As TO THE PHILIPPINES.

Il President Mckinley supposed |
thas he election would end opposi- |
ito, 0 his Philippine policy. he is
find out his mistake. Even in a |
Rel blican Congress, and among the !
Rel blican members. the question is
reg 'ded as still extremely debateable
and / is evident that the discussion
has only just begun. In a running
deb,;e in the House of Representa-
tive few days ago one of the most
vigorous and sensational speeches |
mad was that of Mr.. Mccall, al
Mas ,achusetts Republican,. in opposi-
tior TO President McKinley's policy.
Mr. Mccall had previously distin-
guisned himself by the vigor Of his
opp. sition to the Porto Rico tariff
bill he had assaulted the whole Philip
pine policy Of the adm .nistration, and
handled it without gloves The gov
crime nt, Mr.. Mccall said, should
have declared at the outset a policy
in tie Philippines similar to that
which we declared in Cuba. Our
systs III Of government was manifessly
unfit for a colonial policy. There
was no community OF interest be-
tween the people OF these islands and
the United States. No advocate OF
retaining the Philippines had been
DARN enough 10 maintain that they
should be part of our political sys-
TEN, In fact, the great argument IN
favor of the principle of the Porto
Rican tariff was that if We could not
apply that principle to Porto Rico we
could not retain the Philippines.
Upon what theory. he asked. are we
to remain in that country The mo-
tive that had been most widely put
forth was that it was for our advan-
tage, and especially our pecuuiary
advantage. IN conclusion Mr.. Nc
Call said:
1.-The time has come when we can
frankly declare our purposes. Let us
give those people those assurances
which our history inspires. Let us
tell them that we will aid them for
one year. or for five, if need be, in
setting up government Of their own
symbolized by their own flag, and we
will leave them all that the mos,
glorious in the meaning OF another
flag-liberty, independence and self
government.
This might be an extract from some
Democratic speakers utterance dur
ing the campaign, in opposition t.
: the policy and tendencies of imperial
ism, but election is past, and ".
shall hear what the administration
press and Spokesman have to say t.
such comments from one of their owr
men. So far from being settled, tn
Philippine question is likely to rend
the Republican party asunder before
they are done with it. Already come:
the announcement that the promise
made before election, to bring HON,
the soldiers in tie Philippines a
once, will not be kept; it is seid tha
they are likely to be reta lined there
until the last day Of their enlistment
Ali hope of securing reinlistment
has been practically abandoned. II
addition to all this, there is the prob
ability that the Supreme Court ma,
knock down President Mckinley
house of cards by decision that tn
constitution follows the fag-Al
bany Argus.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 1s, 1901.

The Schley naval court of inquiry made short work of Admiral Howison yesterday. In fifteen minutes after the attorneys of Admiral Schley enter ed their protest Howison was dropped and the court adjourned indefinitely. This looks like good-sized victory for Admiral Schley right at the start. It also shows that Admirals Dewey and Benham had the courage of their convictions, for on them rested the retention or the retiring of Admiral Howison from the court. The admirals acted so promptly that it can be taken for granted there will be no dilly daily ing or nonsense tolerated when the court sets down to business.

QUEER FORM OF HYsTERIA.
Remarkable Manifestations by wom- en in Turkish Town in
 Asia Minor

Dr. Dimopouios, a medical practi- honer of the town of Kutahia, in Asia Minor, sends to a Smyrna journal particulars of an. '.epidemic'' among women of that town, which has prob ably no parallel in modern expert ence, says correspondents of the London Pall Mall Gazette. About three years ago young women be- came subject to form of hiccough like the crow of a cock, which re- sisted treatment; soon after a second began to hiccoug'h like a cat moving, and in six months there were 60 women in the town affected with what may be described as animal hic- coughs, exceedingly varied. Praying, barking, and sounds like those made by the fox are included in the list. pr. Dimopoulos says that to be in a room among a number of these women was like an experience of the forest or menagerie. Some men are affected, but the victims are mostly women, which IS ineligible if the doctors theory is correct, that the disease, for which he vouches, is d form of initiative hysteria.

The unfaYorable news from the Mill burn house early this morning threw the whole country into a state of eX- citement again. People had just be- gun to think that the danger of the president dying was very remote, and they looked for his early return to the business of his exalted position. The physicians and nurses were so con- fident of his recovery that nearly all of them were at their places of resi- dence, and had to be hastily summon ed. It was sad surprise to every one, this latest news, andSit must have been doubly surprising to the faithful physicians, who have given such en- couraging reports for just one week. The calling together of the cabinet, after some of them had only just left Buffalo must have come as a surprise and given a shock to the men compos7 ing it. The news came with all the greater force to everybody, for the hopes of the people had been built up with so much encouraging news dur ing the week.

