The Murder Of I.awtOn.

While the nation is mourning the death
OF Gen. Henry w. Lawton; while citi-
zens everywhere are showing their ap-
probation of the noble services of the
beave man who is gone, the following
words written by Gen. Lawton himself a
little over month ago, are strikingly
impressive:
"I would to Goi the whole trnth of this
whole Philippine situation could be
known to everyone in America as know
it. If the so-called anti-imperialists
would honestly ascertain the truth on
the ground and not in distant Americ',
they, whom believe to be honest men,
misinformed, would be convinced of the
error of their statements and conclusions,
and of the unfortunate effect of their pub
iications here. If am shot by a Filipino
bullet it might as well come from one OF
my own men, because know from OBJ
servation, confirmed by captured prison.
ers, that the continuance of the fighting
is chiefly due to reports that are sent out
from America"
These pathetic words containing al
most prophecy, were written in sorrow,
not in anger. That is the only comfort
ing assurance they contain for the "hon-
est but misinformed" Americans whose
unwise, unpatriotic course inspired the
ignorant insurrectionists to murder one
who was their sincere friend at heart.
Not Lawton's blood alone, but that OF
hundreds OF other gallant soldiers, stains
the hands of those who have been up
holding tho hands of Aguinaldo. Let the
misguided and prejudiced partisans who
have sought to make political capital out
of Filipino pretensions behold the con-
sequences of their work.-PittSburg Com.

The Waltz king.

II saw Johann Strauss, the dead waltz
king, in Boston in 1871 at the Worlds
Peace jubilee" said a Cleveland profes'
sional man. ''He was little 'chumping
chack' of a fellow, as n German citizen
remarked to me at the time, and the only
mark of genius that l could discern
about him aside from his hair was the
impression that he was full of waltz
rhythm to his very finger tips.
''He led his own waltzes as il he ador'
ed them. You don't get the same idea
from Sousa's rather stereotyped march
leading, but Strauss thrilled and trem
bled and swayed and bobbed like a mar
bitten by waltz tarantula. He had 9
violin in his left hand, and he used bott
fiddle and bow as batons. Then he't
clap the violin to his chin and saw away
for dear life. How he did bring out the
rhythm of the Beautiful Blue Danube
and Wine, Wife and Song" 1t seems t.
me that we don't hear any real waltz
playing now. And the king is dead

The convening of Congress and the
bringing together of representative men
from all over the country call forth num-
erous expressions and emphacise the
fact that things are different row from
what they were in 1896. Numbers of
Congressman who supl orted Bryan and
silver in that year, whether from convic-
tion or policy, now that the sentiment
among their constituents has radically
changed as a result of the country's re-
markable prosperity, make no hesitancy
in stating that the reai1irmation of the
Chicago platform and the Reimbursement
of Bryan would be a grave mistake, and
that, should this occur, they cannot
promise their support.

A Porter Tells How some Employees
Make Money.


One would think that the check sys-
tens of today afforded no chances for
dishonesty, but the system used by the
Pullman company, which seems almost
perfection itself, is defrauded by at least
$500,000 annually.
l will endeavor to explain how it Is
done. Say, for instance, that party or
four bound for Quebec should board the
Pullman sleeper which leaves this city
nightly and wanted to pay cash fares. A
dishonest conductor and porter would
"size them up" and il they thought the
marty "all right" the conductor would
probably issue passengers ticket, which
would be filed in and punched correctly,
but would fill in and punch the porter's
check to read, Zone passenger, Spring
field to Quebec" thereby pocketing three
fares, or $3.50. This is divided equally
between conductor and porter. No con-
ductor can be dishonest without being
detected by his porter, as the porter is
supposed to turn in at his district office
after each trip check for every passen-
ger that has ridden on his car.
Then, again, conductor who is little
timid would fill in and punch the porter's
check, -Four passengers, Springfield TO
Newport, VT" MS il they were not going
through to Quebec, and the passengers
check, "Four passengers, Springfield to
Quebec" thereby stealing 81. So much

panded so that one order Is served for
two, two for four, and so on. Just from
Boston to Mount Desert ferry l have
known porters to reimburse their purses
as much as $40 IN this way. Their tips
would probably not amount to fifth Of
this amount.
All of these forms of dishonesty do not
go on forever, however, as sooner or later
you have stolen from an unknown Pull
man "spotter." There is small army
of men and women riding about the
country in the interest of this company.
Their duty is not only to detect dishon-
esty, bat incompetency and inattention;
consequently every porter and conductor
has his eye open and is constantly doing
his best, regardless of tips, for fear that
'spotter might be on"
The wages paid porters range from S1j
TO $40 a month. On a popular sleeping
car line such as the noted Bar Harbor
express, porter receives but $40 a
month, but | would prefer that salary In
preference to any $50 position that could
be offered me. 1t is worth double the
amount at times. The porters of such
sleeping car lines as Springfield to Lewis
and Montreal, Boston to Lewis and
Montreal, Boston to Bangor and many
other lines, pay $50 month. The tips
on these lines are also good at times
Buffet car porters generally receive q
salary of $25 month, which in most
cases should be banked, as the tips in
these cars are generally sufficient to pay
a consderate mans expenses. The high
est wages paid Pullman porter is $40
month. These positions are termed "por
ter in charge" as the porter performs
the duties of both conductor and porter

not now vassals or oppressed. Cypress
