velt's message. He says: "A perusal
of Roosevelts utterance about the

reader that the president has heard

'He borrows the phraseology of the
the average man was never so well
off in this country as at the present
time. The inference is natural that
he does not consider the trust evil as
really serious. He nowhere expresses
as much solicitude for the rights of
the masses as he does for the interests
of the great combinations of capital.
"The fatal mistake made by Roose-
welt is that he fails to recognize the
fact that private monopoly is always
under every circumstance a menace
to the public. 1t is lamentable to learn
from the presidents message that
he has been constrained by the trust
magnates to withhold his positive and
emphatic condemnation of monopoly"
He accuses the president of lack of
candor in outlining the currency legis-
lation. He predicts that the Democrats
will have splendid opportunity for
manufacturing material for the next
campaign If congress carries out the
presidents recommendation on the
Philippine question.

doubt its authenticity:
On one of the first visits of the late
Queen Victoria and Prince Albert to
Deeside, a photographer from Aber-
deem was ordered to Balmoral to pho
tograph them. In nowise embarrassed
by the august pair, he arranged them
to his satisfaction, canted their heads
and plucked at their garments with a
free hand, and then retired behind his
black curtain to see if they were in
proper focus. Immediately after a
hand appeared waving, and, to their
immense amusement, the order came:
"a little less white petticoat, Mrs.
Albert, if you please!"

TRAGEDY OF A TOMCAT.

N. j., is bemoaning the loss of large
tomcat of which he was particularly
fond. At the same time a nearby farm:
er is Boosting of having the smartest
pair of Scotch collies in the world.
The sorrow of the one and the Joy of
the other are due to tragedy in which
the two dogs and the cat were the &C.
tors, says the New York Times.
Now, this particular cat was large
and strong, and was feared and hated
by the dogs in the neighborhood. From
boxes standing in front of the store
the cat would drop upon the back of
any dog that happened to pass. His
claws and teeth made those dogs wish
for another neighborhood, and they
rarely lost time in going where they
wished to be.
On an unfortunate day for Tom.
Miss Collie followed her master to
the store. Down upon her shoulders
the cat leaped. She fought game;y for
a few minutes, but finally ran away.

Miss Collie made for home. The
farmers wife says that she trotted up
to Mr.. Collie, who was basking in the
sun. The two dogs put their heads to-
gether and finally got up and trotted
down the road.
AS the farmer started to leave the
store he was surprised to see Miss Col
lie returning, accompanied by Mr.. Col
lie. When they got near the store Mr.
Collie stopped and Miss Collie trotted
deliberately beneath the box to which
the cat had returned. Quick as flash
the cat was on her back. At the same
time, Mr.. Collie came with rush, and
with leap of ten feet or more seized
the cat.
For few minutes there was a mix
up on the road that sent up cloud of
dust. Then suddenly it ended, and the
two dogs stood over a dead cat. This
time the farmer cbuckled and the gro

Despite Drayton's cable from Ma
Mia that the Identification of the re-

least, Mrs. Foster was convinced that
the murdered lad was her only boy,
and all because of that heartless
army girl who had bewitched him
and then brought his blood upon her
own head.

victim of that creatures hideous van

could do it at Manila, and, though un-

the convictions of others in author

to cables from the war department
and ordered their shipment to San
Francisco. They were out of sight
of all signals from Corregidor when
Martindale's cable came suggesting
search for Private Benton Willard.

more was ascertained regarding the
actual victim. Private Connolly, re-
covered from his fever. was forever
hunting up Farnham, the brakeman,
and devising schemes for the capture
of that blackguard Murray. Day and
night, he maintained that Murray
was the man who had accosted Clarke
and Hunter at the battery, that it
was probably he who, with his pals,
had waylaid and robbed the lone re-
cruit returning from his quest in
East Paco, that it was he who must

and we met again in Denver. Each

time said he, and SO we joined part

The rest was soon told. Sackett got
a job on young Fosters ranch and fell
into some further trouble. But when
the war came all of them were enlist
ed, Foster and Sackett in the regulars
and he in the First Colorado, but they
discharged him at Manila because he
had fits, and that gave him good deal
of money for few days, travel pay
home, and all that. Then who should
turn up but Sackett with money to
burn" and scheme to make more.
They hired room in Ermita, and
next thing he knew Sackett and some
sailor men held up and robbed a sol
der, and Sackett was in a tearing
| rage because no money belt was
found on him. They only got some
letters, that little photograph and
perhaps $40 MEX" The photograph
he recognized at once-his former
| captains daughter he begged
for it and kept it about him until one
evening he was taken with another
fit, and when he came to the picture
was gone.
That night he found Sackett nearly
crazy drunk at their lodgings in Err
mita. They had a Filipino boy to wait
on them then, and Sackett had told
the boy where he could find money and
jewelry while the family were at din
ner around at Col. Brent's. The boy
was willing enough; he was an expert.
But he came back scared through;
said that the soldiers were close after
him. He had some iewelry and pref
ty revolver. Sackett told him to keep
the jewelry, but took the watch and
pistol, and that night the sentries and
patrols were searching everywhere,
and Sackett and the sailors said the
must get away somehow. They drank
some more, and finally thought they
had good chance just after the pa.

to an officer on the Gale Real.

she could do so, such son would GER
