Morales.

Morales, late president of Santo Domingo
deserves some credit for his rapidity of &C
ton, whatever criticism may be leveled at
him on other scores. Finding himself at
outs with his cabinet, hampered by dis
position on the part of his own party to go
counter to his wishes, he escapes from the
palace. He organizes revolution in his
own behalf, veritabe curiosity of a revo
luton, indeed in that it is aimed to down
the government which Morales himself had
installed by virtue of an instruction. This
Ightnlng-change artist gets himself shot in
the leg by stray ball from a government
gun. That is another oddly, differenti-
ating this Morales ruction from the usual
run 1t is quite contrary to rule to wound
anybody in of these affairs. Then
Morales, finding himself disabled and han
dicapped in the revolving business, decides
that there is no place so safe as the sacred
soil of the United States. Being crippled
and without a boat, he cannot land upon
the actual territory of Uncle Sam, so he
does the neH$ best thing and takes shelter
beneath the American flag, flying over the
legation of this country. That is good
enough American soil for Morales, and it
serves as we'll as the sands of Florida or the
asphalt of New York city. Next, deciding
that there is nothing in revolutions anyhow,
the hobbled Morales, grateful to escape with
merely a broken bone, accepts an offer to
land him in Porto Rico by way of an Amer
lean gunboat. To give the Dominican gov
eminent good measure of assurance against
immediate Instruction he takes with him
as companion the redoubtable Enrique Jim
inez. with whom he was trying to revolute
his former associates out of office. So now
Santo Domingo is free. for the time, from
the unwelcome presence OF both Morales
and Jimnez. Who will deal the next hand
of trouble to the Dominican administration?

Mid-Sea Jokes.

How rapidly conditions change in these
days of remarkable mechanical improve
ments, discoveries. inventions and wonder
workingsi A few years ago the joker on
shipboard had a free range for the exercise
of his wits during the days of passage. He
could circulate reports and surreptitiously
post bulletins about the course of events on
land, and have great fun with his fellow
passengers without causing any uneasiness.
But nowadays with most of the large liners
equipped with the wireless system. the prac-
teal joker runs a grave risk of rough ham
ding by his companions. No longer is 1t
certain that a mid-ocean statement about
something that has just happened on land is
to be stamped as fake The ship may be
in communication with the shore or with
another ship at any moment. The wireless
apparatus works silently. The receiving
wire the masthead may be taking in mes
sages from far over the horizon when there
is sail in sight.
A fellow of lightsome wit thought he
would have some fun with the other pas
sengers on the Baltic the other day while
she was far out at sea, and he posted three
bulletins one morning which set the gos-
sips to wagging their tongues and caused
some of the financial magnates on board to
move rapidly toward the telegraph Office.
One of these reports was comparative
harmless 1t was that Miss Roosevelt had
married Mr. Longworth ahead of the
schedule Another shocked the passengers
by announcing that Thomas W. Lawson
had killed himself. The third nearly caused
a panic in the shipboard financial circles.
1t was to the effect that Japan had notified
Germany that the troops of the kaiser must
be removed at once from China and that
grave crisis was pending. This suggestion
of war, with all it's financial ills, pre-
cipitated such state OF feeling that inves-
tigation was set afoot, and resulted in the
disavowal of all three of the bulletins. The
practical joker was not discovered. or he
might have suffered severely.
No recent incident more clearly Illus
trates the new conditions upon which ocean
travel is now conducted. A man is in
touch with the shore virtually from the
time he sails until he lands. His ship is
likely to pick up a message at any hour
from a distant vessel, briefly relating the
latest happening on land, while for a long
distance out at sea it is possible for every
body on board to get the days news di-
rectly from land. In time probably every
vessel will be so equipped to remain in
communication with the land from the start
to the finish of her voyage. In these cir
cumstances 1t would seem as though the
danger of collision and some other forms
of sea disaster would soon be reduced to a
very small minimum.

