When Mr. Hull's name was reached in

HUMOR OF THE HOUR
They Compromiaed.

n very, very fat man was he, and
when he entered the Chestnut Hill ac-
commodation Sunday night he looked
around for whole seat to himself
The car was nearly filed, and the best
he could do was to share a seat with
another Rassenger. A hasty inventory
decided him in favor of a very thin
young woman, and even then it was
a rather tight squeeze. The young
woman in trying to make room for
him dropped her handkerchief, which
landed on the floor directly between
the mans feet.
He was man of such Falstaffian
girth as to be totally oblivious of any
thing beyond the range of his vision,
and he could scarcely see over his own
chin. The young woman was wedged
in so tightly that she could hardly
move.
Pardon me-" she said 81 have
dropped my handkerchief"
''Where is it?' asked the fat man.
"On the floor, between your feet"
answered the thin young woman.
The fat man made an effort to look
in the direction indicated, but although
he grew very red in the face from the
effort he couldn't see beyond his waist
coat buttons. Finally he said:
81 get off at Tioga. DO you go far
ther than that?"
Eyes. / go to Wayne junction." she
said. 81 guess can get along without
it for awhile"
''Thank you" said the fat man, great
ly relieved.
The young woman recovered her
property at Tioga, where the fat man
eXtricated himself from the seat.-Phil-
adelphia Record.

Belgium, which was one of the first
European states to provide for govern
ment intervention in the interest of la
Dor, has now before its chamber a new
bill which makes a long step in ad-
vance. The bill is expected to become
a law without modification. AS the
law now stands a workman, in case of
bodily injury, can only claim compen-
sation If he can show that the injury
was due to negligence on the part of
his employer. According to the new
measure, an employee who receives an
injury which incapacitates him for
more than fortnight shall be paid by
the employer even should the accident
be traced to the fault of the claimant.
The amount of indemnity Is fixed at
half the sufferers average earnings in
case of total disability, or, in case of
partial incapacity, to half the differ
ence in his wage producing power for
which the accident is responsible.
The bill in dealing with the liability
of the employer gives the latter the op-
ton of insuring himself either in the
National Caisse d'Epargne or in a pri-
vate company approved by the state,
and the contracting society is bound to
take over all responsibility on the score
of accidents, in respect of which the
employers liability henceforth ceases
or he may decline to insure, and in this
case the workmans claim for indemni-
ty becomes a first charge on the estate
after the payment of ordinary wages
and he is further obliged to capitalize
certain sums for future compensation
and pay the amount into state bank
or insurance company approved by the
state.

For Mosquito Bites, Naphthnlene.

The United States consul general at
Frankfort, Mr.. Guenther, writes to the
state department that DR.. Voges, di-
rector of the national board of health
of Argentina, has discovered an alleg-
ed sure cure for mosquito bites. 1t is
none other than the familiar "naphtha-
lene." 1t neutralizes the poison, he
says, even when the spot bitten is
greatly inflamed and If fresh bites are
rubbed with it no swelling follows.
DR.. Voges is trained man of sci
ence and is therefore not likely to
make an exaggerated statement. 1t
may be that naphthalene will do all
that he claims for it when used on the
bite of the Argentina mosquito, but
would avail nothing against the Jersey
or even the common American variety.
But the remedy is well worth trial,
us mosquito bites only too often trans
form the beauty and repose of seaside
or country vacation into an itching fe-
yer of wretchedness. New York

Only n Mechanic

A machinist out of work committed
suicide in San Francisco the other day
and bequeathed his body to any med
ical institution that would give his
wife and children food for a month.
Discouragement followed in the foot
steps of the poor mechanics inability
to find employment. And death was
the only method he had of changing a
mean condition into one that, while not
grand, perhaps can at least be tolerat-
ed, though he may be unconscious Of
the liberation.

BREAD AND AMUSEMENT,
How the Old Roman Cry Holds True
In Later Times.

