How to Polish Brasswork.

The simplest means Of Frightening
brass is to cover it with solution Of
oxalio acid in soft water, made in pro.
portions of an ounce of acid to a pint Of
water. When the metal is we'll covered
with the fluid, polish it briskly with a
wash leather. It must be noted that
this oxalio acid preparation is poison
and very strong in it's effect upon the
brass, SO do not advise that it should
be used too often or be kept where ire
sponsible people could reach it. The
bottle should be labeled "Poison."

THE WISDOM OF IT.
That There Was No Recognition of a
 So-Called Cuban Government.

New York, July 20-A special to the Times from Washington says the ad- ministration is now well satisfied that congress in passing the declaration of war refused to recognize the govern ment of the republic of Cuba. When the resolution was under consideration the friends of the republic made rec ognition an urgent consideration; some insisting that to declare independence without recognition of the government of the republic would be empty friendship to extend to the insurgents. The Cuban help the United States has acknowledged repeatedly, but re- cent reports from the camp at San tiagC and that neighborhoOd impaired confidence in the Cubans and their fitness to assume the responsibilities of government even in Santiago
 The Cubans at Santiago seem to have anticipated the presidents proc lamation when they selected General Demetrius Castillo to be governor oi Santiago as soon as the city was captured. There was no consultation with the commanding general of the United States forces, no consideration of the people of Santiago, no announce
 
 poses would be. The Cubans expect ed to develop strong opposition to the sentiment Of President Mckinley E proclamation setting forth what is ex- pected to be done by the United States in the captured province of Cuba. The president does not propose that any Cuban city shall be footed by troops of the United States or their allies The first effort will be to restore as fully as possible the opportunities oi all the residents to resume their GUS tomary avocations.
 Be they Cubans or Spanish they are to have a chance to take up the avo- cation dropped when war compelled 2 suspension of business. Then the city will be kept clean. Neither Gu. ban nor Spaniard can be depended upon to do this. Cubans might a.
