A Haunted Railroad Car.

Every one has heard of haunted
houses. but the railroad men know CT
haunted cars as well. For instance,
on the Louisville and Nashville there
is a caboose known as 1905" which
carries on in the most supernatural
manner. What do you say to caboose
that suddenly begins to shake and
shiver like a man with the ague, and and
this, too, when It is standing alone on
a track? Ny informant soleqnly as
serted, also that 1905" is subject to
attacks Of hysteria. 1t jumps up and
down without the slightest proyoca-
ton. He says it did the most remark
able thing, however, one day near
Richmond, Ky. 1t was standing or a
siding with all brakes set. All at once
it started and ran up grade. over an
embankment into a field.

Women in Business.

From the Free Press, Detroit, Mich.
Appointment business man recently ex-
pressed the opinion that thereis one thing
that will prevent women from completely
filling mans place in the business world
they can't be depended upon because they
are sick too often. This is refuted by Mrs.
C. W. Mansfield, business woman OF 5S
Farrar St., Detroit, Mich, who says:
"a complication OF female ailments kept
me awake nights and wore me out. Icould
get no relief from medicine aud hope was
slipping away from me. A young lady in
my employ gave me box of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. l took them
and was able TO rest at night for the first
time in months. l bought more andtook
them and they cured me as they also cured
several other people to my knowledge. l
think that il you should ask any Of the drug
gists of Detroit, who are the best buyers Of

Trade of the Philippines.

For several years, beginning with
1893, the imports from the Philippines
have been considerable The total
value of Philippine products brought
20 the United States in that year was
50, 159, S51. This amount includes suSar
TO the amount of nearly S3, 900, O0O lie
following year the imports were valued
at more than g., 900, 0O0, aud in the past
three years they have averaged over
S4,000,000. Since the imposition OF q
duty on sugar, there has been gradual
falling off in the importatians of that
article, and while III 1896 the imports OF
sugar were valued OF 81, 210, 902, III 1891
they amounted to only 81, 1919, 2O2.
Next to sugar the principal articles
imported by the United States have
been textile grasses. These amounted
in 1898 to over So, 600, 600, and in 1897
to more than SO, 900, 600.
During the same period, however,
the United States has sold little to the
Philippines The total exports IN 1893
amounted to S154,31S, and have not
reached that figure since In 1897 they
amounted to only SG4, ,j91. The chief
articles of export has been refined
mineral oils. Breadstutfs and manu-
factures have made up the remainder OF
a meagre list.
Spain, on the other hand, has en-
ioyed monopoly OF the tobacco trade
with the Philippines and has furnished
the islands with q greater quantity OF
manufactured goods and food products
than any other nation. Probably much
of this, however. was sent to the
Spanish forces. In 1896 Spain i'm
ported from the Philippines goods
valued in pesetas at 22,519, 994, and
sent to the islands goods valued IN
pesetas at 3S, 3577, 757.
Great Britain and France have also
maintained more extensive trade rela-
tions with the Philippines than the
United States. The total value of the
foreign trade of the Philippines in 1896,
exclusive of the trade with Spain,
amounted in exports to $50, S75, 900, and
imports to S10,G31, $50. These figures
will doubtless be cited as furnishing a
reason for the retention of the Philip
pines and strong effort to secure the
greater part of the trade now enjoyed
by Spain.

THE REGULARS AT SANTIAGO.

When the details of the fighting about
Santiago on Friday shall be given, it will
be found that it was, on the part of our
troops, the most determined and heroic In
modern times. From morning until night
under a broiling sun, in as difficult coun-
try as was ever fought over, the regulars
with courage, GOODNESS and persistency
never excelled, faced an intrenched foe I'M
til he was driven from his position. The
earthworks which were captured could not
lave been carried by an impetuous assault
for the reason that, If they could be
reached the troops making the charge
would have been annihiated. It was
struggle in which, foot by foot, the regulars
approached and enveloped the enemy,
crawling through the underground hold
ing one point with bloody grasp until an
other farther on could be seized Their
success was not one of superiority of num-
bers, but of superiority in intelligence, pluck
and all the finer qualities Of valor skill
and GOODNESS which constitute discipline. It
was the superiority of the discipline of the
American regular, which neither wounds
not death can appall, that won on Friday
at Santiago. Probably every field officer
in the regular regiments, most of the cap
tains and many of the noncommissioned
officers haG fought Indians. All of them
had been taught that presence Of mind and
GOODNESS in the face of death are the highest
qualities which men can possess. 1t is an
army which cannot be stricken by panic
or weakened in battle by skulkers. General
Shafter knew his army when he said that
he could carry the city in forty-eight hours
at considerable cost
Once more the regular army, officers and
men, have indicated their usefulness in
seasons Of peril. 1t would have been worth
more to the American people than can be
measured by dollars if, when war was de-
clared, the United States had sixty regi-
ments like those which assailed Ell Caney
on Friday, since with sixty such regiments
the war would have been ended now and
the Nation would not have been humiI-
lated by it's exposure of unreadiness. But
if we have not sixty regiments of regulars
let us be thankful that we had a dozen and
that the dozen were able to present to the
world spectacle Of the highest qualities
Of soldiership which has been witnessed
for years. Those few regiments fighting in
the world what we can do.
All honor to the United States arrny!-to
the rank and file which constitute it, and
to the officers who by example and skill
have discinIined iti
