b. Fay Mills ON InrersoJI.

Benjamin Fay Mills said a good word
for Col. Robert G. Ingersoll at his Hollis
street theatre meeting Sunday evening in
Boston. MI. Mills was talking on the sub
ject, 'Who is the Infidel?" and after say
ing that infdelity depended on the point
of view, he mentioned Col. Ingersoll and
said: much that was called infidelty
when Ingersoll commenced his ministry is
today accepted by intelligent orthodox
ministers. We cannot define infidelity to-
day because we cannot define orthodoxy.
1t is orthodoxy that changes after all, and
it is never alike in two centuries, scarcely
in two generations. In our time it differs
with countries and even sections of the
same cuontry."
Mr.. Mills read quotation from a letter
to show that Ingersoll's mission in life was
''to pluck from tender, loving hearts the
fear of hell, and then said: "And say
that if that has indeed been his ambition,
while l do not agree with all of his opin-
ions, his mission is nobler Que than that
of anyone who believes an eternal hell
and does not sweat drops of blood in sym
pathy, and give his life in unceasing eff
forts TO rouse men from it. In the light of
today 1t is far more religious to disbelieve
in God who administers place of never
ending torture than to believe in the divine
permission of permanent evil everywhere
in the universe"

The Killing of Captain Buckley O'Neiii.

The most serious loss that | and the
regiment could have suffered befell Just
before we charged Bucky O'Neill was
strolling up and down in front of his men,
smoking his cigarette, for he was inveter-
ably addicted to the habit. He had a
theory that an officer ought never to take
cover-a theory which was, of course,
wrong, though in volunteer organization
the officers should certainly expose them
selves very fully, simply for the effect on
the men; our regimental toast on the
transport running, 1.-The officers; may the
war last until each is killed, wounded or
promoted" AS O'Neill moved to and fro
his men begged him to lie down, and one
of the sergeants said, Captain, bullet is
sure to hit YOU" O'Neill took his cigar
cite out of his mouth, and blowing out a
cloud of smoke, laughed and said: "Ser-
geant, the Spanish bullet isn't made that
will kill me-" A little later he discussed
for a moment, with one of the regular
officers, the direction from which the Span
ish fire was coming. AS he turned on his
heel bullet struck him in the mouth and
came out at the back of his head; so that
before he fell his wild and gallant soul had
gone out into darkness From 1.-THE

welt, in the April Scribners.

When banana tree is eleven months
old it shows a blossom among the tuft of
leaves at the top. The fruit stem follows,
and then the bananas begin to grow-up in
the air and not downward, as we see them
shown at home Three months later the
bunch is ready TO harvest. When that time
comes a native, or more likely a coolie,
strikes with his machete as high up as he
can reach, cutting the tree halfway
through at a single blow. The top of the
tree Tops oyer, and the bunch of bananas
is caught and its stem is severed. Such
thing as ripe banana we did not see in
the miles upon miles of plantations through
which we passed.

To see one-perhaps l ought to say the
one-peculiarly characteristic bit of local
life and color you must drive out along the
country roads on day or Tuesday,
the Jamaica wash days, and see the native
women washing clothes by the waterfalls
and in the streams. Every now and then
you may find one or two at their work but
for the full effect wait until you find a
group of them. This effect a party of
half-doze of us came upon one afternoon
as we drove toward Golden Vale plantation
few miles out from Port Antonio. AS
we came to a branch of the Rio Grande
river we halted while two coolie men re-
paired and made ready the queer contriv-
ance in the shape of ''pontoon" which
was to carry US over. AS we came near
the bank negro woman tucked her skirts
about her body and waded in at the fording
place just below the pontoon. The current
was strong in the deepest part, but through
and over she went, one hand at the heavy
load on her head and the other keeping her
clothing above the water line. man and
boy with back loads of bananas came down
the bank from the other side. The man
stripped off his neither garment, the boy
tucked up his single covering, and through
they came in the same way.
In the near foreground, where the water
quickened just below the ford, big lusty
woman, black as the ace of spades, stood
knee deep in the stream, scrubbing away
"to beat the band" At that particular
moment her only article of attire was
single white garment cut decidedly de-
collete in neck and sleeves. What voice
she had, and how she lifted it up when a
too-venturesome member approached her
with his camera and tried for a snap shot
Ten or twenty rods farther down the
stream among the rocks was a group of 10
or 20 women alternately scrubbing clothes
in the water and gathering them into a
great wad and beating the wad ON stone
with a big, broad paddle till one wondered
whatever could be left of the clothes What
a jabbering there was among themselves,
and then what an uplifting of voices, what
a scampering, and what shrieks of pretend
ed fright, of scolding, and of derisive
laughter, as the camera fend drew nearl
1t was the one picture that would have

