Senior Munoz speaks enthusiastically of
the prosperous condition of his country

able and distinguished statesman of his
country. In speaking of the commercial
progress of Guatemala, Senior Munoz

beginning of this year a contract with a
svndicate in New York City for the con-
struction of the railroad line of the north
a most important work that will be fin

LIFE AT SEA.
Something About the Shocks From
Heavy Firing on Ships.

From the Chicago News.
1t is a disputed question whether the
men of modern warships serving the big
guns inside the easement or those serv-
ing the gun ON the upper deck suffer the
more from the effect of the firing. Two
distinct factors are to be taken Into ac-
count-the effect of the explosion at the
muzzle of the gun, commonly known as
the blast, and secondly the violent shock
which is transmitted from the gun. This
shock, although producing distinct ac-
ton on the skull the spinal column and
the larger joints, giving rise to general
shock, probably does not damage the
drum of the ear. The blast has far
reaching consequences. Officers say that
In addition to the violent shock feeling
of great depression at the pit of the
stomach is experienced. The ear suf-
fers more damage from big gun fire than
any other part of the body. When the
ear is injured the surgeon generally looks

Pygmy Tribes of Africa Have Rather
Bright Minds.
From the Chicago News.

From the Chicago News.
Although the Batwa or pygmy tribe of
central Africa have certain bodily re-
semblances to monkeys, the similarity
does not apply to their brains, according
to the Rev. A. B. Fisher who has spent
much time among them. 'lf we are to
look to them physically for Darwin s

iber, should say they are much in adj
vance of the tribes living outside of the
forest. 1t may be that, being continually
on their guard against the wild animals
that infest the forest, their minds have
become more alert and active. Certain
1t is that they show a quickness for
learning, and l have noticed that, while
seeking to instruct mixed class repre-
senting five different tribes, the pygmy
will grasp an idea more readily and cor
rectly than his competitors.
Constant defense against their strong
er neghbors has made them fearful
and vindictive little folks. The semi-ob-
security of the forest doubtless has re-
suited in their stunted growth. Their
bodies are covered with an almost i'm
perceptible down, which grows on the
arms in the same direction as on the
monkeys-that is, 1t meets toward the
elbows. AS they always sit with arms
clasped round the neck, the constant

Congress VIII Settle Question.

CONGRESS is to be asked to settle the
question whether the Department of the
Interior of the government of the Dis
trict of Columbia shall have control OF
Freedmans Hospital. Secretary Hitch
cock has prepared a bill which will be in
Hroduced, giving the department full
sway and 1t is understood the district
commissioners will make fight against
its passage. At the present time there Is
a division OF authority In the manage
ment of the institution that has resulted
In considerable embarrassment. The
Government and the District each pay
one1half of the expenses. While the ex-
ecutive control lies with the Interior De-
partment the expenditure of money Is
in the hands of the commissioners. Sec
rotary Hitchcock's bill provides for the
whole management to be placed into the
hands of the government and under the
new bill district persons will be cared
for at so much head Architects are
now submitting plans for the new hos
pital buildings and 1t is expected that the
award will be made in a few days. The
new buildings will cost $2500O0.

Booker Washington the Issue.

Washington Post.
 A Boston person of the name of Rob ert Treat Paine, Jr., has abandoned the Democratic Party to its fate and gone over to the Roosevelt cause. It must be an important event, for the press takes up his explanation:
 T am Democratic enough still to feel that I want the President of this coun- try to be Democratic enough to meet any man whose character deserves 1t at any function. I have myself dined with Booker Washington, and would con slider 1t a privilege again to do so.
 Does not this dilemma face MT. Par ker: If elected President and If there were in Washington a gathering of the most eminent educators in this country among whom Booker Washington would be inevitably classed, and the President wished naturally enough to show due recognition and honor to this gathering and invited them to the White House. woUld he bar out Booker Washington?
 Would he have jim crow pantry behind the house to which Booker Washington might be shunted off?
 "On the other hand, If Parker. as President should ask Booker Wash ington to the White House, would not the whole South again raise the cry that they had been bunkoed in their canddate?"
 We do not recall MT Robert Treat Paine. Jr. IL is said that he has been four times offered the Democratic nom nation for Governor of Massachusetts. but he cannot have been elected on any Of those occasions or We SHo"lu Cel tainly have heard of it. Otherwise, he seems to have recanted his old faith: because further adherence to 1t would bar him from inviting Booker Wash ington to a family dinner. He doesn seem to care much about the tariff, or the Philippines, or Republican extrav- aeance, or any other of the issues over which the parties are contending Ap- parently, he has thought 1t all over or imagines that he has, which comes to the same thing-and now reaches the conclusion that a party not pledged to the acceptance of Booker Washing ton as a parlor ornament and bosom friend is unworthy of the respect and confidence of any true Bostonian. Naturally 1t will injure the Demo oCratic cause to lose a vote Tn Massa- chusetts.

