Queer San Bernard,no Yarn.

SAN BERNARDINO, Sept. 16.-News
comes. from San Jacinto of visit there
of two Deputy United States Marshals
on the trail of a woman who is alleged
to have escaped from the leper settle
ment at Honolulu.
Some weeks ago there arrived at San
Jacinto couple named McQuade. The
man was an expert carpenter and
found considerable work. They rented
an attractive cottage in the suburbs,
made many friends, though the wife
never presented herself before COM
pany without being heavily yelled.
McQuade stated that she was troubled
with a painful rash which exposure to
the air would aggravate.
They disappeared the night before
the officers arrived, and the latter ex-
planned that the couple had married in
Chicago and gone to Honolulu, where
she taught native children, coming IN
contact with the lower classes, con-
tracing leprosy. She was removed to
the leper settlement, the officials re-
fusing the husband permission to re-
turn with her to this country.
McQuade effected his wife's escape,
believing a change of climate would
result in her complete recovery. In
some way they got wind of the intend
ed visit of the officers to San Jacinto
and escaped and have not since been
located

As TO SMALL FARMERS.

The Bulletin, after placing every OBJ
struction it's feeble wit could devise in
the way of the small farmer movement,
breaks out in this way:
If the small farm promoters of Ha-
wall mean business, if they are talk
ing to any other purpose than to listen
to the echoes of their own voice, the
ways and means as regards available
transportation are at their disposal.
If agricultural land in Hawaii can be
obtained with as little difficulty as the
lands open to these mainland "home-
seekers under American laws, there
is not the slightest question that this
Territory can secure the migratory
pioneer farmer who has built up the
great empire of the West and still
seeks more fields to conquer.
There is ample opportunity for those
claiming to be the small farm friend
to prove their assertion, and a spirit
of sincerity in their declaration, a sim
cerity established by deeds rather than
words, will secure all the moral sup
port and enthusiasm desired. VIII
they make good?
There would be no trouble in getting
colonists but for the fact that the Bull
letins candidate was made Land Com
missioner and he, with the appreciation
and support of that paper, has poured
as much cold water as possible upon
the small farmer movement. Witness
his ancient coffee circular with its inti-
nation that nothing but coffee can be
had as a bye-crop and that this doesn't
pay, sent to people who would like to
have known about dairy products.
pineapples, tobacco. vanilla and sisal.
Given an American as Land Commits
sioner-one who pays no attention to
the Bulletins advice-and Hawaii will
soon get results; but, unless the Board
of Agriculture can do something in
spite of the Commissioner. we look for
no great influx until change of local
land administration comes or the coun-
ty takes up the question of getting set
tiers.

WHAT IS PAIN BALM?

Chamberlain's Pain Balm is a Iini-
ment and, while adapted to all the or
binary uses of a liniment. has qualities
which distinguish it from other reme-
dies of this class. Pain Balm is es-
pecially beneficial for rheumatism.
Thousands of cases can be cited in
which It has effected a cure when the
sufferer had previously tried the best
medical service without securing re-
lief. Pain Balm is positively guaran-
teed to give relief in the most severe
cases of chronic or acute rheumatism.
Pain Balm heals bruises, burns and
scalds in less time than any other
treatment. 1t is "antiseptic'' that Is,
is prevents putrefaction and by so do
ing. generally prevents an unsightly
scar remaining after the injury is heal
ed. For lame back, lumbago and neu-
ralgia, Pain Balm has no equal. 1t
has the quality of getting to the right
spot No sufferer from these distress
ing affections should defer a trial of
this remedy. One application gives re-
lief. Try it. Benson, Smith & Co.,
Ltd, Wholesale Agents sell 1t.

American Idea of Families.

