Good Advice For Those Who Attempt to
Write Books.
Read up on United States history
you will get some useful Information
anyway-and see what you can do with
that. Don t take your scene from France
or Italy, where you have never been.
Home is nearer and just as good II
you can light upon an idea which has
not been done to death, or q situation
unhackneyed or unfamiliar, make the
most of it. New England has been SO
run upon that it affords material only
to few experts. The middle states and
those between the Ohio and the Rock
les, locally speaking, are poor literary
field, but the south and far west are not
worked out yet. Avoid dialect; as q
main reliance its day is done. Avoid
"hifalutin," spread eagle and riproar-
ing styles; they are Of the yet remoter
past. Find out what your bent is, if you
have any, and what you have to say, II
anything; il not, seek other pursuits.
Remember that poor story or essay is
of less value than peck Of inferior ap.
pies, and that the author Of a bad novel
is entitled to no more respect than q
shoemaker or farmer who does not
understand his business. The pioneers
of our literature may have done what
now seems poor work, but they knew
no better then and had nothing better
they were pioneers, and as such entitled
to q place in history-but nobody is go
ing to write the history Of the multifa-
rious literary efforts Of our time that
come to nothing.
Whatever you do take pains with 1t.
Try at least to write good English.
Learn to criticise and correct your work.
Put your best into every sentence. II
you are too lazy and careless to do that,
better 60 into trade or politics. It is
easier to become a congressman or mil
lionaire than a real author, and we
have too many bad story tellers as it ID.

LOOKS LIKE SUCCESS
Senator Pettigrew Writes He Relieves
the Soldiers Home Measure
Will Pass

Will Pass.
Colonel Kellar is in receipt of the
following letter from Senator Petit
grew which is indeed encouraging
and shows what great interest he is
taking in accomplishing what we are
all SO deeply interested in. The letter
is as follows:
!. WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 10, 1898.
Mr.. ANDREW j. KELLAR,
Hot Springs, s. d.,
"My Dear Sir: The bill for the Sol
diers Home passed the senate yester-
day. 1t appropriates sl5oOoo. OF
course passed it through the senate
before. / do not expect it to become
a law Ly that means. Iexpect to So
cure the adoption of my amendment
to the appropriation bill. have sim
ply passed it through the senate as an
additional argument why should get
it on the appropriation bill. 1 will try
to get the bill reported favorably in the
house. It looks now as though we
would make success of this effort
and that the Soldiers Home would be
built. If it is not it certainly will not
be my fault.
II expect to secure the location of
Ft. Meade as q permanent military
post and $1,000 for the construction
of permanent buildings. have al
ready the promise of the committee on
appropriations that they will put an
item in the appropriation bill.
Yours truly,
r. F. PErTIGREw."
: Edmund Smith, the Rapid City law
yer, writes the STAR editor that he has
been in correspondence with Mr.. e. P.
Kicker, of Poland Springs, Maine, re-
garding the National Home and Mr..
Kicker writes that he has written sew
eral of his Washington friends asking
them to use their influence and that
he intended to go to Washington in a
few days and would do all in his power
to help forward the Home measure.
r.. F. Connor writes from Boston to
the STAR editor: 81 have just seen
DIR. John Clark Ridpath, the editor of
the Arena and cousin OF James Rid
path. He has consented to use his in
fluence with the members of the lower
house to further the interest of the
National Sanitarium bill and he will
write Chas. A. Towne of Minnesota,
. who is his personal friend and who is
now in Washington. He will also have
Senator Turpie see all the members Of
the lower house from that state.
"Trusting we may win out in the
house, am, yours truly,
r. F. CoNNQR.'
Thus the good work goes on and
friends of Hot Springs from all quar-
ters are putting in good work for the
Home bill.

