we further recommend that compre-
hensive scheme of police organization be
put in force as rapidly as possible; that 1t
be separate and distinct from the army
having for its head an officer of rank and
pay commensurate with the Importance of
the position, with sufficient number of as
sistants and subordinates to exercise thor
ough direction and control. This organiza-
ton should embrace every township in the
island and should be SO constituted that
the police of several contiguous townships
could be quickly modified. The chief Off
GERS Of this organization should be Ameri-
cans. but some of the subordinate officers
should be natives, with proper provision for
their advancement as a reward for loyal
and efficient services.
'The main duty Of the police would, of
course, be to preserve the peace and MAIN
tain order in their respective townships,
but occasion would no doubt frequently
arise when it would be necessary to utilize
the forces Of several townships against
large bands of ladrones. The police of
each township should be subject to the
call of the local authorities, but prompt
reports of their operations to the central
head and especially of any unusual oc-
currence, should be required. There should
also be some responsible subordinate in
charge of the police of each township not
only to secure discipline and efficiency IN
the force ITSELF but also as a check against
their improper use by the presidentes and

understand that power is not placed in his
hands for his own personal benefit. Under
the Spanish regime presidentes and other
officials of the municipalities were required
to serve without any pay from the govern

selves from the people. There is as yet
no public sntiment hostile to such courses
which would operate as deterrent, and 1t
is feared they might readily fall again into

Needed a Shave.

A man who has been on a lecture
tour through the South tells this story
on himself: He was late in arriving
in one Of the cities in which he was
booked, and had but half an hour to
reach the hall where he was to give
his entertainment. He needed a shave
almost as much as he did his dinner,
but he decided to cut out the latter.
The former he was obliged to have.
Going to his room, he rang for a bar
ber. A bright-looking boy came in
and announced that he was the bar
ber. Mr.. Bingham sat down on a
chair and told him to go ahead. IL
beg your pardon, sir, but would you

A machine which does the work OF

Chicago banks. 1t weighs, counts and

Morocco
MAidenS

In Morocco the period of girlhood
Is short. The marriageable age is 12
years and a father seldom keeps his
daughter after she has reached 10.
The age OF the bridegroom does not
matter, and a child of 12 frequently
receives a husband Of 60. When a
girl becomes engaged it is her parents
duty to fatten her. and she is put into
training for this.
Every morning she takes the soft
part of her wheaton bread and rolls
1t into long, round pieces about twice
the length of her little finger, and Of
the girth of her thumb. After each
full meal she eats three or four Of
these, gradually increasing the dose.
At first she is allowed to wash them
down with milk or green tea. Later
on liquids are forbidden. Most girls
manage in time to put away so OF 60
of these aids to obesity every day. By
the time the wedding day comes
around brides have wholly lost their
slimnesss and after a few years re-
semble huge sacks of down.
Weddings always take place In the
evening and the long procession is an
indispensable part Of the ceremony.
The woman is neatly enveloped in
gauze and muslin and packed into
trim little red box, just as if she were
an automatic doll or the newest thing
in hats so that she can no more be
seen than a diamond wrapped up in
wadding and shut in a basket. The
box is fastened on the back of a mule
or a horse and when these details are
satisfactorily settled the procession.
All her kith and kin, as well as the
relations and friends Of her future

on foot to the sounds Of weird music,

with reference to the preservation OF
fresh fruits. Pears and peaches packed
in the ordinary boxes for shipment

drocyanic gas. The fruits were then
taken out OF the boxes and separately
wrapped in tissue paper. Some OF
them were again treated with the gas
and the whole lot was placed in a dry
room at a temperature Of forty de
grees Fahrenheit, and kept there foI
seven weeks. While the fruits were
taken out they were in an excellent
state Of preservation, especially those

