Hon. l.. A. Pradt'S many friends in
Grand Rapids will be glad to read the
following item about him published
in the last issue of the Wausau
Contradiction. Louis A. Pradt is
giving the government good service as
assistant attorney general and is
winning a wide reputation for him
self His most recent triumph was
the defeat of what is known as the
BlaidSdell claim, which was for more
than So, 100000. 1t was claimed that
first mortgage bonds of the Central
Pacific railroad company had been
deposited with the u. S. government:
that they were collected and the
money retained by the government.
The case came into the court of claims
in 1897 and since that time Mr.. Pradt
has made careful research and in
veStigatiOn and when the case was
called made a motion to dismiss. The
showing made by Mr.. Pradt was
sufficient to support the motion and
the claim was defeated"

SPAR ED THEIR LIVES.
An Int. veSting Story of the Kindness oi
 tEe Late President Heureau1,

Some years ago a conspiracy, headed by several prominent young men of the Santo Domingo republic, who hoped te gain wealth and position through the death of Heureaux, attempted to take his life and start a revolution. Their plot was cleverly planned and seem- higly sure of success, for the president showed no suspicious continuing his customary mode of life, walking and driving throughout the city as usual without guards, although at that time he was fully posted in every detail of their scheme, and when their plans were fully matured and their time for action at hand he had them all arrest ed and thrown into the dungeons of the old Notifications. The penalty for crimes of this sort is always death, SO soon after their arrest they were 1rawn up in line on the old parade grounds within the walls of the old fort and told to prepare for death, after which the firing squad lined up in front of them and were ordered to fire. AS they did so anly One man fell lie ptcoluSAls Nlio Wao q "iehSoA'i then stepped forward and said: My children, you have attempted to ruin sour country and take my life, and for th.s you are legally subject to death, nut do not want to see you die so young. That man on the ground had to give up his life to pay the penalty 'vr his misdeeds. If you ever plot against me again you will be where he Is. Look at him, remember what have said, and then go, for you are free"

POWER OF AUTHORITY.
Lack of Respect for 1t Causes Many
 Political Crimes

The authority of the state is as sacred in its own place as the author ity of the home, and that nation which above all personal and individual rights holds the law of the land and the government of the nation in the highest esteem is the nation which will insure its final prosperity And yet there are those, and they are not in small number, in this and other lands, who rebel against the constituted au- thorit: -S their governmsnt, and at the same time consider themselves good citizens. European rulers have been assassinated, two attempts have been made upon the life of England's queen, and in our country Presidents Lincoln and Garfield were foully murdered. And what was the primary cause of these terrible tragedies? Nothing more nor less than lack of respect fer constituted authority. And there are those today who, while perhaps they will not resort to such deeds of Violence, nevertheless have a hatred of the government of the nation, be- cause, forsooth, the political party which they favor does not happen to be in power. With such people, no matter what the chief executive of the nation does, it is wrong No matter how carefully political affairs, the af- fairs of the nation, are planned and managed, the whole government in their opinion (anything but humble opinion, by the way) consists of a set of thieves, robbers, money-grabbers and the like, who are only at the seat of government with the one intention of seeing what they can make out of their term of office. In some cases this may be more or less true; but if it is, it certainly does not excuse any loyal and patriotic citizen of this great re- public from being bound to pay his Taeed of homage and respect for the constituted authority of the govern ment of his country.-Donohee,s Maga- zine

From Which the Islands Es.-g Was
 Originally Designed.
 New York Tribune: There Is now on exhibition in the conserv 4tery Of Pros pect park Towering plant which is knowe# in Cuba as Blanco EstrelIa de Cine0 Puntas. This plant is particu- larly interesting as the Gubans orig mated the design of their flag from the flower of the plant. The box of plants was received by Park Commissioner George Y. Brewer, with the regards of Ca. Atwood French, who is sta4 toned in Crisbo, Cuba Capt. French, in his letter which accompanied the box of plants, states that the Cubans derive the emblematic star in their national flag, iii eolor and the number of points, from the flower, which is white star with five points The star emblem is used by the Cubans on all the buttons of their uniforms, in stick pins, brooches and jewelry worn by women. Continuing, the captain says:
 The plant is, truly speaking. la Cuban in almost every particular, ex- cept, of course, color, as no one ever saw Cuban lady as blanco as is this flower, except after cinco o'clock D. m., when she sallies forth with blanco powder (thick), accompanied by her chaperon Gin all cases), usually little brother or the old grandmother. who is on the watch to see that she 5oes not notice the young Cuban beau and blush the blase eoloring away and give them encouragement. They are ex- ceedingly shy and reserved, and never look at any one while taking their daily afternoon promenade"

A Clean Coal Mine.

The Chilian coal mines, opened in 1855, seem to be nice places to work i'll. The seam of coal runs from the shore under the waters of the Pacific ocean, and the tunnels are so clean that you could walk through them in dress suit without making yourself dirty. They are lighted by electricity, and you can have a ride for mile under the ocean on an electric car at speed of twenty miles an hour. The mines form quite catacomb of well-Hghteo passages under the water. The out nut of coal is now 1000 tons a day. and 75o miners are employed ir them.

London, Dec. 28.-The paucity and
obscurity Of the dispatches from South
Africa give rise to renewed anxiety.
Apparently the disturbed area Of Cape
Colony extends farther south than it
did last December, and Lord Kitchener
does not appear to have had much
success as yet in driving back the in
vaders.
The war Office had received no news
last evening Of the reported capture
Of yeomanry near Britstown.
A Burghersdorp dispatch has mys-
ferrous reference to IAN unfortunate
mistaking of the enemy for Brabant's
horse, which resulted in the sounding
Of cease fire. and enabled the Beers
to occupy all the commanding posi-
tons, the British retiring from diff
ficult predicament."
