The summary dismissal Of Russell Harrison m

an attempt TO reflect on his father, whether 1t
was so intended or not, and as the Administra-
ton never troubled itself 10 show any respect for
the ex-PreSident during the past foHr years it IS
quite probable that there j. exactly this con
temptible motive in the proceeding. There are
some very small things in p6li.ics now and then.

Danger In the Church.

Not long since the Bishop of L- was a guest at a dinner party at Bir- mingham, when lady noted Tor her witty remarks, who was a guest, said:
 ''Do you know that there are times when it is dangerous to enter a church:"
 What is that, madam:' inquired the bishop with great dignity, straight ening himself in his chair.
 There are times when it is posi- lively dangerous to enter church, y was the lady's reply,
 That cannot be, madam : said the bishop, pray explain"
 Why, said the lady, ''it is when there is a canon at the reading desk, a big gun in the pulpit when the bishop is charging his clergy, the choir mur- dering the anthem and the OrganiSt trying to drown the choir. "- Golden Penny.

The Cuban Revolution.

Spain lost l25 ,0O0 soldiers in Cuba. The revolution cost 5OO,OOO Cuban lives. Jose Marti raised the flag of in- dependence in February, 1895 Ameri- can intervention occurred in April, 1898. American occupation began January l, 1899. The figures of this shocking mortality are reached off cially. It is known that Spain sent to Cuba to crush the revolution 225,0O soldiers. Capt. w. B. Barker had charge of the repatriation of Cuban soldiers from Santiago and Clenfuegos after the exploitation. From Santi- ago he shipped to Spain 763 officers, 20,974 soldiers, 2l3 priests and FOG women and children. These included the garrsOns brought from Manzan- illO, Guantanamo, Baracoa and Sagua de Tanamo, as well as the troops sur rendered to Shafter at Santiago. From CienfuegOs Capt. Barker shipped sOi officers and 22,9j0 men. The total shipped home from Santiago and Cien- fuegoS was l5,50l. Repatriation took place from only two other ports of Cuba. From Havana the Spanish troops embarked for Spain numbered 3j,C0O, and from Matanzas 1O.oOO. The best obtainable figures show that dur ing the three years of revolution Spain sent home l5,OOO soldiers, inca paciated for duty. The total army losses to Spain therefore were between 12O,000 and l2j,0O0. This" says Capt Barker, Il regard as a cOnserva- tive estimate. Capt. Barker was the United States consul at Sagua la Grande during the period of the reyo- lution and only left Cuba when war was declared between the United States and Spain. He has been watch ing the progress of the census and says: II think that the census. when completed, will indicate that 5O0,0 ,000 Cubans lost their lives in the three years.

The Case of Porto Rico.

Why not protect Kansas against the corn of Oklahoma and Washington against the fish of Alaska, and Cali fUrnia against the minerals and fruits of Arizona? Porto Rico is q part of the United States by no fault of her own. Itis the first duty of the United States to see that every possi- ble aid to self-supporting employment is extended to the people of that country. The chief products of the island are sugar, tobacco coffee and fruits. In the matter of coffee. there is-no clamor for the sandbagging of our helpless ward because no coffee is grown on the mainland of the United States. Sugar, tobacco and fruits we

 "l have only this prediction to make that liberty and self-goyern- ment win triumph in South Africa. The maltreated, abused farmers of that sturdy little republic will win or make the beginning of the end of the English empire.
 God alone knows the serfdom to which the Boers have been shackled ever since they became q recognized people. They are struggling ior a freedom that is theirs by divine right, and we, as the supporters of the grandest republic on earth, are COW ards to look down from our pinnacle of Self-government at these strugglerS for liberty without expressing q sin cere hope that the English yoke will never clasp their necks.'

DenOuneing Prince Tuan and His

That Earl Ii Is to Make Part of HIS
Voyage on Russian Warship.

| London, Sept 15-4 40 a. m.--Accord-
ing to the Shanghai correspondent of the
Times wiring Wednesday, Earl Ii con-
siders that the preliminary difficulty Of
the negotiations consists in the neces-
sity, which he realizes of denouncing
Prince Tuan and his accompices to the
throne. He is of opinion that it would
be advisable for the allies to take the
initiative by compiling a list of those
held chiefly responsible and by formu-
lating their demands accordingly.
Lii Hung Chang will be taken on
board a Russian warShip at WI Sung
and received by the Russians at Taku,
says the Shanghai correspondent Of the
Morning Post, "and he will be accom-
panied by the Chinese minister of rail-
ways"

empress dowager on September . at

dated September 12, saying that 5000
Russians had arrived there during the

ing Post says: France and Russia, |
have been assured, have agreed to de-
mand the complete disarmament of Chi
ma, including the razinf of the Taku
forts and the Notifications and arsenals

The Russian legation in Pekin, as
cording to a Taku special, dated Tues

VertIicts of Coroner's Juries I'm HObOizen
Disaster Charges.

New York, Sept, 1.-two coroners'
juries, which had inquired into the
deaths of victims of the Hoboken dock
fire returned their verdicts tonight.
The first inquest embraced all of the
victims who perished by drowning ard
it's primary object was to inquire into
the alleged inhumanity of tugboat cap
tains From the testimony of about
twenty witnesses the jury concluded
that the stories were well founded, but
the names of none of the captains could
be learned. The jury in its verdict
said:
1--WE are of the opinion from the evil
dence before us that the loss of life at
that time by drowning would have
been lessened if some of the tugboat
employees In the neighborhood had de-
voted more time to saving life than to
looking for gains by salvage"
In the second inquest embracing the
burned victims the verdict was that
the origin of the fire was unknown to
the jury.

London, Sept 15.-According to the
Lourenzo Marques correspondent of the

ally prisoner in the residence of the
district governor. This is at the in
stance Of the British consul, who pro-
tested against Mr. Kruger using Por-
tuguese territory as a base for direct
ing his executive.
The French consul has been forbid
den access to Mr.. Kruker, as have also
the latter's own officials The district
governor has notified Herr Pott, the
Netherlands consul, that he (PotO who
had acted as the Boer consular agent
at Lourenzo Marques, can no longer be
recognized as a representative of the
Transvaal which is now British terri
tory.
Il have had an interview with the
American attatche, who is homeward
bound" says the correspondent, "and
he is of the opinion that hostilities
may drag on for a considerable time as
the Beers in their despair threaten to
fight to the death.
Acting Presiednt Shalk- k-Burger ar
rived here to-day (Friday) to confer
with Mr.. Kruger; but he was not per-
mitted to see him, and he returned inn
mediately to the Transvaal."
"The imperial government" says the
Cape Town correspondent of the
Standard, intends at an early date to
declare a state of peace in South Africa
and to issue proclamation that Beers
refusing to lay down arms will be
treated as outlaws"
