A CASE FOR GRESHAM.

Now. then, Mr.. Gresham. take on
your coat. roll up your shirt-sleeves and
have II out with Russia, II you do not
want the United States Government
to earn the discredt of falling to pro-
tect naturalized citizens in their rights
abroad. to which they are MS well en-
titled as are native-born Americans.
Here Is, or here was. a naturalized
citizen, "A subject OF Russia originally.
who came over to the United States
twenty-five years ago. settled In Buffalo.
made fortune by industry in business.
and went to Russia some months ago
to see his family. He was arrested there
under some old and. as alleged, trumpet
up charges OF embezzlement, but in
fact for political reasons. and thrown
into jail. lie made an appeal through
his friends to our State Department,
and negotiations for his release were
begun. but no trial OF the prisoner took
place and no satisfaction was received
from the Russian Government.
Now comes the news that Keixminsky
died I'm prison last Saturday. and there
Is the end of the matter.
But ought II to be the end? Ought not
the mild-mannered Secretary Gresham
to sternly demand a full explanation
from Russia OF all the circumstances
connected with this affair? ought he
not to insist on knowing something
about the treatment the prisoner re-
ceiVed and the cause of his death?
Come, Mr. Gresham, the rights OF
American citizens in Russia are of
vastly more Importance and interest to
the American people than the rights of
Queen Lily IN Hawaii.

fears to make any outcry such occasions
dreading the publicity OF 1t. and has borne these
insults for months patiently hoping the fellow
would cease, but he still continues. What course

CATS NEVER FAIL TO COME BACK.

A Henry street cigar dealer owred
Maltese cat. II lay arourS in snug
peacefulness on his counter. and was to
some extent the apple OF his eye. But
1t wandered off-"took a NOPE as the
boys say-and the cigar dealer heard its
miaow no more nor rested his gladdened
eye upon its mouse-coored coat until
he found II in the possession OF the
tanitor OF a jefferson street building.
He had the janitor arrested. but the
Judge said the cigar dealer would have
to sue civilly. and so the dealer is going
to sue. PERHAPS he will blow in" all his
cheroots. narghilahs, clay pipes and twist
tobacco in suing for his cat He may
render himself homeless In pursuit OF the
feline, for lawyers are ruthless and
courts are slow.
II he has sense he will sit down
quietly alongside his cigar lighter and
wait, Let the jefferson street ianitor
have the cat. let him feed II and put sill
YER bells and yellow ribbon on its neck
Then some day when puss is plump and
pampered, she will wander into the
Henry street cigar store. brush against
the gentlcman's legs and say "Howde
do?"
There is no use going To law about n
feline, For the cat always comes back.
