The scarcity of small bills seems to
be felt somewhat kaenly in Boston, ac-
cording to Sub Treasurer Marden, and
apparently the reissue of gold certifi-
Gates is more favorably regarded than
it was a few months ago. Yet the
present condition has been foreseen for
months and nothing has been done to
provide against it.

Cleveland is fast acquiring as evil a
reputation for lawlessness as ever
Pittsburg had. The history of labor
agitation scarcely records a more afro
cious incident than the dynamitirg Of
car filled with innocent passengers.
For the violence of the present out
break the inhabitants can thank the
authorities who manifested such dan
eerous weakness in temporizing With
the mob during the earlier strike.

Ingersoll reports of sermons in many
cities show a degree of charity and
temperate utterance that would have
been incredible a genera ton ago. The
change is decidedly to the credit of

Of the liberation exhibited, but because

them.
Jem's fellow celebrants had arrived
one had thrown package OF tirecrackers
aloft.
1t had fallen on the Toulouse roof,
sparks had dropped, Jem's gunpowder had

A fourth lay fiat. He got up with yell,

Jem turned to face one Of his fellow cee-

Literary News and Notes.

Major Gen. Francis V. Greene has
written for The Century Magazine the
only authoritative account of the military
operations at Manila yet offered to the
public. In the March number he will
describe the voyage of the second expedi-
tor, which he commanded; the landing
and intrenching of the troops on the main
land; and the interesting features of the
situation while Admiral Dewey and the
military officers were waiting for General
Merritt and the monitors. This chapter
includes a statement of the plans of Ad-
miral Dewey and General Anderson to
meet the crisis which would have been
precipitated if Admiral Camara's fleet had
reached the Philippines. A second article,
to appear in the April Century, describes
the means by which the insurgents were
removed from the American front, and
the thrilling events of the assault and sur
render, including the stop put to the de-
termined efforts of the insurgents to entel
the city. General Greene's part in the
| operations was conspicuous and varied,
and he describes his experiences with the
skill of military expert accustomed to
write for the general public.

IN curing this class Of diseases that the world
has ever known. His success IN curing such
complaints is astonishing, and a revelation
TO nerve-w eakened ana physically exhausted
men His treatment differs from that OF all
other physicians. He uses absolutely no
poisonous drugs. but achieves the most
marvellous cures by harmless vegetable
medicines, truly wonderful in their strength

you are one of the weak ones of the world, lay
your case at once before DIR. Greene, and your

"The Brown Mans Burden


A London cable to the New York World
contains the verses in Labouo here's Truth
parodying Kipling's THE White Mans Bur
den" They are as follows:
Pile on the brown mans burden.
To crafty your greed
60 clear away the "nlggers"
Who progress would impede;
Be very stern, for truly,
lis useless to be mild
With new-caught, sulen peoples,
Half devil and half child
Pile on the brown mans burdens.
And If ye raise his hate
Meet his old fashioned reasons
With Maxim's up to date,
With shells and dumdum bullets
A hundred times make plain,
ne brown mans loss must ever
Imply the white mans gam,
Pile on the brown mans burden.
Compel him to be free
Let all your manifestoes
Reck with philanthropy
And if with heather folly
He dares your will dispute,
Then, in the name of lreedom
Don't hesitate to shoot.
Pile on the brown mans burden,
And if his cry be sore,
That surely need not irk volt
You've driven slaves before.
Seize on his ports and pastures,
The fields his people tread
Go make from them your living
And mark them with his dead,
Pile on the brown mans burdens,
Nor do not deem il hard
If you should earn the rancor
VI those Ne y earn to guard.
The screaming of your eagle
Will drown the victims Sob
Go on through fire aud slaughter
There's dollars in the lob
Pile on the brown mans burden
And through the world proclaim
That We are freedoms agents
There's no more paying game.
And shonld your own past history
Straight in Your teeth be thrown,
Retort that independence
Is good for whites alone.
Pile on the brown mans burden
With equity have done;
Weak, Anticipated scruples
Their squpamish course have run.
And though It's freedoms banner
You're waving in the van,
Reserve for home consumption
The sacred rights of man.
And if by chance ye fal ter,
Or lag along the course,
IT, as the blood flows freely,
Ye feel some slight remorse,
HE We to Rudyard Kipling,
Imperialism's prop,
Aud bid him, for your comfort,
Turn on his lingo stop.
