PRESIDENT HARRISON's WINE.
Disappearance which Was En-
tireIy Satisfactory.

''The late President Harrison was
a connoisseur of rare old wines, al
though he was extremely temperate
in the use of them. At the time when
ne visited Stanford university TO deliv-
er four lectures on international law
for a fee OF $4,000 (Which is probably
the record price for university lee
tures), he was quartered in one OF the
college halls here a suite OF rooms
had been especially prepared for him.
Immediately after his arrival says
Beverages. there came also a case Of
carefully selected claret. burgundies
and madeiras. which were placed in one
of the rooms set apart for his use
The next day all these wines had
disappeared. and the only reminder OF
their previous existence was found in
long train OF empty bottles in the
midst OF the campus When President
Jor-.nn card Of this me summoned be
fore him .=e students of the university
a1-d sI=5e e..5 60 little address. in the
course ST s.aica be said that ne was
about to iussi -a.ean investigation into
tle parlsinia- &C SIR. Ilarrison's wines,
and taa, II would go much easier with
the guilty persons iT they would have
the mauIiness TO come forward and
own mp. After he had ceased speaking
there was "a long pause. and presently
one of the students in the back part
I of the room rose and said with a
] bland. imperSonal air:
Mr.. President. the bylaws Of the
unworthy forbid the bringing Of any
wines OF sPirituous liquors upon the
university grounds OF into the univeT-
7 sity buildings Consequently. If any
| wines or spirituous liquors have been
I brought in and If they have disaP-
{ Peared. which we all regret. they have
probably been seized as contraband,
and therefore the owner has no re
dress"
President Jordan made a few some
what inarticulate remarks and then
/ dismissed the meeting Nothing more
was said about the wine. and IL is prob
able that Mr. Harr1son's legal mind rec
/ ognized the force OF the point that had
/ been raised against him.

GUBA'S FINANCES AT LOW EBB
Islands Customs Receipts Below
$4,000 a Day.
Many Beneficial Measures InauEu-
rated by Gen. Wood Neglected for
Lack OF Funds-A Loan of $685.
100000 Is Authorized.

Washington, Aug. 5-The persist
ent and discOuraging reports that
reach Washington concerning fnan-
cfaI and business conditions in Cuba
are tending to strengthen the feel
ing referred to in dispatches imme-
diateIy after the return OF Gen. Wood
that the new republic cannot long
be maintained and the people of the
island viii seek annexation within
a year. Official figures received show
that the customs receipts of Ha-
yana, which amounted to an average
Of more than $4,000 a day during
the American occupation, have
dropped to less than $4,000 a day,
and have occasionally been as low as
s., 5000.
The reduction of the revenues has
compelled the Cuban government to
eurtaa its expenditures. In doing
that it is offsetting some of the most
important reforms inaugurated by
the United States while in control.
It is neglecting the sanitary meas
ures inaugurated by Gen. Wood in
Havana and Santiago. Already there
has been fear Of an outbreak of yell
low fever in those cities. Should such
a danger appear it would be incum-
bent on this government to inquire
why the sanitary measures had been
abandoned after the Cuban cOnsti-
tutional convention had adopted the
Plat amendment. That amendment
provided that Cuba should execute
plans to be mutually agreed on for
the sanitation of the island to pre-
vent the recurrence Of epidemics and
infectious diseases. Without any de-
sire to embarrass the Cuban govern
ment, the United States government
must insist on the continuance of
these plans of sanitation as a means
of protecting the country from vel
low fever. The surgeon generals of
the army and navy are watching the
situation with concern. The whole
situation is said to be most embar-
RAISING to President Palma in this
experiment of plotting Cuba as an in
dependent government with eXpen-
sive governmental machinery and a
reduced income The whole Cuban
people may be driven to seek annex
alton before congress meets in De-
cember, unless relief comes from
some quarter.
The state department has received
a cabIegram from Minister Squires
that the house has passed a bill au
thorizing a loan Of 100000. IN
der the Platt amendment the United
States is bound to take cognizance
of every action of the Cuban govern
ment relating to loans.
The Cuban senate has also ap.
proved in part the raising of a loan
of 100000 for the benefit Of the
sugar cane growers.

