A Striking Story.

What Bradstreet's aptly styles GA
striking story of success in admins
tration" is the record Of the work
accomplished by the United States
Government for the Cubans in the
last four years. History may be
challenged to show one more com
mendable. Since Spanish rule was
ended in the island by the applica-
tion of superior American force, the
officials of the War Department col
lected $57, 1872 ,20S.40, and they dis
bursed $55,371, 37O.44 leaving net
surplus at the end of the occupation
of about 81, 100000. Sixteen custom
houses we're established and more
than 800 post offices were opened.
A free-delivery system was put IN
operation in the larger cities, and
railway post lines and star routes in
the interior gave the people through
out the island the advantages OF a
regular mail service. Schools and
hospitals were established, and pub
lie works of various sorts were in
augurated with most beneficial results
for the immediate future of the coun-
try. Among the Incidents OF the
work are the making of roads and
the telegraph lines, the Improvement
of sanitary conditions in the Getty, the
betterment of harbors, the establish
ment of buoys and beacons, the re-
pair and construction of warehouses
and docks, and the establishment OF
a marine quarantine.

They tell you here that the saloon
keepers paying high license will see
that the law is enforced and all re-
strictions lived up to. Not one sa-
loon keeper in Wisconsin dares open
his mouth, no matter how another
evades or breaks the law; for not a
day passes over his head that he does
not himself break the law, by sale to
minors and drunkards, keeping open
over hours, or having back door
latchstring out on Sundays or holi-
days.
They say in Vermont that they
would have a law which would per
nit but one saloon in town like this.
There is no limit to the number that
may be licensed in Wisconsin. You
do not know there would be limit
in Vermont. If there were limit.
and there should be but one allowed,
would that fact give virtue to the
law? That one saloon would be such
profitable institution that it would
be made most attractive, and would
be for the boys, the husbands, and
fathers, a gilded palace of sin and
Observation-Disclosures than perhaps a
dozen novels. The law in Wisconsin
reads, I believe. that license shall be
granted only TO "men of good moral
character" Think OF it Not an
applicant has ever been found de
PRAYED enough to be refused, if his
$500 license fee and bonds were
forthcoming.

Old Home Week Greeting.
By C. A. Lamson I


On this day which to Vermont sons,
Will ever be honored and blest;
! write and AJAX in simple rhyme,
A place in your thought with the rest.
No titled name, nor yet large wealth,
Can send as boast to you
But little talk in quiet way,
In a message plain and true.
The second time-just year ago,
Aud yet it seems but day,
Since | greeted you in cold Home Week. "
And tried in my simple way,
To rhyme love for my native town
Toeel that as heart to heart,
had place with old tina friends,
Though a thousand miles apart.
A Greeting to all, tits "Old Home Week "
But some shadows know have come.
Only to deepen and broaden love,
To sweetest music no voice hath sung,
Except the angels of Liberty -.all strong
Who by deeper faith our earth to leaven
Hath sweetened lite by honest toll,
Hath made for loved ones. home and
heaven.
Tis only step from you to them,
Just over the mountain there,
And when you reach its summit,
Lo, the valley is green and fair.
Tis only step from you to them
Their call is not twice nor thrice.
You will always find them at home know,
Over the mountain-ln Paradise.
A Greeting to you in Stowe, Vermont,
Yon mountain, wood and hill
Eyermore will sing sweet anthems.
When our voice is hushed and still.
Nv country, Oh, sweet land of fame,
Jewels for thy crown we bring,
OF Liberty, Justice, Mercy, for all
In memoram, Great God, our King.

