The observer" New York (Evange-
lisD thinks intervention is needed and
that it must beforcible: AN island as
large as Ireland, lying almost within
sight of our shores, is being ravaged
as provinces were in the middle ages.
and there is no hope of anything bet
ter so long as Spain reigns there. The
problem before thoughtful men, who
simply seek to know American duty in
the premises, is, then, what form OF
intervention can be adopted which Will
be at once effective and tend least to
precipitate an armed conflict.
1t comes to this, then that intervention
is limited to one form, that Is, force
And under the peculiar conditions ex-
listing. the force must necessarily be
employed in favor of the insurgents. 1t
is the more inevitable because armed
intervention is the only thing to which
the Spanish Government can yield. 1t
is easy enough to say to the Sagasta
Ministry that it must end the insurrec-
tion or abandon Cuba. But it can do
neither unless compelled by superior
force. Neither it's military campaign
nor it's policy of conciliation through
the grant of home rule have any
chance Of success. Yet it must go on,
for the loss of Cuba, either as the re-
suit of military failure or of compro-
mise with the insurgents would mean
the handing of Spain over to Don Car
los"
The record-union., 1898-05-29

The "Watchman" Baptist Boston)
thinks Intervention entirely justif1able.
Our right to intervene in Cuba, on the
ground of self-interest and humanity,
is, to our way of thinking, indisputable.
Such intervention would be supported
by the generally received principles of
international law, and by the general
acquiescence of civilized nations. But
We must intervene to establish peace,
not to fight the battles of the insur-
gents, or to do what Senator Gallinger
in his speech advised, namely, to annex
Cuba to the United States. Such
motive would taint all our action, and,
in view of what we have said about
our action as controlled by the dictates
of humanity, it would put us in the
position of using humane sentiments as
a cloak for land grabbing. The United
States cannot afford to take any such
position. Armed intervention does not
involve the necessity of turning the ISL
and over to the insurgents, They have
not conquered it, and probably cannot
do so. If self government is to be es-
tablished, it should be set up by the
Cubans as a whole. The Presidents
course clearly shows that this is his
view of the situation. If Cuba cannot
be pacified without our engaging in war
with Spain, he proposes to have that
war thoroughly justified to the moral
consciousness of all Christendom."

IF the church classes all dancing

ton inevitably produces indiscriminate
approval The one is the child of the
other. The Christian is to learn how
to discriminate between the right and
the wrong use of faculties as between
the right and the wrong use of material
things. He may not put the body
above the soul He may not go to
dances and balls which keep the pleas

atmosphere and under such conditions
that the next day he is unfit for the
service of humanity and the fulfllment
of his true work in the world. He not
only may not go often to such abuses;
he may not go once. But the duty of
the Christian is not to put all dancing
under prohibition because some dancing
is evil; but to learn how to take this
natural and instructive element in mu-
sic and use it for human happiness and
human welfare"

The tilt of the hat over the eyes does
not seem to prove as popular as the
tilt at the side. Certainly it is not so
becoming. Some very smart looking
sailor hats shown at fashionable inn
porting house looked really quiet and
subdued, in spite of their trimmings of
gay silk and satin plaid, beside the ar
ray of French models decked out with
all colors of the rainbow and a half
dozen different garnitures The plain
sailor hats had merely a band of Tartan
ribbon around the crown. with num-
Der of outstanding bows at one side.
Many women are dubious about the Sc
lection of plaids for any purpose except
for children's wear. But with dark

are certainly bright and smart-looking
on their proper wearers, which does not
mean either gray-haired women or
