file bonds. This is a new feature in
legislation. 1t had its origin in Illinois
this spring, and the idea was quickly
appropriated by the Minnesota legisla-
ture. The demand for the law came
from the farmers who complained that
they had no redress for losses suffered
at the hands of INSCRIPTIONS commits
sion merchants. Now, in each State,
early reports must be made to consign-
ors of all the particulars attending a
sale, and means are provided for the
investigation of any charges Of unfair
treatment. The penalties are fines and
a forfeiting of the license. In Minneso-
ia the produce commission merchants
say that the law is hardship. They
have united to test its constitutionality
in the Supreme court, and have asked
that indiscriminate prosecutions be
withheld until the question has been de-
termined.

Some questions which Mr.. T. Estrada
he is the whole Cuban junta, has been
respectfully requested to answer are
important. He has been asked by the
Cuban American league to prepare
list, for publication and for deposit with
the United States government and the
Cuban government, not only of the con-
tributors to the Cuban fund, but also
of the bondholders. He has said that
the amount of the fund entrusted to
him was about $1000,00O, and that some
remains in his possession. But there is
another story. William A. Mcdowell,
president of the Cuban-American
league, presents statement showing
that Cubans in the United States con-
tributed 100000 month for four years,
Cuban planters $250,000 year for four
years and Cubans in Paris 100000 a
year for four years, making total of
$4,000, 900 furnished by Cubans alone.
Besides these subscriptions 100000 was
collected in South America, $3.50, 900 from
private individuals in the United States
and $230000 from other sources. Here,
then, is gross amount of s6,7S0000 to
be accounted for. If Mr.. McDowell's
estimate is correct and Mr.. Palma is
right in saying that less than $1,000,000
has been, expended the Cuban junta
should have at least 100000 some |
where.
The other day Mr.. Palma, discouraged
by the ridicule which came upon him
because he said he was the whole Gu
ban junta, said he had decided to leave
New York, retire into the country and |
be considered "as one whom the earth |
has covered" He probably wishes now |
that he had gone and was so consid-

POSTPONED.

Not long ago we were told by cable
from Manila that the ''insurrection''
was really on its last legs, that repre-
sentatives Of Aguinaldo were seeking
peace, and that the forces of 1.-The in
surgents" were scattering in the noun
tains. This morning we read that the
approach of the wet season finds the in
surrection seemingly taking new lease
of life; that all along the United States
lines the rebels are showing more ag-
gressive activity in their guerrilla style
than at any time before since the fall
of Malolos; that they think the Ameri-
cans have had enough of fighting and
are preparing for an interval of mac
tivity during the wet season.
This is decidedly chilling. 1t is also
decidedly mysterious. Why do the lit
tie brown men want to postpone any
longer their inevitable acceptance of the
blessings of liberty, Christianity and
civilization? Queer folks, they.

Black Sheep.

From their folded mates they wander far.
Their ways seem harsh and wild;
They follow the beck of baleful star,
Their paths are dream-beguled
Yet happy they sought but a wider range
Some loftier mountain s.ope,
And little rocked Of the country strange
Beyond the gates of hope
And haply Il bell with a Turing call
Summoned their feet to tread
Midst the cruel rocks where the deep pit
fall
And the lurking snare are spread.
Maybe, In spite Of their tameless days
OF outeast liberty,
They re sick at heart for the honlely ways
Where their gatherd brothers be.
And oft at night, when the plains fall dark
And the hills loom large and dim,
For the shepherds voice they mutely bark,
And their souls 90 out to him.
Meanwhile, "Back sheep! black sheep!" we
cry
Safe in the inner fold;
ANY maybe they hear, and wonder why,
And marvel, out in the cold.

STILL HOPING.

The bold Andrea who started for the
North Pole in balloon, is not yet CIV
en- up for lost by all and among those
who still hope are some who can pre-
sent a reason for their hope AT a re-
cent meeting of the London Aeronau-
teal Society Mr.. Percival Spencer
read a paper giving his views as to the
course taken by Andree's balloon after
it's ascent from Danes Island, near
Spitzbergen, July IL, 1897, and express
ing a belief that the missing aeronaut
is to be looked for in the district of
Yeniseisk Siberia. The wind is known
to have blown after his ascension first
ENTHUSIASTICALLY and then eastwardly
at such a velocity as to have carried
Andree to the district named by July
ID News came from Russia September
IA that a balloon was seen in the Yen
iseisk district. This Mr.. Spencer thinks
was pilot balloon sent out by Andree
on tile collapse of his large balloon AS
for the September date, he thinks it is
the date at which the news reached the
Russian frontier. not the date al which
the pilot balloon was seen. Andree had
condensed food to last him nine months,
ana could by hunting obtain other food.

