MILES SHOWS HIS GREATNESS.

Many Republican journals continue
to denOunce General Miles because OF
his recent report on conditions as he
found them in the Philippines, some
OF them going SO far as to say that he
is ar intriguing politician actuated
by malice. who ought to be court-mar-
tailed. General Miles found that atroci
ties had been committed upon Filipi-
nos by order of certain American off.
GERS and said so. giving detailed facts.
He found that grossest had been COM
mitted in the purchase and sale of sup
plies for the Government. and exposed
the same, as he did General Egan's
''embalmed beef" He found that the
war was not yet ended by good deal.
and plainly stated that our Govern
mcnt had a difficult task before ii to
'pacify the natives. He made some
statesmanlike, patriotic Tec0umen Ia
lions which have been and will be is
norcd by the Secretary Of War. who
also 'pigaOnholed" the report for near
ly three months, and the public to
this date have had only an emasCu-
lated copy Of it Moreover. when re
ceiyed at Washington, it vas handed
around for the mirth and laughter of
every petty clerk in the war Office.
The effort has been made to prove
that General Miles tried TO make it
appear that all American officers ana
soldiers are cruel and brutal. but this
is his language to the Army and Navy
Journal, with reference to the report:
at is idle to assume that campaign
ing in the Philippines has conditions
that warrant resort to medieval cru
city, and that such departures as have
existed should be overlooked and con-
doned
1T is gratifying that the serious
Offenses have not been committed by
the soldiers unless tFo- were under
the direct orders of certain officers,
who were responsible Soldiers have
withheld fire when ordered to shoot
prisoners, protested against acts OF
cruelty, and written to relatives at
home urging them to take action to
put a stop to those crimes. It will
never be one of the glories Of the
army that such deeds, committed by
whatever authority, are abhorent &c
the American soldier. The officers who
are responsible. using chiefly cru9l
Macabebes, do not by any means con
stitute the American army, and there
must be a very unmistakeable line
drawn between the great body Of hon
cradle and faithful officers and brave
soldiers whose records have been con
mendable, and those, of whatever sta
ton. whose acts have received, ant
should receive. the earnest condemna
ton of all honorable men"
General Miles has only few more
months to serve, when, according t.
law, he must be retired. His long
brave. and honorable service to hi
country is part of it's history and viii
shortly his name through generations
while the names of his traducers ant
those now high in Office, like Secre
tary Root, who have in every way en-
deavored to humiliate him, will b.
execrated or forgotten.-S. F. Star.

The Penn's Grove record., 1903-03-27

Every college community is encom-
passed by superstitiOn-myths and leg
ends of various sorts. Particularly is
this true in regard to sports, but super
stition is more closely interviewer with
football legends and beliefs than with
any other game. 1t is wonderful what
a great difference is made by the pres
ence or absence Of one man in whom
the team has confidence. The teams
playing is toned by his. Then the state
of the weather, the condition of the
field and the place where the game is
played all react on the superstitions of
the men of different teams. The effects
may be unnoticed for a time, but are
non the less real and always to be
reckoned with If it is possible to dis
cover them. Yale luck and the belief
that Dartmouth was uncomfortable
for an eleven anywhere near her own
strength when playing on her own
ground are two examples in point.
Princeton has a superstition, based on
common sense, however, that it is Door
policy to have the same captain through
more than n season. Dreams are
held in high estimation, especially
among the players themselves, and the
difference made by this second sight
in regard to the result Of the contest
appears in the degree Of confidence of
the play. This is well known to
coaches, and some are said to have
sought to strengthen the v OF
their charges by dreaming of the IA
vorable outcome Of the struggle on the
eve of the battle or arranging for one
of the players to do Eo.-Springfield

machinery Can Do No wrong.

The machine by which railway tick
cts are printed gives another very
amusing little show of intelligence, or
what looks to be very like it. Railway
tickets are not, as might be supposed,
printed in large sheets and afterward
cut up. The cardboard is cut into
tickets first and printed one by one af-
terward. The little blank cards are
put in a pile in a kind Of perpendicular
spout, and the machine slips a bit
Of metal underneath the bottom of the
spout and pushes out the lowest ticket
in the pile to be printed and consecu-
lively numbered. ut is Of no use try
ing to print a bad ticket" says the at
tendant. "The machine finds out an
imperfect blank in an instant and fatty
refuses to have anything to do with
it. Look here" He tears off the COR
ner of one of the bits of card and puts
it into the spout with the others, and
you watch to see what happens. One
by one the blank cards are pushed out
to the printing part Of the mechanism
with swiftness and precision, until the
mutilated ticket gets to the bottom
and tries to smuggle through. On the
instant the machine stops dead and
refuses to bulge again until somebody
comes and removes the inposter. Pull
out TIE damaged ticket and the mech
anism will set briskly to work again.

