are coming into the United States. It has been the rule to admit Porto Ricans without question. The early impression was that the immigration from Porto Rico would be very light, as the c!i mate and other conditions here are not altogether suited to the natives of that island. For this reason there has been no inspector at any of the Porto Rican ports. It seems, however, that the na- tives are coming here in considerable numbers, and Commissioner General Powderly has determined to see hat hereafter only those who are properly entitled to enter secure admission. An inspector is to be sent to San Juan for the purpose of issuing certificates to genuine Porto RicanS, and to keep q look out to see that South Americans and others do not come into the United States as natives of Porto Rico.
 This is a free country, but there is such thing as being too fres. We don't want to give the country away to anybody that asks for it.

GOOD JJORK,

Senor Sixto Lopez hasn't hitherto fig ured as the chief comedian of the Fili- pino aggregation and perhaps he does mt intend to now, but he is funny all the same. He has spent some good money in sending a telegram to Agui- naldo telling him to ask the United States to send him and Mabini to this country. Sixto's idea is that when Aguinaldo and Mabini get here they can tell the people the truth about the war and the attitude of the Filipinos toward United States sovereignty.
 We suppose that Sixto can't fairly be charged with being the advance agent of Aguinaldo and working to boom his lectures, but his performance is worthy very advanced advance agent. We don't know of anything that could make it more finished except perhaps a request that the United States gov ernment give Aguinaldo and Mabni guarantee.

sessed in common what was known as
 wheeled trap, capable of carrying some six or seven hundred pounds, and usu- ally laden with delicacies not down on the ration list As the BoerS were ex- amining their capture, which was some fifty or sixty wagons, they came upon this valuable prize. But upon hearing that it belonged to the officers and was their private possession General De Wet put guard over 1t, and not a thing was touched. That very day, as the officers were lunching on jam and pickles and pate de foie gras, they observed one or two men squatted about fire near by frying some bully beef in a skillet.
 It was General De Vets headquarters mess, and one of the Englishmen at once went over and asked the general If he would not come and lunch with them. At first he declined, but upon all the staff being included in the invita- ton he accepted and joined them.
 {. Strange to say, the conversation was not about war, but of farming and the possibilities of irrigation. Later, how ever he expressed some of his views to one of his prisoners. He said that he knew the Boers had no chance of being victorious, but he intended to do his best Ito make it the most expensive war England ever attempted" He has pret- ty well fulfilled his threat by this time.

sense and the gift of silence, which car- | ried them through safely, and it was a significant fact that the exhibitions of bad taste and boorishness and lack of consderati ton for others that now and then scandalized the posts were nearly
 all made by the fellows of supposed culture Then, too, we would occa-
 sionally encounter a rough diamond, 'whose comical breaks were really a
 source of popularity.
 "The quaintest character of that kind
 ever knew was Captain -. He
 was jovial Irish American who had
 enlisted from a brickyard in the civil
 war, came out brevetted q colonel and got a commission as lieutenant in the
 regular army. When first met him he
 was in command of company at a post in Kansas, and nobody was in
 greater demand socially His ludicroust
 manglings of the Kings English were
 the joke of the department, but he
 laughed as loud as anybody over them himself. and frankly admitted his short
 comings in early education. As mat
 ter of fact, he would have escaped the reputation of a male Burlington if he
 had only been, able to overcome his ,fondness for unusual words They in- -variably got hlm into trouble. I re- member on one occasion he asked our major. to whom he frequently applied for information, the meaning of fla grant Tt means-er-znowr to every body-generally known replied the major, at loss for a brlefer definition. Some weeks afterward the captain was chatting with the coloners wife, and happened to mention a new chaplain who had been assigned to the post. The lady expressed some curiosity about him, and said she had never heard of him before Why. madame, you sur prise me entirely.' exclaimed the cap tain; he's one of the most fragrant cler- gynlen in the service' The colonels wife ehrieked, and the poor chaplain is known to this day as the fragrant cier- gyman.
 At another time, the captain went to Chicago on furlough, and came back full of the marvels he had seen. Among other things, he had attended perfor- nance of 'Richelfeu' by Lawrence Bar rett, and declared 1t was the greatest piece of acting ever witnessed on the stage. One of the ladies asked him what passage he admired the most. Why, that little spache by the cardi- nall he replied, where he says: "In the bright Lexington of youth, there's no such wor-r-rd as fall" I presume it l

CHEERING AND INSTR UCTYYE

CHEERING AND INS7R UCTITE.
 It is not yet certain that the Constitu- tion will follow the flag in Porto Rico, but the flag is surely going to follow the flag there. It is announced that nearly two tons of United States flags have been contracted for in Chicago, with rush orders" so that they may be used on the Fourth of July on every schoolhouse in Porto Rico. The govern ment plans to have the flag as familiar sight in the towns and villages of the Each island prototype of the little red schoolhouse will have a complete outfit of the national flag. There will be flags for the pupils, a flag to drape above the teachers desk and a flag to futter over the schoolhouse yard. Teachers from Porto Rico who visited Washington and other eastern cities last fall were all advocates of the plan to make the flag familiar sight in the island. They asserted that the moral effect would be helpful and arouse patriotic enthusiasm in the minds of the children.
 The flag of the United States is a cheering and an instructive sight. It will do the Porto Ricans and the F'ili- pinos good.

