NrKINLCY'S REASONS.
MKINLEY'S KEASUNS.
wuy THE PRESIDENT WAS OPPOSED TO RECOG

WHY THE PRESIDENT WAS OPPOSED TO REcoG-
NITloN or THE CUBAN REPUBLIC.
Washington. April 20.--It was learned to-day
from an Administration source just why the
President was DESTROYS OF avoiding express rec
ognition Of the Cuban Republic. Aside from the
reasons that have been set forth in the debates
In Congress mostly based OF constitutional
questions there were two important practical
considerations that affected the Presidents
mind.
The first was purely military. He was salts
ned that the United States Army and the naval
forces would operate. in the event Of the recos-
milton OF the Cuban Republic. at a great dis
Advantage Instead Of moving under free rein
they would be obliged to treat with the officials
of the Cuban Republic at every step as equals
and allies. and Re believed they would be ham
pered thereby in their operations. As IT is. IN
case OF war. the Army Of the United States VIII
move under the orders Of the President and
commanding generals without regard TO the
wishes Of Cuban nsurgent officers.
Another consideration that affected the Pres'-
dent was the statement. based on prece1"nts.
that the conclusion OF peace at the termina-
t,on of hostil.ties would be complicated by the
preyious recognition the part OF the United
States Of the Cuban Republic. and treaty or
reace would It Is said, necessarily be drawn be-
tween Spain on the one hand and Cuba on the
other leaving the United States. which had
horne the brunt OF the fight without voice In
the peace arrangements.

NEGROES AND THE kLoNOIKE
The ColOred People Were Struck
Hard by the Ecker.


Perhaps you may not thing that the
klondike fever struck the colored peo-
pie down our way said Mr.. j. G. Hask-
ins, of South Carolina, to Washington
Post representative.
1t struck them hard, and the fever
ragged with great virulence, particularly
in Charleston, for quite period. 1t is
in oroer, however, to state that there
has been a great abatement of the
malady so far as the Senegambian ele-
ment of our town is concerned. The man
who would be rash enough to say 'klon-
dixie to lot of colored Charlestonians
would be in imminent danger of being
ripped open with a razor.
week or so ago there appeared in
Charleston one of the glibbest-talking
darkies that ever hit the old city. He
famed the rising excitement about the
gold fields of Alaska with cunning art,
and he held forth about the wealth to be
gathered just for the mere going after
II, till be had his audiences well-nigh
crazy. At the proper time he sprung
his scheme, which was nothing more
nor less than the organization of Klor-
dixie clubs for the sole and exclusive
benefit of the colored race. The negroes
had just as much right to the gold that
lay round loose up there as anybody,
and if they didn't avail themselves of
the glorious opportunity to become rich
they were the biggest fools on earth.
All they had to do was to join the clubs
and get an interest In the profits that
would accrue. The more money each
individual contributed the more would
be his share of the proceeds. and the pro-
| moter advised everybody to invest every
dollar that could be raised.
Well, those people fairly tumbled over
each other in subscribing to the Klon-
dixie enterprise. The sleek promoter
was in no hurry, but after several days
of fat collections he concluded he had
| worked his Charleston compatriots
sufficiently. and decamped for fresh
pastures. 1t is safe to say that his col
ored carcass wouldn't be worth a cop
per if ever he shows up in that COM
munity again. It was a great bunco
game. but it can't be worked twice il

BUYING ONE SHOE,

Legged Men.

Other People Do 1t Besides One.
Legged Men.
What does a man do for shoes when
be has only one leg, or his feet are not
mates2"
This question was thrust at a big
Market street shoe dealer, but it didn't
seem to bother him a bit, says the
Philadelphia Bulletin,
He comes in here and has his fee;
fitted just as easily as the ordinary
man." he said. 1T is a common oc-
currence in all shoe stores to have one
legged men as customers. We break :,
pair of shoes, sell the one required
and charge the customer a little moro
than half the cost of the complete pair
No, the odd shoes are not allowed to
accumulate. They would simply be
come incumberances. They are prompt
ly sent back to the factory and mates
made for them on the same last 1t i
not only for one-legged men that we
are thus compelled to break pairs. There
are lots of people in the world whose
feet are not mates. 1t is curious fact
that nearly every mans left foot is q
II iiiC larger tll0li Tie IlSul one, DtI uS
general thing this does not interfere
with correct fitting. In many cases.
however, we encounter men one of
whose feet are SO swollen by uorns, bun
ions, govt or some other affection that
he has to wear shoes of odd sizes. For
these customers it is necessary to breal
two pairs. both of which afterward have
their missing mates supplied at the
factory and go back into the general
stock"
