TALKED LIKE A SENORITA.

Rather be back in Baracoa,' shlvered
one Of three soldiers, he of the canvas
jacket, as they boarded a Broadway car.
"Baracoa'd be all right, all right, if it
wasn't for the hardtack," responded one
of the others. Say stranger" he said
to the man next to him, "Ill never eat
another bareback as long as 1 live. 1t
takes a whole cup of coffee to soften one,
and then you don't get the good of the
coffee. On our way home we threw them
overheard. I think maybe the swordfish
liked them" -"' .
I'D rather eat bareback han pay for
anything else said the third. '"They
charged me $3.50 for coffee and roofs in a
restaurant in Baracoa one day"
But the Baracoa girls, the senoritas,
they're great" said one, addressing the
occupants of the car at large"
Santiago girls are just as pretty" said
another.
f"They amt in it with the Baracoa girls.
You see a few good looking ones on the
| plaza of an evening, but the Baracoa
girls are all beauties. Such lovely eyes
| ard hair"
TOO crinkly," said the critic of the
party. '"That hair is a sign of mixed
blood"
mo, it isn't" said the Baracoa cham
pion. It's the climate"
Here's a purse one Of them knit me-"
said the canvas-jacketed soldier, and he
drew forth a pink-and-white silk trifle
and showed it to his comrades. I'm
going to give it to my girl at home and
tell her I had it made especially for her.
Mercedes'H never know another girl got
it."
"Well, for my part said he who had
criticised the hair of the Baracoa girls,
Il don't want anything to do with them.
| n-- w. 1;y1r owe fhn ,,ionrt n~
earth, and I kept thinking Of them all
the time"
And he glanced slyly at an American
girl who sat opposite, and whose interest
in the conversation was u~nmistakable.
The subject of girls having been pretty
thoroughly c%anvassed, the soldiers began
to show the souvenirs they had with them
"a spoon from the Maria Teresa, several
matchboxes and innumerable cartridges.
He whose thoughts had been with the
American maidens while his companions
had been flirting with the Cuban beauties
held out a cartridge to the girl oppo-
site.
wouldn't you like this Mauser cart
ridge, Miss?" he said, shyly.
His present being accepted with thanks,
he leaned back contented.
Then the champion of Baracoa beauty,
not to be outdone, held out one to the
girl opposite, just to show that while he
gave the PAIN 10 the DlacK-eyed SenOfl-
tas, still he was not blind to the attrac-
lions of their northern sisters.
"This is a Krag-Jorgensen. Won't you
take this, too?"
When the girl left the car at Fiftieth
street she smiled at the soldier trio and
said:
"Adois, senors, hasta la vista"
Gosh, she's a senorita herself; wish I'd
tried some of my Spanish on her," said
the Baracoa champion, and the passen-
gers laughed.

THE NEWSPAPER OPINION
NOR

london, Jan. 12.-Most of the morning
papers comment today upon the situation
In the Philippines. drawing the inference
that Senator Foraker's remarks in the
senate chamber yesterday were made by
him as the spokesman of the president
and expressing disappointment and their
disapproval of a possible REIMBURSEMENT
of the Philippines by the United States.
The Times says that the senator appears
to leave the subject in an unpleasantly
ambiguous state. 1t is in the Philippines
that the new system of government will
be brought to a test and no resolutions
passed in the senate can solve the prob
lem. The claims of the insurgents to ma
tional recognition can hardly hold water
but there is no power in the world that
would be SO much embarrassed by the
raising of a question of this sort as the
United States. To announce that the oc-
cupation of the Philippines is only tenn
porary would be scarcely prudent. AL
though some prccedents are furnished in
our own policy during the last twenty
years, the results are unsatisfactory. All
the governments of the continent have
acquiesced willingly or unwillingly in the
fact that the islands, with all their ad-
vantages and responsibilities. are Ameri-
can acquisitions, and they are bound to
hold aloof except in the inconceivable
events of the failure of the American gov
rnment
The Standard says it is a little startling
to find the liberators of Cuba engaged in
suppressing a youthful republic which
claims the sacred right of self govern
ment. Yet to withdraw would create an
other Cuba off the coast of Asia for which
naval nations would scramble.
The Daily Chronicle says: wv believe
that, SO soon as it can safely be done, the
United States will give the Filipinos vir-
tua home rule under a responsible gov
eminent

HEAT VALUES. OF THE COLORS.

