THE HOMELESS AGE.


II UILDING reports OF the city OF New York
X for the past year are to the effect that the
- average cost OF the private dwelling erected
on Manhattan Island in the neighborhood OF
100000. That is to say houses were erected eX-
cept for very rich people Persons whose fortunes
are below the millionaire rank may live in flats, or
apartments, or hotels boarding houses, or tene-
ments, but they do not build houses OF their own any
more
On this side the continent matters have by no
means reached that point We have still a large
number OF small houses erected every year as homes
Tor persons OF moderate means Still even here the
main tendency OF the building boom is toward the
construction OF fats or apartment houses. similar
tendency be doubtless noted every other part
OF the country Housekeeping is becoming nuisance
increasing number OF people and, moreover, IS
yearly becoming more and more costly. There IS
required either great deal OF money or great deal
OF work great deal OF both TO maintain private
house anything like the scale OF convenience and
display that be obtained in we'll regulated
apartment house or fat So America is on the move
and although it IS moving slowly the progress is
steady.
While the rich are maintaining private houses they
can hardly be said to be maintaining homes. They
have town house and country house, villa by
the other OF these they fit ths seasons change
and fashion dictates In neither place do they make
true home Such seems to be the general rule with
the rich OF New York. 1t is not SO bad elsewhere
present, but New FORK leads and the country fol-
lows, so perhaps the time is not far distant when
similar condition OF things will prevail even in Cali
ornia where offers every inducement to home
making and where nothing except artificial cond-
tons tempt live otherwise than in homes OF
their own
Artemus Ward once scored a great hit with the
American people by saying "a man will fight for his
home, but he won't fight for his clearinghouse
Were the humorist alive to-day he would have to
change that saying or stand charged with being a
pessimist We are becoming nation OF apartment
dwellers but patriotism and our pugnacity have
not diminished. We know not the story OF the cliff
dwellers OF the Arizona and the Colorado mountains.
but doubtless they fought herocay for the preserva-
ton OF their lofty abodes high up the precipices;
and so weshall fight for elevated fats and rooms
way up in the top stories of huge buildings. 1t will
be homeless age perhaps, but love and patriotism
will live with undimnished vigor in our hearts.
1t may be that such representations are not wholly
called for California at any rate can show in
creasng number OF homes in all her cities and in all
her counties Still it is notable and remarkable
fact that in an American city during the course of a
whole year not single house was erected to serve
as the home of man who is not rich enough to be
rated as millionaire

to that question, and find it quickly or take
the consequences A message has been sent to Amer
lean officers at Mindanao saying: Neither the Sui
tan OF Bacaod nor the Panadungan wishes to be your
friend Within this month we wish to begin.
and If you do not wish it you lot OF cowatdly
rascals" Further the note says: IF you do not
wish to go from here come to this place and
the Sultan and the Panadungan will take OF you
for you are a lot OF hogs that eat hogs"
1t will be readily inferred from the note that the
Panadungan is some kind OF an unsocal creature that
backs the Sultan up his yearning for war but what
kind OF backer IS he? Is he pitcher catcher
in the battery? Is he a priest, banker, necro-
rnancer, a medicine man. a hypnotst, a syndicate
bulldog or brass band?
We will have to fight the Panadungan or put him
or ton the pension list That much IS evident,
so it is just as well for set about finding what
it is what it wishes ard what is the size OF the sack
it thinks it get away with The thing IS having
pcrnicious influence on the Sultan of Bacalod, and
unless something be done to restrain it there will
be trouble around those regions.
When we bought the Philippines bought, ac
cording to Tom Reed, 100000 OF Filipinos at
s. head, unpioked" We knew OF course that we
would discover some rare birds in the covers, and
accordingly when we found ourselves in possession
of small lot OF Sultans with variety OF rajahs we
were not surprised. We did not, however, count on
getting a Panadungan, and accordingly it is sur
prise party that is presented a New
Years entertainment.
Mindanao dispatches tells that the Sultan OF Sulu
continues draw his pension regularly and enjoy
it; that the Sultan OF Uatobauto has shown himself
cheerful, genial and friendly 1t is probable they
keep Panadungans in their courts. Only Bacalod
has Panadungan and Bacalod is for war A COM
mttee OF investigation is imperative. The country
be of peace while the Panadungan
is loose and the American people continue to eat
hogs.

and insured his election as marshal of
the court Of Topeka. AS many Of the
voters as heard his annual concert last
night, only about 200, will do what they
can for the professor For the grade
Of music and local reputation of the
band, it is strange that the concert did
not win a larger attendance. The peO-
pie have always been a little shabby
about attending Prof. Jackson's con-
certs. when an admission was charged,
but last nights attendance was just a
few little worse than heretofore. Prof.
Jackson does the best he can. His best
may not be on par with Sousa or Gil
mores best. but it is musical, and con-
tains some good features. Rag time, as
played by Jackson's band, is the stand
ard of music in sections Of Topeka. and
this widely known wielder of the baton
should receive a better patronage
Every number played last night won
an encore, which was cheerfully given.
Prof C. Washington Jackson IS not
stingy with his music. Although he be-
longs to a musicians union ne is not
averse to a little overtime, always will
ing to oblige.
The programme was padded with sew
eraI good features, among them three
songs by Mrs. Preston Talbert, who is
one of the best colored singers in the
west.
