He Was Sleepy.

The patrol wagon was sent out OH
Beretania street yesterday morning to
bring in a drunken soldier who was
lying asleep in vacant lot. When
aroused, the soldier took in the situa-

where he made himself comfortable.
His rest was disturbed again at the
Station-house, but he readily adapted
himself to circumstances, and con-
tinued his nap on a cell couch.

NEGROES WOULD 90 TO CUBA.
Proposition to COIOnIze There and In
the Philippines.

Topeka. Kas., April 30.-The
race troubles in the south recently
have stirred up considerable feel
ing among negroes in Kansas, and
as a result the Plain Dealer, the
state organ of the negroes, in its
issue today. advocates the coloniz-
alton of the negro race in Cuba
and the Philippines.
J. H. IChillers, editor of the
paper, last night telegraphed Pres
ident Mckinley, asking him if he
would consider favorably the pro-
position of recruiting thirty-fve
regiments of negroes for service in
the new possessions of the United
States.
The recruiting of thirty-five reg
iments of negro soldiers, it is
claimed by the promoters of the
plan, would take over 200, 900 ne
groes out of the south; for, if the
regiments were stationed perma-
nently in the new countries, the
families would go with the soldiers
There would, also, it is contended,
be an exodus of negroes, who
would follow the soldiers there fOl
the purpose of securing homes and
settling permanently. No reply
has yet been received.

There is much discussion of late,
among those who have investigated the
conditions and studied the facts. regard
ing the future bread and meat supply Of
the world. G.. Wood Davis, who is con-
sidered quite an authority on such mat
tiers, claims that since the year 1854 there
has not been an acre added to the worlds
aggregate bread bearing lands except
such as can be used only temporarily.
Statistics also reveal the fact that the
meat supply Of this country is 20 per
cent below the normal demand. When
added to these conditions the further
evident truth that Europe is increasing
at an enormous rate its demands upon
MS both for bread making and feeding
grains and our cattle as well that the
area of our ~cultivatable lands cannot
from this time on more than keep pace
with increasing population here at
home-it is very evident that the Amer.
lean farmer can confidently look for.
ward to a large and steady prosperity.
1t is no wonder that sagacious men are
pouring into Nebraska, anxious to Sc
cure title deeds to acres of our fertile
prairies. They recognize that i'll them,
at the low prices at which they are held,
are wealth and comfort such as the
world has seldom offered.

General Eagan before it yesterday on
recall and also heard the testimony of
Rear Admiral Stewart and Paymaster

General Eigan's testimony was not

ply beef to be preserved by a process of
their own, but that he had not consid.
cred it. He also modified u former
statement to the effect hat the A -hour
clause in the beef contract had crept
therein as n clerical error, saying that
the multitude Of matters which had dc.
handed his attention at the time he had
forgotten its insertion. There was an
apparent effort on the part Of Major
Lee, representing General Miles, to
show that Senator Hanna had sought to
influence the contracts, but General
Eagan asserted that he did not know
the senator and no explanation was
made of the introduction of his name.
Major Black and Captain Pomeroy
gave the details concerning the condition
of the beef brought to Porto Rico on the
steamer Manitoba. Captain Pomeroy
stated that of 81 900 pounds receipted
for at Ponce, 5000 pounds had been on.

tons made by the men to the canned

Major Black told of a conversation
with General Eagan in regard to the re-
frigcrator beef, in which he quoted the
latter as saying, with an oath, that he
would have compelled the men to take
the beef.
