THE WISDOM OF SEED DIsTRIBU-
TIONS.

In the house of representatives the
preparation for the distribution Of seeds
by the department of agriculture was
under discussion, and some opposition
was manifested by several members who
penoiture. One congressman remarked
that 1t would be better to supply work.
ingmen with dinner pals. The. appro-
priation finally passed and the seed dis.
tribution viii take place as heretofore.
AS to the value of distributing seeds
broadcast over the country. 1t all de-
pends upon the manner in which it is
done, and the kind and quality of the
seeds distributed. The primary object is
not to furnish citizens with common
seeds wherewith to plant their farms and
gardens, but to furnish samples Of seeds
and plants. more or less rare, and which
are not indigenous to the country or to
the district, with a view to their cultiva-
ton and acclimation. 1t is in fact, In
tended as a practical extension of the
objects of state and national experimental
farms and If judiciously carried out could
not fail to be of great value.
There are many useful foreign plants
which could no doubt be successfully
grown in parts of the United States, ard
within the United States there are many
plants which, while at present confined
to the districts where tfiey appear to be
indigenous, could be successfully and
profitably grown In other districts. The
intelligent selection and distribution Of
these foreign and home plants or the
seeds or cuttings thereof is the proper
and the Original idea of this annual seed
distribution. There is no reason why the
eultivator of a small garden plot in a
city or it's suburbs should be excluded
from the benefits of the distribution.
Many such persons are expert and eager
horticuEturists and fiericulturlsts and are
enninentfy well fitted for experimental
work. They are usually in an excellent
position to make careful notes and re-
ports on such experimental work, and
their work taken in conjunction with the
broader. more extensive experimental
work possible on farms would result in
the experimental field being thoroughly
we'll covered and of great value to the
agrieulturist as well as to the florist and
frliit-EIoWing interests of the country

The tables groan with hearty cheer
They have not known for one long year
With SpudS and eggs and tea ana fiSn
And buttered bread-an man could wish.
Oh. glad the eye and glib the tongue
Of smiling old and laughing young
That draw their stools and chairs around
Or gayly squat upon the ground
But passing great is little Mick;
The stacks before him vanish quick
This Easter morn in Ireland!
This Easter morn in Ireland.
With jest and joke and chat and chaH,
Bright repartee and heart loud laugh,
Across the moor to early mass
In pairs and bands the neighbors pass.
There plotting low evening stroll,
Trip Patrick Kane and Rosie Cole;
Mid spellbound group, with many saw
Big Eamon Ban lays down the law,
All hearts go gayly feet go light;
The world is good and life is bright
This Easter morn in Ireland!
This Easter morn in Ireland
The linnet. robin, wren and thrush
Make musical each budding bush;
The hills are lit with whittier glow.
With softer song the Streamlets now.
All bliss is there, all cares forgot,
Sweet joys abound and pain is not
Upon the gay and gladstone sight
The sun smiles down with new delight;
Earth seems a bridal robe to wear
All, would. my heart. /. too. were there

TRUST TO OUR HONOR.
Cubans Out of Work Will Depend on
Uncle Sam For Support.

Havana. May 2.-Carlos Cespedes
says there is no fear of a rising in the
eastern provinces. Nevertheless. the
labor problem will have to be solved,
therefore now that the crops are gath
cred, many will be out of work in that
part of the earth. He thinks that most
of the CubanS in Santiago province sup
port the programme of the national
party, trusting to the honor of the United
States for the establishment of an in
dependent government.
THE best way of dealing with both
honest men and ~scoundrels,' he says
lis to put them on their honor"
Col. Francisco Valiente, former chief
Of the Rural Mounted police of Santiago
province, says: Most of the people of
the province are overwhelmingly in
favor of the Union Democratic party.
They do not desire to force the hand of
the United States. They do lot consider
that Cuba is yet in a condition where
the United States should leave her to
herself"
So far as the rumors of rebellion are
concerned, Ell Dorado de la Marina, says:
such a thing is absurd. The Cubans
now know that they can not expect eve
a single rifle in the shape of assistance
from outside. Beyond this, the revolu-
tionists are divided among themselves
and the negroes, who did more of the
fighting, are disconnected because they
are now left out in the cold"

GOVERNOR "WORKED.''
Issued Conditional RequisitiOn
But Sheriff Paid No Atten-
ion to Condition.

Governor Stanley will not have the OPP
p~ortunity of deciding whether William
Airport should be returned to Illinois
for prosecution, ecauSe the offlcer,
Sheriff Bruner of McDonough county
has returned his prisoner to that state.
Governor Stanley issued a requisition
for Airport but instructed the officer to
bring the prisoner to Topeka for a hear
ing, because a Galena attorney had no
tilted the governor that they desired to
resist the reQuisition.
The governor aeceded to this request,
and arranged that Airport should be
brought to Topeka for a hearing Mon
day.
Governor Stanley came to Topeka
Monday afternoon to conduct the ear
ing. The only thing which prevented
the hearing was the absence of b pris-
oner.
Tuesday the prisoner and the sheriff
failed to appear, whereupon h COVER
nor grew somewhat nervous, a feeling
which was not practically pacified
when the late mails brought no infor-
nation from the parties.
The cas against Airport was the re-
vival of an old charge of false ~pretense
alleged to have been committed several
years ago. He a been for sometime
a resident of Kansas. His attorney not
ifed the governor that Alloprt Would
resist the proceedings to secure his re-
turn to Illinois.
When the governor issued the state
warrant in response to a request from
the governor of Illinois, he instructed
the sheriff to bring Airport to Topeka
for the hearing. If in the opinion of the
chief executive, Airport should not be
arrested and returned to Illinois, the
warrant was to be revoked, and tbs
prisoner released.
In a letter to the governor received
today. Leo Camp. county attorney a
McComb, Ill, the non-appeArance o.
Airport at the state house, is explained
Mr.. Camp says that Mr.. Airport ex
pressed no desire to evade the process

TO SELL OUT.
Navy Department to Dispose of Tugs
and Yachts.

New York, May "A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
The navy department is considering
the ACCESSIBILITY of selling all the steam
yachts, tug boats and small vessels I,ur-
chased as auxiliaries just after the de-
struction of the Maine two years ago.
The larger vessels which are useful as
golfers and transports will be retained,
as well as a few smaller vessels which
are actively engaged in surveys and po-
lice duty in Cuban and Central Ameri-
can waters. There are about twenty
yachts and as many tugs that are laid
up at navy yards and rapidly going to
pieces for want or repairs and proper
care. It is said by the naval construct
ors and engineers that these vessels
deteriorate much more rapidly when laid
up than when in commission performing
actual duty.
An instance is given in the case of
one of the fine yachts. Her decks are
warped by the sun until they must be
renewed. Her engines and boilers are
badly rusted and many new parts will
have to be substituted. This is due to
the lack of 0 to enable yard Off
Gals to give the vessel constant atren-
ton. If she had a crew aboard her
decks would be soaked down every day,
and the machinery would not have an
opportunity to rust. It is proposed now
to have an appraisal made of all the
auxiliaries that are not likely to be
useful for naval purposes and Offer
