It is fervently hoped our cotton
planting friends will in no wise
abandon their successfully-adopt-
ed departure of producing nearly
all the products consumed at
home, in the face Of the increased
price OF cotton. While we con-
gratulate them in their good for
tune. it would be unsafe to coun-
sci them TO indulge in an increased
cotton acreage. The risk is too
great a2d on.y diversified farming
can lessen 1t.

MAY LEAVE THE ARMY.
Many AllurinE Offers Made to Gen.
Wood by Corporations Anxious
to Secure His Services.

A special to the New York Tribune
from Washington says: 1t is the be-
lief among officers here that Gen.
Leonard Wood will not return to San
tiago, but will resign from the service
to accept one of the many alluring
offers that have been made to him by
corporations whose directors have been
attracted by his conspicuous executive
ability and positive genius for organ
izing.
Before he left Santiago he had re-
ceived an invitation from Boston to as
sumo the management of New Eng
land concern at salary of $4,000 a
year, according to the understanding
of his friends here. He also had under
consideration several applications from
New York setting forth scarcely less
lucrative positions, and to-day it is an
nounced he has been in consultation at
New York with the heads of the syndi-
cate which recently consolidated most
of the street railway systems of the
national capital and the local electric
lighting companies.
The officials of the war department
do not think Gen. Wood will resist all
the temptations that are being put for
ward to entice him from the army.

Sensation.

PONTIAC, Mich, July2 -Geo. Brooks,
middle-aged colored man, is the reign
ing sensation in state medical circles.
UP to last February Brooks was almost
white. One bitter cold night in Feb
ruary last he took ride into the
country. He did not feel any bad ef-
fects from the exposure except in his
feet, hands, and nose He thought no
more of his nights ride until after a
warm night several weeks ago he
awoke to find himself several shades
darker. Since that time he has been
continually changing hue until now
his skin is nearly the color of ebony.
The medical profession think the frost
bite on the night of the eventful ride
was the cause of his changing color,
but why is what is puzzhug them.

IMPROVED SANITATION.
Water and Sewerage systems Of the
White House to Be Complete
IL Overhauled

Col. Bingham, superintendent of pub
lie buildings and grounds, has begun an
extensive modification of the water and
sewerage systems of the white house.
The home of the president of the Unit
ed States has been unhealthy for many
years, and hitherto the attempts at the
introduction OF modern plumbing and
sanitary sewerage have been spasmodic
and. painfully inadequate. Improve
ments made in one corner were Offset
by leaks somewhere else.
In making the present scientific i'm
provements an astonishing network of
old cesspools, pipes, conduits, and
drains has been unearthed, many of
them not used, and others which could
not be flushed. The unused drains and
basins are being taken up and the regu-
lar system improved, while provision
for flushing the sewage pipes has been
made. There was no map of the water
and sewerage systems of the white
house, and hence work was done al
random under different administra.

CUBANS THREATEN REVOLT.

New YORK, July "A high officer of
the United States army of occupation
in Cuba contributes to the July num-
ber Of the North American Review an
article on the Cuban situat. IN which
will create a profound impression In
this country.
After quoting our solemn pledge,
"the United States hereby disclaims
any disposition or intention to exer-
else sovereignty, jurisdiction or con-
troll over said island except for the
pacification thereof, and asserts its de-
termination when that is accomplish
ed to leave the government and the
control Of the island to the people,"
he goes on to make q startling pre-
sentiment of facts, of which these are
the most significant:
"There can be no doubt that the
'pacification' of the island is now ac-
complished. City for city, the towns
of Cuba are more peaceful and orderly
than those of the United States.
There never was more docile, quiet
people. All the reports of @bandits'
are zealously forwarded to the United
States, and half of them are lies.
1.-THE Cubans can and will give them
selves as good government as have
the petty republics of South and Gen.
trail America. They are impatient to
undertake the management of their
own affairs.
"The irritation of the Cubans against
the Americans and American military
rule is daily increasing, and will inev-
itably presently find vent in revolt.
ITO drift on, to delay evacuation
means "a struggle with tremendous
| problem under disheartening condi-
tions trying to help this people in the
face of daily increasing opposition, in.
gratitude, irritation, suspicion. II
means postponement of the settle.
n,ent of problems connected with the
material prosperity of the island. L,
means failure to fulfill a solemn
