Patrunnre ur the ysn PossessIons.

John c. shechan In New York World.
An estimate Of the volume of patron
age in the PHILIPPINE Archipelago, in
event OF the subjugation of the natives,
can only be made by comparing the OPP
portnpities there with those in the West
Indian and other islands. The latest
government report on their population,
commerce and resources shows them TO
be even richer than Cuba. The patron
age therefore will be enormous. Manila,
with. its $40,0O0D00 trade, It's 10000
population and its position in the me-
tropolls OF Luzon, will require a large
force of otiieials,c In this island alone
there are 1913 cities having population
GOO to40000 each, in addition
sto'lS5 cities having population Of less
fllah9 Geo, and more than 4,OO0 each.
To administer the.goyernmehtal affairs
OF this single island, with its $500, 900
inhabitants, will require on a conserva-
five estimate tlie services Of $500 pa
triQts at an annual cost Of $500, 600.
This assigns only one official to each
1000 Of population, which official must
be q sort Of composite postmaster, rev.
enue collectors jGage and clerk Of all
work, and he. must be satisfied with an
average salary nf Il 600 a year. In.
Mindahao, Wifh1ts $4,000 population,
there are only eight large and eighty
four small cities, but in Cebu there are
twenty-four cities over 5000 and sixty
cities, under that figure, with total
populatioiisin the Island Of 504 900. The
island called Ranay has Ell 900 souls,
with thirty-four cities over the 1900
mark and sixB-one under that figure.
These are not savage shacks, but centers
of industrfa Of agriculture and Of com
merce, many thcm with cathedrals,
schools, pfl9eoss Nlegraph and post
offices. Between 1900 ,O0Qand l0, 600, 900
people occupyathe Philippines These
with the.other island Possessions, make
g grand totafHof between ii ,000,00U and
5000; 900, over whom executive fnnc-
tiopsmust be exercised II will thus be
seen that the patronage Of the new pos
sessions will be onlyslightly less in pro-
portion to existing Federal appoint
ments, which are in round numbers,
100000 offices fer Che 100000 populh-
ton on the. continent. There will be
added fully 15 per cent, or $4,000 offices,
to the vast army OF appointees now
credited to,tlie president, involving Sl5-
900, 900 annually, ora grand total Of f60,I
000,900 in.patsonage for the ouryears

fore the American occupation there were
two saloons in MANILA now there are

identified by the filings in the teeth,
and there. seems little reason to doubt
but that the mystery Of Mrs. Helen
Stayner has been at least partially
uncovered.
As to the manner in which the lady
me- with her death the relatives re
fused to say anything until the identif
cation was made more certain. From
the statements made though, it seems
certain that it is the opinion of the
relatives that Mrs. Stayner committed
suicide, and one of them expressed the
opinion that the fact of no skirts being
found on the body went to strengthen
the theory of suicide. They claim that
after she had gone aboard the boat on
the night of her disappearance she re-
moved a part of her clothing in order
that her death might be more certain.
Other parties will come from Milwau
kee this evening, and more certain
identification is expected. Mrs Stay
ner's two children are attending school
at Kemper Hall, but at the advice of
the friends they have not been per-
mitted to visit the morgGe for the pur-
| pose of viewing the CHASTITY remains
which are thought to be all that is
mortal of their mother. DR.. Stayner,
the husband, is not in the state at the
present time, as he has been in Mexico
for some time seeking some trace of his
vie who was reported to have gone tC
THAT state.
a reward of two thousand dollars
haG been offered for the recovery o.
Mr. tayner, and this will probably be
claimed by serfman Buer, who first
saw the body last evening.

BASE BALL SEASON OPENED.
Athletics wins From the Port Washington
Team-Hi h School Defeats somers.

Athletics Wins From the Port Washington
Team-H. h School Defeats somers.
The base ball season in this city was
cracked wide open Sunday afternoon
with game between the Athletics and
the team hailing from Port Washington
at the Country Club grounds While
the weather was anything but favorable
for the sport, large crowd were in
attendance and shivered around the
diamond while the two teams put up
one of the poorest exhibitions of the
national game ever seen on a local
diamond. That the game was poor
was no fault of the Athletics, as they
succeeded in shutting their opponents
out, while they trotted around the
diamond % times.
The men from Port Washington were
the poorest of amateurs and from their
playing it was evident that they were
not acquainted with the game, Hen
ming, the pitcher for the alleged Port
Washington team, proved easy meat
for the Athletics and he retired iii favor
of Peel, who pitched one inning, and
the Kenosha boys took to his Delivery
in such a friendly manner that Henning
was put back into the box.
Bowman, who pitched for the Ath-
letics, did excellent work and was we'll
supported by Harkin behind the bat,
The Athletics all proved to have their
eyes or the ball and batted it to all
corners of the lot. On the other hand
their opponents we're able to secure
only two hits off the pitcher for the
Athletics. In the field the Athletics
had little work and for this reason the
strength of the team as fielding team
was not demonstrated.
Base ball enthusiasts who witnessed
the game say that. the Athletics is the
strongest team that has ever been or
ganized in the city and great things
are expected of them before the close
of the season.

on the tWirlers from the little country
town. When they returned home in
the evening it was easy to be seen that
they had won a victory, for they made
the city resound with their shouts of
+" Keno Keno-Kenosha" until several
hours after the game had ended With q
score of % to %, in their favor. The
game was much better one than the.

game was replete with sensational

to defeat their Racine rivals on Decog~

Council Decide to Let the Treatment OF
the Poor Remain as Last Year.


The city of Kenosha will not employ
a city physician during the present
! year, for, at the meeting of the Council
last night the alderman decided that
the matter. should be left the same as
it was last year. The poor will be
permitted to employ any physician
they may desire and the bills, if they
are reasonable, will be paid by the city.
The Council decided to open the
bids in the hands of the Clerk and the
only one presented was that of DR..
Paul Malmstrom, who offered to attend
all the city poor for the sum of 5000 a
year. This bid was not accepted,
although six members of the Council
voted for it.
After the little doctor had been
turned down on the first proposition he
presented another bid to the council in
which he offered to contract the work
with the city and allow the poor to
employ any physician they desired and
he would pay all the bills. In return
the city should pay him $3.50 a year.
This proposition did not meet favor
in the mind of the council and it was
also turned down. On motion of Aid.
Tarbell it was decided to leave the
matter the same as it was last year.
The action of the council will give
general satisfaction both. among the
citizens and among the Medical frater-
nifty.

About three hundred people were out
to witness the efforts OF their young
friends. The performance was d very
creditable one and refle ted credit not
only on the performers but on the
society to which they belong.
The music was exceptionally fine.
The University orchestra rendered the
aHome Circle" and were enthusiast
ically encored. Misses Protzman and
Houston played duet which was very
well received. The soprano solo by
Miss Gilbert brought out the greatest
applause. She was recalled and sang
another very beautiful selection.
The piano solo by Misses Gilbert, f.
White and Keener was very fine.
The defamation by Miss Hrahm
was very good one and made the hit
of the evening. Miss Jamison also
did well as she always does with hers.
The orations were good, much better
than usual and the debate was inter-
esting and full of instruction. No
