There has been great change in

Every generation has raised its girls

POINT OF LANDING.

land Of Cuba.
TAMPA, May Lieutenant W. H..
Lawton, inspector general OF the de-
partment OF the southwest, who went
to Key West Thursday for the purpose
OF holding conference with Admiral
sampson and making final arrange
ments for the cooperation OF the
bloclSading squadron with the mill
tary expedition from Port Tampa, re-
turned today and reported at once TO
General Shafter. II is almost certain
that the exact point OF landing has
been decided and probably the date of
sailing, but army officials absolutely
refuse TO give out any information
on the subject, merely saying that no
tice will be given 20 hours before the
time set for departure.
Captain j. IL. Dors I, aide of General
Miles, is expected 10 arrive in Tampa
in day or two from Cuba, where he
has been in communication with Gen
eral Gomez. IL is believed that upon
his report will depend il great
measure the number OF troops TO be
sent on to Cuba by the United States.
Unusual activity prevailed the Port

making necessarary alterations on

the strictest neutrality. Although inn
portuned. no favors have been shown
by IL 10 Spain while we have no
occasion TO ask for any The French
like the other European
powers, has thus far maintained an
honorable attitude, and it must be our
aim to give 70 ~re OF the European
powers the slightest cause TO depart
from that position, for their conduct
will be guided TO great extent by our
own.
The position OF the emperor OF Aus
tria has been made very trying one
in this conflict His personal sympa-
thies are most naturally with his rela-
tive, the queen regent OF Spain,
while officially he is prevented from
giving her more than sympathy.
While it has been asserted that he had
subscribed a large sum 10 the Spanish
war fund, such is in fact not the case.
Emperor Francis Joseph is a very hon
orable man, who would not do in pri-
vate what by the laws Of nations he is
forbidden to do in public. BESIDES it
is very questionable If he has any
large sum OF his disposal. A large
number OF relatives are more or less
dependent upon his charity and he al.
ways finds more outstretched hands to
receive than he has means to give.
Therefore the queen regent OF Spain,
well aware OF this fact, will hardly
expect support TO any great extent
from her uncle. while on the other
hand, Emperor Francis Joseph may be
depended upon not to violate the laws
Of neutrality as long as no cause
for doing so is given on our part. 1t
remains with us to hold the European
powers at bay and we can do it most
effectively by strict adherence to the
declaration made by congress and the
administration, "That the United
States hereby disclaims any disposi-
ton or intention TO exercise sover-
eighty, jurisdiction or control over
Cuba except for the pacifcatiou
thereof" In course Of time the Euro
pean powers will begin TO understand
that we strictly stand by what we say
and they will be forced to give us
credit for the honesty and uprightness
OF our intentions. Thus far we have
by our actions maintained the respect
OF the powers; now let us by strict
adherence to our declaration strive TO
obtain their good will also, for it is
better to have it than to do without it.
AS soon as we dspel the idea that this
war is one of conquest we shall
have none of the European powers

HONORS FOR PALMA.
wa Most Likely Become The President Of
Cuba When That Country Is Free.

wa Most Likely Become Ge President Of
Cuba When That Country Is Free.
WASHINGTON, May 9.-When the
new republic of Cuba is recognized
and it must be before long. there will
be an interesting question as to the
first president.
Many people have supposed that
General Gomez would take the posi-
tion occupied by Washington in tn e
United States and follow out mis- sue
cess as the brain and will of the revo-
luton by becoming the first president
Of the new republic.
1t is said, however, by Cubans who
are we'll posted as to the situation,
that in all probability when he has
once achieved the independence OF
his country, Gomez will return to pri-
vate life followed by the affectionate
regard of his countrymen.
He has an ambition to be known as
the great Hberator Of Cuba, but does
not care to become the civil chief Of
the government when it is established.
Gomez is an elderly man now, and be-
sides that he is a native of San Domin-
go, although he has lived in Cuba since
his childhood, married Cuban wife,
and sacrificed his beloved son to the
Cuban cause.
The first president of the new re-
public is more than likely to be Senior
Tomas Estranda Palma. He is the
delegate plenipotentiary of the Cuban
republic. In this capacity he repre-
sents the insurgents abroad as Ben
Franklin did General Washington
governme mt, and he is popularity
known as the Franklin of Cuba.
Estranda Palma now represents
more nearly than any other one man
the civil government of Cuba, and he
is particularly well fitted for that con-
dition, being straightforward, plain
spoken man, as honest as the day, and
possessed Of an exquisite native diplo-
macy, which has enabled him to rec
oncile all the different elements
among the hot-head Cubans.
Palma, like all the other leaders, has
been a revolutionist for the period Of
a generation Of men. He was secre-
tary of state, and for a short time
president during the ten years war,
and he was one OF the few who left
the island after the treaty of allegi-
anee to Spain. There were good rea-
sons for this. Toward the end OF the
war a small body of Spaniards cap
tured Palma's mother. They delib-
erately starved her in the hope that
he would come to see her, and thus
they could capture him,
As secretary Of state he had charge
OF the archives, and they hoped 10 se-
cure these incriminating documents.
Palma steeled his heart against the
temptation TO see his mother before
she died, and she was literally starved
to death within a few miles Of his
headquarters.
A few weeks later the fortunes OF
war brought TO his camp as prisoners
the men who had murdered his mother.
They were ranged up before Palma
for sentence, and Of course, expected

The attitude Of the German press to-
wards the United States, we are in
formed, has undergone remarkable
change 10 the last few days and the
friendly relations of today are in
marked contrast with the open or i'll
concealed hostility Of a week or so
ago.
Mr.. White, the ambassador Of the
United States az the court OF Berlin,
ascrihes this change in part to the re-
peated assurances OF the German gov
ernment that il would maintain the
strictest neutrality and most friendly

principally the Socialstic press, has

Another factor in this sudden change
OF front in the German press is the at
titude OF the Paris papers, which is
decidedly hostile to the United States
The French papers point out that this
war between the United States and
Spain is in fact a conflict OF the Latin
against the Anglc-Saxon race. The
press Of Germany has not been slow to
take this up and emphasize the asser-
tion that in such conflict all the sym
pathy Of Germany and the Germans
must Of right be with the Anglo-Saxon
race, consequently with the United
States, to which the commercial inter
ests Of Germany have pointed all
along.
This being the case we may now
rest assured that the German govern

man press are on our side in this
struggle to expand the domain Of free

John Thomas Kills Ed Franscon and
Gus Carbon for Revenge.

TOPEKA, Kan, May A special to
the Capitol from Maple Hill states that
Edwin Franscon and Gus Carbon. en-
p.oyed at f'owler's ranch. two miles west
OF that place, were fatally shot this even
ing by John Thomas. a former employe
at the ranch. Thomas Is said to have shot
the men as result of some trouble about
a woman.
Thomas went TO Fow.er's ranch about
O'Clock and shot Franscon with a Win
chester rife. He then returned TO the
hotel at Maple Hill and borrowed an over
cost and a horse. He then went 10 the
ranch and shot Carbon. Still, later he
came TO the ranch third time and took
a shot at the crowd which had gathered
In the vicinity. He has not returned the
horse nor the overcoat.
Descriptions have been tesegraphed all
over the state and the trains are being
watched. II is supposed. however. that
Thomas made his escape on horseback. A
posse has been organized and is securing
the country.
