Getting Away From Care.

So far from being crazy or even eccen-
trio, that Mrs. Carson who spent the
last 10 years Of her life journeying back
and forth across the ocean was one Of
the sanest Of women. From all the wor-
ries and frets of housekeeping, house
cleaning, house repairing and tax pay
ing she was delivered. She had no vex-
ations with slovenly or dishonest sery-
ants; she had no family quarrels and no
fashionable callers. Month after month,
year after year, winter and summer,
rain Or shine, Mrs Carson followed the
fortunessof the big Gunarder Lucania
from the time it was launched till she
died, meyer missing trip.
Whatever cares or sorrows she ever
had she buried in the shining depths Of
the sweet, green sea. It's foam capped
waves rocked her to sleep at night; its
fresh, electric breezes quickened her
pulses by day. No wonder she loved the
sea, shining, glorious, ever changing.
What were fashionable receptions and
the jargon Of society and conventionality
to the grandeur, the everlasting peace
and Joy old ocean bestowed on her year
after year! No wonder the judges whom
her son-in- law endeavored to have pro-
nounce her insane refused to do so, but
aid she had right to spend her own
money as she pleased, even though she
had paid out $3.50, 900 Of it making
trips across the ocean in the Lucania.
Mrs. Carson not only showed good
sense and sanity and Judgment; she
showed remarkably good taste as well.

Treaty and Canal. {


H one fact looms up on the horizon Of
the twentieth century palmer than an
other, it is that the ship canal across
Central America must be completed
very soon. A second fact that should
dwell in the breast Of every American
citizen till it becomes a part Of his inner
conscio usness is that the United States
and no other nation shall have the man
agement and control Of that canal.
There seems a well grounded suspi.
cion that the warm feeling Of kinshiI
suddenly breaking out in Great Britain,
the urgent desire on her part for high
court Of arbitration which shall settle
all differences between this country and
herself, mean more than appears on the
surface. At least it is we'll for the
United States senate to consider very
carefully indeed whether the treaty now
before it can in any manner, directly OF
indirectly, give John Bull pretext fol
putting his finger into the pie Of the
Nicaragua canal If it does. let it be
amended or rejected altogether. So say
all the people Of this United States.
In 1856 there was entered into II
tween England and the United Sta
the SO called Clayton Bulwer treaty. It
contemplated even then the construction
of a canal across Ele isthmus, over
which canal the two countries should
have joint protectorate, the canal tc
be mutually constructed by them Both
countries agreed in addition that they
would never attempt to erect fortifica
lions or acquire territory for themselves
upon the isthmus.
The canal wSs never constructed.
England has violated the clause in
which she agreed not to erect fortifica-
tions or colonize in Central America.
The Clayton-BulWer treaty is, therefore,
q dead instrument. In fact, it aneve1
was anything else. Conditions have
changed since then; nations have
changed since then. For her own sake
and for the sake Of the weaker Latin
American republics in all the Americas
the United States must control til.
Nicaragua canal. Let our senate see I'd
it that England does not do US out of
that control.

The Sioux Indians are proving sue
cessful live stock men. The worst posi-
BILE Indian policy was that which fed up
the governments wards in idleness, per-
uniting them to run wild like savages
between the periods Of distribution of
supplies. At the Sioux agency, in the
arid part of the Indians lands, which
was fit only for stock grazing, a few
cattle were given to the heads Of fam
lilies as stock. These they were not al
lowed to sell till the increase amounted
to a given number. At the same time
the Indians were told that they might
raise cattle to fill the government beef
contracts This they did with such
alacrity that at the Pine Ridge agency
the red stockmen have brought in 600
beeves for sale.
