DANISH WEST INDIAN SALE.

The friction that seems to be encoun-
tered in Denmark in the effort to carry
out the treaty for the sale of the Dan
ish West Indian islands to the United
States is not creating any particular
anxiety in this country. In point of
fact, it is not probable that when the
treaty was made any one here took
much interest in it. unless it might be
certain individuals who thought they
saw personal benefit to come to them
selves if it was contaminated. AS the
affair is now, if Denmark doesn't enjoy
her bargain and chooses to back out
OF it. she is not likely to be urged to
a different course in this quarter. and
certainly not at the suggestion of the
American people to those in authority
at Washington. The American people
have never taken more than a very
faint interest in this subject.-Boston

IN THEIR NEW HOME.

Historians note an odd coincidence
attending the removal OF the bluecoa
boys from their hostoric home in Lon
don to the new Christ's hospital at
Horsham 1t was during the reign of
an Edward, the sixth English sover-
eign who bore the name. that the in
stitution was founded and located in
London. For three centuries and a
half it remained on the original site.
Now. under the seventh Edward. 1t is
moved to IA brighter and more sanitary
spot.
Two days ago the boys met in their
new abode for the first time. The
opening exercises were of very sim
pie character. The king had expected
to be present. but was prevented by
the pressure of matters bearing on the
coronation.
The town of Horsham turned out in
force to welcome the new arrivals, and
the boys. with banners flying, marched
proudly to the school and took posses
sion. AT the first session addresses
were delivered by the Rev. Arthur w
Upcott. the successor of the Rev. r
Lee as head master.-London Letter tC

INC MES CUT DOWN.

All but three of thu larger savings
banks in New York some time ago re-
duced the rate of interest on deposits
to 31a per cent.
Two of these now announce that
their digtribution on July l will be re-
duced from 4 per cent paid last year,
to the prevailing 312; and it may be
that the third viii follow suit.
The two savings banks that have de-
cided to cut down have nearly 1000
open aCco-' is. Assume that each de-
positor. a. mead of a family or other
wise, represents three others. and you
have MOI than a million persons di-
rectly ected by the action of these
two in i;utions.
The:a are but two out OF forty two
saving banks in the city of New York
which hold more than 100000, 900. due
to nearly a million and a half of de-
positors. The figures are startling in
their suggestion of the vast number of
persons whose pockets are touched by
the recent general reduction in the rate
of interest.
That the depositors in these days of
cheap money and high priced secur-
ties can get as much as 312 per cent on
the sums intrusted to the savings
banks is due to the good management
of those institutions and to the foster
ing care of the community, which re-

The Missouri papers are telling this
story of Mark Twain's recent visit to
the state. a big crowd gathered at a
railway station to meet him. A little
boy knew that somebody was coming,
but he did not know Mark Twain from
Bessie Francis. This kid perched him
self on top of a freight car, where he
could see what happened. The train
rolled in, and as Mark stepped off the
people became excited, and shouted

THE 1902 SEA SERPENT.

1t is early in the season for the sea
serpent to put in it's appearance. but
the fact that it has already been seen,
both in ocean and inland waters,
shows that it is not unmindful of it's
duty as a public entertainer and as
food for marvel. That it should have
come so early is also encouraging. Tor,
as its season lasts well nigh until
snow flies, there is ample time for it
to display itself in all it's manifold
shapes and horrific aspects and to suf-
fer any sea changes into something
rich and strange. "-Chicago Tribune.

WEST POINTERS NEEDED

In the debate in the house last week
over the conference report on the sem
ate amendment to the army appropria-
ton bill to increase the number of
West Point cadets, Representative
Mcclellan, democrat of New YORK,
said: The army is not. never has
been, and never will be the asset OF
any political party" This is the SIM
pie truth, although some democratic
senators and representatives nave at
tackled the army as if it were an asset
OF the republican party and its value
could be destroyed by abuse. The
army is an asset of the whole country.
Whenever its services have been
needed it has proved itself one of the
most valuable assets of the country
Whatever can be done to add to the
value of that asset should be done.
Therefore, there should be no opposi-
ton to making provision for more ca
diets. The United States never has had
enough trained army officers when
there was an urgent demand for the
services of such men. When there is q
demand and it cannot be met the coun-
try suffers, for good officers cannot be
improvised. With an adequate supply
of them it takes but a short time to
transform raw recruits into good SOL
diers If the trained officers are not
forthcoming until war has trained
them, it takes more time to make eff
cient soldiers out of the volunteers On
whom the country must depend when
large armies are needed
An increase in the number of Off
GERS does not necessitate an increase in
the number of private soldiers. The
result may be that the army will seen
over-officered III time of peace. Pseudo
economists will complain of this
Whenever an emergency arises there
will be ample employment for every
West Point graduate. When the COM
paratively small war with Spain came
unexpectedly. as most wars do. the
government could have used to advan
tage the services of many times thu
number of trained officers at its com
mand Gentlemen who oppose an in
crease in the number OF cadets forge
this. They forget it is as desirable
that there should be on hand a reserve
of educated officers as that there
should be always on hand stocks o
military supplies far in excess of cur
rent needs.-Chicago Tribune.

THE BOSS MEDICINE.

H. P. Kumpe. Druggist, Leighton.
Ala, writes: lone Of my customers
had a child. which was sick, and threw
up all food, could retain nothing on it's
stomach. He bought one bottle Of
Whites Cream Vermifuge, and it
brought up 119 worms from the child.
It's the boss worm medicine in the
world" Whites Cream Vermifuge is
also the children's tonic. 1t improves
their digestion and assimilation of
food, strengthens their nervous system
and restores them to health, vigor and
elasticity of spirits natural to child
hood. Csc at Elvey & Hulett's the Live

ANCIENT SKY-SCRAPERS.

Numerous conflicting estimates have
been made of the height of the Tower
of Babel, but one fact never has been
denied, and that is that it was sky
scraper. ST. Jerome, in his commen-
tary on Isaiah, says that the tower
was already 1000 PAGES high when God
came down to stop the wprk. A pace
is about two feet and a half. therefore,
1000 PAGES must be 10000 feet, conse-
quently Babel was twenty times as
high as the Pyramids, which are only
about 600 feet. Father Calmet says
the tower was 81, 900 feet high, and that
the languages were COMPOUNDED be-
cause the architects were COMPOUNDED
as they did not know how to bring the
building to a head. Moreover, it is
understood that the Chinese language
of today was originally the same Ian
guage as the High German.-New

THE PERFECT LIVER MEDICINE.

Mrs. NJ. A. Jolley, Noble. o. T.,
writes: II have used Herbine for a
number of years and can cheerfully
recommend it as the most perfect liver
medicine, and the greatest blood puri-
fer. 1t is u medicine of positive merit,
and fully accomplishes all that is
claimed for it," Malaria cannot find
a lodgment in the system while the
liver is in perfect order, for one of its
functions is to prevent the absorption
of fever producing poisons. Herbine is
a most efficient liver regulator. SOC at
