watched the pallor surmount his face
and the agonized contractions Of his
muscles until he dropped to the floor

which he drank last night with suici-

he had taken the poison, and she stood
by his side too frightened to move un--
til after her husband was dead.

POLITICAL PARTIES DRIFTING.
Leaders in Russia Are at Sea as 70
What to Do.

= st. Petersburg, Aug. 22.lIn spite Of
wholesale arrests and deportation of
revolutionsts in the big centers, the
daily chronicle of murder and robbery
is not appreciably diminishing. The
police seem utterly powerless to cap
ture the perpetrators of the crimes.
While revolutionary opposition to the
government has thus degenerated into
a campaign of crime, the three polit-
ical parties, constitutional democrats,
octobersts, and regenerationists, are
drifting. Efforts to effect amalgama-
ton have failed, and all the leaders

CUBAN INsURREcTloN.

PRESIDENT Palma says that the out
break In Cuba is not as bad as some
may think, and that the bands of in
surrectlonists are not as large as has
been reported AS is SO often the case
ne was caught unprepared for such a
situation, he says. A little time will
be taken to get ready to cope with the
marauders and then the work of put
ting down the disturbing element will
go on in earnest.
There is undoubtedly some dissatis-
FACTION with the election and admits
tratlon OF the present president. There
always is. Much of this comes from
men who desire to hold Office and are
disappointed. 1t is S" even in the
United States. But Palma's govern
ment is the government and it should
prevail in peace if possible. but by
force If necessary, until the new ad.
minlstration is chosen under the Cuban
constitution.
II the president has the situation
sized up correctly he will undoubtedly
be able to put down the insurrection
with little difficulty as soon as he gets
prepared for the fray If he can not,
the property interests of the United
States are sufficient there to warrant
Uncle Sam in taking hand in the
matter and settling it right

suits might have been expected They
had appropriated millions for the pur-
pose of keeping their competitors from
turning the tourist traffic to some other
direction. They have always spent
literally to boom California as both a
winter and summer resort, and large
appropriations from the funds of the
great western lines have been added
to the amounts available for the adver-
Using departments.
Now, when the advertising business
is at its height, when circulars and
maps and booklets and innumerable
other Advertising novelties are being
spread broadcast over the United
States, especially in the east and
north, there comes another shock that
seems bound to hit San Francisco. The
great disaster on the northern coast
was being looked upon as "once in a
lifetime" or longer, and people were
calmly returning to build up a greater
city where the ashes of old San Fran
cisco lay. But the news from Valpar-
also adds new terror to those who
nave gone through 1t once, and raises
new and, greater fear in those who
have viewed them from the distance.
The mystery of 1T all will play its
part too in the effect upon the rebuild
ing Of the destroyed cities If it was
known that the fire was caused by a
COW kicking over a lantern, there
would be less caution in going ahead
with the rebuilding But scientists,
while they claim to know the causes,
are unable to give any idea of how
often such things may be looked for
except to say, anytime"
Advice was given years ago against
the building of great cities on the
Pacific coast, the disaster being fore.
told by the scientists. But the risk
was taken and it will undoubtedly be
taken to great If not greater extent
in the future.

attend to the telephone. These clerks
and these telephones cost money. In
the course of time the things ordered
are brought up in nicely painted wa
gon, driven by gentlemanly employee.
These wagons and these employees cost
money. Not SO many years ago there
were neither telephones nor employees
to answer them, nor delivery wagons
with gentlemanly drivers. People went
down town after what they wanted
and carried their things home with
them in market basket. Twenty
years ago a refrigerator was luxury.
So were furnaces. Gas and electric
lights were either unknown or only to
be found in the homes of the rich. The
difference between ice and no ice is
considerable. 1t costs three times as
much to run a furnace as 1t does a
stove. And yet in our comparisons we
are apt to consider only the cost Of liv-
ing, without giving any thought what
soever to the living itself Therefore
people talk glibly about the continued
increase in the cost !, f living, and they
declare that something is wrong. The
facts are that living for living we are
living more cheaply than we have ever
