So Says Colonel Hubbe1l, j ust Home With
His Regiment From Porto Rico.
CHICAGO, March IA special dis
patch to The Tribune from New York
says:
''The Porto Ricans want independ-
ence,' said Colonel A. M. Hubbell, COM
mander of the One Hundred and Forty
seventh regiment, upon his return from
Porto Rico.
Colonel Hubbell declared his belief
that an instruction of the natives of
Porto Rico is bound to come sooner or
later. He says every evidence of the
forthcoming uprising was given in
Porto Rico, especially in the latter part
of the stay of the regiment there. He
said:
''The demonstrations made at our de-
parture convinced us the majority of
the natives were glad to get rid Of us.
Our first difficulties on the island were
caused by our suppression of secret
society known as the Black Hand. 1t
was organized on the same lines as the
Ku-Klux in this country"
Says He Needs More Troops.
The Tribune also publishes CORE
spondence from Porto Rico in which
General Henry is made to say:
81 need twice the troops have. Be
cause of the easy victory of our troops
here in the war and the apparent friend
illness of the natives to the American
soldiers when they invaded the island
a notion prevails in the States that
there is little necessity for strong
orce to maintain order in the island.
The idea is erroneous.
''The conditions here are alarming.
These people have been given every op.
portunity but they have thrown them
aside. They are clamoring now fol
local self-government. They are nc
more fit for local self-government than
am to run locomotive. More troops
are needed in the island. The seeds Of
discomfort planted by professional agi
tators are rapidly growing and can be
kept down only by strong military
force"
The ill-feeling between the natives
and the American troops seems to grow
stronger every day.

asking for concession and notifying

within four days.
This note was couched in courteous

SHOCKING TRAGEDY.

Infant Child Cremated by the Act of an
Almost Infant Brother.
MARsHF1ELD, Wis, March 10 A
shocking tragedy occurred at Milladors,
a few miles from here, in which little
child was burned alive. Mrs. Erhard, a
widow, left her home to call on neigh
Dor, and locked her two little children,
girl and boy, aged and years re-
spectively, in the house. The little girl
went to bed and complained of being
cold. Her little brother thereupon went
to the stove, scraped few live Goals to-
gether and laid them on the bed beside
his sister. The bed clothing ignited and
burned the little one to crisp.

Kipling Learns the Truth.

New YORK, March 13.-Dr. Durham
has informed Rudyard Kipling of the
death of his favorite child. Josephine.
The blow was heavy one but the
father bore up bravely. The doctors
believe it was best to break the news
as the worry and the distrust he seemed
to have in all the replies given to his
queries about the little one would
have probably been more harmful than
to let him have the truth.

seems to me there would be revolt by
all enlightened people,
The great majority Of women are not
30 situated as to feel the weight OF the
law. A short time ago, at one Of the
clubs composed OF the favored women,
the protected and pampered, there
seemed to be general sentiment that
women had sufficient rights. Finally a
lady wearing widows veil exclaimed
in choking voice, but with flashing
eyes: after all Of you have been
through the Probate Court YOU will
understand what your rights are!'
Several recent court decisions may be
OF interest in showing tendency on the
part OF courts to give woman an equal
chanc, in constituting the law. A man not
yet OF age, in consideration OF promise
to marry him, agreed to assign the girl
5000, ten in bank. to be paid him
when he became Of age. The time hav.
ing arrived he did 80, but Lis numerous
creditors attempted to set aside the
assignment. Although the girl had not
yet fulfilled her part Of the contract. the
Supreme Court Of New York held that
the assignment was valid. and refused
to set 1t aside.
man in Indiana lent large amount
OF money to widow, which she used to
relieve her property OF membranes,
giving him her note for the money.
subsequently he married her and after
her death he endeavored to collect the
amount Of the note from her estate.
The Supreme Court held that she had
discharged all her indebtedness to him
when she married him.
Another man in Indiana kept q shoe
store and employed his wife az clerk.
When his business declined he borrowed
what money she had aud failed to nay
her wages. He became bankrupt and
she presented her claim az one Of the
creditors for the borrowed money and q
years unpaid wages. The Supreme
Court of that state held her claim good
and stated in it's decision that an agree.
ment to pay for services OF q domestic
nature would not stand. but that az
saleswoman he would pay her only what
ne would have to pay another, and
therefore bis creditors we're not injured.
Under the common law the wife could
not even have brought the suit; there
could be no valid csntract between
husband and wife and all her wages
belonged to him. II this decision de.
preciates the value Of domestic service
the blame must be credited to the
masculine minds Of the Supreme Court.
