The gathering of Grand Army veterans at Pittsburg is evidently as great a con- gregation as even the most liberal of calcu- Jptors had figured upon, and unless the hos- Pitable plans miscarry the encampment of 1804 will be a very successful affair. As the years go by and the strife of 1861-’65 steadily recedes there is decided growth of general interest in the annual assembling of those who fought to preserve tle Union, and, like that for which they were willing to give up all, survived. From all points of the compass and often from faraway re- gions thousands and thousands of aged and rapidly-aging men have traveled to reunite with comrades in the greatest of Pennsylvania's manufacturing cities, where, for the time being, business is subordinated to the pleasure of playing the host to those to whom the nation must everlastingly be indebted, and for whom—demagogues to the contrary notwithstanding—the nation can never do too much. It was no easy thing to lay upon the altar of country all of the hopes and aspirations common to young men planning careers in civil life; it was grandly patriotic to trample upon cherished plans that a government whose fundamental principle was liberty should not fall; it was sublime to say farewell to wife and children and to march away to maiming or to death. The dead are not forgotien; on at least one day in the year their graves are visited by sympathetic men and women and children, who strew the brightest blossoms thereon. This is the time when the living are especially remembered. It will not be long ere these reunions must cease. Each succeeding semblage is smaller than its predecessor and the decrease will continue with ac- celerated speed until the last veteran of the Union army will have gone to answer roll call in another world. Bearing in mind the sacrifices made by those who compose the membership of the Grand Army of the Republic—-of whom many now suffer untold and inexpressible physical agonies consequent upon their services under arms —thére should be increase rather than ces- ation of effort upon the part of this gen- eration of Americans to smooth the path- way of the men who fought and bled and, if necessary, would have died to save from destruction the best government mankind has ever known. —__ ee ___- ‘Today’s election in Maine means to one man more than a mere party victory. That the Pine-Tree state will be overwhelmingly republican In its vote is a reasonable cer- tainty, and it may easily be that the result in Vermont—where the democrats lost about twenty-six per cent of their vote—will be duplicated, if not surpassed. Under almost any circumstances that can be conceived of Thomas Brackett Reed will be a power im the next national convention of the re- publican party, but if he has behind him a phenomenal republican vote in his own state he will be one of the strongest candi- dates for the nomination. It will be argued that his geographical location is far from favorable, but that consideration is not al- ways powerful; it has in it the element of unfairness which compels the appointment of candidates for government clerkships with a rating of seventy-five per cent over the heads of candidates who attained more than ninety-five per cent, simply because the state-quota abomination is in existence. Chairman Manley of the Republican Na- tional Executive Committee, says that ali New England will do its utmost to capture the nomination for Reed; he insists that Reed is Biaine’s legitimate successor in the affections of New England republicans. It is undoubtedly true that Tom Reed could have secured the vice-presidential nomina- tion in 1892, but he and his friends were more ambitious; with a big majority in Maine today their argument will be vigor- ously renewed in 1896. - —__ + ++ ___ One of the chief arguments advanced against a single gold standard has been the contention that the precious yellow metal 1s becoming too scarce to be depended upon as a basis for the monetary supply of the world. Recent statistics, however, suggest tkat this reason promises to become weak- ened. The figures of the output of gold for the first six months in 1894 show a surpris- ing increase over former years. In the United States the product for the period mentioned amounted to $18,020,356 or $2,640,- 646 more than for the first half year in 1893. There are reports of similar increases given for the gold-producing countries in Aus- tralia and South Africa. Estimating the pro- duction of the year, therefore, upon the out- put of the first six months conservative statisticians expect the entire output this year will reach the enormous total of $17: 000,000. This has never been equaled in the history of the world, and it will need but a very small further increase to put the pro- duction of gold alone abreast of the com- bined production of both gold and silver during the years from 1866 to 1873, when the western silver mines were at the height of their productiveness. It will be interesting to see what effect the gold increase will have upon the international deliberations over the money question. ———__+++-_____ A man hanged himself in New Jersey be- cause somebody made fun of his bathing suit.

Gathmann is the inventor of a new style of telescope and the possessor of what ts said to be the most complete private astronomical observatory in the country. Through this telescope the wide- awake Chicagoan was scanning the moon's surface when, to his great astonishment, he suddenly saw in the vicinity of the great crater Tycho a spot of vivid green in the midst of the blacks and whites that mark the depressions and elevations of the lunar crust. “Green,” said Mr. Gathmann, in making known his discovery, “is a color hitherto unknown among the shades of the moon. I thought I must be in error, and, after wiping the eye-piece carefully, rubbed my own eyes and looked again. ‘There it was still. a weil defined patch of green close to the famous crater and slight- ly to the west. I changed the eye-piece— still the same result. Then, though I had never suspected I was color blind, I called in my family and several neighbors. All @aw the verdant spot as I did. We watched it til 11 o'clock that night, while it passed through the entire field of vision, unchang- THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1894—TEN PAGES. of the Verdant patch to muthing like forty by seventy miles in extent. Unfortunately, however, he did not then attempt to fix the precise location of the moon's emerald subdivision, and when he afterwards endeavored to relo- cate it, it was not visible. The discoverer at once jumped to the conclusion that the green spot could be nothing else than vege- tation—elther grass or forests. It appar- ently has not occurred to him that the green tint was merely an out-cropping of the green cheese which every child has been taught to believe is the main sub- stance of the night-illuminating orb. Hith- erto that theory has been laughed at by scientists, but in view of the Gathmann discovery it is not safe to jeer at the state- ments which have been reiterated in suc- cessive editions of Mother Goose rhymes. If Mr. Gathmann perseveres he may yet be able to substantiate the green cheese theory by discovering in motion the mites which invariably inhabit cheese that has reached the vegetative stage. ——__ -+ + Balthaore claims to have benefited much by the Knights of Pythias encampment in this city.

From the New York Herald. The most important ‘action taken by the citizers’ meeting on Thussday night was the adeption of a resolution calling for the appoirtment of a committee of seventy to carry out the purpose of the meeting. On the ccmposition of this committee every- thing will depend. Business men can well afford to undertake this duty. They must undettake it if they wish to see New York rescved from abuses from which not only its government, but also its commerce, bus- iness, trade and industry have suffered. These abuses have flourished because the better class of citizens and business men have left the control of municipal affairs to the politicians. If they are to be reformed it must be done by business men taking hold of the work in earnest. +o Torrid September. From the New York World. How short men's n:emories are!