LIGHTNING BOASTS FOWL.
Bolt from the Heavens QufcRly Cooks a Hen While She Sits on
 Her Nest

The freaks of lightning that have been observed and recorded are almost beyond computation, but a recent one where setting hen was in fraction of a second thoroughly cooked is en- titled to a place in the catalogue of wonderful things done by the bolts, says the Chicago Chronicle.
 The farm of Cyrus Barnhart, near Greensburg, Pa, was chosen for the demonstration. Cyrus has tree and 8 hen. At the foot of the tree she made a nest and laid eggs in it. Then she set about hatching them.
 A thunderst torm came up. The tree was struck by lightning and demol- ished. The eggs were broken. The hens maternal designs were vetoed. The hen was cooked thoroughly, in- stantly.. One second she sat contern- plative on her dozen of eggs. The next, before the flash had died away, she was roast chicken Not feather. was disturbed, but the flesh was as.welf cooked as if it had passed an hour in a hot oven or kettle.
 Practical persons in the neighbor- hood sent this first example of light hing cookery to the Carnegie institute at Pittsburg

OBEYED HIS CHURCH
Utah Banker Gave Up Wealth to
 Serve Mormonism.
Heber J. Grant, Salt Lake MilIfon- aire, Sacrificed q Fortune to En- gage in Missionary Work
 in Japan.

Mormonism, sending as mission. ary to Japan SalV Lake millionaire banker stripped of his wealth and de- pendent upon that which shall fall from the hands of his converts, is one of the anomalies of missionary work in the world. Heber J. Grant, one of the 12 apostles of the Mormon church, power in former territorial politics, a former banker, worth $4,00o,000, paying tithes upon an in- come of $20o,000 a year, and other wise one of the pillars of Mormon ism, has sailed for the Flowery Kingdom with only his voice and his hands as spiritual and temporal cap ital.
 Yokohama is the destination of the apostle, whither he has gone on a two-years' assignment by the church powers Elders A. o. Taylor, H. s. Ensign, and l.. A. Kelsch accompanied the apostle, the four breaking away from their worldly interests in the state capital, as if indeed, they were no part of the estate of the Latter Day saint.
 This dispatching of the Mormon apostle-banker on this mission is il- lustration of the power of the church which years ago was driven from habitation in Illinois.
 When the admission of Utah as a state was under consideration and advisement and when the Mormon church found it expedient to treat with the United States authority, He- ber J. Grant was one of the elect of the church. He was high in church councils, prominent in the affairs of the territorial capital, a banker, cap itahst, and making money in half dozen ventures. He kept place and influence after the admission of the

THE WAITS REVENGE.
h Little Street Girls Way of Getting Even with Man Who vvou1dn't
 Buy Her Wares.

This amusing story is told by the president of New Bedford bank, writes the Chatterer, in Boston Her aid. One day not long ago ne and other officers and directors were en- gagged in a business meeting, held in the directors room of the bank, and s they believed themselves secure from intrusion they were much surprised to see a poor little waif eT ter the room some thing which any man of busi- ness affairs would not dare to do un- der such conditions. The little girl, shabbily clothed and pinched looking, had all unconsciously entered on for oidden ground, but this she didn't real tze, and at once went to the men seat ed about the big table, offering them small cakes of soap for sale
 The very first director whom she approached shook his head, impatient at the Interruption of business, and said, sharply: q never use it." The tiny peddler, unabashed, went from man to man-all the others, out of pity for her wan little figure, buying of her. As she started to leave the room, after thanking each purchaser, the girl hesitated a moment in front of the di- rector who never used soap, according to his own declaration, and, looking him over from head to foot, said, dis dalnfully: Well, yer look it!" and then she swept out like duchess.

A New York newspaper man who IS now travelling abroad says that the common people in England with few exceptions, seem to have gone over to the Tories, just as they did hundred years ago. It is by their help that the Tories are in the saddle, and that the party which did everything for them is almost a hopeless minority. But the Tories are repaying them in the old fashion. Never were the hid eous game laws of England more atrociously enforced than now. To throw a stone at pheasant now Is punished more severely than is wife beating to the verge of murder. And the house of lords has just decided that whoever is injured in business or purse by the act of a trades union, can sue it for damages, as though it were q chartered corporation. Frederick Har- rison declares that this is the end of English trades unionism, for every effective step they take can be blocked by suits for damages. And, as he says, the working people have only them selves to thank for it. They nave ex- alted into power the party which wor- ships possessions and despises per sons. "The rights of property is the Tory watchword, and it leaves no room for the rights of men.

