TAFT IN CONTROL IN CUBA.

An American provisional govern
ment assumed possession of Cuba Sat
urday when War Secretary Taft's
proclamation declaring himself pro-
visional governor of the island was
formally issued. The terms of the
proclamation caused general satisfac-
ton, especially on account of the mod
crate terms in which it is phrased.
The statement is plainly made that
the provisional government of Cuba is
undertaken only on account of the ne
cessities Of the situation and the proc
lamation promises that the provisional
government will be maintained purely
for the purpose of restoring peace,
order and public confidence until a
permanent government is established.
Secretary Taft has cabled from Ha-
vana to Acting Secretary Oliver at the
war department to send the American
troops to Cuba in accordance with the
programme already arranged. 1mme-
diately on receipt Of the dispatch Mr..
Oliver issued orders for the departure
Of $500 troops from Newport News as
soon as possible.
The first American troops will be
landed at Havana next Saturday.
Meantime, the marines and blue
Jackets from the American feet in
Cuban waters will protect American
interests and support Secretary Taft,
provisional governor of Cuba, in pre-.
serving order and protecting life and
property.
Secretary Taft has available nearly
5000 marines and bluejackets who
could be landed on Cuban soil in a
few hours in case of emergency. Other
marines are enroute to Cuba and will
be available for emergency service in
two or three days.
An additional force of 1900 marines
and 1000 bluejaokets has been sent to
Cuba. With those on warships al
ready in the vicinity the United States
will be in position to land 1000 men.
The first landing of any considerable
number of Americans in Cuba took
place Sunday night, when $50 marines
went ashore at Havana. This force
proceeded for Cienfuegos.

AN OLD PIONEER
LEAVES VALLEY.
Harlem, Mont, April 6, 1906.

HERALD, Hayre, Montana.--On OF
the hardest things | have had to do
this spring was to bid goodbye and
Godspeed today to the old pioneer and
settler, Will Mcconnell, who with his
estimable wife and family leave for
Wilmington, Ohio, TO make their
| future home.
AS one of the first settlers in the
valley at this point and prominently
connected with its Development, he
has made acquaintance in all parts Of
the county, and those like myself are
very sorry to see them leave us.
In making the bitches that have
changed the valley from Yantic to
Wayne from sagebrush wastes to
meadows and farms, q prcdigiOus
work was accomplished, as the set tiers
had to support families and build
homes, and this took time from the
ditch work, and Mcconnell, like the
rest, has been cowboy, or freighter, or
anything else that would earn an
honest dollar to buy feed for the team,
or clothes and food for the family, and
wherever he labored, he was the same
tireless and CHEEKY worker and helper.
The Harlem people did themselves
proud in their farewell reception, and
while it brings tears to the eyes of the
old timers, who had marched day in
and day out with tired limbs and
aching backs between scraper handles
to build the scores, possibly hundreds
of miles OF main ditch and laterals,
they also recall the innumerable
pleasant occasions Of social recreation
in which he and his amiable wife took
leading part.
I am sure the HERALD family send
their good will with mine aud others,
for if you did not labor behind the
scraper, you labored at the press and
case encouraging those who did, re-
ceiving the meagre pay that over
worked and not paid pioneers could
give in hopes of future reward that
the valleys development would give.
1t is too bad that after Is or more
years Of unremitting toll and just at
a point when our successes should
begin, that we see the old timers let
60 one by one either in death or re-
moyal, but in the case before us he
goes with good health and energy to
new fields, where we all shall hope to
hear of his and their prosperity.

Now that watches are carried al
most universally, any man who has
one has an excellent compass if the
sun can be seen. All that you have
to do to turn your watch into a COM
pass is to take it from your pocket
and hold it so that the hour hand will
point towards the sun, when line
from the center of the watch, bisect-
ing the space between the hour hand
and the figure II will point directly
south. To illustrate, you are hunting
or something and have lost your bear
ings. You take out your watch and
find it is four o'clock. You hold it so
that the hour hand points to the sun.
The figure 2 is hat way between II
and 4 and line drawn from the
center over is south. Knowing one
point of the compass you can easily
determine the rest.

The idea of converting an insight
ly back yard, strewn with ashes and
tin cans, into a little bower of frag-
rance and beauty is one that appeals
TO the imagination and affords health
giving exercise as well as an infinite
amount of pleasure and happiness.
The average householder devotes
more or less time and energy to the
front of his premises, but the rear
too frequently becomes the dump
ing ground for the refuse from the
kitchen, and the result is the I'M
happy combination of a Queen Anne
front and Mary Ann rear yard.

There are $4,000 cases of tubercu-
losis in New York city, and the rapid
increase of the disease in recent years
has alarmed those whose duty it is to
guard the health of the city. In the
congested districts of the metropolis
the spread of the white plague has
sent 5000 sufferers to the hospitals
and the number of afflicted is increas-
ing so rapidly that the question of
their care has become a most serious
one. To combat the encroachment
OF the disease the city government has
set aside S250,0o0 for free tubercu-
losls camp in the Shawangunk mount
aims in Orange county. Nine farms,
spreading over 1920 acres, form the
site that has been acquired. The i'm
mense tuberculosis camp will be under
the direction of a specialist, acting in
conjunction with a special advisory
board of physicians of tho health de.
partment.