But there is no reason to doubt the
efhcacy of this glorification of large
families as popularity breeder. We
do not think that Mr.. Roosevelt has
pleased many American women by his
talk which has been published concern
ing race suicide We are inclined
to think that Mr.. Roosevelt is not SO
much of hero in the eyes of the
women of the country as he is in the
eyes of many young men.
The mother of four or FIVE children.
who finds all her resources, mental and
physical, heavily taxed by the care of
raising" them, cannot find anything
to admire in the admonition that she
ought to have been the mother of
twelve or more. 1t does not follow be-
cause a woman has been the mother of
fifteen or twenty children that she has
been able to do her duty to them or
that the world is better off because of
her fecundity.
Napoleon Bonaparte could demand
large families of his French adorers.
He had a good reason for telling the
French women of his day that they
must produce many children. He
needed them in his business-on the
battlefield
No father and mother ought to have
more children than they can take care
of, educate and make good citizens of.
This is understood by intelligent and
reputable people, and it may be called
the American idea. It is the charac-
ter which is borne by the children you
bring forth and not the number of
them which ought to be the main con-
sideration. There is nothing glorious
in fatherhood or motherhood if the chill
dren are degenerates, or if they are left
to be cared for by rangers.-Hartford
Times.

TROPICAL PRODUCTS.

The taste Of the people of the United
States for tropical products seems to
be increasing at a very rapid rate
The Department of Commerce and La
Dor, through its Bureau of Statistics,
reports the value of the tropical and
United States in the past year as over
400 million dollars. In 1895 the value
Of this class Of merchandise imported
was only 300 million dollars; in 1875,
200 millions, and in 1870. 40 millions.
Thus, the value of the tropical pro-
ducts brought into the country in the
year just ended was about three times
as much as in 1870. twice as much as
in 1875, and one-third more than in
1895.
Even these figures do not show the
| real increase, because of the great re-
| duction in prices of many of the arti-
cles forming this huge total The val
Ne of the sugar Of tropical production
brought into the country in the past
lars, as against 20 million dollars in
1870; but the number of pounds brought
in from the Tropics last year was
more than four times as much as in
1870. The total number of pounds of
tropical sugar brought into the coun-
try last year was over 5 billions, in
Guiding that from Hawaii and Porto
Rico, while the number of pounds i'm
ported from the Tropics in 1870 was
less than a billion and a quarter.
The value of the coffee brought in
last year was 90 million dollars, as
against "a millions in 1870, yet the
quantity last year was 923 million
pounds, as against 235 million pounds
in 1870.
The one-half million pounds of silk
brought in in 1870 was valued at three
million dollars, while the Is million
pounds brought in last year were val
ued at about so million dollars.
The 49 million pounds of rice
brought in in 1870 was valued at one
million dollars, while four times that
valued at three million dollars.
The AZ million pounds of tea brought !
in in 1870 was valued at nearly IA mil |
lion dollars, while the 10s million
pounds brought in last year was valued |
at less than 16 millions.
The average cost per pound of the |
sugar brought into the country in
1870 was about five cents, while the |
average cost last year, including that
brought from Hawaii and Porto Rico, |
was about two cents per pound. In
India rubber, however, conditions are
reversed, the average cost per pound
of the ten million pounds brought in in
1870 being about Sc cents per pound,
while that of the 55 million pounds
brought in last year was over So cents
per pound.
The tropical islands of the United
States contributed nearly so million
dollars worth of the 400 million dol
lars value of tropical products brought
into the country last year. Over 26
million dollars of this was from Ha-
wall, more than II million dollars
worth from Porto Rico and more than
IL million dollars worth from the
In 1896 they contributed
10 million dollars worth to the trop-
ical requirements of the country.

Three of the big express companies
doing business almost extensive
with the whole United States have
taken a new step in the bonding of
their employees by establishing bond
ing departments and carrying their
own risks. The scheme practically
amounts to the formation by each
express company of a surety bond
company of it's own, issuing bonds
only to its own people. but charging
them the regular premium rates.
The revenues from the bonding depart
ment will be converted into trust
and, out of which the company will
recoup itself for losses by dishonesty,
and the premium rate raised or lower
ed as the revenues leave surplus or
deficit. The Significance of this de.
parture is the example it will set for
our public corporations. II a private
corporation like an express company
can do its own guaranty bond bust
ness. so can our national, state and
local governments-in fact, as long as
they are coming to pay all the prem
iums out Of the public treasury it
should be more profitable to keep this
money as a trust fund or self -indemni.
fication than to turn it over to specu.

will utilize every occasion to contest
losses when they do occur. The bond
ing department Of the state and mu-
nicipal government is already in pros.
