Furnishing the Porch.

Whether you approach the house by
driveway or graveled walk is a matter
of detail, says the Philadelphia Press;
but, having approached, the doorway is
a matter of great importance We have

with wide low steps, broad porch. heavy
columncd portals and door cut in two.
There is the Queen Anne style, with but
a tiny stoop, q gabled hood over the door.
way and glass studded panels for the
door. If in choosing your style you have
selected the broad porch which for two,
thirds of the year in this locality means
an extra outdoor living room, there is a
wide range for artistic furnishing. There
should always be benches built in. Fiber
rugs and wicker furniture cannot be too
profusely provided. Your porch may be
cut in two by Japanese curtains, which
may be used in case you are near a thor
oughfare to screen this outdoor family
gathering place from public view. To
live out from under a roof is one of the
greatest blessings that we can have af
forded us. We appreciate it too little,
strive after ii too little. In fact, too few
of us consider the matter at all. But
the best architects of today are thinking
of this for us. And by the magnificent
porches with which they are surrounded
the best class of suburban dwellings are
offering us chances never before given.

SUCCESS AND FAILURE.
The Higher the Purpose the RareI
the Achievement.

tHt
If by success we mean the full ac-
complishment of an end, the actual
reaping of Il harvest of results, then it
is undoubtedly true that the higher
and noblcr the purpose the rarer will
be the success. If we aim to relieve
mans hunger, we can quickly succeed
in the easy task, but If we aim to IN
spirc him with desire to earn his own
bread the work is more difficult and
the success far more problematical
If we would restrain thief from rob-
berry. the prison bars and locks insure
success, but if we would make an hon
est man of him our task Is a complex
one. and success may be afar Off. We
undertake to teach child to read. If
with requisite effort we follow up our
task, we are successful, but if we as
pire to raise the educational standard
of our community how arduous the
task, how uncertain the result how
questionable the success.
The low man sees a little thing to do,
Sees it and does it:
The high man, with great thing to pursue,
Dies ere he knows it.
Is his life, then, a failure? No; let
us never imagine that any high pur
pose. any noble thought, any generous
emotion. any earnest effort, is ever lost.
We may never witness its growth, we
may not live to gather its fruit or even
to see its blossoms, but we may safely
trust that somewhere and at some
time the harvest will be abundant, and
success. long hidden, shall become ap'

CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE.
Headquarters to He Removed From
This City to Chicago.

The headquarters of the republican con-
gressional campaign committee, which
heretofore have been maintained in WASH
ington will be removed to Chicago. Chair
man Babcock expects to open headquarters
in that city about June Is.
1t is said that the middle west will be
the scene Of the most vigorous campaign
this year. and 1t is felt that the headquar-
tiers should be established in the heart of
the fray. This will enable the republican
candidates for Congress in the contested
districts to keep in closer touch with head
quarters
Chairman Babcock realizes. it is said.
and the members of the executive COM
mittee also. that they will have a fight on
their hands this year which will be a
fight indeed. The committee proposes,
therefore, to utilize every possible advan-
tage. The contest Will be of character
which will require the closest watching
of every congressional district.
The existing small majority in the House
was obtained upon very narrow margins
in number of congressional districts in
the last election. Majorities of 200 to 600
in vote of 10000 make ticklish propo-
stion. These district will require the clos
est attention, and recent occurrences. 1t is
said have placed other districts in the
doubtful column.
While the congressional committee is not
at this time anticipating defeat, its men,
bers are not losing sight of the fact that
they will have to work hard for victory.

THE VICE PRESIDENCY
REPUBLICAN LEADERS RELUCTANJ
TO TURN FROM NEW YORK.
A Movement to Have the State
Powers Unite on Gen.
Horace Porter.

