IT is now said that matters are 80
shaping themselves that the next few
months may see such an alliance as
the world has never known before. 1t
Is stated on apparently good authority
that a Japanese fleet has gone to the
Philippines with orders to cooperate
with the British and American ad-
mirals in case of inter-
national complications. Following
this statement comes the intimation
that fleet will be dispatched by
Russia to the came station with the
same instructions. The possibility
Of such an arrangement as this fore
shadows is simply bewildering. Rus
STA and England have not been friend
ly. In fact an open rupture has been
looked for more than once within the
past few years. But it is not
entirely impossible that the new
conditions that have arisen in conse-
quence OF our entrance into world po-
Titles in the far east may have already
operated to rearrange old dispositions
and to make itappear to Russia that
Great Britain and America are in
fnitely more valuable to her in fur
thering her eastern schemes than the
friendship of Germany or France.

SOME FL Paso women who have done
much for the betterment of the town
in many ways say they are afraid II
will be useless to insist on any substan-
tial recognition from the city authori-
ties in the matter of the public library,
on account OF the Indifference with
which their efforts in the past have
generally been received. We would
respectfully suggest that this is the
worst possible time for the matter to
be allowed to drop, for we believe the
time is about ripe for the women to get
what they ask for il they go at the
matter in the right way. The right
way, as we see it, we suggested some
tirae ago-a petition to the council,
signed by the leading citizens. We
think this would have the desired eff
feet. The time is short.

Why He Know It.

A certain English theatrical manager.
though in other respects a thorough bust
ness man, could neither read nor write,
but kept a private secretary, who had
strict injunctions not to betray the Sc
oret. One day the manager was dining
at the hotel when a gold watch was
ratified for. Each oftthe guests staked 2
s%hillings, wrote his name on a scrap Of
paper, and threw it into a hat. Our
manager, when his turn came to sign
his name, pretended to write, rolled up
the blank piece Of paper and threw it
into the hat along with the rest. As
chance would have it, this very paper
was drawn. Great was the establishment
when it was found to be blank. But
B. the low comedian, who was
present, asked to have it shown to him,
and when he had examined it carefully,
he gravely exclaimed: "That is our
managers handwriting. l should know
it among a thousand r'--Nuggets.

Black first uttered the story which has
since wended its way in and out of the

about Democrats and whisky. 1t was OH
a Philadelphia hot night. The air was
still and sitting. A friend Of the judge
walked up to him mopping his brow
and expressed his surprise that the
Judge was not at Cape May shifting salt
breezes. The judge assured his visitor
that such weather was Of incalculable
benefit to humanity.

A WoMAN'S COMPLAINT.

know that desp within your heart
You hold me shrined apart from common
things
And that my step, my voice, can bring to you
A gladness that no other presence brings.
And yet, dear love, throughout the weary days
You never speak one word of tenderness
Nor stroke my hair nor softly clasp my hand
Within your own in loving, mute caress.
You think perhaps l should be all content
To know SO well the loving place I hold
Within your life, and yet you do not dream
How much ] long to hear the story told.
You annot know, when we two sit alone
And tranquil thoughts within your mind ars
stirred,
Ny heart is crying like q tired child
For one fond look, one gentle. loving word.
IT'S not the boundlsss waters ocean holds
That give refreshment to the thirsty flowers,
But just the drops that, rising to the skies,
From Themes descend in softly falling shsw'
ers.
What matter that our granaries are filed
With all the richest harvest's golden stores
II we who own them cannot enter in,
But, famished, stand below the Close barred
doorsp
And SO tits said that those who should be rich
In that true love which crowns our earthly lot
Go praying with white lips from day to day
For loves sweet tokens and receive them not.

To Dig the Nicaraguan Canal.

The war with Spain has demonstrated
the Importance of a short route between
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. BY
digging a canal IA few miles long at the
Isthmus of Panama, thousands of miles
of travel can be saved. AT the present
time ships must go around South
America A short route is always an
advantage. 1t saves time and money.
The journey from sickness to health
can be quickly made at moderate cost
by taking Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
While its action in disorders like constl-
patton, biliousness, indigestion, fever
and ague and general weakness is quick.
still it does not force a cure. 1t gives
that assistance in carrying OFT the waste

p. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3, writ
ing from Santiago de Cuba, on July %,
says: "We all had diarrhoea in more or
less violent form, and when we landed
we had no time to see a doctor, for it
was a case of rush and rush night and
day to keep the troops supplied with
ammunition and r%ations, but thanks to
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy, we were able to keep at
work and keep our health; in fact, | sin
cerely believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect saviour Of
our army, for if the packers had been
unable to work There would have been
no way Of getting supplies to the front.
There were no roads that Il wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself had
the good fortune to lay in a supply Of
this medicine for II pack-train before

They got acquainted, he and she,
And strollcd upon the sandy shore.
They tossed white pebbles in the deep,
They passed the merry throngs at play;
They watched the seagull's graceful

And saw the liners sail away.
But words of love they uttered not,
For they were Boston bred, and SO
They talked y lot OF 1bsen rot
And missed the JOY that lovers know.
