Senator Hawlev took occasion dur
ing the Cuban talk in the Senate to
1elterate warning words uIon a sub
ject he is Thoroughly familiar with.
He said: w are in no condition as
d country to step forward into the
arena of the world and say We are
going to see justice done to every poor
people everywhere that We will de-
clare belligerency, or that we will de-
clare val. The Senator from Illinois,
Mason, asked with vigor once or twice
if we were afraid of war. Yes, 7 am
afraid of war on the part of an un-
protected snatiOn. | declare that we
are not fit to undertake a wal against
any but the very weakest nations Of
the earth, and this is The text upOD
which | have been preaching these
ten or twelve years, more or less. NV
hope is to see u coast defences and
our navy put into such condition that
we can conduct an International de-
bate, for we cannot have an inter-
national debate without the guns;
and when we have something OF an
armament that is beftting our great
place in the world, we can afford to
u the responsibilities the
Almighty has placed upon us by
reason of our wealth and our power "
10 speaking thus Senator HaNlsy
made no p%retence OF representing the
administration, or in fact any body
but himself.

eggs go for the dress"
"What fer ?" he asked in astonish-
ment, as he mounted his horse.
"How many eggs did you have ?"
Basket full"
"How many dozen ?"
"Dunno. Can't count"
"Thats where you miss the advan-
tages of education. With knowledge
you might have got two dresses for
those eggs"
"But I don't want two dresses, mis-.
ter" he argued.

on why you should have paid two

A Venerable YeW.Tree.

In the churchyard at barley Dale,
England, is the most venerable yew.
tree in the world. Many authorities
claim for it fabulous age, making it
as much as three thousand years old.
1t is thirty three feet in girth; but its
trunk has suffered not little from the
modern Goths and Vandals, who have
carved their names in the bark, and
employed other methods Of mutila.
ton. The tree is now fenced round
to save it from further insult; "and
whatever may be its precise age,"
says Rev. DR.. John Charles Cox,
"there can be little doubt that this
grand old tree has given shelter to the
early Britons when planning the con-
struction Of the dwellings that they
erected not many yards to the west Of
its trunk; to the Romans who built up
the funeral pyre for their slain CON-
rades just clear of its branches; to
Saxons, converted, perchance, to the
true faith by the preaching Of Bp.
Diuma beneath its pleasant shade; to
the Norman masons, chiseling their
quaint sculptures to form the first
stone house of prayer erected in its
vicinity; and to the host Of Christian
worshippers, who, from that day TO
this, have been borne, under its hoary
limbs, in women's arms to the baptis-
NAL font, and then on mems shoulders
to their last sleeping-place in the soil
that gave it birth. "--I.ondon Public
