Marry or Pay,

The wise legislators of the Ar
gentine republic have been much
troubled about providing a popula-
tion for their large and fertile
country, They have decided to
provide a remedy by making mar
riage almost compulsory,
A law has been introduced, the
first clause of which reads "On
and after the lst day of January,
1897, every male from the age of
twenty to eighty shall pay a tax
till he marries, and shall pay it
once in every month
The next clause Is more severe,
and reads; young celibates of
either sex, who shall without legitl'
mate motive reject the addresses of
him or her who may aspire to her
or his hand, and who shall continue
contumaclously unmarried shall
pay the sum OF 800 piastres for the

parture is being done to bring back
by-gone memories of minstrelsy.
In the days when we were boys
and girls the songs of the sweet
singers were of melody and harmo.

Henshaw Was Formerly a Minstrel.

John E, Henshaw, than whom
there is no greater favorite in the
United States never was intended
for the theatrical profession. He
was born in Albany, New York,
some 56 years ago, and when quite
a lad had a chance to join Harry
Robinson's Minstrels. He found
that he had decided talent for the
minstrel business, and eventually
became an end man with Cal. Wag-
ner's Minstrels, and afterwards
with the famous California Min
strels By gradual degrees howev-
er he abandoned the "burt cork"
and played on the variety stage in
varlous sketches until 1886, when
he took out farce comedy, "The
Two Old Cronies," which was very
successful, His present comedy,
"Ihe Nabobs," was launched about
six years ago and has served to
make him one of the most popular
comedians on the stage today, He
is very ambitions and it is likely
that inside of year will see him at
the head OF the extravaganza busl-
ness of this country, His methods
are easy his manner graceful and
Lis singing voice excellent, He is
extremely popular of the stage and
among his own profession there is
no actor or actress held in higher
esteem than is Mr. Henshaw, He

THE OBJECTION NOT GOOD.

There are people who have objections
TO advertising matter in the columns OF
a newspaper. The ground OF objection
Is that they do not want to read ad-
vertisements. Now this objection is not
good, for oftentimes these advertise
ments convey valuable Information.
For instance. how else would the trav-
cling public learn ot the excellent din
ing car service OF the Wisconsin Cen

The way some Of the agencies OF the

serves the severest reprobation by decent
members OF that great organization. or
course the bombastic and lying reports
sent out on night before last about this
governments ''uitimatum" to the Madrid
authorities are contradicted by last
nights official advices from Washington.
but the Junta has got in its work Just
the same; and thousands OF jingoes and
fools within and without congress will
be encouraged TO so on with an agitation
designed to force some form OF hostile
action on the part OF the administration.
Fortunately for the country, we are just
now represented by president 'and other
executive officers who while fully capable
Of sustaining the dignity and enforcing
proper respect for the United States in
any emergency. are, at the same time,
sufficiently acquainted from personal ex-
perience with the horrors and realities Of
war to resist all attempts to force US
into any such complication with Spain
or any other country except upon actual
and adequate provocation. This country
doesn't want any war with Spain about
Cuba. and there isn't the slightest pres
ent danger that we will have one. The
lives and Industrial efforts Of any hun
dred country pumpkins in any rural COM
munity in the land are worth more to US
in these days of restored prosperity than
the lives and petty ambitions Of all the |

plying the torch and butchering Spanish /
soldiers in pursuit of the license which
is miscalled liberty in tho island or

Secretary OF Agriculture Wilson is GER
tanily the right man in the right place
He is showing that he holds his cabinet
portfolio. not as a politician, but as a
farmer for the benefit Of the farmers.
Conditions have changed in agriculture
within the past thirty years, quite as
radically as they have in all other indus
tries. The old routine methods are no
longer successful, and the men who ad-
here TO them can not expect to make
money on the farm. The modern farm
er must be a man If business. 1t needs
the same correct judgment, the same
foresight, the same qualities, to make
successful farmer these days as it does
to make a successful manufacturer or
business man. The modern farmer should
BE- good business man. He must study
soils, and fertilizers, and the capabilities
and limitations of his own farm. He
must study markets and crop reports
and diversity his industry to meet coming
conditions. The old, ignorant prejudice
against book farming" Is passing away.
and that of necessity. Secretary Wilson
is doing a noble work in rousing the
agriculturists TO a realization Of the needs
Of modern farming and in assisting them
to gain the Knowledge OF methods and
improvements requisite to success.
