A Fake, Sure Enough.

The Denver Post reports that
Laughing Dick" Carey, the last
of the notorious Hole-in the Wall
gang of cattle rustlers. has been
located in northern Colorado and
is now being pursued through
Saratoga, Wyo. Last "Wednesday.
just twelve hours ahead of his pur-
suers, and bis capture is daily ex-
pected. Dick Carey was Tor years
a member of the famous Butch
Cassidy gang of outlaws. and part
lei of Otto Chenoworth, the Wv
oming bandit and horse-thies.
Carey was afterwards captured by
Johnston county officers, near
Wolton, Wyo., but overpowered
his guard and escaped. Wyoming
officers are inclined to the belief
that the story of the Carey's pres
ence IN Wyoming is a fake.-En.

Ki-Ram and the Cocktails.

This droll refrain to George
AIDES quaint song of the cocktail
which Frank Moulan has popular
lied in .'The Sultan of Sulu" has
caught the popular fancy. 1t is
not due so much to the music that
goes with the song as to the gen
ial fun which the little comedian
extracts from the graphic lines of
the lyric.
American humor is abundant in
grotesque and grandiloquent apos-
torphes to different kinds of drink,
but George AIDES treatment of the
familiar coctail in "The Sultan of
Sulu" approaches the limit in the
way of stage wit. Mr.. AIDE 'pass-
ed up" all the threadbare subjects,
and for the first time has given
this essentially characteristic Man
haitian decoction a niche in poesy
with the Brown October Ales"
and the trimming stems.
Sultan XII Ram, the little Malay
potentate of Sulu, greets the in
sidious cocktail as n of the
many blessings that follow the
flag. The naive delight of the
sultan is joyously pictured by Mr..
Moulan, who describes the cock
tail as follows:
The colonel told me
That the-constitution
And the cocktail
Follow the flag.
He gave me
An amber-colored beverage
With a ruguish little cherry

Our Washington Letter.

WAsmN0roN, d. c. April 2, 1903.
In spite OF the fact that the re.
port of General Nelson A. Miles
was made public during the earlier
part OF the week, the comment on
its disclosures seems TO have grown
in direct proportion TO the mum
Der of days which have inter
vened since the War Department
saw ft to allow its publication.
Your correspondent called at the
Department to see the original
document, but was refused permis
sion, with the assertion that the
country was already familiar with
all its details through its dissent
natioe in the press. He found how
ever, that after weeks of suppress
sion, the War Department has given
out only parts of the report. When
it is recalled that General Miles was
ordered by Secretary Root and
President Roosevelt to proceed to
the Philippines and report in writ
ing on conditions as he found them,
the present action OF Root is indefen-
sible, and, according to the tencts
Of honesty held by number of pro.
minent men who have been ques-
TONED on the subject, contemplate.
What else can be thought Of a
Secretary who orders the highest
Army officer to perform inspection
duty, and then suppresses the re-
port as 'confdential2'' After that.

from souces he dared not refuse, he
gives out agarbled version, prefaced
by the statement that Miles, judg-
ments were worthless, practically
giving the lie direct to an eye-wit-
ness o. conditions which grew out
of a regime equalled only by the
cuerlties in Cuba, which the Span
J ish War was waged to redress.

When President Roosevelt was
about to leave on his western trip
he was called on by delegation OF
the prominent members of his party
and was compelled to revise his tar
iff and trust busting" speeches to
be delivered on the trip, or take the
consequence of defeat or attempt at
defeat in the next republican nation
al convention. The revision was
made at their dictation, and, mas
much as he had not time TO rewrite
all his speeches he used some of the
warmed-over speeches that were sat
isfactory to the tariff barons. The
speech that he delivered at Minnea-
polls on April 4, is almost verbatim
the speech delivered by Secretary
of War Root at Cooper Union, New
York, last October. If any man
doubts it let him get them and make
the comparison. This simply shows
how the Presidents being dominat
ed by the trust interest of the coun
try and what a hollow mockery is al
this hue and cry about busting tht
trusts.

