tons The senate on Tuesday confirm
I'll the nomination of the entire cabinet.
During it's last week congress passed
many important bills, chief among
them being the army appropriation
bill. Appended to this bill as amend
ments were measures providing for the
establishment of civil rule in the Phil

tween this government and Cuba.
The Philippine amendment gives the
president a free hand in the islands,
with certain restrictions upon the dis

amendment declares that the United
States must be given the right to inter-
vene in Cuba to preserve order, that

Then the handsome City Troop of
Cleveland, in grenadier uniform, the
presidents personal escort, rode by,
their plumes rising and falling to the
movement Of their coal black chargers.
But their claims to admiration were
sighted in a large measure. The cram
ing eager crowds had ayes only for the
open barouche drawn by four horses in
which the president and Senator Han
ma, chairman of the committee Of ar
Tangements. sat. The explosions OF APP
plause which greeted the chief magis-
trate were redoubled as Vice President
Roosevelt, In another carriage drawn
by two horses, came into view. The
hero OF San Juan received, II anything.
a more fiattering ovation than the
president himself. Both acknowledged
the salutes Of the vast crowds that
cheered them by bowling right and left.
A detachment of the Twenty-third
Ohio, the presidents own regiment
during the rebellion, battered and
grizzled by time, trudging along on foot
in the wake of the carriages. testified
: to the loyalty Of the presidents old
comrades Of the civil war.
The military, as a whole. attracted
unbounded admiration. The regulars.
who in the old days before the Spanish
war would have received scant atten-
ton. got an ovation from one end OF
the line to the other. The crowds fairly
rose at the Jack tars rolling alcng with
their sword %bayonets like a thicket of
steel above them. Admiral Dewey,
Gen. Miles, Gen. Joe" Wheeler and
many other officers who came into
prominence during the Spanish val
were lionized.
The crowds went wild over the West
Point and Annapolis cadets, marching
with clockwork precision. end the
rough riders upon their bronehos. The
Porto Riean regiment, the Richmond
Greys, In Confederate grey, and the
college students from the principal uni
versities set the crowds off again and
again. The national guard Of the sew
eral states made a brillfsnt showing,
and many of the governors riding with
their stats were overwhelmed with en-
thusiasm. Darkness fell as the last of
the procession tramped by the review
ing stand.
The expected review by the president
of the veterans who formed his escort
to the Capitol was declared off. It was
contemplated that the veterans should
march through the court OF honor af-
ter the general parade was over. AZ
that hour. however, it was growing
dark and the ranks of the old soldiers
had thinned out somewhat because OF
the inclement weather. In view OF
these conditions Gen. Sick1es decided
to abandon the review.

ST. MARY'S ACADEMY,
Notrs Dame, Indiana,

We call the attention of our readers
to the advertisement of st. Mary's
Academy, which appears in another
column OF this paper. We do not need
to expatiate upon the scholastic advan-
tages of st. Mary's. for the catalogue
of the school shows the scope of work
included in its curriculum. which is
of the same high standard as that of
Vassar and Bryn Mawr, and is carried
out faithfully in the class rooms. We
simply emphasize the spirit of earnest
devotion which makes every teacher
of st. Mary's loyalty strive to develop
each young girl attendant there into
the truest. noblest. and most intelligent
womanhood. Every advantage of
equipment in the class rooms, labora-
tories and study rooms. every care in
the matter Of food and clothing. and
exceptional excellence of climatic con
ditions-all these features are found at
St. Mary's, in the perfection of develop
ment only to be obtained by the con-
secration of devoted lives to educa-
tional Christian work in n spot fa-
vored by the Lord.

Census Stntlstics.

The census bureau. in a bulletin on
the population by sex, general nativity
and color in 1900 in certain states,
gives the following summary:
Hawaii-AIales, 1Gj369, females, A.
632; native born, 63,22l; foreign born,
90.7SO; total white, G6,S9O; native
white. "a 4,141: foreign parents. 1929; !;
foreign white, 2,743; total colored, ST.
Ill.
1daho-Males, 93,3GI: females, 6S.-
400; native born. 137, ,16s: foreign born.

white, 1872 foreign parents. 42,751;
foreign white, 22,S9O; total colored, T.
277.
The foreign born element constitut-
ed very nearly three-fffths of the pop
ulation of Hawaii, and comprises
mainly Chinese and japanese. The
next largest proportion of foreign born
is in Illinois, one-fifth, and Idaho. lit
tie over one-seventh. The population
of Idaho is ninety-five per cent white.
The colOred element in Hawaii is 56.6
per cent. of the whole population.
In Idaho the foreign white persons
and the native white persons of for
eign parentage represent forty per
cent. of the entire population, and in
Hawaii eighteen to twenty per cent.

