Must HIVE Harmony.

Germany has its parvenus-that goes
without saying-as well as its peasants,
says the Chicago Record. One who falls
properly in both classes went into a music
store in Kiel the other day and purchased
an deliberately carved piano-the best in
stock. A week later he called again 10
order another, exactly like the first. The
dealer had no duplicates of the first, but
offered the same action" in a different
case.
1T won't do!' replied the peasant.
DO you have so much playing at your
house that you need two instruments? ?"
queried the dealer.
Nav; nobody can play at our house, -
was the answer; but we've got to have
such a box in the parlor, and now my
wife says the whole room will look crook
ed if we don't have another one exactly
like it against the other wall" The store
keeper nothing loath, explained that the
piano was from Vienna, and that it would
cost SIS extra to have a second one sent.
"Wcll, faint no natter said the purse
proud peasant; write and have regular
match come on"

Modest shipbuiIder CramD.

Charles ii. Cramp, the head of one of
the largest shipbuilding firms in the world
Is so modest in manner and appearance
the Philadelphia Record saws. that no
would attract but little attention in q
crowd of strangers. For period extend
ing over the past twenty Years he has
made many trips to Washington. and there
are no men of national prominence with
whom ne is not acquainted. The other dav.
while in reminiscent mood, he told MANY
interesting episodes of his contact via n
prominent men. 'At one time" said he.
Il met Sunset Cox, the famous New
York statesman. He was in PHILADELPHIA
at the time, making a political speech to
aid Sam Randall. A couple OF weeks later
l met Cox in Washington 1 addressed a
few pleasantries to him, and he advanced
quite lengthy argument in favor of a
certain foreign policy, to which I listened
without comment. Again, few weeks
later, we met, and Cox aired his views on
the financial question. AS 1 had much
business at the capital, 1 often met Cox
after that and he always entertained me
with his views on some prominent sub
ject. One day he saw me in the hail of
Congress and called me to him Look
here, said he, what paper do you CORE
spond for?' I'm not a correspondent, Mr.
Cox, l replied Well, then. who are your
I'm Cramp the shipbuilder.' The sur
prised ejaculation of Cox when he discov-
cred his error was more forcible than po-
lite After that we were quite good
friends"

Daniel Boone,s queer Dream.

At Ash Grove, in Green county, Missouri,
lives an Interesting descendant of the ia
nous hunter. Daniel BOone-Mrs. Nellie
Boone Frazer one of the early settlers Of
that part OF the county, says the Louisville
Evening Post. The Boones went to Green
county about fifty years ago and formed
a settlement near the present site of Ash
Grove. When that part of the county
was organized into - township It was
named Boone. in honor of one of the sons
of the great explorer of the Kentucky
wilderness. Mrs. Frazer is now 50 years
old. but one of the most vivacious of the
pioneer women of Southwest Missouri
Mrs. Frazer says that her grandfather
was firm believer in dreams, and tells
singular circumstance in connection with
the hunters career In Kentucky which led
the pioneer to attach more Importance to
the suggestions that came to him in sleep.
In one of his explorations in the wilderness
of Kentucky Boone lost a companion. They
has separated one day while hunting. and
at night the man did not return to the
place selected in the morning for their
camp. The hunter supposed at first that
his associate had pursued game too far for
his return that night, or that the man had
got lost in the painless forest. The next
morning Boone began to hunt for the
missing man and searched the woods hour
after hour without finding any trace of
his friend Finally. coming to the con-
clusion that the man had been killed by
Indians or become the prey of some wild
bearst, Boone left that part of the country
and went back to the settlement But he
could never entirely civ, up the thought
OF hnding some trace of the lost hunter.
1t weighed upon his mind with strange
persistence
Several years after the disappearance of
the hunter Boone went back to the woods
where he had parted from his friend. One
night while sleeping at his camp fire he
| dreamed of finding skeleton and a gun
in a big hollow tree. The dream was 50
! vivid that when the hunter awoke he still
had a distinct mental picture of the tree

night thinking about his dream. and as

GERMANY NOT PLEASED WITH
KAUTZ.

