The Porular Minstrals.

The Georgia University Graduates one
of the finest colored minstrel attractions
on the road, will give an entertainment
full of bright comedy, nice music and
side-splitting fun. Among a large num-
Der of press notices, all in praise of this
attraction, we quote the following from
the Yakima Daily Times of March 25th:
''The Georgia Gradustes, who greeted
\ houseful of amusement lovers at the
opera house on Saturday evening, gave
the people of this city the best, cleanest
and MOST entertaining Ministries show
ever given here. In fact, many who
attended declared that it was the best
they had eyer seen anywhere. The
people who compose the troupe are men
and women of education and refinement.
Their specialties, in which all appeared
as first class artists, were free from the
vulgar wit that so frequently jars the
sensibilities Of modest people. Their
singing was. fine, the quartet being a
combination hard to beat. The comedy
features of the performance were unus-
tally catchy and mirth provoking. They
presented many happy innovations on
the old type of minstrelsy and, all round,
rendered most enjoyable program.

, FOOTPRINTS IN THE STONE.
Discovery in q Los Angeles Park OF
Great Interest to ArchueolOEists.

discovery in q Los Angeles Park OF
Great Interest to ArchueolOEists.
Observation-Disclosures persons in
southern California are bordering
deeply over the discovery, i'll Elysian
park here, of distinct imprint in solid
stone Of a shoe worn by a human Being,
says the Los Angeles Herald. This dis
covery is certain to excite no little com
ment, for there appears to be no anthem
tic record of fossilized footprint OF
a human being of ordinary size having
been found heretofore. The peculiar
feature of this find is that the owner
of the foot wore shoe of antique Next
can fashion, with high, narrow heel
and broad, fiat sole. The imprint IS
perfectly clear and looks as though the
owner had unwittingly put his right
foot into soft mud but day or two
ago ard left his mark, to be dried by
the sun and preserved for future gen
erations.
The fossil imprint was discovered by
Iaborers who were making a deep cut
for the new wagon road northwest OF
the park It was cut out Of solid rock,
four feet or therea bouts below the sur
face soil, and from point on the hill
side at least 20 feet above the bottom
Of the little canyon at the hills base.
The stone is fine grained shale, I'M
pregnated with lime. An interesting
fact in connection. with the find is this:
Several other exceHently preserved and
clearly defined organic remains,
such as ferns, leaves ard twigs, have
been found in the same deposit. and,
still, but few days ago the
complete outline of a fish was taken
from the same stratum of stone not
many feet distant from this last find.
The fish's remains were 20 feet below
he surface.

THE AMERICAN SOLUTION.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
on Dec. 1, 1882 Secretary Blaine wrote
to the American minister at Honolulu
that while "the position Of the Hawaiian
Islands, as a key to the dominion of the
American Pacific, demands neutrality"
yet If Through any cause the mainten-
ance of such position should be found
by Hawaii impracticable, this govern
ment would then unhesitatingly meet the
altered situation by seeking avowedly an
American solution of the grave issues
presented"
Ten years later, such an emergency as
Mr.. Blaine had in mind arose. Hawaii
overthrow the native government that
oppressed her and retarded her develop
ment. and created a new government,
Which was ito exist until terms of union
with the United States of America have
been negotiated and agreed upon" The
overtures then made were postponed. but
Hawaii well understood the reason or
their postponement, and has never from
that moment to this swerved in her pur-
pose to plead again for admission at the
proper time.
That time has come, and "the Ameri-
can solution" which Mr.. Blaine forecast
is at hand. The arguments for the an
nexation Of the Hawaiian Islands have
been familiar to this country for years,
and If we row receive this group into
the fellowship of our union, no nation
and no man can accuse us either of haste
or of raracity. Hawaii has repeatedly
offered herself as a candidate for admis-
sion, and she has pointed out the Iiffi-
culties and dangers of her isolated posi-
ton. The sentiment of the American
people and the teaching of our history
are in favor of accepting her. and we
have faith that congress will duly act In
accordance with this sentiment,

A DISTINCT CUBAN POLICY.
From the Philadelphia Press.

