We have had fairly good sugar

weather most OF the time this season
and the farmers have made quite 8
quantity of the maple sweet. The
warm weather thus far has not en-
tirely reduced the volume of snow
in the sugar orchards, which affords
them a long season.

Some miserable sneak thief
succeeded in appropriating to him
self two large hams last Thursday
night by breaking window pain in
Mrs. Lauer's store and reached the
meat that lay on the shelf nearby.
Another attempt AT robbery was
made on Tuesday morning by fitting
key to the door, but the robbers
were frightened away by Miss
Ada Meylert who lives on the Sec
ond floor, and hearing noise went
to one of the windows and gave an
alarm which aroused Thos. Beahen
and his guest Michael Sweeny who
arose and started in pursuit of the
two marauders who took fight up
King street and made good their es-
cape. If this kind of business con-
tinues, death is most sure to accom-
pany some of these robberies, and it
should.
AT the time robbers were trying
| to force an enterance in Lauer's store
at an early hour Tuesday morning,
the Jolly Twelve Club was in session
at Gallagher's lunch room. The eX-
citement of the hour destroyed their
joyous propensities and in their
homeward flight showed valor equal
to that of Fallstaff in going to war.
Frank "'knew his onion" and secur-
ed Gallagher's shot gun while John
accompanied one of his frightened
friends home and there provided
himself with narrowed tire-arm to
elevate his courage while making his
uncomfortable journey to the Second
ward. The club meeting has adj
iourned until some indefinite time.

He rrevaricated.

On his return 10 Washington lately frem
tour Of the West, Secretary Of Agricul.
ture Wilson gave out an interview IN
which he said:
'The peop Of the United States are
satisfied with The present policies Of the
administration. They are gratt6ed with
the good wages for labor and with the
prosperous manufacturing activities.
They are ssnguine Of our commercial
future. The west is unanimously In fa-
vor Of expansion.
1t would be interesting to know how
Secretary Wilson discovered this upan-
unity for expansion in the west while
undergoing the short process Of being
whirled across the country in q palace
car.
His ability or willingness to interpret
the minds of the agriculturists OF the
country is less than that Of the Farm
and Home," an agricultural journal pub
lished at Springfield, Mass, and Chicago,
ILL.,, with wide circulation among the
farmers over the entire country. Some
time ago it made a canvass Of its readers
on the subject of expansion, asking them
to mail their replies by postal card TO
series OF questions, About 81 90 replies
we've received. 10 per cent being from
New England, 26 per cent from the mid
die States, 40 per cent from the middle
west and the remaining 25 per cent div
ided between the South and the far West
Over so per cent of the replies were from
the West.
"Should the Filipinss be held in sub
lection by the United States, or should
they be allowed to form an independent
government?" was one Of the questions
asked. Each Of the five sections of the
country declared; IN favor of independence
by decided majority, the totals being
L, $50 for indendence and 8,416 for con-
quest.
"In general should the United States
adhere to or depart from its former pol.
icy of noninterference with nations be.
yond either ocean ?" was another ques-
ion. There were 1852 in favor Of our
our own business and only 1887
who indorsed an oppoeite course.
