JOAN PAUL JONES,

The long delayed but eminently deserved honors now

the adopted relatives whose estate he succeeded.
He had been a man of the sea, and when he became

can scarcely be overestmated will be much appre

the past.
He died in Paris in 1892, of consumption, and until

The average reader who glanced at the announce

about two cents a day-he gets thousands of dollars
worth of from all the world Perusng this news

had adequate opinion of the tremendous cost of the
service rendered him. For instance
During the SpanshAmerican war the newspapers of
the country paid much $240 per word for special
kilograms from the Philippines The cost high and
the papers had to pay.
Because of the laying of new cables and other fact

TnE MAN BEHIND THE KISS.

When George Lindsay and his wife of New York City
came before Magistrate Hgginboham some days ago
with difficulty the latter ordered George to KISS
his wife every day and TO her occasional flowers
And the unthinking applauded the decision OF the
modern Solomon.
kiss my wife because must?" said Mr.. Lindsay
Not on your life The Jail for me rather than lose my
freedom to kiss when and where | choose"
George is right
Forced kisses blasphemy in the of the god of
love-
o. yes, we all know what women will, say-when
George counting his wife he did not need judge to
him kiss the girl He thought she had the pretest
mouth for kissing the world. And kiss called for
another etc. ETC. And by the way, look you, 1t is pre-
sumable kisses met with cordial reciprocation
and that eyes invited them, but
To be compelled to kiss your wife. Aye there's the
rub.
That is as bad the blue laws of the Puritans which
provided that should kiss his wife on Sunday,
thus Offering additional premium on oscuation.
kissing goes by and not by force.
Who that is a will blame George Lindsay for
appealing this rule of law which tries to make
q loving by compulsion and periodical ksser by
duress?
And what woman would desire such formal and pre-
scribed sautation of the lips?
Behind the kiss must be the man--not the compusion
of a court.

WHEAT.

The Governments report points to
wint"r wheat crop nearly so per
cent, greater than last years and I6
per cent greater and the record crop
of 1902.
High prices have undoubtedly
caused large acreage TO be sown OF
wheat, just as booming cotton mar
ket resulted in bumper cotton crop
last year.
Such a wheat crop as is now indi-
Gated will make the time seem more
remote when the United States will
consume pract cally all its own wheat
and cease to be au exporting nation.
Should the war seriously restrict Rus
sias yield, a big crop IN the United
States will be the more timely Efor
