Richard Mansfield is a stickler for
every little point in the presentation
OF his plays, yet now and then the
unexpected happens In snch a way as
to provoke smile from one who is
not considered the most humorous of
actors. In the final scene Of "A
Partisan Romance Mansfield as Baron
Chevrial falls dead at supper, amid
the talking and music. The doctor in
the play calls out, Stop the music.
the baron is dead" and the curtain
falls. On one occasion Mansfield was
playing a overnight stand in a small
country town, where the music Of the
local orchestra was atrocious. At the
supper scene Mansfield fell dead as
usual, but the actor who was playing
the part of the doctor cried out: stop
the music. It has killed the baron.''
Even Mansfield smiled

how once. when he had bean long
away from civilization. he was riding
with lawyer friend to an army
post:
Il wore no coat" writes DR.. Rains
ford; my shirt was heavily spatter-
ed with blood from butchering our
own meat and carrying il into camp
on my shoulders. just before We
reached the post we met three or four
rough Western fellows; they looked
al me and at my friend, gave US the
time Of day. as they always do there,
and passed on to where our outfit was
behind: they hailed the drivers of
our pack horses and said:
Who are those two fellows in
front?"
One is a lawyer and the others a
parsOn."
Suppose the big fellow is the law
yer?"
No, he's the parson''
Well. he looks big enough 70 work

parts of Pennsylvania and elsewhere

According to a communication which
Lord Cranborne made to the House of
Commons on Tuesday the number OF
Jews who lost their lives at the massa-
ere az KishinsfT was about one hum
dred. The number injured was stated
70 be large. A dispatch to the New
York World from Bucharest states that
the number killed outright was It's aud
that Of the 3s5 wounded 80 afterwards
succumbed to their injuries, making
total Of 2s5 that were murdered. In
addition over 500 dwellings and shops
were wrecked.
Is this not a startling record for
nation whose ruler, the Gar, not more
than six years ago appeared before the
world as the champion of peace? 1t
liz a pity that the Kishineff Jews can
not carry their claims for damages re-
sulting from the ruthless and atrocious
crime from which they suffered to the
Hague for adjudication. Then the
world would know all the facts of the
crime. 1t would know why there was
delay In putting a stop TO the riot and
the real cause of the riot.
The cause given by Count cassini.
the Russians minister to this country,
isn't accepted. The truth hasn't been
published yet. and IL the statement is
true that the Russian government is
discouraging publications in regard to
the massacre it may be that the truth
will never be known.

Cuba has now been under self-gov-
eminent for a full year. The annlver-
sary occurred on Wednesday. May 20.
The day was celebrated in the island
and congratuIatory messages were ex-
changed between President Palma and
heads Of other governments. Not so
much doubt is heard now with regard
70 the ability OF the cubans to govern
themselves. The country is serene and
apparently on the road to prosperity.
II cannot be said that the United
States have done great deal during the
past twelve months to assist their
brave little neighbor along the road TO
better times. Our promises have not
been kept as Cuba had right to ex-
pect they would be; nevertheless she
has done we'll. President Palma has
made good officer and his popularity
is increasing.

ABOUT THE MARINE HOSPITAL.

The Morning News has received a
postal card signed Citizen" on which
IS written this question. What has be-
come Of the Marine Hospital build
ing Is ii dead Of innocuous desue-
tude?
We are frank 70 say that we do not
know what has become Of that insti-
tuition. We expected work on the build
ing would be begun very soon after the
Legislature transferred Jurisdiction of
the site TO the United States. Indeed
we took the trouble to have the Sur
geon General Of the Marine Hospital
Service and the architect Of the Treas
ury Department interviewed in regard
to the matter. and we published their
replies to our Inquiries The public,
therefore. are just as well acquainted
with the reasons for the delay in be-
ginning work as we are
We are sure that we gained the i'm
preston from what we published from
the Washington officials that the build
ing would be constructed during the
present year. The plan was to be pre-
pared at once, At one time II was
thought the remainder Of the lot ought
TO be secured before beginning the con-
struction Of the hospital. but that plan
was abandoned, and the conclusion ar
rived at that the part owned by the gov
eminent was large enough for the hos
pital It was argued that IL ever the
other part of the lot should be wanted
it could be purchased at as low price
as that for which il could be had now.
We are sure that our contractors
and mechanics would be glad to have
the construction Of the building begun
at once. While it is true that there is
a good deal OF building going on now.
the probabilities are that there will
not be more work during the summer
months than our mechanics can do.
They and about everybody else would
like TO see the contract for the build
ing given out. II would mean better
times during the summer for a good
many people. Besides, If we are to
have a marine hospital there is no
good reason why we should wait years
for it.

Official investigation. by one Of Post
master General Paynes own inspec-
tors. shows that Allgood, the colored
rural free delivery carrier at Gallatin.
Tenn, was held up and warned to re-
sign by only two persons. There was
no mob. no popular movement against
Allgood, no demonstration by the peo-
pie. Two individuals, acting for them
selves and representing nobody else,
are responsible for the whole thing.
And yet the Postmaster General, ex-
ercising the power Of an autocrat, has
punished the whole community by dis
continuing the mail route So far
from being a servant Of the people, he
sets himself up as their Judge and
master, rendering judgment and in
fiicting punishment before even the
evidence is taken. Logically, II two
highwaymen we're to hold up a mail

Payne would shut up the Chattanooga
postoffice on the ground that it was

ployed in that city. Mr.. Payne is
