Mark Twain is not willing to lay
all the blame on the ssheathen
Chinee." He says: 'tforeigners are
the cause of all the trouble there.
The Chinese don't want them any
more than we want the Chinese.
They have as much right as a ma
ton to exclude foreigners as we
have to exclude them. China never
wanted the foreigners, and if the
foreigners were gone the trouble
would be all over. Now my sym
pathies are all with the Boxers.
The Boxers are the only patriots
China has got. The newspapers
call them hard names, but all they
are after is to get the foreigners out
of their country, and I hope they
may have all success In doing SO.
If am opposed to the Chinaman
being here :hen I am Boxer, and
the only difference between US Box
crs here and the China Boxers is
that we carried our point and the
Chinese didn't"

Sheriff Freeman of Simon County,
Colorado, where a negro rapist was
recently burned to death by mob
of Infatuated citizens, is not willing
to shoulder all ,he responsibility
for the summary execution of the
brute nor is he disposed to shed
crocodile tears for the edi6cation
of holier-than-thou hypocxites who
evince a vulgar penchant for black
fends. In recent interview Sher-
if Freeman says:
II do not Justify the cremation, but 1 do
object to having you and Governor Thomas
saddle the blame of this burning on me, and
I will not involve Lincoln county in a need
less and fruitless litigation against its own
citizens or give additional Advertisement to
the State of Colorado for the sole purpose
of making, as it seems to me, political CAPT.
tai for somebody. I want to add that poll
tics cut no ice in this affair. While Lincoln
county is a Republican county, the men who
participated in this lynching were represen-
tatives of all political parties. When it
comes to administering death to brute who
first raPes q child and then stabs and kicks
her to death, take it that true Americans
lose sight of mere politics and remember
only that they are fathers and brothers. 1t
seems to me that we had better let this
episode rest where it is now.''

New York Press.
When I get married 1 want to
have fat pail bearers.
Fat women have to be honest,
but every thin woman is really thin
ner than she looks.
The average man would rather
marry girl that chews tobacco
than a girl that winks.
When woman proposes she calls
it "making love-" when man
makes love she calls it proposing.
A woman can never fool her hus-
band into thinking she needs a trip
by saying that her face is '.the best
part of her,"
Every healthy girl likes to be
kissed. The only question is
whether you are one OF the men
that she likes to have 10 do it.
If women were angels, they would
probably use their arms to hold a
man and their wings to pretend to
push him away with.
The most pleasure a woman gets
out of getting a telegram she gets
from imagining all the things be-
fore she opens it that she knows
aren't in it.

1t 10 now generally believed that
the pledge of Congress to give in
dependence to the Cubans will
never be fulfilled. For some time
syndicates have set their greedy eyes
on the island, seeing in its vast pos.
abilities 4 most fruitful field for
speculation. It is also said that the
better classes of people in the
island advocate annexation, fearing
that an independent government
will not result in q wise administra-
ton of public affairs. It is need
less to say that the American Off
cials in Cuba will do their utmost
to bring about annexation which
means to them continuation of
tat berths and handsome salaries.
It is limited at Washington that the
administration is encouraging the
movement toward annexation. No
who one has watched the vacillating
policy of the administration believes
that any Congressional pledge or
promises of the president will be
permitted to stand in the way of
the solution dictated by the cor
porations of the East.
