1t is no secret that Hill advised the or

takes deep interest in the organization
and will give 1t all the support he can.
1t is known to HIS friends that he has in
mind the possibility Of running for Presi-

Croker must be eliminated from the situa-

ARMY TO BE REDUCED.

During the past week the adj
ministration decided to reduce the
army in the Philippines to 10000
men. It is thought this number
will be sufficient for the present
needs of the service in the islands.
The war department expects to
have all the volunteers out of the
archipelago by the end of June,
after which the regulars, those who
went to Manila in 1898, will be
sent home. The exodus will con-
tinue until the force is reduced to
10000 men.

FRENCH GIANTS IN LUCK.

The city of Roen in France was
the recipient of a novel legacy last
week. The late Count St. Ouen
de Pierrecourt bequeathed to the
city furtune of 100000 francs,
100000, on the condition that
the town annually gives a marriage
portion of 100000 francs to a
couple of giants. The object Of
the count in making this strange
bequest is to regenerate the human
family. The competing giants are
to be examined by a committee of
physicians and the most healthy
couple will be chosen.

POliteneSS.

Politeness has been compared
to an air-cushion, which, although
there is apparently nothing in it,.
yet eases our jolts wonderfully
and an American writer speaks of.
it as the oil on the wheels Of
worldly progress. Even if there
is nothing more in politeness than
what is indicated by these homely
comparisons if it is simply what
Chesterfield calls it, "The art of
pleasing yet even then it is a
most desirable art.
But when we go below it's surface
and consider that it's foundations
are based upon the universal needs
of the human soul, we see that it..
is no longer the most insignificant
but the very finest Of all virtues.
If, as Emerson declares, "a sainted
soul is always elegant it is be-
cause true elegance is an essential
part of saintliness.
Courtesy is the legitimate off
spring Of Christian charity, and
the etiquette of politeness is only
the form which embodies the,
spirit of this Christian courtesy.
It is said that genuine courtesy
will express itself without etiquette
So will physical wants express
themselves by signs, without.
spoken language, yet, at the BEST,
but rudely and imperfectly-
Courtesy will express itself in a.
thousand ways and on a thousand
occasions not provided for by
etiquette; and it is fortunate for
the preservation of spontaneity
in our natures that this is So.
But when custom has provided a..
language embracing the most:
common forms in which courtesy.
has been found to embody ITSELF.
it is an insult to courtesy not to-
use the language in our inter-
course with those who through it.
endeavor to express their feelings.
of kindness towards us.
Habit, however, especially in
our younger years, will make the
common forms of etiquette So
natural that they will be observed
almost unconsciously. The per-
lection of good breeding is that
habit of politeness which, from
having become second nature, not
only has the appearance of spon-
tainety, but is in fact as truly
spontaneous as though it had
never been otherwise. An art
is perfect in proportion as it ap-
proaches the perfection of nature,
so is he the best bred in whom we
never notice either the lack or
the presence of politeness as such
in whom neither want nor
superabundance offends.

BUFFALO NOT FILLING UP RAPIDLY.
Visitors are not focking to the
Pan-American Exposition in great
numbers as yet, although it is
universally believed that the
venture will be success. At one
of the mammoth hotels, containing
nine acres of sleeping rooms, three
miles of hall and a dining room
which will seat 5000 persons, one
lone man had his meals served by
286 walters one day early in the
week. So far, none of the new
hotels have been we'll patronized.
Eastern dispatches intimate that
the majority of the strangers in
Buffalo at present are gentlemen
who attend the fair for the purpose
of relieving others of their worldly
goods. The police are sending
these persons out of the city by
the trainload.

HE PICKED UP RUBIES,

George P. Clark of the Thirty
third infantry returned to his home
in Cincinnati from the Philippines
a few days ago, b. inging with him
some large rubies of pure water
which he found on the island of
Luzon. Mr.. Clark and few other
men were sent upon a scouting
expedition and completely lost
their bearings. They wandered
about for several days searching
for a trail which would lead them
back to camp, and in the course of
their wanderings stumbled upon
the mouth of deserted mine.
Observing the rock about the en-
trance to be of a peculiar forma-
ton, Clark Clipped off a few
pieces and carried them away in his
pocket. He noticed that one piece
contained a number of dull red
spots. Upon arriving at San
Francisco, he happened to show
the specimen to a jeweler, who
assured him that the red spots
were rubies of exceptional value,
and that his abandoned mine is
probable worth a fortune. The
young man will return to the
island at the head Of mining
in the near future.

that it really didn't matter anyway.