The successive steps of the president
point logically and Enthusiastically to a
distinct and decisive affirmative policy
on behalf of eSTtja. If they do not mean
this they involve a curious anti-climax.
The president sent Mr.. Calhoun to
Cuba as a special commissioner to in
vestigate. He went ostensibly to inquire
into the murder of DIR. Ruiz. If he was
not told to keep his eyes open and look
about him it was contrary to every prob
ability. If he did not report on the gen.
eral situation and prospects 1t was a
grossly neglected opportunity. Why did
he go unless information was being
gathered for action?
Several weeks ago the president asked
congress for an appropriation of $50, 900
for the relief of Americans who had been
brought to the verge of starvation by the
cruel policy of General Weyler. The
language of the message was singularly
decorous and inoffensive. But the vel
vet glove did not conceal the mailed
hand. The appeal to congress implied
and involved far more than was said.
The Spanish policy which left six to eight
hundred Americans in distress brought
tens of thousands of Cubans to suffering.
If American interposition was necessary
to save a few hundred on the ground of
American citizenship how can it be long
delayed to save thousands on the ground
of humanity? The logic of that action
leads to further steps.
The unusual care exercised in the Sc
lection of a minister to Spain means
much. The president has hunted for a
minister-he has not allowed aspirants
to hunt him He has had several names
under consideration, but all of them
have been first-cass men, as If he had
business on hand! He didn't think OF
busy men Nike Hit and Cox for play,
and he has not summoned Woolford for
Spain minuets or banquets for the torea-
dor. He has wanted a cool, self-poised,
restrained man, with reserve power,
who cared more for results than for fuss,
and he has found him. IL General Wood
ford isn't sent TO Madrid to do something
the signs are misleading.
There are several of these signs. Put
them all together and they mean a good
deal. The administration is not drift
Ing These things look as though II
were moving by chart and compass.

ALeyer on Foreign Trade.

Inc lnIOrGnatlOn Wnlcn comes from
Washington that one of the first sub
jects to be considered by congress af-
ter the tariff bill is out of the way
will be the advisability of establishing
an international bank for the facilita-
ton of trade with South America will
be most cordially welcomed by all far
seeing American business men. Three
obstacles now interpose between Amer
lean merchants and manufacturers and
a satisfactory Pan-American COM
merce. England at present has control
of the banking facilities; England owns
gagged in the South American trade,
and English "drummers," if we may
use this expressive term, are in pos
session of the inside track.
To build up merchant marine which
can compete with England's will take
time; but there is no reason why the
other two obstacles should not be re-
moved forthwith. Rapid progress is
already being made in the introduction
in South American markets of Amer
lean goods, and it needs now only suit
able American banking facilities to
make it possible for the Yankee dealer
to begin the work of cutting the ground
from under his Anglican competitor.
On this point Thomas A. Eddy, of the
firm of Flint, Eddy & Co, of New York,
perhaps the largest firm of South
American traders in the United States,
| said in a recent magazine article:
1--WE need an American international
bank. American merchants and man.
| ufacturers who wish to do foreign bust
ness on a. large scale are dependent
upon the credits which they can get
from European bankers, whose inter-
ests naturally lead them to favor first
their own countrymen. The English
and European banks and bankers have
so admirably organized their branches
and agencies throughout the world
that under present conditions We must
use their facilities. With our large
demand for the raw materials pro-
duced by other countries, such as cof-
| fee, rubber, sugar. hides and wool from
| South America and the products of the
| far East, we have a basis of exchange
| to warrant the establishment of an
| American bank, having branches in all
| important trade centres in South Amer
| lea, and agencies in Australia, South
Africa, Japan, China and India. With
such a bank extending its influence
| to the far part of the world, furnish
| ing credit facilities for the exchange
of American products for those of other
! countries, and always in touch with
each transaction, we should transfer
| to American pockets the millions now
| paid to foreign bankers and be brought
in touch with the industrial enterprise
of new countries"
1t certainly is to be hoped that con-
gress will not long delay active steps
toward the establishment of such q
banking system.

Ajacchus' Advice
A sEAsONABLE INCIDENT.

June is the month for weddings, and the
roses everywhere
Seem to nod, as If there were unusual
gossip in the air.
The insects all eclipse the former finery
they wore.
The humble bee is buster than he ever
was before.
The lightning-bug, whose prying disposi-
tion never fails.
Has gotten out els lantern and is looking
for details.
The COW across the fence is heard to
whisper to the lamb
II hear that Miss Hawaii is to marry
Uncle Sam"
1t is very old romance. 1t wasn't hard
to guess,
BY numerous circumstances that trust
full tenderness
Pervaded the emotions of the lady in the
case.
But midst cares of pressing business, all
unheeded was her grace.
Indeed, twas even rumored-and the
story caused great pain
That the little brunette lassle had been
Tilted by the swain.
But his manners now show such regard
as cannot be a sham,
And it's likely Miss Hawaii soon will
marry Uncle Sam.

