When MaIIoch and his wife were
married there were5reasons why they
could mot go on a honeymoon, SO they
,contented themselves with getting the
house all ready for their coming after
the pastor had made them man and
wife. So interested was Mrs: NAL
loch that she had even planned that
first breakfast. She would arrange the
table Just SO with the new breakfast
set, place a fresh bouquet Of roses In
the center and prepare the daintiest
meal that ever a bride set for the de-
location of her lord.
The morning after the wedding, she
was up bright and early and at that
breakfast. When It was ready she
called Ma1loch. He seemed a bit con,
strained about something, and she
glanced apprehenstvely at the table.

BABIES IN HOLES.
Where Uganda Infants Rest While
Their Mothers Hoe.

I have gone into a field in Uganda
and there found one Of our women at
work with a hoe, writes a missionary
sister in DOnahOe's. asked her where
her baby Maria was, and she pointed
to spot at some distance where the
banana trees were thick. I walked
under the shade, and in vain l sought
the infant. The mother was greatly
amused and urged me to search fur
Their, assuring me that the little one
was not far away and was fast asleep.
l had to give up" so the mother took
me by the hand and led me to bit Of
bark cloth ON the ground. Under this
rag was the crown Of the baby's head,
while the body was in hole deep
enough for the feet to rest on the
ground. To my surprise and eXpostu-
lations she said in her own language:
This is a good custom. When a
Uganda woman goes to hoe it is not
good for her baby to lie asleep on the
ground, as it might injure itself by
rolling, or, if it awoke, it might crawl
away. Therefore we make hole like
this and line it with soft, clean leaves
and put our baby safely into it so that
it can neither crawl out nor roll away,
and we know exactly where to find it
when we come from the fields" She
said it was perfectly safe from wild
beasts, because it was midday.

In the High Sierras.

Coming 'down from the high Sierras
into the Yosemite valley one passes
from almost arctic cold to the warmth
of the late spring, and the difference in
temperature is easily traceable by the
character of the foliage. On the high
peaks no green thing flourishes. Grad
ually stunted pines and tamaracks ap-
pear, and still lower the maple and
laurel are just beginning. to unfold
their leaves, and then in half day.
journey the wild flowers come. Hun
dreds and hundreds Of them of all
shapes and colors are found here, and
as you approach the rim Of the wonder
full Yosemite the air is heavy laden
with the scent Of the azaleas, and the
trail is lined with wild lilac, wild cher
~ and dogwood-a perfect riot Of flow
ering shrubbery.

BIGELOW AND THE SENATE.

In considering the case of Poultney
Bigelow it is we'll to bear in mind that
the most incompetent person in the
world may criticise the most compe-
tent man in the world,
Recently Governor Magoon sent to
the president to be transmitted by
him to congress a detailed statement of
what had been done by the commits
sion toward perfecting the sanitary ar
engagements in the canal strip. He de-
clared that the work had been taken
up by the whole force at hand and had
practically superseded work on the
canal itself as a necessary prelimin-
airy to digging. He added that this
work was now done. The zone was
protected from yellow fever and the
existing cases had been reduced to a
minimum. The chances of life on the
isthmus, he believed, were now as
good as anywhere in America, where
men We're required to do hard manual
labor under a semitropical sky. These
statements are from responsible Off
Ger of the government They are In
dorsed by the secretary of war, who
personally visited the canal strip just
before the beginning of the session of
congress.
Now Genes one Poultney Bigelow a
press correspondent of some note, WHO
deposes and says that these state
ments are lies; that the canal strip is
in hopeless condition from a sani-
tary point of view; that men are
housed in swamps; that engineers re-
fuse employment because the sanitary
conditions are vile. Pressed for his
authority for these statements, Mr.
Bigelow Electrically tells the senate
committee he will go to Jail rather
than give them up.
1t is proper enough for a CORE
spondent to refuse to expose persons
who give him information, but when
such information is given the CORE
spondent usually tries to verify it by
personal observation or by seeking to
have it confirmed from a source which
ne can name. Mr.. Bigelow apparent
ly has not done this. His stay on the
isthmus was not long enough to en-
able him to form reliable opinion. He
is under grave suspicion of having
fired recklessly or else of concealing
information of vital Importance to con-
gress. We rather incline to the opin-
ion that Mr., Bigelow has gone off at
halfcock; that he has no knowledge
of any value of conditions on the 18TH
mus and that the senate will not dig
nifty him by putting him in Jail or by
paying any more attention to him.

