A WASHINGTON VIEW.

The administration acted wisely
in suppressing Willis dispatch,
describing his interview with ex-
queen Lii, not, however, because
its publication would seem to be
at all incompatible with the public
interest, meaning thereby the
American public, but because a
knowledge by the people of it's
contents would have caused the
policy of queen-restoring and its
advocates 10 be instantly over
whelmed by wave Of public in
dignation.
In the first place, the President
of the United States by proxy pros
trates himself before Mrs. Dominis.
The President makes known CHS
sincere regret that through the
unauthorized Intervention of the
United States she has been obliged
to surrender her sovereignty and
his hope that with her consent and
cooperation the wrong done to her
and to her people might be re-
dressed" "The President not
only tenders you his sympathy,
but wishes to help you"
Then the President hints at am
nesty, to the extent at least of
questioning her royal highness as
to her intentions. Her majesty is
explicit upon this point. She will
behead her enemies and confiscate
their property to the Government
that is, to herself. Truly a tiger
Lilil
The Presidents proxy thereupon
intimates that he will have to COM
municate with the President before
he can fully indorse the proposed
beheading of Americans, kisses the
hem of the royal garments, and
wriggles backward out of the royal
presence.
1t is to be noted that there is
difference of opinion between the
President and the ex-queen as to
the persons responsible for her
overthrow The President pleads
guilty for the United States. The
queen holds responsible the mem
bers of the Provisional Government
and their supporters, the religi-
Gus, intelligent, civilized, prop
erty-owning element of the
population. These people," she
says, were the cause of the revo-
luton and the Constitution of 1887.
There will never be any peace while
they are here" She hates them
because they have dethroned her,
Notwithstanding Mr.. Cleveland as
sures her that they did not de-
throne her. She will revenge her
self upon these Christian mission
aries and American business men,
who are the natural enemies OF an
idolatrous, profigate queen, seek

QUEEN LII.
Song

AOOhSJ
There once was a queen, of islands
green,
In the South Pacific seas,
Who had subjects white, and black
as night,
With Kanakas and Chimes;
She had houses, lands and troops and
bands
Upon her island shore;
But it would seem that this gay queen
Yet wanted something more.
Chorus.
So she plotted all the night
And she plotted all the day
To break the law, or find a flaw
Her subjects to dismay.
Of this queen, alas it came to pass
That she was drunk with rage,
And only head, she wildly said,
Could her dark grief assuage.
But the gods did Lii, with anger fill
IT'S a way that they employ
So that they might have their delight
And this savage queen destroy.
Chorus.
And Lii now cries all day
" Pm stupid as mule ~
And loud her moan" lost a throne
Because / was a fool"

that they are to be counselors of

LIE Is A FIGHTER
One OF the Bravest Omcers in
Uncle Sans Army.
His War Record Is the Pride of the Entire
Cavalry Branch of the Military
Service Now Command
eEr at Fort Miles.

"Fighting Guy" sat in one Of the
Wild West show boxes the other after
pocu, accompanied by his friends, Col.
Church, of the Army and Navy Jour
nal, and Mr.. Ed Haight, well.known
Wall street man. If a fair percentage
Of the 2e,65o other spectators, SAYS the
New York-Sun, had had an inkling OF
who he was, their interest in the show
would no doubt have been divided be-
tween him and the performers. But in
civil dress and under ordinary circum-
EtaDces hardly anybody in throng is
less conspicuous than Brevet Brig. Gen.
Guy Y. Henry, familiarly known in the
sruy and all along the western from
tier as Fighting Guy"
He IS a slender man, hardly above
medium height, and probably does not
weigh over 140 pounds. His complexion
Is fair, his small mustache a very light
brown, and his eyes arc the lightest of
light blues. They look equally good,
but only one is serviceable, the sight
Of the other having been destroyed by
Rforty-four caliber ball in the battle
of Rose Bud Creek, June i, 1875 At
the same time and by the same bullet
was made the deep scar which marks
his left cheek, near the sightless eye.
Gen. Henry was graduated from
West Point on May 6, 1861, and was
assigned to the First artillery as a
second lieutenant at once. All through
the war-of the rebellion he remained
In that branch of the service, winning
distinction by his gallantry and
marked ability in continuously arduous
duty. In 1871 he was hunting Apaches
IN Arizona. In 1873 he was on duty in
Wyoming, and through 1874 and 1873
was having lots of interesting times
scouting in the Black hills, fighting In
nians, getting frozen in bhzzards and
otherwise enjoying himself. He com

