preciated.
What yarn that vast The little scrap
with Spain had turned the heads of the
American people completely. country
which but a few years before, as time
counts with governments. had survived the
shock of four years of civil war and then
dismissed the greatest army of modern
record back to the paths of citizenship and
peace. had been so dazzled by the achieve
ments of the small force that had freed
Cuba and taken over Porto Rico and the
Philippines that nothing but the trappings
of war and the glory of conquest would
now satisfy it's sanguinary tastes.
Having put the Constitution under foot
at home. we were now bent on getting
everything under our thumb abroad. Can
ada must be careful and respectful. or the
Union Jack would come down and the Stars
and Stripes go up between suns. Mexico
must walk a chalk. With the canal zone
In Panama as a base. we would shortly be

America. With the Philippines as a base.
we were already moving for further con-
quest In the far east And thus the anti
imperialist spellbinder, like Puck, put
girdle round about the earth in forty min
utes'
The yarn had it's run. Used in all seri-
BUSINESS here at home. there was small
wonder that it should have wide circula-
ton at distance. Then came election
day, with its impressive register of votes,
and both at home and abroad the people
began to open their eyes at the character
of the tales with which during an exciting
campaign they had been RECALLED And they
now discover that Uncle Sam is in no es-
sential sense changed either as man or
neighbor, is not cast for the role of tyrant,
and has no plans which are in any part
inimical to the peace of the world. And
while upon the subject it may be stated
that President Pardo has perused Mr..
Roosevelts message in the right spirit and
arrived at the truth Of the situation.

The All-Night Bank.

And now it's all-night bank Time
was when nearly everybody slept at night,
but the nght-waking population in great
city is so important that it must have
banking facilities between the setting and
the rising of the sun. The news of this
projected enterprise was told recently as
follows:
''There is in contemplation by number
of prominent New Workers, including o. II.
p Belmont, Oakleigh Thorne, w. X. Van.
derbilt jr. Harry Payne Whitney, Clarence
H. Mackay- and others the establishment
of a bank and safe deposit company some
where in the all night belt which shall re-
main open for business night and day. The
proposed capital is 100000. Mr.. Thorne,
who is president of the North American
Trust Company, is mentioned for the presi-
dency although he would not discuss the
matter yesterday. The originators Of the
bank think there is call for it to ac-
commodate travellers who come in late and
go away again before the other banks
Open for hotels and restaurants and for
theatergoers and operagoers who would be
able to lock up jewelry in the safe deposit
vaults after its use at any night function.
The bank will have two shifts of employees
and owing TO this expense will pay no in
terest on deposits
1t Is well known that New York has many
alI-nght banks and bankers of peculiar
kind, but not of the variety which it is pro-
posed to install.
The growth of the all-night habit in big
cities is remarkable. II was not so many
years ago that an all-night eating house
was unknown. Now their lights burn
throughout the land. A few years back
to buy medicine after midnight man
would have to pull the might bell' and
break the rest of the slumbering druggist.
All this is changed. Now a dapper night

Mcclellan.

The mayoralty race in New York has
opened little early, and promises great
things in the way Of racket. Mr.. Murphy
has announced that Mr.. Mcclellan is to
stand for a second term, and accordingly
the anti-Tammanyites are taking their cue.
In some things the young mayor has done
well-has, indeed been praised by men OF all
parties. He has capacity and character,
and has shown them in Office. Just now,
however, he Is under FIRE on the score OF
the city's bill for light, and the disclosures
are not fattering to one Of his appointees.
This illustrates the mayors weakness. His
company is not of the best, and he must
answer for what his subordinates do in
their places. Election day is eleven months
of, and in that time, judging by the way
the ball has opened, we should witness some
lively footing in the metropolis.

tics that the number of cigarettes annually
sold In this country at present Is less by
about a billion than it was ten years ago.
to the operation of the anti-cigarette laws
to the power of public sentiment. to the
placing on the market of a great number Of
cheap cigars, that are usually classed as
stogies or cheroots, or to all three causes
would be hard to determine. Whether the
health of the nation will ultimately suffer
from much tobacco smoke is a question over
which doctors will always disagree; but we
think we are right in saying that there is
no disagreement as to the injuriousness Of
the use of tobacco to persons who have not
attained their full growth. AS it is proba-
bly, true that the decrease in the consump-
ton of cigarettes is due mainly to preyen-
ton of indulgence in them by boys, the fact
that there Is a decrease, and considerable
one, is gratifying.

An Epitaph.


His ankles are weary, go.
He's footsore and lame;
Sensations of woe
Rise all over his frame.
He is dizzy and faint
With the roar of the throng.
His wife went out shopping
And took him along.
She is fragile and fair;
He is lusty and tall.
Yet she's blythe as a bird
And enjoying it all.
He says for his tombstone
These words won't be wrong:
My wife went out shopping
And took me along"
