WHEN ONE is YOUNG.

mnen one is young, what matters carer
FOR youth has mirth and joy to spare.
The future is blazing fire
mat nights the pathway Of desire,
ana uolng's but a name for dare.
what smiling masks the grim fates wear,
How amiable and debonairl
Inc pest seems easy to acquire
When one is young.
Youth is multimillionaire
hno tattens on the best of fare,
N Mhom all delights and naught can tire,
VINO treats the world as his empire;
But old age sets its fatal snare
When one is young.

A MURDERER'S STATEMENT.
John A. MOOrer Who Killed His Five Chill
dren at HutchinsOn, Kan, Claims He
Did 1t In SE3Ad spell"

Hutchinson, Kan, March 24.-John
A. Moore, who murdered his five chill
dren here last Monday morning, and
then burned the house over them, was
brought back from Mcpherson yester-
day morning There is still some
danger Of lynching. Moore made
complete statement before notary at
the Mcpherson JAIL, He does not ad.
nit in terms that he killed his chill
dren, but he does not deny it, and tells
rambling story about had spells"
that he has been subject to for some
years He saws that one of these spells
seized him on the night of the murder,
of which he claims to- have no recol-
lection.
Moore was taken before justice Of
the peace in the afternoon and waived
his preliminary examination. He
looks ten years older than he did the
morning after the murder, and his
former indifference is gone, He was
brought from the Jail and returned
without being handcuffed. He is now
in great fear of violence.

MILES BEING DOOMED.
Speculation on the Possibility of the Gen.
eral Being Candidate for the
Presidency.

Washington, March "a. The public
appearance of Gen. Nelson A. Miles in
Massachusetts,, where he is enjoying
the honor of numerous receptions,
has started speculation on the posi-.
bility of Miles as a candidate for the
presidency. Miles, it is said, as the
champion Of the soldiers jealous for
their welfare and safety. can be made
hero who has been Ignored by the ad.
ministration and punished for his pro.
testagainst the treatment of the enlist.
ed men who fought under every disad-
vantage in the tropics. The newspapers
which have been making such an out
cry against Alger and embalmed beef,
will, it is argued, join readily in put
ting Miles name at the head of their
columns Indeed, it is asserted that
the beef controversy has had no other
object than to make Miles a central
figure, who can command the votes,
not only of soldiers and their friends,
but of farmers and laboring men,
naturally prejudiced against the big
western beef mbinatiOns

A LAST MOVE FOR COLLINS.


Topeka, Kan, March "a As last
move, apparently, in the Collins case,
the attorneys for John Collins filed a
motion yesterday to set aside the de-
cision Of Judge Hazen, denying new
trial, and to postpone the decision
overruling the motion for a suffi-
cient length Of time to enable the de-
fendent to file bill Of exceptions.
IfJudge Hazen sustains the motion,
which it is believed he will not do, the
sentence to be imposed on John Col.
Inns will be postponed for an indefinite
period. II the motion is overruled it
will also be point gained by the de.
fense, for when the time comes to
apply for pardon for John Collins it
will claim that Collins was not allowed
an appeal.

THE NEXT SENATE.


Wash ington, March s5. In three
states the legislatures have adjourned
without electing senator to the
Fifty-seventh congress. The first leg
islature to ad journ without action was
Utah; next came Delaware and then
California. Delaware and California
each has q republican legislature,
Utah an anti.republican, II not an out.
right democratic body-so that the re.
publicans will lose two and the op.
position one, total difference OF two
on a partisan vote. In Pennsylvania
the legislature is still in session trying
to elect successor to Senator Quay,
but with strong prospects Of adjourn
ing without making choice, practi-
cally leaving three republican and one
democratic state but partly represent.
ed'in the next congress.
The republicans will have q total
membership in the Fifty.seventh con-
gress Of 81, exclusive Of a senator from
Pennsylvania, and not counting Stew
art, Jones and Kyle, who will vote
with the republicans on all questions
except silver. The total opposition
will number 35, which, with the va
cant seats of states having made no
choice, makes up the total Of
the 90 members OF the up
per chamber. This gives re.
publican majority Of l6 over
all, including Stewart, Jones and
Kyle in the opposition, and % when
they are included in the republican
column. In Nebraska a republican
succeeds populist; in Montana a dem.
ocrat succeeds silver republican, and
in Maryland, Wisconsin, New York,
North Dakota. New Jersey, West Vir.
ginia and Indiana democrats 20 out

THE PHILIPPINE cAl.PAIGN.


Washington, March "a. Officials Of
the war department say important
events will occur in the Philippines
within a week. Aavices received from
Gen.. Otis and knowledge OF the pro-
gramme Of the Philippines commission
ers bear out this expectation. From
now on the efforts of Gen. Otis will be
redoubled in bringing the adherents of
Aguinaldo to terms by force OF arms
and at the same time the commissioners
will endeavor to convince the inhabit-
ants OF the islands that the United
States, while it will suppress any
armed uprising against its authority,
is desrous Of establishing govern
ment that will provide for the largest
measure Of home rule consistent with
the ability of the Filipinos to exercise
it. 1t was the intention OF the admin
istrati0n to have Gen. Otis follow up
the announcement of the peace
commission BY an aggressive ad-
vance If the Filipinos did not come
forward in obedience to the terms
of the proclamation and acknowledge
the authority OF the United States.
Gen. Otis is preparing for general
movement of that character. This is
the campaign which, according to dis.
patches from Gen. Otis, is expected to
terminate armed resistance to Ameri-
can authority within three weeks.
The officials OF the administration are
hopeful that the proclamation Of the
commissioners will have good effect
In causing large numbers OF the Fiji
pinos to lay down their arms.
