Newspaper criticism of Pres. Mckinney is growing less and less daily. He has built up wonder fl navy in the space of two months. Today on the water we are all powerful and at the present rate of building and acquiring war vessels no other nation on earth will want to fool with our Uncle Sam eI in less than year. The presidents instructions to Dewey were right to the point and the dai- lying p,licy in Cuba was simply a bait to draw the Cape Verde fleet into our net and add it to Samp. sons squadron. Now that there is little danger of drawing the Spanish fleet to our shores we may expect to hear of lively times in Cuba and Porto Rico.

Senator Davis. of Minnesota, says the United States will hold the Philippines, annex Hawaii and Porto hico and establish a re- public in Cuba. Now that the Philippines are within our grasp we cannot think that congress will let it slip away We will have a great navy 500 without anything for it to do and the country will he heav- Ilv taxed to maintain it. With the Philippines a revenue sufficient to support greater navy would be assured.

A eRlCANp CAPTAINS CAREER.
The News of His Recent Capture Causes
"a Sigh OF Relief

The news of the capture Of the noto-
rious brigand, Captain Athanas, the
terror of travellers in the Balkans, has
caused sigh Of relief. His career is
the most remarkable in modern brig
andage. He had withdrawn himself
from his profitable and romantic bust
ness some time before his capture and
lived peacefully as n citizen at Kusl-
owitz. His past did not, apparently,
affect his social position in town
which IL somewhat remarkable for its
Indifference as 10 the antecedents OF its
inhabitants, for the one very good rea.
son that he had given up all the incon-
venient habits associated with his for
mer adventurous life. He tried even to
make himself popular among his
neighbors and gave his ill-gotten gains
IA veritable Robin Hood--for the
benefit Of the poor and distressed.
The deed by which his memory will
go down TO posterity is undoubtedly
the holding up" Of the international
express in 1891 from Constantinople
to Vienna at tho station Of fischer
keskoi, close to the Turkish capital.
The train was derailed, and the pas
sengers, under the escort Of the Ber-
lin tourist firm Of Stangen, were plum
dered aud carried of to tho mountains
to be held az hostages until ransom
was paid. Among them was an Eng
lishman. With the exception Of four
Germans aud n Jew, all were subse-
quently released. With sharp eye
to business, the jew, rich Berlin
merchant named Moritz Israel, was
dispatched to Constantinople aud
brought the alarming news that the
hostages would be murdered unless .
ransom Of 200, 900 francs was forth
coming. The German government in
tervened and finally paid the ransom.
Later some Of the brigands were cap
tured. But Athanas managed to evade
oil pursuit. st. James Gazette.

within the building. The largest tank
contains sea water in its normal state,
and the others are heated to various
temperatures to suit the require
ments of all. The longest tank is 800
feet i'm length, and L.shaped, being
$50 feet wide ut itsgreatest width, and
100 feet in its narrowest. The baths
are supplied by the ocean direct, but
pumping facilities are provided, in
case of failure of the tides, by which
water can be forced in ut the rate OF
600O gallons per minute.
The emptying of the tanks required
wonderful ingenuity, so that a return
Of water once used might be avoided.
Refuse water in the main outlet, re-
ceiving the contents of all the tanks,
is piped hundreds Of feet TO the other
side of tho headlands, thus passing
into the tidal current, and far away
from the baths.
On the inland side of the tank rises
the vast amphitheatre; tier upon tier
of seats rising higher and higher,
though from each and all Of them

Forty tub bathrooms are also pro-
vided for those who are less active.