Gods NobIest Work.

There was one member Of the Illinois
legislature who, if report speaks truly,
goes home from Springfield poorer than
when he came there. His name is
John Huffman, of Bluffs, Demo-
crat as it chances, but an honest man.
Huffman, 1t is said. had chances to
make not less than $4,000 by voting
for the Doodle bills which came before
the legislature in great RATS from Chi
cago, but he steadily declined to sell
himself, and all through the session he
sat stolidly in his seat and voted reg
ularly against each and all of these
snake bills.
And yet Huffman needed money. At
home he is only a farm laborer earn
ing his $25 a month and keep" Says
the Chicago Times Herald: when the
noisy crew of thieves flushed with in
science and wine, left Springfield to
spend in barroom or brothel the wages
of their infamy John HUFFMAN, Of
Bluffs, God bless him. returned to
Scott county to earn his daily bread

lature was not all dishonest There

IN DIR. Ruiz's assassination which can
not be so lightly adjusted. This man.
an American citizen, was kept in prison
far beyond the time limit permitted
by our treaty stipulations with Spain.
Not only was injury of the EXTREMIST
character done to him and to his, but
deliberate affront was offered to the
United states. The affront cannot be
wiped out by money. 1t is not matter
for arbitration or parley. 1t must be
explicitly and publicly apologlzed for
Spain must acknowledge her regret
for the incident and give satisfactory
assurance that there will not be a rep
etition of the offence. This govern
ment cannot accept less than this with
on. forfeiture Of it's self-respect Pres
ident Mckinley will not waive this
requirement without hurt to his pres
tige and disappointment to every man
who cast vote for his election.
If this were Spain's first transgres-
sion Of the letter and spirit of her
treaty with us; if 1t were established
that the close confinement of Ruiz in
excess Of the allowable limit was the
work OF an ignorant subordinate
and If in her past treatment of Ameri-
can citizens in Cuba there were, with
this one exception, uniform evidences
OF courtesy and consideration, the
United States could with propriety rest
it's case after the surviving relatives
of this unfortunate man should have
been neasurably compensated for his
untinely death. But when it is re-
mcmbered that the whole attitude CT
Spain toward American credentials
of citizenship had been one of system
atically practiced contempt, frequently
coupled with wanton aggression and
outrage until, with the advent of the
Mckinley administration into power,
fear induced a change, the Ruiz case
takes on an aspect which admits no
compromise. Spain has held us to the
letter Of our obligations in the matter
of the prevention of filibustering along
our coasts. Let Spain now be held rig
idly to the limit Of hers.
Madrid advices say the American
embassy there is in danger of attack
from the incensed populace. Let us
hope that the attack will be made. The
time has come for a definite under
standing between Spain and the United
States.

Years Work in the High School.

1t is proper on this occasion, mark
ing as it does the close of the first
year of the new Scranton high school,
to offer public testimony to the superb
ority of the school appointments and
accommodations, and to the very efii-
cient character of the instruction
which the present organization OF the
faculty has impaired. To appreciate
properly the quality of the high school
building would require an examination
of the buildings of it's class in other
cities of corresponding size. Personal
observation covering many other high
schools has not disclosed a-better one;
and If one exists its rarity Is good
testimonial to the merits OF the local
structure. The first years use of the
building has disclosed few defects and
innumerable points of excellence. IL
it could be constructed over again 1t
is doubtful If it could be made per-
ceptibly better. In point both OF utility
and beauty it is well nigh a model edi-
flee of it's kind; and those who were
charged with its erection may right
fully feel proud of the issue of their
pains and plans.
Concerning the work which has been
done within the building since its dedi-
cation, account must be taken of the
fact that what was in many respects
q new combination of educational tall
ent had to be formed, trained and
brought to an effective basis in a very
short period, while at the same time
a new classification of studies, with
a general broadening of the scope OF
the curriculum, had to be formed and
put into practical operation. When
due allowance is made for these cir
cumstances, we think it is simply just
to say that the achievements wrought
in this initial year have been most
creditable to instructors and pupils
aroused and sustained: the spirit of
emulation has been excited along le-
gitimate lines and fine start has been
made in the direction of literary and
forensic work which the coming year
will materially surpass. Altogether,
there has been a quickening of the
pulse of the school room that bodies
happily for future results in this cul-
minating department of the local pub
lie school system; and to the directing
sors Howell and Phillips, the people
of the community are indebted per-
haps more than they know.
