Worcester has pretended to be city, like New Haven, but the Worcester Telegram thus complains: With Wor- cester the center of trolley district, that will soon include the entire central part of Massachusetts, with openings toward Boston, Springfield and Provi- dence, and with half a million patrons to be satisfied, there is not one trolley parlor car in Worcester, not one con- fortable car to be chartered for excur- sions, picnics, weddings, concerts and theater parties. If party charters a car, they get wreck from the hospital barn that is as likely to break down in the woods as to get to it's destination. Trolley parties in com fortable cars are features of life in cities that have decent street railroad companies, but Worcester is forced to do it's trolley riding packed like sar- dimes.

A walking match of seventy miles took place a couple of weeks ago in Germany between eight Vegetarians and fourteen meat eaters. The first to reach the goal were six vegetarians; next the other two of that class came in, after having gone four miles too far by mistaking the road. Only one meat eater made the winning post; the oth- CT thirteen broke down on the way. vegetarians are making all they can of this, and want army rations regu- lated accordingly.

It is related that after the fall of K1artoum in 1885 an enormous quan- tity of stores had to be destroyed, ow- ing to the want of transport. Among them were about a million rounds of ammunition, which was ordered to be thrown into the Nile. The duty of Su- perintending it's destruction fell to General Sir Herbert Kitchener, and when 1t was finished he found to his disnay that the contents of two of the boxes thrown into the river were not ammunition, but ten thousand gold sovereigns apiece, about $100,000 in all. It is hardly probable that any attempt will be made to recover the lost treas ure when the expeditionary forces reach the spot for after lapse of thir- teen years it must be buried beyond all hope of recovery in the mud of which the bed of the Nile is composed.

The Lancet is authority for the statement that there has been invented recently a new variety of false teeth which grow into the jaw, and in the experiments already tried both with men and dogs, the device has attained considerable success. The teeth are made of gutta-percha, porcelain, or metal, and at their roots have holes. Holes are also drilled upward into the jaw and the tooth placed in the cavity. From the patients jaw soft grant, lated growth makes it's way into the holes of the tooth, which gradually hardens and holds the tooth in firm position. Dr. Zamesky is the origina- tor of this new method, and claims that his experiments have met with sue cess.

The Cuban Government.

War and rumors of war still continue to float.
but thus far there is o reason to believe there
will be declaration of host;lities between the
United States and Spain. The court Of inquiry
into the destruction Of the Maine will probably
report during the coming week. and then we
may expect to hear something more definite as
tn the probable result.
1t is thought in any event that Congress con-
templates recognizing the independence ut Cuba
at no distant day. As the recognition Of Cuban
independence hinges upon the making Ut some
show OF established governmental that country.
we will sta for information Of our readers that
steps have already been taken in that direction.
In September. 1895, the first attempt ut the
Cuban Revolutionary Government was mnde.
but it has had precarious existence. and has
not made much headway until very lately. The
recent administration was installed at Yaza ON
the Goth of October. 1897. and it has shown hope
full backbone during it's five short months of ex-
istence. The officers are as follows: President,
Barcelona Masseo; vice-President. d. Mendes

eign Affairs. A. M. De lie Tore; Treasury. Ern-

Somewhat Of sensation has been ere
sted this week by the announcement
that Mcssrs L. NJ Smith, E. W. Ted
die, j. M. Dufilho and J. E. Dunn, have
entered 582.11 acres of fine river bottom
land, right in the middle of the lands
held by Mr.. j. H. McNeely. andto which
it was thought he held title. The claim
is made that the government has never
before parted with this land, and big
Law suit will probably grow out OF the
proceedings. A fine gin house and many
substantial improvements are situated
on the land designated. Also it is alleg-
ed that there are 57.69 acres OF public
school land Immediately adjoining, to
which McNeely has no title. These lands
are alleged to have been in cultivation az
part OF the Calhoun estate, although
Calhoun never had any title to them.

Our Constitution Makers

The time of the constitutional conven-
ton is now more than half gone, and yet
the first Of the three main objects COM
mitted to it has not been disposed of sat-
isfactorily. The question naturally arises,
if it has taken forty days to formulate
the plan of suffrage not yet disposed OF,
how long will it take toremodel the ju-
dietary and arrange an educational sys-
tenn? We understand, of course, that
these measures are being more or less
considered all the time, and that toward
the last the convention. like all other
law making bodies, will rush things to a
finish; but it is matter Of doubt wheth-
er undue haste may not cause some i'm
portant matters to he neglected or over
looked.
We take no stock in the great burrah
that has been raised over the suffrage
propositions. rs we believe there is intel
ligence and honor sufficient in the con-
vention to arrive at a correct solution Of
the problem. We favor both the educa-
tional and property qualifications, as were
proposed in the late defeated amend.

be recognized under our constitution
and. in all elections where the property q
women is to be taxed, they should be al
lowed to vote in the matter.

