Growing
Children

One-third Of ali the children
die before they are five years
old. Most of them die of some
wasting disease. They grow
very slowly; keep thin in flesh;
are fretfuf; food does not do
them much good. You can't
say they have any disease, yet
they never prosper. A slight
cold, or some stomach and
bowel trouble takes them away
easily.
SORTS EMULSION of
Cod-lver OH with Hypophos-
phites is just the remedy for
growing children. 1t makes
hard flesh; sound flesh, not
soft, f1abby fat. 1t makes
strong bones, healthy nerves.
1t changes poor children to
children rich IN prosperity.

The Fate of Gen. Rivera.

One story this morning hadit that Gen
Rivera had been murdered at sunrise yes
terday. l.ut it did not receive wide accept
ance. although what it alleged seemed
characteristic OF weyler's methods and
practices. 1t is possible that he has killed
the general in haste, lest some interfer-
ence on the part of the United states
should prevent his doing it at all; but it
is more likely that he will be shot today
OF tomorrow morning that is, of course,
unless this Government has taken measures
20 stop the execution.
We are glad to see that the patriotic So
cieties. and especially those OF the women,
are taking fire on this Cuban question at
last 4 great deal of good for the cause Of
liberty and humanity can be accomplished
I'm this way. 1t is TO be hoped that many
more Cuhan meetings will be called and
held. The money power in this country
ana abroad is nervously anxious to keep
American sympathy for Cuba in the back
ground, or 20 suppress it if it shows its
head: but il is something that viii not

the American sentiment OF outraged Chris

The Presidents Big Cigars.
lFrom the New York Tribune

At the dinner which he gave to the Cab
net last week the President brought out
a box OF cigars that were fully eight
inches long and an inch and half in
diameter. Several of the guests who are
tough old smokers, like Mr.. Gage and Mr..
Bliss, Mr., Hanna and Col Herrick of Cleve-
land undertook to smoke them, and said
that their flavor vas the finest they had
ever tasted in cigar, but one would last
a whole evening, and they did not have
time to smoke more than halfway up be-
fore they were called To rejoin the ladies.
These cigars were received last week by
the President from manufacturer in Ha-
vana, and were part of an invoice made
to order for the Emperor of Austria, who
likes his cigars long, fat and strong, and
pays $40 for box containing only ten
cigars, OF So cigar The tobacco is Of
the finest quality to be obtained in Cuba.
The cigars are made with unusual care,
and there is as much tobacco in ten OF
them as in box containing Loo ordinary
sized cigars The President received these
through a friend who happened to have
been visiting in Cuba and was asked by
the manufacturer to bring them to iin.

moderate circumstances and take all the

skill is absolutely necessary. And there

CAPITeh GOSSIP.


Chandler Hale, who was nominated
Thursday for secretary obligation at Rome,
comes of distinguished ancestry His
father is Senator Eugene II ale, OF Maine.
His grandfather was the famous Senator
Zachariah Chandler, of Michigan, fer whom
he is named. Two uncles of his grand
father were mcmbers OF Congress from
New Englandd Jehn Chandler, of Maine,
great great grandunele of the new secre-
tary at Rome, was member of Congress
from Maine While the State was still On
integral part of Massachusetts. He was
afterward the first Senator from the State
of Maine. Thomas Chandler, another great
great uncle or the new secretary at Rome,
was member of Congress from
New Hampshire, the State in which
Zachariah Chandler was born. There have
been but few years in the present century
during which some ancestor or collateral
relative of the new secretary Of legation
has not been in Congress-
Another interesting fact is that Chand-
Ter Hale enters public life as secretary OF
legation in Rome 1t was in that same
city that Lewis Cass, Jr., began his own
public career as L.inister to the Papai
states The elder Cass, born in New
Hampshire, only a few miles from Zacha-
riah Chandier's birthplace, was for many
years q rival of Chandler in politics, and
his predecessor in the Senate. 1t is re-
lated that when Chandler first became
conspicuous in politics as a candidate for
governor, Cass exerted his influence and
mis- money to defeat him. After election
Chandler gravely remarked: What Gen.
Cass did against me will cost him his seat
in the Senate" Later Cass heard OF this
remark, and promptly expressed his In
dignation and disgust. What" said he
Chandler succeed me in the Senate?
That counter-jumper!' He alluded to
the fact that Chandler was dry goods
merchant. But Chandler was a prophet,
and just forty years ago this month he
wrested from lie wis Cass the seat the vet
eran had so long henored in the Senate.
1t is an interesting fact, also, that there
Is another noted family alliance OF the
Chambers and Hales, OF New England
A Senator Hale is the son-in-law Of the
late Senator Zach Chandler, so is the
present Senator Chandler the sonin-law of
the famous Senator John +. Hale.
Chandler Hale is said by his frieTls To
be an active, energetic young man who will
in The course Of time add fame to the pair
OF great names that he bears.

