BEvEREDGE. of Indiana, furnishes a
beautiful exception to the general rule
in the United States senate. He is a
young man. is not rich, and depended
solely upon his native ability for his
election. 1t is quite refreshing to see
this notable change from the usual
order of things. The senate has be-
come a body of fossils who manage
to reach their places through the use
of money as rule secured by ques-
tionable methods. in a questionable
way, to gain their places in body

TBE whole commerce of the Samoan
islands over which the three great
nations, the United States, England
and Germany, are now involved, ag-
gregates something like 5000. 600
yearly, of which $3.50, 600 is exports
and $3.50, 900 imports. At present the
interests represented in the islands are
curiously confused. There were, ac-
cording to the latest available statis-
tics, POS British subjects there, 120
Germans and only "a Americans.
Land holdings confirmed by a COM
mission in 1894 were: German, as, 900
acres; British, $4,000 acres; Ameri-
can, 21 900 acres. American coinage
is the standard of exchange. The
trade is handled principally by Brit
ish and German firms, but the Amer
lean shipping exceeds the German by
a comparatively large figure. Of IS
vessels of 50, 954 tons, SO of AZ, 364
tons were British, % of IS. tons
were American and ~ of 2215 tons
were German. The principal imports
are produced in the United States and
consist of cloths, lumber. kerosene,
canned provisions and salt beef. The
Importance of the islands as q port of
cali for American shipping may in
crease with the completion of the pro-
posed canal connecting the Atlantic
with the Pacific.

AMUSEM ENTS.

The servant girl question has been
q trying one with housekeepers from
time immemorial. Charles E. Blaney,
the well known farce comedy author,
has dealt with it in an amusing man
ner in his latest production, "A Hired

evening at the Burtis. This is mu-
steal comedy in the strictest sense of
the word, and is founded on a sub
stantial plot. Solos. chornses and
concerted numbers follow each other
in rapid succession, and in addition
.specialties are introduced by Charles
F. Mccarthy, who plays the title role;
Edith Murilla; the famous Page sis

why the Difference:

While newspaper editors and news
papers are being called to account for
contempt of court. they would like to
know why the Standard Oil company
is allowed TO be so contumacious in
holding out against the orders of the
court. The courts have ordered this
COMPANY to submit their books to an
examination. and the company stub
bornly refuses. At one time it was
supposed that the company had burned
it's books, but it has since openly as
serted that such is not the case and
that the books are all right, though
not for the inspection of the court.

GEN. LEONARD WOOD,

GEN. LEONARD WooD, military
commander at Santiago, told the sem
ate committee on military affairs that
he thought it would be necessary to
keep $4,000 troops in Cuba for a while
yet. The general said he had 1000
men making roads, and that he was
getting many schools started. The
customs duties at Santiago would ex-
coed the legitimate expenses by some
$23O.COO, and he expected to use this
money in cleaning out the harbor. He
said the harEor had an accumulation
of 10 feet of filth. and with it removed
the city would be as healthy as any
American city.

IT does not necessarily follow that
because your Uncle Sam has fired an
obstreperous representative of another
country out of a position that he had
no particular right in that a war will
follow. The nation offended has the
picture of SPain's woes too wildly
impressed on its mind to get into a
