Butter From cocoanut Oil.

DIR. Henner, a German scientist, has been expert
menting with cocoanut oil, and finds that it makes a
very satisfactory article of butter. 1t contains seven per
cent. of souable acids-namely, butyric acid and capric
or decylic acid, which gives the butter a pleasant aroma
and SAVIOR, making it taste something like a hazelnut.
This butter will keep fifteen or twenty days before show
ing any acid reaction, and sustains many tests of true
butter, for which it is a better substitute than oeomar-
garine, and can be produced much more cheaply. Pos
terity will face a scarcity of milk and the butter made
therefrom, so rapid is the increase of poulaton and so
restricted in comparison is the valuable area for pastur-
age and perhaps the cocoa tree may come in as the most
useful auxiliary of the COW anywhere to be found.-Colo-

CUPTIS CORRESPONDENCE

1t cannot be denied that the letters on New Mexico,
published by William L. Curtis in the Chicago Record
Herald, are much to be regretted. They have damaged
Mr.. Curtis in his reputation as a reputable newspaper
correspondent, for those who know New Mexico as 1t
really is, and who have read the letters of Mr.. Curtis
could now no more believe him under oath. He has
shown his statements to be totally unreliable, ana 10 all
appearances. Intentionally so.
But the matter of greatest regret is that his letters
have greatly damaged this territory. In that particular,
Senator Beveridge nor even the man Davis, whose orig
inal ISLANDERS of this land and it's people have so often
been reported-neither of these can stand at the head
of the class. since this man Curtis came upon the scene.
In another place in this issue appears an extract from
his vicious utterances, the whole article being too volum'
inous for quotation. As evidence of the evil his CORE
spondence is causing, the following is reproduced from
the Kansas City Star:
New Mexico's Shortcomings.
Mr.. W. E. Curtis. who has been visiting New Mex
leo. reports discouragingly on its fitness for statehood.
A large majority of the voters, he finds, can neither read
nor write, and are controlled by a few political leaders
and the priests. The poems vote as they are told and
nowhere is universal suffrage such a farce as in New
Mexico"
1t cannot be too often pointed out that the connec-
ton of Oklahoma and Indian Territory with New Mexico
In the statehood bill is purely artificial, and that the
case of the two eastern territories deserves to be CON
sidered on its merits. To condemn them because OF the
defects of the Spanish population Of New Mexico is man
ifestly unfair.
Oklahoma and Indian Territory are rapidly develop
ing regions, supplied with an intelligent and energetic
native population. Their voters have nothing in common
win the poems q new eAlCo Ielhdps IL . 5oOu P"i
tics to tie up the fortunes of these territories with
those of Arizona and New Mexico. But it is misleading
TO the country as a whole.
There are legitimate grounds for opposing the admis-
sion of the two western territories. There are none in
the case of Oklahoma and Indian Territory. And these
two prosperous districts ought not to be forced to suffer
for the shortcomings of it's %neighbors with whom their
names are coupled.
The Citizen would add that those who form their
views from the Curtis letters are not aware that his
study of New Mexico was from the windows of a palace
sleeping car, with a brief stop at a few Of the larger
towns, in which he confined his search for information to
those who would rather defame the territory than to see
it become a state.
What he doesn't know about New Mexico would fill
a volume even larger than could be made from the false
hoods he has written.

Demand for White Stockings.

Stocking, stocking, who's got the white s~tocking?'
Is the cry on Washington avenue in the wholesale dis
trct, for, strange as it may seem, there are none to be
had there, and the factories are away behind in their
orders. White stockings have certainly come into their
own again, said a well known Washington avenue whole
sale dealer. Every woman in the country decided to
wear white shoes, and, of course, each pair of shoes re-
quired at least two pairs of stockings. The factories
were not prepared for the unparalleled demand, and CON
seQuentiy We had none. Many of the retailers who laid
in a supply still have them. but there is a possibility
that there will be a time before long when Belinda will
literally have nothing to wear in the way Of white stock
ings."-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Awkward situation.

