Lodge and Wolcott Mr. McKinley said, in part: "We cannot over estimate the great importance and the far-reaching con sequences of the electoral contest which ended on the 6th of November. It has to me no personal phases. It is not the triumph of an individual, nor alto gether of a party, but an emphatic declaration of the people of what they believe and would have maintained in government' A great variety of sub jects was presented and discussed in the progress of the campaign. "We may, differ as to the extent of the influence of the' several issues in volved, but we are all agreed as to cer tain things which it settled. "It records the unquestioned en dorsement of the gold standard, indus trial independence, broader markets, commercial expansion, reciprocal trade, the open-door in China, the in violability of public faith, the indepen dence and authority of the judiciary, and peace and beneficent government under American sovereignty in the Philippines. ' American credit remains unimpaired, the American name unim paired, the honor of American arms unsullied, and the obligations of a righteous war and treaty of peace un repudiated. "The Republican party has placed upon it tremendous responsibilites. No party could ask for a higher ex pression of confidence. It is a great thing to have this confidence; it will be a greater thing to deserve and hold tt To this party are committed new and1 grave problems. They are two exalted for partisanship. The task of settlement is for the whole American people. Who will say they are un equal to it? . . "Liberty has not lost but gained in strength. The structure of the fathers stands secure upon the foundations on which they raised it, and is to day, as it has "been in the years past and as it will be in the years to come, the gov ernment of the people, by the people, and for the people. Be not dis turbed, there is no dahger front em pire, there is no fear for the republic." :,;r Roosevelt's Speech. Oovernor Rospevelt followed Presi dent McKinley, - He said in part: . "There is no doubt about ourposi tion before the electionand there is no doubt about it now. We are going ing to carry on the policy that has been pursued during the past four years.: It has been the signal good fortune of this nation, on the first ac casion when it mixed in the .world's politics, to fix the standard to which the other nations of the v world will come in dealing with the . affairs of the great Asiatic nation. : We have - kept the currency sound. We have kept the gold standard for the past four years, and it will be kept in the coming years. And the nation has decided that the flag shall float rover the Philippine . islands.

Jones, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, spent the day in Little Rock and left to-night for Washing ton. Before leaving he said ;n an in- The election result was a great sur prise to all Democrats." All were so confident of success that the sweeping Republican victory came as a severe shock. Even on the evening of the day before election reassuring tele grams came from leaders that New York was safe for Bryan and from leaders in other pivotal States that the Democrats were sure to win. It was these forecasts that buoyed us, up to the last moment and made the actual result more atartltoa:;-H:' "But Mr. Bryan is a great man, one of the greatest in America to day, and his influence will be felt for many years to come in American politics. He is a giant in intellect and simply indefatigable in the prosecution of a campaign. Whether he .will be a cannidate for the presidency in the near future remains to Jbe seen, but it is not probable that he will. It is more reasonable to presume that he would decline the nomination " even should it be tendered him: "Re-organization t Obthat's all non sense. There's nothing in it and . it will all blow over in thirty days. It is precipitated by those who- deserted the party and gave aid and comfort to the enemy and does not represent the strength or the spirit of 'the genuine Democracy. What they would do, is to adopt all the policies of the Repub lican party and be Democrats only in name. But, granting that there is cause or strength for so-called re-organization, who has the. power within the party to do it now? Not theMis gruntled disorganizers who have raised the issue. If there is to be a re organization of national committee or platform it cannot be done for four years or until the next national con vention. "As to the issues these must depend largely upon the national and interna tional developments the next four years, it may be laid down primar ily, however, that the Democratic party will never vary from its estab lished fundamentals, a strict construe-' tion of the constitution and an un swerving adherence to its principles and an economically administered government for the, benefit of the governed. The silver question mSy solve itself. "Should the amount of gold pro duced be ample to maintain a suffi cient volume, of metallic money and insure the stability of prices, the silver question will be subordinated, but should the supply fall short of the de mands of trade, the silver question will be made prominent The ques tion of imperialism may , also find a solution outside the ballot box. I be lieve the Supreme Court will decide against the Porto . Rican , law, and should this be done, there will be a revulsion on the part of the Republi cans themselves against the retention of the Philippines. But just what the issues of 1904 will be no one can pre dict with any degree of certainty." FRANCISCAN SISTERS Will Devote Their Fntnre Ures to Minis terlnf to Lepers in Hawaii Islands.