But it happened in the White House.
Had it happened in the senate chamber
and had the president senta communal
cation to the senate demanding an
explanation Of this assault upon
American motherhood" we can imag-
inc the shrieks of indignation with
which SUCH a message would have been
received by this same Tillman. The
senate and house have annually grave
discussions over bills to protect the
life of the president. The White
House staff has made the commonest
rules regarding the matter of seeing
the executive In carrying out these
rules some mistake Of judgment seems
to have been made in the Morris case.
1t is unnecessary to assume that Mrs.
Morris was a crank or a dangerous
person, but it is plain that her insist
ence upon seeing the president was
out of the ordinary and beyond that of
a reasonable person and 1T may Well
have fired some employees with the
imagination of a danger to the life
which they are sworn to protect and
defend. Granting these premises
which easily grow out of the circum-
stances, and the Morris incident is
fully explained. 1t is easy to criticize
the manner in which she was re-
moved from the executive offices, but
to assert that there was deliberate
intention to do Mrs. Morris bodily
harm of to insult an American woman
is the merest vaporing.
Mr. Tillman is entitled to his opin-
ion of the individual Theodore Roose-
welt, but he has no right as a senator
of the United States to humiliate the
office of president of the United
States. This is an offense against the
people.

The situation is seldom quite as ba6

that recognizes this truth and takes

class Of fortunates.

Gutturals predominant In Norway
and Russia, whereas far to the south
ward in sunny Italy there is profu-
sion of such euphonious names as Pa
lermo. Verona, Campobello, etc. Even
In the British isles, covering SO few de-
yrees of latitude, there Is a marked
difference between the "bur" Of the
highlander and the soft speech Of the
native of southern England
A theory which may partly account
for these climatic effects Is based
upon the contrast Of the stiffness which
usually pervades southern lands with
the stormy inquietude of northern
countries. Cloudless skies for months
at time characterize the climates Of
Italy, while a armament entirely free
from clouds is rare in Norway.
It requires, Of course, greater effort
to be heard in the regions which are
swept by winds and storms than in
still southern ATTITUDES, and to be
heard distinctly amid the noise and
confusion Of the elements words must
be used which contain many conso-
nants.
Among the inhabitants of more trop-
ical climes the tendency is toward
soft and musical cadence, and travel
ers relate that in regions in South
America, such as Peru and Venezuela,
where atmospheric disturbances are
rare, the natives almost chant the
day Review.

During the French revolution priest

The marquis smiled proudly, but the

had one when it sat down on that in
sufferable bundle of bombast, Tillman
made the excuse of a resolution OF in
quiry into the Morris incident at the
White House the vehicle for a ram
bling assault upon the president The
effort was incoherent and undignified

was to make the senators who We're

Caesars Appearance.

Julius Caesar was a thin man, tall
and with very wrinkled, seamy
countenance. His forehead was broad
and full Of wrinkles. His eyes were not
large, but described as exceedingly
bright and quick. His nose was Of
more than usual size and his chin full
and prominent. He walked with a
slight. scholarly stoop in his shoulders.
His ears stood out we'll from his head,
and his hair was always cut close.
Early in life he became bald.

Homemade Cold Cure.

For colds which are so prevalent at
this season of the year there is no bet
ter remedy than laxseed as often as
the cough becomes troublesome. To one
heaping tablespoonful Of flaxseed allow
a tumbler and half of cold water.
Boil them together until the liquid be-
comes quite sticky. Then strain it over
a quarter of a pound Of sugar and an
ounce of gum arabic. Stir until thor
