When newspaper man accepts OF

ment and is given every chance to
Judge Russian life and character. and

Russians and their form of govern
ment he is not likely to retain the

those he has wronged in particular.
The Russian government claims that
George Kennan, who has Just been ex-
PEELED from Russian territory, has
basely betrayed the condolences here
tofore reposed in him because he was
an American, by publishing falsehoods
about Russia's penal system-false-
hoods that have been repeatedly dis
proved by reputable American writer's

1t has been decided by high medical
authority that there is danger in wear
ing some of the beautiful tinted silk
stockings one sees in the shop win
dows, and this is the reason:
In producing certain delicate colors
in silk chloride of tin is used as a
mordaunt, and it is said that unless
great care is taken a large proportion
of it remains in the completed fab
ric. In the case of stockings or any
garment next the skin the perspiration
may dissolve the tin and it is then
absorbed by the skin. case is re-
ported from Vienna of a woman who
suffered from attacks of paralysis in
the lower eXtremities, with numbness,
sense of coldness, and peculiar
jerkiness of the legs in walking. She
noticed that whenever these symptoms
were the worst her feet were colored
yellow, and 1t WAS found that this
staining was caused by light yellow
silk stockings which she wore. They
were analyzed and considerable guam
titles of tin found.

tUorsbfps on the Lakes.

By the Rush-Bagot treaty, or
agreement" of 1917, neither Great
Britain nor the United States can
maintain on the great lakes more
than four small armed vessels, includ-
ing one on Lake Ontario and one on
Lake Champlain. No such vessel may
exceed 100 tons burden, nor may its
armament exceed one eighteen-pound
cannon. And no other vessels OF
war shall be there built or armed"
1t is stipulated that either party
may terminate this agreement by CIV
ing six months notice, and there Is a
demand in certain quarters that our
government give this notice and re-
sumo the right to build war vessels
on the lakes without restrictions OF
any kind.

ExiIed LodybuSs.

All bugland is up in arms over the
announcement that 10000 ladybugs are
to be captured in the Berkshire hills,
placed in cases, and given first-class
passage to Cape Colony. where they
will do patrol duty in driving out some
other bugs and insects which are not
so desirable. William Beutenmuller
of the Museum of Natural History de-
clared that 1t was n shame to take the
ladybugs away, because we cannot
spare 10000 of them. Besides, he
thinks the trip will prove too long for
them, and that before they arrive
there the greater part will have died.
The Beers have great faith in the lady
bugs. and think II they once get start
ed there they will end the Boer war,
oust Cecil Rhodes, and probably deter
mine who struck Billy Patterson. Mr..
Beutenmuller says the United States
borrowed n bunch of them from Aus
tralia n few years ago, which were
turned loose in California, and were
largely responsible for the develop
ment of that glorious state.-Chicago

Che Colombo Affair.

That the German government will
in any way resent the arrest Of Abel
Murillo on board the German steamer
extremely improbable. The Colom-
bians may have erred in refusing the
Allegheny clearance merely because
her captain refused voluntarily to de-
liver Murillo to them. But their right
to remove Murillo from the ship is un-
questionable. The German consul's
reported protest against his removal
had no legal basis. Murillo's theat-
rical performance in wrapping the
German flag about his body in no way
altered the situation
The Allegheny was in a Colombian
port and while there was subject to
that country's laws. A merchant ves-
sci 80 situated cannot afford refuge
to persons of her own nationality,
much less to subjects of the country in
whose waters she Is. Great Britain
has sometimes attempted to establish
the principle that British ships are
British territory wherever they are.
but the United States settled that
point with her in the war of 1872. The
United States has always maintained
the right to do precisely what the Co.
lombians did. American police have
often searched English and other for
eign ships in our ports and arrested
persons thereon, and have always been
sustained by Washington.
The uproar about Murillo's arrest