Mr.. Hearst is making progress as a poll
tcian. He is learning the ropes and show
ing an increasing sense of the fitness of
things.
His latest appearance is as a hunter of big
game. He has been trying his hand in the
southwest on mountain lions. and exhibiting
both skill and nerve. The quarry proved
formidable, but was brought down. and a
fine skin goes to the dresser for treat
ment.
How does this touch politics? In this
way Mr. Hearst has been represented as
a man whose millions had removed him
from the palmer and more wholesome
sports of life. The public has been asked
to accept him as city-bred and ''citified,"
fond of the crowd and the luxuries of the
table, and all that. One of his supporters
in the mayoralty race last year complained
of this, and explained that his friend, so
far from being weakling and a sybarite,
was a muscular six-footer, who looked at
life whole, and loved plain things And so
Mr. Hearst takes his gun in hand to let
the public know that he is anything but
a tenderfoot or a Ioafer, but warns to
danger and a masculine time in the woods
and fields.
Observe, too, that his choice Of sport ap-
peals TO the west and southwest, where
he must look for whatever political fol-
lowing he may be able to muster In his
next national attempt. His way in the east
will continue difficult, except in the cities.
He is tagged in that quarter with much
that is obstructive. But the man who loves
the outdoor life and sports, who rides well,
shoots we'll, and relishes a dinner cooked
in a big iron pot hanging on a crane, cuts
a figure which the people of the mountains
and plains admire. And 1t is all the bet
ter for him if his stature is impressive, and
he carries his share of solid beef.
In 1903, therefore, We may look for a
new Hearst legend. The city moneybags
and sybarite will have disappeared, and a
sturdy and mighty hunter be held up to
view-a man who loves nature, and is IA
miliar with her in all her moods. The
number of his skins will multply-at least
in the campaign stories-and his hand-to-
paw grapples with big beasts be described
in a way to thrill every listener. The horn
of this hunter will be heard on many hills.

that case BY the publie-spirited citizens OF
the campaign for landscape preserya ton
A similar effort has been made in behalf or
the giant trees of California with a crafty
ing degree of success, although much re-
mains to be done to put an end absolutely
to the looting of the prlrneval forests which
stand with the wonders of the world. In
the same way is being conducted the strug-
gle to check the spoliation OF Niagara. which
is proceeding at disheartening rate. The
power plants have been multiplied on both
sides of the river. until there is a serious
danger that the cataract may be robbed or
enough of its water to lay bare the whole
of the American fall, and greatly diminish
the volume and beauty of the Canadian fall.
These iconoclastic enterprises shock the
sensibilities of the American people today
to much greater degree than in years past.
The rushing, needless spirit of utilitarian-
ism. the commercial appraisement OF every
thing In nature, from "A seQuoia which has
stood for a thousand years to a towering
cliff which inspires the wonder and evokes
the awe of all beho!ders has been much
modified as we have advanced In national
culture. We have for years put a dollar
mark upon the bounties of nature until
reason and now the reaction has come
fortunately in such strength as to promise
some degree of check upon the ravages of
the timber cutters. the stone crushers and
the power makers.

Enemies of Nature.

A decision has just been rendered by one
OF the state courts of Pennsylvania which
will greatly please all lovers of landscape
scenery in this country and all who have re-
sisted the despotling enterprises of CONNER
cIal interests. For some time a suit has
been pending to prevent the operation at
the Delaware Water Gap of a great stone
crusher erected by the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western railroad. The corpora
ton proposed to use this plant, which cost
about 100000 to produce all the ballast
needed on its line. There was rock in
abundance in the mountain wall through
which the river breaks at this point. The
crusher had begun to make an unsightly
breach in the face of the cliff. The hotel
keepers of the region. who depend upon the
resort business for profits, instituted the
legal proceedings which have just resulted
in victory for the compliments. The rail-
road will appeal 1t is reported. but the win
ming of the first stage of the case has elated
the hotelkeepers and will cause rejoicing in
all quarters where the inroads of the stone
breakers have threatened to destroy historic
landmarks.
