WHARF BEING
BUILT
While the Old One Tas Been
Repaired and is Ready
For Use.

Another city wharf Is under con-
struction by the street force under
Acting Superintendent Sopttswood,
and while it will be for the use OF
email craft only it will be a great
convenience to the owners OF such
boats. The new wharf is to be at the
corner of Magnolia and Palafox
streets and will extend out into the
slip between Baylen and Palafox
streets, about two hundred feet.
The work of building the wharf
was commenced yesterday. Before
the storm Magnolia street at that
point was filed with old buildings,
but these were carried away, leaving
the street clear, and the city Is now
placing a small wharf, twelve feet
wide by about two hundred in length
where the street terminates.
The street force also completed yes
terday the city wharf, at the corner
of Pine and Palafox streets, which
was destroyed by the storm.

PORTO RIcAN CITIZENS.

and spirit of its inhabitants. With

which civic pride is awakened. will
have a marvellous effect for good on
the people of Porto Rico. It has IL
ways been the contention of the Bry-
anesque element of our citizens that
the government never had any inten-
don of making the islanders citizens,
that our declaration of independence
and constitution permit the holding
of no colonial possessions. and that
therefore We are bringing down on
our heads the vengeance of provi-
dence for ignoring an ancient Demo-
cratic Interpretation of the docu-
ment of our liberties. When citizen
ship for Porto Ricans seemed afar of, ,
the Democratic press cried aloud in
sympathy for the people of the col

'dent has advised the congress to con-

cratic reasons why citizenship should
not be conferred on the islanders.

But brows have ached for it, and

And many have striven, and many

The osteopathlc science has been
assailed as vigorously as ever any
new truth that has been offered the

into its own. as the people become
better acquainted with it-know it.
Osteopathy is an evolution Of the
science of treating disease. IL went
hack TO the first principles in nature
for its foundation, and by taking a
step backward IL has made a great
stride forward.
IL is merely common sense
treatment: a method of manipula-

every organ of the body by removing
the physical obstruction. or stimu-
