THE P4crF1cAr10N oF cUBa.

If the truth is told, and if the Span 1ards can occupy Cuba little longer, it seems certain that the island will be "pacified" The Havana correspondent of the London Chronicle writes that "the church registers alone show over 400, 900 deaths in western Cuba for four teen months" and western Cuba is the section of the island upon which the Spaniards have been most successful in maintaining their supremacy. Most of these 10000 deaths were from star vation and it's accompanying pesti- ience,'' and thousands have died in the small towns while many more have sought a refuge from the ravaging troops in the woods, and died there" This correspondent claims that 'in Santa Clara province alone n, ,S47 deaths are officially recorded Photographs which this correspondent says he has taken "show pictures far worse in con- parison than those sent from famine stricken India" The rural population, furthermore, will be entirely wiped out" unless substantial aid is at once forthcoming Besides starvation, the population is now threatened with a terrible epidemic which in at least two cases has been pronounced to be a mild form of the bubonic plague.
 Even more distressing statements sul, who has written to the state de- partment: You have no conception of the situation. Fully 6O0,000 have died I mean the reconcentrados-f from Jan uary 1 to December 1 of this year even the Spanish soldiers in his vicinity are starving. "rhey come to the con- sulate begging for food, just as do the reconcentrated paciflcos." The most horrible stories of death by famishing may be culled from these consular re- ports to our government and, according to an estimate of the presidents Cuban relief committee, there are now 100000 who are in actual danger of death by starvation"
 Spanish history contains mitch that isn't pleasant reading, but there are few chapters in it more unpleasant than the latest chapter on Cuba will be.

q essary functions while being carried about without any exertion on its part. It can attach and detach itself instanta- neously, and holds so firmly that a di- rect backward pull cannot dislodge it without injury to the fish. The Chi nese, who have successfully trained the cormorant and the otter to fish for them, have taken the remora in hand with the happiest results. Several good sized specimens having been caught, small iron rings are fitted to their tails. to which are attached long, slender, but very strong, lines. Thus equipped the fishermen set out, and when a basking turtle is seen, two or three of the suck CTS are slipped overheard. Should they turn and stick to the bottom of the sampan, they are carefully detached by being pushed forward with the inevita- ble bamboo, and started on the search again. At last they attach themselves to the supine turtle. Then the fisher men haul in the lines, against which gentle suasion the hapless Chelone struggles in vain. Once on board the lugger the useful remora is detached, and is at once ready for use again. m Chambers Journal.

THE cURLY-HAIRED JUROR.

It is not generally known that there is we'll defined prejudice against curly haired men whensit comes to choosing a jury to try criminal cases. The preju- dice, when 1t IS manifested, comes from the defence. When asked to explain the objection to curly-haired men, a promi- nent practitioner yesterday said: When I was just starting my legal mentor inculcated that idea in me. He said that curly haired men had almost in variably been the pampered darlings of their parents, and in their youth had been so used to having their own way that they had come to believe that ev- erybody on earth was wrong except themselves In this way the seeds of opposition were, sown, and when they grow older they make 1t point to dis agree with everybody and everything. If everybody else on the jury votes for acquittal they vote for conviction, as a matter of course. They live on com bat, and are as stubborn as the days are long. A curly-hared man never gets on the jury when am defending a man if can see him in time. ."--New Orleans Times-Democrat.

THE Mo4HEm OF ooLoNE1s.

Virginia is called the mother of presi- dents and she may yet be called the mother of colonels. The legislature of Virginia has increased the governors staff to eighteen, which will enable the governor to make eleven more colonels and will enable eleven more Virginians to be colonels. That the supply of col onel material in Virginia is not running short is indicated by the fact that there are already one hundred and twenty five applicants who want to be made colonels. As the new law provides that the colonels shall be no expense to the State the great number of applications shows that there are many men in Vir- ginia whose hearts beat high for un
 adulterated and unpaid military glory. It is a good sign for Virginia. Gen tlemen may cry peace, peace, but there is no peace," said a famous Virginian. As there is none, a good stock of col onels is a good thing to have around, and Virginia will be safe as long as she has colonels enough and men enough who are only prevented from being col onels by the fact that there are enough.

length, following the old original turn thinks that if such road is ever built it should be built by the State, as a State road, thus insuring, not only uni form width of road, but uniform meth- cd of construction, let under the very best and most advantageous condi- tions. The obligation on the town through which this road would pass should be the one of keeping the road in proper repair. A road of this kind would be a source of great convenience and profit to the whole State. He would not, however, recommend any abandon ment of the general plan now in force of improving the main roads between the towns. He would still continue this same system, only on a more liberal basis towards the towns.
 Commissioner Macdonald and those who are cooperating with him are good men for good roads, but we notice that in some parts of the State a demand is springing up for bad men for good roads. Many think that convicts can not be better employed than in improv- ing the roads, and the argument for so employing them seems to us to be un- answerabIe. Such work would be as good for the conyicts as 1t would be for the public. In mending the public ways the convicts might learn to mend their own, and if they didn't they would at least be useful. Bad men for good roads is very taking cry.

country.

The late George N. Wilcox, of Brad- ford county, Pennsylvania, left each of his grandsons $1,0O0 on condition that they support the Democratic party dur ing life. Failing, the money was to go to the Democratic national committee. One thousand dollars was left to the granddaughters, provided they married loyal Democrats.
 This will raises some interesting ques- tions. It is being contested on the ground that the legacies are tempta- ton or bribe for the advocacy of par ticular political creed, contrary to the genius of our government and institu- tions. It might also be added that the bribe isn't anywhere near big enough. A thousand dollars is very small conn pensation for being a Democrat, or mar rying Democrat

GOOD ROIDy.

The report of MT. Macdonald, the State Highway Commissioner, is full of interest and encouragement to those who have long waited to see the good roads movement move. It is moving now, and it is so we'll started that there is no reason to doubt that it will keep moving until the whole State is improv- ed and beautifed by it. The commits sioner's enthusiasm and industry are accomplishing much. The work could not be in better hands. and the State is very fortunate in having such intelli- gent, zealous and faithful service as he is giving it.
 One of the most notable suggestions made by the commissioner is that of a trunk line road, running from south to north and from west to east across the State, of uniform width, the entire

ing beyond the one under 1t till 1t seerrl- ed a wonder it did not look top-heavy Under the buckle were thrust the quills of bunch of ostrich plumes, which curved up along the line of pleats and overhung them at the very top. The effect was fine, the snowy softness of the plumes giving the dressy touch that nothing but white does give these days. From the back the toque looked like an inviting violet toboggan slide, top ped by a curly white toboggan that had just been launched for a downward swoop.
 When every one must admit that the picture hat is too elaborate for ordi- nary womens wardrobes, and when the erstwhile simple toaue is cutting such shines as those described, majority of women must build their hopes on the sort of hat that is described as medium sized. In that very characterization is inferred lack of distinction, but be comforted by the thought that the pie ture hat is tabooed because it is too dis tinct, and be assured that hats of mod crate size may be made quite distinct enough. It was an attractive model that was sketched herewith Of black felt, its fiat crown was encircled with band of blue velvet. For trimming there were several black wings in ad- dition to wired and pleated taffeta, a similar arrangement being put on each side and held in place by large rosettes of bluet chiffon.
 This picture also shows pretty col larette, one that will be very success ful in adding a dressy touch to the plain blouses that are now so abund- ant. It was composed of bands of lace insertion and strips of pleated chiffon. These were attached to the chiffon stock collar. FLORETTE.