first sawed into short lengths, then
| passed through a steam splitter which
carries the pieces to an elevator, which
| in turn passes them along and drops
| them down into the delivery wagons.
| The pieces OF timber. which are four
feet six inches in length, are first sawed
| into eight and one-haf inch lengths,
the saws used for the purpose being
| thirty inches IN diameter, one-eigbth
of an inch in thickness, having fifty
inch and a quarter teeth. These saws
make about two thousand revolutions
per minute, the attendant being able
to saw up about from twelve to fifteen
cords per day. The pieces as fast
as they are sawed are passed to q
steam splitter. They are fret placed
end up on a movable endless chain,
which, by the aid OF two hexagon
wheels and ratchet wheel which is
worked bF an eccentric, causes the
chain with the wood 70 move along
under the kives, which pass down
through the pieces of wood, splitting
each of them into a dozen or more
pieces.
The knives are four in number and
bolted into the crosshead. They are
twelve inches in length, six inches in
width and three-quarters of an inch in
thickness. The knives pass up and
down a perpendicular slide with
twelve-inch stroke, making about
eighty cuts per minute. The endless
chain Is twelve inches in width. and
passes over wooden bed, the top Of
which is covered with an iron plato
which protects the chain from the
blows Of the knives when striking the
wood. At every downward stroke of the
knives a moveable bearing which the
knives pass through holds the pieces
0fwood down firmly against the chain.
With the upward stroke it releases the
split wood, which is moved forward
about two inches at stroke by the
chain, which is worked by the ratchet
wheel and eccen tric. The pieces OF
wood then drop down into IN elevator
at the end of the machine and are car
ried off 20 the delivery wagons by q
number Of buckets boitad on a twelVe-
inch cotton belt. These buckets are
eighteen inches apart, and made of
wooden strips three inches in height
and about one and one-half inches in
thickness. They are held in place by
being bolted TO narrow 4ron strips on
the under side of the belt. The belt Is
about forty-fve feet in length, and
travels about one thousand feet per
minute. The splitting machine can
cut about twenty cords Per day. a
delivery wagon holding about one cord
can be filed in about fifteen minutes.
The wholesale price Of Virginia pine
at the dock is from seven dollars to
eight dollars per cord, the manufac-
tured kindling wood brings from eleven
dollars to thirteen dollars per cord.

saddle up, but he replied that he had

Gone Home.

On Tuesday evening, Oct, %, 1894,
just few minutes after the sun had
gone to give his light TO another people
the calm, sweet spirit OF little George,
daughter of Lena and Noah Cunningham
went to join the angels in bright Glory
Land. Blessed be God, of such is His

hands could do was done by mamma,
papa and tender, loving friends (for all
loved sweet, patient little Georgie) but
all in vain were human efforts to bind
the little ones spirit here, she had fin
ished her mission here. The dear, good
Lord wanted her up yonder so in his
mercy and goodness, when she so ten
derby called on Him for help, He bore
her across the river of death into ever
lasting love and light. 1t seemed so sad
in that home, yet through our tears we
could look upward and say, no more
does little George suffer, as she did
so long and patiently here on earth, but
has laid aside this poor little suffering
body, donned the robe of immortality,
and is now waiting and watching at the
Golden Gate to welcome loved ones as
they join her up in Heaven.

point out that the straight and open way
was the safe way--that real prudence
