There is dear little 9-year-old sun
sinner in Truman, Mimi, who wishes to
brighten the life of some little baby.

month or six weeks to enjoy the sun
shine and pleasant surroundings of their
country home.

Just for Today.
Lord, for tomorrow and its needs
do not pray;
Keep me from stain and sin and wronS
Just for today.
Let me both diligently work
And duly pray;
Let me be kind in word and deed
Just for today.
Let me be swift to do thy will,
Prompt to obey;
Help me to sacrifice myself
Just for today.
Let me no wrong or idle word
minimizing say;
Set thou a seal upon my lips
Just for today.
So, for tomorrow and its needs
do not pray;
But keep me, guide me, hold me, Lord,
Just for today.

Cbarge Against The President.

Detroit, March Is. Professor Hugo
Munsterberg, head of the psychology
Department OF Harvard University,
friend of President Roosevelt, created a
sensation at dinner given by the Cos
mopoliian Club, by assailing all Re-
publican forms of government. He de-
clared that President Roosevelt had told
him, II regard the Declaration OF INDIE
pendence as made up of glittering genera.
Iities. You will never hear me quote
the Declaration Of Independence" The
professor asked the reporters present not
TO quote him on this. He was bitterly
disputed by other speakers, who refased
to believe that President Roosevelt had
uttered such an expression.
Washington, March 1S.-At the
White House today the assertion of Prof.
Munsterburg at Detroit that President
Roosevelt had characterized the Decla-
ration Of Independent as being made up
of glitteriDg geueralities was declared to
be too absurd to be worth dignifying by
q denial.

IN HIS SPEECH during the Santo Do
miugo debate in the Senate yesterday
Mr.. Spooner, addressing the democratic
side, said
However we may have differed about
the wisdom of the acquisition of the
Philippines and as to the policy to bepur-
sued there. there is one proposition on
which we will not differ, and that Is,
that there is no government in the world
which can take from the United states
IN the east or in the west anything which
belongs to as.
Mr.. Spooner should not De too opti-
mistic. War is as uncertain as politics
and Japan, now "world power is
near the Philippines, while the United
States is ten thousand miles away. Rus
ala has five times the population oil the
United States and a year ago but few
people believed that Japan could sue
cessfully cope with that nation. Yet,
Russia in a twelve months war has been
whipped on land and "a sea by her willy
adversary. The United States would be
at decided disadvantage with Japan in
a war in OF near the Philippines, and a
war with that country is not TO be courted
or lightly entered into.

Cordoya Sentenced

New Brunswick, N. ]. March Is. -
Judge Strong this morning sentenced
J. Frank Cordova, the deposed Metbo-
dist minister, TO four years in state pri-
son, one year for abandoning his wife
aud three children and three years for
assaultng his wife, making four years
in all. Miss Bovine was not 10 court,
but her father and brother Edward were
Cordova took the sentence without a
tremor of face and was led back to jail
Lawyer II. B. Cook, for Cordova, inn
mediately filed with the court a petition
for a writ of error which stays COrdova
from going to state prison until the writ
is argued. The time he spends in Jail
here counts on his state prison term.
The Supreme Court will not hear the
argument until June, when they will
have their next sitting. The costs will
keep Ccrdoya in prison an extra year,
but what he gets OF for good behaviour
will equal this, so that his term will be
four years in all on these two charges.
Lawyer Cook, on filing the two writs of
error, asked for bail. Judge Strong
fixed no amount, but will decide this
matter in a few days. Lawyer Cook
intimated that CordOva will get bail and
he will renew his motion next Wednes-
day. The bail will be at least SO, 1000.

Rinfons Strikers.

Girl leaders have escorted hundreds
of frightened strike-breakers TO safety
from the big clothing factories in she
Wholesale district Of Chicago which were
besieged by 400 garment-worker pickets.
The employers adopted this strategy
successfully when it was feared the
police would be unable 20 prevent &
serious clash between the union and
non.union factions. From the work
rooms OF the international Tailoring
Company and OF Fred kaufman, the
young women marched through crowds
OF ieering strikers without fiinching.
Behind them we're the men employees.
After it was thought the disturbances
were ended, plate glass windows valued
at $500, in the offices of Lamm & Co. !,
were shattered by strikers who sought
revenge for the arrest of rioting pickets
an kour earlier. Solomon LoriDg,
Joseph Manda and Max Feldman,
pickets, were arrested, after Emil Win
mes, a non-union worker and Waterman,
employed by the firm had been beaten
severely. An hour later bottles and
cobble stones were hurled through the
windows on the street level aud much
damage was caused in the interior of the
place. The police assert the bottles
contained acids, intended to destroy
clothing material. Several shots were
fired at the aeeing vandals By private
but the men escaped.

