THE TREATY FIFTH CUBA

Congress will meet in special session
next week to deal with the Cuban recip-
rocity treaty. Senator Cullom, chair
man Of the Senate committe on foreign
relations, has, 1t is announced, decided
on the procedure to be followed in the
legislation necessary to put into oper-
alton the terms of the treaty. 1t has
been determined that legislative bill
shall be introduced, providing in detail
that the provisions Of the treaty shall
be transferred to the statute books,
Much consideration has been given to
this matter, for it was thought that
the amount of debate that would ensue
might depend in a measure on the form
Of the proposed law. It was suggested
by some that all that was necessary
was to pass joint resolution, drafted
in blanket form, to cover all the details
of the treaty. Another proposition was
to prepare a bill that should specify
in detail everything provided for in the
treaty and to legislate the whole into
law. Senator Cullom was inclined to
favor the joint resolution, thinking that
was the easiest scheme for taking care
of what is generally regarded by the
senators as a mere matter of form.
They still cling to the belief that there
is no real necessity for the house pass
ing on the provisions of the treaty, and
the extra session is really called to
satisfy the element in the house that
held out for the right of that body to
originate legislation affecting the reve-
nues. Chairman Cullom looked up the
presidents in matters of this kind and
found that they were all against the
joint resolution proposition. When re-
ciprocal trade relations were established
by treaty with Canada and the Ha-
waiian Islands the house made binding
the provisions of the treaty by passing
a bill ratifying in detail what had been
agreed to in the treaty. In each case,
however, the treaty was short one,
and the legislative bill went over each
point covered by the instrument. So IL
has been decided to follow custom and
indorse the terms of the Cuban treaty
by regular legislative enactment.
When reciprocity with Cuba is estab-
lished our benevolence and beneficence
towards that country will be even more
conspicuous than they now are. And
the treaty wont hurt us either.

Dear Heart, the time has come when we
must part
Not for a fault on either side
We have drifted through Friendship into
the tide
Of restless, dissatisfied, throhbng stream
That will bear us onward-unable, l deem,
To land on that safe shore again.
I shall miss you, Dear Heart, though l bid
You to go
Yet / would not exchange for ell God
could give .-.
The look, swift and strong, which taught
me to know
That our Friendship was gone-that we
wanted TO live!
Dearest Heart, you'll forgive me for hurting
s You so
When tell you love you! and yet well l
know
That alone, dlsunited, our hearts out of
tune,
Our lives will 60 on, until Death makes
immune
All such horrors! Dear Friend.
And this Is the end.

UNPRIJUDJCED.

An interesting indication of the state
of mind the jury which acquitted Till
man was in is furnished by a letter to
the Spartanburg Journal from w. j.
Risinger, one of the Jurors. He calmly
announces that no one before ever OBJ
jected to the killing of an editor. IT
refer YOU writes Mr. Risinger, ito the
annals of History when you fail to find
a single conviction of any man for
shooting an Editor. The State and
counsel for same was satisfied with the
Vedict, otherwise the State could have
gone to the appeal courts, the Masses
have accepted the verdict as fair, but
seemingly the press wants more blood
which can be found by walking in the
foot prints of N. G. Gonzales. Mr.
Gonzales was an able man, but unfor-
tunately he made a great mistake by
abusing the liberty of his press, the
courts have sustained the defendant by
which all law abiding citizens should
be satisfied"
Mr.. Risinger further shows that he
has no prejudice against the killing of
an editor by saying that if editors are
not satisfied with Tillman's acquittal
they should invite him to entertain
them beyond the Georgia lines, and if
they should prove the unfortunate one
in the affair not to call it murder, but
suicide, by the abuse Of liberty with the
wrong man. Mr.. Risinger is. certainly
generous-minded gentleman of the
old school, and the editor Of the Spar
tanburg Journal has done we'll in con-
cealing his own prejudice in favor of
editors long enough to print Mr.. Risin-
gers kindly communication just as he
wrote it.

RUSSIAN DECREE.

