coLoMBlANs ARE ANGRY.
Actions of U. S. Naval Officials May
Delay Canal Treaty.


Washington, Oct. 2S.-One obsta-
Gle, which it is believed will inter.
fere somewhat with the immediate
resumption Of negotiations regard
ing the Panama canal / -aty with
Colombia, is the feeling aroused b.
the actions Of the American naval
officers during the revolutionary
movements there. These are declar.
ed to have been bitterly resented in
Bogota, where it was felt that Amer.
can officers had exceeded their auth.
ority in interfering with the transpor-
tation Of Colombian soldiers across
the Isthmian railroad, a right the
Colombian authorities have asserted
is guaranteed them by treaty.
The controversy growing out of the
attitude Of these officers was taken
up by the Colombian state department
with United States Minister Hart, at
Bogota, and so far as known has not
yet been definitely settled. The ques-
ton at issue touches the question CT
sovereignty and has an important
bearing on the pending subject
The Colombian legation of1cilss de-
cline to discuss the latest response
made by Colombia. but the opinion
prevails that included within its
scope, are some representations re
specting or growing out Of the recent
events on the isthmus.

COLOMBIA REf LIES.
Said to Want More Money For
Canal, Than United States
Proposed.
DESIRES $500, 900 YEAR RENT.
Our Proposition Was For No Rent
For II Years-Declares She Is I'm
able to ALLEVIATE Territory, but Is
Willing to Give Perpetual Lease.

washington, Oct. 28-The long
expected response of the Colombian
government to the proposition made
by the state department for the ne
gotiation Of a canal treaty On the
lines Of the Spooner act was present
ed to the state department YESTERDAY
by Mr.. Herran, secretary Of the Co
lombian legation.
1t is difficult to learn the nature of
this communication.
The Colombian government is dis
satisfied with the amount Of the pay
ment to be made by the United States
under the terms of the protocol
which it is proposed to use as the
basis for the treaty. This sum Is
100000 Colombia wants at least
s10,0O00000. Moreover, the original
proposal looked to a wait for II years
before beginning the payment Of an
nual rental, the amount of which was
to be then fixed by mutual agreement.
Colombia now asks the UniIeC States
to agree at once On lump yearly
payment Of 100000.
The Colombian government clings
to its contention that it has not con
stitutional authority to ALLEVIATE any
Colombian territory, and reiterates
that the best it can do to meet the
language of the Spooner act, which
looks to perpetual control by the
United States over the canal strip. i
to make a 100-year lease. with a dis
tinct stipulation that the same shall
be renewable By the United States
at the expiration Of the first century.

| twenty three over the previous year
 This steady increase in the number ot inmates in institutions that were de- l signed to be only temporary should en-
 list the efforts of all concerned to cor
 rect the tendency. The limit of age un- 1 til which boys may be supported by the
 county homes was reduced by the last l legislature from eighteen to sixteen | years.
 A large number of towns were visited l during the year by the board to exam inc the almshouse or other provision made for the town poor, Common de- fects found are lack of classification of the inmates, want of sufficient water supply and bathing facilities, and the absence of regular employment for the able bodied. It is recommended that groups of adjoining towns unite in es- tablishing and maintaining district almshouses on the cottage plan, where the respectable but unfortunate poor may be separated from the degraded and deranged, and where aged and n- valid persons may be given especial care befitting their needs. The present practice of boarding town poor at the almshouse for state paupers at Tariff vile is condemned as illegal and unsuit- able The institution mentioned has re- ceived some incidental improvements during the year, but is considered unfit for the care of the large number of per- sons who are herded there.
 Thirty private asylums and homes for old people and children are visited by the board, and in general they give evil dence of good management and kindly treatment of the inmates.
 The report mentions the twenty eighth annual meeting of the national conference of charities and correction held in Washington In May last, which was attended by several delegates from Connecticut. The next session of the conference will be held in Milwaukee, Wis, in May, 1902.
 During the year regular meetings of the board have been held monthly at it's office In the Capitol, and provision is made for special meetings, also, when needed In addition to the regular quarterly visits to the state prlson hos pital for the Insane, school for boys and girls industrial school other visits have been made at intervals, and 1t is the desire of the board to cooperate with all of the institutions with which it is concerned in promoting the welfare of their inmates and the best interests of the state.
 The report is signed by the members and secretary of Nthe board as follows: Fl. Fl, Bridgman, president, Norfolk; Rebekah G. Bacon, New Haven; Mary Hall, Hartford; George F. Spencer Deep River; Edwin A. Down M. D., Hartford; Charles P. Kellogg, secreta- " Waterbury.

COFFEE EYES.
1t Attacks Many Persons There.

