 On the Philippines Senator Beveridge said:

Former Governor Taft repub- lican; present Governor Wright, a demo- crat, and every man who has examined the situation on the ground says that this will not be for decades.

WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM.
Men Changed Collars in the Subway
 Tunnel.

From Harper's Weekly.
 A party of newspaper men who had been through the Subway tunnel under the Harlem river, were discussing the trip. Some of the men declared that they would never enter a caisson again. One said that his ears were buzzing, another com plained of his heart. One big, athletic fellow, with a thick, muscular neck lis- tened complacently. His heart and ears were all right. he men had been obliged to change their colthes before entering the tunnel, and the big man was putting on his collar. Suddenly he turned pale.
 My Godl" he exclaimed, clutching his throat and turning to the civil engineer who had guided the party, :" did you ever hear of mans throat swelling from going into the tunnel?"
 ''Try your own collar and give me mine and I guess you'll be alright" sajd a small reporter standing near by.
