LITTLE Billie Williams, Congress
man Brumm's private secretary, ac-
knOwledges in open court that he did
not vote for the Republican candi-
dates for Poor Director and Judge in
1895. This is frank admission from
Republican oflice-holder. Surely
there can be no complaint from that
quarter should other Republicans
this year decide to ''cut their ticket
for Congress, for instance.

A New York Hotel Murder.

New York, Aug. 17.-Emeline C.
Reynolds, a young unmarried woman,
about q years Of age, was found mur-
dered in the Grand hotel, at Thirty
first street and Broadway, In this city,
yesterday. Her death had evidently
resulted from repeated blows on the
head with a piece of lead pipe. After
some hours of investigation, and upon
statements given by the mother of the
dead girl, DR.. Samuel j. Kennedy, a
young dentist of this city, was ar
rested and is being held upon suspicion
of the murder. The fact that not only
the murdered woman was robbed, but
another robbery was committed on the
same floor incline the police to the
belief that the woman was killed in an
attempt to prevent robbery.

Lotteries IN Old Havana.

''Life and Society in Old Cuba" is
the title Of an article in the Century,
made up OF extracts from the journals
of Jonathan s. Jenkins, written in
1859. Mr.. Jenkins says:
In Havana the strangers attention
is arrested by the vendors of lottery
tickets, who stand on the street COR
ners with pair of shears in one hand
and sheets Of lottery tickets in the
other, ready to cut off any number for
buyers. They are very adroit, and
are apt to persuade the credulous that
they will draw fortune in the
scheme. These licensed lotteries are
one OF the great evils there, especially
to the Spanish people, who seem to
be born gamblers, and for whom the
chances Of dice, cards and lottery
tickets appear to have an irresistible
charm, all classes In Havana dealing

The curious fact is noted that il
Cuba should ever become an independ-
ent republic it twould be the sole island
in the world to possess separate ma
tional existence. Madagascar has be-
come French, and japan is an archi-
pelago. This seems to show that is
olated tracts do not get ON we'll alone.
Tiny countries, walled in by mountain
barriers, like Montenegro and Swift
zerland, retain independence, but the
ocean is less sure protection than
mountain walls. Even Iceland is a
dependency Of Denmark still. An
island would seem more advantageous
spot for maintaining a national exist
ence than such territory as Belgium
and Holland, but both countries are
in fair way to retain independence ce
permanently.

Men now living will ride by rail
from Cairo to Cape Town. Then civ
ilization will set in all along the rail
way. Towns will spring up in salu-
brious spots, and in some not salu-
brious, where money is to be made.
The telegraph, the telephone and the
electric motor will spread out on both
sides, and the "unexplored country"
of the biographies of generation ago
will hum with the activities of modern
life.