One of these, and apparently the wri-
ter Of the statement they gave to the
press is an Englishman. His animus is
disclosed by the last sentence of the
statement, declaring it safer to take
steamship covered by the ever-re-
spected union jack" Anxiety to make
point against Germany and in favor
Of England appears to have inspired
this Briton's effort to convince the
public that the German flag was Gin
suited" by Murillo's arrest
The Murillo incident would probably
have attracted ne special attention
were not the impression somewhat
general that Germany greatly desires
to obtain some political foothold in
South America, and hence is likely to
seize upon almost any small pretext to
make such an attempt. Whatever may
| be the German governments desires in
that direction is not material. The
Monroe doctrine is a barrier to any
such aims, and both the interests and
the safety Of the United States demand
that the Monroe doctrine be strictly
enforced. 1t will be enforced, against
Germany or any other power attempt
ing to violate it.

William H. Hunt, who will succeed

He was born in New Orleans forty

Tho Pansy Family.

There is funny old story about the
pansy which many children know, but
many. again, do not. The pansy has
Ave petals and Ave sepals. In all pan
sizes two of the petals are of plain col
or and three are gay with stripes and
spots of bright color. The two plain
petals have but one sepal between
them, while the two smallest OF the gay
petals have a sepal each and the one
largo petal has two sepals.
AS the story goes, the pansy repre-
sents a family-a mother, two daught-
ers and two step daughters. The
mother Is very cross and cruel to her
daughters. obliging them both to
sit on one chair and wear homely
dresses. while her daughters have a
chair each and gay dresses, and she
herself has two chairs and a very gay
dress indeed.
But why doesn't the father object to
such treatment of his daughters? The
question is, Can you find the father

people who are suffering from catarrh

GUS time, and enduring needless suffer-

have multiplied so rapidly that they
are becoming as numerous as the leaves

This is due to the fact that the cause OF
dyspepsia is not recognized as catarrh.

Oil in huerfanO Valley.
lConcluded from pare twoI

which is SOME twelve or fifteen
miles above the oil basin, that ma
ture is still in chaotic condition
and that changes are constantly
taking place. Another evidence of
the prevalence of great heat in the
earth's stata here is found in the
fact that there is, near the foot of
the range, a bed. or deposit. of
natural lime of the finest quality.
burned and ready for use. When
a quantity is taken out of the vein
it may be Stacked at once the same
as the best prepared and burned
lime.
Taking all of these matters into
consideration, there is plenty of
evidence for those who support the
mineral theory of the formation of
oil, but the parties who are going
to operate in the valley care little
for the theories as to how the oil
was formed They say that they
have found, in the center of the
valley, the formation lying hori-
zontally and undisturbed by the
surrounding forces of nature, and
that the conditions are exactly
right for an oil field where the true
oil sand may be penetrated with
the drill. The valley is about for
ty miles long by fifteen wide, but
it is thought that the oil basin on
ly covers tract of land eight by
fifteen miles. The place VIII ere
the first operations will occur is
about twelve miles west of the
Rathvon company's derrick. With
the large amount of development
that will be done in the Huerfano
valley this summer, there is little
doubt but that the railroad. now
nearly completed to Westcliffe,
will be extended on into the val
ley and connect with the line at
Walsenburg. The route over
which the road would go is very
easy one: scarcely bridge would
have to be built the entire distance.
and the land is fine, rolling plain,
something which is hard to find
inside the mountain ranges.
The oil company which has Sc
cured the best of the oil lands in
the valley will, in few days, be
formally organized and take steps
to actively prosecute development
work. The oil excitement has
hardly reached the valley as yet,
as the people there have known of
the oil conditions so long that they
seemed to have looked on the dor
mant field as matter of course.
and now that it has suddenly
sprung into lire and activity, they
are hardly prepared for it. 1t is
thought that there will be great
rush to secure lands in the valley.
now that something of the true
condition of the country and its
promises of wealth have become
known The indications for secur-
ing gushing oil wells, and the ex
ceptionally high grade of the oil,
give every incentive fo- the most
energetic development of the field.
