Cuba'S Good Record.

Many Americans have been agree
ably surprised to find that the Gu.
bans have thus far done so well in
their career as a self-governing PEG.
Pile. The Cleveland Leader aptly says
that the granting of independence to
Cuba was accompanied with serious
misgivings as to the ability of the Gu
bans to govern themselves. at was
freely predicted that the attempt
would be failure, and it was believed
that the failure would como wit hin q
year or two after the new republic had
been established. Americans have
ben happily disappointed in that res
pect. The eff 'ial1 CT the republic
have met the various emergencies
which have arisen in q pra 'sewOrthy
way, and the result of thu election will
go lar to establish the growing opin-
ion that Gaia is PERFECTLY 60 ppetent
to care take ofittel'. There should be
satisfec lion in this tor A mericans, be-
cause, without the help of the U0ited
States, Cuba would still have been uu-
der the sovereignty of Spain, and it's
people would have probably continu-
ed to feel the oppression of the rule of
that nation. The cause of freedom
was promoted in a notable way by
what the Ulited States did in the
Queen of the Antilles"
The Troy Times gives due credit to
President Palma for his part in the
good record made by his countrymen.
1t says: "Unquestionably very much
of the peace and good order with
which Cuba is working out it's destiny
is due to the wise guidance of Pres'-
dent Estrada Palma, who to the pe t.
rot SIN attested by long labors il
behalf of the freedom of bis country
adds the knowledge gained by con-
tinued residence in the United States
and careful study of the systems and
methods under which the great re-
public has grown to it's present pros
perity aud power. He and Cuba are
to be most heartily congratulated on
such happy com b nation"

Discovery OF Maple Syrup.

Thelegend of the discovery of maple
syrup is a curious one, and one of ma
tional Importance to those of US who
are real Americans, for it was one of
our native Indian chiefs who made
this discovery, according to the
legend.
This chief instructed his squaw to
cook a pec Of veni son for his sole en-
iOyment on his return from the chase.
After putting the meat to cook, in
water obtained by melting snow, the
squaw became so absorbed in making
pair of moccasins for her husband
that she let the meat burn, as many
more civilized housewives have done
since. Also, like the modern house
wife, she was ready to meet the emer-
gency. AS there was no time to melt
snow again she bethought herself Of
the water running from the maple
tree behind the wigwam. This she
poured in with the meat. The hunter
was delayed in his coming so that
when he returned there was nothing
but a sticky mess in the bottom of
the pot. Fearinga storm, the guilty
squaw hid when she heard her hus-
band coming, but hearing no out,
burst she ventured forth and found
the lusty chief utterly oblivious to
every thing about him except the pot,
which he held between his knees eat
ing the contents with the utmost de-
light, and licking his fingers with
gusto.
This was the first dish of man!e-
syrup served epd was fortunate dis
coverv for our forefathers for history
tels US that as far back as 1870 the
frat msple syrup and sugar were
made in Vermont and for many years
her output was nearly one-third of
what was made IN the country. 10
the oldentime maple sugar making
was not only pcnic where many q
love match began but it was a most
necessary function, for maple sugar
WAS the only kind Of sweet known to
the rank and file Nearly every well
TODD farmer in those DAYS owned his
own sugar camp and every member
OF the family was called on to lend
hand in sugar-making time.
