by substituting bodies was discovered
when several representatives OF several
insurance companies opened a grave
in Long Island City, N. Y, supposed

It Is announced that from Feb. i,
the whole of the British forces in
South Africa from the zambezi to the
cape will be under the single and
supreme command to which Lieuten-
ant General Littleton will be appoint
ed, with headquarters at Pretoria.
This step is regarded as an important
innovation, as significant Of the in
tention Of the imperial government to
treat South Africa as a whole and as
giving strong probability of similar
political arrangement at some future
date. 1t is also held to point to the
future transfer of the center Of power
from Cape Colony to the new colonies.

be held responsible as they always
have been for such legislation.

population of Europe has risen in
round numbers from ZIG, 1000, 900 to
400, 900, 900: that of Asia and Africa
has probably Increased little more
slowly; that of America has become

The mania for creating more offices
is on. 1t is being developed in many
quarters. The necessity for such pO-
sition cuts no figure. It's to get in,
to provide some pet, or to help some
incompetent official along. That is at
the bottom Of most of the bills intro
duced in legislatures and congress to
create new officers and increase salar-
les of other officers.

The United States supreme court
has decided that six months residence
does not constitute domiciliary res

state cannot be obtained In a limited
time for a specific thing that does not
confer full citizenship for all pur-
poses.

Talk of the British Governments
Commercial Apathy"
London, Jan. 31.-Lord Cranborne,
under-foreign secretary, made
speech last night at Sheffield, in the
course Of which, referring to the stric-
lures passed on the apathy alleged to
be displayed by the government in
promoting Great Britain's commercial
interests abroad, he remarked: ''Un-
der the free trade system we have moth
ing to offer in the negotiation of COM
mercial treaties, and l. is therefore
useless to complain of the passive pol
icy of the foreign Office"
Lord Cranborne said he could not
regret the fact that one result Of the
Brussels sugar convention had been to
shake the confidence Of all the foreign
powers in this purely passive attitude
Of the British government.

CONSTITUTION IS ALL RIGHT.

A resolution has been introduced IL
congress by Representative Gaines, o.
Tennessee, which provides for the sub
mission of an amendment to the eonst;
tuition of the United States, as follows
THE president Of the United State
shall hold his Office during one term
SIX years, and no person, having onet
been president, either by election or suo
ressiou, shall be again eligible to THAI
Office"
Commenting upon the proposed amend
ment, the Cincinnati Enquirer says, ''Tht
constitution is all right. 1t is especial,
right in the matter Of the breyity of tuc
presidential term, and in leaving it t,
che Judgment of the people whether .
president is fit for reelection or not
The theory is that the chief executive
being necessarily clothed with great pow.
RI, should be permitted to exercise that
power only a short time before recciy
ing a second popular Endorsement. Til,
voters will take care of the question o
a second or third term. They have o
ready shown their disposition in tina
regard. There are certain ideas and con.
dttions that are almost rs firmly fixe
by custom as they could be by coustitu
tional or statutory provisions. There i
a good deal Of difference between tern
of four years and one OF six. Even If i

Tendency of the Times.

The tendency Of medical science is
toward preventative measures. The best
thought OF the world is being given to the
subject. Il is easier and better to pre-
vent than 10 cure. It has been fully de-
monstTated that pneumonia, one OF the
most dangerous diseases that medical
men have to contend with. can be pre-
vented by tho use Of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Pneumonia always results from
cold or from an attack ofinfiuenza (grip)
and il has been observed that this reme-
dy countsracts any tendencies Of this dis
ease toward pneumonia. This has been
fully proven in many thousands OF cases
in which this remedy has been used dur
ing the great prevalence Of colds and grip
in recent years, and can be relied upon
with implicit confidence. Pneumonia Of
ten results from a slight cold when no
danger is appFehended until Il is suddenly
discovered that there is fever and dif-
fieuIty in breathing and pains in the chest.
then Il Is announced that the patient has
pneumonia. Be on the safe side and take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soon as
the cold is contracted. Il always cures.