Awkward Situation.
Congressman Morrell, of Philadelphia. said in the
course of an address to national guardsmen:
las colonel of the Third Regiment of Pennsylvania,
| once took part in an odd and amusing episode.
My regiment was marching down Broad street, in
the van of an immense and magnificent parade, when,
near Walnut street, it became necessary to push the
people back a little. The ropes had broken at this point
and the people, quite Internationally, encroached on the
line of the parade.
81 assigned a handful of young privates to help the
police handle the crowd, and one private, stationed near
me, | kept my eye on. He got everybody back except a
fat man. This person did not move.
Private said l, put that fat man back
".'He says he can't get back, the crowd is pushing
so' the private answered.
"'Put your musket butt in his chest said l. and
force him back. You are the stronger
Yes said the private, I know I'm the stronger,
but he's the foreman of our shop."-Cincinnati En-

Brittany Marriage Feast.

Serignac, in Brittany, was the scene of a great mar
riage feast on the occasion of the marriage of the
mayors daughter. 1t was an al fresco meal, partaken of
by 1000 guests, who ate the good fare provided for them
in trenches which had been specially dug for their ac-
For the feast, seventeen oxen and a num-
Der Of sheep, pigs and calves were slaughtered. The
drink comprised 300 barrels of cider, not to mention
numerous bottles of wine, liquors and beer. The meal
lasted four hours and a half. A number of Breton
bards, attired in native costumes, attended and sang bal
lads during the feast. The fetes were resumed the fol
lowing day. The fragments of the feast were distrib-
uted to the poor of the district. The beggars of the
locality had a good time. The oldest member of the
fraternity was signally honored. He led off the dance
on the village green with the ~bride.-Selected.

THE MS
BY Edmund Vance Cooke.

What are the terms which cause these squirms
And seem to ask our pity?
What things are these the Japanese
Are asking NJ. White?
o. some regard them harsh and hard
And some insist they're easy,
And some suppose they're such a dose
As make the stomach queasy.
Do they demand the car shall stand
In front of the mikado
And there kotow and bob and bow,
Eschewing all bravado?
And while the mob shall watch him bob,
With ludicrous ~solemnity,
The laps. perhaps, like willy chaps,
Will grab the gate-indemnity!
Would they arrange an Interchange
Orwell domestic duties;"
The grooms, perhaps, to be the Japs,
The brides the Russian beauties?
The DOT to show tsome spell it "doughD
Before each ceremony,
And if divorce ensue, of course,
The Japs get alimony!
Or would they make each Russian take
Out Mutual insurance,
The Japs to be the company
And hold the funds in durance?
Then when in need of fun, or feed,
Or fireworks, forts, or fences,
They'd simply spill it from the till
And charge it to expenses"
Some say the Russ is blusterous.
Some say the Jap is breezy;
Some say they're hot, som say they're not,
Buth rather cold and wheezy;
The terms, some hint, are hard as flint;
Some say they're mild and cheesy,
But we all know that time will show
They're only Japaneasy!

No PROPOSAL.

A young lady, whose beauty is equal to her blunt
ness in conversation, was visiting at a house where other
guests were assembled, among them the eldest son of a
rich manufacturer. The talk turned on matrimonial
s~quabbles. Said the eligible party:
Il hold that the correct thing for the husband is to
begin as he intends to go on. Say that the question is
one Of smoking. Almost Immediately | would show my
intentions by lighting a cigar and settling the question

The total of national bank note circulation has now
passed $500, 900 1000. 1t stands at the highest point in
the record of national bank history. At the end of July
there was an aggregate of $500, 000, 900 national bank
notes outstanding. That great total can be compared
with $240,00 900 of outstanding circulation at the close
of the SpanishAmerican war. There has thus been an
increase since the autumn of 1898 of 40 per cent. in
bank note circulation. We have added $~46,O0O,OOO to the
circulation in the last nine months alone. Both the great
additions to the note supply and the rapidity with which
the increase is still going on give rise to speculation as
to whether or not the increase is in response to a legit-
mate demand for more currency or whether it is to be
attributed to some fault of the National Banking Act.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-"Do you

the reply.
This explains as clearly as anything
can the situation in which the rela-
tons of the United States and Vene-
zuela are to-day. The crisis is draw
ing near. There is one ray of encour-
agement in the idea prevailing here,
that the only way to protect American
rights in Venezuela is by force and
considerable force at that The slight
encouragement referred to is the re-
cent report to the State Department
that the Venezuelan Government NAV
reconsider its refusal to accept arbi-

