Regulating Tropical weather.

KANSAS 'lNy othi'
The report that the United States VIII es-
tablish weather stations in Cuba and the
West Indies is probably true, as the march
of the United States Is the Invasion OF in
telligence and improvement. Shortly after
the American occupation of Cuba more viii
be learned about the soil, climate, resources
and production, wind aud weather, land and
water, of Cuba than has even been known
before and the information will be freely
given to the world. The other West India
islands will become involved in the bench
cent vortex OF progress. 1t was a great day
for the West Indies when the United States
declared war on Spain.

Foreign-sorn Patriots.
Philadelphia Press

Foreign nations have argued because the
American people are so congloEerate, many
of them being Of alien birth and mauy others
of alien parentage. and because the country
is so large and the interests OF different sec
lions are SO diverse, that there could be no
true national spirit. This tact. 1t was
claimed. would become embarrassingly
prominent in a war with a foreign nation.
That situation is now present, but Instead
Of there being any lack OF national spirit and
patriotism exactly the contrary is evident.
The foreign born citizen is just as patriotic
as the man who can date his ancestry back
TO the Mayiower.

We understand our Omaha friends will
have an Irish Day among the other festive
days scheduled on the exposition program
and we trust the citizen constituency viii
be well represented. We especially notify
our eastern brethren that the United States
extends very far beyond the Adirondacks,
and it is a good time for our New England
and New York brethren to shake of the
rust OF their proyincialism and try a Whit
Of wholesome Nebraska air, incidentally call
ing on their Chicago friends on their way
to and from the TTansmississippi Exposition.
They will see many beautiful objects of in

interesting as those stalwart men and hand
some women OF the great west, who don't
forget the little Isle of the Sea whence their
fathers emigrated to make the desert bloom
as a garden, and help to build up our glori-
Gus country. We hope a great and well
organized effort will be made for a grand
Irish dav at the Transmississippi Exposition.
We can say In advance that our Omaha
brethren will make their visitors almost i'm

COOPERATION IN MISSIONS.


In view of the readiness of the
churches to push their work into every
new mission field and to take advan-
tage of every fresh opportunity for eX-
tending their influence to all parts of
the world it is not surprising that the
American mission boards are already
preparing to increase their activity in
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines.
Fortunately there is Il growing DISPOSE
ton to be unusually sensible in the mat
ter of preparation. The board of for
eign missions of one of the leading de-
nominations last week decided that 1.-The
Christian people of America should i'm
mediately and prayerfully consider the
duty of entering the door which God in
His providence is thus opening" but in
view of the fact that other foreign mis-
sion boards are considering the same
| question a conference of all the general
foreign mission boards was earnestly
recommended. This action was taken on
a committee report which declared II a
1t would be quite unfortunate If several
boards should enter any one of the fields
named at the same time, thus unneces-
sarily duplicating expenses and perhaps
introducing elements of rivalry. Division
of the field or distribution of the work
among he several boards is recognized
as the right way to prevent waste OF
energy and clashing of interests.
The necessity for cooperation in mis-,
sion work, both at home and in foreign
lands, became apparent long ago, but
not until within recent years has it been
possible to hope for general cooperation
among the churches. Rivalry is strong
between them in their principal work
and it was natural that this rivalry
should be extended all through their
missionary efforts. But good men have
seen great evils following this rivalry
when carried to those new in the Chris
tian faith. At last they have induced
church leaders to put away rivalries
where 1t is better to be found working
together in n common cause. Co-opera
ton in missions marks another step il
the broadening process to which thu
churches have been subjected.

1mrRnCM LIE nnMEN.

The American women are making
much of the opportunity afforded by the
club movemen for enlarglng their
sphere of activity and making greater
use of their energies. The reports made
at the Denver convention show that a
large proportion both of the clubs and
of the state declarations nave been or
ganized within the last biennial period.
There are 595 of the clubs directly con.
nected with the federation, having n
membership of GO,O00, and in the thirty
one state declarations there are 2,llO
clubs with a total membership Of $780,
600. The next decade promises still
greater triumphs for those engaged in
fulthcring the club movement.
The women associated in these clubs
are generally pledged to mutual i'm
provement and to the betterment of hu
mainly along literary, educational
philanthropic, economic and financial
lines. 1t is a broad platform, and 1t Il
yet too soon to determine how mucl
good may come from Vt or to judge how
closely TO its essential principles tn,
women are adhering. 1t is CHARACTERISED,
of these women's clubs that they ar,
organized for useful purposes ald no
to afford pastime and in this they diffe
from many of the mems clubs. TIL,
club women have planned well and m,
aiming at that which Is good for them
selves and for the human race and Their
is every reason to believe that they vii
be grandly successful in their work, s.
well started in the right direction.
Even though the American clul
women fall far short of attaining thei
ideals in club work, even though the,
accomplish little more than self improve
ment, they are deserving of encourage
ment. The club movement is great o
itself and greater in its possibilities.

Hot Weather Philosophy.

One way 10 get through the bot weather
without suffering so much from its evil ef-
fects is not to worry about it. Half the in
convenience of the summer season is due to
the amount OF Worrying people do over con-
ditions that areiinevftable and things that
are determined to look after themselves ann
have their own way. Talking about the
heat doesn't make the weather any cooler
aud fretting about it doesn't make it any
easier to bear.