Heat has some very curious likings and
dislikes, say It'd Bits. For instance,
when you want to keep in the heat of the
body the material of your clothing. is
everything, and the color does not matter
at all. But when you want to keep out
the heat of the sun from your body the
color of you clothes is everything and
the material practically . nothing.
Everyone knows. that very little heat
can get out from the body through silk
or wool and a great e a can pass iaway
through linen and cotton. And red wool
is as warm as white woo1, while red linen
would be just as;cold as White linen
But if you were to stand under a very
hot sun it is found hat cotton clothing
will let in 100 degrees, liner 95, wool 102
and silk 1OS degrees, so that there is'very
little difference in the protecting power
of these several materials.
Suppose you vary the color, however,
the difference is remarkable. A number
of suits were put or a man, all of the
same material, but differing in color, and
when exposed to the heat of the sun it
was found that he received 100 degrees of
heat through the white shirting, 1902 de-
grees through the pale straw, 140 degrees
through. the dark yellow, 1855 degrees
through the turkey red, 1853 degrees
through the dark green, 1913 degrees
| through the light blue and POS degrees
through the b lack.
From this it is clear that black and
blue are the best colors for winter cloth
ing, as they let in the most heat from the
feeble sun, while white and pale yellow
are the best summer cOlOrs, for they let
in the least of the heat from the eoo-hot
summer sun.

tune and in search of revenge, too, for
during the journey across the plains his
best friend died from an Indians arrow
and Uncle Jack fell easily into the then
common belief that the only good In
dian was a dead one.
Trophies galore of the balance of that
bloody journey he showed to the Call re-
porter. Scalps by the dozen, chairs bot.

arms.
With neither wife nor child. only the
~comradship of a big mastiff, Uncle Jack
arrived here in 1S49 and settled dow to
the business of stock raising on the lone
ly mountain ranges of Mendocino.
From 1850 to 1856 there were no Indian
agencies established. and the advent Of a
white man was an invitation to the
treacherous instincts of the Indian.
Murder, arson and cattle and horse steal
ing ran riot.
Farley went out one morning to inspect
his stock and found that 25 horses and 100
head of cattle had been stolen, and that
his favorite saddle horse had been killed
and mutilated, it's a and tail hanging
defiantly on the gate posts of the corral.
Uncle Jack FASTENED back to his cabin
where he secured extra ammunition and
another brace Of ~siXshooters. Three
friendly prospectors with an extra horse
We're in the neighborhood and they and
Uncle Jack set forth in pursuit of the
thieves. Reaching a deep canyon where
one Of the Eel river tributaries cam cas-
cading down the mountain they were
about to water their horses when they
| were struck by the peculiar color of the
water. 1t was blood red.
This was enough to tell Uncle Jack that
the Indians We're butchering his cattle up
the river and washing the carcasses in
the stream.
In a flash he and his companions were
riding up the trail, where they soon met a
shower of arrows. This was in the day
| of the Misunderstanding rifle and every one
of the return shots had to tell.
Uncle Jack and his friends dismounted
and broke for cover. In the shelter of
trees and bushes they poured a slow
deadly fire on the attacking redmen. As
fast as the savages could recognize and
surround the rifles of the white men
would cut gaps in the savage circle
Time after time the Indians were repuls-
ed, their supply of arrows gave out and
they beat a retreat.
Uncle Jack ove only a amman
of his band Of cattle and nom of the
horses, but exactly 40 indians, good and
dead" marked the quantity Of his ven
geance. This was one of Uncle Jacks
most successful days. 1t soon became
historic and was instrumental in securing
him a government scoutship when the
first Indian post was established in 1856.

LAST OF THE INDIAN FIGHTERS.

The great American indian fighter,
famed in history and dime novel, is rap
idly becoming a memory of the past.
With the tanning and the thinning out OF
the Indian his occupation has vanished
and if YOU discover one today he is either
a very. old man or else a very untruthful
one, especially in California, where the
hostile savages has not been seen in many
years.
One of the few authenticated Indian
fighters of California, relates the San
Francisco Call, is old Jackson Farley,
commonly known as "Uncle Jack" who
lives on his ranch high up in the moun
tains of Mendocino county.
Uncle Jack has passed his 92nd birth
day and will modestly admit the killing
of 100 Indians. Only ne will not say that
he killed them; "stopped' is his favor

that originated with him in the early SOS
and subsequently became official vernac-
