CUBAN CUSTOMS REVENUES.
The Cabinet Discusses How to Apply
Them for the Benefit of All the ISL


Washington, Jan. 1.-THE cabinet at
its meeting Friday gave special con-
sdermtiOn to the administration of af
fairs in Cuba. There seems to be a
misunderstanding among some of the
people of Santiago as to the policy of
the government with respect to the
expenditure of money collected from
internal revenue and customs sources.
lit is not believed that Gen. Wood. who
is in command at Santiago, misunder-
stands the purposes of the govern
ment, but nothing will be done in the
matter until Gen. Wood arrives here.
Then an effort will be made to arrive
at some general plan for the handling
of the receipts in the island. 1t seems
certain. however, THAT all money dis
bursed must come through "a central
head and that under no circumstances
can any particular city or section be
allowed to eXpend all of it's collections
to the neglect of other sections.
Gen. Wood, however, will receive a
proper allowance for Santiago prov
ince, but full consideration is certain
70 be given to sections which collect
nothing or little from customs.

1t was to Nine. Renaudin, her aunt,
that Josephine owed her first marriage
TO Alexander de Beauharnais, at the
age of Is. 1t was merely an alliance
of convenience, so that the unhappiness
of the young couple was not surpris-
ing: but in the end the union turned
out better than had been anticipated,
and through it all Josephine was loved
and respected to the last.
There is no doubt :hat during al.
those years OF storm and stress of the
wonderful life she led in France Jo-
sephine always looked to Martinique
with affectionate remembrance.
The people of her beloved island, in
memory of its most famous woman,
have erected one of the most beautiful
statues of modern times, and it stands

The shah of Persia owns the most val
liable arm chair in the world. 1t is Of
solid gold, inlaid with precious stones.
A. one time some of the stones were
stolen from one of the legs of the chair,
and the indignant shah ordered the ar
rest of a number of his servants and
held the keeper of the furniture re-
sponsible for the loss, with the intima~
tion that if the thief were not discov-

The culprit, being eventually found,
was forthwith beheaded and his head
carried on a pole by the imperial body

She Shoulders When She Realizes the
DANCER and Pain of Child bearing.

There is so much suffering and danger
in store for the young mother, that her
happy anticipation soon gives way to a
feeling of dread at the thought of the
pain which she must undergo. This
constant fear so preys upon the mind OF
many women that it fills them with ter
TOR and makes baby's coming a source
of the greatest anxiety and dread.
All the suffering and danger of the
ordeal can be avoided by the use
of Mothers Friend" which prepares
the body for this important event. 1t

other unpleasant conditions which ex-

women praise "Mother's Friend" for

WHERE CAN 1T BE TRIEDe
The Sharp Issue Between the Two High
Officers of the ARMY.


1t is said by persons who may be re-
sarded as authorities in military law
that in its present phase the contro-
versy between Generals Miles and
Eagan is not one that will admit the
calling Of a court of inquiry This is
entirely apart from the question of the
right to call a court-martiaI In the
latter case. under the strict rules of
military law. the court would be Obliged
TO take under consideration certain spe-
cihc charges, such as an attack upon a
brother officer, and would not be per-
United TO go beyond that matter to the
extent of inquiring into the truthful
ness of the charges made in the at
tack.
The court OF inquiry. however. as its
name implies. has a broader field of ac-
ton. and might without being bound
closely inquire into all the facts not
even combining its inquiry to the officer
alleged TO be the offender. but perhaps
-as has been known in the past-to re-
turn a finding that involved the court
martial OF more than one officer In
other words. a court Of inquiry in a case
like this, If il found reason therefor,
could fndict for trial before court-martiaI
both of the parties to the controversy.
However. the best opinion is that at the
present phase a court of inquiry is be-
yond reach
1t has been known for a month past
that bad feeling existed between the
commanding general and the commits
sary general OF the army. YET such has
been the effect through military dis
cipline that before Thursday this had
not manifested itself openly. 1t is true
that the two men have not come into
S!sse contact frequently, and their reIa-
