O’'Con- nor advanced on Oliver and an alterca- tion followed. During the argument O'Connor drew a clasp knife and made two passes at the colored man. The second blow plunged the knife into Otiver’'s abdomen. The negro was removed to the Cen- Emergency Hospital, where his wound was pronounced fatal.

BELIEVES IN AMERICA. We shall not forget; nor shall we lose faith. Whatever be the dangers that seem to threaten, though the cry of too zealous pai tisanship or the wail of bilious pessimism m: fill the air, though wealth point with alarm to cressicns of labor, and labor shout with r at the growth of capital, though charge suntur-charge be made and the whole > of government seem to the nervous eye toppling to destructibn, the great, true people of this land will ever believe ig her power to breast every peril and to solve every difficulty. We belleve in America. We believe she will remain faithful to the declaratio she made on the 4th day ot July, 1776. W believe that she will continue to be a place where the individual, no mAtter what may be his station in life, ‘his education, his creed. his race, his abilities, may work out his life. in the way he may choose, restricted only by such laws as will_prevent his encroachment upen the rights of his fellows We belleve this nation will ever be, what she 1 now, the first nation of the world; first, not because of her multitudinous sources of wealth and power, 1 broad stretches of territory teeming With produce, her great, sweeping, commerce-laden rivers, her com. manding frontage upon the two great oceans of the globe, or her rich, active metropolise & great continent; nor her secure isolation; nor | Vet because of her victorlous fleets fresh from achievements that startled the world; nor her e, patriotic aFmy springing spontaneously at the note of danger from the farm, the worl shop, the foundry, the store, the professio from every vocation of the people, and retw ing with the coming of peace to the plain duties of citisenship: first, not because of all these, but first among the powers of the earth for her devotion to those principles which marked and consecrated her birth, which pro- claimed her not only a new nafion but the mother of & new oivilization, and which pledged her forever to the cause of human kind. TRAMP OF MARTIAL FEET. Touching examples of that American patriotism born in '76 were shown in the morning’s parade. Veterans of three wars were in the line of march. some of them, too feeble even to totter to the music of the drum to which they once stepped so lightly, rode in car- riages. These were -the grizzled men of the Mexican and Civil wars. Before them on well-groomed steeds rode the colored troopers of the Ninth Cavalry, seasoned fighters who saw service in Cuba and the Philippines; and after the veterans of the older wars marched later day heroes, the First Regiment of the National Guard.