daily becoming more unJenaUle. IIOro-
over, his rival intruders are becoming
uncomfortable, especially since funds
have run short and the outlying prov
inces have become disaffected. AL
though never much more than a figure
head, Aguinaldo has been consistently
temperate, and the authorities have no
reason to fear that he will depart from
this policy.
Nevertheless the native newspapers
continue to publish infiammatory
articles. The Republica Filipina yes
terday published an article headed "The
Moment Has Arrived"
"When the conference terminated it's
labors." says this paper, "the Fipinos
had already conquered all of the island
of Luzon and the adjacent islands, ex-
cept the towns of Iloilo, Cebu, Layte
and Samarillo Therefore, Spain has
ceded authority which she did not
possess. The Fllipinos will never con-
sent to the ignominy of being treated as
chattels. They will shed their blood in
torrents again before bowling to foreign
dominion, however light.
America brought the great chief
Aguinaldo from Hong Kong and recog-
nized our nationality by allowing our
flag to be raised at Corregidor island,
and to sail the bay in full sight of all
the foreign fleets. None dared to inter-
fere. If America now declines to openly
acknowledge our independence great
injustice will be committed. Had Spain
asked $4O,0O0,OO0 for the islands, the
Filipinos would gladly have given twice
that amount or more rather than lose
their rights, ruthlessly set aside by the
enemy, without true understanding of
the aspirations and sacrifices of those
who have stood torture enough and who
are left to fight and suffer in defense Of
their country from slavery"
In conclusion the article affirms til +,
friendship OF the Filipinos for An.el l.
leans, insists that the insurgents will
never fire the first shot, and adds that
the harmony existing will only be broken
by priests or traitors inducing the
Americans to attack us.

TREATY is IN SIGHT
Du0Ho1oaoaOnOno nonOn0Donoaoi
PEACE PACT PRACTICALLY COM
PLETED AT PARIS.

Only Secondary Subjects Now Under Dis
cussion-No Decision Reached by Span
ish Representatives Regarding Coaling
Cation In Carolines.
PARIS, Dec. THE peace of Paris is
practically an accomplished fact. Tues
days session disposed of the essential
features of the treaty, which will be
embodied in the following articles:
First, the customary preface Of treaties,
in the nature of an expression Of amity
and of hope for perpetual peace; second,
the REIMBURSEMENT by Spain of her SOW
ereignty over Cuba; third, the with
drawal of the Spanish troops; fourth,
the REIMBURSEMENT by Spain of her SOW
ereignty over Porto Rico; fifth, Spain's
cession of the Philippines; sixth, the
withdrawal of the Spanish troops there;
seventh. payment by the United States
of $4,000, 900 for the Philippines; eighth,
the provision for the "open door COM
mercial policy in the Philippines.
The rough draft Of the treaty, which
may be considerably changed, covers
the proposals. It makes q long docu-
ment, which Senator Davis of the Unit
ed States peace commission says will be
found to be one Of the most interesting
papers of its character ever written. So
complete are the details of the eyacna-
tion Of the Philippines stipulated, that
a commission, such as arranged for the
Spanish withdrawal from the West In
dies, will be unnecessary.
Among the questions not yet settled,
however, are the coaling station and re-
ligious freedom i'll the Carolines, the
Spanish commission not having replied
to the American offer. The Americans
have agreed to transport the Spanish
prisoners home, including the garrison
and sailors at Manila, captured by Ad-
miral Dewey and General Merritt, as
well as the soldiers and civilians held by
the Filipinos, whose return the Amer
leans have guaranteed. AS compensa-
tion, Spain promises to liberate all Gu.
ban, Porto Rican and Philippine poit-
ical prisoners Also the Americans
have rejected Spain's request for free
shipping for 10 years in Cuban and
Porto Rican waters.
There are still under discussion eight
secondary subjects, which the Spanish
commissioners broached last week. The
American commissioners handed to
Senior Montero Rios written reply
covering these questions. There will
probably be no joint session today, as
the Spaniards desire time to consider
the document.
