Napoleon's Talisnian.

Louis Napoleon, who believed him
self, even amid exile and poverty, des-
tined to that throne which the prestige
of his name and his cunning coup d'etat
enabled him to reach, was not without
his superstitions. In hfs will he says.
with regard to my son, let him keep
as a talisman the seal ! used to wear
attached to my watch"
This talisman had no power to turn
aside the fatal spears Of the Zulus. and
the young Napoleon met q sadder fate
than his fathers worst fears could
have imagined for him.

Mr.. Clements possible candidacy
is live topic still, and the mass
meetings and petitions asking him
to run have brought out something
Quite definite from the Rutland
man. Among the adherents OF the
machine and regularity there is a
pretty unanimous sentiment that he
wouldn't aid his cause by taking the
field now; at least this is what
they say, and they doubtless have
McCullough's majority in mind.
Mr.. Clement could make good
race. Though the referendum plank
in the state platform takes some of
his powder, he would still have an
issue in fight against the machine
as represented by the nominee OF
the convention. There isn't much
enthusiasm in a nomination won as
McCullough's is said to have been,
and il half the charges are true his
campaign ranks with the worst
Tammany can do. Here Mr.. Glenn
ent has case, and the people could
properly go IN for Il little house
cleaning. Nothing but machine
could hush up the disclosures, and
the existence of a ring and the need
of house cleaning is thus shown
up in very fierce light.

MARVELLOUS FEAT OF
CHILLING" BY THE So"

The greatest prairie land filling"
known to railroads in the West is under
way on the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy Railroad at a point known as
Sugar Creek" near Ottumwa, Iowa. A
valley seventyone feet deep, between the
crests of two hills 1900 feet apart, is
being filed up. The work will require
328, 200 cubic yards of grading and will
not be finished for year, although begun
in June last At the top of one of the
hills three steam shovels dump clay in
the cars, which a dummy engine pushes
out upon the high, portable iron bridge,
where they deposit their loads into the
valley. With one end supported upon the
mill and the other upon trestle work the
bridge is moved along as the work ad-
yances. When the grading is completed
it will be 275 feet wide at the base. To
provide for the spring flood waters which
rush along Sugar Greek" two thirty-fve-
foot arches have been constructed. One
hundred and fifty men were employed in
their construction. Besides the stone the
arch work contains 100000 bricks.

THE CUBAN REPUBLIC.
New Nation Likely to Be Born About
May of This Year.

May i OF This I ear
Although the Cuban republic appears
to be in sight, several formalities have
to be observed before its existence actu-
ally begins. The election held on the
last day Of 1901 chose several sorts of
officials-a House of Representatives, or
popular branch Of the new governments
Congress; electors Who will choose a
President and Vice-President Of the re-
public; electors who, acting in conjunc-
ton with the Provincial Councils, will
name four Senators in Congress from
each of the islands six provinces; and
also Governors and councils for each Of
the provinces. Thus the preliminary part
of the work Of creating the republics
machinery has been performed.
The next step in the work Of preparing
the way for the installation Of the new
government will be taken a few weeks
hence On Feb. 10, 1902, the senatorial
electors and the provincial councils will
choose the Senators. The presidential
electors will meet on Feb. is, and will,
on Feb. "a, the anniversary Of the day
on which the Cuban rebellion Of 1890
started, elect a President and a Vice
President Of the republic. The result of
the voting on Feb. "a will be forwarded
to the Central Board of Scrutiny, COM
posed Of Cubans entirely, and that body
will transmit it to the American military
Governor of the island, Gen. Wood. This
will be the final step in the preparation
of the republics governmental machin-
cry, but the time at which it is to go
into operation is still to be declared, and
this date cannot yet be announced def
nitely.
From present indications the United
States direct physical connection with
Cuba will end about four months hence.
After all the forms Of creating the gov
ernment's machinery have been certified
by the American authorities in the isl
and; Gen. Wood acting on the direction
of President Roosevelt and Secretary
Root, will officially announce the date for
the meeting of the Cuban Congress and
for the proclamation of the Cuban Pres
ident. Probably the date for the with
drawal Of the American troops from the
island will be announced by Gen. Wood
at the same time. The chances are that
the withdrawal will take place on the
same day as the one set for the actual
Inauguration of the government, or few
days later. The present probability is
that the United States troops will evac-
uate Cuba on or about May 1, 1902, and
that a new nation will be born in the
Gulf of Mexico.

FARM BECOMES COUNTY SEAT,
A. Remarkable Transformation to Oc-
cir in Nebraska.

A. Remarkable Transformation to Oc-
cur in Nebraska.
In its ruling that county officials Of
Knox County must move their Offices to
the farm of William Wishendoff, twelve
miles from the nearest town, the SUI
preme Court Of Nebraska has ended the
most remarkable county seat fight in the
entire West, a fight which has been per-
sistently waged for more than twenty
years and has cost the taxpayers $780,
900.
Accordingly on the date fixed by the
Supreme Court a remarkable exodus will
take place. Business men Of NIobrara,
where the county seat of Knox County
has been maintained since the beginning
Of the history of Nebraska, and of Verdi
girls and Creighton, twelve miles away
from Wishendoff's farm, and which last
named two towns will supply the largest
part Of the population Of the new county
seat, are already preparing for this
wholesale removal.
Many of the owners Of buildings will
follow the example of the three towns in
Charles Mix County, across the Missouri
In South Dakota, where horses were
hitched to the buildings and the entire
towns moved bodily from old to new
sites.
The new county seat Of Knox County
will be called Center. The change from
Niobrara was made because that place
was on the border of the county, and
the voters decided to locate the county
seat In the geographical center of the
county.

George Fl. Phillips began to attract at
tention ON the Chicago Board of Trade
in the summer and fall of 1900, when he
conducted q most successful corner in
November corn. His fame soon spread
to all parts and he obtained a great fol
lowing in the country. The following
April Mr.. Phillips started again to corner
the market, this time May corn being the
object of the campaign. In this he came
out badly, owing to blunders in his office
which cost $250,00O. Phillips was not
discouraged, however, and started in
afresh after the company had been dis
solved. He again built up a big trade,
and it is said was doing good business
until the trouble in rye came.

view of opening their lands to settlement
and treating the Indians as other clti-
zens. The Kaws have to their credit
1OO,137 acres of land, adjoining the Usage
nation, in Oklahoma, and also have
credit Of about 100000 in a trust fund
held in the United States Treasury.
There are about $50 members of the
tribe. The bill Of Mr.. Curtis provides
that the lands shall be divided into
homesteads of 16O acres each, and al
lotted to the members of the tribe, the
balance of the lands either to be appor-
toned among the members or sold at
public auction, and the proceeds placed
to the credit of the Indians. The bill
sets aside 100 acres of land for school
purposes, twenty acres for a town site,
twenty acres for cemetery and five
acres as a reservation on which will be
located the tents of the INDECENT members
Of the tribe.
The Kaws have been selected for the
purpose of testing the merit of the gov
eminent policy, on account of their ad-
vancement and industry. There are but
lightweight full-bloods in the tribe, and
almost without exception the members
of the tribe have shown thrift in the
management Of their affairs. Most Of
them are prosperous and are anxious to
have their tribal relations dissolved, in
order that they may secure full individual
title to their property and manage their
own business. Interior Department Off
Gals are deeply interested in the expert
ment, and believe that if it proves a sue
cess it will prove a step in the speedy
winding up Of the affairs of the majority
Of Indians now under the control and
special protection of the government.

sides, from strangers and customers, but

Italy is practically bankrupt and her
people are driven to the verge of desper-
