THE CUBAN SITUATION AND
 AMERICAS WARNING.

The president letter to the Cuban minister is remarkable contribution Co the literature of international rcla tions Never before in the history of the world did any great nation occu. py such a position with regard tO n weaker nation, as we occupy with re- gard 10 Cuba. Never before would it have been possible for the head of one nation to justify before all the world, armed intervention in the affairs of another. on the ground that the wei. fare of the weaker nation impcrativcly demanded such interference. and with the certainty that any advantage thus gained by the stronger would be waiv. cd in favor of the weaker. Never was there n precedent more unsclfsh.
 The president warning is in plain words. He shows what his duty is under the treaty, and he announces his determination to carry out the spirit of the treaty. in the interest of peace and stability. He truly says tha, the "insurrcctionary habit" will merge into anarchy, and he declares that his duty is to prevent such failure of free government.
 Intervention has already taken place. although as yet not by force. American c6mmissionCrs will seek tho "permanent pacifcation of the isi- ands' through mediation. and the "ccssation of hostilities" has been proclaimed by President Palma. There are collisions and some bloodshed it. outlying provinces, but no general fighting. President Palma is ready to resign, and this, it is thought. wilt end the present rebellion.
 Intervention does rot mcln annex ation, and if certain interests are fo. menting trouble with annexation in view. they will be disappointed. An. ncxation will come in time. but rot now.
 The London Standard sums up ,hc political phases of the situation in thi' way:
 "Whatcvcr the final issue it will bc condemned by the Democrats. who are standing aside. ready to make DO liticaI capital out of the result. If the Cubans are left in their prcsen, condi. ton. Bryan will denouncc the apathy of the administration. If they are re- duced to order and governed from Washington he will dcnouncc the ty. ranncous imperialism. and coin beau tiful phrases about the inalienablc rights of nationhood and human lib cr'y.'

SURPLUS CHILDREN
 OF METROPOLIS
Almost 100000 Pupils Unable to Secure Full Days Schooling in Worlds Rich est City--An East Side Tragedy Or Childlessness

NEW YORK, Sept. 22. Now that the school year is well under way in New York, it has become apparent that there are almost 100000 super fluous children in the metropolis, for within few thousand of that mum
 Der have been unable to secure full school accommodation and are forced into half.time classes. In other words they only get half an education. lt probably seems very odd and some thing of a shame, to the stranger, that the richest city in the world would be unable to furnish educational accom- modations for sixth of it's total pub. lie school population of GOO 900 mind hungry boys and girls. How to build enough schools to keep up with the growing school population has long been n great problem in New York. In the memory of the present genera ton there have never been enough schools. Tammany Hall always makes great pledges about school building in it's party platforms, hut there is little profit for the politicians in this sort of activity. and they prefer 'o spend the ciiy's money along other lines. Even New York; occasional Gre. form mayors have newer succeeded in solving the school puzzle. Mayor Me. Clcllan was elected on "scat in school for every child" platform. but 100000 children are evidence today that that sort of profession is not of a serious character. Probably there will always he half.time pupils in New Works schools. as there will always bc straphangcrs on her street railways.

house. So Ota Bcnga got the freo dom of the Zoo. He was of q pleasant temper, hut, apparently devoid of fear. and the attendants have had ner. vous time keeping him from being gorcd by the big elk, eaten by tho lions, or killed by poisonous reptiles. Then, too, when the crowd eatches sight of Benga Hitting about the Zoo grounds. they give yell of "there's the wild man." and soon a bowling mob is chasing after the little fellow. tearing across the lawns and flower beds, lcaping fences and climbing tho trees. At these manifestations th, pygmy is not greatly perturbed. Though he is cannibal he always rc. mains gentle and polite. Prof. Yer ncr met Banga on the occasion of a banquet given to the explorer by Friendly Congo tribe. Benga was to bc the roast, but Prof. Werner saved him by purchasing him unslaughtered.
 It's great to be a Sullivan in New York. because then you need not gi,c heed to the rules and codes that gov ern ordinary humanity. New York's gambling lid Is on reasonably tight ordinarily (by which we mcnn that public gambling is not carried on openly), but when "Big Tim" Sulli van. the Tammany potentate, gave his annual picnic recently, which all the. East Side attended, the lid sho. off with n bang. As soon as the big stcamboats which were to convey the stalwart thousands to the picnic grounds, east off their moorings. the fun began. In the captains cabin, in one of the vessels, "Big Tim" himself and few of the other big guns. sat down to a poker game at which the limit was the bright blue dome of the sky. All over the ship similar poker games started, ranging down to the diminutive five-cent contest. Various other card games and games in which considerable paraphernalia was used houfished on the decks and in the cab. ins. An Italian set up table with the familiar three thimbles and pea. Queer Yiddish gambling games played with bits of string met the hunter of the bizarre in games of chance. Threc police inspectors and over dozen captains attended the picnc, but cast no damper on the sport. Indeed, 1t i' avcrrcd that some of these members of the constabulary, in their shirt sleeves, sat about the green tables during the trip, and were occasionally heard to say such things as "one card, please, or "raise you two blues ones," but this is scarcely n thing to he whisper ed abroad.

On the East Side the childlcss home is an object of moekery and scorn. In New York x Ghetto each new child is looked upon as n financial asset, so much more earning power in the fam fly. The children become self support. ing almost as soon as they can walk. Up in the siyticth streets, on the East Side. is n solid block of tall ,ene. mcnts inhabited by I,ohemians. aNd called the ''Block of Many Children, v because of the great number of swarihy youngsters swarming oven it.. For married pair to remain child less on that block means that they would he prey of the rude iibcs of the swarming neighborhood. The Bajzcks. Stepan and Marie, had no children. Stepan was young watch maker from n Bohemian village near Prague, and Marie was one of the deft. est of cigarette rollers When the pair married. Marie was hailed as the prct. ticst bride of the block. Hut no child. rch came of the union, and at the end Of two years the ncighbors would point the pair nut i"cringly 10 newcomers on the block. "Thc saints hate them. they have no ehildren,' declared the block. Then Stcpan and Marie adopt. cd baby from the foundlinQ asylum. At first the block jeercd. but gradu. ally forgot, and Marie and Stepan Were happy until few days ago, when some gossip discovered that the child of their adoption had negro blood in it's veins. Then the jeers were renew. ct and grew in volume until a few mornings ago, when Stepan and Marie were found dead in their room with the gas turned on. The coroner brought m verdict of accidental asphyxia. ton, but the block knows better. Also some of the Haunting neighbors are ashamed.
