Puerto Rico, appears a single black
print of human hand If The ma
tive be questioned, writes John
Hamilton Thatcher in Harpcr's
Weekly, he responds with a sidelong
glance and finger on his lip.
"El mano negro" he whispers.
One learns that the dreaded token
on the door, the black hand, is the
precursor ofla masked band coming
by night to leave a record of it's visit
written with torch and machete. He
hears of a woman and child hacked
with knives and left for dead an the
Lares Road; of plantation owner,
aged and infrm, beaten and tortured,
his ears cut off, and finally, in the
presence of his son, hung from a
rafter in his house. He sees traces
of pillage.and arson.a Some of these
crimes.are part of the outlawry
that must needs attend the close of
war. In most cases, however,
what he sees is merely a rude bal
ancing of accounts. =. The sitems on

Moresnet is at about equal distance

In the thousand odd houses which CONF
pose the state comfort and plenty reign.
IL is administered by a council of ten
members, under the presidency OF q
burgomaster or mayor. Belgium and
Germany are represented there by
commissaries, who maintain their re-
spective rights over the territory. They,
however, never interfere in the direc-
tion of home affairs, and the double
! protectorate is, therefore, only formal.
1t is merely stipulated that the COM
missaries may use their authority in
the settlement Of difficulties should
any arise, which. to the honor of
Moresnet, is very rarely the case. Some
body has said: Happy are the peoples
who have no history" This may
truly be said Of the little state whose
existence is threatened.
The burgOmaster, under the control
of the ten members who assist him,
concentrates in his hands all the public
| powers Legislative, executive, military
etc. 1t is he. too, who administers JUS
tice, which does not appear to be y
a very solemn affair." If we are to be-
lieve what is said by a traveller who
visited the country twelve years ago.
| He found the burgomaster and his
councillors in a small tavern, where
while smoking their pipes and drink
ing their beer. they delivered judgment
on the complaints brought before
them.

CHICAGO. Feb. 2.-Seven acting po-

rank of patrolmen to make room for
civil service eligibles certified TO Chief
Of Police Ripley by the civil service
commission. This action was some-
what Of a surprise. The responsibility
OF the civil service commission ceases
after having certified the eligibles, and
it was in the power Of Chief Ripley to
retain his captains by ignoring the elig-
ible list. Mayor Harrison. it is said.
gave peremptory orders that the civil
service law should be observed.
