4 BEFORE BREAKFAST. ;

An Albany paper speaks thus of the
Yale musical clubs: yale came, saw,
and conquered. There were violets,
sweet violets, supposed by the poets to
be sweeter than all the roses, bloom
ing all over Albany's social realm yes
terday; Yale flags waving; Yale class
pins decorating the breast of the
maiden fair and bonny blue ribbons
tying her bonny brown curls. When
ever Yale comes to town to tnkle it's
gay mandolins and plin-plunk it's jolly
banjos and to sing the rollicking glees.
Albany society just opens every door
and is hospitable. Judges and state
dignitaries Of this dignified city once
tinkled banjos and sang songs them
selves, when they were Yale juniors
and young. In a score of households
in Albany there are sons or brothers,
cousins or nephews in Yale and as a
result Albany fairly beams on the gal
liant youths, teas them, suppers them,
dimes them, dances them, and sends
them on their way rejoicing"

She was a small woman and as laden
with bundles she dropped down in the
nearest corner of the street car, Mon

quaintance, across the aisle, remarked
in a tone tinged with curiosity:

little woman replied, from behind her

He was an elderly man; in fact, he
rather antedated the elderly man
usually seen nowadays, for his hair

back of his head. but he stood in front

the opening hats there displayed. No
woman with purse crammed with

critically the display in the milliner's

Scranton woman last evening in a tone

MORE THAN ONE MOON.
: something About Small Satellite
Which Is Little Known.

The earth has, it appears. more than
one moon revolving round 1t. The Lon
don Globe has an article on the exist
ence OF hitherto unsupported satellite
of the earth from the pen of the dis
coverer DR.. George Waltemath, of
Hamburg. One statement he makes is
to the effect that the motion OF our
satellite is somewhat quicker than 1t
ought to be, according to the laws of
gravitation. The Hamburg astronomer
tells the Globe readers that he made
an investigation of the records Of re-
markable spots seen before the sun
DR.. Ritter, for instance, when on board
a vessel, June II, 1855 on a voyage to
Naples. testifes having seen with bare
eyes and without the help of a tele-
scope, on the suns disc dark round
body, moving apparently horizontally
from the right to the left. The body
went through one-third part of the sun
In about two hours, or a little before
the suns setting A similar spot was
observed in 1862.
The astronomer after giving dates
and reasons for his belief, says he is
able to compute the orbit of the little
moon and it's dimensions to the utmost
eXactness. Its mean distance from the
earth is $4,000 miles, just 2-S of the
large moons distance. The amount Of
the diameter is 435 miles, the area
covers nearly 600, 900 square miles; that
is more than ten times the surface OF
England and Wales together. The sur
face of this second moon seems to re-
semble that Of the black meteorites
sometimes met with falling from the
skies, Its power Of rejecting the suns
light is so small that, as a rule. its
body will only be seen by the help of
a strong telescope.

ance of the meeting whenever he may
think proper. Even associations are
forbidden TO hold general meetings.
Such has been the case with the Asso-
citation of Planters and with the Asso-
citation of Artisans. Further yet, if a
Cuban wishes to hold a reception at his
house he must first obtain a license
and pay for it, otherwise there wHl be
trouble for him.
The Cubans are taxed every year to
the extent OF s25, 900 900 or $50, ,000, 900, o.
which only some 100000 is applied to
internal improvements in the island
when they are so applied, as a rule no
more than one-half or one-third of the
Fum is disbursed for that purpose. The
remainder Of the revenue is applied as
follows: Eleven million dollars to pay
interest on the debt of Spain; $1,000. 900
70 pay for the army and navy Of Spain,
and $S,000.000 for salaries to Spanish
employees in the island and out of the
island.
Is it any wonder they rebel?

WHY CUBANS REBEL.
Some OF the Reasons Why Spain Is
Unpopular.
From Boyce's Monthly.

From Boyce's Monthly.
No Cuban, whether man, woman or
child. can venture out of his house un-
less provided with a government IL
cense, which costs from twenty-five
cents to $50. If he does he is arrested.
Even the beggars are not exempted.
The Cubans do not enjoy personal
security. In the midst Of the most
profound peace and without any pro-
cess of law they may be arrested, cast
into prison, or deported. In December,
1880. General Polavieja had PCS persons
seized in Santiago, and Sagua de Tan
amo and deported them, without any
trial, to the penal colony of Fernando
Po, in the coast of Africa, there TO
perish by fever,
The Cubans do not enjoy freedom of
thought and expression. The news
paper writer's Cepeda and Lopez Bri-
mas were banlshed from the country
because they venrured to criticize the
government, while Senior Manuel A.
Balmaceda was tried by court marshal
in November, 1891, for having published
an editorial paragraph in relation to
the shooting OF the medical students in
1871. The newspaper FL Pals has been
suspended several times and the editors
subjected TO criminal proceedings for
having mildly pointed out glaring
abuses-on one occasion simply because
II called attention to the fact that the
son of the president of the Supreme
court was holding an office contrary to
law.
The Cubans do not enjoy the right OF
holding public meetings, They may
ask the authorities permission to do So
and II may be granted or refused. II

TWO NEW BUILDINGS.
The Work OF Erecting Them is Soon
TO Begin.

In the very near future the work of
erecting the big office building on Lin
den street, close to the board of trade
building, will begin. Work would have
begun before this If It was possible
for the persons who occupy the small
buildings on the site of the contem-
plated structure to vacate. They will
be able to move within the next ten
days, it ia thought, and then the one
story structure will come down to
make way for a modern ten-story
building.
WOrkmen began yesterday to tear
down the brick and stone building on
Spruce street, adjoining the Mears
building. The handsome new building
for the Scranton Savings and Trust
company is to be erected on the land.

TWO POINTED QUESTIONS AN
SEVERED.

What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor if you can
not get a better price for it?
Ans.-As there is 10 difference in the
price the public will buy only the better
so that while our profits may he small
er on a single sale they will be much
greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prominent
ly before the public both are certain to
be tried and the public will very quick
ly pass Judgment on them and use only
the better one.
