Roscoe G. Sutcliffe. who has fought
child-labor so successfully for sixteen
years, said recently in Dallas:
These employers of child-labor
seem to me to be lunatics. They fat
cen on tender little children, working
them eleven or twelve hours day,
stunning alike their bodies and their
minds; yet in nine cases out of ten
they are pious, church-going people,
and they assure you calmly that their
work benefits and gladdens the chill
dren instead of harming and sadden-
ing them.
"They remind one in their perfect
assurance Of my wife's niece, a child
Of nine.
MY wife's niece was once left in
charge of her baby brother for some
hours.
when the mother returned home,
the first sound she heard was the loud
yelling and squalling of the baby.
She ran upstairs at once.
What is the baby crying for?'
she said.

Swiss Doctors OF Journalism.

In view Of the proposed establish
ment of a university of journalism
in New York, the United States Con-

the present summer session lectures
on various aspects of journalism are
being delivered at the universities of
Leipsic, Berlin and Heidelberg, as
well as at the Technical High School
Of Danzig and at the commercial col

satisfaction were not uncommon

is expressed in the good faith of the

Doctor Recommends Postum From.

No one is better able to realize
the injurious action of caffeine the
drug in coffee on the heart, than the
doctor.
When the doctor himself has been
relieved by simply leaving OF coffee
ana using Postum, he can refer with
fun conviction to his own case.
A Mo. physician prescribes Postum
for many of his patients because he
was benefited by it. He says:

tablish peace, and the intention of
continuing the country's constitu-
tional course with it's own citizens up
to and after the new elections, which
shall determine the future permanent
native government of the island No
one was menaced; all were treasured.
The favorable reception Of the procla-
nation was universal and pro-
nounced.
No troops were landed The Cuban
flag remains flying in its accustomed
place, its courts are unchanged and
there is no disturbance of the usual
order of things. 1t had been planned
to land 1000 marines and jackies
from the feet in the harbor as soon
as it was learned that the Cuban Con-
gTess would not meet to elect sue
cessor to President Palma These
were to be camped in various open
places in the city for its protection.
But this plan was abandoned.
AT President Palma's request thirty
marines were sent from the Newark
to guard the Treasury, and this is
all the force that has been landed
The sight of large body of foreign
troops occupying their city was thus
saved the Cubans, and they appreciate
ed the fact and remained perfectly or
derby The feelings of some were
ready to be hurt, but the sight Of
their own flags all day and the abb
sence of a uniformed invader under
the circumstances made them happy
The liberation Of sixty-odd political
prisoners added TO the general salts
faction over the peaceful ending OF
an intolerable situation In the
change not the slightest friction oc-
Cured anywhere, and If in the hearts
of a few politicians who brought on
the downfall of the first republic
there is soreness, the great mass of
the people feel only joy at the pros
pect of a second more completely
safeguarded by their powerful friend
on the north.
The commission to superintend the
laying down of arms by the rebels
will visit all the rebel camps through
out the island 1t will also disarm
the volunteer forces of the Govern
ment, leaving the Cuban forces as
they existed prior to the rebellion.
The commission will be accompanied
ky a disbursing officer who will pay
the expenses of the return home of
the rebels and thus avoid any dissat-
isfaction.
Governor Taft received many
prominent Cubans, Including the
Mayor and municipal officers and SUI
gar growers and cattle breeders of
Camaguey The latter complained
to him that anarchy was rampant in
the Province OF Puerto Principe, that
many OF their cattle and horses had
been stolen, and that some women
had been assaulted. Captain Mccoy
assured them that American soldiers
would be there within week.
General Funston conferred with
Mr.. Taft regarding the location Of
the camps for the first division Of
the American troops to be landed
here. General Funston will COM
mand all the troops III Cuba, but If
they exceed the dimensions Of bril-
gade an officer OF higher rank viii be
sent from the United States 1t is
practically certain, however, that no
such contingency will arise, as Il is
apparent that the maintenance Of the
Provisional Government will not re-
quire large number OF troops.
