San Domingo Asks for
Aid from United States
In Establishing Her Customs
Revenue System On a
Practical, Paying
Basis.

| w oohAuS (OuS JAM AA' "A otoIS
ment regarding the situation in
! Sand Domingo was issued by 4 s.
sistant Secretary LOOMS today:
The Dominican republic has
formally and freely invited the
government of the United States
to assist it IN the administration
of its customs revenues, and to
aid it in esta blishing it's fiscal
system upon firm and business
like basis. The government of
the United States having been ex-
plicity, repeated and emphatical-
ly informed by more than one of
the great powers that it ought
either to try to evolve some order
out of the financial chaos in the
Dominican republic or assent to
certain European creditors of
that republic doing this and to
the administration of the Domin-
lean custom house and by them,
supported by their warships, has
has deemed it advisable, in view
of the unfortunate financial con-
ditions in Santo Domingo, which
for the last ten years, have been
rapidly growing worse, to accept
the invitation of the Dominican
government, and therefore repre-
sentatives of this government
and ofSanto Domingo have signed
memorandum of a proposed
agreement looking to the Ameri-
can control of the fiscal affairs,
upon the request and with the
consent of the Dominican gov
eminent.
The United States proposes to
guarantee the territorial integri-
ty of the Dominican republic. 1t
is not the purpose of this govern
ment to assume a protectorate
over Santo Domingo, or to inter-
fere with, or participate in, it's
domestic affairs any further than
the collection Of it's customs rev.
enues, the necessary revision OF
it's tariff laws and the ad justment
through properly constituted
tribunals or commissions, of it's
foreign claims, and its economic
and fiscal organization on a sound
basis may make it essential to do.
President Morales has slgned
a decree which will be published
today in which the government
of the United States is officially
asked to take full charge of all
the Dominican custom house: to
name all the employees, and to
collect all the revenues, forty.five
per cent of which are to be re-
turned to the Dominican govern
ment for its current expenses.
The balance is TO be used to
meet the interest charges on the
acknowledged bonded indebted
ness and other just obligations
of the republic. Any surplus
will be turned over to the Domi-
nican government. The obliga-
tons representing the bonded
Indebtedness are largely owned
by foreign creditors.
The government of the United
States does not guarantee the
debts of Santo Domingo, or agree

The Tvpical Fruit.

Pineapple and love apple" Ito
mato) are instances of the manner in
which the apple has been habitually
taken as the typical fruit. the name Of
which is naturally borrowed in chris
tening all sorts of fruit and vegetables
that only remotely resemble it. DR..
Murray's dictionary gives an impos-
ing list of them-Jew's apple, devils
apple, kangaroo apple, and SO on. A
writer of the seventeenth century
speaks of "the fruit or apples of palm
trees and a fourteenth century man
says that "all manere aples that ben
closyd in an harde sknne, rynde, other
shale, ben callyd Nuces" (nuts). In
the year 1000, apparently, "earth ap-
pies" meant not potatoes, but cucum-
bers. And even Ewes apple is be-
lieved to have been q citron.

Diet and Dahlias.

Few guess that the dahlia, just now
figuring SO gloriously at all the horti-
cultural exhibitions. has had drably
unromantic origin. This favorite ear
" autumn flower was first introduced
into Mexico by the Swedish botanist,
DR.. Dahl, after whom it is named, q
a substitute for the potato! Felicit-
ously enough, the revolution against
the tyrannical rule of the Murphies
was plotted in the revolutionary year
1888. But British gardeners soon per-
ceived that the acrid flavor Of the tu-
bers. which are still eaten in the south
Of France, would never be appreciated
by our insular palate. They wisely
devoted all their attention to the de-
velopment Of the flower, with the re-
suit that we now possess the double
dahlia. a.-Westminster Gazette.

. Reasoning Of Bees.

Honeycomb shows how economy Of
room. building materials and mathemat-
cal theories may coincide, and shows
also that the bees have taken advantage
OF the fact. Some of the savants have
asserted that the rectangle or the equi-
lateral triangle would have been quite
as efficient as working plans for con-
structing cells for storing honey. But
probably the bees. originally, made
their cells to fit their brood, and
would not thus build cell which
would surround larva with untitled
corners. The hexagonal cell was bet
ter fitted for their needs. so they de-
veloped 1t.

faith in the eighteenth century, and
remain Catholics to-day. Though same
superstitions prevail, their belief in
the resurrection is strong. Believing
that the dead must remain for some
time in the grave, they observe exact
ly the hour at which the spirit departs,
and the rude wooden cross over each
grave in the cemetery states the exact
hour, minute and day on which the
person died. Suspended from the
arms of the cross is an alarm clock,
with the hands set at the particular
hour. The alarm at the back Of the
clock has been set at the same moment.
The person who placed the clock there
believes that at the proper moment the
alarm will sound and will awaken the

there was halt. It was there that the

Mr.. Kenney has actually escaped from
the paralytic s fate to which he seemed {
short time ago hopelessly doomed. Tht
surprising report has been fully verified
and some important details secured in 9
personal interview with the recent suf

"The doctor, " said Mr.. Kenney, "told
me that if wanted to live any length
of time I would have to give up work al.
together, and he told my friends that
the paralysis which had begun would in
time involve my whole body. /"
Just how were you afflicted at this
time 2" Mr.. Kenney was asked.
"Well, / had first hot, and then cold
and clammy feelings, and at times my
body felt as if needles were being stuck
into it. These sensations were followed
by terrible pains, and again Iwould have
no feeling at all, but q nuinbHess would
come over me, and would not be able to
move. The most agonizing tortures came
from headaches and pain in the spine.
Night after night could not get my
natural sleep and my system was wrecked
by the strain of torturing pains and the
effect Of the opiates ! was forced to take
to induce sleep. As ! look back on the
terrible suffering / endured during this
