BENEVOLENT ASSIMILATION.
benevolent assimilation is a good
phrase, but some of the inhabitants Of
Puerto Rico don't think it is as good
a thing as it has been cracked up to
| be. A merchant of Puerto Rico, who is
mind about the way benevolent assimi-
lation looks to him just now. He says
| that his countrymen had fully expected
to have free trade with the United
States, and that serious arrangement
of business in the island would follow
a refusal to grant free trade. why
should we not have free trade with the
northern ports?" he asks. IF we are
worth the taking to the American gov
eminent, are we not worth the max
ing?" And he adds: We claim open
trade with the northern ports by terri
torial right Spain offered us induce
ments to trade with her when we be-
longed to her. England now offers 9TH
ers. The United States must do some
thing for us. The actual condition of
the island cannot be realized Things
are ruined. Unless some steps are TAX
en- to better cur trade conditions / fear
for the. results. The military govern
ment of the island is ridiculous. Ad-
yantages taken by Americans to press
financial claims in the Federal court
against natives are creating a feeling
OF distrust. Americans are being APP
pointed to government positions over
the natives. 1t so happens that the
American employees are now being paid
in gold and the native help in silver.
Really, the natives believe their condi-
ton is not as good as under Spanish
rule, and we do not see why Americans
should invade Puerto Rico to take
away liberties granted by Europeans,
1t is humiliatin to be told that we
haven't succeeded in convincing the
Puerto Ricans that we are no better
than the Spaniards. OF course we are
better, and everybody ought to know it.

ly deserves, perhaps, special notice,
sentiment which Is manifested in vari-
GUS forms, including the more substan-
tial one Of numerous, offers of enrol
ment in the British army. Foremonst
and prominent among the Greeks are
the Cretans, who miss no opportunity
of expressing their gratitude to Eng
land for the efflcaeious help offered
them during their struggle for emanci-
patton from Turkish rule The island
ers follow with keen interest the vicis-
situdes of the war, and the newspapers,
whenever they discover among the VIC
TINS the name of any brave officers or
soldiers whom they had known during
the British occupation Of Crete, are
eager to express in every possible way
their heartfelt sorrow and grateful af-
fiction. Lately, in a debate in the
Greek Chamber with respect to a me-
mortal service to be held for the Eng
lish who have fallen on the battlefields
of South Africa, most memorable and
significant speeches were delivered by
prominent MEMBERS all laying stress
on the warm sympathy left by the.
whole OF the Greek people towards Eng
land. The following is an extract from
the speech Of the Prime Minister, M.
Theotokis:
1T is the right Of the Greek govern
ment to declare that in the innerinost
soul of every Greek there is deep sor-
row for the reverses Of England, to-
wards whom remote as well as very re-
cent history imposes upon ue feelings
of, the deepest gratitude England has
not only contributed efficaciously to the
creation of Greek state, but only late
ly has she again rendered us, among
the first, helpful hand in our misfor
tunes. There is no Greek who can for
get England's kindness, and these feel
ings will always remain in the hearts
of the Greeks as long as Greece exists.

FORESTS AND STR EAMS.

The question of the relation of forests
to the run-off of streams has become an
exceedingly important one in many
parts of the United States where lum-
much diversity of opinion among scien-
tifc men, The Division of Forestry of
the United States Department of Agri-
culture has selected southern California
as the field for an exhaustive series of
measurements and Investigations for the
purpose of securing accurate knowledge
concerning this matter. After examin
ing many watersheds and securing the
advice of a number of hydraulic engi-
neers the Division of Forestry has chos-
en- the watershed which embraces the
sources of the Mohave river in the San
Bernardino Mountains, as the best cen
ter for experiments. The work will be-
gin soon and will embrace a comprehen-
sive study of the present forest cover,
considered in relation to the rainfall and
the flood capacity of streams, The area
selected contains three distinct types

trict; the Little Bear shed, which has
been denuded by numbering, and the
Deep Creek shed, still covered with
heavy virgin forest. These areas are

FASHION MOI rs.


No woman should be censured who
doesn't try to wear her best gloves at
the theater. One act of handling the
inky programme will put them in such
shape that~they can't be told from a
twice-cleaned pair. Fashionablee will
not endorse this, of course but continue
to wear to the playhouse the best gloves
In their stock. Probably the most ex-
elusive sort for this use IS medium
weight pique in pearl gray that has
the faintest suggestion of green. The
backs are corded and self stitched.
Gloves that have black stitching each
side of the white cord look swagger in
the hand but such stitching usually is
single machine work and when on the
hand stretches unevenly. Another sort

1t Is related that while shopping at
Stratford-o n-Avon recently Marie
Corelli, the novelist was much annoy
ed by almost, continuous piano practice
in a female seminary across the way.
Driven to desperation at length, she
addressed somewhat snappy note to
the principal of the school, asking that
during piano practice the windows be
closed. The school master replied that
if the music would prevent the COM
position of another such book as
Corelli's 1.-THE Sorrows of Satan" she
would cheerfully order another dozen
pianos.

down the aisle like whirlwind and

cation. When he reached the pulpit
he would take up his discourse where
he had left off.

The situation looks anything but
pleasant for the British in South
Africa, and the London government
has called of the war dogs !or ten
days or two weeks to wait for rein
forcements to reach the field. In the
mean time it is to be hoped that the
Beers will make use Of the halt and
give them q severe blow. England
is somewhat despondent over the Sit
uation, and thousands of fresh troops
are on their way to Africa. England's
casualties so far are line thousand
FIVE hundred, of which about twenty
five hundred have been killed, four
thousand eight hundred wounded,
and the rest captured. There is no
Justice in the war that England is
wag,ng against these poor Boers, and
speaking not from spirit of human
ity of course, which is seldom an e!e-
ment in war, but from desire 10 see
retribution, we hope the Beers will
make England pay dearly for the
Transvaal before she captures It.
