tarsier may best be described as having
face like an owl. and body, limbs and
tail like those Of monkey. His sit

TO KEEP LOVE IN THE HOME
Man and Wife Must Live Simply, Hon.
estly and Frankly On .
High Plane.

In the first months of married life,
love is so sufficient, and loving so sim
pie, that there seems no other need in
life. But by and by, when care begins
to shadow them. when duties present
themselves. and, strangely enough,
conflict with each other. when con-
| victions clash and tastes differ. then
both husband and wife begin to realize
that back of love must stand what l
have called STEADY and sturdy moral
qualities patience. honesty.
sincerity and magnanimity. Indeed, on
these depends the very continuance Of
love in marriage. for it is not possible to
70 on loving unless that is found which
is worthy of love. say this advisedly.
l know the world is full of men and
women who think, either because they
like to think so, or sadly. because they
must, that one can love where one does
not respect. 1t seems to me that this
does not ennoble ones ideal of love.
One may pity, may have an infinite
yearning tenderness over what one can
not respect. but love is of royal birth
and recognizes only what is as royal as
itself. The way, then, to keep love Sc
cure in married life is not so much to
be anxiously watching and guarding
lest it should escape. or crying that love
has spread its wings because the first
holiday romance is replaced by graver
feeling. but by living along simply and
honestly and frankly together, on
high plane. looking most and always to-
ward whatsoever things are true.
whatsoever things are honest. whatso-
ever things are just, whatsoever things
are pure, whatsoever things are lovely,
whatsoever things are of good report
Then love will be not a captive. but a
most willing guest.-Heleh Watterson

Volunte CTS in Cuba To Be Transported
 to the United States. ns

Washington, March 1s.-The president has become interested in having the volunteer troops in Cuba hurried out of the island before there is any danger of infection from yellow fever. *hf
 He has given important instructions to the war department upon this matter, and the quartermaster's department Is making a great effort to secure transports and have them ready to embark troops within few days. It is desirable to have all troops destined for southern camps landed in the United States before April 1, when the quarantine regulations of the south will make 1t very difficult to get them into this country. The quartermaster' department has started several transports for Cuba which have not been in active service of late.
 Arrangements have been made with the Ward line steamers to carry troops to the United States and the Plant line steamers have been secured for the purpose. Gen. eral Humphrey, chief quartermaster at Ha- yana, has been ordered to prepare himself and volunteers for authorization, and there will be no delay when the ships arrive

PARKER. .
 John L. Parker has withdrawn from the mayoralty contest, and the race is now be- tween Ross c. Smith and w. M Drennen.
 It Is conceded that MT. Parker's with drawal will materially strengthen MT. Smiths candidacy. Addison G. Smith, who was MT. Parker's campaign manager, has joined the supporters of Ross c. Smith, and was in conference at that gentleman's headquarters last night.
 Among the other prominent Parker sup porters who are now in line with MT. Smith are M. J. Gregg, Porter Moore, James Weatherly, Daniel A. Green and many others. w. J. Pearce, campaign manager for Mr. Smith, is now more sanguine over the ultimate result than he has ever been. The best of feeling has always prevailed between the Parker and Smith forces, and MT Pearce believes a large number of the Parker supporters held MT. Smith as second choice.

 The name of c. K. Dickie was presented to the meeting and he was unanimously endorsed

 Camps Hardee, Jeff Davis and others tender their thanks to the members of the general assembly, Auditor White and Gov ernor Johnston for the passage of the bill extending additional aid to the indigent Confederate veterans, soldiers and their widows"
 After the passage of this resolution camp was broken to be reassembled at the call of the commanding general.

Concludes the Taking of Testimony at

Kansas City, Mo-, March 1S.-The army beef court of inquiry concluded the taking of testimony in Kansas City this afternoon when an adjournment to meet in Fort Leavenworth, Kan, in the evening was taken.
 Several witnesses were examined as to the two condition of the two lots of beef returned and rejected at Mobile and Jack sonville and returned to this city in June and July last. The witnesses, all of whom were employees in this city of the Armour company, declared in effect that the meat so returned from the south that most of it had apparently not been opened, and that after reaching here and being re-inspected by the company it was replaced in stock. It was declared that all meat furnished the army during the Spanish war was dated and prepared with the utmost care.

 The Drennen people are making the claim that Mir Parker's withdrawal will help their man. B. NJ. Allen, campaign manager for MT. Drennen, gave out the following statement last night:
 Claim Seventy Five Per Gems.
 "Mr. Parker, in entering the race, was posed to the present city administration, which Is supporting MT. Smith. Parker's s followers were of that class of men who act on principle and voluntarily rendered him their support on account of their opposition to this ring. Now that MT. Parker has withdrawn from the race. we cannot see how this vote can consistently go to MT. Smith, In view of these facts. we expect MT. Drennen to receive 75 per cent. of the Parker strength"
 Well what do you estimate MT. Parkers strength to have been?' was asked
 we have all along conceded Parker's strength to be about 800; of this we expect to receive 600."
 "What is your opinion of the numerous claims which have been made in regard to this vote going to the other side?'
 "In all campaigns exaggerated claims are made by both sides, but the people are so accustomed to this kind of thing that they will not be deceived or influenced by any unreasonable claims or estimates. They will think for themselves and figure for them selves, and when they find out that both sides are claiming the earth they are very apt to form their own opinion as to who has the best title to it
