BALLOONS FOR SEA SCOUTS.
Joseph fIeischnaan Suggests Idea to
Navy Department.

Joseph FIeischman Suggests Idea to
Navy Department.
Joseph Fleischman of New York has
suggested to ex-Assistant Secretary of
the Navy Theodore Roosevelt the use of
balloons for extended marine observa
ton. He says the suggestion has been
laid before the naval board of strategy.
Under clear skies observers on ship
board. aided by the most powerful
glasses, can cover horizon range of
only 80 miles Mr.. Fleisohman suggests
that balloon capable of sustaining sew
eral observers should be carried by the
larger scouting cruisers, such as the
Yale and the Harvard. Whenever deem
ed advisable, these balloons could be
raised from the vessels decks, secured
by stout cables. From the balloons to
the deck telephone or Geographic com
munication should be established. The
balloon could rise to a height to cover a
much greater range than the best glass
es.-New York Herald.

A JUST REBUKE.
The Spirit of Dewey is Abroad
in the Land, and Men
Resent Insults.

On Saturday evening. at Hagers-
town. number of persons were gath
cred at the Pennsylvania company's
waiting room, and a stranger of tough
address and insulting manner ap-
preached the tie ct agents window,
asking or rather demanding money of
the agent, Mr.. Houser. The request
vas not granted, of course. and
vas reiterated in manner still
more uncivil and offensive. Again
the demand was not complied
with, and the stranger grew
still more abusive. Upon that the spir-
it of George Dewey arose in the agent.
md walking around through the office
ioor to the place where the abusive
stranger was standing, he smashed"
the offensive fellow and proceeoed to
use him up generally in true American
lyle. The stranger, in the course of
the battle, seized and held the watch
chain of Mr.. Houser, and took it with
him as he made his escape and jumped
on the train. Mr.. Houser followed
him thither and after some more exer-
ZION forced the ruffian 10 give up the
watch chain.

Cold, Damp Weather Ag-
gravates the Disease.

Cold, damp and disagreeable
weather is dreaded by those sub
ject to Rheumatism, for the slight
est change in the atmosphere or
temperature is sure to increase
their suffering. A great many
who experience little difficulty
from Rheumatism during the
summer months are likely to be-
lieve themselves rid of the disease,
but with the first cold, damp day
their aches and pains return and
they soon find themselves firmly
in the grasp of their old enemy,
who tortures them more than
ever.
Several years ago was afflicted
with what the doctors called Sciatic
Rheumatism or Lumbago, suffering the
most intense agony at times, and being
confined to my bed about year, al
though four of the best physicians Zone
Of whom was my father) attended me
during my illness. They could give me
only temporary relief, and think they
tried about all of the remedies known
to medical science, dosing me with
strong medicines until my stomach got
in such a condition that could digest
nothing, and neither myself nor friends
had any hope of my recovery | was
persuaded to try S. S. s., and before
finishing the first bottle, found that /
had the right remedy. / continued to

TAKING CONTROL OF cuba.


With the entrance of American
troops into Cuba to take control OF
thecisland, Cuba enters upon an
other era of its history and the
United States formally begins its
first great experiment in adminis-
tering the affairs of an alien people.
The experiment involves the exer-
else of control by military force,
not only as the most expedlent but
as the most efficacious way of meet
ing the problems involved. So far as
may be, the United States will try
to do essential justice to property
rights, as guaranteed by the ex-
isting laws, and make the transfer
ence os legal systems with as little
injury to individuals as possible.
But between the time when laws
can be formulated for Cuba and
the present there must be an in
,terim in which the government
must be conducted by the arbitrary
use of sovereign power.
1t is not yet known what are the
exact limitations imposed upon Gen
Lee and his suJJrdinates in their
control of Cuba, Tut in the nature
of the case the powers granted to
the military rulers must be very
large. From now until the time
when a legal code shall have been
perfected the decision of all queS-
tions is ultimately referable not to
any legal system, but to the men
clothed with authority by the
United States. 1t would be obvi-
ously impossible for these men to
counsel with the government at
Washington upon more than very
small fraction of the number of
questions which will come before
them. Their powers, in majority
of cases, are plenary, save when
they are restricted or defined by
the precedents of international
usage.
According to the best-known pub
licists the inhabitants of a conquer
ed territory "must take the law
from the ruler de facto, and not
from the government de jure, which
has been expelled; but at the same
time this change of sovereignty is
not held to produce any change in
the rights of property, which by
the laws of nations are held in
violable, subiecs to the constitution
and laws of the government under
which they were acquired. The ex-
isting municipal law of Cuba will be
respected until a new law is formu-
lated to take its place, and the
governor-general need not interfere
with the operation of the lower
courts. Beyond these restrictions
the men now in control over Cuba
have authority which is limited only
by their own sense OF justic and
equity. The task they have to full
fill is, of course, one demanding the
hardest kind of work and the finest
kind of tact.-Chicago Record.