Gentle Game of Basketball.

The most exciting game of basket
ball ever seen at Saginaw, Mich, took
place at the Germania Institute be-
tween the Turner girls physical cul-
ture elias and the girls of the U. X. bas-
ketball team. All the members are So
ciety girls and the contest was for the
championship Of the city. A previous
game broke up in a row and the last
contest was to settle the dispute.
1t was a smuggling match all through,
the legs of two girls were badly injured
and Miss Griggs vas knocked out.
Boomers were torn and hair pulled.
Captain Lou Griggs, of the Turner's,
was guarding Captain Martha Mar
shall, and the latter took objection to
the manners of Miss Griggs and
slapped her face.
Captain Griggs grabbed Miss Mar
shall by the wrists and held her, but
she still had the use of her feet and
kicked Miss Griggs a hard blow in the
stomach, putting her out of the game.
The feeling of about a thousand peo-
pie present was aroused by this action.
and the U. K. team withdrew fighting
for their rights. The score stood fifteen
to two in favor of the Turner girls

Men Crotchety At Breakfast,

IF walters had their way men would
not be permitted in a restaurant before
the dinner hour, OF at least before
LUNCH" said the proprietor of a cafe on
upper Broadway.
why? Simply becauce they are so
cross at breakfast. No, it isn't the
question Of tips altogether, although 1
never saw a waiter refuse a quarter.
But the fact is, men are crochety be-
fore they get their breakfast. If they
have to wait five minutes it seems an
hour to them, and even the morning
paper seems to lose its charms unless
breakfast IS on the table. There is no
meal in the day where the walters get
so many kicks as they do at break
fast, and the men are always more ill
tempered than the women."-New York

Worse Than Wasted.

There is a rather widely diffused be-
lief that women do very amusing
things with telegraph blanks and check
books. But in a story which is here
quoted from the New York World, one
young woman, on one occasion, at
least, displayed in the use of the tele-
graph a more than masculine brevity,
thriftiness and sang froid.
A Detroit young man, who was deep
ly in love with this fair lady, who lived
in another town in Michigan, decided
that the only thing for him was to offer
his hand and heart. So he went to the
telegraph office and sent this message:
"Will you marry me? 1'wenty-word
answer paid for"
An hour later he got his answer:
"You are extravagant. Why pay for
nineteen words too many? No"

eBoohoo, Fcver IN Hawaii.

boohoo" fever has made its appear
ance in Hawaii again, after an absence
or nearly twenty years. Medical men
call 1t the "~dengue" fever, or a mild
form OF Panama fever. 1t is not dan
gerous, only disagreeable, and affects
the white people more than the natives.
IN the olden days it used to be said that
nobody could claim to be a resident of
Hawaii until he had experienced an at
tack of "boohoo." Its symptoms are
somewhat like those of the grip-a
facklng pain in the small Of the back,
nigh fever and pains In all the bones.
It Is accompanied by a rash and lasts
Ior a week OF ten days. Teachers and
pupils In the public schools have sue
cumDed to the disease in large num-
bers, 'and even the doctors have not
been exempt. Another name for the
sickness Is "breakbone" fever, because
the pains and aches in the bones make
the patients feel as if their bones
would break. The name "boohoo" was
given to the fever because those who

cially applicable to medicinal agents and
after nearly a quarter of a century OF
growth and general use the excellent

accepted throughout the world, as the

due not only to the excellence Of the

st. Lawrence Transportation Company
Of this city is building ten steel steam
ships for the export trade between the
upper lakes and Europe. The first Of
these was launched a few days ago, and
the last will go into the water in June.
Three are building at Chicago, and two
each at Buffalo. Detroit and Duluth.
The cost Of the ten ships is put at ST.
100000.
The fleet will open a new trade.
They will run from the head of the
lakes through to Quebec and Montreal,
where their cargoes will be trans
shipped. In order that they may carry
cargoes of size through the Canadian
canals to salt water, they are not more
than 255 feet long, making them small
for the lakes. They have a capacity of
2600 tons, however, and will carry
22O0 tons on the fourteen-foot draught
permitted by the present Canadian
canals. The same company will have
ocean ships for the transatlantic trade.

A Water Metre Joke.

Water companies often prove tina,
they have no conscience; the following
instance shows that they are equally
lacking in a sense Of humor. A public
body. noticing a large increase in their
water bill, suggested to the company
that perhaps the metre might be out OF
order. In reply they were Informed
that the metre had been tested and was
found to register quite correctly, and
that directions would at once be given
to replace it with another! Evidently
an accurate metre does not meet the
views Of a water company.-LondoD