How the Old Roman Cry Holds True
In Later Times.
Bread and circuses! A learned and
orthodox theological writer, comment
Ing on this demand of the Roman pop-
ulace, remarks that such is the cry, not
of the pagan, hut of the human heart
Another, rather of different sort, but
much better known, especially to those
whose have Just learned to read print
without much trouble, expresses the
same idea in describing an old woman,
Who-what do you think
Lived upon nothing but victuals and drinkP
Nletuals and drink were the chief Of her diet,
And yet the old woman could never be quiet
Certainly not! How can 1t be expect
ed of man or woman to be content with
daily bread alone as is the machine
with its daily olling? Even when by
bread we mean all that was found
In the fieshpots of Egypt, man needs
something more. The mind must be fed.
Twenty centuries ago Rome's wisest
rulers recognized this fact-recogniZed
that man is not machine-and the
lawmakers of today are slowly learn
ing that man, even though with "the
emptiness of ages in his face" cannot
be transformed into machine any
more than he can be supplanted by
one. Labor and food and rest were not
enough for him even when his meat
was the flesh of the cave bear. Then
war was his pastime. In semicivilZed
Rome when he shouted for circenses
he meant no less than n mimicry of
war, and SO to furnish him with recrea-
tion the human prisoner and the wild
beast fought to the death in the arena,
While his animal spirit, unburdened
with toll, made holiday in that pande-
monium.
Other times, other manners" The
shedding of blood is no longer regarded
as a recreation, but as an unpleasant
duty OF somewhat doubtful necessity.
Men look elsewhere for their amuse-
ments, and the word circus suggests
only daring equestrian feats, venerable
jokes and rubicund lemonade. But still
the cry is heard "Panem ct circenses,"
though worded differently when men
demand the eight hour day.
AS bread means much more now
than 1t did when the Roman artisan
lent his lungs to the clamor for panem,
so circenses may be translated to stand
for all of these pastimes in which man
may find that diversion so necessary to
his well being.
Why should he to whom life means
Dut n continual grind bptwppn tha nm
per and neither millstones, poverty and
toll be denied the respite and recrea-
tion which the eight hour day would
open up to him?
While the eight hour day Is recogniz-
ed very generally as being capable of
bringing recreation to the workers, few
see that In it is to be found one of the

THE HURRICANE IN GUAM.
Further Details of the Havoc Created

Assistant Secretary of the Navy Hackett
Is in receipt Of letter from the governor
of Guam bearing date December II, read
ing as follows:
1.-THE Island Of Guam is doing as we'll as
can be expected. A considerable number
of the timber and nipa houses have been
rebuilt. and the greater part of the popula-
ton is now under cover with fair degree
of comfort. The reconstruction Of the ma
sonry houses is progressing. and tile and
iron roofs are being repaired and replaced.
There have been issued so far to the needy
about 100 tons Of provisions, all of which
has been provided by the island treasury.
The immediate necessity Of rebuilding
houses has diverted for the present a large
amount of labor which could otherwise
have been employed In the fields and
ranches.
lit is pleasant to chronicle that there has
not been case of typhoid on the island
this autumn"
A report has also been received from Rear
Admiral Kempf Of the Asiatic station. who
was sent from Manila to Guam to investi-
gate the effects of the disastrous hurricane

sions Of congress. beginning In April and

Seniors de Quesada, Tamayo, Gomez,
Viluendas and Silva were appointed a COM
mittee to draw up proposition defining
the relations to exist between Cuba and
the United States.
Gen. Rivera, in letter to the press, OBJ
jects to the convention making any at
lations. He says the matter should be de-
cided by the republic after the constitu-
ton has been adopted. IF the United
States are allowed coaling stations in Cuba
and permitted to draw up the program
of our foreign relations" he declares,
there will be no features of independence
left. Such an arrangement would not be
living up to the resolution of Congress-"
On the other hand, a majority of the
delegates are in favor of touching the ques-
ton now, and probably meeting will be
arranged between Governor General Wood
and the committee to consider some pro-
United States government. The commit
tee is expected to report to the convention
next Monday.
Additional local interest has been given
to the post Office fraud cases by the sum-
moning of Gen. Maxine Gomez as a wit
ness. 1t seems that one of the clerks in
the auditors department told Gen. Gomez
last March that there were irregularities
in the matter of allowing duplicate vouch-
ers The friends of General Gomez assert
that he explained the condition of things
to the military authorities, and they con-
tend that he deserves the credit attaching
to the exposure of the frauds. This is cited
as a strong argument in favor of his presi-
Dental candidacy.
