A Peculiar Situation.

Telegraphic dispatches from Paris
state that there is a probability of the
Spanish members of the American
Spanish peace commission withdrawing
from further conference, and negotia-
tons between the United States and
unsatisfactory ending. The reports to
this effect are based upon the position
taken by the Spaniards that the de-
mands made by the United States are
the bankruptcy of Spain. To the de
mand hat Spain should %relinquish the
Philippines to this country, hat gov
eminent makes the counter proposition
that the United States shall pay $24O,-
600. 900, the full amount of the Cuban,
Porto Rican and Philippine debts.
1t is not necessary to say that the
American peace commissioners will re-
ject any such proposition, and then 49,.
If Spain should refuse to continue
peace negotiations, what can be done by
his country? 1t would hardly be pos
sible for a nation of the size, strength
and wealth of the United States to re-
new hostilities with a broken, defeated
and powerless country, without calling
forth the protests of the rest of the
world and placing this country i'll a
ridiculous and di~sgraceful position. OF
course the occupation of the Philippines
could be continued, the Spanish garri-
sons on the islands taken prisoners an6
returned 10 their native land at the ex-
pense of the United States, but that act
would turn a war which was begun for
humanitarian reasons into one of con-
quest, and the good that has already
been accomplished, would in a large
measure be lost. The question is a per-
picking one for the administration, and
one which presents many unpleasant
features.
That the Philippines should be re-
turned to Spain is out of the question.
Humanity demands that some other
disposition Of the islands be made. For
his country to attempt to place the ISL
ands under the control of some other
European nation would result in COM
plications which are not pleasant to
contemplate. The people of this
try are almost unanimous in their de-
mand that the Philippines be retained
permanently, and the administration
and American peace commissioners
have no enviable undertaking on their
hands.
However, there is no question that the
demand made by this country that
Spain %relinquish the Philippine archipel-
ago will be insisted upon, and that if
peace negotiations are then closed by
the withdrawal of SPANS representa-
tives, the conquest of the Philippines
and of Cuba will nave to be carried on
in response to the demands of the peo-
pie, who are, after all, the rulers of the
land. If European nations do not like
such an arrangement they will have to
make the best of it.

Wire nails, manufactured in the Uni
ted States, have only been in COMMON
use for sixteen years, yet in that short
time they have conquered the foreign
as we'll as the domestic market, and the
output for 1897, as is learned from the
official United States treasury reports,
reached the gigantic total of SOC, 600, 00O
pounds. The trade has steadily in
creased and the price has steadily de-
clined, thanks to the Republican policy
of protection to home manufactures.

MUMMY PICTURES.
The Latest Fad In Photography For
society Women.

Thu latest Fad In Photography For
society Women.
Society often goes out of its way to
obtain a fresh sensation. The latest
craze, which vas inaugu,ated by Mrs.
James P. Kernochan of New York on
her return from abroad, Is to pose for
ones photograph in il mummy frame.
This startling fancy originated i'll Cairo,
Egypt, in which place Mrs. Kernochan
spent last winter.
To obtain a mummy case in Cairo Is
a comparatively easy matter. The en-
terprising photographer there keeps one
in stock for his American patrons. The
picture is taken in this way: The sub
ject steps into the case, which is placed
ON end, and the lid is then closed, leav-
ing an opening just large enough for the
face. 1t is a grewsome idea, but a popu-
lar one. The mummy pictures are con-
sidered graceful and appropriate SOU
venirs of a trip to Egypt to present on
returning to the friends at home.
The fad has attained such instant
popularity, however, that many persons
are not waiting for a tour OF the east in
order to see a picture of their own faces
peering out at them from a mummy
case. New York photographers prepare
a picture of u mummy case and simply
insert the face of the person DESTROYS of
obtaining such a unique photograph.
1t is whispered that a number of
these weird photographs are to circulate
on All Halloween. when the ghostly
and the CHASTITY are always in demand.
The girls are already finding amusement
in replying to requests from amorous
SWANS for their photographs by pre-
senting them with a mummy picture.
Bets and philopenas are also cancelled
in this fashion. The feelings of the low
er may be imagined when he is unex-
pectedly confronted with the features of
his beloved enshrouded in the antique
habiliments OF death.
Many people think that the idea il
too morbid to be encouraged. The mum
my case is too suggestive of a coffin t.
be entirely pleasant. However, this
weird fancy is desirable at present, and
for its little day the mummy picture
promises to be a popular fad.-New
York World.

little money spent, for the simple eason
that the Republican territorial commit

cause the candidate is a poor man.
On the Democratic side this paper has

money than for several campaigns past

This is a good sign all around.

Catarrh.

Catarrh is one of the most obstinate
diseases. and hence the most difficult
to get rid of.
There is but one way to cure it.
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe-
cific cures Catarrh permanently, forit is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.

KY. had Catarrh for years. He writes:
