FOOT TO RESIGN.

From Washington come reports of fndi-
cations that Secretary or War Root is to
resign soon. The Globe has an idea
that President Roosevelt would rejoice if
he should. Root is a great lawyer, one
of the brainiest men in the cabinet in
recent years, but man with no previous
political experience. 1t is essential that
cabinet officer should be polite and dip
lomatic as well as efficient in his partic-
ular department; in fact, the latter re-
quirement is Of small moment, Cor there
are any number of skilled specialists
and experts in the departments who can
furnish the technical information for the
carrying on Of the departments af-
fairs.
Root is credited. with having been 'un-

Jail Built of Rails.

One of the queerest jails of Luzon was
that built by Col. Jacob H Smith. of tvs
Seventeenth infantry, at Bautista. Col.
Smith had been ambushed. but had cap
tur'd the ambushers, had killed twelve
cf tkcm and taken a humber OF gins.
He brought his prisoners to Bautista, but
found no adequate jail accommodations
ana were some Unused Ug ihg rails %n
beside the track. He solved the prob
lem by making Jail of these rails, lay
ing them up in the shape of diamond.
forming an inclosure about fifteen feet
wide. The entrance was by an alIev of
rails so narrow that only one man could
pass through at time. Other rails were
put over the top, and into this iron cage
the insurrectos were brought. There were
fifty of them in the cage. and a harder
looking set of Filipino brigands has not
been often seen.-Onlaha Bee

wise" in several instances to the humilia-
ton of his chiefs administration. Which
probably means that he has done what
Roosevelt wanted done, but which af-
terward proved to be a boomerang. and
the secretary was selected as the scape-
goat.
The particular instance of Roots Of
Tending was in concealing the report of
Maj. Gardener, civil governor of a prov
ince in the Philippines, from the public
There is no doubt he concealed it by di-
rection of his chief, but it leaked out and
there was storm of public indignation.
Concealment of the report was at once
accepted by the public as an evidence Of
deception on the part of the administra-
ton, and there was great roar of con-
demnation from all parts of the country.
AS Alger was made to bear the odium
Of the war scandals in the Mckinley ad-
ministration, so Root will be offered up by
Roosevelt. There is no doubt that person
ally Root will be glad to get out of the
cabinet. He will probably stay out of
politics the rest of his days.

Now Comes the Auto Nose,

Henry A. Jones', q well known phvs,-
clan,e has recently made the discussion
OF ladies' noses quite an ordinary kind
OF Oh conversation, especially in connection
that they are to be dealt with now. He
asks: why is it that the fair occu-
pants of motor cars invariably have their
noses screwed as nigh up as possible for
a nose to be? The aquilines seem to aim
at becoming fetrousses, and the retrous-
ses seem to wish to strike the forehead
with upltfted tip. The expression pro-
ouced by this nasal effort is not that Of
pieasure-it seems more like that Of dis
gust. 7u
Perhaps it is tribute to the driving
wind and dust, ana in petrol cases to
Jones ''it seems as ii the motor nose.

Ieges That Contract Exists Be-
tween City and Company which
Is BEYOND Jurisdiction of Courts.
The st. Paul City Railway company
thinks the board of water commissioners
in error when it presumes to fasten upon
them the responsibility for the presence
of electrolysis, and it's injurious effects
upon the st. Paul water system. The
company so declares in its answer filed
yesterday with the legal department in
response to the heavy damage suit
brought against them by the city
While making the usual declaration. the
denial of every allegation, the company
says that it does not presume to say there
is no such thing in st. Paul as cleo
trclysis, but contends that what current
is discharged into the ground is the
product of other electrical concerns doing
business in the city. Other sources, the
answer says, also contribute
What the company, however, hopes to
base it's principal defense on, and the ulti-
mate dismissal of the city's suit for dam
ages, is the claim that a contract exists
and the court cannot interfere. Their use
Of the streets, they say, was authorized
by the city and the system now in use. a
single trolly, was accepted by the city's
agents. In substance, they saw it
amounts to contract and is beyond the
jurisdiction Of the courts. AS to other
systems for the prevention of electrolysis
the company says there is no other more
effective than the one now in use. and
which the city authorized. All these con-
tentions are based on the ASSUMPTION
that the St. Paul water works is q mart
and parcel of the city of ST. Paul and NOT
q distinct institution with the rights Of
suing and being sued, as is claimed for
1t by the water works commissioners
The city they contend, is the real party
and on these grounds they ask dismissal
of the suit
A separate answer is made by the Twin
City Rapid Transit company, which is
also made a party to the claim for dam
age sustained by the water board The
company admits that it owns stock in the
st. Paul City Railway company but de-
MED that it operates any lines in st. Paul
The water board is suing the cornDanv
for S5O0,O00 and permanent Injunction re-
straining the street car company from
maintaining any system that will allow
the escape Of it's currents. The board init
mates to the court that the only proper
system in its judgment is the double
trolly. This the street car company does
not want, as it would entail an enormous
expense.

Pet Dog Club in Trouble.


Through the pernicious activity of a
process server who even invaded an after
noon tea, society is again stirred over
the half forgotten troubles of the Ameri-
can Pet Dog club. The organization has
not given a show since the fall of 1892
when the club made a failure of it's ex-
hibition at the Metropolitan Opera house.
The officers of the club were society
women who wished to promote interest i'll
dogs Of high degree. They knew little
about the financing Of such matters, and
the question Of money was left to mere
men.
There have been numerous complaints on
the part of numerous importunate cred
itors, and the last one to raise his voice
is Charles e. BraXmer, a maker of medals
in Maiden lane, who says that he has not
been paid for 81, 900 worth of gold and sill
yer discs which he furnished the club. He
has had some difficulty in getting service,
as many of the former officers have eth
er moved from the city or have changed
their addresses.

lent to the opening Of headquarters for

is not intensely deSirOuS at this time of

to Mr.. Hill but prefers to wait until the
outcome of the primaries shows the trend
of sentiment in the party, both here and
in the UP state counties. From time to
time Mr.. Nixon has asserted that person
ally he regards Mr.. Hill as the logical
state leader but Tammany as a whole
is not entirely friendly to the former
senator and rather than create friction
the local leader prefers to await the
judgment Of his followers after delegates
to the next convention have been chosen.