Notwithstanding the consent of Germa-
ny to refer the Samoan trouble 10 Joint
high commission for settlement, it is evil
dent that she is very sore over some
things which have been done by Rear Ad-
miral Kautz at Samoa, and because Of
these things she may make demands when
the commission assemblies that will great
~ increase the difficulties of making a set
tlement.
1t is understood that she feels that Rear
Admiral Kautz went beyond his instruc-
lions when he gave out the impression in
the proclamation he issued that the procla-
nation had the approval of the consuls
of all of the three Powers. AS mat
ter of fact, the German consul refused to
be party to the proclamation. Another
thing of which Germany complains is the
peremptory order given the German war
ship Fake, not to leave the harbor when
the American and British warships were
bombarding rebel towns. te,sn.
1t may be that Germany will be better
satisfied when she hears all of the facts.
1t is hardly probable that Admiral Kautz
a strain in the relations of this country
and Germany. 1t will turn out, doubtless,
that the proclamation did not convey the
impression that Germany agreed to the
statements which 1t contained, and that
there was not, therefore. any excuse for
the action of the German consul In issu-
ing a counter proclamation declaring that
Germany didn't approve the action of
Admiral Kautz ordering the troops of Ma
taafa to dispense. 1t was this proclama-
ton of the German consul which caused
Mataafa to refuse to obey the order of
Admiral Kautz, and brought on the con-
hict between Mataafa and the American
and British warships
10 may be that Germany has some
grounds for thinking that Admiral Kautz
didn't show proper respect for the Ger
man flag when he delivered a peremptory
order to the commander of the German
warship Fake but it would not be sur
prising If, on investigation, it should be
found that that incident had not been cor
rectly reported 1t is not reasonable to
suppose that Admiral Kautz would take
so important step without he was justi-
/ fed in doing so.
| Germany can, of course, find reasons for
delaying the settlement of the Samoan
question, but there are no good reasons
/ for thinking she has any intention of do
! ing so. She seems to be acting frankly
and fairly, and 1t Is probable she will
/ continue to do so.

THE NEXT STEP IN CUBA.

What is to be the next step taken in the
solution Of the Cuban problem? The Gu
ban assembly has been dissolved and the
army will be disbanded within the next
two or three months II will he disband-
ed just as soon as the men composing II
can be paid the 800 apiece which they
have been promised.
win the military government be con-
tinued until Congress decides upon the re-
lation which our government shall sus-
tain to Cuba or Will something be done
at once looking towards self-govern-
ment for the Cubans? It is probable that
the President and his advisers have Civ
en- this question consideration. If they
have. they have not taken the public into
their confidence. The Postmaster Cen
eraI and the Secretary of War have visit
ed Cuba and have observed the conditions
which prevail there, and no doubt they
are ready to give the President some adj
vice for his guidance in determining the
next step In giving Cuba a safe and stable
government.
Now that the assembly is out Of the way
Gomez seems inclined to urge the with
drawal of our forces at the earliest pos
sble moment. Only a few days ago he
represented himself as being anxious to
return to his home and family in San
Domingo. Now he seems inclined 20 stay
in Cuba and see what other thing for
tune has in store for him. II may turn
out that ne will prove more troublesome
than the assembly was. Doubtless he IS
anxious to be President of Cuba. He
sees, however. that a strong sentiment in
favor of annexation is growing up in the
island 1t is safe 10 assume that annex
alton doesn't suit his plans. lie cannot,
however, control the class of people who
are beginning to think that annexation
is the best thing that could happen to tne
island. They are the planters and the
business men who want liberal and sta
Bile government. something they know
they will have in the event OF annexation.
Gomez controls the people who have little
or nothing at stake. They are. of course.
the majority. But if the settlement of
the question whether the island shall
have sef-government or be annex
ed, rs put off for a year or two. even
Gomez could not prevent the people from
insisting upon annexation.
He understands the situation and there
fore is insisting that our pledges in re-
spect to the island shall be given effect
at once. He doesn't want the people to
have time to think of the matter. He
wants action while their minds and hearts
are turned in the direction of a republic.
Our pledges will, of course, be kept. The
American people would not consent to the
violation of a single one of them. but our
government isn't going to get out of Cuba
until the work it sent its warships and
armies there TO perform is completed
Gomezs ambition is a matter of no con-
sequence as far as our plans and pur-
poses are concerned. Our occupation OF
the island will cease when we are fully
satisfied that the people have sta bic and
enlightened government. It is impossible
to predict with any degree of certainty
how long it will be before we are satisfied
on that point

Prof. Bell, the inventor of the telephone,
does not think that the Marconi system
of wireless biography will ever amount to
anything. except over short distances. The
reason is that there must be a
straight line between the sending and re-
ceivlng stations. That Is why it was nee
essary to build towers more than 100 feet
high to send the messages across the
English channel. At considerable dis
tances the straight line. owing to the ro-
tundity of the earth, would go through
solid ground; and messages. according to
Prof. Bell, cannot be sent by a part air
and part earth route without wires.

He bought two gaudy scarlet coats,
Brass-buttoned, with green collars;
His knickerbockers made the bill
Close to 500.

Established well and thrifty;
And for his fee, in good hard cash,
He next put up a 80.
His brassey. cleeks ana putter fine,
The club with which to drive,
The bag, the balls and other sticks,

With shoes broad-soled with hobnails file
He next his feet bedecks;
For them he gave up in exchange
A crisp, new green-backed X.
For sundries, like a code OF rules,
White paint, rubber tee,
And books to tell him how to play,
He dropped at least a V.
At last he started out one day,
And as he hit the fence
Gee! some one heard the caddie say