To illustrate how coffee can affect the eyes the words of lady in Woodland, la, are quoted.
 'T was brought up to believe that tea was injurious but was allowed to drink coffee from childhood. Ever since I can remember I have been subject to severe attacks of headache. otherwise my health was pretty good until short time ago my eyes became affected; they ached and pained me continually and were often badly inf1amed I also had queer dizzy feelings in my head almost continually
 One time we were obliged to do with out milk or cream for a few weeks, and not relishing my cottee clear l le1t on it's use. In a short time I was surprised to find my eyes greatly improved, and l felt better in every way, still l did not mistrust the coffee, and began its use as soon as we got cream again. Within q few days my eyes were worse than ever. Then I resolved to quit coffee ab- soluteIy and take up Postum, This l did and my eyes quickly recovered.
 My experience shows that while cof- fee caused headache and eye trouble Postum Food Coffee does not produce any bad effects whatever and is greatly strengthening and nourishing' Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

STATE CHARITIES.
Twentieth Annual Report is Submitted
 to the Governor-Its Features.

l Twentieth Annual Report is Submitted to the Governor-Its Features. The twentieth annual report of the
 state board of charities for the fiscal year 1901 has been presented to the governor. The report was presented in typewriter form, but will be printed with the report for the current year for distribution before the next session of the general assembly.
 The report contains general review of the years work in all the institu-
 tions in the state for the care of the
 delinquent. defective and dependent
 classes, with which the board is con-
 cerned, together with statistical infor-
 nation and recommendation for im-
 provements in certain directions
 There is shown to be in the state for
 the care of the classes mentioned a to- tai of nlnety-one institutions which, are
 visited by the board besides eighty eight town almshouses. The remaining
 eighty towns in the state which do not maintain almshouses, are also visited by the board to examine the provision otherwise made for the town poor. The expense to the state for the maintain ance and supervision of the institutions mentioned was $6S1, ,094 for the year, an increase over the amount so expended in 1900 which was s68S, $40. This in crease may be accounted for by the in- creased numbers of inmates supported. The amount expended by the state for building operations was $142 GOO, mak- ing the total cost to the state $S23, ,034 The amount paid by the towns for the support and care of the poor was S775,- 4S0, making a grand total of $1, ,59S, 514 expended in the state in the depart ment of charities and correction. This sum- though a large one, is not consid- cred excessive when compared with the amounts devoted to similar purposes in other progressive commonweaths and the report states that the expenditures of the institutions in Connecticut on the whole are administered to advantage.
 In the case of the state prison, the spirit evident throughout the under the administration of the present warden is highly praised and qualification is expressed at the passage of the law establishing indeter- minate sentences. Mention is made of the completion of the new buildings and improvements, and it is said that the prison may now be classed among the leading penal institutions of the coun- try

 Beautiful as is Funchal, it is by no means the best of Madeira, but merely | the gateway to better things. Having established headquarters at the capital one may make delightful excursions to points within easy reaoh-a jaunt for every day in the year and never go amiss of delightful scenery Nowhere in the world are so many charming views crowded into so narrow a com pass as on this small island, whose two hundred and forty square miles of area are mostly set on edge. Wherever one goes in the neighborhood of Funchal, the path leads steeply up hill or down, and the scenery is continually chang ing Here, a hitherto undiscovered mountain lifts it's bald head to the clouds: there new cliff is disclosed, falling sheer to the sea some thousands of feet; beyond, an unsuspected ravine yawns darkly at your feet. But always the picture of violet-ttnted hills and purple gorges is dominated by a group of cloud capped mountains with their exquisite gradationS of light and shade
 
 and festoons of mist trailing from crag to crag; and always, far below, the shining sea stretching to the horizon.
 Scattered all over the hills near Fun chal are the villas which the Portuguese artstocracy call ''quintas.' In the summer time all those who can afford to ococupy their own estates retire to them, for season of full enjoyment of that proudly exclusive way of living which the Portuguese gentry affect, It is not excessive heat which drives them from the city, for in Madeira, even at sea level the thermometer never rises above 76 degrees. Of course the cool ness of the atmosphere increases in pro- portion to the altitude reached, and one may regulate the temperature to suit himself by merely going little higher up or lower down, But a great many

Who Besmirehes the Army?

We lear much these days concern
ing efforts to besmirch the honor Of
the American army. The New York
Journal hits the nail on the head when
it says: "Who besmirches the honor
of the American army? Brutes in
uniform and their defendeYs-not men
who condemn the brutes. The Amer
can soldier, whatever his rank, who
forgets that he is in the service of a
civilized nation and becomes tortur-
er and murderer-he is a deadly en-
envy to the honor Of the American
army. And the morally lifeless civil
ian who seeks to find excuses for the
brute, though this civilian call him,
self the champion Of the army's honor
is among it's worst foes. There is nc
danger that the American people will
be hasty or harsh in their judgment
of the soldiers who are fighting in the
Philippines. Uniformed savages, dis
graceing humanity and their country
by atrocious deeds, will not, however, b'