THE MEN WHO SAVED M'KINLEY

It was fortunate for rthepresident and the country that he had more efficient protection at hand than the secret service men last Friday Their wits went wool gathering at the supremely critical moment. Those three privates of the coast guard artillery and their non commissioned officer had their wits about them, as Uncle Sam's regu- lars usually do in such emergencies They sprang upon Leon Czolgosz, downed him, prevented him from fir ing third shot. and in all probability saved William McKinley's life. That was their duty. and they performed it with a soldierlike promptness. Not heroes only regulars. It hasn't even occurred to them to exploit their exploit for their own glorification They wouldn't know how to set about it if they wanted to. Nobody is mak- ing any fuss over them. All the fuss has been made about the big negro. Parker whom sundry sensational newspaper correspondents have been writing up as the presidents savior. .A national subscription for Parker has been proposed. A job as janitor or door'seeper in one of the Washington departments, if he is competent to fill if. would be much nearer the correct thing in his case. But think of the debt the country owes to those silent, efficient arti1lerymen!-Hartford Cou- rant.

spR1NKLING cART WENT ON.

Who ever is responsible for the ac- tions of driver of a certain watering cart employed by the city, ought to be put in a glass case and exhibited in front of city hall as one of the many curiosities to be found there. This cer- tain, watering cart driver about half past ten o'clock last night wrapped in a rubber blanket to keep himself dry, was watering away for all he was worth in an evident desire to outstrip Dame Nature in the amount of water poured onto our streets. What rhe mans idea was in watering in the middle of a thunder storm is not known, but he undoubtedly put in an hour or more work which will have to be paid for without any benefit that would have been derived had the man done the same amount of work last summer when everything was dry and dusty.-New Haven Leader.

 Suffolk, Va, has a society for the suppression of spurious titles. There is a great field for its activity among the colonels, judges and captains of Dixie.
 Czolgosz says that he alone planned and executed the deed. It may be that this is true, but every indication points to a deliberate and carefully planned plot.
 Lombroso has written some more about the criminal ear. The trouble with the ear supposed to be peculiar to criminals is that it is not safe Ito speak of it in a large company for fear it might be found on several high " respectable persons present.
 The potato bug has appeared in Eng land. where it has heretofore been un- known. It is a pity to spoil the tradi- tfons of English country life; but prog ress is progress. When Whittier was a young man Maud Muller raked hay; she now takes a stick and tin pan and goes potato-bugging; and what in the world could poet do with that?
 They are going to have a herald's college in Albany. modelled closely after the famous English institution. This is all very well. but when some of the exclusive people of this country come to look up their pedigrees they will be more than satisfied with this end of them than with the other. There are some institutions which are not half so badly wanted as the people think.

territory to statehood, and he was making money still when he was chosen to spread the doctrines of Joseph Smith to Asia. He was asked how long it would require for him to drop worldly affairs for this mis- sion of the elect. His reply was ''eight months" and he has fulfilled the promise.
 Grants first act was to resign from his official position in the Deseret bank. No surprise was expressed at his willingness to lay down the office. It was a matter of course.
 The Chicago Tribune says that as a capitalist, sharing in many legitimate ventures in the great west, he held thousands of dollars in promiss ory notes, drawn by western men. Grant went through these papers, classi- fled them, stamped "Paid" across their faces, and mailed them to the makers, giving clear receipts for all moneys due him on contracts. Friends say these notes footed into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, but the man parted with them with out murmur. He gave up his splen- did home in Salt Lake City, leaving his growing family to the care of the church body.
 As indicating the wealth of the man, just before he left Salt Lake City he paid his tithes for six months, based upon his income, and the check was for $9.600.
 From this state of afiiuence Grant has. gone, with only bare travelling expenses, to a strange land, in which he will preach new religion. He has never been a public speaker, and he has a natural diffidence, but in behalf of his. religion he hopes to overcome difficulties.
 Heber J. Grant is a native of Utah, 45 years old. He is of commanding. figure and would pass better as shrewd business man than as mis- sionary. His influence in the Nor mon church could not be easily meas ured, yet heh as been called upon to serve it, not only without pay, but at the cost of a fortune. That he will be successful In the cause none of the faithful in Utah doubts for mo- ment.
