The Porto Rican smuggling scandal has taken on & much more serious phase by the declaration of the officials of the department of Justice that ''the action relative to the dismissal of pro ceedings in these cases was upon the orders Of the cabinet and that they came from the president himself" The above quotation is from the Washing ton Star, which is well known to be tbe administration organ, and what it says must be taken as coming with au- thority. This acknowledgeme that President Roosevelt ordered the pro ceedings against the army and navy officers dismissed is an extraordinary usurpation of power unwarranted by the constitution. The president has the power to grant pardons, but the power to compromise felonies before conviction if allowed to pass without serious objection might in time grow to be prerogattve of the executive which would, in the hands of a tyrant, allow his partisans to commit any crime and no proceedings at law to be taken against them. The laws must be obeyed by the president and the peo- pie alike or in time despotism and even anarchy might overthrow all the safe guards granted by the bill of rights. The president has certain powers grant cd his office by the constitution, and they are very great, but the judge and jury are becoming alarmed at Roose- welt.

HEARD IN PASSING

An Enghshman has invented a bird balloon with which he expects to attain speed of 15O miles an hour. Oh, Joy! This will take us home so quickly we shall have more time to remain at the ofice.-New York Telegram.
 The rejection of Senator Tracy's one sided labor incorporation bill with hap py unanimity in the senate was a very creditable piece of legislation. It rele- gated to deserved olbscur1ty one of the most mischievous measures which has cropped out during the session. Ii contained infinite possibilities for harm and hardly possibility for good. Its defeat was we'll deserved.--NeW Brit ain Herald
 That is, in fact, the very strongest objection to the state police proposi- tion, as 1t has been the strongest one against the Law and Order league, that it steps in and interferes with that ad- ministration of the law which should be the business of the community. If a town or a city will not bestir itself to take care of it's own lawbreakers there is very seldom any gain from forcing it to do so by outside interfer- eflce. That's the Thrasher idea, and the Thrasher idea, 1t is needless to say, is not unanimously admitted to be a success.--NeW London Telegraph.
 Mayor Sullivan of Derby says order will be maintained in that city. He said yesterday if there was any trouble resulting from the attempt to run cleo tric cars from Bridgeport to Derby the HrS x1 YI6 xuR1f16 arrest all offenders. He said any one melting the people to riot or doing any thing to stir up or create trouble would be arrested, and 1t would not make any difference whether he was one of the employees of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Go or a person on the street. The police understood this and they would take in any offenders no matter who they might be. Mayor Sullivan is worthy of commendation.-- Bridgeport Telegram.
 A former soldier of the regular army has gone insane as a result of torture inflicted upon him by Moros in the Phil ippine islands, while he was prisoner in their hands. From the unhappy mans rawlings it is assumed that he had endured what is known as the rat punishment. This consists of placing the victim in small dungeon and turning dozens of hungry rats loose upon him. Will Herbert Welsh and the rest of the anti-imperialists rise up to express their condemnation. Ger tainly not. There Is more rejoicing in the antd-imperialist camp over the con- viction of one American solder than in the rescue of ninety and nine from death in it's most unnameable forms.

HANDY JOBS FOR NAMED.
Thoughtful Corporation at EImira, N.
 Y.. Provides for Injured N EmpIOyes.

up in my city" said ex-Senator J. Sloat Fassett, of Elmira, to New York Times writer, i've have corpo- ration more thoughtful of it's employ es than are most corporations. Fre- quently one of them gets a, hand or an arm taken off, but instead of casting the men so maimed adrift the corpora tion provides places for them where men with but one hand can work satis- factorily. The one-armed men soon learn to profit to a certain extent by their misfortune. The men with right hands pair off with the men with left hands and in that way one pair of gloves, mittens, cuffs and such things does for both.
 '.But more practicable even than that is the sight of two such men at the theater. A man with a right hand left sits next to man with left hand also left and when anything p1eases them they turn instinctively toward each other, clap their remaining hands together and contribute more than would seem possible to the applause" :"

GLOW worms for Lrenr.

Here is a curious discovery in rt- gard to glow worms which has been made by Frenchman. He caught several of them and fed them for 8 few days, after which he let them loose in his garden. When night came he invited some of his friends, and vastly surprised they were when they saw his garden illuminated in various colors. They could not ac- count for 1t until he caught few glow worms and showed them that from one came red light, from another a blue light, from a third a yellow light, and so on. How he produced such a wonderful result no one knows, for, while he admits that the various lights are the direct result of the food which he supplied to the worms, he will not tell what he gave them to eat. He considers his dis covery of great importance, and claims that it can be used to advan- tage in optical telegraphy and for fishing at night.-Rrook1yn Eagle.

AND THE FROG CAME BACK.
Was Taken Far from His FavorIte Spring House, Hut They CouIdn't
 Lose Him.

Nearly every living thing has 8 local habitation and abiding place which 1t regards as it's home. Even frogs have an attachment for particular places in which to spend their leisure hours. About three years ago Pennsylvania farmer named Anderson found large frog in front of the spring house, and when the miIknaid opened the door to put her pail of milk in the spring the frog hopped in behind her. "Goodness!' said the maid, s'but you're a big fellow"
 It was 8 big fellow. From his nose to the ends of his extended legs the frog measured IS inches. It hopped out of reach of the girls hand and par tia11y buried itself in bed of clay in the darkest corner of the spring house. There, in stnpor, neither eating nor drinking, it remained until the spring. Then it departed.
 Each autumn since them the frog has appeared at the first sign of frost and made his winter bed in the spring house. This year he came as usual. Rut the farmer desired to make an ex- periment on him. He was awakened, lifted from his warm clay nest, placed ui a wagon and carried to a place a mile down the road. There he was left.
 Before evening he was back again. The milkmaid found him at sunset Eeated before the spring house door, waiting patiently to be let in.

