Uses of

Immense fortunes have been made
out of the banana business. Reve-
nues do not accrue alone from the sale
of the fruit, for the leaves are used
for packing, the juice, being strong in
tannin, makes an indelible ink and
shoe backing, the wax found on the
under side of the leaves is a valuable
article Of commerce.; Manila hemp is
made from the stems, n of this
hemp are made mats, plated work
and lace handkerchiefs Of the finest
texture ;moreover the banana is ground
into banana flour. The fruit to be sold
for dessert is ripened by the dry heat
of flaring gas jets in the storage places
in which it is kept, and immense care
has to be taken to prevent softening or
overripening. The island of Jamaica
yields great crops of this useful and
money-making fruit.

rarest in Spain. Of course it is ridicu-
lous in the Spaniards to believe that the
United States would permit the sale of
the Philippines, but the fact that such a
proposition is made with a view to a eur
tailment of the national expenditure is
a step in the right direction. for until
now the universal cry has been ''the
integrity of the colonies must be main
tanned though Spain perish"
1t is plain, from the Madrid press
comment, that the loss of Cuba and
Puerto Rico is accepted as an accom-
plished fact. The only concern for
them now seems to be the adjustment of
the fiscal obligations secured by rev.
enues which the mother country expect
ed to wiring from them and which are
now cut off. Quite naturally, from a
Spanish point of view, the Madrid press
is indignant at the prospect of seeing
the entire West India secured debt
tumbled into the national treasury,
where it will be lost in the mass of
rubbish which has accumulated there
during the last 80 years. Contrary to
the general belief, only a small part OF
the Cuban bonds are held abroad, all
but about $40, 600, 900 of the $500, OOO, OO(
of these securities, backed by Spain's
guaranty, being held by the Bank Of
Spain and the subjects of the crown
That the foreign holdings will be liquid
ated in the course of time is probable,
but the great bulk of the debt may be
put down to profit and loss, the most
important account of the national
ledger.
But the real significance of this new
turn in the discussion Of the situation
is the unmistakable acceptance by the
Spanish press of the colonial dismem-
berment which it now recognizes as in
evitable. The people are being pre-
pared to view the situation as the rest
of the world has seen it from the begin.
ming of hostilities. This is a long stride
in the direction of peace; for, once the
people shall awaken to the futility Of
continuing the "a for the retention O.
one colony, the anger at the loss of an
other and another will become less anC
less, until, finally, a realization of help
~lessness will remove the danger of in
ternal disturbance and leave the pres

Astonishing Exhibition Of Common Sense.

There is little doubt that a great
majority Of the people of America do
not take kindly to the administrations
attitude on the Philippine question and
the prospect of entering into a partner
ship arrangement with Spain for the
control of the islands is looked upon
with greater disapproval. But the dis
position of the Philippines has not been
settled yet, by any means, and If recent
dispatches from Madrid are true, Spain
may help in the matter in a very sensi-
BILE manner.
According to the latest advices the
S~paniards seem to be awakening to the
practical side of the question and are
doing a little bookkeeping with a view
to determining whether or no the
whistle is worth what it will cost. Thus,
the Nacional advises the sale OF the is
lands because Of the great expense
which must be incurred in the creation
of q new navy and the maintenance Of
an army adequate to put down the Agui-
naldo rebellion. Whether the Nationals
article was "inspired" or not, 1t is dis
tinctly on the line Of approach to com-
mon sense, which is, Of all things, the

a source. Lee has outlawed himself and
he must take the consequences. His
actions throughout this whole affair
have not been the actions of an innocent
man. In February, 1896, when Judge
Fountain and his son We're murdered,
Lee was then "a deputy sheriff of Dona
Ana county, and as such he acted very
queerly to say the least. When the first
searching party to take the field fol-
lowed that suspicious trail to Lees
place he went for his gun as soon as the
seachers came in sight, instead of join
ing in the search as was his duty as
deputy sheriff. Had / been present
then l shonld have %suspicioned Lee.
Even before he was indicted he refused
to answer any questions relative to
his whereabouts on the day of the muir
der"
Sheriff Garrett said he did not wish to
discuss the affair for publication, and
when asked when he would again go
after Lee, the tall slayer of Chilly the
Kid" shot a sharp glance at the reporter
and a peculiar smile played around the
corners of his mouth when he replied:
when l think l can catch him..
The reporter reminded Sheriff Garrett
that Lee claims it was too dark for him
to recognize the sherif's party and that
himself and Gillihand did not know, when
the fight began at Wildy's Wells, whom
they We're fighting.
'All bosh," said Sheriff Garrett in his
quiet way. Lice reached his house only
two hours ahead of my party and when
we arrived there it was broad daylight.
Lee knew we were there Is minutes be-
fore the fight commenced, because a
woman screamed when we entered the
house where we expected to find Lee.
He says, too, that he was on his bed
asleep when we fired on him. Thisis also
untrue, for he was five feet from his
bed lying on his stomach holding his
gun in readiness when We discovered
him on top of his house. 1t is true that
Kearney, my deputy, fired first, but it
was after Lee had been called on to sur
render, and there was not more than a
moments time intervening between the
report of Kearney's gun and the answer
ing crack of Lees rifle. l thought that
probably Kearney had fired too quick,
and l asked him. 'Kearney, don't you
think you shot too soon.' He replied:
No, sir, Lee was raising his gun to shoot
when l fred"
The reporter suggested that Lee was
acting very much as a guilty man would
act.
"Yes,' said Sheriff Garrett, she is
acting very recklessly. He must event.

