Among all the pirates who have fig-
ured in history, legend or song there 10
one whose name stands pre-eminent in
America as the typical hero Of the
dreaded black flag. The name Of this
man will instantly come to the mind OF
almost every reader, for when we speak
of pirates we usually think of Captain
Kidd
In fact however, Captain Kidd was
not a typ al pirate. for in many ways
he was different FIR l the or dinary ma
rine freebooter. especially when we con-
slider him in relation TO our own coun-
try All other pirates who made them
selves notorious on our coast were
known as robbers. pillagers and ruth
less destroyers of life and property. but
Captain Kidd's fame was of another
kind We do not think of him as u
pirate who came TO carry away the
property of American citizens, for near
ly all the stories about him relate TO his
arrival at different points on our shores
for the sole purpose of hiding the rich
treasures which he had collected in 9TH
er parts of the world.
This could not fail TO make Captain
Kidd most interesting parsonage, and
the result has been that he has been
lifted into the region Of legendary ro-
nance. There are two Captain Kidds-
the Kidd of song and story, and the
other the Kidd of fact. Frank r.

MILES ISSUES A PROCLAMATION.
Tells the Porto Rico Inhabitants What We
Are There For.

Another dispatch from Ponce says
that Genral Miles has issued the follow
ing proclamation:
I'm the prosecution Of the war against
the kingdom Of Spain by the people Of
the United States, in the cause Of lib
erty, justice and humanity, its military
forces have come to occupy the island
of Porto Rico. They come bearing the
banner Of freedom, inspired by a noble
purpose 10 seek the enemies Of our gov
ernment and Of yours. and to destroy
or capture all in armed resistance. They
bring you the fostering arms Of a free
people, whose greatest power is justice
and humanity TO all living within their
fold. Hence they release you from your
former political relations. and il is
hoped that this will be followed by your
cheerful acceptance Of the government
OF the United States.
"The chief object Of the American
military forces will be TO overthrow the
armed authority Of Spain and give the
people of your beautiful island the larg-
est measure OF liberty consistent with
this military occupation. They have not
come to make war on the people OF the
country, who for centuries have been
oppressed; but on the contrary they
bring protection not only to yourselves
but to your property, promote your
prosperity and bestow the immunities
and blessings Of our enlightened and
liberal institutions and government.
1T is not their purpose to interfere
with the existing laws and customs
which are wholesome and beneficial 10
the people. so long as they conform 10
the rules Of the military administration,
sorder and justice, This is not war of
devastation and desolation, but one TO
give all within the control Of the mill
tary and naval forces the advantages
and blessings Of enlightened civiliza-
tion "

French Local Papers.

The French local papers are the
merest rags, conducted in many cases
by people who appear to be totally
ignorant of everything that goes on out
side their own department The result
is that the most extraordinary state.
ments appear. In paper local to the
Riviera there once appeared the an.
nouncement:
"Cowardly attempt on the life Of a
president Mr.. Jameson has been ar
rested for the attempted assassination
of M. Johannes Burg, the president of
the Transvaal republic. This was at
the time of the Jameson raid.
This same paper recently noted the
arrival Of Lady Killarny'' ON the Ri
viera and added that Lady Killarney"
was daughter of the Prince of Wales
who had married an Irish nobleman of
high rank and had been obliged TO re-
nounce all her royal rights in order to
do So This was why she did not go to
the same place as the queen or the
Princess of Wales. Lady killarney"
was the Duchess of York
Another French local paper of equal
standing once announced that Lord
Balfour, president of the Liberator club
and son -in-law of Lord Salisbury" had
been imprisoned by "Sir Gladstone" in
the Tower of London. London Graphic.

Swallowing Salt Water.

One of the most beneficial features OF
sea bath is the salt water inadvertent-
ly swallowed by bathers. 1t is won.
derful tonic for the liver, stomach and
kidneys. In many cases it will cure
biliousness when all drug preparations
have failed. 1t is peculiarly effective in
ordinary cases of indigestion, disordered
stomach and insomnia, and has been
known TO produce excellent results in
many cases of dyspepsia.
Clean sea water is full of tonic and
sedative properties. 1t won't hurt any
body. Indeed, two or three big swal-
lows of it would be of positive benefit
TO nine bathers out of ten. 1t is not of
course palatable or tempting dose to
take, but neither is quinine nor calomel.
You seldom if ever see an old sailor
who is bilious or dyspeptic or victim
to insomnia, and why? For the reason
that an ocean of good medicine spreads
all about his sky, and he doses himself
copiously with it whenever his physical
mechanism becomes the least bit de.
ranged. d.-Washington Star.

Tennessee Assurance.

In March, 1896, the sheriffs Of the
territory which is now Tennessee took
a census Of their own, and as there were
60, 600 citizens of proper age the terri
tory declared itself state. proceeded TO
choose governor, congressman and
legislature, which selected two United
States senator's. Congress, then in ses-
sion III Philadelphia, had received nc
information regarding the action III the
territory until congressman and sena-
tors walked in unlimited and announced
that a state had been born, had elected
its officers made its laws and was run.
ming on scheduled time.
Congress was disconcerted and noti
fed the applicants that the sheriff s
census was irregular and they must
wait at least for an invitation before
they proceeded TO sit at the federal ia
ble. Upon second thought congress de-
cided TO be courteous. and OH June
admitted Tennessee, nearly three months
after she had become n state by her own
action. This state, 10 coming into
the Union was a little previous, was
the third state in the Union TO provide
president for the Union and the first
outside the original l3, and with one
Ohio and the James ever to furnish a
president, and she has provided three,
more than any other state except New
York, Virginia and Ohio. - Boston

Sun and Weather.

On the lst of July the earth receives
6 per cent less heat from the sun than
it does during corresponding period
in the month of January. But winter
does not occur then in the northern
hemisphere, because the sun runs high
in the sky and its rays fall upon the
earth more nearly vertically than six
months later, and, too, the day is much
longer than the night. so that while
the sun sends Us little less heat in to-
tai amount we get much larger pro-
portion OF what it does give us than we
do in January, when the total heat for
the whole earth is greater. New York
