The tragedy in China puts upon

eighty in the Philippines having been

time since the great army of the Civil
war was disbanded, and it Is imp ossi-
BILE to say with precision how many
soldiers are now called Cor: but there
is rule of extreme simplicity for de-
termining their number. As many
men must be sent to China as are
needed to restore to American citi-
Zens the safety in property and per-
son guaranteed to them by treaty,
and to obtain from the Chinese gov
eminent the redress proper for the
murders that have been committed.
AS many men must be in the Philip
pines as are needed to carry to a sue
cessful conclusion the task of putting

or bandits. Happily at this unparal-

POOR OLD KENTUCKY.

Man born in the mountains of Kentucky is of feud days and full of virus. He fsheth, fddleth and fighteth all the days of his miser- able life.
 He shunneth water as a mad dog and drinketh much msan whiskey.
 When he desireth to raise h-I he planteth a neighbor, and To! he reapeth twenty fold. Heriseth even from his cradle to seek the scalp of his grandsire's enemy, and bring home in his carcass the ammun1- ton of his wife's cousins fatherin law, who avengeth the decd.
 Yes, verlly his life IS uncertain and he knows not the hour when he may be jerkad hence.
 He goeth forth on journey half shot and coneth back on a shutter, shot.
 He riseth in the night to let the cat out, and it taketh nine doctors three days to pick the buokshot out of him.
 He goolh forth in joy and glad ness and cometh back in scraps and fragments.
 A cyclone bloweth him into the bosom of his neighbours wife aud his neighbor's wife's husband hloweth him into Abraham's bosom befare he has time to explain.
 He emptieth a demijoh into him self and q shotgun into his enemy, and his enemy's son lieth in wait for hlm on election day, and To! the coroner plowsth a forty acre field to bury the remains of that man.
 Woe, woe is Kentucky, for her eyes are red with bad whiskey and her soul is stained with the blood of innocent moonshiners.-Ex

The striking and important events of the last year have established the overw i,elming value of the THRICE-A- WEEK WORLD to every reader. For an almost nominal sum it has kept it's subscribers informed of the pro- gress of all our wars and, moreover, has reported them as promptly and fully as if it were a daily. With our interests still extending throughout the world, with our troops operating in the Philippines, and the great pres ident'al campaign, too, at hand, it's value IS further increased.
 The motto of. the THRICE-A,WEEK WORLD is improvement. It strives each year to be better than it was the year before, and public confidence in 1t Is shown by the fact that it now circulates more than twice as many papers every week as any other news paper, not a daily, published in America.
 To all new subscribers we offer this unequaled newspaper and THE ARI- IONA SENTINEL together one year for $2.65.
