Pin this in Your Hat.

We clip the following from an ex-
change:
Editors are the first to hear of gossip,
indescretion of men and women, things
unfit for publication, intrigues, clan
destine meetings, night buggy rides,
young girls gone astray, fiirtations with
married women, amours of married
mem in fact all neighborhood scandal.
Editors generally know all the naughty
doings in community, no mater how
secret. If one half they hear was pub
lished, divorce suits would follow in
some cases, social ostracism in others,
shot guns and gore, desolate homes,
Imprisonment, lynching, shame, humil
iation and misery. The elitor learns
much of the shame and hypocracy of
life and it is wonder that he believes
in anything ON earth or the hereafter.
People who abuse the editor the loul

ciety to his forbearance.

BY II. c. Thompson.
Far beyond the glamor
OF the city and its strife
There was once little quartz mine
rich and free,
Where an honest-hearted miner
Used to lead happy life,
Contented at his work as he could DO.
He walked the earth quite proudly,
A bonanza king forsooth,
For he thought no disappointment
could befall,
But he left his work one evening,
And his sad heart knew the truth,
For the pay streak had gone off into
the wall
There's a name that's never spoken,
There's miners heart that broken,
For he thought he'd be invited to the
Bradley Martin ball.
There is still a memory living
Ofhow prospects are deceiving,
When the pay streak wapders off into
the wall
Now he sits within his cabin
Thinking of the coming years,
And wondering what the future has in
store,
While the demon of dependency
Is wailing in his ears,
And the hungry wolf is bowling at the
door.

EUROPEAN GOVERNMENTS
IN SEARCH OF LOANS.
Japan, Anticipating an Early Struggle
With Russia, Looks to the United
States for Loan.

CHICAGO, Dec, IA special from
Washington says:
There are seers who predict that
Uncle Sam win become the banker for the
world.
1.-TWO old world governments, Russia
and Japan, have turned their faces to
the United States in search Of loans.
Russia, at least, had agents sound some
American financiers. This Is the first
time foreign nations have sought to float
great national loans in America, and the
wise men think 1t is the beginning ef the
new era.
1T may be said on authority that ia
pan needs the money ostenslbly to meet
deficit In her revenues produced by
heavy expenditures for land and sea
armament, and also to assist her in the
establishment Of national industrial
bank, That is Japan's official explanation
OF her needs.
''In diplomatic circles It is shrewdly
suspected that Japan is preparing her
self for an ultimate struggle with Russia
and has been hurried by the activity OF
Russia in borrowing $55,5OO,OOO to replace
her artillery with rapid fire guns.
''It was learned at one OF the lega-
tions today that this loan recently made
In France. Is only one fourth of what
Russia antually needs, and that Russia
has come to this country for assistance
because she failed all she wished in
France. II is presumed that Japan and
Russia between them win want about
SlOO, 100000.

NEW YORK. Dec. ia dispatch to
the World from Havana says:
The Cubans on Sunday celebrated the
evacuation OF Mariana on invitation OF
the alcalde Senior Gomez de La Manza.
Every street was decorated with Cuban
and American flags intertwined and at
several points were erected uiumphal
arches, bearing suitable inscriptions.

raded the town in the morning. In pro
cession were Generals Monoeal. Lacret,
Julio Sanguilly, Mayla Rrodrguez.
Breakfast was given at noon in hotel

it, but being unable to be present, he was
represented by Colonel Armfield. COM
mander Of the First brigade, Second de-
vission. and Captain r. f. Paxton, bri-
gade adjutant.
The Cubans were most enthusiastic.
Among the speeches was one by ]. San
gully, who declared that the Cubans
look upon Americans as brothers, but
whatever might De The consequence the
Cubans must insist upon absolute lnde-
pendence.
The Spanish authorities have taken
strict measures to prevent and disturb
ance. Strong guards are stationed In
every quarter, while special precautions
have been taken around the Parade and
hotel Inglaterra.
The engineer corps at Mariana probably
will go next week to Matanzas to pre-
pare the way for the American troops.

EUROPEAN POWER APPLIES
FOR A HnAVY LOAN.
The Report That Russia Is Irving to
Secure a Loan From United States
Discussed by Bank omcials.

CHICAGO. Dec. ia number of Chi
cago financiers and bankers have been
interviewed in relation to the reported
application of one of the Europsan pow
ers for heavy loan in the United States,
Isaac G. Lombard, vice president of the
American National Bank, said:
'T hardly think that this country will
make a loan to Russia, at least not a
large one. There Is surplus money here
but not enough to warrant large for.
eign loan. America has made many for.
eign loans, but not to governments
Rates here are about as low as anywher,
at present"
Ernest A. Hamin. president Of the Corr
Exchange National Bank, said:
"There is no question that this coun,
try Is becoming so rich that its surplu.
money will seek investment abroad. Tn,
balances in its favor are becoming larger
and it is accommodating wealth at a rate
that is unprecedented. Money, conse.
quently, is easier here than elsewhere
For this reason, though the proposition o
making loan to foreign government /!
unprecedented, 1t seems natural and al
together probable. In case such loar
is made, Chicago Is in a position TO pro
vide considerable sum Of It,"
There IS no doubt that If Russia wants
loan, this would be the natural plac,
to seek It," said j, B. Forgan, vice pres.

the President marched ahead with Judge
Speer. The sight OF the Confederate
badge on the presidents coat as he passed
through the lines OF the veterans called
forth vociferous cheering. The president
wore the badge during his stay in Macon.
As his carriage passed the Confederate
monument an old Confederate vepsfa..
frantically waved Confederate dag.
while by his side was the son OF the
colonel Of one Of Georgia's hardest fight

vigorously waving the stars and stripes.
