every turn, but naturally they are to be met
with more frequently in the record of recent
years than in that of the early part of the
century.
AS a recent writer says:
Germans Good Americans.
1T seems strange to the Germans in the
Fatherland that the Germans in America can
remain faithful to the ideals of German
thought and yet become good Americans; but
such is the true condition Of things, and it
would be futile for German politicians of the
Fatherland to expect any support from their
German American brothers in any scheme
that would directly or indirectly ingalidate
the unity, the power, or the present constitu-
ton and national character of the United
States.'
A long time ago, so long that few of it's
generation are alive now, some Germans who
came to America were inclined to be exclu-
sive. They talked of establishing separate
states within the union where German would
remain the official language, where none but
Germans would take up their abode. where
they could have a sort of miniature Germany,
with all the advantages of the western hemis-
pheres republic and with no interference
from it.
'The separate state" idea had long and
varied history. Schemes for wholesale colo
nizing were frequent, and the hackers were
In many cases notable Dersonages. some Of
whom had fallen into disfavor at home by
reason of their political opinions But the
colonies always suffered disastrous fate,
their individual members being finally forced
to wander away and start life for themselves
in some locality where the baneful bugbear of
exclusiveness had not exerted its influence.
The last notable attempt to form a German
settlement in America was that OF Prince

Of the contest is shown in the fact that
tour different speakers were given frsts
eMssrs. Bennett Webster and Mercer
agreed that the Schall grafton was the

given first place by Mr.. Shurtlef, while
the former mayor registered his opinion
that George P. Jones should have had the

Streets and Parks.
The parks of the city of Havana were
formerly of no practical use to the pub
lie. They were generally enclosed by
fences on the pretense of protecting the
flowers. AS a matter of fact little at
tention was devoted to the culture of
anything but vegetables, which the keep
ers sold and confscated the funds. One
of the first things the American military
governor did, was to serve notice on these
thieving officials that If they wanted to
follow gardening they had better move to
the country, and they with one accord
took to the tall timber A wonderful
change has been wrought in the appear
ance of the city in this respect. The
fences have all been removed; walks laid
out; seats installed, and they are now
serving the purpose for which they were
intended.
Aside from the parks, the most visible
evidence of Improvement under the
American administration is naturally the
streets. Under Spanish rule there was
no attention paid to repairing the thor
oughfares, nor cleaning or sprinkling
them. That they were wretched goes
without the saying. The American en-
glneers have put down 120 miles of mod
ern paving in Havana alone. They have
put In order hundreds of blocks that were
out of repair. They have established
stations along the coast where water can
be procured for sprinkling purposes-sea
water being the best for this use. They
have inaugurated a system for the col
lection of garbage that renders it's
services to 10000 houses every twenty
hours. The daily collection of the
garbage crew amounts to nearly 300 tons
of refuse, which was first taken to sea
on barges, but which is now destroyed
by modern crematory. The instalment
of sanitary systems and street improve
ment has not been confined to Havana
alone, but has been made general through
out the entire island, and in Santiago in
particular.
Street Cars Introduced.
One of the principal features of the
"Yankeeization' of Havana has been the
introduction Of electric cars. There were
formerly about six miles OF track in the
capitol, but the equipment, consisting of
little, bob-tailed cars and scrawny, under
sized mules, did not combine to make a
service worthy Of enthusiastic mention.
When the track was heightened out to
twenty four miles and Wizard Edison s
big electric flyers put on, all of Havana s
25O, 900 inhabitants wanted to ride at once.
One OF the peculiarities of the service is
the tendency Of the. motormen to run
ahead OF the schedule. They tear through
the narrow, crooked streets at rate that
is exceedingly dangerous The frequency
OF fatalities does not seem to have the
desired effect These yellow fellows are
strangers to the automatic brake. They
have been SO accustimed to driving steeds
that have to be urged by the constant ap-
plication Of whip and spur, that they seem
to have no fear Of one. that will run away.
AS consequence the Havana street cars
put the island express trains to shame

edge of the science of the game. Her long
throws for goals from the field have been
especially fine.
Miss Johnston, the other forward is
heady player, and although new at the
game, has developed wonderfully. She
will probably succeed Miss Jones on the
team next year.
Miss Trimmer at center is an agrees

guards, are both brilliant players. The
substitutes are all good players and have

sculptured likeness was about to be

the portrait of a local lady should be
taken for the mode, but it was decided
that it vas more fitting that a royal

Of Queen Alexandra was obtained.
The queen IS shown with hair flowing
over her shoulders. and then afterward
the figure was converted into arranged.
