"A DEFINITE POLICY"

A late dispatch from Washington
says: "Chinese viii be allowed 70 land
IN the Philippine islands temporarily,
pending the adoption Of definite pol
Icy by the government" How long, in
Heavens name, does il take this govern
ment 10 determine ON the adoption of u
definite policy2 II has had since May
/, 1898, 10 study ON this question Of ad-
mitting Chinese TO the philippines. II
has been drilled into NJ, ever since that
time, by the administration organs,
that "destiny" and all that sort Of thing
decreed that we must benovolontly as-
simulate these islands. And we have
no definite policy yet on M important a
matter M the admission Of Chinese.
In the Hawaiian islands il IL different,
and there is a definite policy, but II IL
because they have II certain amount of
home rule. So there contract labor
slavery is in full swing under the Stars
and Stripes.
In Sulu island there IL alsoa definite
policy, and polygamy land full-dodgcd
slavery flourish unchecked under the
starry banner OF the free. Aud Uncle
Sam pays tribute 10 the sultan.
Thispaper has waited patiently, and
asked It's readers 10 wait aud reserve
judgment, TO give the administration
time 10 develop its plans for handling
the Philippines In the right and honora-
bic way, but alas We confess, the watt
ing is long and tedious. In the mean
time IL is costing our nation millions of
dollars and thousands Of precious lives.

Plan Failed.

NEw IonR, Sept. pa special from
Washington says: Word reaches the
war department showing that General
Otis has sought 10 initiate the policy EN-.
ployod iE Cuba Of buying Philippine
arms, and that his efforts had been un.
successful. The natives were given to
understand thatu the surrcnderng
OF gun, the military authorities would
pay the person surrcndcring il go and
guarantee him immunity from arrest for
previous armed opposition 10 the United
States and prot 'tion for the future.
Notwithstanding this tempting offer
not one bona iide surrender OF gun IL
reported. One native, II il said, ap-
peared with gun in his hand, and the
military officers began congratu'ating
themselves that the end was in sight,
and that when the rest OF Aguinaldo's
troops learned the good treatment
given this man, they would follow his
example. A rcquisition was made ON
tho treasury for so, but before the
money was received investigation I'M
covered the fact that the native was act
ing as agent for American soldier
who had captured the gun in action aud
wanted 10 dispose Of il at government
figures To the hemilitary authorities.

and In few days returned, having been
appointed guardian Of the girl, and took
steps To secure her rs rupnawny child,
The Officer appeared at the Cass home
with u search warrant, but was refused
entrance and hence the above charge
was preferred against MIR and Mrs, r.,

Shctin Durbin went to the home and
found ho people ready to give up. They
all went Ia Geryais and gave bail be-
fore Justice Pouade, and their trial

girl 10 90 home with Tollman. hut she
showed her 'lings 10y saying she would
kill herself first, The Cass family aud
those about the hop yari all sympa-
thizo with the girl.

MANY LITTLE LIARS,

nento last week was one which the Cali

great horses never made State great.

Rails Ground TO Dust.

AS consumers Of steel the railroads
in the vicinity of Pittsburg lead the
world. During the past three months
10 miles of new steel rails, averaging
ninety pounds to the yard, have been
put down or distributed within thirty
miles of the center of the city.
There are 1,760 yards in a mile,
which would mean 299, 200 yards for
one line of rails in 10 miles, or &c.
$4,000 pounds, or say 53,856,O00
pounds for both lines of rails, or $685.
283 tons of steel rails needed in one
year for Pittsburg roads, 80 per cent
of which was for renewals on old lines
There is somewhat Of mystery re-
garding where the steel worn out on a
big road goes to. 1t is ground down
almost to impsrceptible dust by the
constant friction Of the grinding
wheels, and this friction is 40 per cent
greater on curves than on straight
stretches of track. The wear is also
much greater on ascending grades on
straight track than on descending
grade. On curves the wear is mostly
lateral or horizontal, while on straight
track it is perpendicular, with slight
inclination toward the inside of the
rail next to the fanges Of the wheels.
The millions Of tons Of steel ground
down to dust by the wheels Of trains
in this country are lost. 1t cannot be
regained for scrap, because it settles
down into the ballast, is brushed away
by the rush of air caused by the
swiftly moving train, and, like the star
dust which falls upon the ocean, is lost
forever.
In time, as civilization and the
wheels of progress move on, the rail
roads of the chief steam railways, as
well as part of the adjoining ground,
will become thoroughly impregnated
with steel and iron dust from the
grinding up Of rails and wheels, be-
cause it must be remembered that the
wheels grind the rails and the rails
grind the wheels, and this constant
shower of iron and steel dust is accu-
mulating along our railroads at a rapid
rate.-Ptts51rq Dispatch.

together joys and sorrows. The bride
keeps her veil all her life and after

while unmarried, to her parents; when
married, to her husband and his pa
rents; when widowed, to her son.

To be Buried in Her Chair.

No stranger funeral ever occurred
in Duchess county, n. Y, than that
of Mrs. George S. Norton, wife of
well-known contractor, who is to be
buried Thursday afternoon in strict
accord with her singular dying fancy.
Mrs. Norton was very stout and dread
ed ordinary burial, fearing that her
boy would be crowded into coffin too
small for her. Her body, sitting in
an old rocking chair, in which she has
spent the greater part of the last three
wears, is to be enclosed in a handsome
vanished box of chestnut and lowered
into kind Of well specially construct
ed to receive it. Then this strange
coffin will be locked and heavy flag
stone will be cemented fast over the
opening.
The walls Of this tomb will be brick
ed and cemented and no earth will be
permitted to touch either the body or
the box. After it is all over Mr.. Nor
ton will place the key of the casket
where it will never be found, he says.
The box Will resemble the packing
case of an upright piano. The e1ter-
Tor will be finished with light covered
varnish The inclined front will be
hinged, so that while the pastor, the
Rev. S. f. Mackey, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, is conducting a
simple service, the body will be visl-
bic, sitting as in life in the chair.
At the close the front will shut up,
and then the whole case will be loaded
onto one Of Mr.. Norton's business
wagons and driven to the grave by
one of his employees.