HAD HER EYE ON HIM.
And she Had Her Mind Made Up that
the Plumber should Do No
SOLDERING

She was the housewife who weighed
her purchases when they came up
from the grocer's, and who read the
family gas meter every morning in
the week as one Of her duties. When
a water pipe In the cellar sprung a
leak the other day she knew exactly
what should be done in the case, and
she went to a plumber and said:
Zone OF our water pipes has burst
''Yes-m.''
''It Is only a small leak"
Just so, ma'am-''
ut is handy u get at, and it won't
take over half an ounce Of solder and
10 minutes work
Perhaps not, ma'am-PerhaPs not, "
dOubtfully replied the plumber
But I'm sure Of 1t, and when your
man leaves the shop he won't have
anything to return for"
VERY well, ma'am-'
An hour later the plumbers work
man appeared, and he was escorted
down cellar and shown the leak.
You simply shut of the water and
solder 1T up said the housewife.
''Yes'm, but

| in the course Of ten minutes she caught
/ him sneaking out, and exclaimed:
What's the matter now? Have YOU
found some excuse for going TO tn,

''NO, ma ammo. ma'am, he replied

Then what Is 1t? What have yoJ

Topeka, Kan, Aug. 5.-An heat

FRIENDSHIP OF THE MANY.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox Attacks the Idea of
That Elect Few-UniversaI
Friendship.

Copyright. lsJ2, by W. r Hearth
On the cover of a recent issue of the
Philistine appeared the following motto.
To that elect few, who. early in life,
have succeeded in Kidding themselves Of
the friendship of the msny.-James
M'Neill Whistler"
In the same issue occurred the follow
ing editorial epigram:
If we are ever damned it will not be
1 because we have loved too much, but be
cause we have loved too little
If Mr. Hubbard, the editor Of the Phil
istine, believes the people who rid them
selves of the friendship of the many are
"elect" be certainly cannot believe IN
loving deeply and widely; for those who
love much are invariably much loved.
If you feel universal friendship for hu
mainly, If your heart goes out in sym
pathy to your fellow beings, as surely as
the sun and the dew bring forth grass
and flowers so surely viii you receive
friendship and sympathy from the
many"

cause it is not commonplace. 1t seems
like a new idea at first and savors Of cpl
curean taste.
But it does not bear analysis, nor is it
true, that those who have rid them
selves Of ths friendship Of the many
are select" or to be envied OF emulated,
If the author meant 1.-The association
of the many" he should have said So
He should not have misused the word
friendship"
There are people in the world who
I have many associates, many intimates.
many followers, but few OF DO friends
People in high places-kings, rulers
/ and milIionaires, leaders Of fashion-Of-
\ ten find themselves In this class.
/ They are constantly surrounded by
/ fawuing crowds, but they are not loved,
/ respected or valued save for what bene-
fits they might bestow.
! Money. time and vitality are wasted
upon mere troops Of sycoPhants- When
I the hour arrives that a few real friends
/ are needed they stand alone.
/ But the friendship Of the many
means quite another thing from the as
ISOLATION of the many If Mr.. Whistler
\ wished TO be original IN expression he
should not have sacrificed truth to that
end.
] Nor should a great humanitarian such
as Mr. Hubbard wishes to be considered
give his sanction to perverted PbilOsO-
I ply.
The people who have few friends
I and who love but few" IN this life are
people whose thoughts turn In upon
themselves, not out upon humanity.
( They are self centered, self conscious, or
sterile Of heart.
We receive what We give We reap
what we SOW. II We are capable Of wide,
deep, high friendship. We find the friends
on whom to bestow It and We receive
such friendship in return Now and
then we viii encounter ingratitude, de
ception and iDjustice. but We have only
TO wait, and the years viii give us happy
surprises in rich and bOuntiful and IN

WHATS IN A NAME2
(BensonS Plaster IA Palms Master)

In the days Of wild cat money In the
West, the Amos shovels were used as cur.
rency. They were as stable as gold their
price did not vary q cent in twenty years.
The very name Of Oliver Ames g. Son, was
Asynonyln for honesty. 1t was current all
over the world.
On the same principle Benson's Porous
Plaster is the universal standard external
remedy. To say it is ''good" plaster does
not describe it, IL is the best possible plaster.
For every disease in which an external rem
edy is available, Benson's Plaster Is used
almost as matter Of course.
Benson's Plaster quickly relieves and
cures where o.her modes of treatment are
either exasperatingly slow or have n good
effect whatever. Coughs, colds. lumbago,
kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back,
etc., are at once benefited and soon cured.
Capsicum, Strengthening and Belladonna
plasters have none of the curative virtues
of Benson's. More than 5000 physicians
and druggists have commended Benson's
Plaster as a remedy in viii III the public
may have implicit confidence; while, in o
comparative test with other plasters, Ben
sons has received ttty,fVe highest aoards.
Beware of substitutes and cheap limitations.
