EXPANSION IN CHJCAGO.

Chicago goes from glory to glory, and
she finds that each step costs much
money. After having expended $33,000,-
600 to dig her great drainage canal she
that a further estimated amount Of $780,
100000 will be needed to clean the river
channel in order to allow of q sufficient
flow of water through the drainage ca
nal But even with this expenditure
the Calumet river still will be uncared
for. Its flow of sewage into the lake
to pollute the drinking supply, the puri-
fication of which is the end sought, will
not be lessened, while with the steady
growth of population along the Calumet
this source of pollution will be constant
ly increasing. 1t is on that account
that it is thought certain that the COM
mission selected to take up plans for
the improvement of the Chicago river
will recommend that legislation be ask
ed to the end that the region lying be-
tween the drainage district and the In
diana State line be annexed. 1t is held
by all the members-and in this the
Sanitary Trustees are agreed-that the
entire proposition of disposing Of the
city's sewage, whether in the Chicago
river or the Calumet, must be solved as
whole.
Fifty millions or so is a large sum,
but it isn't too much to pay for good
drainage and good water. When Chi
cago gets both these and clean streets
too she will be quite city.

PORYUGAL PREPARING.

The peace conference at The Hague
has been Immediately followed by war
like days, and 1t is not surprising that
even Portugal feels obliged to have an
army reorganization. The effect Of this
reorganization will be that the little
kingdom occupying western portion
of the Peninsula will, although Spain
has population four times as great as
hers, possess an army approximately
equal to one-half of the Spanish forces
The new recruiting system will raise
the strength to twenty-seven regiments
of infantry, the same number of regi-
ments of reserves, twelve battalions of
chasseurs, eight regiments of cavalry
with reserve squadrons, four regiments
Of field artillery two horse batteries,
three mountain batteries, two regiments
of garrison artillery (heavy artillery
and fifteen companies of engineers.
Naturally Spain has an eye on this
scheme. The Heraldo of Madrid de-
clares that Spain should be alert be-
cause SO extensive a base of operations
as Portugal, situated about the mouths
of the principal Spanish rivers and pro-
vided with excellent ports in which an
invader would find all kinds of neces-
saries at hand and an auxiliary army
of 100000 men to aid him to carry out
his military and naval operations, can
not be contemplated with equanimity
Other papers, while expressing no par
ticular alarm, are greatly surprised that
Portugal should make such military
at time when Spain
neither has adopted nor can adopt any
policy Of expansion or aggression, and
when she must devote the whole Of her
attention to ''the curing Of the wounds
left by her recent misfortunes."

RISING.

The negroes as a whole in this coun-
try may not be getting along very well,
but some individuals are doing well for
themselves and their race Among
twelve enlisted men who have just fin
ished their examination at Fort Leav-
enworth for appointment as second lieu
tenant in the regular army is Benja-
min O. Davis, a negro of the Ninth
cavalry, one Of the two negro cavalry

cavalry tor nearly a year. OF class

different regiments who took the exam

third, with an average of 81 per cent.
Sergeant Davis will be the first negro
private soldier to rise from the ranks
to commission in the regular army.

FOUND NAIL IN TREE.

On Friday workmen felled a large
tree on the High school lot at the cor
ner Of Hopkins and Asylum streets.
On Monday it was sawed into lengths,
ard during the process the saw came in
contact with a large nail The tree
trunk was about two feet in dancer
and the nail was found near the center,
indicating that it was driven into the
tree when the latter was young. 1t is
thought that it must have been in the
timber for fifty years or more.
The nail is of the hand wrought varl-
ETY., about two inches long, three-cor-
nered, and is said to be similar to some
to be found at the old Newgate prison

In the end China will probably have
to pay much money to other countries,
but what those countries get will not
be as much as 1t may appear to be-
Some Of the countries have had large
losses In trade with China in addition
to the cost of military operations there
For instance, the United States. Our
Counsel Fowler, at Chefoo, reports that
although imports at that port of Ameri-
can drills, jeans, sheetings, flour and
kerosene had increased enormously
prior to the outbreaks, after June Is
imports ceased, and commercial trans
actions were practically at standstill.
For the three months ended September
80 last he reports the decrease in
American trade at Chefoo as follows:
Drills, 4S,096 pieces; jeans, 1850 pieces;
sheetings, 112,015 pieces; flour, 139,O50
taels; and kerosene, S52, 100 gallons. For
the three ports of Chefoo, Tientsin and
NeWchWang, Tor the same quarter, the
decrease was: Drills, S50533 pieces;
jeans, 1880 pieces; sheetings, 1890
pieces; flour, 139,O50 taels; and kero-
sene, 2,053,100 gallons. The loss to the
American cotton trade is estimated at
more than $4,000, 900.

When we played shiny. long ago,
Our clothing did NOT fire.. us.
We wore no coats Of sunset glow
Our mothers would not let us.
Oh, we Were cotish In our glee;
We loved to prance and whinny;
We asked no "nIblick" and no tee
When we were playing shiny.
oh, where are those companions now
The thin boy we called Patty;
The boy i'll clad, with grlmy brow;
The boy so neat and natty
The boy who was so very lat
His comrades named him skinny!
There is no friendship her like that
We knew while playing shiny.

And set the golf ball flying.

For those lost hours of shiny.

The Providence Journal has this to
say concerning its State: Rhode
Island is now the Mecca of divorce
seekers who flock here from Quoddy
Head to Puget Sound, perjure them
selves in the courts and obtain divorces
in swarms. This will continue unless
the General Assembly acts within the
next week, as every citizen who cares
for the good name of the State wishes
1t to do. The bill that extends the
term OF residence for applicants and
makes it impossible for divorces to be
granted on grounds not recognized in
states where applicants previously
lived should certainly be passed. The
elimination of non-support as ground
for divorce would be an improvement,
for collision is made easy by the pres
ent law. But the first two changes
should be made anyway and disagree
ment about the ACCESSIBILITY of doing
away with DEGREES for non-support
should not block reform that will save
this State much odium.

. The custom of boys wearing earrings
in China Is thus popularity explained by
the Chinese: The boy is, the greatest
blessing that Heaven can send. The
spirits like boy babies. 1t is natural
that they should, everybody likes them
Very often, if the boy babies are not
watched closely, the spirits, who are
constantly around, grab up the un-
watched boy babe and carry him off to
their home. Girl babies are not such
blessings and the spirits care nothing
for them. The earring is a feminine or
nament, and the spirits know that; so
the Chinese mothers have the ears Of
their boy babies pierced and put in huge
earrings. When the spirits are around
looking for boys they will see the ear
rings and be fooled into thinking the
boys are girls and will pass on and not
trouble them.

New York, July 1.-Rev. Dr. Minot J.
Savage made Vacation Religion" the
theme of his sermon at tn Churca Of
the Messiah last night. IL sail:
IL have not a word 70 saw against
Sunday anusements. There is no reason
whatever in the Bible or in ecclesiasti-
cal history or anywhere else for the eN-
istence of the puritanical or an ordinary
American Sunday.
1T is absurd and childish to think
that there is anybody un in heaven who
is going TO be angry with YOU for doing
on Sunday anything that it is rissht to
do on any other day in the week.
Set apart sunday morning for COM
munion With God. Then use the rest OF
the day for creation-Walking, sailing.
driving. playing golf or anything that
will make you better physically. Do moi
dissipate, however. for that is not recre-
ation.'
