Americans Shut Out of the philippines,

As is well known, America was su-
preme in the Philippine trade from the
opening of the export business of the
island on large scale until within q
few years. The reasons for the decline
of American influence were largely the
drawing out of capital by the older
members of the great American trad
ing firms, and their leaving the bust
ness to younger members of their fam
lilies, who found themselves with
great responsibilities and q reduced
capital. Gradually English firms,
with abundant capital, succeeded to the
bulk of the business. The last Ameri-
can firms in Manila were crowded out
three years ago by Spanish intrigues,
caused blythe hatred of Americans
growing out of the Cuban troubles.
This overthrow was managed by the
thousand and one petty annoyances Of
legal machinery that the Spaniards
e1erted against American FIRMS

Russia's Priceless Jewels.

ga whole guide-book devoted sim
ply to the Hermitage could give no sort
Of idea Of the barbaric splendor of its
belongings" writes Lillian Bell, of
the famous st. Petersburg Museum,
in the Ladies' Home Journal. "Its
riches are beyond belief. Even the
presents given by the Emir of Box
hara to the Gar are splendid enough
to dazzle one like a realization of the
Arabian Nights. But to see the most
valuable of all, which are kept in the
Emperor's private vaults, is to be re-
duced to state of bewilderment bor-
dering on idiocy. 1t is astonishing
enough, to one who has bought even
one Russian belt set with turquoise
enamel, to think of all the trappings
of horse-bit, bride, saddle-girth,
saddle-cloth and all-made of cloth of
gold and setin solid turquoise enamel,
with the sword hilt, scabbard, belts
and pistol handle and holster made of
the same. Well, these are there by
the roomful. Then you come to the
private jewels, and you see all these
same accoutrements made of precious
stones-one of solid diamonds; an
other OF diamonds, emeralds, topazes
and rubies.'

The scalloped wings are padded

the wings outlined with double row

The reason why ships are not struck
by lightning is attributed by German
authorities TO the general use which
is now made of wire rope for rigging
purposes, as well as to the fact that the
hulls of ships are usually constructed
OF iron or steel Thus the whole ship
forms an excellent and continuous con-
ductor, by means of which the electric
ity is led away into the ocean before it
has time to do any serious damage.

James Whitoomb Riley tells quaint
story Of his former lecturing partner,
Bill Nye. II was the opening OF theiS
joint season. They had both been rpsti-
eating during the vacation and were
brown AZ berries. Nye looked much like
an Othello In his sunburned mako up
and Riley suggested to him the applica-
ton OF some Liquid white, a cosmetic
much affected by the gentler sex of the
profession. ..... ...,...
Nye sent for the preparation, and
never having used anything Of the kind
before he filled the palm Of his hand
with 1t and carefully smeared II over
his countenance. There was no mirror
in his primitive dressing room, and
Riley was identifying himself ON the
other side Of the stage.
The "liquid white" dries out some
what like whitewash, and when Nye
appeared before tho audience he was q
sight to behold. His head looked like
frosted top piece on wedding cake
His face, white ~ the driven snow. was
exprossionless and blank. The audience
shrioked. and when he came of from
his first selection they demanded HIS
reappoaranoe. Ho obliged them to howls
of laughter. Again he made his exit,
and again was redeinanded by the up
roarious audience.
Believing no had made hit, he was
about to return to the stage when he
was caught by tho arm by Mrs, Nye,
who cried, william Edgar Nye, wha.
have you got ON your FACET iH..
Nothing but its usual expression,
my dear. "
Expression Fiddlesticksl You're q
fright" cried his wife, and leading
him to where there was u piece Of broken
looking glass showed him how he
looked. U
Nye WAS mortified, aud catching
sight of Riley, just about going on the
stage, no would have undoubtedly fol-
lowed him on and been revenged but
for tho Intervention of Mrs. Nye.
His head was soraped, combed and
washed, and his next selection was read
without "a hand" from the audience.

MARRIAGE OF OFFICERS.
The ArLies OF Europe Have Various Rules

me Arnies OF Europe Have various Rules
Regulating II.
The restrictive conditions at present Ina
force with regard to the marriage OF
officers In the Russian army forbid this
privilege under any circumstance In the
case Of officers under the age Of 30. Be.
tween the ages Of 80 and 28 years the
dot Of an officers wife must amount to
sum representing the minimum in.
come Of 800 rubles yearly.
On comparison Of these conditions
with those regulating the same question
In other European armies IL may DO
noted that in tho Austria Hungarian
army the number Of officers authorized
to contract marriage IL limited by fix
cd proportion assigned to each grade.
and, these totals being reached, all fur
ther marriages must be deferred pend
ing the occurrence Of vacancies In tho
married establishments.

fix the income Of tho hancee at q mini.
mum OF from |, 200 TO ., 900 lire, would
appear TO bo more rational In their
operation. Italian officers, however, ap-
ply somewhat liberal Interpretation to
this law, with the result that the num-
Der Of marriages occurring under actual
provisions does not exceed more than an
