The Gold Wave.

BY good fortune this part of the country
has suffered less severely from the latest
cold wave than was feared. The tempera-
ture dropped with unusual suddenness, go
ing down from 81 degrees to the neighbor-
hood of zero. But luckily there was NJ
snow and only a moderate wind, so that
the low temperature could be endured WIN
out the danger that attends the blizzard.
1t is encouraging to learn that the west Is
supplying moderating conditions and that
by tomorrow the thermometer will rise
here.
Extremely low marks were recorded by
the mercury in many parts of the country
during this cold wave. and from several
southern cities come reports that indicate
conditions which may seriously affect the
crops. A sharp freeze in Florida Would
cost the orange and pineapple growers OF
that state vast sum in ruined plants and
trees
The warnings of flood dangers in the
Ohio valley are ominous. In the Potomac
watershed all appearances point to heavy
freshets when the snow melts in the hills
and the ice breaks and seeks an exit to the
sea. Unless the thaw comes gradually and
loosens the ice from the mouth of the river
the bridges is materially lessened, there is
reason to apprehend costly experience.
The Commissioners should in any event be
given an emergency fund with which they
can attack the gorges with dynamite or
open a channel with tugs at the earliest
opportunity.

country should not be allowed to go away
with a low estimate of the public spirit
of the Washingtonians. They are apt TO
judge from external appearances, and not
knowing of the sacrifices of time and en-
ergy which the business men so generously
make every four years to contribute TO the
success of the inaugurations, and the FISK
of their money in large sums to INSURE
satisfactory ceremonial, they are prone 10
measure the enterprise OF the capltai
residents solely by the aspect OF tneir
buildings. 1t is well to take account oi
this disposition and to add slightly TO the
outlay. Let the city look it's best on the
4th of March It is in the eyes OF the
whole country then and it is important TO
impress favorably the people from the
states, who are today more intelllgently
interested in the capitals welfare than ever
before.

Inauguration Street Decorations.

Much of the artistic success of the in
auguration ceremonials depends upon the
manner in which the individual citizens of
the capital decorate their homes and places
of business on that occasion. OF recent
years the labor of the street decoration has
been organized to ensure the best possible
results. to the extent that the household
ers and business men follow the general
scheme adopted and comply with the re-
quests of the committees in charge This
year a special effort is being made to Sc
cure the best showing. The citizens are
being urged to adopt waterproof decora-
lions so that in the event of wet weather,
such as early March often brings the
house fronts will not present a bedraggled,
sodden appearance wholly out of harmony
with the holiday spirit.
For a very slight add zion to the cost of
the draperies the house decorations can be
made impervious to the weather Be the
day wet or fair the streets will be tidy
and the general effect not unattractive. An
undecorated front is even better than one
that has been covered with cheap prints
which a shower will wash to a smeary
stain. good quality of American flags
can be bought at no great expense and they
can be saved and utilized on the many
occasions when Washington assumes its
festal attire. They make an economical
investment and most appropriate decora-
ton.
BY needing the advice of the committee
on street decorations. which has given the
matter careful thought the business men
whose places are on the line of march will
be able with a minimum of cost to attain
maximum results. 1t is especially desirable
that Pennsylvania avenue should be strik-
ingIy attractive. 1t is expected that a
record breaking crowd will be here. These

In his speech at the Lincoln dinner in this

earnest and eloquent plea for the esta b.

ored men and the whites of the south 1t
is well that the best men of the south are
fully awakened to the fact that the mid
night rides of regulators and the burning
OF colored murderers at the stake hurt the
interests of the white people of the Iawless
regions far more than they terroriZe the

The Evening Paper.
aymond. in Printers Ink

In the east in recent times the evening
newspaper has become decidedly more inn
portant and of increased weight. We have
scarcely a morning paper in the country
which, in these respects, approaches the
Boston Transcript and the Washington
Star; and the Chicago News can be rated
with them, into which class enters also the
Philadelphia Bulletin, the Brooklyn Eagle,
the Baltimore News, the Indianapolis News,
the Detroit News and the New York Even
ing Post.

THE ISLE or PINES.
Secretary Of state Root Says That Il
Belongs To Cuba.

Washington, Nov. 29.-Secretary
Root has addressed letter to Charles
Raynard, president OF the American
society OF the Is'e Of Pines, stating
positively that In his judgment the
Isle OF Pines belongs to Cuba. and
strongly advising the Americans there
to submit themselves to Cuban law.
In his letter the secretary says:
There is no procedure by which you
and your associates can lawfully estab-
fish a territorial government In that
island. The island Is lawfully sub
jet 20 the control and government OF
the republic OF Cuba and you and your
associates are bound to render obedi-
ence TO the laws OF that country. 80
long as you remain In the island. II
you fail In that obedience you will be
Justly liable to prosecution In the Gu
ban courts and 90 such punishment as
may be provided by the laws Of Cuba
for such Offense as you commit"

IDEAS

Ingratitude is one Of the worst Of
crimes. Ii is not only an ofense
against the one TO whom gratitude is
due, but il is also a crime against
ones own soul. and this is the worse
crime OF the two.
"What shall ] render unto the
Lord" asks the Psalmist. "for all bis
benefits toward meY" He finds but
one answer: IL will take the cup Of
salvation aud call upon the name Of
the Lord. viii pay my VOWS now,
in the presence Of all the people
The one who has no grounds for
thankiulncss il one who has loved
selfsupremely. "Iie that would save
his life shall lose IT," He who eats
his cake in secret, dividing not with
his brother, finds bitterness on his
lips and in his throat He il is who
finds no cause for thanksgiving.
BLESS the Lord, O my soul. and
forget not all his benefits -

FROM the WIDE WORLD

A cable dispatch says that the
allied neet has arrived at the island
Of Mitylene We are also informed
that the heads Of departments in the
Turkish government. or what passes
for a government in Turkey, are very
much excited. The next move j.
awaited with much interest. The
Powers have twice meddled when
Russia has attempted 30 bring order
out OF the chaos Of Turkish affairs,
and now il is hoped they will do
something themselves.
The most interesting foreign news
this week is from Russia, as has been
the case for several weeks past. The
men Of the Black Sea fleet on shore
duty have revolied and either killed
or imprisoned their officers. Some
Of the infantry stationed at Sebasto.
pol has gone over TO the mutineers.
The sailors thus far have comported
themselves well, but the city is panic
stricken and the inhabitants are
fleeing.
The mutiny Of the sailors at Sc.
bastopal and the revolt Of an entire
regiment Of troops has created the
greatest alarm in Russian government
circles and no attempt is made to
disguise the seriousness of the situa.
;ion. A cabinet meeting has been
called at St Petersburgh, but nothing
definite has been decided upon.
News comes from Russian sources
that the japanese assumption Of con
troll of Korea was simply a "holdup."
II is claimed that the signatures of
the Emperor and his advisors were
secured by military coercion Our
Government, however, recognizes the
de-facto government OF Korea, and
will henceforth conduct affairs relat
ing TO that country through the
japanese legation.
The Americans who settled on the
Isle Of Pines in anticipation of that
island becoming United States terri
tory are now in revolt. They claim
they are neglected by Cuba in every.
thing but the collection of taxes.