THOUGHT IT A JOKE.
Freak of Chance That "A Scotch Professor
Took For American Humor

Took For American III umor
DR.. Newell Dwight Hills, pastor of
Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, rela tes
an experience that shows what
strange freaks Of chance sometimes
happen. DR.. Hills together with a
number of other American preachers
and many professors, was attending
n educational conference in Edin-
burgh, Scotland, says the New York
Tribune. There we're visitors from
all over the world. At a bar quet
given by the Scotchmen to their
guests DR.. Hills found himself seated
next a heavy browed professor of
metaphysics OF one OF the Scotch
universities.
Finding that his neighbor was from
New York, the professor began to
ask questions.
Il know America is quite large
country" he remarked, land know
Chicago is long distance from your
home but | have had some cores
pondence with Prof. B. of that city,
and thought you may have CHANGED
to know him. Did you ever meet
him?"

the Brooklyn preacher. "There he
sits at the next table, the third man

"Well, we'll How remarkable! ex-
claimed the Scotchman with a rather
incredulous glance at his companion.

ence with Prof. c., of a University in
Michigan" continued the metaphysi-
clan, Il guess you know nothing of
him."
"On the contrary, l know him
quite well. There he is over near the
corner of the room, the man with
the whiskers and gold spectacles.
This was too much of a coincidence
for the Scotchman's credulity. He
was plainly suspicious, and inclined

"that this is American humor, and
you are making game of me?"

"Well, sir, | have had relations with
one other American: | presume you

of sarcasm in the query.
"Who was he?"
"He was a minister somewhere
near New York, a certain DR.. Hills. "

self on the breast, 81 am DR.. Hills "
With a snort Of indignation the
Scotchman pushed back his chair
and fed from the room. American
hnmor had been carried too far.

A Summary of the Results of United States
Occupation-Good Start for Young Re-
pubIic-SchooIs, Custom Houses and Post
Offices Established, Public Roads Opened
and Telegraph Lines Put Up.
The bureau of insular affairs of the
war department has prepared state
ment showing what the United States
accomplished during the occupation
OF Cuba from the time the military
government was established, July
10 1898, until May 10, 1902.
Sixteen custom houses were estab-
lished, one at the chief port, Havana,
and others at the principal supports
of the island, and tariffs were put in
force. The principal changes in the
tariff have been the gradual reduc-
ton of duties on exports from time
to time until April 1, 1901, when
these duties were entirely abolished.
Postotfices were opened through
out the island, and native post
masters were appointed. More than
300 post offices were established.
There was established a depart
ment of finance, presided over by q
general treasurer, and six provincial
treasurers, one for each province.
Subse quently these provinces We're
redistrlcted and formed into eleven
so called fiscal 0nes.
The number of schoolhouses pro.
vided nearly equal those in this
Country for corresponding area.
There was constructed telegraph
line connecting with the principal
cities throughout the island and
maintained by the United States
signal corps.
Public roads were opened through
out the island, which, together with
the construction and repair of the
! bridges, have been of invaluable bene-
| fit to the inhabitants.
AS a sanitary measure the streets
of many of the cities were paved, aud
extensive systems of sewerage were
constructed.
The harbors of the island were
greatly improved, an admirable sys-
| tenn of buoys and beacons was estab-
| lished, government warehouses and
docks were repaired and constructed
and regulations conforming to those
in vogue in this country governing
the harbors of the island were estab-
lished.
The total revenues from all sources
| collected during the occupation were
$57 100000, the expenditures we're
S55 100000, the remainder having
been turned over to the republic OF
Cuba at the time of the withdrawal
of United States authority, May 10,
1902.
The buildings selected for barracks
and quarters for the army were used
] only temporarily by the troops ana
| were put in thorough repair and good
sanitary conditions when turned over
to the municipalities as hospitals.
Many of the most completely ap
pointed hospitals in the island have
fitted out in this way.
That the administration of the de-
partment OF sanitation was iudlcious
and thorough in it's results is apparent
in tie large decrease of the death rate
| in the island since modern sanitary
measures have prevailed. The death
rate prior to this time had been as
high as 80 and 80 per 1000, but de
creased to less than % per 1000,
and during the season just passed,
when yellow fever was at it's height,
Havana was entirely tree from the
epidemic.
A clear title to the public buildings,
roads, wharfs and schoolhouses pass
ed the Cuban republic.

 When the wolves arrived at the en trance, they became men. They walk. eI down the long passage and entered unharmed. In their prssence the arul- e,l mn, and charms became powerless. At a touch from the older wolf-broth- er tha lashings dropped from the woln- an, aId they carried her out.
