DREYFUS ON TOP.

M. Waldeck- Rousseau has glved a
fine example of patriotism IN accept
ing the responsibility of forming a
new Ministry fin France. He is one
of the most brilliant pleaders at the
French bar, and it is intimated that
his pecuniary sacrifice in accepting
office means a loss of twenty thou
sand dollars a year. But what is of
more Importance to an ambitious
and sensitive man, he puts himself
at the head of Ministry at most
critical time, when he will have to
assume responsibility for proceedings
which cannot fail to be odious to
large numbers of Frenchmen. His
colleagues are curiously assorted, in
GLIDING a quasi monarchist at one
extreme and a radical of the most
pronounced type at the other. Mere
ly to hold together such group will
be serious strain upon his tact, and
to carry it successfully through the
from various quarters in the Assem-
bly, will be stupendous task.
M. Waldeck has wisely retained as
Minister of foreign affairs M. Delcasse
who has held that portfolio in the last
two ministries and has shown de-
gree of tact and skill which would
make his retirement a distinct loss to
the republic. His most picturesq ue
associates are Gen. Marquis de CALI
fet, who takes the post of Minister of
War. and M. Millerand, who accepts
the portfolio of commerce. The for
mer is brilliant cavalry commander,
with military career dating back to
the revolution of 1848. He is of mon
archial leanings, but supporter of
the republic, and his pigment remarks
in an interview that he "finds the
army talking too much" shows that
he appreciates the present situation.
M. Millerand is radical socialist,
who will have to temporily efface
some of his ideas to get on comfort
ably with the minister Of war.
The significant thing about the min
istry is that from the premier down,
it is ministry which is predisposed
to see justice done in the Dreyfus case,
and within certain limits at least, to
carry the case to logical conclusion
in the punishment of those who had
an active part in the conspiracy
against Dreyfus. The anti-revision-
lists are naturally furious over this
fact, but fate itself and all the unseen
forces which make for the vindica-
ton of Justice are fighting against
them, and their rage is impotent.-

THE VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPART
MENT OF NEW YORK.

The original organization of the
Volunteer Fire Depart ment dated
back almost to the Inauguration of
the government. It's equipments con-
sisted, up to 1865, of hand engines;
then it acquired a number of steam
engines, which were just coming into
general use. Many of the old time
engines, still preserved in this city,
are curious. Two hand engine known
as the ''goose- neck" was considered
superior to anything else in it's line,
until the steam fire engines came in.
remember the company to which I
was first attached, organized in 1928,
required as condition of it's organ
ization that it should be furnished
with goose neck engine. This was
practically the same type of machine
used in old New York as far back as
1900. There was no hose The first
goose necks came from Europe, but
early in the century they were built
in this country. Our individual en-
CINE was used for years by the COM
pany, doing very good service. We
were assigned to the lower districts
of the city, where all the great fires
took place at that time-mainly south
Of Canal Street. But the Volunteers
finally admitted that they were some
what behind the age, with the advent
of improvements and tangled
styles of hand engines, preceding the
steamer.
We had no regular uniform at that
time, except the fire hat There was.
however, a non official uniform.
which consisted of red shirt, a drab
frock coat and trousers. The Vol
unteer who owned one Of those suits
was 'stony" man on the bowery.
We finally concluded that we ought
to have a modern engine, and applied
for and obtained what was known as
the "piano-deck hand engine" Then
quickly followed the steam fire en-
CINE, which was met at this time
with serious opposition by the Vol
unteers. They looked upon it as an
innovation of the paid system, then
being more or less agitated by the in
surance interests, who were known
to have ordered and put in use sew
eral steam fire engines at their own
expense. However, after several

is 1T RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Patent
Medicines

(From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard, n, Co.
1t may be a question whether the editor of a
newspaper has the right to publicly recommend
any of the various proprietary medicines which
flood the market, yet preventive of suffering
feel it duty to saw good word for Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy We have
known and used this medicine in our family for
twenty years and have always found it reliable In
many cases dose of this remedy would save hours
of suffering while physician is awaited We do
not believe in depending implicitly on any medi-
cine for cure, but do believe that if bottle of
Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on

much suffering might be avoided and in very many

CUBANS ASTONISHED no LEARN
OUR GOVERNMENT KEEPS
IT'S PROMISES.

The libel action which Gov. Gen.
Brook has ordered begun against Ell
Reconcentrado is exciting general in
terest in Havana for it is regarded as
test case under the recent degree.
The possibility that Gen. Freyre
Andrade, president of the late mill
tary assembly, may be named as one
of the judges of appeal, has caused
considerable agitation among the
Cubans who regard him as slightly
cratic. At the time of the Garcia
funeral his attitude toward Gen.
Brooke, who he charged with endeav-
oring by every possible means to
provoke the Cubans, aroused consid-
cradle animosity among the latter.
More than this, at all the meetings of
the Assembly he bitterly denounced
the Americans and at all the subse-
quent gatherings of Cubans where he
has put in an appearance he has fol-
lowed the same course. His selection
for a judgeship would be disapproved
by many not only for such considera-
tions as the foregoing, but because he
is not old enough or sufficiently ex-
perienced to fill the position effect
lively.
The work of disbursing the Ameri-
can gratuity to the Cuban troops con-
tinues at Cardenas, Remedies, Pinar
del Rio and Puerto Principe. Col.
Moale is in charge at the last named
point. The Cubans are focking to the
distributing centres, asserting that it
was only by accident that they had
heard they were to receive American
money. The Cubans say this is the
first time in their history when gov
eminent promise has been kept and
that they have never before expert
enced such considerable treatment
from government representatives.
The papers that represent the mem
bers of the former military assembly
continue their disparaging illusions to
Senior Quesada, the special represen-
tative of Cuba in Washington. They
charactize the appointment as direct
'tslap in the face' from President Nc
Mckinley. The Gomez party, on the
other hand, says that the Presidents
choice in this matter is "another il
lustration of his excellent Judgement"
They regard Senior Quesada as man
devoted to the best interests of Cuba
and consider that his appointment
places in Washington "a man who
will tell the truth and save us the ex-
pense of sending commissioners there
which was the usual device of the
military assembly.

Mr.. John r. Mclean, who lives in
Washington, but claims residence in
Ohio, for political purposes, is pre-
pairing to spend some of his millions
he has accumulated through his COR
poration investments, to buy the
empty homer of second place on the
Democratic ticket with Bryan. A
portion of the money is to be spent in
establishing a Mclean silver daily
newspaper in Washington. Accord
ing to present understanding, this
paper will be for Bryan, Mclean and
free silver, but it is predicted in this
city that should the movement to pre-
vent Bryan's nomination get strong
enough to promise success, it will join
it and push Mclean for the head of
the ticket. Impecunious Democrats
