BAN ON CoALING STATIONS.
Palma Opposes American Flag Flying
In Havana

WASHINGTON. D. c. March G2-There
is a prospect that the plans of the adj
ministratiOn will have to be radically
changed in regard to coaling stations
i'm Cuba. The administration is expect
ed to establish stations at Havana. Nipe
bay, on the northern coast and Guam
tanamo and Cienfegos on the southern
coast of Cuba.
President-elect Palma emphatically
informed Secretary Root that he was
certain the new Cuban government
would never consent to establishment
of a cOaling station at Havana. He
said there was no intention of avoiding
the terms of the Plat amendment, but
that he felt that the capital should be-
long to Cuba alone and that no other
flag should wave within it's boundaries.
Mr.. Palma also made it clear that he
believed one coaling station at Guanto-
namO bay would be sufficient for the
needs of the United States, instead Of
four, as desired by the administration.
Palma's position as to coaling stations
is regarded here as an indication that
the Cuban administration, which will
be inaugurated May 20, intends to cut
the leading strings held by the United
States as soon as possible

Philadelphia milliners with the heads
and wings of these birds. He has al
ready made contracts to supply a large
number of heads at so cents and wings
at 20 cents a pair. The hatchery at
present is comparatively small, as he

Intelligent Robins,

The following incident seems too re-
markable to be true. and yet it is vouch-
ed for by writer whose word should
not be doubted: Two robins were try
ing to teach their little one to fly 1t

and fell to the ground. My little boy
caught it, and | told him to put it on
the roof of our side porch.
Then he and watched to see what
the old birds would do. They futtered
about the yard for awhile and then
flew off. We waited for them to re-
turn, but they did not. and had just
made up my mind that they had de-
serted the young one when | saw them
coming, accompanied by a third one,
They few directly to the roof of the
porch. and saw that one of them had
a piece of Irvine in its bill.
And what do you suppose they did
next? If | had not seen it, | never
would have believed it. Two of them
caught hold of the Irvine. one at each
end, and the little one caught the mid
die of it in his bill. Then they flew off
the porch. the third robin flying under
the little one and supporting it on his
back.-Minneapolis Journal.

Overreached Himself.

There is no man more pleasantly sit
uated than the country editor, so call
ed, who has a well equipped printing
office in good town, with fair share
of the county printing, good circula-
ton and plenty of jobwork and adyer-
Using. 1t may be that he takes turn
occasionally at working the press, max.
ing up the forms or even setting his
own editorials in type. but he takes an
honest pride in being able to do these
things. He is willing to give every
man his due, but insists on his own
rights and dares to maintain them.
Such an editor was Colonel Blk of
Boomtown. A customer whom he knew
as a close listed man came in one day
to get hundred sale bills he had or
dered the day before. The editor hand
ed him the bills neatly tied in pack
age. The customer united the string,
laid the bills on the imposing stone"
and proceeded to count them.
Editor Blk watched the count. When
it was concluded. there proved to be
six over and above the hundred. With
out word Blk took the six extra bills
off the pile, crumpled them in his hand,
threw them into the office stove and
smilingly bowed his crestfallen patron
out.-Youth's Companion.

ORIGIN of Old GInrv

In the "reminiscences of Lord Ronald
Cover is found story of the origin Of
the stars and stripes.
The star spangled banner" of the
American republic has its origin from
an old brass on the floor of Brington
church, in Northamptonshire. The
brass covers the tomb of one Robert
Washington and is dated 1622. On it
appears the Washington coat of arms,
consisting of three stars, with bars or
stripes beneath them. On the first day
of the new year, 1776, the thirteen
united colonies raised a standard at
WaShington's headquarters.
This introduced the stripes of the
present, but retained the crosses of st.
George and st. Andrew on blue
ground in the corner. In III the cross.
es were replaced by stars, as the Dec
laration of Independence rendered the
retention of the English element unnec-
essary and inconvenient. In thus adopt.
ing the arms of his ancestors as his
own distinctive badge Washington nc
doubt intended the flag merely as a
private signal for his own personal fol
lowing, but it was at once adopted as
a national emblem. Probably there is
not another case in the worlds history
in which the private arms of an oh
scure family have attained such world

Nanny Mary's Message.

In the course of her career, says a
writer in Current Literature, Nanny
Mary had met many distinguished per.
sons, but her own Importance as nurse
for three generations in the family OF
General John B. Gordon of Georgia
kept her from being overwhelmed by
the honor.
When Mrs. Cleveland, during the sec
ond term of her husbands presidency
visited the Gordons at the governors
mansion in Atlanta, she expressed a
desire to see a genuine old negro mann
my. So the carriage was hitched up
and Nanny Mary was sent for at
Sutherland, the Gordon country place,
which she preferred to the noise and
excitement of official life. When the
coachman drew up, he found her smok-
ing her evening pipe. Not step would
she stir.
'She done say" said the unsuccessful
envoy on his return to town. dat she
don want to see no presidents; she
done see 'nough presidents"
Mrs. Cleveland laughed heartily when
she heard this. Then she proposed to
go to the mountain. since Mohammed
refused to bulge, and the next day she
drove out to Sutherland.

Mrs. Gordon before introducing the dis
tinguished guest, that you sent such

Governors island, the military reser-
walton in upper New York bay, is to
be more than doubled in size and trans

country. When the plans for improv-
ing the post, which have been approved
by Secretary Root, are fully executed,
it will be rs though nearly every build

planned its post for entirely new

1t is the intention of the war de-
partment to have Il full regiment on
duty at Governors island all the time.
In time of war with a foreign nation
facilities will be afforded for taking
care of Il brigade in tents. There will
be deep water docks, and transports
can load and unload right at the gov
eminent piers. There will be ware
houses for storing provisions and 9th
er stores intended for shipment and
the general use of the army.
The improvements provide for an
outlay of $l.595O00. They contemplate
an addition of sixty acres to the pres
ent area, so that the new island will
