oh, bring the atlas, mother,
The big one bound in red;
Likewise a magnifying glass
To show the letters spread
Across the tinted page, mother,
Where criss-cross lines confuse,
For I'm going to read the news, mother;
m going to read the news.
And pray do not neglect, mother,
To get a gazetteer
And a Spanish dictionary:
These words are sadly queer
It's a fearful undertaking.
And It's giving me the blues
But I'm going to read the news mother.

Well he won't live very long unless he
reforms and puts his hulking corpus into a
civilized attitude and ceases to invite the
thunderbolts of the gods and the fists Of
men. If you mean. Should he be permitted
to live? certainly yes. Not that he Is fit to
breathe the vital air. Not that his hulking
corpus doesn't blot the daylight and invite
destruction, He should be permitted to live
simply with a view to prolonging his pun
ishment. Inc longer no lives unrepentant.

Hon. Chauncey NJ. Depew, who is now in
Paris, jollies the French people by saying,
THE United States will never conclude an
effective alliance with England. American
hearts are not with England. but with
France. Both republics possessing the
same democratic aspirations they can never
fail to maintain the most cordial relations. .
This is rubbish. There is no sort of af-
finity between the republicanism or democ-
racy of this country and the things so called
In France.

Now that the bill which the Senate has
passed providing for the taking of the CEN
sus in 1900 declares that all persons en-
ployed in the work shall be selected on ac-
count of special fitness without reference to
their political preferences" those who favor
practical business methods in public affairs
cannot complain. Still. some are doing so
because the civil-service commission will
not take hand in the matter.

The present war has emphasized the grow
ing tendency to speak of the United States
as America" The proper name and official
title of our country, as perhaps everybody
knows, is 1.-The United States Of America"
Viewed as a mere title it can scarcely be
called a convenient one, being somewhat
cumbersome and leading to grammatical
confusion in the use of "is'' and ARE" The
natural abbreviation of the name is the
United States, yet the United States Of
Brazil and the United States of Colombia
have an equally good claim to that title.
The only title that we have distinctive
right to is the United States of America, but
foreigners, especially Englishmen, almost
invariably allude to the country as America
and it's people as Americans. In reality we
are no more Americans than are the ma
tives of Canada, or Mexico, yet nobody
speaks of them as Americans. Our own
writer's and statesmen say "the American
flag" as if the United States were all of
America. This habit is more pronounced
now than ever before and has received a
decided impulse during the present war. 1t
is a tacit recognition of the fact that the
United States of America is-or are-the
only country in the Western hemisphere
worth talking about.

General Fitzhugh Lee has an article In
one of the June magazines on Cuba under
Spanish Rule" in which he compliments
General Gomez, the insurgent leader, for
having prolonged the war in the only way
possible for him, namely, by playing wait
ing game and fighting Spain's purse more
than her soldiers. He says Gomez never
proposed to fight if he could avoid it, be-
cause he could not well afford to lose a
man or cartridge, and that his ouly
chance of success lay in guerrilla warfare.
He says: NJ rr c-.o
His army, scattered over an island some
breadth of sixty miles, If all concentrated
upon a single point, would number about
$4,000 men, but, being entirely devoid of
bases of supplies and deficient in transporta-
ton and food for men or horses, to con-
centrate would be to starVe, and to fight
pitched battles against overwhelming num-
bers would result in the loss of the battle
and the loss of his cause.
This estimate of the numerical strength of
the insurgents accords exactly with Gen.
Lees statement before the Senate commit
tee, and Gomez's mode of warfare would
account for the difficulty Of locating any
considerable number of insurgents. Now
that they have been armed and equipped
they will probably operate in larger bodies.

ture occurred near the depot Tuesday

very severe manner. The attention Of
| the neighboring people was attracted
among whom were Harry Lyons and
John Brown. These two gentlemen's
sympathies were wrought up by the in
humane treatment Of the boy, and
interfered with the one-handed game
Brown snatched the whip from the old
mans hand and Lyons gave him 9
punch In the mouth straight from the
elbow, so the story goes. 1t was use
less for Andersen to retaliate by blows
but he resorted to the better and surel
| way of justice by swearing out com
plant against Lyons, charging hin
with assault and battery.

1t seems almost incredible that the
Spaniards should ever have considered
Cervera's feet superior TO anything we
could send against II. yet such seems
to be the case. II they believed the
comparisons OF the two navies made
by their newspapers they are logically
correct in their conclusion.
These articles, says the Chicago
Chronicle, written by Spanish naval
experts, appeal strongly to credulous
people and represent our warships rs
absolutely valueless. while their own
are simply marvels. A. de Canta, the
most popular naval writer in Spain,
makes remarkable comparison in La

titute OF that pride and enthusiasm
that control 6pahiards." For these
reasons. Mr.. Canta concludes: "Ths
