Proponese una investigation en- eI
departamento de Obras P1bIi-
cas- para averiguar 10 que en-
SconservacionS Sc gasto aquel
aflo, Y todo 10 demas.

Sc ha dicho que la ofcina de Obras
P1blicas ha dado una nota & Is prensa
en- Ia cual Sc dice que durante ell afio
econ6mico de 1899 q 1900, Is Conser-
vaci6n de las carreteras de Ia isIa estu-
vo 4 mi cargo y Sc gastaron $1, 600
en- Ia conservation de cada kil6metrO.
No creo que Ia O6cina de Obras
Pdbiicas haya dicho ESQ, porque aIIf
consta precisamente que ESQ no es
verdad.
Debo hacer constar:
1o.-En Enero de 1900 entire por
primera Yez en- Obras Ptblicas como
lngenlero encargado de Ia conserVa-
ci6n de t0das las c8rreteras de Ia IsIa;
y cese & principles de Junio, al esta-
blecerse el GObierno Civil. EstuYe
pues 5 meses encargado de ese servi-
clio.
Aquf esta Ia primera mentirs; no
puede calcularse un gasto medic cual-
quiera por alo Y pOr kil6metro de ca
rretera conserVadO bsjo mi direction,
pOrque 70 solo he estado 5 nae8es encar-
gadO de la conservation en- eI afIo eco
n6mIcO de 1899 q 1900.
Es necesario pues buscar editor res
ponsable para los Z meses restantes del
aludido aflo.
2o.-Durante esos meses me ocu-
pc no precisamente de la conservation
Ordinaria de las carreteras, sino de
continuar Ia reconstruction repara-
ci6n de elias. y de las casiIlas de cami-
neros, y obras de fabrica destrozadas
por el cicl6n que cuatro meses antes
arrasara Ia Isla. Buena parte del pre-
supuesto de conservation Sc habia gas
tad0 cuandO me hice cargo de este SER
vicio; = para atender & la reparaci6n
de los dan is causados por Ell cicl6n Sc
necesitaba mucho mas de 10 que Ell So
brante del presupuesto me permitia
gastar.
Puedo afrm9r que en- las secciones
de carretera que pudieron entonces en-
tregarse la conservation ordinaria,
el gasto medic correspondence 4 esos
5 meses no corresponds nj q Ia mitad
de un gasto medic de 1000 pesos por
lxil6metro y pOr aflO.
Como tOdO ESQ consta en- la oicina
de Obras P1blicas casi resistO Greer
que esa falsedad proceda de ese centric.

guar 10 de los mil pesos gastados en-

SENATOR STEWART GETS RID
OF EFFECTS OF DECEASED
WIFE.
Daughter of the Dead Woman Recov'
ers Her Mothers Portrait From
the Auctioneer.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 10
Senator W. H. Stewards friends and
acquaintance are freely criticising him
for his wholesale disposal of the per
which have been indiscriminately
bundled off to SlOan's auction rooms
with other houshold effects, to be dis
posed of under the hammer at an early
day in conformity with the senator's
directions and under his personal su-
pervision.
The fact that Senator Stewart fail
ed to notify his daughters of his in
tention to dispose of the family pOr-
traits, souvenirs and keepsakes in time
to avoid what is termed dissertation of
their mothers effects, has aroused in
tense indignation, not only in the Stew
art family, but among the extended cir
Gle of friends of the late Mrs. Stewart.
Just why the white haired senator un-
tremendously gets rid of the heir
looms is a subject of comment. Some
of his friends aver that the senator is
alone responsible for this unusual
method of getting rid of an aCcumula-
ton of possessions which he does not
care to retain since he married again.
When approached upon the subject.
he acknowledged that his orders We're
to remove everything in his former
home without reference to it's family
history or associations.
Whatever the real secret of the stu
alton, the fact that no regard has been
shown to valued household effects, the
treasured mementOes of family life, has
caused his daughters much anguish.
1t was only through chance that Mrs.
Bessie Stewart Hooker, the senator's
eldest daughter, discovered that the
things had been sent to auction on
Monday. She appealed to her father
requesting the privilege of recovering
some of the things which had been her
mothers but the old senator has made

Assembly at Dallas,

DALLAS, Texas. May 19.-The gen.
eral assembly of the Cumberland
Presbyterian church convened in Dali
las this morning. 1t is estimated that
the attendance is over 500. The COM
misSioners represent presbyteries in
the territory extending from Pennsyl-
Vania to California and from Iowa to
Louisiana. The sermon of the retir-
ing moderator occupied the most of
the opening session.
At the opening session kilograms OF
congratulatiOn We're EXCHANGED with
the Presbyterian general assembly
which began its session in Buffalo to-
day. The consolidation of the two de-
nominations, which has been agitated
for years, is one of the foremost mat
ters to receive attention at the pres
ent assembly. 1t is expected that both
assemblies will take action favorable
to the proposed amaIgamation. Other
matters affecting the doctrine and dis
clpline of the church will be considered
and acted upon during the week or ten
days the assembly will be in session.

the senator's attorneys and pleaded for
an order upon the auctioneer with
which she might procure possession OF
her mothers portrait, which. with ev-
erythnig else of like nature, had been
carried away for sale.
After no end of trouble and many
urgent appeals the lawyers finally
agreed that Mrs Hooker might have
the portrait if she choose to visit the
auction rooms, where she found it
buried under a pile of furniture and
hangings in company with a picture of
her youngest sister, Mrs. Henry Pay
ton. who is now with her husband in
San Francisco.
With these two valuables. Mrs. Hook
er was compelled to be satisfied. When
she made request for her mothers bed

How often the thought comes home tC
me,
AS the moments hurry away,
OF the many things | intended to dc
Somehow, some time, some day.
There are promises that have not been
kept,
Though | always meant to be true,
But time is too short for all the things
That a body intends to do.
| Will answer a letter, or read a book
| will write a bit of rhyme;
l viii do the things that | ought to do
Some day when l have time.
SO l look beyond. as l hope and plan
For the days that are just ahead,
While the day that is here goes into
the grave
Today is the only day we have,
OF tomorrow we can't be sure;
TO seize the chance as it comes along
Is the way to make it secure.
For every year is a shorter year,
And this is a truth sublime
A moment misspent is a jewel lost
From the treasury OF time.

Woman Disappears.

ago Mrs Seton fOrsook the society of
her Everett friends, leaving her trunk
In the room which she had occupied.
And then the correspondence lovers
commenced to arrive. The first one
was u bachelor from Marysville. His
name cannot be ascertained, but it has
been learned that he resides on a
ranch with his brother near MarysVille.
He showed Mrs. Gallagher letter from
Mrs Seton in which she enthusiastic
caIly asserted that she dearly loved to
take care of poultry. and asked a per-
sonaI Interview. with marriage as the
object. Mrs Gallagher soon dispelled
his dreams of nuptial bliss and he de-
parted. presumably headed back to-
