THE IMPERIALISTS, CREED.

This clever satire on the incon.
sistencies of American imperial
ism has been contributed by The
Outlook:
Article l. believe in keeping
up the old war taxes to prevent
trade from Europe and the new
taxes to force trade from Asia.
Article II. / believe in the ex-
clusion of ignorant Europeans,
and the inclusion of more ignor.
ant Asiatics.
Article Ill. l believe in a pro-
tective tariff where farmers would
trade abroad but in free trade
where manufacturers seek mar
ket.
Article ". I believe the public
cannot manage monopolies at
home, but can manage races on
the other side of the globe.
Article V. l believe in home
rule, for Ireland, but in alien rule
for the Spanish islands.
Article VI. / believe in Mon
roe doctrine which forbids Europe
to interfere with relief govern.
ment in America, but permits
America to interfere with self.
government in Asia.
Article VII. l believe the Span.
ish islands are unfit to govern
themselves, but that white and
blacks have a right to govern
yellows.
Article TX. / believe that tax.
alton without representation is
tyranny when applied to us, but
philanthropy when applied by us
Article X. | believe that gov.
ernments get their powers from
the consent of the governed in
America, but from the conscious
superiority of the governors il
Asia.
Article XI. l believe that mil
itar'sm and foreign broils are the
refuge of despotism in Europe
and of republicanism in America
Article XII. belieFeS thai
American policies have made {
little America, and that European
policies will make a greater
America.

ISLANDER.

What gross injustice is often
done by SANDER. And this word
comprises a multitude of sins
from idle gossip of harmless in
tent up to malicious detraction of

mischief is hidden beneath those
baneful words, "they say" And
who are ''they?" The cowled
monks, the hooded friars, who
glide with shrouded faces in the
procession of life, muttering in
ali unknown tongue words of a
mysterious import? Who are
"they?" The midnight asssas-
sins of reputation. who Turk in
the by lanes of society, with dag
ger tongues. shaypened by inven-
tion and malice, to draw the
blood of innocence, and, hyena-
like, banquet on the dead. Who

NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING.

No merchant can be successful
who does not in some way let the
public know what he has to sell
and use legitimate means to en-
tice them into his place of bust
ness, says the Toledo (Ohio) Bee.
The fact is noted that A. T. Stew
art the greatest merchant of his
time, left fortune of $500, 0OO,-
600 all made in trrde, and he was
a persistent advertiser in the
newspapers. Nor did he limit his
advertising to those portions of
the year when everybody buys.
He did more advertising in dull
times than in flush times. He
would rush into print after the
holidays for the purpose of SELL
ing and turning into cash the left
over stock. He would have no
dead stock, he had no room for it.
He bought to sell, not to store
away. He would reduce prices on
goods passing out of fashion and
tell the people SO through the
newspapers.
No merchant gets ahead who
adopts the policy of hanging on
to goods passing out of fashion.
The longer stock is held the less
it will bring.

ANOTHER CARNEGIE GIFT.
Newport. I<y., Gets 100000 Toward
New Library.

CINCINNATI. Ohio. Nov. 15.-Andrew
Carnegie has agreed to contribute $4,000
toward the establishment and maintenance
of public library in Newport, Ky. The
conditions are that the city of Newport
contribute $1,000 annually for like pur-
pose. This is already assured, as under
a recent act of the legislature a portion
of the police court fines are set apart for
the maintenance of a public library. and
this amounts TO more than o., 900 annually.
The Rev. W. G. McCready, rector OF st.
Paurs Protestant Episcopal Church. who
is a member of the board of trustees of
the Newport Public Library. wrote to Mr..
Carnegie some months ago. describing the
great need of such an institution on a more
extensive scale. To his surprise, he re-
ceived a letter from Mr.. Carnegie today
making the above offer. Mr.. McCready ad-
dressed his letter to New York but Mr..
Carnegie was then absent in Scotland, but
he replied upon his return. Newport has
now a public library on small scale. 1t

ond floor of the insurance building at

at the groin, was left a bruised mark,

In that predicament the unfortunate man
was oblnged to cling to guy rope. sitting
astride an iron beam nearly 100 feet in the
air in the skeleton iron work Of the struc-
ture, till assistance arrived.
As his comrades climbed up to him he

force pulled it from Reagan's body.