An Inland Seaport.

Springfield wants to be a seaport town.
Springfield has a truly Shakespearean i'm
! agination. When Shakespeare located a
play in Bohemia and afterwaTd wanted to
shipwreck people in a convenient place in
the play, he had no hesitation whatever in
remodeling the geography TO suit the stu
alton. So Springfield. How a town sit
uated in the middle OF the western part of
Massachusetts can be seaport might seem
an inScrutable mystery to the commonplace
mind: but il isn't. All that's needed is to
widen and deepen the Connecticut River
for about eighty-five miles. People could
then take a sea voyage from Springfield
to New York with great ca sc and celerity,
and the Connecticut would be dotted with
white-winged boats and steam packets
TO an almost incredible degree 1t is even
conceivable that soIne of the commerce
that at present goes to New York might
come TO the metropolis OF western Massa-
chusetts.
Bot, after all. isn't this just little
greedy on the part Of Springfield? Al
ready important railway lines converge at
this pretty little city, and with them
the traffic OF all the western part Of
New England. Not content with this, and
with being the autocrat OF culture and
fashion for people too far off TO know
Boston, Springfield wants the glory of
the seaport-the direct contact with for
eign nations But foreign nations aren {
always so pleasant when they are en-
countered too violently. 1t might be tina {
the peaceful, elm-shaded metropolis would
Toe invaded by a bowling mob of anarchists,
and immigrants, and land-grabbers, and
new Journalists, and other accompani-
ments of life that is rapid and tricks
that are gay. Let Springfield think be-
fore she asks for a harbor in addition to
her big railway station. Does she want
the whole earth camping on her frcnt
doorstep?

The Bureau Cure.

A Jerseyman has discovered something
which, il is claimed, will be of considerable
benefit to the human race He is a solid
and phlegmatic Dutch farmer named Van
derstadt, and, as all the world kno ws now ,he
cured his wife OF scolding by shutting her
upin aburcaudrawer Letit be understood
that there were air-holes bored in the
back Of the bureau, else the phlegmatic
Dutch gentleman would have cured his
wife Of the living habit as well as the
shrew habit The result Of the widespread
publicity which has been given to this
item is that several husbands are looking
for old-fashioned Dutch bureaus with
deep drawers, and there is a small boom
in the antique furniture market down in
Jersey.
There are reasons, however, that the
bureau drawer reform is not destined to
become general 1t is too limited in its
possibilities The Dutch husband had the
advantage of being so much bigger than
his Ni1e IAdN lie C0uiO PICK uSF up DDllllt
and put her into the drawer. and keep her
there while he turned the key He even
had the surplus strength to tuck her dress
IN nicely before he shut the drawer, and
was not too much exhausted to sit dow
and smoke a pipe. There are not many
men who would be equal to all this, or
TO the far grea ter danger OF encounter
ing the lady after her release. Anyone
whose memory treasures the experience
OF being shut up in dark closet till he
VIII be good knows that that treatment
is extremely predetermined in its effect
Mr.. Vanderstadt and his wife were ex-
ceptional people.
And then, there is the sequel Go the story
Mrs Vanderstadt may have been cured of
scoldiug, but she finally had her husband
arrested to cure him of the habit of shut
ting her mp in bureau drawers

York paper to give his opinion of that fight.
and so incurred the danger of having one
OF the champions come after him. The
that the Senate door swung TO and banged
him hard. 1t was case of the total de-
pravity OF inanimate objects.
Inanimate objects have peculiar way
OF acting sometimes. 1t almost seems as
If they were alive Our great-grand-
fathers used to say that they were tnysteri-
GUS providences when theysacted in that
way, but after two or three boatloads OF
people had been drowned on their way
to Funerals, and oeacons of the church
had been hit by railroad trains when
going to church and badly shaken UP, the
Jobs friend theory fen into disuse. But
it must have been interesting to be in
trouble in those days. All ones friends
would gather around and ask whatone had
done thatinvited such a punishment When
man was putting down carpet ana
pounded his thumb, it was as likely as
not to be said that the pain wasa judgment
on him for profane language To be sure,
he used the profane language after he hit
his thumb andnot before, but the supPosition
was that mysterious providence knew he
was going to swear and SO gave him the
excuse.
In those days, if Senator Piatt had been
alive and had bumped his head, his fellow
Senators would have gathered about and
asked him what he had been doing that
they did not like. Bot now it is recog-
nlzed that this accident was in the natural
course of human events, and that neither
Mi. Platt nor the door was to blame. The
world has grown wiser.
The evening times., 1897-04-03

