How 1t is Done.

One day the turtle announced
that he could walk on the water,
and that he would do it at GER
tain date and place. The turtle
was known as good Mixer, being
equally at home in the dry and in
the wet. He also had record with
the sporty boys on account of a
certain affair with the hare. where
in he had won out. So he had a
lot of friends who were anxious to
see if he could get there. When
the day came, all the fish assem-
bled at the place. while the frogs
sat on the bank and croaked. The
turtle stood ON the shore and
watched the assembling of the
multitude. which at last filled the
stream. Then he approached the
water, and calmly walked across ON
the heads of the suckers. side. STEP

The people of the United States
are such useless puppets any more
that the President declines to take
them into his confidence, or advise
them why he does, or does not dc
a public act. A case in point is in
regard TO the British supply station
in Louisiana. TIE President re-
spending to a complaint of the
Governor of Louisiana detailed a
special officer, one Captain Crow
der. to investigate the charges and
report the facts. The officer per-
formed the duty as ordered, but the
President refuses to let the public
see or know the testimony taken
by Crowder, or to let his report be
published. Roosevelt says the
British are all right, and he ap.
proves of all they have been doing
at their stations in Missouri and
Louisiana. The question that dis
turbs the people is what is there
about the report of Crowder that
forbids its publicity? Thegeneral
belief is that it shows conclusive
ly the truth of every thing alleged
and that the station was used for
illegitimate purposes and for the
shipment of articles contraband of