it some one else will"
Pat Carrot is a man who never boasts.
But Oliver Lee has a man on his trail
who cannot be frightened, cajoled or
bribed into quitting the chase. The
hunt is to the finish.

General Brialmont, of Belgium, by
some occult power, has figured out that
at the end of four centuries the
world would be so d~ensely popula ted
that a state of o~vercrowding will exist
and "bloody wars east, north, south
and west will be necessary to straighten
out a desperate state of affairs. Mean.

cause all the pasture lands will be re.
quired to raise vegetables for the multi.
tudes. That is certainly a dismal out
look for coming generations, but the
general is reckoning on things he never
dreamed of. So long as the Rocky
mountain country keeps above water
there will be pasture lands for goats
and burros. Bloody wars may com
but there will always be meat.

when the face is really sunburned cool
water seems to be the only application
which can relieve and refresh it, the result
of such application will be that the face
will swell and the skin peel off in the
painful and unsightly way which every
body has experienced. This can often be
escaped by washing in hot water, using q
very soft cloth and simply pressing 1t
against the skin and afterward applying
a little olive oil.

Give Those Kept at Home a Chance.

The cessation of hOStilities between
the United States and Spain will open
up a new question, that of what is to be
done with the volunteer army? This
appears to be a question easily an
swered, discharge the volunteers and
send them home. That is all very well
to talk about, but it does not dispose of
the matter by any means.
The men who have fought in Cuba,
those who went with General Merritt to
the Philippines, and those who have
walked on flowers in Puerto Rico will
raise no objection to returning to their
homes and former occupations, but
there are thousands of others who have
gotten no nearer to a fight than the
training camps they were first sent to.
These men enlisted to fight and gather
glory and they are not inclined to take
camp life for active war. 1T q shame to
disappoint men who are anxious to fight,
bleed and die for the flag, and Spain
will be held responsible for the disap-
pointment in quitting before there were
battles enough to go round.
As it is reported that an army of oc-
| cupation" of so, 900 men is to be formed
to remain in Cuba, it is suggested that
these volunteer regiments which are al
ready bewailing their fate as home
guards, be selected for this service in
the West Indies. The regulars have
fought and suffered already and should
be returned to the United States for
rest and recruitment for a time at least.
The proposed service in Cuba, begin
ming after the rainy season is over,
would probably not be ardous, being
merely to preserve the peace, and pre-
vent the different parties in Cuba from
using their machetes on each others
jugulars. Doing the police and dress
parade business in the Cuban towns
and cities in pleasant weather would
not be so monotonous as life in a camp
of instruction. The smart American
volunteer would find many ways to be-
guile the time.
The presence of a well-drilled and
disciplined American army in Cuba for
a year or two would be a valuable OBJ
ject lesson, and volunteers would in
some respects be more adapted to the
service than regulars. The regular
soldier as a rule never expects to leave
the army. Soldering is his trade and
he proposes to follow it as long as he is
physically able. The volunteer never
forgets that he has been q citizen, and
he proposes to become a citizen again.
Stationed in Cuba, he would investigate
the country and its affairs, learn to
speak Spanish, establish friendly rela-
lions with the inhabitants, and possibly,
at the conclusion of his term of enlist
ment, remain on the island, engage in
business of some sort, acting as an un-
salaried and uncommissioned ambassa-
dor and minister plenipotentiary of the
United States. In the reconstruction
of Cuba the volunteer should be allowed
to take part, if only as an excellent ex-
ample,

Virtues of Warm Water For Washing the
Face and Hands.

Virtues of Warm Water For Washing the
Face and Hands.
Rough towels are usually recommended
for bath use, and as the skin of the body
is continually protected by the clothing
and receives little friction save during the
bath a rough towel is desirable for pro
noting the circulation and stimulating
the surface. With the face and hands,
however, it is a different matter. They
are exposed to constant variations of tenn
p%erature, to wind, sun and other harsh in
f~luences, and chatting them with a rough
cloth abrades and coarsens the skin in
stead of improving it. Soft and somewhat
worn towels are therefore better for face
and hand use, and violent rubbing is to be
avoided.
The face and hands should not be wash
ed in very cold water, as it Injuries the
quality Of the skin. Washing the face in
cool water when the skin has been Jun
burned Is also to be avoided, for, although
