II wonder if street railways have any

of feeling that I wasn't particularly
strong in monetary way, looked into
my purse as 1 stood waiting for the

my direction for my fare. Just as he
got within a few feet of me, and a
curve in the line providenially favor

pennies flew out of my hand. I pre-

Quaint PRAYER of a Child.

4 little girl in a Pennsylvania town, in
saying her prayers the other night, was
told to pray for her father and mother,
who were both very i'll, and for one of the
servants, who had lost her husband. She
faithfully did as she was told and then,
impressed with the dreary condition of
things, added, on her own account: And
now, 0 God, take good care of yourself,
for if anything should happen to you we
would all go to pieces. Amen"

Secretary Gage has accepted the resig-
nation of Margaret Coleman, who has
been employed in the Treasury Depart
ment in the capacity of a laborer since
the close of the Civil War. To this wom-
an Secretary of State Seward probably
owed his life. When the plot to assas-
sinate President Lincoln and his cabinet
was being put into execution Payne, the
criminal who was designated to assassi-
nate Secretary Seward, visited his resi-
dence On Lafayette Square. Payne fore
ed his way into the presence of the Secre-
tary and Immediately began stabbing
him. Margaret Coleman, who was then
employed by Secretary Seward, went to
the rescue of the premier, and she was
badly wounded. Upon recovering she was
given an appointment in the Treasury,
where she has since worked until she re-
signed on account of old age and i'll
health.

From this time on the most rigid econ
omy will be practiced in the expenditures
of the army, and an effort will be made
to reduce the cost to the limit existing
during times of peace. Secretary Root
has issued an order to the department
commanders in the field, and all other
officers charged with the duty of making
or approving estimates or acquisitions for
the expenditure Of money, calling their
attention to the Importance of careful
scrutiny to avoid unnecessary expense.
The requirements of active military OPP
erations, the order says, always tend to-
ward habits of expense not justified in
times of peace. Within the gradual dis
appearance of these military necessities.
which must be met without regard to
cost, the army will be held responsible
by the people of the country for a reduc-
ton of expenses and a rigid economy.

The "Habit" of Fruit-Bearinc.

Fruit bearing in trees is merely
habit, for a young tree, taken in hand
at the commencement, need only be prun-
ed during the first three or four years,
after which it will continue to produce
fruit spurs of.itself. For it must be re-
membered that. fruit bearing is a habit
which may be encouraged in trees, and
when once they are we'll trained to do it
they will not vary, except in untoward
circumstances. Therefore, the aim of all
pruning, whether of root or branch, of
young trees or old, is to induce the fruit
bearing habit.-Proftable Farm and Gar

the delegates nor the Washington oH-
Gals will talk as to what has been ac-
complished in the consultations with the
President and the Secretary of War. II
is known that the delegates were highly
pleased with their reception, and that
the utmost good feeling prevailed be-
tween the commission and the representa-
tives of the United States government
during the deliberations. The commits
sion was not entrusted with plenary pow
er to approve or disapprove any scheme
of relationship between Cuba and the
United States. The delegates were sent
by the constitutional convention simply
as an investigating committee, to ascef-
tain from headquarters the adpclnlstra-
TONS policy toward Cuba and Its inter-
probation of the provisions of tie PIatt
amendment. Neither President Mchln-
ley nor the cabinet had any authority To
change any of the conditions laid down
in the Platt amendment as passed by
Congress. From the meager reports OF
the deliberations which have leaked out,
it appears that the Cuban delegates were
anxious to secure some pledge of reclp-
rocal trade relations between the United
States and Cuba, the Cubans being espe-
cially interested in secur lg a reduction
of the duties on American imports OF
sugar and tobacco. The interest display
ed in this topic may be taken as an in
dication of the willingness Of the Cuban
delegates to accept the terms of the Plat
amendment, if REINFORCED by assurances
of a business relationship which would
be to the advantage of Cuba. From the
administration standpoint, the important
matter in connection with the recent con
ference was to convince the Cuban repre-
sentatives of the governments friendl'
ness toward Cuba, and to emphasize the
fact that the conditions named in the
Plat amendment were insisted upon II
the interests of Cuba, without any dispo-
sition to interfere with the independence
of the island when it is ready for abso
lutte independence.

Venezuela has apologized for the indig-
mites visited upon Ignacio Baiz, the
American consul, has promised to refund
the money of which he was unlawfully
deprived, and has made an explanation OF
recent occurrences in Venezuela which IS
satisfactory to the United States govern
ment 1t will be recalled that BaiZ was
thrown into prison several times, and
sum of money was eXtorted from him by
the representatives of the Venezuelan
government. Minister Loomis attempted
to have the rights of Baiz restored to
him, as we'll as his money, and in his
effort to bring about these results the
friction between the two governments
resulted in a condition of affairs that was
entirely unsatisfactory to the United
States. Therefore Minister LOOMS was
recalled, as a rebuke to Venezuela, and
for the purpose of informing the State
Department of the exact situation in
Venezuela. The cOnciliatory attitude of
the Venezuelan government was not
brought about, however, until a sharp
note was delivered to the Venezuelan
government after the department here
was in possession of all the facts relat-
ing to the strained situation. The as
phalt controversy, which also contributed
materially to disturb the relation between
the two governments, has been removed
almost entirely from the sphere of diplo-
macy.
