TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE?

We don't know how yellow the Neues Wiener Tagblatt usually is, but that is a fine specimen ot an mcredi- hle story which it displays when it says that negotiations are in progress for the sale of the Philippine islands to Ger many, and that the visit of Prince Henry to the United States is prelimi- nary to the announcement of the sale.
 This wont be believed in this country, and many will say it is too good to be true, It is a noble work to civilize and Christianize the Fiipinos, even if in doing it we have to kill many of them. But it costs much, and it is troublesome in many ways We paid Spain we'll for the privilege of engaging in the great and beneficent task, and if Ger many would pay us we'll for the priv ilege of taking it off our hands perhaps it wouldn't be exactly a assertion of duty to let her do 1t.

4 NOT4BLE CELERRATION.

On the 11th of next month the peo- ple of Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania, will celebrate the hundredth anniversary of the day when coal was first burned in their county. As the story goes, hard winter induced one Jesse Fell, the keep CT of a log tavern near the present site of the town, to make some experiments with black rock" He had been told that it was good fuel, and as other sorts were scarce. he had grate made especially for the purpose. All the neighborheod' worthies assembled to witness the first attempt to use these stones, and great was the joy when it appeared that they served the purpose a procession. some public speaking, dining and fireworks. One of the feat ures of the occasion will be the exhibi- ton of the grate in which the experi- ment was first made The approach of
  of the white mans early experiences with anthracite in Penn sylvania. There are signs that it was as early as 1760, and from then on there are occasional notices until the beginning of the last century, but it was long time after the first successful attempt to use it at Wilkes barre that any considerable trade de- veloped in the substance.
 If coal were cheaper perhaps the oth CT people of the country would feel that they could afford to take an inter barre people will have.

NOT SCA R I'D NOW.

Members of congress have received copies of petition signed by a, hun
 dred or more citizens of Boston and vicinity" The petitioners, without reference to party relations" unite in remonstrance against the proposed vast increase of naval expenditures. They
 regret to learn that the estimates for
 the Navy for the coming fiscal year ag-
 gregate nearly one hundred millions of
 dollars This, they point out, is about
 five times the amount expended only
 ten years ago, The new estimates amount to an average cost of over six dollars for every family in the country.
 Half of this sum applied to education
 would support five thousand manual training schools, at nearly ten thousand dollars apiece. throughout the United States They believe that it is a need less extravaganza to take for this pur- pose anything like one hundred millions out of the pockets of the people. They hold that the maintenance of a vast machinery of war is not only a serious burden upon the people, but a positive menace to the peace of the world. For more than a hundred years the United States has borne the honorable tradi- ton of a nation which has no need of great armaments, They urge all who believe in justice, godd will and hu- manity as the great safeguards of the interests of the nation to exert their in- fiuence to maintain this high tistinc- ton.
 It is remembered that when there was talk that Cervera' s fleet was bound for the North Atlantic coast of the United States, with the intention of bombarding the principal coast cities. citizens of Boston and vicinity Were decidedly scared, as much so as citizens of New Haven and vicinity. So there is some surprise in Washington that there should be an effort to discourage

1 BETTER SCHOOLS IN GEORGIA. Ware county is going to vote on February l on the question of levying
 a local tax for schools purposes. There ought to be no doubt as to the result ot the election. Ware is one of the progressive counties of the State, and we venture to predict that the majority in favor of the tax will be big one.
 Georgia is doing great deal of railroad building and vii continue to do a great deal for years to come, and her railroads are increasing her wealth and population, but If one half as much money were spent on school-houses and in supporting schools as there is in building railroads the development of the states resources would be twice as great as it is.
 The countries which refuse to tax themselves for schools depending who'll ly on the small amount they get from the state school fund, are standing in their own light. As long as they pursue that policy they will have reason to wonder why it is that home seekers pass them by, why it is that their lands do not advance in value, and why it is that there is no increase from year to year in their tax returns They are poor and will remain poor. In order to advance progressive methods must be adopted, and good common schools are one of these methods. News.