Carrier. to Sell Money Orders.

AS rapidly as possible the Postoffice
Department is equipping carriers on
rural free delivery routes with n new
form of money order books, whereby
carriers will be able to take money
from patrons, issue them receipt, pur-
chase money orders at the end of their
route. and either mail them direct for
purchasers, or turn them over next
day. This is not the complete money
order system that 1t is hoped may
eventually be adopted in the rural free
delivery delivery service, but is a first
step in that direction.
The books in question consist of an
order and two stubs, one recent
given by rural carriers upon taking
, money from patron, and another
which Is the receipt held by the carrier
when he turns the money over to the
postmaster himself retaining the third
portion Of the sheet or the order made
out by the patron.
This new service has already been In
operation for several weeks in eastern
states. and is now making Its way into
the West. Where 1t has been tried 1t
has proven most successful, and is
readily taken advantage Of by patrons
OF rural routes. So rapidly have they
taken hold, In fact, that ninety per
cent. OF the money heretofore sent
through the mails by registered mail is
row sent by money order. Besides be-
ing safe. the new system enables per-
sons to send any amount they desire,
Including odd change. which was not
convenient under the registry system.
The department believes that the in
novation Will be entirely satisfactory,
and q grelt convenience IN IN rmoru In
all communities having free delivery.

Cure for Mosquito Bites.

Professor DR. Noges. the director of
the national board of health at Bue-
nos Ayres. according to German pa
pers. has found II remedy for mosquito
bites. He states that he discovered 1t
by accident during his trip to Para
quay to study the pest. He had been
supplied with all sorts of remedies.
among them nnphthalene, an article of
no value whatever against the pest.
but on using 1t for mosquito bites he
found it of surprising effect. 1t neu-
tralizes the poison even when the spot
bitten is greatly intiamed. If fresh
bites are rubbed with naphthalene no
swelling follows. The professor con.
siders naphthalene almost specific
against mosquito poison.

II has been discovered that it would
be possible to use the same calendars
every twenty years-when the dates
of the months fall on the came days
of the week-thereby avoiding the ex-
pense of five almanacs for the present
century. But here is something even
better than that. Those persons who
might be able to get hold of calendars
for the twelfth century would find the
days and dates coincident with the
present century. Again. those with a
frugal mind who have preserved the
almanacs of the nineteenth century
will avoid an outlay for calendars of
the century commencing Jan. /. 220l,
as the dates for the hundred years fol-
lowing will be like those of the last
century.

The figures now secured show that
the chance which the British soldiers
had of being killed in South Africa
amounted to more than 2le times the
risk they would have incurred in bar
racks in England Thus stated, the
mortality seems small. but what must
be borne in mind is that during short
periods, say few hours at a time dur
ing the war, almost every man has
to run risks many hundreds times as
great as those of ordinary life. and
that half hours brush with the en-

Mrs. Louise Osborne Ferson of Chi
cago," says the Boston Transcript,
has invented an army ration. made of
pork and beans baked into a thin,
dark-colored biscuit, four inches long
and two wide. 1t is seasoned to taste,
and is said to be as palatable as it
is nourishing. Mrs. Ferson studies
languages at Vassar and took honors in
philosophy at Wellesley. She became
interested in food problems through
the work of her sister, DR.. Grace Os-
borne, who is professor of hygiene in
the Woman's Medical College of Chi
cago. The two women worked out to-
gether the relative values of different
kinds of nutritive substances, and the
biscuits are the result. Mrs. Ferson
went to Washington recently to con-
suit with the army department on a
proposition to supply the food to the
troops"

The Kate Shelley Bridge, which is
nearing completion in Iowa four miles
west of Boone, is one Of the largest in
the world. and the origin of it's name
is interesting. Twenty years ago, be-
tween Boone and Moingona. an engine
went through the bridge at the time Of
a raging flood. From her widowed
mothers cottage near by \
maiden of sixteen years saw
the engines headlight disappear
in the raging torrent. Lighting
a lantern she went away through the
storm to Moingona, told of the disas-
ter. and saved passenger train from
following the ill-fated engine to a
Watery grave. The state of Iowa gave
her a medal for her bravery, her name
has been celebrated in poetry and
prose. and now it has been decided to
name this new viaduct the Kate Shell
ley Bridge.
