The chemical nnth Hon.n.

DR.. c ". Roberts of Scranton,
who proposes building a large house
here for the purpose Of chemical
baths. has submitted plans for the
edifice to a builder in town. The
first story is Of blue stone and the
second frame. II was expected that
it would cost about sl6, 900 but the
plans if carried out as designed
will involve considerable more out
lay. At all events it will be a hand
some structure and great orna-
ment to the town aside from the
increased business which will neces-
sarily develop from the project.

The Pennsylvania state college
has sent out bulletin No. IS on
weeds in general and especially on
two new comers in the state. The
summary says: Freedom from
weeds is best had by improving the
soil quality and intensive cultivation
and that greater care should be ex-
eroised in regard to purity Of farm
seeds and in cutting all roadside,
fence row, and other weeds before
the time Of seeding. The Keeled
garlic and the Southern Seabious
are two weeds new to the state.
They possess qualities which render
them liable TO become serious pests.

fAE WASHINGTON LETTER.

While the democratic wrangiers
are rendiug the air Of the senate
chamber with their denunciations Of
republican policy IN the Philippines
and the house Of representatives is
devoting its labors to the regular
appropriation bills, the republican
senators are quietly and industriously
working out the solution Of the Cuban
reciprocity problem. On Friday The
committee on relations with Cuba
adopted that portion Of the Teller
resolution which calls for an investi-
CATION Of the amount Of Cuban sugar
held by the American Sugar Reiin-
ing company. Senators Platt, Burn
ham and Teller will conduct the in
vestigation which, in view Of the
fact that most of the desired informa-
tion is in the possession of the war
department, will not, in the judg-
ment Of Senator Platt, occupy but
short period. In the meantime the
committee will devote its attention
to framing a straight reciprocity bill
as a substitute for the measure passed
by the house.

James T. Smith of Denver, labor
commissioner for the state of Colo
RADIO, writes:
"The practical effect of woman
suffrage in Colorado during the
eight years that it has been in oper-
alton here has in my Judgment been
beneficial in every way. The moral
tone OF political conventions has
been improved and women have
been enabled to command more
consideration and respect than for
merly The vast majority Of the
membership Of trades unions in
this state were in favor Of extend
ing suffrage to women. It was
largely through their efforts that
the amendment was submitted in
1898.
II do not think there is much
opposition now TO women in politics.
Most of the voters who were oppos-
cd to woman suffrage when the is
sue was burning one in Colorado
are ready now to admit that their
prediction Of the dire disaster that
would follow has not been fulfilled. :"
