An Un-dmerican War.

In the Course Of the House debate
On the Urgent Deficiency Approp-
ration bill Representative Cochran,
OF Missouri, reminded Congress
that the war to subjugate the peo-
pie OF the Philippines has already
cost the United States government
enough to construct the Mica ra-
guam Canal and to build 300 war
ships for the American navy.
That is putting the case in con-
crete form which brings 1T home to
the understanding of every Amer
lean citizen. Naturally, the ques-
ton arises what have we gained
by all this expenditures Certainly
the gain cannot be counted in dol
ars and cents for the whole trade
Of the Philippines for the next hnn
dred years will probably net yield
profit equal to the amount already
expended in the war Of subjugation.
The war is not paying the Uted
States in glory, for there is not
much honor to be gained in fight
ing bOlomen and half savage band
it'll, The Philippine war does not
add to the respect and admiration
felt for this country by foreigners
because it is departure from the
principles and practices that have
heretofore obtained. Writing on
this subject the St.Louis Republic
says:
"The CHASTITY Philippine muddle
has become very sore spot on the
national body. A policy of helpless
indecision, of infirm judgment, OF
unwillingness to face the truth and
act thereon according to American
standards, has placed this govern
ment in a sorry plight. The humid
reds Of Millions OF dollars that are
being spent in the Philippines are
worse than wasted. They are be-
ing paid out to commit us finally
and irrevocable TO colonialism and
Imperialism. The Am
orleans are not blind to these facts.
The blood and money cost of war
that violates the basic principles OF
American government is bitterly
begrndged. The American imper.
ialists IT sponsible for the aIalling
Philippine situation will yet be
held to stern and full accounting
by the American people'.-Lynch.

HAD ON JUDGES COAT.

A negro boy was up before Judge
Gordon in the Tampa Police Court a
day or two ago on the charge of va
grancy. 1t was noticed, says the Tam
pa Times, that as soon as the Judge
caught sight of the boy he looked him
over closely, and while disposing of the
other cases he would occasionally cast
a glance at the negro, and smile. 1t
was evident that the court had some
thing on his mind in regard to the
negro. Willie Anderson was the
next name called, and the neSro boy
came up before the court rather reluc-
family. The boy had on a brand new
coat, which was several sizes too large
for him. The court first inquired into
the charge upon which the boy had
been arrested, and gave him a SEN
tence of ten days on the street gang.
Where did you get that coat?" de-
nlanded the court. From a Teller in
the city market. I don't know his
name, was the reply. Take 1t off,"
said the judge. The boy obeyed, when
Judge Gordon examined it closely. and
found that it was his own coat, which
had been stolen from him several weeks
ago. After Anderson serves out his
sentence of ten days you will hold him
for larceny, Mr.. Chief" said the court,
addressing the chief of police, and Will

Columbus is coming to be a serious
one. For some time the water for
drinking and domestic purposes has
been unfit for use, and those who could
avoid it have not used any of it for
a week or two past. There has been
a great deal of complaint and physi-
clans who have visited the reservoirs
the water unhealthy and unfit for use.
The supply is not only limited, but
the source of supply to the reservoirs
has about disappeared. A few days
ago the water commenced to give out
a very bad odor, and when several
citizens went out to the reservoir they
were surprised to find that the upper
reservoir was very low and muddy,
and that the supply in the lower one
was stagnant, as the creek which fur
nishes the supply has dried up. The
immediate cause of the scarcity of wa
ter is the long continued drought. The
city, too. is rapidly growing and needs
more water, while the capacity of the
waterworks is the same that it was
years ago. A resolution has already
passed the City Council instructing the
preparation of an ordinance ordering
an election for bonds for new water
works. AT the meeting OF the board
of Health Thursday an analysis of the
sample of Columbus water was re-
ceived from the state chemist, who
decided that the water was loaded with
organic matter in a state of putre-
faction and was, therefore, unfit for
drinking purposes. The board adopt
ed resolutions declaring the water I'M
wholesome and unfit for use and ap-
pointed a committee to investigate the
advisability of the city using river wa
ter in lieu of the present supply.

Blind Dog Convictr hoy.
From the Chicago Tribune,

EIOIn Tie SulCdSO 1TlOuIc
A small dog biinked it's one sound
eye in the direction of young Jerry
Wilson yesterday and uttered a faint
growl
$50 that's the boy who threw potash
in your face, is it?" inquired Justice
Hurley, before whom young Williams
had been summoned.
The answer was another growl and
another blink.
You are a good Witness" replied the
justice. Williams, the dog says you
are guilty and l am going to take his
word. will fine you SIS and in addi-
ton you must apologize to the dog"
The boy shame faced and hating
approached the witness chair in which
the dog was sitting, but there was no
apology. The dog itself vetoed that
Displaying its teeth the animal ut
tered another and more savage growl
and started to spring at the boy whose
cruelty had destroyed one of its eyes.
You may dispense with the apol-
ogy," said the justice. The dog, I
guess, will be satisfied with the fine"
But / haven't the SIS" protested
the boy. Il have only S.. l am sor-
ry hurt the dog, so won't you let me
off for the $6?"
Justice Hurley refused to reduce the
fine, but agreed to allow the boy his
liberty on condition he would work to
earn the money with which to pay
the other 50.
And be careful how you treat dogs
in the meanwhile" was his admoni-

Young Williams, who is Is years old,
lives at 3204 Prairie avenue and the in
jured dog is the property of the jani-
tor of the fiat building at that num-
Der. On July 10, according to the ev-
idence, the boy threw potash in the
dogs face. destroying the sight of one

The case was brought to the atten-

the boy. Humane Officer Nolan pros

1t was shown that the dog was a
docile cerature and never had annoyed

Putnam Bradlee Strong and the wom-
an May Yohe. The Tribune says:
The disappearance of May Yohe
from her mothers home at Hastings
on-the- Hudson was a development in
the Strong Yohe case which seemed to
have been expected by some of the
friends of the late Mayor Strong and
of his widow. They talked as if they
were inclined to believe that Capt. Put
nam Bradlee Strong and the former
Lady Hope would be together again
soon, and that there had been an un-
Outstanding between the pair all
along.
After spending most of the morning
directing the packing of her trunks,
as If intending to take a journey, Miss
Yohe slipped out of the back door of
her mothers house, rode on a trolley
car to Yonkers, and got en- train on
the Putnam Division for New York.
About the same time her mother trav-
eled to the city on a Hudson River
train. accompanied by a Japanese
maid. These movements aroused sus-
picion that Miss Yohe intended TO go
to Japan and rejoin Capt. Strong
there.
The recent disappearance of the cap

Yohe's jewels out of the safe deposit

Miss Yohe's threats of vengeance, the
request for a police search and the Of

arrest, and Miss Yohe's disappear

which might induce Mrs. Strong to

lucky the consideration being 100000.
The knickerbocker Trust Company of
New York held a mortgage in trust
