Jean de Reszke, the famous} old Polish singer, passed away on the battle front of France.) He was only 23 when he was called upon to make the supreme sacrifice. Nobly and willingly he went, and when| re arking his turn came he passed away with the simple words, “I die the death I coveted,” on his lips. There’s a wonderful likeness in the death of this young Polish patriot, fighting for the freedom of his own land and that of the world, to that of our Nathan Hale, who passed away with those memorable words, es only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country Both fought for the principles of liberty and justice, both fought to make their country safe from the tyrants of ' autocracy, and both died for a cause that has triumphed and will triumph till the principles for which they fought are es- tablished in all corners of the world. There are thousands upon thousands of these young pa- triots from overtrodden Poland, from free America, from France, and England and Italy and from every freedom lov- ing country in the world who will keep on battling against the standards of autocracy and greed till they are banished from the earth. And those youths’ who must give their lives to attain this end will give them gladly, dying the deaths they coveted.
