CUBAN RECORDS.
All of the Official Documents Disposed
OF.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. %
After having carefully stored for years
the official records of the occupation
Of Cuba, and having paid $500 year
for such storage, the government to-
day turned over the entire mass of
documents to the wastepaper man.
From these records many costly, if
not valuable volumes have been COM
piled and printed at public expense,
and the general opinion was that the
original records were worthy of pres
ervation. If for nothing more, they
would be valuable in that they pre-
sent the exact facts regarding Gen.
Leonard Woods expensive regime in
that island According to the results
of the congressional investigation, that
regime was also worth all it cost.

ever, the Old Dominion sought permission to
use about two miles of the pike. BY 1.-The
permission just granted the company will
be able to go round the property of the

Judge Aspsnwall was most bitter in his
denunciation OF the prisoners crimes, and

Continuing, Judge Aspinwal said to Carl

''You are at heart villain, murderer

DIR. HARPER,s CASE HOPELESS.
Declared He Could Not Survive Serious
Operation.

Dr. Billings OF Chicago has refused to
perform an operation on DIR. w. r. Harper
to remove the large intestines. according
to an official of the Chicago University.
DR. Billings believes. with DIR. Nicholas
Sem. that DIR. Harper could not survive SO
serious an operation said the official "A
slight operation may be made to relieve
his pain, which is intense, but DR.. Harper
has not the vitality to withstand anything
more serious
There is now little hope on the campus
that the president of the university will
ever again take charge OF university af-
fairs. and speculation as to his successor
has begun.
Realization of the seriousness Of DIR. Har-
per's Illness was increased today by the
return from Moscow of DIR. Samuel Harper,
the presidents son. Young DIR. Harper was
In Chicago at the time Of the operation on
his father last February. but went back to
Russia April !. believing the disease had
been checked. y
The young mans return was not expect
ed by fhe students of the university. 1t Is
attributed to the rapid progress made by his
fathers Illness. The young man has been
elected instructor of Russian at the univer-
sify.

Mr.. West, II have always admired the
German race in America. and fully realize
the value OF the German-American citizen.
Although my hearers are of different blood
than myself, yet l have one point in COM
mon with you, and that is that We are
both Americans. The German race is first
and foremost for liberty. and essentially
patriotic. and though their racial allegiance
belongs 10 the fatherland. still the German
American citizen is an American. true and
loyal to the core. yet retaining his love and
reverence for the fatherland."
Some Trotting Races.
The sport of the day was opened with
trotting races. None of these proved to be
very close. but the crowds nevertheless
y7lled for the favorites and became almost
o. excited as II they had been neck and
neck. The Duke owned by NJ. Morris and
driven by Neale. won the Glass A race in
two straight heats, and Clara Winks.
driven by Corbin and the property OF Geo.
Duckett, was winner In Glass b In three
heats. There was first and seconI money
I'm each class. The most exciting part OF
this sport was the neck and-neck finish OF
Joe ID. and Mamie d. in Glass A, the for
mer winning second place by very scant
margin.
