The Objection to Recognition.

TO the classes, however, our reccg-
milton OF the Cuban republic is obiec-
tionable. The reason has been express
ed by Attorney General Griggs of New
Jersey, the young man who advised
the president that if we were to recog-
nize Cuba, and hereafter disconnected
Californians. aided by filibustering
Mexicans, were to resist the United
States and lead her armies chase
through the mountains, Mexico might
recognize them as an Independent ma
ton upon the authority of our own
precedent. Attorney General Griggs
objected to recognizing the independ-
ence Of the Cuban republic because it
does not represent the taxpayers"
and property owners Of Cuba; and
that is one, at least, Of the reasons why
Mark Hanna objects. That this in
turn is one Of the presidents reasons
for Directing, may be fairly inferred
from the way in which Hanna has fit
ted In and out Of the war consultations
at the white house. In word, this
objection to recognizing Cuban inde-
pendence is a class objection The
Public.

MR.. AsToR's QUARTER MILLION FOUNTAIN.
Group 1.-The first group of figures
which forms a part of this fountain is
on the end of the shell nearest the
entrance gates. This group, made of
the finest and whitest Sicilian marble,
consists of the heroic sized figure of a
woman with Cupid. The right hand
of the figure is outstretched. In it
she holds over the basin by the handle
a small Greek vase, from which the
water pours. Her left hand falls by
her side. Standing at her left side is
a figure of little Cupid, naked, with
wings, looking up into her face. The
work is pronounced by sculptors to be
surprisingly beautiful.
Group 2.-This consists of a woman
and a Cupid, both standing and pledg-
ing each other in drinking cups. The
figures are large and of the finest ST.
Gillian marble.
Group 3.-This group consists of a
woman leaning back, with a Cupid
bending over her from rock.
There is no fountain in England ri
valling this one of Mr.. Astor's in size
and beauty, and it is even said by
architects that as work of art, and
considering it's size, it is the finest
fountain in the world. This fountain
has already cost, according to moder-
ate estimates, a great deal more than
fifty thousand pounds.

THE STEAMSHIPS CHIMNEY.
Some Details of Interest Regarding
It's Construction and Use-


The stroller along the wharves who
should see rising from the smokestack
of big steamer a small, and at the
start, perfectly defined, column of
smoke, which seemed to come from
a small smokepipe within the big one,
might wonder if the great smokestack
was filled with smaller stacks, one for
each boiler. AS matter of fact it is
not so filled; but there is within it one
smaller smoke pipe, called the donkey
stack, which is the chimney for the
boiler of the donkey engine, which is
used when the vessel is in port
in hosting cargo in and out. 1t Is
from this pipe that the small column
of smoke is seen to issue.
The donkey stack is placed some
times against the forward inner side OF
the big stack, sometimes against the
after inner side. 1t may be COM
plete pipe, or it may be formed of iron
in the shape of half pipe, with
fianges riveted to the main pipe.
If a single one of the larger boilers
were used, as it might be when the
ship is in port, it might be connected
with the donkey stack, but in their
regular and common arrangement and
use the uptakes of all these boilers run
into the great chimney, whose whole
interior is open, except for the braces
running across it to strengthen and
support it,

sells as well, are built double, with an
inner and an outer shell, with a space
between varying according to the size
of the vessel; it may be from five to
= ten inches. The primary purpose OF
this chamber around the smokestack
is to afford ventilation for the engine
room and the stoke hole. In at least
one modern passenger ship ventilating
pipes from the passenger quarters have
been carried to these chambers. In
cidentally the space between the shells
helps to keep the stack slightly, for thus
constructed, the chimney is cooler on
the outside than it would otherwise be.
and so it holds paint the better.

The Fountain of Love.

Mr.. William Waldorf Astor's new
fountain for Cliveden, his estate near
London, is the largest private fountain
of the kind in the world. 1t is gor-
geous and of enormous expense, and
the only fountain which rivals it in
size and appearance is that of Emper-
or William in Berlin, the next largest
of the kind being at Moscow.
Mr.. Astor, who expects that this
fountain will astonish the people when
it is exhibited, has called it "The
Fountain of Love-" The shell alone
weighs between sixty and seventy tons
This gigantic shell is made of nine
pieces of the finest Sienna marble, and
is light brown in color, but the huge
blocks have been so skillfully put to-
gether that it is almost impossible to
see the joins. The nine pieces of Sien-
ma marble out of which the shell is
made are the largest blocks of Sienna
marble ever taken out of Italy. Like
large cut diamonds, they represent an
enormous waste of material.
The fountain in its architectural fea-
lures represents the development OF
one idea. 1t is practically simple and
devoid Of ornate carving, excepting in
the three groups.

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine,
and as such it is not liable to any form of
disease except by Que of two ways. The
first way is from imperfect action of the
kidneys. The second way is from care
less local treatment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
news is tie chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the bladder,
was created for one purpose, and If not
doctored too much is not liable to weak
ness or disease, except in rare cases. 1t
is situated back of and very close to the
bladder, therefore any pain. disease or
inconvenience manifested IN the kidneys.
back, bladder or urinary passage is often,
by mistake, attributed to female weak
ness or womb trouble of some sort The
error is easily made and may be easily
avoided. To find out correctly. set
your urine aside for twenty-four hours;
sediment or settling indicates kidney or
bladder trouble. The mild and the ex-
