By the end of this week it is expected the 125.000 called for will be enlisted. "Just as I Am," was the closing hymn sung at the funeral of Ensign Bagley yesterday. It was appropriate. The man who dies at his post in war or in peace may safely trust .his case to the great Judge who is always just. There is no special pleading needed. No explanation of shortcomings is re quired. No witnesses need be called. The one plea of the soul as it rejoins its maker is enough Just as I Am." General Lew Wallace has made an engagement with the Harpers as war correspondent for their publications. He will probably go to Cuba with the invading army. His letters will have a literary quality that will give them special value. There is fitness in his connection with the Harpers. The requirements of the great dailies in the war field would be be yond his physical capacity and contrary to his training. Coo'CU. should promptly vote down the ordinance introduced by Mr. Kennepohl last night to take his part of the seventh ward out of the jurisdiction of the Moore law. Such an ordinance would be practically class legislation as it is intended for Mr. Kennepohl's benefit alone. But the most serious objection to it is that its intention is to contravene the rights and wishes of a majority of the citizens of the seventh ward wno plainly ex pressed by petition that they do njt ynat intoxicating liquor retailed in

that war J. la accordance with that

petition the ward was declared a residence district, and under a state law the retail pale of intoxicant is pro hibited in it. Whenever the majorit j of the people of that ward want to change the situation they can and will. doubt, express the wish by peti tion. Until they do that it wouia oe anrepablican and undemocratic to change it by a roundabout way such as is proposed in Mr. Kennepohl's ordinance. STATISTICS Of the Sunday Tha Numbir Schoo s of the City of Schools, Teaohera and Pupils. The annual Sunday school enumera tion has just taken place, and it has been determined just how many schools, teachers and pupils there are in the city of Richmond. The bulk of the statistics will be criven at the county Sunday school convention, in the near future, but the following tierures are the main ones, and are of public interest: Number of Protestant Sunday schools in the city, 26.

Squire Baldridgc promised solemnly and positively and gave his hand on it that if he was alive and well he would come to Sunday school last Sunday. But he fa iled to come, so he is either sick or dead. Arthur Hunter, one of our beM young men, joined the M. E. church last Sunday. Remarkable Rescue Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, 111., makes the statement that she caught cold, which sett'ed on her lungs; she was treated for a month by her family phybician, but grew worse. tie told her the was a hopeless victim of consumption And that no medicine could cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr. King's Mew Discovery lor Consun.pt ion; she bought a bottle and to her delight found herself benefited from first dose, She continued its use and after taking six bottles found herself sound and well, now does her own housework and is as well as she ever was.

A startling incident of which Mr. John Oliver, of Poila Jelnhia, was the subject, is narrated by hire as follows: "I was in a most dreadful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain contin ually in back and sides, no appetite gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Fortunately, a friend advised trying "Electric Bitters," and to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed the grave of another victim. No one should fail to try them. Only 50 cents per bottle at A. G. Luken's drug store. 6 Margaret Smith Home.

We would therefore respectfully request and urge up n council to intercede in behalf of the citizens of the south end of the city, and endeavor to prevail upon tat board of park commissioners to devote to the South Tenth Street park a just proportion of the special park funds. and to construct this spring the necessary and proper walks through and in said South Tenth Street park.

City Engineer Weber presented a statement of the dealine of the city with the Light, Heat & Power Co.

He has made an examination and finds the city is pay ing out a large sum of money for which she receives no return ; in other words the light company has been charging for lamps that are never lighted. Sime lamps are duplicated on the list, being paid for twice. According to the detailed statement of Mr. Weber the company has 69 gas lamps on its list, while there are but 62 that should be paid for. He shows that the city has paid $342 43 unjustly, and recommends that the amount be deducted from the next light bdl, and that the company be requested to render correct bills in the future. The communication was referred to the committee on light. Dr. Davis presented statistics showing the present condition of the city garbage, and recommending against contract work.