The republican leaders are reluctant to
turn from New York state in the selection
of the vice presidential candidate. Some
recent reports as to the political situation
in the empire state make an impression
on some that it will not do to overlook any
thing that may strengthen the party there.
Therefore there is a revival of the effort
to induce the New York republicans to
agree on "a candidate who will be acceptable
to the rest of the country. The revival of
this idea has even led some of the men
who have not personally talked with him on
the subject to suggest that after all per-
haps Gov. Roosevelt may be induced to ac-
cept the nomination. Those who are in
the governors confidence no hope in
that direction and are not disposed to give
1t a second thought. Coincident with the
meeting of the subcommittee of the ma
tfonal committee the whole situation has
been canvassed, and it has been decided
not to leave New York out of the calcula-
tion and not to settle on any man outside
that state for Vice President until 1t is
positively shown that New York cannot
present an acceptable candidate. What will
probably be a last trial is a movement now
inaugurated with the purpose of inducing
the New York powers to agree upon Horace
Porter, ambassador to France, and present
his name to the convention.
1t is said that If the New York republi-
cans will agree on Porter among them
selves there will be no difficulty about his
nomination. If this movement fails 1t Is
expected that the whole question will be
dumped into the convention without any
previous adjustment, with Long, Fair
banks. Spooner. Woodruff, Shaw of Iowa,
Dolliver of Iowa, Elkins. Smith and prob
ably others in the open field.
Among democrats in Congress a boom
has been started for Representative ]. r.
Williams of Illinois for the vice presiden-
tial nomination on the ticket with Bryan.
Williams has served several terms in Con-
gress and is regarded as one of the ablest
democrats in the House. He is a good pol
itician, stands we'll in his party from a ma
tional point of view and comes from a
state where the democratic party wants to
make a fight this fall.

SURRENDER IN A BODY.
Change in Policy Of the Insurgent
Fiifpinos.


Recent reports from Gen. Macarthur in
d1cate an encouraging change of policy on
the part of the Filipinos who have been
resisting the sovereignty of the United
States. Heretofore the insurgents, when
they did not retreat onSthe first approach
of the American forces. fought to the
death, with the result that few, if any.
prisoners fell into the hands of the Amer
leans. They at last appear to have realized
the folly of armed resistance, and now
when cornered surrender in a body, with
all their arms and equipment. There have
been several cases Of this kind during the
past week, and the authorities are very
much encouraged over the change of tac-
tics For one. thing it shows that the
Filipinos regard the Americans as honor
able foes and no longer fear to trust their
lives in their hands. zone of the principal
causes of the stubborn resistance on the
part of the insurgents was the feeilng,
1ndustriously melted and encouraged by
their crafty leaders. that they would GER
tainly be killed if they fell into the hands
of the Americans This unfounded dread
has undoubtedly retarded the movement
for the suppression of the insurrection.
Adjutant General Corbin received cable
gram from Gen. Macarthur on this sub
ject this morning. as follows:
MANILA, May %, 1900.
Adjutant General Washington:
Three officers and fifty-siX men, with
forty-SiX rifles. surrendered unconditionally
at Cuyapo yesterday. Three officers and
forty-six men, with fifty-five rifles, sur
rendered unconditionally today at Tarlac.
These spontaneous surrenders are very en-
couraging. MACARTHUR.
The Situation.
General Corbin said that General Mac
Arthur's dispatch shows that the situation
in the Philippines is improving. The pres
ent policy of the army. he said. is to disarm
and not to kill the Filipino insurgents. and
that object is being greatly facilitated by
the action of the Filipino captains In get
ting their men together and surrenderins
In body. In such case the prisoners get
receipts for their arms and ammunition.
There Is no longer any organized resistance
In the Philippines. and the only trouble
comes from bands Of guerrillas who swoop
down on the unprotected natives, steal all
they can lay their hands on and then run
off with their booty before the troops can
reach them. These marauders receive no
mercy from the troops and are shot down
whenever caught laAting their terrorized
countrymen. Every effort is being made
to disarm these bands and to get control Of
all the arms and amnupition in the islands
as an essential preliminary to the establish
ment or civil government in the islands.
with their supply of ammunition cut off
the pandlts and guerrillas would become
practically harmless and their capture
easily effected through the help of the
driendiy friend natives, who would no longer have
cause to fear them. Consequently the vol
untary surrender Of insurgent bodies with
their arms and ammunition is very en-
couragtng to the admins tra ton officials.

Rumor at Cape Town That French

NDLE AT sen Elk Al

LONDON May 2S.-Although the federals
are said to be preparing for strong resist
ance at the Kip river. those who have most
closely followed the progress of the war
since the British and Boer armies came in
touch at Brandfort are very skeptical as to
the burghers seriously disputing Lord Rob-
erts' advance even there. If stand is
made at the Kip river the safety of the
Boer guns at IIaing's Mex will be seriously
imperiled. for there will be nothing to pre-
vent Lord Roberts from seizing the
Johannesburg-Iaing's Mex railroad. In
deed II already reported that the railroad
has been cut. and it is quite possible that
the first official news will record the occu-
patton of Heidelberg.
Lord Roberts may be forced to halt at
the Naal river to repair the bridge and get
his guns and transport across: but the
mounted men will not be delayed. 1t is
