THE ATTITUDE OF CONGRESS- on
THE CUBAN QUESTION.

Says the Winston /0utNaE
Perhaps the world has never before
presented the sorry spectacle that the
United States now affords Senators
on the floor of Congress compelled to
withhold the name Of our public off,
GERS to prevent their assassination by
the cut-throat Williams and thugs Of a
decrepit, barbarIc, sixlh-1ate power .
Senator Foraker makes these charges,
and as they go unchallenged we are
constrained to believe them. Bat as
bad, hunlllatlng as that may be, it is
not the worst feature Of the deplorable
situation. That a Secretary of State,
an ad mi nlStIatIOn of an American
President, could so into Co-paftner-
ship with the most tyranlCal, cruel and
blood thirsty nation on earth for the
suppression of heroic people, by the
most horrible means that the devlish
ingenuity of cruelty and cowardice
could invent, nothing but the cleverest
evidence could ever have made any
one believe. That evidence is before
US in the written statement of the
Span ish Minister, and nothing that
Mr.. Olney ever did or ever can do,
will wipe it out. Now that this tale
of perlidy and dishonor is before the
public, something must be done. That
our President IS too weak and vaCila-
ting to desire to do anything, his late
message on the Cuban situation de-
monstrates, but the Will of the people
is superior to the reluctance of Pres
ident, and the time has now come
when this country must put stop to
further outrage upon American rights,
and if Spain does not like it she Will
have TO help herself as best she can.
End the war in Cuba if il takes war TO

AN ECCENTRIC GENIUS.
A LIFE OF RICHARD BURTON.

THE TRUE LIFE OF CAPTAIN SIR RICHARD
Written by his Niece, Georgana NJ. Sisted.
with the Authority and Approval Of the Burton
Family. PIP. XIV. il9. ID. Appleton Co.
One manifest advantage which this book mas
over the two-volume biography OF Sir Richard
Burton by Lady Burton is that it is written In
better English. 1t is compact, and on the
whole a readable. narrative But those who look
for a different Burton from the one somewhat
awkwardly depicted by Lady Burton VIII he dis
appointed. He is the same eccentric man OF
genius the same ma leap. the same irredeemable
humorist in these pages that ne was before.
His new bographer describes his habit OF telling
horrible tales on himself almost madden
ing" When he was In the humor for freak OF
this sort he usually selected some idiot who was
more malicious than cheerful. and into his ears
or hers as the case might he. poured some thrill
ing story about eating a boy. or shooting two or
three men for the fun OF the thing. or running
away with somebody's harem, all OF which was
duly treasured up to be told against him seri-
ously when /, was sure to do him the most harm.
To those who knew him well, or even to those
who read his books attentively enough to see
something between the lines. such stories would
have passed merely as jokes.
