Mai. John NJ. Burke. Col. Buffalo Bills
impTessario. is in Washington the guest
of his friend, Allison Nailor. Maj. Burke
has just returned from an extended tour
of England and the Continent with the
Buffalo Bill Show. and at the White
House yesterday he entertained his Old
friend, the President, with interesting
stories OF the reception in all parts Of
Europe accorded the Cody Wild West
aggregation. The show exhibited IN near
~ every country Of Europe. including
England Scotland. ireland Wales.
France, Italy. Kroatia. Austria-Hungary.
Galicia, SaxOny. Prussia. Alsace-LOraine.
Holland, Belgium. the priucipalties Of
Reuss, Saxe-.Oburg, Hesse-Darmstadt
and the Grand Duchies Of BuCkoWina and
LuXcmburg. Mai. Burke told the Prcsi-
dent that its chief attraction 10 the
Europeans was the band 0f Sioux Indian
warriors, sixty in number, who startled
the people Of the effete Old World by
their war dances. Dc. He insisted that
the four years OF travel in Europe which
these Indians have just had has done
them more good IN an educational and
CiViliZiug sense than all Of the efforts
Of the missionaries IN this country. and
that what they learned abroad will have
an excellent effect upon the whole tribe
fn the Northwest. among whom they viii
soon be distributed.

SpOoner ns Adviser.

Hon. John c. Spooner's reluctance to
discuss the delicate situation IN Cuba for
publication. although it is known that he
was called to the White House the other
day by the President for consultation on
this subject, is quite probably due to the
fact that lie is recognized in the Senate
as one cf the joint authors of the Platt
amendment. under the authority of which
thc administration has sent "a military
expedition TO Cuba 10 straighten out the
tangle there. Senator Spo0ncr is not now.
Tor has he ever been, "a member of the
Committee on Relations with Cuba. but
he was the chief lieutenant of the late
Senator Plat. of Connecticut all through
TIE long campaign which resulted in the
enactment o. the far-reaching statute
which bears the name Of the dead states
nan. Indeed the claim is made that the
Wisconsin Senator did the actual writing
OF the Platt amendment. though he has
never claimed any credit, even for Joint
authorship. He and Nr. Plat were very
close friends, and each respected the
other as lawyer of the very highest
ability Mr. SpoOner never had more
attentive listener while speaking than
was the Connecticut statesman, who him
self spoke rarely in the Senate. II there
is a long discussion of the Cuban question
In the Senate this winter AR SpoOner

GREETINGS TO THE HERALD.
From the indianapolis News.

From the Indianapolis News.
The Washington Herald. the new l-cent
morning paper, edited by Scott G. Bone,
formerly of indianapolis made its first
appearance at the National Capital Mon
day. Mr.. Bone. who is regarded among
newspaper men as one of the strongest
editors IN the country. was for years in
entire management Of the Washington
Post, He evidently feels confident that
his method Of conducting that paper was
the correct one. Except that the name
OF the paper is different and the size OF
the page is smaller the rea..eT feels that
ne simply is taking up a later issue Of the
former Post. A more detailed considera-
ton shows that whatever cnange has been
made Is toward greater readablcness and
iightnes o. touch, with no orifice of dig
nifty The editorial page. which Is more
directly under Mr.. Bones eye, is of siie
Old-timc Post quality and arrangement.
There are some serious editorials COM
pactly written. others in lighter vein,
and a string of cracking paragraphs. Ia
fact, there Is nothing faltering or doubt
fully experimental in the air of the first
number Of this new paper. II walks with
a firm step, as though il had been alive
a long time, and meant to keep alive.