completely saturated the mans clothing.
Although passing through such terri

self-control to such an extent that he has

rections to his companions how to stanch
the flow of blood. They followed his ad-
vice and then removed him to the freight

the ground.
He was hurried to the Samaritan Hos
oital in a patrol wagon, but his condition
is regarded as critical. How he survived
at all is puzzling the physicians Of the
hospital. On examining his wounds they
found three ribs had been broken, the
lungs punctured. and 1t is feared the intes-
tines have been badly torn. The physi-
clans cannot see how he can possibly re-
cover unless the bar missed the vital parts.

the other used his fists. Morgan managed

defended himself. The fight lasted five
minutes and ended only when both pugil-
lists were knocked out.

were locked up. Yesterday morning they

TOOK TEE WRONG TRUNK.
Complication at nm Uptown Hotel
Makes Trouhle.

A Complication at mn Uptown Hotel
Makes Trouble.
A strange story OF the disappearance OF
. trunk containing laGy's valuable ward
robe was related last night to Night In
spector Carter at Police Headquarters by
Robert Fatt manager OF an uptown hotel
Hayman. wife Of we'll known turfman.
1t disappeared Saturday from the hostelry
at which Hayman and his wife were To-
Gated. 1t disappeared at about the same
time Frank Turner and Pauline Moran.
who had been performing at a downtown
theatre. departed from the hostelry, where
they. too. had been located.
The fact that a trunk owned by Miss
Moran was still at the hotel after her de-
parture was noticed, but at first was rot
thought significant. There was no similar
Ity In appearance between the Hayman and
Moran trunks. which fact, it was thought,
orecluded the possibility of an exchange in
trunks by mistake. When, however. an in
vestigation into the matter was made the
conclusion was reached by Mr.. Fatt that
Mrs. Hayman's trunk was in the posses
sion Of the Turner Moran combination.
Accordingly he located his former guests
at the Columbia Theatre in Cincinnati, and
wired Turner four times asking for the re-
turn Of the missing trunk.
The kilograms failed to elicit a response
as did a subsequent telegram sent by the
father of Turner. who is a well-known
oyster dealer in this city. Mr.. Fatt then
sought the advice of the police with the
result that the Cincinnati police were COM
municated with. They were furnished with
the Cincinnati address OF Mr.. Turner and
Miss Moran. and description Of the Hay
man trunk, and were requested to procure
and forward the trunk to this city. Mr.
Fatt then awaited developments.
In the meantime. Mr.. Fatt completed
the investigation under way to establish
clearly how the Hayman trunk was taken
from the hotel unknown to the manage
ment- Enquiry developed that a colored
driver in the employ of Mr.. Turner ST.,
took one of the two Turner Moran trunks
and also a small Saratoga trunk from the
hotel. The Saratoga trunk he fully de-
scribed. and the description tailed with
that Of the Hayman trunk. Further en-
quiry revealed that Mr.. Turner, ST., check
ed two trunks at the railroad station for
his son. and Miss Moran, and one of the
trunks was described as a small Saratoga.
1t was then that the elder Turner, was
asked to telegraph to Cincinnati and ask
for the return of the Hayman trunk. In
his telegram the father advised the son TO
return the trunk and save trouble Previ-
Ously Mr.. Fatt had telegraphed Frank Tur-
ner four times, as stated. Then the des-
patch was sent to the Cincinnati police.
The result of all the kilograms or OF some
one Of them. presumably the latter, is that
word was received by Mr.. Fatt this morn
ing from Mr.. Turner. The communication
was very brief. but showed that the con-
cluson reached by Mr.. Fatt that the Hay
man trunk had gone to Cincinnati was
correct. The telegram signed by Frank
Turner simply requested that the Moran
trunk be forwerded to Cincinnati today and
advised that the Hayman trunk would
be sent back tomorrow.
