A NEW move has been made by
the Philadelphia North American,
which is now published on Sun
days, as well as on week days. The
first Sunday number is a mammoth
affair, consisting of seventy-six
pages, and contains an immense
quantity of reading matter which
is Of very fair quality. The owner
of the North American is Thomas
b. Wanamaker, son of John
Wanamaker. AS the latter has been
popularity supposed to be the real
proprietor Of the concern, and as
he always publicly opposed the
publication of Sunday newspapers,
his son announces that his father
has nothing whatever to do with
the control nf the paper, of which
he, the son, owns the entire stock,
and that the responsibility for the
act of issuing the paper on Sunday
rests both morally and legally up-
on him, the son, although at the
same time expressing profound re-
greet for the difference of opinion
between his father and himself
The moral aspect of the publication
of Sunday newspapers has loag
been in dispute between strict Sab
batarians and the publishing world
the former claiming it a desecra.
ton of the day to Issue a paper on
Sunday, and the latter INSISTING
that as the work for the Sunday
morning paper is all done on Sat
nrday, the argument is not sound
one. La fact, if it be question of
working on the Sabbath, the Mon
day paper is the one to which such
objection might be made with more
reason, as the. work of publishing
the Monday edition is done chiefly
on Sunday night.

The New York MayoraIty Fight

1t Is possible that Tamany made
serious mistake In not n0mluat-
ing Mr. Coler as its candidate for
Mayor. His record as city comp
troller is clean aid unimpeachable
and would commend him to the
independent voters, while his 10y
atty to his party and his great pop
ulrity would have insured him the
full Democratic vote Ed NJ. Shep-
ard, the nominee, has clean and
reputable record and personally
would not be particularly object
ionable to the anti Tammany coll
tingent. In fact he has been one
of the most violent assallants Of
the Tammany society or rather OF
Its methods. He is not personally
so popular with the great Demo-
cratic electorate as some OtnefS
who might have been named and
the anti -Tammany people are now
exulting in what they claim to
regard as their excellent prospects
of success. Seth Low has good
following in the solid Republican
vote-if he gets it-and the dissid-
ent Democratic vote, independent
and unclassified vote and whatever
else can be picked up, but Tam
many is in a majority over all
when thoroughly united and New
York, as the Tammany platform
says, is Democratic city.-San

HAY-PAUNcEFoTE TREATY. !.
Expected That Britain Will Return
the Document with Amend
ments of Her own.

Washington, Jan. 21.-The eNpecta-
ton here is that the British govern
ment will return the amended Hay
Pauncefote treaty with amendments
OF its own, and it is not expected
that these British amendments will
be acceptable to the United States
senate. Whether or not this eNpecta-
ton is based on advices from Mr..
Choate or communications from Lord
Pauncefote, it is not possible to de-
termine. In either case the communi-
cations must necessarily have been
Informal in advance of the action of
the British government itself on the
treaty. The officials here say frankly
that they have no knowledge of the
character of these probable British
amendments, so it is likely that the
opinion that they will be unaccept-
able to the senate is based on nothing
more than general understanding
as to the feeling in the senate toward
the whole canal project on the one
side and on the other of the broad
purpose of the British government to
avoid complete abandonment of the
interests it has heretofore claimed
and asserted over isthmian transit.

CONGREGATIONAL Committee Anxious to
Complete Examination of Wit
nesses Mt West Point.

West Point, N. Y, Jan. 21.-The COM
mittee appointed by theIhouse of repre-
sentatives to investigate. the subject of
hazing at the military academy expects
to get through with the taking of testi-
mony by midnight, but it is more. than
likely that the sessions may be held
next Monday, as several witnesses have
yet to be examined. The congressman
are anxious to get away from West
Point for business reasons and they
will do their utmost to finish up sothat
they can return to Washington Sum
day.
The first witness examined Saturday
morning was Cadet Paul d. Bunker, of
Massachusetts, who is a member of the
present third class. Friday night some
of the ''plebes" told the committee
that Bunker had braced them and
given them tabasco sauce during the
encampment last summer. One OF
them, Cadet Dillon, said that he was
compelled by Bunker to swallow from a
New Ulm review., 1901-01-23

half to a teaspoonful of sauce, given
him in a camp spoon, which is about
the. size of dessert spoon.
Bunker acknowledged having braced
some of the ''plebes," but denied having
ever given more than Is drops of sauce
to anyone, and when Judge Smith con
fronted him with Dillon's testimony
the witness said he did not recollect
ever having given such large guam
tity to Dillon or any other plebe
Bunker. who said he weighed about
200 pounds and measured feet liz
inches, only remem bered having hazed
two men who were his equal in
physique. The other plebes whom he
hazed were small men. He had never
engaged in fights either is principal or
assistant. His hazing repertoire was
rather limited as he confined himself to
bracing. making men sing out their
wash lists to popular airs, ride broom
sticks. stand on their heads and charge
arrows with fixed bayonets.

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results
from mothers ignorance or more
frequently from mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer and young women are so taught
There is little truth and a great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to physician for examina-
tion; but no mother need hesitate to,
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is

An idea of the great increase of the
cost of diamonds impaired by the
labor of polishing and mounting, as
we'll AS by the profits of traders, may
be obtained by comparing their price
at the mines in South Africa with
the prices in the jewelry shops. A
diamond weighing one carat, mounted

more, but at Kimberley the average
value of diamonds is only about $6.25
