AgonciIlo Responsible.

AgOncillO, the representative of
Aguinaldo, the Philippine dictator,
turns out to he responsible for the at
tack upon the American forces at
Manila.
1t seems that he sent an order fer
them to attack on Feb. Z, the mes
sage going by way of Hong Kong.
The Philippines got re ckless and
started in little too soon.
The idea was to make the attack
before reinf0rcements could reach
the American army.
Our government should at once de-
mand the arrest of Agoncillo, in
Canada, and his return here for trial
and punishment, that is, II the treaty
provisions will cover such an offense
AS his.
His treachery merits the death
penalty. What shall be said of the
men who encouraged him to believe
that his course would serve the pur-
pose designed?

Small Congregations.

Owing to the extreme weather Of
Sunday, as a general rule, the con-
gregations at the morning services
were small. The night services were
omitted at several owing to the
trouble in heating the buildings.
Some of the churches took up col
lections for the poor, which were
placed in their charity funds and
materially helped to mitigate the
suffering of the worthy poor.

A well-known archbishop OF Dublin

startling developments. The most de-

f was at a dinner given by the Lord
Lieutenant Of Ireland.
In the midst OF the dinner the company
was startled by seeing the archbishop
rise from his seat, looking pale and agi-
tated, and crying: 1T has come, 1t has
come" ,n

Woman and Portraits.

1T h a curious fact" said an expert
eneed New Orleans photographer, that
Il isn't the handsomest women who
make the handsomest pictures. Why is
itr Well, beauty nearly always owes
her charm to something beyond the
reach of the lens-to her complexion, her
hair or the vivacity of her expression.
Very few such women have regular fea
tuses, and when they are reproduced in
plain black and white they are at great
disadvantage Their photographs are
generally unsatisfactory and are really not
correct as likenesses On the other hand,
a woman who is regarded as homely
may have singularly perfect lines, but at
tracts no attention through lack of color
and animation.
"I'll cite you queer instance: A
dozen or so years ago Maude Brans-
combe was the most popular model in
the United States for Photographic art
studios Her best pose was as nun,
and her pictured face was strikinglly
beautiful. Thousands upon thousands
of people have raved over her loveliness.
but the real Miss Branscombe, whom |
had the pleasure of knowing, was a de-
mure, pale little woman who would
never in the world attract the slightest
attention in a crowd. Without doubt
she was passed unnoticed by many per-
son who treasured her portrait as a mar
vel."-New Orleans Times-Democrat.

Combinations and Trusts.

If you inquire carefully you will dis
cover that you can scarcely make a pur..
chase In which the price Is not dictated
by a combination over which the mer-
chant you deal with has no control.
Nor does the process stop here. The
very newspapers. upon whose independ-
ence and honesty the people depend for
their instruction on public affairs, have
combined, primarily to cheaper the
cost OF collecting the news. into a gigan-
tic news trust, called the Associated
Press, which, controlled by few men
at Chicago, has been able to distort the
truth in many prominent instances and
to poison with such distortion the very
fountain of popular information.-Gov-
eruor PiuRree.

Farmers Association.

On February 8, the Representative, OF
Minneapolis, Minnesota-Ignatius Don
nellys paper, issued a 100000 edition,
commemorative and explanatory OF the
successful organization of the Grain
Growers Association This association
is organized by the wheat growers OF
Minnesota to protect themselves against
the wheat gamblers and the outlook is
that they will be in a manner successful.
1t is, of course, absolutely non-political.
All vampires ara organized against the
farmer and his preservation necessarily
demands organization in turn. The move
is commendable and all in favor of the
farmer approve, and wish they would or
ganize in all the Sales.--future, Ope-
