story came from Birmingham of a suit
a young man named w. f. Beck had

have married another young man,
and gagged his damage at $40, 900. The
case was called in the United States

Graphophones are particularly adapted
to out-of door use, and are, therefore,
specially available for lawn parties and
all out door gatherings at the summer

indoors and the energy is lacking with
which to entertain family and friends,
the Graphophone stands ready and
willing to delight and cheer with it's
melody, story and song. It will be the
iolliest member of the jolliest party,
sing rag-time coon songs in inimitable
fashion, tell the most clever and side

STATUES OF MARYLANDERS
Strong Rivalry Of Friends of Howard and
Hanson
For the Place Alongside of Carroll
In the Capitol Build
ing Here.

Speci Il Dispatch to The Evening Star.
STATE HOUSE, ANNAPOLIS, Md, Jan
uary 25.-The state house was in a tumult
yesterday over the question as to what
Maryanders shall have their statues placed
in the Capitol at Washington. The last gen.
eral assembly passed an act under which
the commission appointed for that purpose
desired to erect statues of Charles Carroll
signer of the Declaration of Independence
and John Hanson, president of Congress in
1882. and a contract for the work has
been awarded to Richard E. Brooks of
Boston. Now the Colonial Danes, Sons of
the American Revolution, and kindred So
cieties are up in arms against the action of
the commission, and members Of these as
sociations descended on the capital in
large numbers to enter their protest.
They object to the selection of John Han
son, for whom they wish to substitute Col
John Eager Howard, the revolutionary SOL
dier, and they also object to the choice of
Mr.. Brooks as sculptor, wishing to have the
work done by Marylander. 1t appears to
be too late. however, and the belief is gem
eral that the action Of the commission will
stand. and that Carroll and Hanson will be
honored by having their statues placed in
the Capitol.
The Reform League police reorganiza-
ton bills have been reported favorably
and will probably be passed within a few
diiys. as Dotn parties are pledged to their
enactment
Up to the present time the usual lobby
mas been conspicuous by Its absence from
the state house, but recently the members
OF the third house came down in force, and
business Is expected to boom from now on,
as the regular flood of corporation pluggers
has been started.

nned to his bed He is not expected to be

ence must be the teacher, requiring a given
community to profit by its own mistakes
by letting it bear the consequences. IT. for
example, dishonest city treasurer be
chosen and the safe be emptied, let the
other officials go without their salaries
and the people suffer ia certain measure
of deprivation in order to realize their indie
pendent responsibilities and acquire the
conviction that they must select honest Of
ficials, other considerations, personal or DO
litical, being made subordinate
Il have no doubt that If, these princi-
pies of administration, Of education, and
of the gradual building Up of the sense of
responsibility In the use and endowment of
the suffrage be pursued persistently and
without wavering or variation, the people
of Cuba will rapidly acquire the art of self
government and be able to manage their
own affairs as independently of exterior
Union, which are legally and politically
held to be free and independent sovereign
ties.
Experience All That is Needed.
q believe this because the people have
an unusual measure of intelligence with a
natural respect for authority, notwithstand-
ing that they lack the usage of self-gov-
eminent and need to acquire the habit of
adhesion to general principles of action,
not permitting subordinate issues to i'm
peril the main one, upon which must de-
pend the persistence and success of the
adherence to a given political line of con-
duct.
Il see no reason to believe that the Island
OF Cuba should not in course of time have
as orderly, as responsible. as law-abidilig
and as serious a government as any other
country, whether of her own accord as
a member of the American Union, OR in
dependently thereof. should such conclusion
he chp1 nv the of
cerned.
Il do believe, however, that this condi-
ton cannot be reached Immediately or IN
the immediate future. The percantaS, of
illteracy should at least be reversed and
time is needed to habituate those who en-
JOY the suffrage to the instructive guidance
and regulation of individual self-cs1ltrol and
respect for continuity of admin stiation"

GEN. WOOD AT MANzANILLo.

Cleanliness.
A dispatch from Manzanillo, Cuba, yes
terday says: Governor General Wood,
with his party, arrived here at noon today
on the ingalls, and spent three hours this
afternoon in inspecting the city. which, ac-
cording to a census taken with consider
able care since the American occupation
has population of 1900 He expressed
himself as greatly gratified with the police
record, which showed only two cases I'M
tried.
landing stage and had a short interview
with him. This was devoted chiefly to an
explanation of what Maso has told the resi-
dents OF that locality regarding the doings
of the council of Cuban notables recently
he!a In Havana The people. General Maso
said, seemed to be entirely satisfied, and,
IN 1aet, the province of Santiago looked
upon General Wood as one of its own sons
After inspecting the post of the 10th
cavalry General We ID paid a visit to head
quarters. where he received the mayor of
Manzanlilo, the local judges and other
prominent men. He started on an overland
trip, accompanied by General Chaffee, Col
onel Black and others. with an escort of the
10Th cavalry. All the sugar estates in the
neighborhood were found running on full
time, and any person wanting work can
obtain it in that locality. The public build
ings are gradually taking on an aspect of
prosperity, and everything in the city
proper is looking SO much Detter than IL
did when Colonel Ray took control in Oc-
tober, 1898, that it is difficult to realize
that the old and the new Manzanillo are
the same.
The greatest cordiality exists between
the Americans and Cubans. The public
works have given employment to thous-
ands, and as a result thei whole section is
filled with small farmers owning their land,
oxen and TOOLS There s3no wasted char
ity. Here, at least, INDECENT rations'' are
not given to people who do not need them.
The only charitable organizations are an
orphan asylum, hospital and a dispensary,
free to poor people.
The ingalls,. with General Lee and those
of the party who did not accompany Cen
eral Wood overland, will sail at daybreak
tomorrow for Santiago. -ss,-,.-