white man is excluded in Massachu- setts. That the negro has again got ten into his head ideas about these matters which promises annoyance to the white people of the South and se- rlous trouble to the negro is due to President Roosevelt. The Democrats are not responsible for the fact that campaign. The blame belongs to Mir Roosevelt. He made the issue and, at his dictation, the Republican Conven- tion devoted a plank in his platform to 1t. He has much to say in criticism lack either convictions or the courage to frankly state them. In his letter, he assumes the defensive. and essays to meet and answer his critics. He is supposed to have convictions or at least a political policy touching this race issue. His motives in that regard have been publicly called in question. As candidate for Vice-President and oth- CTS have charged that his policy has not been dictated by any sincere re- gard for the Southern negro. or, in- deed. for the negro anywhere. From the same source has come the direct charge that his ostentatious friendship TOT the negro was deliberate bid for the negro vote in the North where 1t is supposed to be the balance of power in several doubtful States. But while he was devoting much space to ex- blaming many things and denying oth- CTS with which he had not been seri- ously charged he was strangely silent
 It is true that close observers have for some time seen that the Northern people are fast coming to understand how the Southern people feel They have had their own troubles. The fre- quency with which the negro is being denied public accommodations among them shows that they are proposing to deal with the question just as the Southern people deal with it. It is probable that the President has discoV- cred that this policy of his Is arous- ing as much indignation and disgust in one section as in the other, and so decided to be dscreetly silent. But what about his boasted frankness in discussing all questions in which the people are interested? If he has not changed his views and proposes to stand pat and do as he has done in the past. If he has changed, his constitu- ents would like to know 1t. As he fnm- self has said in dealing with another question, silence can not be accepted as a recantation.

mills long ago. The meal now made is less palatabie and less nutritious. It is impossible for the best cook to make as good bread out of it as was made of the meal ground in the coun- try mills half a century ago. The best cook living cannot make good bread out of inferior materials.
 It is all a mistake to imagine that corn is a monotonous grain, so to speak, and that there can be little va. riation in the way 1t Is prepared for the table. This. we repeat.

Given good meal in the first place, and the great variety of dishes that can be made from 1t is surprising, and all of them palatable and wholesome.

sEs.AToR pAyrs.s TARIFF VIEWS.

Some of the opposition seem to find great comfort in the fact that twenty odd years ago. while a member of the Senate, the Democratic candidate for the vice-Presidency gave expression to some qualified protectionist opinions. They profess to find a ludicrous ele- ment in such man offering himself pr in being offered, as a candidate on a platform that denounces protection as robbery. This Is mere space-kill- gng argument. There will not in all human probablty be as much as one vote effected by the conceded fact that Senator Davis avowed these opinions about the doctrine of protection two decades ago. Stated as they were they were simply a guarded admission of the encouragement he considered necessary should be granted by tariff legislation on chosen lines of industry. Many Democrats have entertained opinions Ike these. We think they were wrong. Many entertain opinions of the same kind today. We think they are wrong. Protection can nev- CT be a source of wealth except to those who profit by the wrongful di- version of money from hands where it rightly belongs. to hands where 1t does not belong. Protection so sweetly named is really a system of waste Nevertheless this does not compel the genuine and whole-hearted tariff re- former "to flock by himself and re- al n oP men whose general aims are the same with his. Men fix and determine their political relations on the basis of a general concurrence in the objects to be aimed at through the medium of government control. To think other wise or so to act Is mere squeamish- ness.
 Senator Davis has accepted the nom- ination rendered him by the St. Louis Convention and has expressed his agreement with the principles there enunciated. That is sufficient for all ordinary practical political purposes and makes it wholly needless for any Democrat, however opposed on princi- pie to a protective tariff to search fin old CongreSSlonal RecOTdS TOT con tradiction to the Senator's opinions as he announces them today.
 If the fight could be made one of consistency on the great principles of the campaign, it would be an easy task 10 empty Roosevelt's candidacy of ev- cry vestige of sense. He was con Vinced free-trader; he is now a pro- tectionist of the most rabid kind. He ragged against gold standard men; he now finds all men odious who are not for gold. He was a civil service re- former; he has violated the law with greater frequency than all of his pred ecessors together. dating from the en- hctment of the law in 1882.
 The election will not in fact hinge pr turn upon a huge inconsistency in po- litical convictions such as Is plain fin Roosevelts political life, but on the Jarger question of policies and per Sonatities as they are presented by the bwosparties respectively.
