BY THE capture of the Philippine
Islands, another complication will have
been introduced into the already tangled
Eastern situation, and the United States
will become a powerful factor in the far
East. Not long ago the London Specta.
tor said that ga great maritime power
holding the Philippines ought to be
mistress in the far Fast; and which is it
to be? America will be the owner OF
the islands, but she will not want to
keep them, thus giving hostages to all
the maritime empires" In the main
this is true. The 100000 or. 10, ZOO, 900
population of the Philippines are largely
Asiatic, and the task of governing them
would not be accepted by this country.
But if the islands fall into our hands we
shall retain a harbor there and have a
voice in. their disposition. Japan i ssaid
to have once offered $500, OOO, 600 for the
Philippines. The London Journal re-
marks that there will be fierce bidding
for the group, and fierce je%alousies ex.
cited among those who bid. But the
United States alone is bearing the cost
and other burdens of the wal that is ex-
pected. to wrest them from Spain, and
no nation can undertake to shoulder ue
aside after the expenditure of our blood
and treasure. Great Britain, Russia,
Germany, France and Japan are firmly
seated on the eastern coast of Asia, and
look to the future for great commercial
advantages in that region, the most
populous or earth, and the one most in
need of industrial development. The
aggregate area of the islands is nearly
double that of Missouri, aud their trop-
ical fertility is unsurpassed in the world.
Sugar, tobacco, hemp and fruits grow
in great abundance, and the demand for
all products is ample. But Spanish in
fuences and taxation have kept the ma.
tives miserably poor and ignorant. They
have had no incentive to work, and
progress of all kinds has been, discoufs
aged. The same causes of insurrection
have long existed in the Philippines and
Cuba. Labor has had neither reward
nor respect, and official authority has
been in the hands of officials who looted
merchants and peasants alike, making a
commodity of justice and standing i'll
the way Of all real progress. Destiny
has placed upon the United States the
necessity of fighting the oppressor in
the Philippines.

alone that b protest finally presented
to the president was mild and pacific in
its nature. /
In short, the part played by Great
Britain was SO important that every
effort to show appreciation was put forth
by the highest officials of the state de-
partment. Senator Hansbrough was
summoned to the department. to discuss
the modification OF withdrawal of the
proposed Objectionable legislation. He
and his fellow-senators were found will
ing to meet the department in every
way. They realized, as well as the state
department officials, the value OF British
sympathy and %friendliness in the war
with Spain.
AS the action of the Canadian senate
had removed the threatened monopoly,
the way to an harmonious settlement
was clear. First of all, it was agreed
that the goods should go from Fort
Wrangell or any other place in bond to
any point in Canada. An agreement
was also reached that American miners
who might have to travel around by the
Yukon river from American soil through
the northwest territory back to Alaska
again should be allowed to carry their
goods in bond without breaking bulk.
Canadian miners are to have the same
privilege in traversing any part of Alas
ka. More than this, it was agreed that
the law which compels d British miner
to forswear his allegiance to his country
before he can begin operations in the
United States should be repealed, so
that now British subjects will come into
the Alaskan region and return to their
homes without having become natural
lied American citizens. This is proba-
bly, the greatest concession which Great
Britain has obtained through her friend
Illness to the United States.
The great question which concerns
New England, the shipping of fish, is
also to be arranged without friction.
The bill. when the conference report is
made to the senate, will be found to
contain a clause providing that when
the Dominion government shall have
appointed three commissioners, the pres
ident is to do likewise. These commits
sioners are ito formulate and consider
a plan for the final settlement of the
North Atlantic fishery question and any
other matters which will enhance the
friendly relations existing between the
United States and Great Britain in re-
spect to commercial and trade interests
on the American continent"
1t is this final clause which is the
most important. 1t is a notice to the
world that the two countries will stand
together, and it has met the cordial ap-
prevail of the president and Secretary
Day. It is known that the Dominion
government will promptly appoint it's
three commissioners and the president
will also act promptly. It is expected
that when the six commissioners have
been appointed they will begin a diplo-
matte conference for the purpose of paw
ing the way for the appointment of the
high joint commission, the result of
which will be the satisfactory settlement
of all disturbing questions.