Fifty-ninth Congress.
Washington, March is.
SENATE.

When the Senate met this morning II
was with the expectation that today
would be the last of the special session
of the body.
Senator Teller's resolution calling
upon the President for copies of all in
structions sent 10 Minister Dawson aud
Commander Dillingham;, relating to
Dominican affairs, was taken up.
Senator Teller urged its adoption He
said that he had heard that there was
great danger that Germany was about to
interyine in Santo Domingo, but he de-
elared that mere fiction. lie said, be
had read an interview with assistant
Secretary of State Loomis, in which it
WAS stated that imminent peril was
threatening. If there was anything in
that, the Senate surely ought to know
more about it.
Senator Daniel also favored the adop-
ton OF the resolution saying that public
ily was one OF our institutions and that
information was more necessary before
than after dealing with subject.
Senator Lodge opposed the resolution,
saying that the Senate ought not to ask
the President for anything which it knew
in advance, he must refuse in whole or
in part. There were people, he said,
who in such a case would not be slow to
charge that he was keeping back incrim-
mating documents, when In reality he
was merely observing the ordinary deem
cies of international intercourse. Mr..
Carmack asked Mr. Lodge whether be
meant to infer that the Senate or the
public would distrust the Presidents
trulhfullness and Mr.. Lodge, in disclaim-
ing any such inference, said that the
opinion entertained by the pnblic or the
President had been demonstrated to
forciby TO ALLOW any such construction
of his remarks.
Mr.. Teller laid stress upon The fact
that the President, could as so may
other Presidents have done, announce
that certain information in his possession
could moi be sent TO the Senate without
being incompatible with the public in.
terest He said that we never had had
a President whe was not brave enough 10
say that and that we had never had
Senate mean enough TO criticise him
for it.
After some further decision by Sena-
tors Morgan and German, the motion
made by Senator CullOm TO refer the
Teller resolution to the committee on
foreign relations was adopted. Senator
Cullom then moved an executive session
aud refused to give way to Senator Nor
gan's request for the consideration of the
resolution of inquiry which he had offer
ed in yesterdays session. At LILO the
doors we're closed.
AT 2:i0 this sfternoon the Senate
appointed a committee to wait upon the
President and inform him that the Sem
ate is now ready to adjourn, not having
been able to reach a conclusion on the
Santo Domingo treaty having no further
business to transact.
A S:S9 the Senate adjourned sine die.

Nor ONLY republics but empires
are ungratefu. General KurOpatkin,
the old idol of the private soldier has
been dismissed and disgraced and Cen
eral Liaevitch, commander of the First
Army, is appointed to succeed him in
command of all the Russian land and sea
forces operating against Japan. Kuro-
patkin is ordered home at once. The
word disgrace, it is said, is written in
large letters ia the laconic imperial order
gazetted, which contains not a single
word of praise, and also dispOses of the
rumor that Kuropatkin had asked to be
relieved. The Russian military annals
contain no more bitter imperial rebuke.
General Kuropatkin for months past has
fought what many believe to be the
finest army ever placed in the field,
more numerous and better equipped and
provisioned than his cwn, but he has
been defeated and must bear the brunt
of his defeat, though it is said by mill
tary experts that few men could have
done better than he. When a man is
down ii human nature for others to
jump upon him.

Attacked hY q Lnnatic.

John White, an employee at the North
American Chemical Company's plant, at
Bay City, Mich, was discovered unconsci-
Gus and bleeding near his work Wednesday
night. On recovering consciousness he told
sensational tale of a half hours battle
with an unknown masked lNpatic who
attacked him With butcher knife.
White says that the masked man en-
tered the room where he was working,
and told him that he was going to kill
him. He then produced a butcher knile
and took after him. White jumped
over large potash pans, followed by his
pursuer. Three times the weapon was
brought down on the fugitive, once on
the heshy part of his right leg, another
time across the left arm and a third
stroke cut large hole in his cap. White
finally made dash for the door, closely
pursued. The man with the mask fol-
loved him 300 yards and then disap-
peared in the darkness.