The Senators fram the mountain States
are making desperate effort to secure the
repeal of the order made by the last adj
miuistration providing for the closing OF
forest reserves in their common wealths
Senators Clark, Carter, and Wilson have
called at the White House this week with
this purpose i'm mind. They say they do
not object TO the establishment of these
reserves on large, scale, but do protest
against the inclusion among them OF very
many acres OF Government land which is
already settled. Senator shoup, of Idaho,
was very indignant when he learned that
town named after himself had been in
Guided by mistakein the great Gdaho reserve
established by President Cleveland Other
good sized towns have been embraced in
the forest reservations
These facts conspire to emphasize the
contention of the Western Congressman
who protest that the creation of the forest
reserves was very objectionable. A some
what similar, though reversed, situation
exists in Congress relative to the provis-
ion for the opening OF the Uncompahgre
Indian reservation in Utah The Senators
from the western states are, generally
spea king, uniting in the effort TO open the
Glsopite lands in Utah. The proposed
opening was rejected in the House by
practically unanimous vote, but in the
Senate it was brought forward second
time and the Colorado Senators have
united with those from Utah and adjacent
States in endeavoring to carry the open
ing.
of course, the result cannot be predicted
with certainty, but in view Of the posi-
ton taken by the House in the last Con-
gress it is believed that the Uncompahgrc
reserve will be preserved from invasion.
And if Senator Carter and others have any
influence with the new Administration
and there are many indications that at
least some of them have the course TO be
taken by President Mckinley rela tive TO
the forest reservations will be quite the
reverse of that taken by Congress in the
matter of the Uncompahgre mineral lands.

Wall, no, can't tell whar he lives,
Because he don't live. you see;
Leastwise. he's got out of the habit
OF livin like you and me.
Whar have you been for the past three year
That you haven't heard folks tell
How Jimmy Bludso passed in his checks
The night OF the Prairie Belle?
He weren't no saint-them engin eers
Is all pretty much alike
One wife in NatcheZ-unter-the-Hil
And another one here in Pike.
A keeriess man in his talk was Jim,
And an awkward hand in row;
But he never flunked, and he never lied
| reckon he never knowed how.
And this was all the religion he had
To treat his engine well;
Never be passed on the river;
To mind the pilots bell:
And il ever the Prairie Belle took fire,
A thousand times he swore.
Fed hold her nozzle agin the hank
Till the last soul got ashore.
All boats has their day on the Mississip
And her day come at last;
The Movastar was a better boat.
But the Belle she wouldn't be passed.
And so she came tearing along that night
The oldest craft on the line
With a negro squat on her safety valve,
And her furnace cramned, rosin and
pine.
The fire burst ont as she cleared the bar
And burnt a hole in the night,
And quick as a flash he turned and made
For that willer bank on the right
There was runnin' and cursin', but Jim
yelled out d,
over the Internal roar:
IN hold her nozzle agin the bank
Till the last galoOt's ashore!''
Through the hot, black breath of the
buTnin boat
Jim Bludso's voice was heard,
And all had trust in his cussedness,
And knowed he would keep his " ord.
And, sure's you're born. they all got IF
Afore the smokestacks fell.
And Bludso's ghost went up alone
In the smoke of the Prairie Bell
He weren't no saint, but at Judgement
I'd run my chance with Jim
'Longside of some pious gentlemen
That wouldn't shock hands with him.
He seen his duty. a deSd-sure thing.
And went for it, thar and then,
And Christ amt a-going to be too hard

ningley Tariff Mennnesses.

Under our present fiscal system, people
are enabled 10 buy a reasonably good
two-bladed pocket knife for Twenty-Five
and a four-bladed one for fifty cents.
These cheap and efficient tools are OF
kind not manufactured in the United
States They cost abroad from 75 cents
to 81 SO a dozen. The two-bladed vari
ETY. pays a customs tax of 81 per cent,
the four-bladed of Sc per cent. The Ding
ley tariff proposes to levy duty on them
at the rate Of 45 and 2O4 per cent, re-
spectively.
1t is not contended that the cheap cut
lery in question completes with any like
native manufacture The nearest thing
to il made in this country is the pot metal
jack-knife, dear to the heart of boyhood,
but not otherwise useful or ornamental
The obvious intention of the prohihtory
tax is to compel American citizens to buy
another character of goods. largely pro-
duced in this country, for which they
would have to pay much higher prices.
The proposed tariff on the kinds above
referred to would at once put an end to
their Importation, and the Government
would lose the revenue now derived from
them.
This is a notable illustration of the
petty meannesses Of the Dingley tariff
conspiracy From one end to the other
it ignores the interests of all consumers.
