PORTO RICAN NATIVES.
they Are Hnrdworl<inE and Have
Charming Personality.

Charming PcrSOnuHt!.
The personality of the Porto Rican Is
q very charming one. Generations OF
i'll treatment have developed in him a
patient resignation which has about it
nothing of cowardice. Even now, with
liberty within grasp, nothing is heard
Of recrimination and none will be prac-
ticed. The same hospitality will be
offered to the Spaniard as to other ma
tions, and that hospitality is proverbial.
The social life Of the cities is identi-
cal with that of almost all other tropical
Spanish American countries. The mass,
in the cool of the morning, at which it
is to be feared religious thoughts are
not the only ones which fill the heads
of the youths of both sexes; the retreat
after shutdown where slim wasted.
dainty senoritas glide up and down the
plaza to the sound of a fine military
band; shopping by gaslight, which de-
velops into series of skirmishes be-
tween buyer and assistant dear to the
heart of the fair sex, and all occasional
ball at the captain generals palace,
where costumes may be seen which have
the undeniable stamp of Rue de Ia Paix,
and faces which have beauty that is
at once touching and enchanting.
Small features, large, black, lustrous
ewes and perfect oval outlines make the
criolla distinct improvement on the
sensual faced Spanish woman, and she
is of more refined instincts and gentler
disposition. AS mothers they are unex-
celled and literally sacrifice themselves
for the welfare of their children. The
capital, San Juan, being the seat of
government, is of course the social
center, while Ponce is commercially Of
more Importance and is on moro modern
construction and advanced ideas.
A visit to the rural districts intro
duces us to class of peasantry ground
down by unjust taxation. Living III a
hut constructed of palm branches,
matched with palm leaves, his clothing
a cotton duck suit from the New Eng
land looms and surrounded by a numer-
GUS family, usually in IA state Of nature,
he passes his day working in his patch
of corn OF sugar cane and his evenings
dancing the native danzas to the sound
of tho guiro and tipple. He can neither
read nor write and has not the facilities
afforded him for learning to do so, and
knows our country only by the dried
fish and rice it sends him for his con-
sumption.
His bette noire is the Spanish civil
guard, who patrol the country in mount
ed pairs, and whose boast is that they
never bring in prisoner alive. He pays
direct tax to the government in the form
of impuesto territorial, or assessment on
| the value of his farm, and the cedula,
or internal passport, and it has been
stated that these taxes amount to about
| 60 per cent of this net income. But he
is ready for emancipation and when
educated will prove a valuable and law
abiding citizen. -Independent.

In March, 1896, the sheriffs of the
territory which is now Tennessee took
a census of their own, and as there were
CO., 900 citizens Of proper age the terri
tory declared itself a state, proceeded to
choose a governor, a congressman and
Legislature, which selected two United
States senators. Congress, then in ses-
sion in Philadelphia, had received NC
information regarding the action in the
territory until congressman and sena-
tors walked in unlimited and announced
that a state had been born, had elected
its officers, made its laws and was run
ming on scheduled time.
Congress was disconnected and mott
fed the applicants that the sheriff &
census was irregular and they must
wait at least for an invitation before
they proceeded to sit at the federal ta-
bic. Upon second thought congress do
cided to be courteous, and on Juno /
admitted Tennessee, nearly three months
after she had become state by her own
action. This state, whose coming into
the Union was little previous, was
the third state in the Union to provide
O president for the Union and the first
outside the original 10, and with one
exception the only state south of the
Ohio and the James ever to furnish a
president, and she has provided three,
moro than any other state except New
York, Virginia and Ohio. - Boston

Its "Wills" and "Shalls,"

The use of "shall" and "will' in the
protocol is now arousing the curiosity
of linguists. Here are some examples:
"Spain will renounce;" "Spain will
cede;'' "The United States will occu-
py;" "Spain will evacuate;" each of
the two governments will appoint;"
"Those commissioners shall meet"
Each Of the two governments shall
likewise appoint" Commissioners
who shall meet" "Spain and the Unit.
ed States shall appoint" "The COM
missioners shall meet;'' "This treaty
shall be ratified - "Hostilities shall be
suspended" "Orders shall be given by
either government to the commanders.
The steady progress from twill" to
"shall" in the course of the document
can hardly escape notice. An exponent
of the "higher criticism" would have a
reasonable basis for saying that at the
middle Of the fourth article there is
change Of authorship. Or is it that the
strenuous effort to keep tho velvet glove
of twill" Oh the iron hand of "shall"
failed at that point and that the ruder
word unconsciously slipped in? If the
action of the two countries had been
consistently expressed Ey "will" and
the duties of the commissioners by
"shall," tho distinction would have
been logical, but there is no such con.
sistency. Springfield (Mass.) Repub-

Another hero of the war is to come
up as Il candidate for office so it is re-
ported and that is the brave, true heart
ed and kind Chaplain Charles o. Day
of Brattlrboro who went with the regi-
mcnt to Chicamauga and who endeared
himself in the heart of every man with
whom he came in contact, No man
could have done his duty more self
sacrficingly than he. He was ever
present amongst the sick and often was
wont to purchase from his own income

No man is more worthy for election to

loyal Christian gentleman. Moreover
in hoaoring him the men who represent
ed the Green Mountain state in the re-
cent war would be highly pleased.
