MORE OF THEM USED.

There are probably more Singer sew
ing machines useG in the United States
than of any other one make, This is a
very excellent guarantee that they are
one of the very best machines. The
points of merit are strength, durabil-
ity, easy running and simple construc-
ton Very little mechanism to get out
of order makes repair bills small.

chine examine the Singer before pur-

a large and enthusiastic audience
was present at the Orphcum last night
to welcome the new program which
proved to be equal to any of those
preceding it. The new dramatic sketch
entitled "A Winters Night" by Boggs

these two artists are growing in public
favor every night. Singing by Ethel

Prefer to Truss Americans With
Their Arms.

Havana, May 31-Yesterday's events
in connection with the payment of the
Cuban troops entitled to apply here for
a share in the American gratuity have
effectually killed off the opposition to
the receipt of the bounty by privates.
In American military circles it is con.
sidered that a fine start has been made
and that the opposition is defeated.
Three hundred privates arrived during
the day to apply for payment, but
though Lieut.. Col. George NJ. Randall,
Of the United States Eighth infantry,
the commissioner experimenting the
distribution here, kept his Office open
from 10 q. m. to 4 p. M, only 10 could
be paid during that interval, as each
man took up several minutes. Many
who brought arms were not on the
rolls at all. Ninety-nine rifles were
surrendered, most of the applicants de-
Ginning to take any chances in turning
the weapons over to the mayor Of Ha-
vana, evidently believing it would be
better to give them direct to the Amer
leans. All day it was virtually impos-
sible to get through the front door Of
the office unless the sentry cleared the
way. The Cuban officers who, on the
first day, tried to discourage any who
were disposed to apply. finding now
that the tide of feeling has turned, are
Offering all the assistance possible to

1t is pleasant to see a man. or to hear
of a man, who breaches about dealing
considerably with employes-and then
practices it. The mayor of Toledo Is
q good representative of such preach
ers. Each year he mails to the en-
ployes of his manufacturing plant a
check of S per cent upon the wages
paid ~ workman that year. This, he
insists, is not a gift. but a recognition
of faithful service, and the best meth
cd he yet knows of establishing truer
equilibrium between capital and labor.
It is natural, therefore, that while
Mayor Jones talked and lived equality,
his own plurality in his election to
public Office should have been over.

HE Is only a lath painted to look
fike iron," Bismarck once said of Lord
Salisbury. The clever epigram is dis
proved by the singular success with
which the premier has conducted the
recent agreement with France. Hence
forth England will be u~ndisturbed in
her enlightened protectorate of the
Nile valley. Everywhere she is re-
garded as a different power from what
she was when Lord Salisbury took the
government; richer, more formidable,
more influential. The iron chancellor
Judged all men after his own metal.
Unhappily the golden traits Of tact,
courtesy and the desire to arbitrate
had little place in his conception Of q
minister of state.

It is not unworthy of notice that one
of the most serious disasters that have
befallen our troops In the Philippines
occurred to those who were going to
the relief Of a beleagured Spanish gar
rison. They were under no legal obli-
CATION to go thither, the Spanish gov
eminent itself being responsible for
the safe withdrawal of all its men.
They went on the perilous expedition
at the simple call of humanity, more
ready to succor their late foes than
they would have been last year to
light them. Such a deed should go far
toward restoring friendly feeling in
the Spaniards toward this country.

of President Mckinley. The president
has been anxious to meet all the troops
who served in the Philippines if this|

to st. Paul and Minneapolis to greet
the Minnesota volunteers. With the
possibility that the president might not
be able to continue his trip further
west, the Twin Cities have undertaken
to arrange for the mobilization of all
the volunteers as their guests. The
organizations. if mustered out ut San
Francisco will be transported to St.
Paul and Minneapolis as the guests Of
the Twin Cities. After the jubilee the
troops will go home to their respective
states at the expense of the states.
The programme is to have the North

gathering. and if possible those from
the States of Washington, Utah, Ore

which the troops will reach St. Paul
and Minneapolis will depend upon the
rapidity with which transports can be
placed at their disposal by the war de-
partment, but it is expected that once
started, the troops will all be landed at
San Francisco within six weeks. The
first of the troops are expected to ar
rive by the middle Of June and the last

There Was No Indication of Its
Insecurity - In Addition to the
Killed Twenty-Three Persons Re-

Waterloo, Iowa, May 80. The
through train to st. Paul over the
Rock Island, Burlington, Cedar Rapids
& Northern railways. was wrecked at
1:15 Sunday morning at the crossing
of Sink creek, about four miles south
east of this place. The train consisted
of six coaches, including mail and bag

coaches and sleeper. Nine persons
were killed and. twenty-three injured.

Iowa; George Wainwright, conductor,
and an unknown person.
A cloudburst had washed the sand
and gravel roadbed, leaving the track
unsupported for a stretch Of twenty
feet. The rails had held together and
there was nothing to indicate the in
security of the road. The engine
struck the wash-out and was derailed
i'll the ditch beside the track, and be-
hind it the cars were piled up in a
confused heap. The mail a tipped
over and t%elescoped the baggage car
behind. while the rear end of the bag
gage car in turn telescoped the smoker.
The roof Of the sleeper plowed it's way
through the day coach, while the low
err half of the latter crushed through
the sleeper. The engineer and fire.
man jumped from the train and es-
capped with slight injuries. The news
was brought to this city by a mail
clerk. and the fire whistle was blown,
Il switch engine and a coach hastily
prepared and a relief train sent very
speedily. The injured passengers
were extricated from the debris and
brought here. Another relief train
soon arrived from Cedar Rapids and
took a number of the seriously injured
to a hospital in that city.
