Woman suffrage is fair subject for
discussion, but it has not yet got be-
yond it's academic stage. Every time it
invites vote it is beaten, and 1t is Of
ten beaten in a way which leads people
to believe that it is making no advance
in public opinion. If woman suffrage is
to succeed in the future, as its adher-
ents claim and doubtless believe, their
best policy is forbearance of tests for
the present, and the first step in this
direction indicated is that they cease to
carry it before the egislature.--Boston
Herald.

ward University Mr. Davis Is earnestly
fitting himself for future usefulness

Hauptmann as a poet formed the
subject of DIR. Schinz last lecture on
German literature Thursday at the
house of Mrs Blake of West street. DR.
Schinz regards "Hannele'S Himmel-
fahrt'' as the best among Hauptmann s
works, the simple, naive poetry Of child
successful way. The same qualities are
also to be found il die Versunkene
Glocke," whose deeper significance has
been the source of so much dispute in
Germany and elsewhere. Hauptmann,
who alone was in a position to speak
the authoritative word made no sign, a
fact which may probably be interpret
ed to mean that ne preferred that the
public should enjoy the work without
searching too deep for an rsoteric sense,
which even did it exist, would add but
little to the beauty of the poem,
In concluding, DR.. Schinz gave re-
sumo of the course. OF the three au-
thors, Keller was regarded as the great
est. His work. in the opinion of Dr.
Schinz, will always be read, because it
deals with men of all time. Sudermann
and Hauptmannn will, on the contrary,
pass away; they have written especially
for the present moment, but the social
questions of today will moi last all.

Of the Rodgers child was a very pecul>

in the neighborhood of Sunny Side.
Nearly three months ago the child
was attending a sick pet dog owned by
her family, and for a while the animal
acted strangely, but so far as known
atthe time the child was not bitten.
A few days afterwards the dog went
mad and was killed to prevent it from

NEW PENSION CLAIMS FILED.
The Present War Begins to Swell the AL.
ready Large List.

"A
ready Large List.
In the records at the pension bu-
reau, a search of which was recently
made by the Washington Post, is writ
ten the name of Ida NJ. Hook, widow
of William II. Hook, Company Second
Wisconsin Infantry, as an applicant
for bounty of S12 month from the
government. She heads the list of
seventy-two applicants, all who have
been heard from as desiring pensions
on account of services rendered in the
fifth war waged by the American peo>
pie. Mrs. Hook was bereaved early IN
the conflict and lost no time in seeking
financial consolation from Washing
ton. Private Hook enlisted May u,
1898. Two days later he was taken
sick, and on May 10 died at the mill
tary hospital of Camp Harvey, near
Milwaukee. Just three days later
May 49, Mrs. Hook had executed her
application for a pension.
While only seventy-two claims have
been filed up TO date, where there are
probably already 5000 or 1000 cases
with basis for pension claim, the
eagerness of all parties in any way en-
titled to compensation is demonstrated
in the second name on the list at the
pension bureau. That name is Eliza J j..
Tunnel, who executes a pension as
the widow of Elijah B. Tunnel, killed
on board the Winslow in Cardenas har-
Dor. But only a little further down
the list is the name of Sarah Tunnel,
who claims a pension as the dependent
mother of Elijah B. Tunnel. 1t is
certain that the pension bureau will
first investigate the claim of the widow.
Chief Clerk William H. Bayly sal d
that there were $4,000 applications
ahead of those who want pensions on
account of service in the Spanish war.
If all those were adjudicated in the or
der filed soldiers, widows !and depend
ent relatives of this war war would
have long wait. That is not proba-
able. Commissioner Evans will soon
create special division for the con-
sideration of pension claims growing
out of this war.

Bodies Are Left Exposed.
A press dispatch from Santiago says:
The bodies of the dead Spaniards con-
tinue to be cremated. Over seven hun
dred have been burned so far. This af-
afternoon seventy were to be burned.
Over two rail dozen bodies are stretch
ed, across them another dozen and then
about thirty corpses are stacked in an
immense funeral pyre ten high.
The pile is then saturated with kero-
seue and the torch applied. fall of
rain put out the fire, causing the bodies
to be only half burned. Around the
pile lay twenty-five collins containing
corpses in a state of decomposition.
Several naked bodies were strewn upon
the ground in a state of putrifaction.
Altogether, about seventy unburied and
unconsumed bodies lay around.
The authorities and cemetery officials
say it is impossible to get men to work
at the cremation. Wages of dollar a
day prove no inducement to the natives
to work at this gruesome toll. The ua-
consumed bodies will be left on the
earth until tomorrow, when the weather
may help the work of cremation.
These seveuty-corpses represent two
days dead from the Spanish camp. The
danger to the population from the

vultures and flies is incalcalable.

AN ALFALFA FOR NEVADA.

A very important discovery for this
State is the result OF the recent work
Of the Government agents in eastern
Europe and western Asia in investi-
eating plant life under climatic condi.
tions such as exist in Nevada. An al
falfa has been found which thrives
with great deal less moisture than is
required by the alfalfa grown in Ne
vada. Its roots search and obtain
moisture and need but slight assist
ance, and the plant becomes fully
established. The western deserts OF
Asia afford less moisture than is
naturally obtained by the soil Of Ne
vada without irrigation, and this fact
would tend to show that the alfalfa
grown there could take root and -four

vada without assistance or with but
slight assistance. BY means OF this
alfalfa land now considered worthless