NO CROKER DOGS HERE.

1t is rather cheering to know that
Boss Croker, of New York and Eng
land, doesn't use Connecticut to keep
his dogs in. Not long ago, it will be re-
membered, faithful and watchful leg
islator at Hartford brought about the
defeat of the bill concerning kennels by
stating that Richard Croker of New
York kept dogs on Greenfield Hill. The
Fairfield Record says that this is not
the case at all, but that the worthy

is the person referred to, and was mis-
taken for Croker, who has no dogs in

ments that is rarely equalled or those
shown here the upper one was a small
toque of fancy black straw trimmed
with black and white quilts and with
white taffeta in loops and a large ro-
settle. The hat seen in rear view was
violet straw, and for trimming there
were white and purple violets, white
tulle and a large bow of heliotrope vel
vet in back that ended in streamers.
AT the right appears a fancy white
straw trimmed with apple blossoms and
a large bow of black velvet. These are
only beginning of long list any one
of which almost constitutes a class by
itself. One sort with many pretty mod
itications is the poke shape. Among
these are many beauties. One in mind
was trimmed all aobut the edge with
shirred rose pink ribbon to match a

Women who have taken to the latest

ing into an unstudied parting some
where about the forehead. A lock or so
may escape and struggle about the ears
or down the back. There is no trace Of

The official records show that there
are now on file at Washington nearly
five hundred patents for rotary engines,
and this class of inventions now aver
ages about three applications per week.
1t is claimed for this engine in it's per-
fccted state that it will have seven dis
tinctive advantages, which are already
recognized by mechanical authorities,
over the reciprocating form, these being
enumerated as follows: First, absolute
control of the steam power by cutoff
and valves; second, minimum of space
occupied, both for engine and boiler;
third, minimum Of cost of manufacture;
fourth, minimum of steam necessary to
develop a given amount Of power; fifth,
minimum of friction and wear, and the
avoidance Of all dead working parts;
sixth interchangeability of it's eight
simple working parts; and last, but not
least, regulation of speed without loss of
power or sacrifice of durability.

The Illinois Central Railroad company
Is now trying the experiment of opera
Ing trains by telephone instead of tele-
graph. 1864 trains having been moved
over two-miie stretch Of elevated
track, much Of the time on a single
track, without an accident. All the
trains moved were subject to the ver-
bal orders of the train dispatcher from
his office in an elevated block-house
and the officials say the system Is as
capable of application over 100 miles as
over two. No time is lost in sending or
copying messages and there is no oc-
CASTOR to employ expert telegraphers,
80 there is a great gain in quckness
and cheapness of service. Tt has not
vet been fully decided to continue or
abandon the system on the completion
Of the other tracks.

The law for the protection of birds
passed by the Illinois Legislature will
begin work July l. 1t provides fines
and imprisonments for terms of ten
days against ANY person who shall
within the State kill, catch or have in
his possession living or dead any wild
bird other than a game bird, English
sparrow, crow, crow blackbird or
chicken hawk, or who shall purchase,
offer or expose for sale any such wild
bird after it is killed or caught" The
bird dealers of the State are greatly
agitated over this statute and will test
it's constitutionality. They claim that
1t is not within the power of the legis-
lature to say that no one shall keep or
sell birds which are native to the coun-
try when caught outside Of Illinois.
Bird cage manufacturers, bird-seed
preparers and taxdermists are affected
by the law and will join the dealers in
fighting the law, and those who keep
pet birds are expected to help them.

The idea is quite general that under
the more complicated mechanism of
modern industry and the severity of its
competition, men become useless at an
earlier age than formerly But the
president of the Delaware, Lackawanna

Impression in replying to reports that
the road has been discharging several
hundred employees on account of their
age. He says that no man has been
I discharged on account of age, but 1t is
true that some men who have been dis
charged as unfit for service were old
men. He continues: eve have no age
limit. Many men after As are at their
best; many men at 65 are as good as
they were at 49, and infinitely better
than lots of men at rs or S5. or anv
other age; some men never are auy
good, while others get better and better

Corps in connecting by telegraph the
six principal islands of the group is
noteworthy, as it is the first deep sea
cable constructed by an American fac
tory The decision to lay this cable
was reached after successful expert
ence in laying and operating cables in
Cuba. ane the specifications of the
government called for unusually severe
tests, which were more than satisfied by
the manufacturers. The cable, which
Is built up Of various insulating and
protecting materials, is finally covered
by two layers Of tarred jute, which was,
curiously enough, grown in the Philip
pine islands, and by the time it has
reached it's destination will have more
than circumnavigated the globe.