Goats in the
3. :. Far West

At the rate at which the Angora
goat is now securing a foothold in the
west and the southwest the time is not
far distant when the goat industry
will take precedence over the business
Of cattle and sheep culture Since
lS49 when the first Angora goats were
brought to this country by DR.. James
B. Davis, of South Carolina, who re-
ceived them as a present from the
Sultan Of Turkey, the goat has slowly
but surely gained a standing among
the industries Of the west, until there
are now many more than a million
goats in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas,
California, Idaho Utah and Oregon.
Stockmen are awakening to the
great possibilities in the Angora, and
this at a time when the profits of rails
ing sheep and cattle are on the de-
cline. Almost every region Of the west
possesses the peculiar requisites for at
tanning the best results in raising An
CORA goats, and experts declare that
the conditions in the mountainous re-
gions of Arizona are almost identical
with those of the province Of Angora,
Turkey. The summers are warm and
dry and the winters cold and wet, con-
diuons which are conducive to the
highest development of the goat in
flesh and fleece.
So great is the confidence in the flu
ture of the goat industry that large
amount of capital is being put into
goats by northern sheep growers. Sew

Fremskridtskvinde

The new woman in Denmark calls
herself fremskridtskvinde, or woman
OF progress, and If we are to believe a
writer in the Boston Transcript, who
seems to know about her, she main
tains her claim to the title only by
sacrificing her best womanly instincts.
She is, in other words, rather too ad-
vanced to be of any real benefit to So
ciety. We are informed that she ap-
parently despises the homely arts Of
her grandmother and by way of dem
onstrating her originality fills her
house with tobacco smoke and politics.
She is prone, says the writer to re-
gard the rearing Of a family as a rath-
er irksome and ungrateful task inn
posed upon her sex, and she is becom-
ing even more jealous of the seeming
freedom and independence Of man in
professional pursuits.-Chicago Inter

LIE PREsIpENT AeRoAp.
Che Idea That He Cannot Visit Foreign
Soil a Mere Superstition.

| the IDEA Ahat Ae tnnnot WISH EOreign
Soil Mere Superstition.
There is a popular superstition that
.he President of the United States is
inhibited from leaving this country
during his term of Office, but it is SUI
perstition only. The article of the
Constitution which relates to the Pres
ldent contains no provision of the sort,
and therefore the President is quite
free to do precisely as he chooses in
this matter.
! The reason why no President has
ever visited foreign countries until af.
ter his retirement has probably been
/ due to the fact that in the early years
Of the republic, before the invention
of the telegraph and before the laying
Of the Atlantic cable, and also before
the development of steamships of
great speed, absence from the country
would have meant so protracted sew
erance Of communication between the
| executive and the subordinate officers
| of the Government as to constitute
what would have been practically an
inability to discharge the powers and
duties" of his office. When it required
month to make the voyage to Europe
/ and when letters and orders could be
transmitted only by sailing packets,
or, afterward by steamship it would,
OF course, have been impossible for
the President to visit England with
out practically abdicating his office
and installing the Vice President in
his place. But now, when the time re-
quired to pass from New York to
Queenstown is but little more than
five days, and when Immediately upon
his landing he would be in telegraphic
communication every moment with
his Cabinet, there exists no satisfac.
tory reason why he should not feel
entirely free to perform a striking act
in international courtesy.
1t is not, indeed, true, that no Presi-
dent has ever gone beyond the boun-
daries of his country. President Ar
thur during his term Of Office, went to
Florida by sea, and although he did so
on a vessel Of the navy, and was there
fore technically still upon American
soil he was, as a matter of fact shut
off from communication with the ad.
ministrative departments for several
days; and President Cleveland also on
one occasion, while shooting in the
Adirondacks, crossed the Canadian
border, and for several hours was,
without knowing it, actually upon
British territory.
If, indeed, the President Of the Uni |
ted States were now to visit Egypt he

of the session of the Australian parlia-

fill $50 closely printed pages, and as
the Australians have not learned the

that every word in those $50 pages

7 once formed one of a detail that set
out to reach that mountain top. we
had no reason to make the trip other
than that it looked attractive and hard
to attain. 1t was half days trip up
the steep slopes, and when we reached
the top we found q small grove, with a
solitary grave in the shadow of the
trees. 1t was surrounded by little
line Of rocks, and there were quite
fresh pieces Of white cloth hung in
horizontal position above the mound
These were kept in place by tying them
to tree trunks near by. Natives had
seen Us laboring to our high position,
and had followed to see that we did
not desecrate the grave.
From these we learned that 1T was
the grave of the first Sultan of the
Sulus, and that the cloth had been re-
newed regularly since he had been laid
there, as preventive against evil spir-
its. We learned later that there Is