The erection and final completion
OF the Sutro baths Of San Francisco,
constitute a worthy endingto the long

now closed by the failure OF his giant

were ever comparable to them in size,

these baths furnishes q chapter in the

Bsrefooted Dogs Not Fit for Alaska Ser

Archdeacon Phair, who has spent
many years in the remote northwest

states that intending Klondikers who
think Of taking dogs with them are
making very serious mistake. Mr..
Phair says that the 'huskies," or Es-
quimau dogs, are well protected with
q growth Of hair between their toes,
which prevents their feet from being
frozen. Imported dogs have not this
necessary pedal extremity protection.
and every dog taken into the Klon-
dixie during this winter Is sure TO suf-

Two strange tales come from the
antipodes. On November 10 the
Catholic church a. N1inyip, Victoria,
was partly blown over by a storm, and
propped up by heavy timbers spiked
to the ground. A few days later an-
other storm arose aud blew the church
plumb on its foundation again. The
ship Nelson arrived at Wellington,
having struck on a rocky point, and
had several holes in her bottom.
Divers found one hole stopped up by
a large piece Of rock, and another hole
calked by a fish that had been squeezed
in tail first.

TOOK HIM SERIOUSLY.

And now President Gilman. OF Johns
Hopkins University. has declined TO serve
on the investigating commission. Truly
the President is having hard time In
irving TO get himself investigated. We
say, in trying to get himself investigated,
for although the proposed commission Is
for the purpose OF investigating the War
Department, the President is responsible
for that department. He is responsible
for Algerism, and whatever may be the
shortcomings or incompetency of the
Secretary of War, they bark back 10 Mr..
Mckinley.
However, the President has the con-
ISOLATION Of knowing that IL he ever sue
ceeds In getting together a commission
that will cohere, there ought to be no
difficulty in securing an abundance OF
testimony as TO the maladministration
of the War Department. Indeed, Mr..
Alger himself has been industriously en-
gagged recently in collecting testimony on
that point, as witness the news from
Camp Hamilton. On visiting that camp
the Secretary invited the officers to talk
freely. and they did. They did tale
unfold that ought to have narrowed up
the soul of the Secretary, as 1t placed
him and his department in terrible
light.
Perhaps the Secretary did not expect
the officers TO take him seriously. But
be that as It may, they did take him
seriously, and spoke right out in meeting.
So we say. for the consolation of the
President that he need have no fear Of
not convicting, even should he secure no
other witness than Alger, provided, OF
Alger can be induced to tell all
he heard at Camp Hamilton.

In many cases the trouble among the
animals was due to the neglect of their
masters, who. either through careless
ness or ignorance, failed to give them
proper attention. And then, too, the
horses suffered much from exposure to
the sun and heavy rains In Cuba. Their
backs were blstered by the heat and the
moisture, so that the hair came on. and
bad sores were left. making them en-
tirely unfit for the saddle.
While many OF the army mules were
rendered ''hors de combat" they stood
their war experiences far better than the
horses.
In round numbers, the government has
now about 10000 mules and 10000 horses.
Thousands of these were purchased just
before the war and will now be dis
posed OF.

New York now has pending In enc Of
its courts an action for divorce, which is
indirectly due to onions and bicycles. The
lady is the complainant, and her bill shows
that the differences arising between the
couple were caused to a large extent by
the husbands secretly bicycling with an
other woman.

her disagreeable consort became es-
tranged over a little hitch in their Gomes-
tic machinery. The cook. on certain

he excitedly left the room. He chen and
there declared that he would not eat at
home again unless his wife would give
him written guarantee that onions
would not be used in his food again.
Those are the allegations of the ag-
grieved woman, but the defealant has
another story 10 tel. lie cxplllns the
onion episode by saying that these self
assertive vegetables act as a poison on
MS system, and that he has often begged
in vain that hts food should be prepared
without them.
And so the two have fallen out and re.
fuse TO shake hands across the on!ony
chasm. The woman, by the way. has not
forgotten to ask for alimony .long with
other requests, but the Judge has not
yet decided the matter. Well may be
scratch his legal pate, for the case is a
hard one 10 adjudicate.
Assuredly the husband-if his state
ments possess a scintilla of truth-has had
much TO suffer. But we should Ike TO
know little more about the woman with
whom he clandestinely went bicycling.
