TRIP
Around the World, and Uncle
Sam Pays All Expenses
and Good Wages.

Lieut.. Johnston. recruiting officer OF
Lexington, KY, wants a number OF
men at once for 221 Infantry. Tbs
regiment goes to Manila.
A young man enIisting now has adj
vantsges to see the world that will
not soon occur aga n. He will be sent
at once to Omaha, Neb., present sta
ton OF the regiment, via indianapolis
aud Chicago; will probably remain
there a short time, when the regiment
will go to New York City, thence
across the Atlantic to Southern Eu-
rope, touching at different points in
the Mediterranean Sea, through Suez
Canal, around India, touching at
points en- route to Manila. After
seeing that part of the world fer
three years aud drawing his pay, he
is sent back home via Hawaii Islands
10 San Francisco, and draws travel
pay from there to Lexington, which
will materially increase his pay. He
has in three years seen the world, all
expenses paid, and drawn fair pay
and is landed back at home. Come at
once, or opportunity is gone forever.
This is a splendid opportunity and
will not remain open long. There is
no way by which a young man can
possibly earn enough money in three
years TO take this trip. And just think
of it! all expenses are paid and tie
man draws his pay each month be
sides. Take this while it lasts: it
may never occur again. An education

FUNERAL SERVICE
OF the Cuban Patriot, Warrior
and Statesman.
Archbishop Ireland Pronounced
Funeral Grafton.

The solemn high macs Of the Catho-
lie Church was performed at st.
Patrick Church in Washington on
Tuesday before the body of Gen Gar
ella was temporarily deposited in a
vault at the National Cemetery in Ar
lington. Many distinguished public
men were present. Two batteries of
United States artillery accompanied
the procession.
Distinguished church dignitaries
were present. Archbishop Ireland
pronounced the funeral GRAFTON. He
touched upon the solemnity Of death,
it's lessons aud its encouragement to-
ward a higher life. OF Gen Carcass
career he said:
His object was civil and political
freedom for Cuba He sought these
ideals with absolute sincerely and
disinteredness. Under this same
principle we must judge all men, and
under such principles does God Judge
them. The ewes of the Most High
rested with complscency Ipon soldiers
in different camps soldiers did their
dpty as they understood duty.
"Ihe soldiers of Cuba fought for
noble principle, the bettermeut of that
country the soldiers of Spain fought
from devotion to Spain and loya lty
20 their Government; the soldiers of
America obeyed duty in obeviDg their
country in following out its high pur-
poses. 1t is in such spirit as this at
such solemn time as this that we
must look upon the history of battle
fields and accept the Judgment of the
BOD of battles as it is melted out to
1he nations who have deferred to the
ar6frr&ment of the sword. Now war
is closed Let peace and friendship
enter into our souls and reign be-
tween America and Cuba, between
America, Cuba and Spain. Let there
be upon US the peace OF God made
manifest among men.
"There arises before us new respon-
sibilities for Cuba. For the latter
there opens thesvist of liberty to the
Cubans to show what they are, to de-
velop their own talents and the re-
sources of their country. If they fail
the fault is THERE. Religious
liberty will be theirs; let them
snow themselves worthy of their
Catholic faith and their Catholic ira
ditions. Let Catholic faith and Cas-
lillian blood renew their best tradi-
tons. United they have had in the
past glorious history. To-day, with
blessings of civil and religious lib
erty, they should not be unworthy of
their highest feats in other ages. The
friendship and the aid and the insti-
tutions of America are pledged to
Cuba-and she must prosper if she
profits by all her opportunities.

WAsnINGToN, Feb The bosses
of the Cherokee, Choctaw, ChiclSasaw
and Creek tribes in Indian territory
are beginning TO show signs of weaS-
ness in their resistance TO the Dawes
commission and an inclination to rat
ify the r~eaties for the allotment of
their land in severalty, which until
now they have refused to do This is
owing to their fear that Congress will
pass the bill prepared by Representa-
tive Curtis of Kansas and indorsed by
the two committees on Indian affairs
That measure is great deal more
radical than the provisions of the
treaty. 1t deprives the Indians Of
all tribal privileges.

lack Of food. became discontonted with
their home and they held a great coun-

to the southward IN a body. so they
all set out one bright morning and
travelled until they reached the Po,o-
mac river. Here they all leaped in
and swan across. Some boys on the
farther shore saw them coming in a
vast, dark body that nearly choked up
the river. At first they were fright
ened, but when they knew that they
were squirrels they lay in wait and
caught more than one hundred Of them.

sistcnce 60 Miiitary Force.
IL Is great pity that national char
acteristics and influences cannot be
taken into consideration in dealing
with labor disorders In this country.
Our system is one designed TO agree
with the nature and purpose of re
publican government. but there have
been many indications that IL Is de-
feated in its workings by the utter
lack Of ability on the part Of foreign
laborers to understand the spirit OF
republicanism. Our system calls for
the exercise first of civil authority in
any rotous outbreak. When the
county which possesses only civic
force. has exhausted all its powers and
has failed TO quell the disorder. it calls
upon the state. which is armed with
military authority and which forth
with proceeds to exercise It. This sys-
tenn would work admirably in COM
munity of persons educated from
childhood to a comprehension Of gov
ernment OF the people. for the people,
by the people" Such persons are toll
erably ready to bow to the will of au-
thority which they themselves have
created They understand that their
own welfare and the general safety
depend upon such submission. But
with a community composed largely of
unassimilated foreigners the civic au-
thority has little influence. They are
accustomed to seeing the crowned
heads of their nations arrayed in mill
tary garb. They are used to hearing
military titles prefxed to the names
of their ministers. They are familiar
with the parade of military force in
all times Of disorder, and to them the
military uniform is the symbol OF
rule.
