FELL INTO A WELL. A Child Killed While Playing in His
 Fathers Yard.

While playing in his fathers yard at Twenty-fifth avenue and Texas street yesterday afternoon Walter Leslie Korch- nick, a two-year-old boy, fell into a well and was instantly killed.
 The boy had been amusing himself out of doors while his mother kept watch of him through a window. He went to an unused well which had been dug recently but abandoned because no water was found. and removed the boards which covered it. His mother missed him from the yard and went in search of him. When she saw the cover had been taken from the well she surmised that the boy had fallen into it, and found that her supposition was correct. Neighbors were summoned and the child taken into the house. Dr. Simpson was called. but the child was dead before he arrived. The doctor signed death certificate. so the body was not taken to the Morgue and an inquest was waived.

Especial Correspondence

Slowly but surely the conviction that
the United States should acquire a
great colonial empire is gaining
ground. When President Mckinley
urged the congress TO declare
ity's sake and incidentally to
avenge the Maine, the popular impress
sion was that the conflict would be
over in a few weeks. that Cuba would
De declared an independent republic
and that we would demand q money in
demniry from Spain just sufficient TO
defray the cost of the campaign
Everything was to De done for the sake
of humanity. for the starving recon
centrados and the brave Cubans who
fought against fearful odds for the
precious boon of liberty

scheme :nto Smithereens was gallant

Manila bay before Washington had
had time to think what should be done
toward obtaining a foothold in the
Philippine islands. Then Capt Glass

islands; Gen Shafter and Commodore
SchIey conquered the eastern end of
Cuba. and Gems Miles and Brooke have
Puerto Rico at their mercy now. As