Ills Letters.

Their glorious dream was at an end;
 They parted at the gate He might have pressed her to his heart, Twas now, alas, too late! His love was with her where she sat Alone that cheerless night, But In his breast was stubborn pride As, trudging to and fro, outside, He watched her glimmering light. An, she was fnirer than the rose
 And often had he pressed His lips to her glad lips and felt
 Her tuttering on his breast, And he had heard her sigh for him
 But that was past for aye A jest, tannting word or two, And love that had been sweet and true,
 Was lightly thrown away! At last, in bitterness, he turned
 And left her there alone, Still hoping. she might call him back To claim her as his own How excellent to hold her then,
 Close close to him and hear Her sob and sigh and, trembling. say So softly, In the sweet old way: Il loye-I love you, dear" But nay. Alas, she did not call!-- Thrice day had dawned and yet He waited to receive her word
 Of candor and regret; And then, In pride he wrote to her To bring her to her knees He scrubbed but line or two, Yet that was plenty, as he knew: Return my letters, please!' He waited proudly-ah, at last! A dainty letter came; Love famed the embers in his breast And set them all aflame "She yields!' he proudly cried, and then He sat with dropping head. Your letters cannot be returned,' She wrote, because always burned Them after they were read.
 ENVOY. Still, still her laugh Is sweet to hear, And still her face is fair; Her footsteps still are quick and light Still pride Is in her afr And yesterday he delved among Her choicest treasurcs-oh, His heart leaped when he chanced to see, Beribboned there, those letters she Had burned up long ago. -S. F. Riser in Chicago Record Herald.

4 PERSISYENT OUENTION.

The question, What shall we do with
 Aguinaldo? will perhaps temporarily
 obscure the Cuban question, but the
 Cuban question will be there when we
 have answered the Aguinaldo question. | Representative Stevens, of Minnesota
 who has just returned from visit to
 Cuba, has something interesting to say,
 He objects vigorously either to the an- | nexation of the island by the United l States or to the establishment of close commercial relations between this country and Cuba. In the first place, the Minnesota congressman believes that the annexation of the island and
 the admission of it's sugar to the United States free of duty would be the death-
 blow to the beet sugar industry of the
 North and West and the cane sugar industry of the South. The production
 of Cuban sugar this year will, he esti- mates, be a million tons, and in time
 he thinks the island will produce enough sugar to supply the entire de- mand in the United States. Cuban to- bacco, he suggests will also do serious injury to the American tobacco indus try if the fragrant weed of the Gem of the Antilles is admitted to our market free of duty. Not only will our domestic trade suffer from unrestricted Cuban competition, according to the congressman from Minnesota, but our foreign trade also. Germany, for in- stance, sells the United States an enor- nous quantity of sugar every year, but if Cuban sugar is sold in this market without paying duty German sugar will be driven out, and then Germany will retaliate by imposing heavy du- ties on Western four, meat and other products.
 We started in to protect Cuba. Must | we now protect ourselves against her? l

NEW TMMIGR PROBLEMS.
 The recent decision of Attorney Gen. eral Griggs that Chinese born in the Hawaiian Islands and Chinese who were naturalized citizens of the Repub- lie of Hawaii are entitled to admission to the United States without question is expected to add materially to the number of Chinese now in this coun- try. It is estimated that between 10,- 900 and 15,000 Chinese have been made eligible for entry here by reason of this decision. The Attorney General held that the territorial act by which Ha- waii was annexed to the United States extended the full privileges of citizen ship to all native and naturalized citi- zens of the Republic of Hawaii. The immigration officials are not inclined to facilitate the admission of these Chi nese, however, and propose to compel all those coming to our shores to pro- duce proof of their right to come in. They will be required to show that they are now American citizens by birth in Hawaii or by becoming natur- alized under the laws of the Hawaiian Republic.
 This isn't the only new Immigration problem we have. The immigration officials have lately discovered that large number of alleged Porto Ricans

There is hope for those who like lob sters. Canada, says the Lewiston (Maine) Evening Journal, "now matches from 7O,000,000 to S00OOO0O Holsters a year. This, however, is but little com pared with what Newfoundland has done. In no other country in the world is lobster matching conducted on such a large scale as in that colony, or on so economical a Elan. This is owing to the invaluable invention of floating in- cubators, which can be used in any suitable locality in the neighborhood of canning establishment. They were originated by MT. Neilsen, a Norwegian fish culturist, who took charge of these operations for the government of the island few years ago. By their em- ployment an average of 450, 000 900 lob sters a year have been matched and planted; so that in seven years the enormous number of 3,150,000 ,00O of lobster ova have been brought to life.

. Smallpox is holding its own in New ], York. One day last week there were three deaths and eighteen new cases and even worse reports have since been made. The following statement from pr. Dillingham; of the bureau of con- tagious diseases shows the situation as Nit is: I wish everybody would under stand that smallpox is not dying out. Then perhaps they would get vaccin- ated. Our physicians are averaging about 10000 vaccinations week now, but the number should be twice as large. There are thousands of persons in this city who have never been vac cinated. If they would see to it and have their children vaccinated, too, it would do much toward stamping out the disease It is not on the decrease by any means. This month will give us more cases than we have had in any month since the disease became epi- Sdemic in November.
