ASTERN papers have had a good
=. deal to say about the case of
Mrs. Dodge of New York, who
was arrested two or three weeks ago
charged with attempting to smuggle
s150,000 worth of jewelry and clothing
into the country. 1t was the sensation
of the customs house and republican
papers generally seized upon the case
as one illustrating the value to the
country of the personal baggage clause
of the Dingley law. 1t turns out, how
ever, that a large part of the jewelry
had been purchased before Mrs. Dodge
went abroad and as to everything not
purchased here, it was not subject to
duty because it had been presented"
to her while she was travelling in
Europe. The law imposes duty only
on goods purchaser abroad. The
customs officers have ruled that gifts
are not goods purchased" abroad. and
SO Mrs. Dodge escapes not only the
tariff duty, but the fine for smuggling
as well. In fact she comes out of the
scrape with flying colors, blazing jewels
and undiminished bank account.
Mrs. Dodge's experience tends to de-
Etroy faith in the personal baggage
clause of the Dingley act. If an
American travelling in Europe sees
anything he wants he has only to tip
the wink TO a friend, who will buy and
present IT to him-the first traveller

charges against the corporal, accusing
him of unsoldierly conduct and neglect
of duty.
All the world loves a lover, and the
judges were no exception to the rule.
Counsel for the defense successfully
established the contentious, first, that
the corporal had in no wise neglected
his duty; and, second, that to have
one arm around a pretty girls waist
is in no sense conduct unbecoming a
soldier and a gentleman-rather is it
an act rejecting credit upon the gall

TWELVE PAGES.


~ AND1D men will admit that there
was truth inscribed across the
banner borne in yesterdays pa
rade at Detroit. The words were:
'"There is only one Alger''
There can be no controversy over this
sentiment; it means more, in terse
Characterization of the hero of yester-
days Michigan hour, than would ordin-
arily be put into hundred pages of
political-campaign biography. There is
but one Alger; there never was but one
Alger, secretary of war; the prayer of
the American people is that there never
will be another.
Leaving out of account all political
considerations, the people of Detroit did
the handsome thing yesterday. Cen
era1 Alger has lived there more than
thirty years. He has been one of De-
trot's representative citizens. He made
millions of money out of Michigan pine
lands; he has been free with his money
in Michigan politics and toward Detroit
charities. He was a good neighbor, and
doubtless, to his dying day, he will
keep i'm grateful remembrance the gor-
geous Homecoming that was accorded
by his townsmen at the moment when
the larger public had wearied of him
and the administration had turned him
down. The reception, in respect to it's
social aspects was gracious, graceful,
admirable. General Alger will be proud
of it; he has a right to be.
With the politics of this reception, it
is different-there was world of poll
tics stored up in it. That is President
McKinleys concern, not the peoples.
The Algerites have their quarrel ex-
clusively with the administration. They
have no fondness, naturally enough,
for the large public, but while they can
not fight back at public opinion they
can fight the administration, and they
are going to do it. By the testimony
of Pingree, Michigan has an insult to
resent; by the same token Alger ''con-
tributed more than any one else to
bring the war with Spain to a quick
end" by the same authority, Alger did
this although hindered by the inter-
derence of others unfit to handle bust
mess or military affairs"
1t was Ayers day. Michigan poll
tics will carry the marks and the men,
DRY of it in political campaigns that
lican fight; Mark Hanna will live to
learn that in Michigan there's only one

Il FTER spending years trying to
\ perfect his system Of treating
hydrophobia, DR.. Gibier of the
Pasteur Institute of New York admits
that it isn't an absolute cure. Early in
June Captain Bockover was slightly
bitten by a dog, which manifested no
signs of rabies. The captain gave no
thought to the subject. Last week he
was attacked with peculiar pain in
his arm, which he ascribed to rheuma-
tism. A day or two later he found that
he couldn't eat or drink. The family
physician diagnosed the case as one of
asthma. The captain went to a hospital
and the doctor there asked him if he
had been bitten by a dog. The captain,
who had almost forgotten it, recalled
the circumstance, and he was hurried
to the Pasteur Institute. DR.. Gibier
personally attended him and exhausted
all the resources at his command, the
patient after suffering untold agony,
dying a day or two later.
The case is of special interest 10
Western New York, where rabies is I'M
usually prevalent--so much so that a
quarantine against the disease may be
ordered in Erie county. All dog-bitten
persons have been urged to have their
wounds professionally treated at the
earliest possible moment

As to the Censorship.

~ HE Boston Herald very properly
calls attention to the fact that
the natural effect of the press
censorship at Manila has been to create
the impression that the situation is
worse than it really is.
When a part of the news is sup
pressed by those in authority, people
will, as the Herald suggests, at once
set themselves at work supplying the
omissions as best they may out of their
own imaginations; the conclusion was
unavoidable that there was something
desperately bad in the situation, else
there could be no motive for conceal
ment. If the public has reached con-
illusions rather too unfavorable re-
specting the conditions, the fault lies
at the door of those who concealed
the facts
When war is in progress good news
is never kept from the people. The It'd
ings that tend to dishearten are the
ones that are held back. Really, it was
folly on the Administrations part to
withhold untoward reports-the war is
not or a character so deperate as TO
warrant that course. Is it not reason
able that plain, fair statement of the
situation could have had any effect
upon the result of the fighting. The
disparity of forces between the United
States and the Fflipinos is so great
that, if the American people are
sincerely in favor of prosecuting the
war. it can have but one ending which,
of course. is the complete triumph of
the American arms.
There was no room for doubt or fear
upon that point, and it is self-evident
that the censorship was not established
as a military necessity. Hence the
only motive must have been to keep
from the people the facts, the tendency
of which would be to make the admin
istrations policy an unpopular one.
This is distinctly recognized by many
leading republican journals in the East,
and their tone implies a fear that the
process Of censorship will act as
boomerang

left for some time on a yeranda where
the most conspicuous object was a bril-
liant parrot in a great gilded cage. He
had never seen anything of the sort be-
fore, and soon approached to investi-
gate. Then, growing holder, he began
poking and teasing the gorgeous crea-
ture, which was swinging head down
ward in such a curious way, eying him
sideways with beady black eye After
a short time the parrot had had enough
of this; it righted itself suddenly ON
its perch, and calculated harshly:
Have you nearly finished?"
The polite French child was astound-
ed, but he rose to the occasion. Pulling
off his cap with his best bow, he re-
piled, suavely, Pardon, monsieur, I
took you for a brd.''
A lifting mate to this anecdote was
recently told of the little daughter of a
distinguished French scientist. She had
never seen monkey; so when an Or
gan-grinder, accompanied by Jocko III
cap and jacket, appeared before the
house, her father took her out on the
sidewalk to view the creatures antics.
expecting that she would be much
amused but after a single glance, the
little maid hid her eyes against her
fathers coat-skirts and refused to look
again. seeming much frightened and
distressed.
He soothed and coaxed her, wishing
to overcome her fears, but for some
time in vain. She would not for a mo-
ment think of feeding the monkey with
a biscuit as she was urged to do; in
deed, she would not even lift her face.
But you are really very silly" the
father said at last, turning to take her
indoors. He is such a harmless little

port of Bangor, Me, sound and sea-

oldest American vessel in existence
which is still sailing. She was built at
Amesbury, Mass, in 1906 and has had
an adventurous career. During tha
war of 1872 she was a prtVateer and
captured IL prizes from the British.
She was also captured once herself, but
was retaken. Her log is now preserved