Four executive departments and

somu 80 900 taken from Charles 4.
Neeley, when he was arrested In
connection with the alleged postal
irregularities in Cuba Theamount
81, 23Il8 10 be exuct, now rests in the
safe Of Postmaster General Payne.
How it got there is long story but
il can bo briefly started for your
readers IN this way: Nceley was
arrested by the Chief OF Police OF
Rochester, N. ", and held there
awaiting the arrival Of postoiiice in
spectors who were to take Neeley
10 the scene Of his trial. Neeley
holds the receipt Of the Rochester
Chief for the money taken from
him at the time OF the arrest. The
postofiice inspector receipted to
the Rochester man, and General
Wood receipted to the inspector
when the money was taken TO Cuba
to be used as evidence. II then
went to Secretary Root on a receipt.
and he in turn accepted one FROM
Postmaster General Payne, Neeley
was released from custody under
President Palma S amnesty act, and
was not convicted by the Cuban
courts Of the theft Of this money.
He called on the Chief Of Police for
the money and was referred, through
the successive steps OF the chain to
the War Department, and now that
the Postofiice Department has the
custody OF the sum it Is assumed
that the next demand will be made
upon that Department The flaw in
the chain seems to come in the action
of General Wood IN not turning the
sum over TO the Cuban treasury as
q part Of the loot recovered from the
postal frauds, but it will be remem-

Suggestions for the
POSf-Lenten Party.

II wish that some of the Birmingham
hostesses who contemplate giving card
parties would select some of the exquisite
water colors in the collection now being
displayed at the Womans exchange"
said an artistic girl yesterday as she sat
at one of the spotless tables in the ex-
change cafe enjoying her tomato with
mayonnaise," and later ordered the white
capped maid to bring her some char
lotte."
And she glanced admiringly at the
group of lovely water colors displayed
artistically against a green background.
what a lovely prize that little street
scene in London would make" she went
on; 'or the one with the Venetian
sunset And | adore those lovely English
landscapes. 1t would be really difficult
to select one that one would be willing
to give as a card prize, because they are
too lovely to give away. But such beau
tiful prizes are given now that their selec-
ton is even more important than the de-
tails of the luncheon"
~ on might not get the prize" laughed
the woman, who looked relieved at the
suggestion made for prizes for her Easter
party, and then some one making the
innocent remark that these pictures would
make such "toney wedding presents" the
artistic girl blushed rosy red. and con-
vinced every one that her engagement
was among the many that are just now
''unannounced."

LADY ROSES DAUGHTER
AND OTHER BOOKS

do so-that, I submit, should only have
been an additional pleasure to them, and
no diseredit to me-"
The story is intensely dramatic and
gives a brilliant picture of English soei-
ETY. of today. 1t seems a matter of rather
satisfied comment on the part of the crit
les of Robert Elsmere" that in Lady
Roses Daughter" no religious views Of
the author creep in, and that II is in no
sense a problem story But the develop
ment of the complex character OF the fas-
einating Julie requires as mastery a
mind as that which unfolded the relig-
ious thought of the Elsemeres. It is hard
ly fitting that the critics should under
take to congratulate the author upon the
fact that In Lady Roses daughter" she
has forgotten to preach or teach" Mrs
Ward adopts only new avenue for her
teaching, and takes for her text the
most vivid oharacter-studies in modern
fiction
Who can say that study of heredity
is not a theme for the teacher, more es-
peeially so with the background that
blends with the personality of Julie?
she has made Julie lie Breton as sub
stantial as, and much more movable
than The women of real life" says a re-
cent critic. las in real life, too, one gets
acquainted with her little by little. The
presentation of her physical aspect ano
customary moods is only the beginning
for on a hundred pages are revealed dis
tinctive traits, one by one-and they all
harmonic. all consist. in an actual i'm
perfection which is in itself artistic
perfection, or something very like"