A Chicago dispatch says that
Admiral Miller is likely to be the
first governor of Hawaii. Such an
appointment will be hailed with
satisfaction by this paper and the
majority of the people of Hawaii.
1t would be an acceptance of the
principle that whole-souled Amer
icanism shall be the handspring
of the official life of the territory.
Give the people an American
governor, free from the narrow
selfsbness and petty jealousies of
Hawaii's past, and this territory
will assume at once its proper
position as an American territory
with a body polite united and
loyal in its support of the official
ruling power.

CONSIDERED NEUTRALITY.

With a view to obtain a more
complete understanding OF the ex-
tracts of letters from President
Dole to Minister Hatch published
in the official organs statement of
defense on Saturday, the BULLE-
TIN propounded several questions
to President Dole this morning.
It was noted by the BULLETIN
that the letters were addressed to
MIR. Hatch personally, and did
not pass through the hands OF
Minister of Foreign Affairs Coop
err. Diplomatic correspondence
which is regarded as positively
stating the attitude of govern
ment is usually conducted b, the
official in charge of the foreign
department, by direction Of the
chief executive. These are the
questions:
Were the personal letters from
Mr.. Dole to Mr.. Hatch binding
upon the Hawaiian Executive ?

The official organ of the Hawai-
ian government will be given full
sway to send to its friends in
Washington or anywhere else its
defense of the local government
on the neutrality question. The
neutrality officials and the official
neutrality organ have admitted
the vulnerable and questionable
character of their action. The
guilty hearts after several weeks
of deliberation have responded
with a weak official statement con-
tanning extracts from personal
letters and sidelights of studied
Misrepresentation both of the
BULLETIN and certain business
men of Honolulu. The official
organ labors under the amusing
misrepresentation that the BULLE-
TIN has played all its cards. Hav'
ing obtained the first installment
of an official admission Of guilty
neutrality mind, the BULLETIN
viii take its time in handling the
official organ puppet, and place
before the people few historical
facts which have not been com
mented upon by the official organ.
The friends of the BULLETIN may
send copies of this historical re
view to Washington or not just as
they please. 1t will simply deal
with honest facts and proper con
illusions.

Tbi. report was signed by SEN
ators Baldwin, Wright and Rice,
and it was acted on March 81,
when on motion of Senator Bald
win the item for the maintenance
of the Asylum was raised from
$4,000 to $4,000 as suggested by
the Committee. On the same day,
also on motion of Senator Bald
win, new item was inserted in
the bill and passed for $4,000 for
the electric light plant. A long
discussion then ensued on the
subject Of the $25, 900 item for the
proposed main building, but no
motion was made to insert the
item in the main appropriation
bill as 1t seemed to be the unsni-
nous opinion of the Senate that
as the item was for a new perma-
nent improvement it properly be-
longed in the Loan Bill, which at
the time the Government had not
presented.
L have searched the records
carefully this morning and can
find no mention of the item again
during the session and it does not
appear in either the House amend
ments to the main appropriation
bill or the loan bill. l am firmly
convinced that both Houses fully
intended to pass the item in the
loan bill and that it was forgotten
entirely and not 10 the rush at the
end of the session.

mittee of the Senate, on whom
some blame for carelessness may
be attributed if the facts are not
made known, 1 ask you to give
this explanation the same publici.

the same matter.

NOT LOST IN THE SHUTTLE.

EDITOR BULLETIN Concern
ing the item for a new building
for the Insane Asylum, which is
stated in your iesue of last Friday
to have been "lost in the shuttle"
after it's passage by the Legisla-
ture, permit me to say that the
item never even passed either
House, and that the statement
purported to have been made by
the Attorney General that "An
item for a new main central build
ing for the Asylum was inserted
in the Appropriation Bill for $780,
200 and passed the joint COM
mittee of both Houses and then in
some way became lost in the final
revision of the bill in the great
rush at the end Of the season" is
incorrect.
The facts as shown by the re-
cord are these: Representations
were made to both branches of the
Legislature as to the urgency of
more accommodations at the
Asylum, and special committees
were appointed to visit the place
and make recommendations. The
committees went together and
agreed to make similar reports.
On March 2lst the Senate Com
mittee reported in part:
1.-THE Asylum has capacity for
90 inmates. At present they have
LOG inmates and the number has
been steadily increasing. In
order to make room for them some
of the guards have been obliged
to give up their rooms and sleep
in town or somewhere off the
place. There is a great need for
new and properly constructed cells
for the bad cases of insanity who
have to be confined separately,
especially at night. The build
ings are all of wood, and the prin.
cipsl building is becoming much
decayed in parts. Your committee
after consulting with the Board Of
Health in regard to the matter
recommend that the Legislature
appropriate $4,000 for a new
fire-proof building to be built Of
concrete with an iron roof. We
also recommend that the Legisla
ture appropriate $4,000 for the
purchase and erection of an cleo
trio plant at the Asylum. We
would also recommend that an
additional amount be appropriated
for the maintenance of the Asy
lum' and that it be increased t.
$4,000. 1t will be necessary t.
make some changes on the prem
Uses, such as fencing, etc, tina
will require this increase.
