CerVera is on his way to Manila TO de-
stroy the feet of Admiral Dewey and to
sink the American transports carrying
troops to the Philippines. There might be

The June number of the American Monthly Re
view of Reviews is of the most interesting
and valuable numbers which it has issued for
long time and may perhaps be considered the
best OF the war magazines this month. 1t opens
with a character sketch OF Admiral Dewey. by
Winston Churchill which is almost as good as
an extended biography, and is full OF racy anec-
dote and keen analysis of character. The second
article is 1.-THE Philippine Islands, in two
parts, "An American in the Philippines by J.
t. Mannix, and ''The Philippines in History by
Charles Johnston. Spain and the Caroline ISL
ands' comes third on the list, and is the work
of E. E. Strong. The remainder of the maga-
zine is taken up with the usual editorial re-
sumo of the course of events, reviews of the cur
rent magazines and cartoons, mainly from for
eign papers. There more than hundred pic
lures in this number most of them having to do
with the war, and from cover to cover the maya
zine is packed with information of a kind es-
pecially interesting Just now.

The Pope had the highest admiration
for Gladstone, whom he regarded as the
greatest EngIishman of modern times,
and during the illness of Mr.. Gladstone
his holiness followed the daily bulletins
recording the condition OF the great
statesman with the keenest sympathy.
His death is the occasion of great grief
to the Pope, who feels that he will follow
Mr. Gladstone at no distant date. The
Pope has on several occasions told Mgr
Angel, his private secretary and con-
fidant, that he would die soon after the
death of one of the great ones of this
century-that is. after the death of either
Queen Victoria. Mr.. Gladstone, or Prince
Bismarck. 1t was therefore with great
caution that Cardinal Rampolla broke the
news of Mr.. Gladstone's death to him
The news reached the Vatican about Il
o'clock, while the Pope was at mass.
After mass Cardinal Rampolla entered

Her weakness is we'll known in the high
er circles, and everybody winks at her
fault. The most peculiar thing about the
countess is that she only purloins food
and sweetmeats and fruit. On account
of her position she is a guest at almost
all of the swell affairs in the Swedlsh
capital. She goes prepared for her ad-
ventures having in all her dresses large
oilskin pocket in which she does not
hesitate to secrete whole fowls. fruits
and confectionery. The guests know her
failing and place before her tempting
viands, and with sidelong glances at their
neighbors watch the poor countess stow
them away. She watches her chance,
and when she thinks the road is clear,
down go the articles into her capacious
pocket. What she does with the food is
more amusing still. If one chance to call

In the year 1884, he first became a

from this field, and with a splendid
and thorough grasp of the local situ-
alton Of the history of the country,
and familiar with the whole people and
true to them, Mr.. Dole, better than
any other living man, can present the
question Of annexation from the Ha-
waiian standpoint. With instincts Of
Americanism he is of breadth enough
to see both sides of the question, while
devotedly loyal to one view of it. He
will touch public sentiment, too. There
is nothing about Mr.. Dole that could
give ground for the most remote sug-
gestion that he would seek for motor

a member of the Executive Committee
of the Hawaiian League, and by his
conservative course and counsel re-
strained rash action advocated by some
of its members.
Mr.. Dole has not confined himself
exclusively to law and politics, for he
has contributed considerably to litera-
ture. Among several articles from his
pen, one appearing in Johnson's New
American Cyclopaedia on the Hawaiian
Islands is remarkable for it's brevity
and perspicuity, requiring an intimate
knowledge of the subject, which was
handled with exceptional ability.
Mr. Dole was married in 1873, to
Miss Anna P. Cate, of Massachusetts,
In 1898, Mr.. Dole was made presi-
dent of the Provisional Government
and in 1894, elected President of the
Republic.
In the absence of the President,
Minister Cooper, holding the portfolio
of Foreign Affairs, will besides his
present duties, act as the chief execu-
tive.
Said a prominent member of the
Government after the Councils had ad-
jorned: I'VE decided by unanimous
vote tat it was wise for Mr.. Dole to
proceed to Washington at this time
and meet with President Mckinley and
that Executives immediate advisors
and perhaps with some of the United
States Senators and foremost Ameri-
can advocates of annexation 1t is pro
per and dignified and patriotic that the
head of the annexationists here and
the head Of the well-established and

ested in the annexation question. We

believe the policy is correct and that
the move will result in material gain
to our cause Mr. Dole is a man pc
culiarly fitted for just such a mission
as this. We believe he will make a
good impression and that some Of the
Senators and perhaps statesmen in
more exalted positions will conclude
after meeting him that some of the
things that have been said to the de-
triment of Mr.. Doe and his associates
in the reform and progress movement
in these Islands is incorrect, TO say the
least. BY the visit of Mr.. Dole to

to the toast of Masonry" In few

advice to those who happened to be
working in Masonry, at the same time
| giving a sketch of his work along in
the same channel. In referring to the
| fault-fnding of some in regard to the
Masonic ritual, he remarked that it had
| to be taken as handed down from one
past master to the other and that no
matter whether it did not seem to be
exactly correct in some places. still
it was necessary to rely upon those
who were qualified to transmit. Mr.
| Phillips then pictured the chaos that
would result if every Mason was al
| lowed a say in the makeup of the
| ritual. A very high tribute was paid
! to the incoming master whom the past
| master believed to be eminently fitted
to take the pace assigned him by the
| lodge.
Toastmaster Cooper referred tc the
formation of Pacific Lodge and the feel
ing rife at that time on account of
the breaking away of number of men
to form a new branch He then called
on Norman E. Gedge to respond to