e. at all Drcur Eterea, NOW A SOLDIER, Ed. Anderson, Formarlv of This City Going to tha Front. Ed. Anderson, formerly of this city and known to a great many young men here, was formerly the captain of the Richmond Light Guards. After he went to Chicago he continued his study of military tactics and joined the Illinois militia. He reached th rank of captain, was assigned the com mand of a company in the militia of that state at the opening of the pres it war. and is now on his way to the front to fight the Spaniards. So Richmond will be at least indirectly represented in the war. A COINCIDENCE. Two Bays Who llad Been Life Locg Cbums Take the Same Notion at the Same Time. Two boj'8 who are known to many of the young men in Kiehmontl are Ernest L. Commons and Flavius Unr yey. Tfceir homes wete in Centerville and vicinity, and they were lit'e-loDg friends and companions. The two boys were about as chummy as two boys can be, and both were exemplary youcg men. That they had been chums, indeed, is proven by an acci d mt that occurred some weeks ago Tbe two youDg mtn were separated at tbe time, and bad no means of know ing each other's mind on the matter in point One was at his home beyond Centerville, and the other was in thi city. Each took a sudden no'ion to go to war. 1 oung Commons bearded the train in this city on a certain morning, hen the train arrived at Centreville the other of the pair of chums, Mr Harvey, got on the same train. hasty comparison of notes revealed the fact that each had determined to join the army of Uncle Sam. That they taikpouslTtss of their taking the noti ana Dy meir starting on tne same tram. The two boys now belong to the same company, and it is under stood they are tent and mess mates. COMIC ONLY IN DRESS. to of Display Diagaisea the Cuban Vol onteers' Krai Patriotism. I recently visited the headquarters of tbe Cuban regiment of volunteers at west Tampa, writes a Boston Trau script correspondent. At the door of t lare frame buildiug iu the midst of t wilderness of tiuy cottages, all inhabit i d by Cubans, a black eeutiuel iu white anvas uniform marched up aud down. He carried a gun on bis shoulder, but challenged uo one. It was tbe only gun that I Haw anywhere about tbe estab lishment. Iuside a dark bearded gentle man sat at a table and conversed with all comers. He appeared to be the com mander of the expedition. Many men, including some apparently very young, swaruiea in tne ouiiaiug. uue iu a white uniform, with his Lroad hat turned np in front aud piuued there with the Cuban shield, marched up aud dowu wearing a blue aud white silk sash ou which, in large gilt letters, were tha words, "Jefe de Dia," chief, or officer nf the day. Nearly every man about me carried. slung at his hide, a bright tin plate and sometimes a large tin cup. Nearly all the Bit n wore the Cuban uniform, and yet tbis cuifnrm is . uucertain that it cau be varied to suit individual fancies. Soui wore coats and others mere shirts or lose tunics. Some bats were of ftrai, others of felt. Some of the men worehigb leggings, like a cavalrv top boot, aud others did not. Every man in the clowd seemed to be overjoyed. The appea-auce iu tbis respect waa very diffeuut from that of tbe American reguUrs, who are glad to go on service, but uie too old soldiers to show any excitenijnt over it Tbeee men revealed all tie enthusiasm of volunteers going to figh. Under the comic opera aspect there was a genuine willingness to risk their jives for their country.

According to recent letterj from tbe Wand, tbe feeling in tbe f atire island, cut side of San Juan, is oueJof hostility to Spain, and the captufe of tbe island by the United Statewill be welcomed by tbe better class 4 residents. Robfcrt H. Todd, the secretary of tbe jnntasaid tbe other night that the Puertt R icans have only been waiting for a 4vorable opportunity to throw off tbe ytke f Spain. Personally and cfcially;1 eaid be, " I am ia favor of the iadep-denc f tbe island, but the majority tf merchants and planters, to my knowledge, prefer annexation to tbe Unite Stat. They fear an independent rafioblic would soon become like Haiti ad Sa.Jto Domingo aud assert that the FifcoertT interests cf the island would be safer if nnaer us wmg m irse I cannot adrothis cos q try. Of course I cannot advo- j cats anything of tbe kind. The junta baa been for years working for the independence cf Puerto Rico and we shall continue on tbe fcaiiie line.