offended the late Minister of Foreign
Affairs by sending out that official on
q matter of diplomatic import while
he was giving a party. Bowen, in or
der to preserve the good relations. was
compelled to write a letter of apology
to the Foreign Minister and also had a
notable correspondence with Presi-
dent Castro, who took up the Foreign
Minister'S side, apparently more to en-
barrass Bowen that from any love for
the Foreign Minister, whom he later
ousted from the Ministry.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Feb. 8. Peter
Eberhart is supposed to be the name
of farmland who yesterday drank
a small bottle of nitro -glycerin on a
wager, froze to death while walking
home and to-day exploded when eff
forts were made to thaw him out.
Peter worked for Claude Argonyale
near Wheatley, Mimi, and while in
the village yesterday got drunk with
the Town Marshal, who showed him a
bottle of nitro glycerin. saying it was
taken from a bank robber Peter bet
that he could drink the contents and
never feel the injurious effects. He
drank the nitro glycerin and started
for home. Whether from the explosives
whisky or intense cold, he failed to get
home, and this morning was found bv
the roadside frozen to death. The BODY
which was badly distorted, was picked
up and hauled TO the Argonvale home
where Peters late boss undertook to
thaw him out so that the body might
be placed in a coffin and properly com.
posed. While the body was left in
an outbuilding near a stove, in which
was a roaring fire, the nitro -glycerin
exploded. The building was complete-
ly wrecked. and one button, a boot
heel and a piece of watch chain were
all that was found of Peter.

British Place Ships
in the North
Sea.

LONDON, Feb. "A speech delivered
in the Hampshire village of Eastleigh
last evening by Arthur Hamilton
Lee, Civil Lord of the Admiralty, has
created much excitement In dealing
with the recent redistribution of Great
Britair's naval forces, Lee frankly de-
clared that Great Britain had not so
much to keep her eyes on France and
the Mediterranean, but should look with
anxiety, though not with fear, toward
the North Sea, and the fleets had been
so distributed as to enable them to
deal with any danger in that direction
that may occur.
If war should unhappily be declared,
he continued, under existing conditions
the British navy would get its blow in
first, before the other side had time to
read in the papers that war had been
declared. He maintained that ''by re-
cent naval reforms Great Britain's
strength as a naval fighting power has
been doubled during the last few
weeks
The speech, which was delivered at
railway dinner, in nowise of politi-
cal character, is commented on in some
of the London morning papers as ex-
ceedingly indiscreet and likely to be
greatly resented by Germany, at which
1t evidently pointed. The Daily Chron-
icle suggests that Premier Balfour
should muzzle his Civil Lord of the
Admiralty.

that as this dinner was to the mem

Chief Justice is in mourning for his
wife and could not attend, so the place
OF honor at the dinner fell to Justice
Harlan.
When Speaker Cannon learned that
the court was to be accorded preced-

note to the President, in which he
asserted that, as Speaker of the House,
he could not be outranked by any per-
son at that dinner, except the Presi-

excuse him. This the President did

Gi:IPENBERG RESIGNS.
Russian General Retires From Com
mand of Second Manchurian Army.

ST PETERSBURG, Feb. 3.-Lieu-
tenant General Gripenberg has asked
to be relieved of command of the Sec
ond Manchurian army and has hand
ed over his command to Lieutenant
General Myloff because of i'll health.
1t is believed in military circles that
the succession of Lieutenant General
Myloff to the command of the second
army of Manchuria does not neces-
sarily mean that the position of sec
ond in command in the Far East has
devolved upon him. General Myloff
has good record as fighter. though
he-was not present at any of the great
battles of the Manchurian campaign.
He is 62 years old. He fought in the
Turkish campaign and saw a great
deal of service in the Caucasus. He
was appointed to the command of the
Eighth Corps in 1901 and wentA to
Mar-huria with that corps from
ODESSA. The Eighth Corps was one
OF the latest corps to arrive there.
Army officers confirm the report
that General Gripenberg is in i'll
health and point out that he was seri-
ously ill a year before his appoint
ment TO the command of the second
army of Manchuria.
