Ijke all iU predecessors. Memorial Day of lyoS sees a rapidly diminishing number of the veterans of the great war ass rering its roll-call. On the roster of tbe Grand Amry iftheRepnbhe there are to-day about 223,000 ns and these base recently been shrinking at the rate of from 5,COO to tt.OOO a year. The deaths annually among tbe surrivorsof the big sonliict, however, are far greater than the highest of these fig ures. Only a small portion of the survivors belong to that organization, and it receives accessions to its membership every vear, though these do not ofist-t the deaths within its ranks. On May 1st, 1!>65, three weeks after Lee’s sarreudnr to Grant, and five days after Sherman received the capitulation of Johnston’s veterans, the number of soldiers present iu all the armies of tbe Union was 798,000. while 202,000 were absent, being sick, on furlough, or otherwise oil duty. That 789,000 represented the greatest number of troops on doty at any one time during tbe four years of war. Tbe number of Confederate who were in active servic the time of the general collapse, or any time during the war, is not* definitely known .X The fact that there was hard fighting on loth sides in the Civil War is shown shown by the 95,000 who were killed in battle or who died of wounds received. These are the deaths on tbeUoionaide Those among tbe Confederates are not known.sbut, in proportion to numb -rs acually engaged, they moat have been at least as great as those on tbe Northern mde. Some of tbe most intrepid fighters whom tbe world has seen in any war were arrayed on the southren aide in the great war. Cunonsly enongb among the officers of high rank in tbe Civil War, more Conlederales Nationals are alive to-day. Tbe s vmg Union soldiers who reached tbe rank of major-general are O U. Howard Nelson A. Miles. Daniel E. sickles, Grenville M. Dodge' Wesley Merrit. James H. Wilson, lienjamin H. Grierson, Julius S abl, snd Peter J. Osterbaus The living Coufeilerates who attained that grade are Simon it. Hurkner, Samuel G. French. Alexander P. Stewart, Stephen D I.ee. W. T. Martin, Robert F. Hoke, Camillua J. Polignac, Matthev C. Butler, G orge \V. Cnstis Lee, L. L Lou and Thomas L. Rosser. Thus the viving officers of the Civil War of the rank of major-general cuinpriae nine Nationals and eleven Co federates. This is a surprising showing for the

Under old conditions, when the erection of a dam was the wbola apparatus of power development, the man who owned the dam site was considered by that possession :o own the power In tbe water during the time It was passing his land.

Horning Brush The Bute Forest Commission calls a'.'.cntion to the fact that permits bum brush, waste, etc., arc required only in township, or othermuniclpali lies in which tire-wardens have ocen appointed. Furllier, that even in such townships permits are not now necessary when the fire is in a public road, a garden, or a plowed field, and is more than 290 feet away trom any woodland, brush land,or field containing dry grass or otner inflammable material. In all other cases permits must be obtained from the firewarden at all times of the year (not only from March 10 to May 31, as formerly).

His action has precipitated a discussion In the foreign offices of the world of the open-door question In China According to the treaty of Portsmouth, both Russia and Japan agreed to evacuate Manchuria, leaving the province to Chinese. Tbe American consul is credited to China, and refuses to 1 ognlze any other governmental authority. The Russians have not withdrawn, neither have tbe Japanese, and a new government for Harbin lately arranged In such a way at give to Russia the control. But the American consul, acting under strnctlons from home. Insists that Russia has no more right than America or France or Germany to name Tnunidpal officers In Harbin. It la evident that the government In Washington expects both Japan and Rnaaia to keep their word given at Portsmouth. If Its expectation la expressed with sufficient emphasis, it Is likely that the rights of China will be considerably advanced and the friendship between the Chinese and the Americana more (Irmly cemented.

state universities, at the request of their professor*, are to benefit by the Carnegie pension fund. Ten million dollar* were originally given aa an endowment for i>ens!ons for professor* In unsectarian college*. Colleges supported by churches and by tbe ■tales were omitted, on tbe ground that if pensions were to be provided, they might well come from those who maintain the institutions. Many college*. nominally denominational, have given evidence that they are unsectarian, and have been admitted to tbe benefits of tbe fund, and tbe National Association of State Universities petitioned for the enjoyment of the penprovisions. It set forth four reasons, the chief of which were that the absence of [tension allowances i state universities would find It difficult to compete with the other colleges for first-class professors, and that the prospect of pensions paid by the states was remote, as It would Involve the acceptance of the policy of pensioning state officers. Mr. Care negle has admitted the force of their argument by adding 15.000.000 to the original fund, ao that tbe state Institutions may benefit. But proressora In such universities will not be pensioned unless the state legislature and the governor Join In the application that they be admitted to the foundation.

Mr. Asquith, the new British premier, waa a lucky "find" by Mr. Gladstone. He entered parliament In 1886. A single speech, which proved his power as a debater, led Mr. Glads, In 1892, to offer him the Important post of home secretary, with a seat in the cabinet, although he had not prevlonsly held any office. He remained at the home office until the Rosebery government was defeated In 1895; waa In the opposition ten years, and has been chancellor of the exile r since December, 1905. He has therefore served hot five years and three months In all as an officer of the crown. To have attained the chief place In the government by two steps, and In ao short a time, la almost unprecedented.

The Paterson Evening News Says: “ The Prudential reports a great increase in business. It deserves it. It sells insurance at a profit and the insurer gets his protection at a fixed price. The Prudential pays its dividends in the shape of reduced premiums. The man who insures on this common-sense plan keeps the dividends in his pocket. He knows just how much a thousand dollars insurance costs him. There is no guesswork and no disappointments. The Prudential way is the common-sense business way to insure.”
