Appearances We're Deceptive.

Of these two the opinion in the
DOWnes case is considered the most
far-reaching, as it affects our future
relations, whereas the De Lima case
dealt with a transitional phase of our
inSular relations. The De Lima case
was the first to receive the attention
of the court, and as it appeared to be
quite sWeepingly opposed to the gov
ernments contentious, many persons
precipitately arrived at the conclusion
that the government had been WOrSted
all along the line. This view suffered
a decided change when the conclusion
was announced in the DOWnes case.
The court was very evenly divided on
both cases, but political lines were not
at all controlling.
Where the Government Lost.
The De Lima case involved the pow
er of the government to collect a duty
On goods imported into the United
State from Porto Rico after the rati-
ficatiOn of the treaty of Paris and be-
fore the passage of the Porto Rican
act. The court said the governments
contention in this case was substan-
TALLY a claim that Porto Rico is for
eIgn territory The entire case turned
upon that contention. The court held
that the position was not we'll taken;
that Porto Rico was not at the time
foreign territory; and that therefore
the duty which had been collected
must be returned.
And Where the Government Won.
The decision in the DoWnes case fol-
lowed the history of the dealings of
the United States with Porto Rico a
step farther. That case dealt with the
legality of the eXaction of duties on
goods imported from Porto Rico into
New York after the passage of the For
aker act, providing for duty upon
goods shipped from the United States
into Porto Rico, and also on those
shipped from Porto Rico to the United
States. In this case the court held
that such eXaction was legal and con-

the story of penny ride from West

ticket collector came around the bishop
found, to his astonishment that he
had not penny in his pocket, and his
wife, who was with him. was In the
same unhappy state Of pennileasness.
Dr. Carpenter made up his mind to
borrow the money when he altybted
at Charing Cross. but before he reach
ed his destination, workingman, with
bag of tools thrown over his shoul-

and said: Don't bother about that;

has been to send her out of town, and
the change was always beneficial. This

ily prevented the trip, and the fever
increased with such severity that the
doctor became seriously alarmed. One
day the patients temperature was ap-
normally high. and the doctor, to see
II the heat of the atmosphere could
partially explain 1t, took thermome-
ter from the wall to note the tempera-

slipped through his fingers and fell to
the floor, breaking the glass tube.

Keen ears in the direction of the bay
The heavy booming seemed to move
eastward, and finally the voice of the
great guns grew fainter and at last
died out. Even then we did not think
the Spanish fleet had gone out, and it
was not until noon that word came
from Gen. Ludlow. who was north of

that the Spanish ships apparently had
gone out of the harbor, for none was
to be seen.
At last We received definite news OF
the great victory and then the men in
the trenches gave voice to their en-

details. and it is interesting to recall
the fact that no one then had a whis-

None of us believed that the Span