Tn speaking of the condition of th,

Tn speaking Of the condition of the country and che outlook for the sum mer, Banker Clews says that the ef- feet of an enormous immigration must also be considered. In April over 12s,000 immigrants landed upon these shores seeking work and advancement This was the highest month on record, and 1t seems quite likely that the cur rent fiscal year in this respect will surpass all records, even that of 1882, when the arrivals were nearly S00000. By this means we may partially relieve the scarcity of labor, as well as in crease the demand for home products and delay the approach of overproduc- tionJ Whatever the political or social effect of this phenomenal influx may be, it is certainly an economic advan- tage, for there Is plenty of work to be done, and the more individuals there are to feed, clothe and house the better for industry at large. The other draw backs to this nov venie1lt must be faced and solved as separate issues.

 There are three kinds of money in use in Havana, Spa nish gold, Spanish silver, and American. All American currency, silver, paper, copper and golds is rated as gold. Prices are given in Spanish silver first, then in spanisb gold and finally in American. Every merchant expects to be beaten down in the price of his wares, and he is amazed if d purchaser pays the first asking price Withottt complaint.
 In Chicopee Falls, Mass, is q. colony of Scotch people. They have worked on ''putters'' and drivers" since they were children. They came from Scot land to work in the big golf stick fac tories of Chicopee Falls, for this is where most of the golf sticks are made. It is very natural that this Scottish colony of workers should be the hands" of the factory; for you know that the game of golf is of Scot tish origin. The sticks are made of the best of hickory and the whole country Is searched for it.
 Now that the hanson has almost en- tirely displaced the close cab in their city, Londoners are beginning to real- lze that for some persons and under some conditions the hansom is both in- convenient and risky.

THE WEDDING INVITATION.
How g Man Feels when He Gets One and His Efforts at Present
 Buying.

A wedding invitation is practically an admission ticket, costing $2o, to the church service; reception at the house afterward, extra; cards to the at home. more extra, says the Insurance Press.
 When man gets an invitation now. adays he feels as he does when he has been served with a subpoena. He sput- ters about the idiocy of marriage in general, and wonders why in thunder, or somewhere else where thunder is unknown, those little fools didn't just stand up and get married and get it over with. Then when he calms down he is inveigled into making an appoint ment with his wife at some jewellers. There. he is met with q bewfId ering arr ray of silver trowels, meat saws, and miniature pitchforks, which his learned wife explains to him are fish knives, lettuce servers, and berry forks, respectively.
 Then, as his eyes wander about the store, he spies a golden ball, perforated with fancy holes, and he ventures the facetious remark to his wife that they might take time by the fore1ock and send that baby's rattle. Which is me t by the chilling rejoinder that that is a tea ball, and 1t is just the very thing. And so the man hands over the neces- sary and his wife directs where the golden tea ball shall be sent.
 The feelings of a strong, healthy man being required to attach his card to dinky tea ball and send it to a young couple as mark of his good wishes fail either of expression or de- SrriYa%iOy

Manager Sewel is quoted as saying that the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Go cannot afford to grant the demands made by the Bridgeport strik- CTS. He is also quoted as saying that the company would spend $1O0,00O to break the strike in this city. Now wouldn't it be better to use part of the S1Oo,O0o in paying men wages high enough to live on, rather than keep up a prolonged struggle and injure not only the company's business but the affairs of everyone who has a dollar invested in any kind of business?

 Yet Men Drink It.

A molecule of alcohol is composed Of two atoms of carbon, six of hydrogen and one of oxygen; so synthetical al- Doho1 is obtained by uniting these atoms accordingly. For long time 1t has been known that by direct com bination of carbon and hydrogen in the electric arc, acetylene can be obtained. Sufficient hydrogen must be added to the acetylene to produce ethylene, a constituent of Illuminating gas. In combining water with the ethylene al- cohol is obtained. Thus, alcohol is pro- duced in France without the employ ment of vegetable matter.

Tn a strong plea for the penstoning of old people, Edward Everett Hale in the Cosmopolitan speaks as follows: Simply speaking, the payment of an old-age pension, say of hundred dol lars each to every citizen, male or fe- male, who has passed the age of 70, does not involve q heavy burden to the state. Let us now consider for 6 moment the advantages which the state, as an organization, would re- eeive from such a system. As matters stand, the managers of asylums, Wheth- CT for the poor, or perhaps for the blind, or the insane, or other inyalids, are always at their wits ends to know what they shall do with the aged peo- pie who are crowded upon them. The almshouses of towns and counties are filled in the same way. Now, all these old people are better cared for in the homes of old neighbors, or old friends, very possibly of sons, or of daughters, who would receive them and take charge of them shiImanely if they could receive little ready money for the ex- tra expense. As society organizes it. self, a very little money goes a great way in the average household of an American. The moment it appears that a grandfather or a grandmother has $100 year to his good, that mo M
 ment we shall find that the burden thrown upon the state and town in their asylums is reduced by larger proportion than by the charge made By the pensions upon the treasury. Thus the pension system has the great

George was caught mapping. A pair of soft little hands covered his eyes and sweet voice commanded: Guess who it is"
 Nothing very dreadful for George in this, you think, but then you don't know that George has two sweethearts and for the life of him couldn't decide whose voice it was, which made it a very embarrassing situation for him. A wrong guess would lead to complica,- tions awful to think of. But happy thought inspired George and he an nounced:
 "It's the dearest, sweetest little girl in all the world"
 "Oh, you lovely boy!" gurgled the satisfied one as she removed her hands.
 And now George thinks of applying for diplomatic post, feeling that his talents would be wasted in any other field.