Famous Hymn Written In Fifteen

Safe in the Arms of Jesus is Fanny
Crosby's famous hymn-her iavorite out
OF the more than three thousand that

in fifteen minutes. One day w. H. Doane
called upon her-Miss Crosby told me
and said, i have forty minutes in which
to catch my train, and l want to take
with me the words to this music And
he hummed the melody. Can you do
it ? he asked. Miss Crosby replied, All

The Growth Of Women,s Colleges

Such gathering as that of the west
ern New York branch OF the Vassar Col
lege Alumna Association, held in But.
ialo recently, is interesting evidence of
the transformation which the last quar-
ter-century has witnessed in the matter
OF the higher education of women. A
meeting of that nature and size would
have been impossible before the seventies,
and not so many years before that it
would have been altogether undreamed
of, except by few enthusiastic women.
the pioneers in the higher. education
movement. Yet now such a gathering
causes no surprise, and it is taken as
matter OF course that single womans
college should be able to point to so
many of its daughters in western New
York alone.
A practical illustration OF what the
higher education OF women means is to
be found in Mrs. Ellen A. Richards, the
guest OF this gathering and a Vassar
graduate of the class OF 1870. Mrs.
Richards is member of the faculty OF
the Massachusetts Institute of Techno-
logy, the only woman in that body, and
1t was largely through her efforts that
the institute was opened to women.
She has made herself famous by her work
in sanitary and domestic science. The
sewage farm at Vassar is of her devsing
She is member OF the Massachusetts
Board OF Health and OF many scientific
societies. One oil her assistants, Miss
Wentworth vi Vassar, was sent for by
one OF the large hospitals at Chicago
about year and halt ago, to place It's
| dietary and its methods OF cooking on
scientific basis, and later she anu Mrs.
Richards were asked to do the same
work for the Massachusetts General
Hospital.
That higher education OF women does
not necessarily imply something different
from the higher education OF men, IN the
matter of scholarship, is shown in the
recent invitation OF the Phi Beta Kappa
fraternity to Vassar to organize a chap
ter of that society. This is the first in
| vitation OF the sort ever extended to
purely womans college. 1t tells its own
story OF the judgement OF that fraternity
upon the scholarship OF Vassar.- Bul-

Anarchlsm Not PecuIia to Italy.

Anarchism is not peculiar to Italy.
On the contrary, it was imported into
Italy about thirty years ago by Michele
Bakonnlne, and the Italian workmen
who abandon themselves most readily
to anarchy are those who live la
stranger. There is no nation which is
exempt from anarchy. Russia and Spain
are the countries from whence anarchist
propaganda originally proceeded. But
Germany, England, France, all have a
number of anarchists, Not even the
United States have been exempt from
contagion. Indeed, the anarchists OF
Chicago are among those who are most
admired by Italian anarchists, whose or
gans commemorate every year in No

dom OF their American brethren.- From

CHM anon, and pariait amour"
/ Ice-cream was first introduced at the
national capital by Mrs. Alexander
Hamilton. who had had it in her home
in New York. She used to tell with
amusement Of the delight with which
Pr sident Jackson first tasted it, and
how he promptly decided to have ices at
the Executive Mansion. Accordingly,
guests at the next reception were treat

,considerable fun to the initiated by the
reluctance with which they tasted it..
Those from the rural districts, especially,
first eyed it suspiciously, then melted
each spoonful with breath before con-
Stunning it. Their distrust was soon re-
moved, however, and plates were emp
tied with great rapidity.
The man who made the cream was,
oddly enough, negro by the name OF
Jackson, who, in the early part OF the
present century, kept small CONNECTION
cry store in Washington. Cold custards,
which were cooled after being made by
setting them on cake of ice, were very
fashionable, and Jackson, at Mrs. Hamil-
tons suggestion, lroze them by placing
the ingredients in tin bucket and COM
pletely covering it with ice. Each bucket
contained quart, and was sold Tor one
dollar. 1t Immediately became popular,
and the inventor soon enlarged his store,
and when he died left considerable for
