We have no need to indulge in empty self glorffcation
Since the time of our colonial disasters Spain has broken
with the romantic and the epic. She has proved her perfect
solvency, even to the point of prodigality, in the manner in
which she paid debts for which she had only a secondary
responsibility. Our securities are quoted at a higher figure
than that at which they stood before the war, the wealth
OF the inhabitants is increasing, our industry and commerce
have notably developed, and one may say in general that.
now that Spain is more concentrated in herself, her efforts
have gained in intensity what they have lost in extensive
ness No one can forget the vital energy revealed by a
country which, in the space of a quarter of a century. has
transported more than 100000 men in her own ships across
the Atlantic, has spent more than $780, OOO 900 pesetas, and
has got so far with the liquidation Of the debt thereby in

that Germany fell far lower after the Napoleonic wars than
we ever fell; and that Italy, which is now courted by the
great powers, served for centuries as the cockpit of the

TOSSED SKIRTED FOOTPAD
Farmer Hokpins Had Kindly Given
"Her" a Ride.

Chester. Pa, Aug. 3O.-Ford Hopkins,
a farmer near Elwyn. outwitted a
highwayman, who was dressed in wo-
mems clothes. Seeing what he sup
posed was a woman coming along the
road, Hopkins offered to carry her as
far as their roads lay together. The
man was attired in a black silk dress
and fashionable toque bonnet.
Hopkins disliked the actions Of his
passenger. however, and happening to
glance down, found that a heavy-soled
shoe and several inches of rough mems
trousers were protruding from beneath
the skirt.
Hopkins had just sold load Of pro-
duce in Chester, and had a large sum
of money in his wallet. Watching his
opportunity, he sized the stranger by
the leg and arm and tossed him out
into the road. He then whipped up his
horse and drove away.
The stranger was probably one OF the
thieves who entered the residence OF J.
Parry Compton here several days age