When the Russian government isn't
doing anything else it is issuing DEGREES.
A Russian decree has just been issued,
dealing with the cases of foreigners eX-
PEELED from Russian territory. The
most important of the new regulations
provides that foreigners condemned to
penal servitude or exile are not liable to
expulsion, but foreigners condemned to
other forms of deprivation of freedom
are liable to expulsion upon the ex-
piration of their sentence" Foreigners
liable to expulsion are to be presented
with an intimation to that effect speci-
flying term of grace to be accorded to
them. If any foreigner does not leave
the country voluntarily after receiving
this intimation, he is to be sent to the
border under escort, as will be any for
eigner. who, after having been expelled,
shall return to Russia. Further pro-
visions deal with the cases of foreign
ers compelled to return to Russia by
the refusal of their governments to re-
ceive them, and the additional cases of
foreigners who twice return to Russia
after expulsion. The latter class have
been treated hitherto as vagabonds.
For both classes a special system Of set
tlement has now been instituted by
which they will be permitted to live in
certain districts to be defined at inter-
walls of three years, They must register
themselves in the peasant or artisan
class, will not be allowed to leave the
district to which they have been allot-
ted, or to engage in trade or industry
without the consent of the governor In
five years from the time of their settle
ment they may become naturalized.

A strange case is that of Clarence
Peak, who is under sentence of eigh-
teen years Imprisonment in Tennessee
on a charge of killing a person named
silar Hulin. Peak did murder a man
who was supposed to be Hulin, but his
victim was a wholly different individ-
ral Hulin is alive and well, and has
shown himself in court repeatedly.
Peak never attacked him. The friends
of Peak are trying to get his release be-
cause a mistake was made in the iden-
tity of his victim. But the Tennessee
courts have decided so far that even if
Peak did not slay Hulin. he certainly
killed some one and must serve out his
sentence.

A story Of an author who was COM
PEELED to resort to subterfuge in order
to get his book into public notice is be-
ing told In Paris. Jean Lombard had
fought for many years against poverty
and ill-health, but nevertheless had pro-
duced several novels which were con-
sidered by those who had read them
to be works of genius, though they had
been total failures as salable conmodi-
ties. On his last work he concentrated
all his hopes of recognition, but on
publication the book showed every sign
of going unnoticed. The author, how
ever, hit upon a. unique way of adver-
Using it. He wrote from MarseiIles a
letter signed "An Indignant Republic
can to the authorities of Paris Violent
" censuring the book as dangerous to
public morality and demanding the i'm
prisonment Of the author. When in
cuiries were made the writer and the
author were found to be one and the
same person, but the writer's object was
accomplished.

The talk is that in proportion to pop-
ulatlon there are more old maids In the
Bermudas than in any other part Of the
world. This is true of all classes of the
population, but especially of the oldest
and wealthiest families, who have been
connected with the islands ever since

Company in 1872 Five out of six of the
daughters Of the old planting families

as girls can possibly be. Their failure
to marry is a standing source of Won
der to the whole of the West Indies.

sponsible in part for this state of
things. BY this law provision is made
for the daughters to take shares of a

among the others. Under this law
many a girl of the better class is robbed
of the dowry which is rightfully hers.
Sometimes she will not marry her
sweetheart at the cost of her fortune;
sometimes the mercenary swain will not
marry her il she has nothing to bring
him but herself. 10 ..-ss

Rev. Charles H. Strong, rector of st.

on the parallels of Christ applied to

In discussing the parable Rev. Mr..
Strong, referring to the lawyers ques-
ton. Master, what shall l do to in

to ask; 1t is a very good question for
any man to ask; 1t would be a wise

is such a thing as eternal life, though

thing to have asked What shall l do
to become a better MANI and to have
left the question of eternal life in the
hands of Almighty God.

we should do in this life, for any man
than tries to do his best in this world
can afford to leave the question of
eternal life with God"

evolution of man with regard to hu-
manity has been to bring the race out
of distress. He referred to some of the
ills which men suffered in former ages,
but said that the ills of modern days
was that of industrial conditions; that
humanity is suffering from an indus
trial tyranny.
Il sometimes wonder" said Mr..
Strong, how it is possible for men to
be Indifferent to the sufferings of their
fellow men. Think of some of the rail-
roads that turn out of their employ
ment men who are past 40 years old;
think of Rockefeller and the heads of
some of the other big trusts, who call
themselves Christians. and then of the
businesses they have destroyed, the
men thrown out of work, the sufferings
Of the widows and orphans as a result;
l sometimes wonder how they can rest
if they think of the devastation that
has marked the path of their success"
Mr.. Strong referred TO the "specula-
tive philanthropist," and to the fire
side philosopher" the latter of whom
thinks that all the ills of men can be
cured by legislation. What is need
ed" he said, rs not change of laws,
but a change of men. The true hui
manitarian is the man who knows what
suffering is"
