THE ISLE OF PINES TROUBLE.

Are we going to have a little war
with Cuba? There seems to be a
chance for it over the question of the
ownership of the Isle of Pines The
Cubans are trying to collect taxes
there. There are fully 800 American
residents on the island, and they own
more than two-thirds of the property.
Before they went there and invested
money they inquired at the Depart
nlent of State as to the ownership of
the island, and were assured that II
was American territory. and that they
would be protected in all, their rights
as American citizens on American
soil.
If this is the situation 1t seems
strange that President Palma should
be trying to collect taxes in the Isle
of Pines. He ought to know it if the
island is American territory. The is
sue which has been raised, however,
win result in bringing about an I'M
derstanding doubtless very soon.
1t is known of course that the Gu
bans do not take kindly to the idea
of surrendering any territory to the
United States, but they ought to be
glad to make some sort of acknowl-
edgment for the assistance the Unit
ed States gave them I'm securing their
freedom from the yoke of Spain. If
the United States want the Isle of
Pines, and it seems they do. there
ought to be no hesitation on the part
Of Cuba TO letting them have It.

Mr.. Pinchpenny stepped aboard the

PLAGUE REPORTS ALARMING.

The plague situation at Mazatlan
does not improve. New cases of 1t
| are occurring all the time, and all who
can get away from the city are leav-
ing.
There is fear of the disease spread
ing in this country. A conference to
consider the danger from it was held
in Washington on Monday, at which
Surgeon General Wyman presided. At
that conference it was stated that
there had been ninety-three cases in
San Francisco, eighty-seven of them
in Chinatown, and that a number of
dead rats had been found there within
| a short period, half of which were in
fected with the plague.
The result of the conference was a de-
cision to urge upon the health author-
ties of San Francisco and of California
to make every possible effort to stamp
out the disease. 1t is probable that
if the situation in San Francisco is
| neglected much longer the plague will
| find its way gradually throughout the
country Now is the time to fight it,
while it is confined within a small
area.
OF course the health authorities of
the United States have known of the
| existence of the plague in San Fran
cisco for months. AS far back as last
August, when there was a report of
several cases there, a feeling prevail
ed throughout the country that ener-
getic and intelligent measures ought
to be taken against the disease, but
the health authorities of California
seemed to doubt the disease was the
plague. II we are not mistaken a re-
port was given out that 1t was not
the plague at sll. If they had that
idea at Manhattan when the disease
made it's appearance there they haven't
it now. The rapidity with which people
who are attacked by it die. leaves no
doubt that it is the plague. and of the
most deadly kind.
If the health authorities at Washing
ton let the matter drift along with the
hope that the disease will disappear
without any effort being made to check
1t they may have occasion to bitterly
regret their course. The government
shouldn't spare any expense in fight
ing the disease in San Francisco or
any other place at which it may ap-
pear in this country.

The gist of the sermon of the Rev.
DR.. Richard Harcourt of Reading, Pa,
on last Sunday. was that the people
had a right to take coal if they We're
not able to buy it. That is queer doc
trine to hear from a pulpit. If prop
erty rights in coal are not bound to
be respected. where is the line to be
drawn? Is not bread as great neces-
sity of life as fuel? And if one may
take" Tor steaD coal as a matter of
necessity, may not bread. and meat,
and clothing, and shoes be taken in
the same way without violating the
moral law? This coal famine has
brought out some peculiar propositions
from pulpit, press and politicians.
Among the latter, for instance. is Rep
resentative Connolly, of the Delaware
Legislature, who wants a bill passed
empowering the Board of Health of the
state to seize coal in transit, whenever
the price goes ''unreasonably high"
and sell 1t to the people at reasonable
prices"

The full dress suit is again agitating
the politicians of Texas. 1t will be
recalled that Congressman, now Sena-
tor Bailey of the Lone Star State, some
time ago stirred UP Washington by the
vehemence with which he refused to
wear full dress suit at some sort of
reception to which he had been invited.
1t was thought that Texas had grown
up to the dress suit by this time. But
such seems not to be the case. For
the inaugural ball in Austin the other
night the order had been given to ad-
nit no one who was not in full dress.
The members of the Legislature all
wanted to attend, but three-fourths of
them had never worn that sort of toys.
and many of them would not have
dared to return to their constituencies
if they had donned swallow-tails: hence
there were many heart-burnings and
much dissatisfaction. One member de-
clared it to be his purpose to introduce
into the House bill governing the sort
of clothes that might be worn at pub
lie functions.

An exceptional case of heart and
lung surgery was performed in st.
Louis the other day. A young man who
attempted suicide succeeded in inflict-
ing a wound on both his heart and his
left lung. but neither was sufficient to
kill him. The physicians took three
stitches in the heart to close that
wound, and cut a piece an inch and a
half square out of the lung, and tied
that organ up with a silk cord. At
last advices the patient gave every in
dication Of a speedy recovery.

The Chicago Chronicle has an inter-
esting story, by way of both Washing
ton and Boston, as to why the negro
w. H. Lewis was appointed an assist
ant district attorney at Boston Ac-
cording to this story, no question of
policy was involved. 1t is explained
that Lewis is a football player of some
prowess. He had been the center
rush" for Harvard. He was about to
leave the neighborhood. Harvard felt
that her football team could not spare
him. He is a lawyer and had asked
for employment in the district attor-
ney's office. He failed to get the Job,
and was on the point of going to some
other city. In this emergency, and to
save Lewis to the football team, Har-
ward applied to Senators Hoar and
Lodge to use their influence in getting
him local federal job. They applied
to the President, and in the interest
of football he directed that the new
office of assistant district attorney be
created and that Lewis be appointed
TO it. THAT is the entire story" saws
the Chronicle. "In the interest OF good
administration in the interests of civil
service reform and of common de-
cency in making federal appointments.
does this help the case?"

Col. Alexander X. Mcclure of Phil
adelphia has prepared a bill, which is
to be introduced into the Pennsylvania
Legislature at an early day by Repre-
sentative Cooper of Delaware county,
providing for the erection of a SPLEEN
did equestrian statue of Gen. Robert
E. Lee on the Gettysburg battlefield.
The bill contemplates the cooperation
of the state of Virginia in the work,
and provides an appropriation of $780,
000- The statue is to be of bronze and
the site for it's erection will be some
point on Seminary Hill. 1t is provided
that Virginia shall appropriate $50, 900.
The work is to be under direction of a
joint commission to consist of the gov
errors and adjutant generals of the
two states, and several veteran SOL
diers. The idea is a graceful one. and
the cooperation of Pennsylvania and
Virginia in carrying it out would be a
mark of restored cordial relations.

Indigestion is often caused by over
eating. An eminent authority says
the harm done thus exceeds that from
the excessive use of alcohol. Eat all
the good food you want but don t over
load the stomach. A weak stomach
may refuse to digest what you eat.
Then you need a good digestant like
Kodol, which digests your food with
out the stomach's aid. This rest and
the wholesome tonics Kodol contains
soon restore health. Dieting unneces-