To estimate the size of Mr.. Cookers an
nual income has hitherto been a matter of
guesswork. So it is now, yet the calcula-
tors have more data than before Lawyer
Moss got the imperial boss upon the stand
Mr.. Croker told the lawyer that his profits
from the firm of Peter F. Meyer & Co. had
been S25, 900 or $50, 900 a year for six or sew
EN- years. Take those figures as a starter and
guess at the mans other income from all
sorts of enterprises into which he is ad-
mitted on favorable terms because of his
political power, together with his stock
speculations on the "tips" of Wall-Street
political friends, not TO mention possible
blackmail upon vice in the city through
Tammany hall when in power, and the
personal revenue Mr.. Croker receives an
nually must be enormous. 1t is very con-
sentative to say that his income is $780,
600 year. DO you doubt it? Well, Mr..
Croker has an assistant" named Carroll
in running Tammany hall, and Carroll ad-
mits under oath that he left a $500 clerk
ship in the courts to become Mr.. Croker 5
aid at no salary at all. Now Mr.. Croker
must "divvy" somewhat with Carroll in
order to pay the latter for his services, and,
of course, Carroll with Croker gets an in
come much greater than his clerkship sal
airy. In his most profitable years Mr..
Croker may make 100000. 1t is entirely
safe to call him millionaire.

No. IL All Right.

The career of George C. Boldt, the ho-
tel man, who has decided to build So
10000 hosiery in Philadelphia, is strik-
ing refutation of all the talk about the
number IS being unlucky, for that num-
Der has been identified with every import
ant step he has taken in a long time. The
first house he lived in in this city was To-
Gated at No. 1921 Chestnut street, where
Wanamaker's store now stands. Mr..
Boldt married young lady who lived at
No. 1918 Green street; lived for several
years at No. 1918 Locust street, aud bought
house at No. IS North Thirty-fourth
street, which he used for many years as a
laundry. Another important step was be-
coming proprietor of the Waldorf Hotel
In New York, which is Is stories high, and
now he is to build hotel in this city
which will be IS stories high. In no in
stance has this been by design on the part
of Mr.. Boldt, for, as he explains, 1t all
simply happened so.-[Philadelphia Rec

He Believes that the -UnItedl9 States
should Have. support of All. Parties
In Philippine Contest. 3HN
John Barrett, former United States
minister to Siam, who has just arrived in
London from Manila, emphatically de-
clares that the gloomy forebodings ex
pressed in some quarters relative to the
Philippines are not justified by the facts
4" The United States naval and military
authorities" he says, "have done every
thing possible in the diff cult and excep-
tional circumstances, aud the united sup
port of all parties in the United States at
the present juncture would enable them 20
bring matters in the Philippines to quick
and lasting settlement, honorable to the
mother land. Should the Flipinos, how
ever, who are kept well informed, acquire
the idea that prolongation of hostiities
would affect politics in the United States
advantageously to them, the war would be
more prolonged"
With regard to the statements that the
Minnesota volunteers and others wished to
return to the United States, Mr.. Barrett
said he had talked with the officers of all
the regiments, and with many Of the men,
and that, while they would welcome a re-
turn to the United States as soon as their
places could be effectually filled by regu-
lars, there was no such feeling as one of
INSTRUMENTATION, dependency or dscon-
tent. On the contrary, all were actuated,
he asserted, by intense patriotism, and not
man wished to leave the Philippines I'M
til he had seen the campaign through, or
could leave the work to regular troops.
In the opinion of Mr.. Barrett, the Fill
pino, as soon as he has had time to digest
the recent successes OF Gen. Otis and Gen.
Lawton, and to become convinced of
American superiority, will settle down to a
life of peaceful and progressive citizenship.

CHIEF ENGINEER TURNER
Makes Some Recommendations Concern
ing the Fire Observation-Disclosures OF
Fires for the Past Year.


ing the Fire Department---RecOrd OF
Fires for the Past Year.
The annual report of C. C. Turner,
chief engineer of the Brattleboro fire de-
paTtment, which was not submitted In
time for publication with the report of the
other village officers last week, shows that
the total force of the department is 103
men, organized into two steamer COM
panies with hose attached, two hose COM
panies for the hydrants, one hook and lad
der company, and one chemical company.
Mr.. Turner makes the following sugges-
tions: The two steamers should be in
spected by man from the factory, and re-
paired at once. The repairs on other APP
paratus can be done here. There should
be some repairs made on the steamer
house. There have been no repairs on the
reservoirs this year. The one on Cedar
street should be repaired at once, and
those on Washington and Canal streets
recovered. The fire alarm is is good con-
dition, but the boxes should be painted
this year. The hydrants should be painted
this year.
81 would recommend that both steamers
be put in good condition. and instead of a
straight chemical engine, which the village
voted to buy last year, that they buy a
combination hose wagon and chemical,
which will carry 1000 feet of hose and have
one 60-gallon chemical tank. Also that
the old ladders be replaced by three extern
sion ladders, and new locks for big extern
sion."
A record of fires for the past year ac-
companies the report. The department
was called out six times, but on one of
those occasions there was a false alarm.
The estimated property loss was $40, 746;
the reported insurance involved was 49,
300, and the reported insurance paid was
S20,671.