JANUARY

Unity of the blood is really the basis of the German method of curing disease
 by directing careful mastication of all tood The patient who presents him. self for treatment is ordered to give at least seventy bites to everything which he takes into his mouth, and he is urged to count the bites in order to make no mistake As rule the patient IS allowed to select his own diet, the only stipulation being that it shall be one that is readily digested and that it shall be properly masticated. One of the earliest results noticed is that heavy eaters begin to consume much less food. As the digestion improves less food is taken, because it is all assimllated.- Baltimore Sun.

SOME HUMAN URF.

When 8 man does make up his mind to be a brute to loving, faithful wife he can be a low-doWR one. In Brown county, Kansas, man has brought suit for divorce, alleging that his wife is biz and fat and strong and able to work for her own living, whereas he is sickly and unable to work at all. He says he can live on his pension, but that it is not enough for two, and he asks the court to send the fat wife away and make her hunt for work.
 Could anything exceed the sordid brutal quality of this performance? Probably not, but it is somewhat close ly approached in the action of that Brooklyn woman who the other day brought her husband into court for non-support. It appeared that she had an income of S7,000 a year, while her sickly husband, when he could get work, was able to earn two dollars a day, When the judge had heard the ease he ordered the woman out of court and told her that she was the kind of woman who if her husband only got dollar day would want dollar and q half of it.

The Philadelphia Record says that Dr. Thomas Hewson Bache of that city, lneal descendant of Benjamin Frank lin in the fifth generation, has what is probably the most remarkable collec- tion of Franklin portraits in the world. Altogether there are mcra than one hun dred prints and engravings and some original drawings in the collection, gathered in the course of years in many parts of this country and Europe Of all these many pictures the best DOT trait is believed to be a crayon study bv Boissier, the French portrait paint er. which Dr Bache picked pp in Paris in 1864. The likeness has great deal of character and spirit in it, depicting the placid features of the philosopher in one of his habitual moods of reflection. The whole collection exhibits Q wonder ful variety of expression The most au thentic likenesses of Franklin are Horl- don's bust, taken from life cast of the features, from which the many statues of the philosopher are modelled, and Martins painting from life, three quarters portrait in oil, of which there are two copies in Philadelphia, executed by Washington Peale.

For the Right.

Nay, not for fame, but for the right To make this fair world falrer still, Or lordly lily of d night,
 Or sun-t0pped tower of q hill, Or high or low, or near or far, or dull or keen, or bright or dim, or blade of grass, or brightest star All, all are but the same to Him, 0 pity of the strife for place; Q pity of the strife for power: How scared, how marred mountain face; How fair the face of d flower. The blade of grass beneath your feet The brayest sword; aye, hraVer far To do and die in mute defeat. Thou brayest cOnqueror of war. When I am dead say this, but this; He grasped at no mans blade or shield, Or banner bore, but hemetless, Alone, unknown, he held the field; He held the field with saber drawn, Where God sent him in the fight; He held the field, fought on and on, And so fell fighting for the right.

During the last year Paris consumed eight hundreds tons of snails. The ami mals are bred in Burgundy and Savoy, where they are kept in inclosures formed of tarred palings, which they cannot climb over, and are fed upon vine leaves. It is said that they thus acquire the delicate flavor of superior Burgundy wine and people with vivid ineginations think they can taste it.

MT Bowers had some trou- ble with the civil service commission and in San Diego interview expressed the opinion that civil service was a flake" and that one Roosevelt, a young man in the commission, was "fakir." Mir Bowers was made collec- tor of San Diego by President Mckin- ley. His name came up before Pres- dent Roosevelt for reappointment. Rus .seI c.

A few days ago wild goose, weigh ing sixteen pounds, was shot and killed by hunter on the shores of Lake Liberty, about twelve miles from Spokane, Wash The hunter was sur prised to see 8 piece of polished ivory protruding from the breast of the goose about two inches. The flesh had grown tightly around it and the wound had entirely healed. It was a long, sharp arrow point, about eight inches long and as large as an ordinary lead pen ell. Delicate carvings were on the ivory where it had been attached to the ar TOW stick Evidently the bird had borne the arrowpoint from the far arc tic regions where it had been shot by some Eskimo hunter. The goose was a full-grown male and had probably re- ceived the wound a long time ago.
