r.prcrAL CABLE TO THE NEWS,


AMSTERDAM, April 2l.-The report has
been set afloat in this city that the island
republic of San Domingo has been vir-
tually sold to private hotel company in
the United States. the sum agreed upon
being fixed at So, 500, 900 in 5 per cent. deb
entures. secured on the revenue from to-
bacco, etc. This concession has been sold
by Messrs. westerndorff, the well-known
bankers of this city and the representa-
tives of the San Domingo bondbolders.
At present nothing remains but the
signatures OF the American representa-
tives to complete the transaction and Sc
cure to the United States this most inn
portant harbor and coaling station. The
holder OF this concession practically rules
the republic. because he pays the officials
and receives the revenue from the tobacco
monopoly.
The statement Is made that the scheme
has been approved and indorsed by Secre-
tary Blame and is supported by Messrs.
Gould and ID. Ogden Mills. IL is also
stated that those gentlemen are going TO
spring it upon the United States as a
campaign weapon somewhat upon the

What sound is thatp IT'S the summer fare

Inthe breath of the nlght.wind signing
The chill breeze comes, like sorrowful
dlrge,
That walls DER the dead and the dying;
The sapless leaves are eddying round
On she path that they lately shaded,
the OAK OF the forest is losing lis robe,
The flowers have fallen and faded.
All that | look on but saddens my heart,
To think that tho lovely so soon must depart.
Yetwhy should Sghs Other summers will

Again will the vine bear its blushing fruit,
Agalh VIII the birds be singing.
The forest VIII put forth Its "honors" again,
The rose BIO as sweet in Its breathing;
The woodbne will climb round the lattice
pane
AS wild and rich in Its wreathing;
The hives will have honey, bees will hum,
Other flowers will spring, other summers
will come.
They will, they will; but ali who can tell
Whether may live on till their coming
My spirit may be on the evergreen Shore"
When again they are warblng and hum.

My check, now pale, may be paler far
When the summer sun next is glowing
The cherlshing rays may gid with light
The grass on my grave.turf growing.
The earth may be glad, but the worrs and
gloom
May dwell with me in the silent tomb.
And few would weep in this beautiful
world
For the lameless ono that had left IT.
Few would remember the one cut off,
And mourn the stroke that cleft IL.
Many might keep my name on their lip,
Pleased while that name degrading
My follies and sins alone would live,
A theme for their cold upbraiding.
All what q change in my spirits dream
May there be ere the summers sun next

The Sense of Touch.

The sense of touch is the simplest
but at the same time one of the most
important, special senses of the human
organism. 1t is possessed by nearly
all portions of the general surface OF
the body, but finds its highest devel-
ment in the hands. The true skin
contains multitudes ofnerve filaments,
arranged in rows of papille, about
one-hundredth of an inch i'm length.
1t is estimated that there are 10000
OF these papill9 in a square inch OF
the palmar surface of the hand. The
cuticle is absolutely essential to the
sensation of touch, for when the true
skin is laid bare by burn or blister,
the only feeling that it experiences
from contact is one of pain, not that OF
touch. The cuticle shields the nerve
filaments from direct contact with ex-
ternal objects. Touch is most deli
cate at the tips of the fingers, and the
hand is one of the most important
organs. Button declares that with
the fingers twice as numerous and
twice as long, we would become pro-
portionally wiser. Galen, however,
taught that man is the wisest of ami
mails, not because he possesses the
hand, but because he is the wisest and
understands its use, the hand has been
given to him; for his mind, not his
hand, has taught him the arts. En-
qiisite delicacy of touch is attained
by practice. Without it the skill OF
the painter, sculptor and musician
would be rude indeed Jenness
Miller's Monthly.
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1892-10-11

So much has been said about the
|friyoIity, Incompetence or fussiness OF
American mothers that ii viii not be
amiss to Inquire into the character
istics Of our fathers Of families. With
the best of intentions in the world the
lime that city man can spend with
his family ia usually very limited, and
he is not always in the mood to exert
helpful influence, when he returns
at night worn out with business cares,
and often prefers the club, lodge or
neighboring corner to his family
circle his wife may see little of him
and his children less. 1t is not a mat
ter of indifference, however, even in
regard to health, whether the children
enjoy due proportion of their fathers
companionship, for that is or should
be vital factor in the children's
growth and education, and, whenever
they are deprived of it, certain ele-
ments of character and mind are most
always absent. Look around among
your friends where the children have
grown up without father, and see if
your observation does not show that
there is some quality of heart or mind
some check or balance wanting, that
no one else could supply. observe
that American fathers, whether from
the exactions of business or other or
binary reasons, do not ordinarily
come to my Office with their ailing
children. The whole matter is often
left i'll the hands of the wife or some
relative. Germans are more apt to
come than Americans, aud Hebrews
most of all indeed, l cannot refrain
from expressing my admiration of the
domestic life of the better class of
Jews i'll New York, which, so far as /
have observed it, is in many respects
more nearly what it should be than
that of any class in our community.

The Cypsey Moth Spreading

For several years past the State
authorities of Massachusetts, have
been waging war of determination
against the eypsey moth, and so far
have not effected their object. A re-
port now comes that the dangerous
pest has made its appearance in the
village of Africa, Wyoming CO., n.
Y. If so, the Village authorities ought
not to be left unaided TO combat this
foe. If the whole power of New
York State is needed to do this work
it should not he grudged. 1t is a
matter in which the entire people of
the State are interested. People in
other localities, too, should be on the
watch for this dangerous enemy

A Possible Addition to our Stool
Farms.

Shall we grow kangaroos in this
country? Those familiar with the
habits and hardness of this animal
express no doubt that we can if we
want to do so. They are still abund
ant in Australia, and in some locali-
ties are regarded as a nuisance as
interfering with the sheep pssturage.
That fact should settle the matter. If
sheep pay better than kangaroos, let
us stick to sheep breeding, and leave
to Australians the kind of stock ma
ture originally provided for them. and
which is probably best adapted TO
their needs. But so many uses have
been found for the skins fur and flesh
of kangaroos that their continued
propagation somewhere is reasonably
certain. They are a rather ugly
brute in a fight, ripping up the bowels
of any antagonist with their long
claws on their strong hind feet. That
is another reason against naturaliz-
ing this animal as part of American
farm stock.-Ex.

II. g. Blandford has discontinued
the publication Of the Somerset Re-
publican because the party has failed
to give him the proper support. This
does not speak well for county

become educated fully, in regard to
the drift of such measures as the
Force Bill and the Robber Tariff,
there will be more Republican papers.
