COLD IS HARD ON SOLDIERS.
Were Not Prepared for the Snap
That Came Last Night.

The cold of last night was a trial to the
soldiers in camp. The stoves they had
in their tents while they were here last
winter were lacking, and there was moth
ing but the heat of their bodies to raise
the temperature. The wind whistled
through the camps at lively rate, and
the discomfort was great Some of the
men have but one blanket, the warm
weather In Cuba having caused them to
get rid of the one more than they needed
The soldiers will be glad when the cold

~ representatives OF three powers
hat Mataaia should hold the pro-
islonal government. An English
ship went to one OF the adjoining
islands and brought the banished
followers OF Malietoa back to Apia.
There the English armed them and
ordered some American and Eng
lish troops to protect them in a
camp. Because Mataafa made a
few movements, occupying some
empty houses, Kautz gave orders
TO lombard the town, injuring both
the German and American consul

McKinleY's Administration was

mSnYereigntY.n

One tact is made entirely clear
by the proclamation Of the Presi-
dents commission to the Filipinos.
Mr.. Mckinley has, without the
authority either ofthe Constitution
or of Congress, not only under
taken the conquest Of the islands
by war, but has assumed their per
manent control and government
The proclamation asserts our
Sovereignty over the Philippine
Islands" Sovereignty is supreme
power 1t is a term Of hnality'
And as if to emphasize this mean
ing the proclamation again de-
clares that "the supremacy Of the
United States must and will be en-
forced throughout every part ofthe
archipelago"
This is at least explicit. 1t puts
an end to the nauseating cant and
uncomfortable lying as to the
policy OF the Administration. 1t
acts as clari6er Of the mushY
and clouded rhetoric of the Presi-
dent in his Boston speech. 1t
shows the hollowness of his pro-
testations that the future of the
Philippines was IN "the hands OF
Congress-" 1t afirms the policy
OF "lorcible annexation" which the
President said would be criminal
aggression" in Cuba.
This action is OF course revolu-
tionarY, and unless the Filipino
nature has changed it will have
about the same effect in suppress
ing the insurrection that kerosene
has in putting out FIRE. But it is
at least satisfactory to have a def
mite policy before the people al
last.

Incomunicado Methods.

What we might liPpantly refer
to as a great deal OF row is being
made over the tact that our loyal
and excellent Judge Of the Court
Of Castigation in Cuba, Senor
Ortiz, is arresting American citi-
zens without allowing them to
know the charges against them,
and is keeping them "incomuni-
cado" for any length Of time he
judiciouslY or adjectively pleases.
Inasmuch as this "inComuni
cado" business, as prosecuted
under Spanish rule, was one OF the
things that exasperated the Amer
ican people and compelled them
to kick Spain out of the hemi-
sphere, we are able to understand
why a revival Of the system, under
General Brooke, should create
surprise and excite som e indigna-
ton. In our American iurispru
dence it is new and strange, and
really not much liked; but, in
principle, it seems to be some
thing which has come to stay.
Washington sentinel., 1899-04-08

Probably no case on record has excited
more widespread d interest in recent years
than that of the hapless Capt Albert
Dreyfus, the French army officer, who
was arrested, tyIed by court martial,
found guilty, and de2orted TO Devils
Island, where he is undergoing a life
sentence in solitary confinement on a
charge OF having given secret informa-
tion to the German Government.
Various episodes during the trial, and
the mental anguish, as well as bodily
torture, suffered by the condemned
Dreyius, have been made the theme for
a powerful drama, entitled Devils
Island which will receive its first
presentation in Washington next Mon
day at the Academy Of Music. The
play is built upon unconventional lines,
and while it relates an intensely
dramatic story it nevertheless offers
several innovations from a theatrical
point regarded, and besides appeals
with special force to humane admiration.
The cast is said to be a most competent
one, and includes that forcible and
emotional actress, Emily RIgl, also J.
n. Wallick, Dorothy Rossmore, Leander
Blanden, Cora Macy, Emile lie Croix,
Carlton Wells, ChrystIe MacLeal, Tony

America has vet produced, and probably
unsurpassed in E. gland. MIR. Jeherson's
impe5sonation of Bob Acres in "The
Rivals" has been Witnessed by thousands
and greeted everywhere with enthu-
siasm. All is not lost when in a time OF

is probably appreciated. For Mr..
Teferson's success IS a genuine triumph
in the art totacting-ths art OF illustration
of which the stage was founded and by
virtue OF which the stage exists Work
ing with heart and brain and welding
the spoils OF genius, Jefferson holds the
mirror up to nature and through the
medium of true art delights and teaches

is blessed that can see Jefferson. The

Il Personal.

On the 4th OF April the editor
OF the WASHINGTON SENTINEL cele-
brated his SEVENTEEN birthday.
The German American papers,
foremost the Baltimore CoryesPOn-
dent and the Illinois Stats Zett4Jzg,
through their columns have sent
their greetings accompanied by
most complimentary notices Of his
services in behalf OF liberty and
with hearty wishes for many more
such anniversaries. Many other
German-American colleagues, Of
both parties, have joined them in
their congratulations.
It is true, as our old friend
William RapP, oil the Illinois
StaatS ZettaAg says, that our SER
vices have not always been pro-
perly rewarded by those who pro-
fitted most by them, but the almost
unanimous good wishes OF our
colleagues OF the German-Amer-
can press, and their recognition
OF our humble efforts, furnish US
the greatest compensation and
reward that can be rendered to US.
We return our most hearty thanks
to our colleagues, and anticipating
many more years Uf usefulness in
the field, can assure them that we
will do our bestto fulfil their wishes
at the Capital.
