It has been ascertained that the
 proposed visit of Secretary Root to
 the Pan-American conference at Rio Janeiro has more behind it than, the
 mere courtesy of the American secre- tary of state in gracing the gather
 ing. There has been a feeling in the
 government of this country for some
 time past that it would be a good thing if the Monroe doctrine were specifically formulated' somewhere else on this continent than in the
 United States. The larger of the South American republics know us and our aims very well, but there is more os the big stick and less of the protecting hand in the attitude of this country toward South America than appears on the surface. For this reason they are inclined to fear that there may be harm for the fu- ture lurking in the Monroe doctrine in spite of the fact that it is enunci- ated by, this country as much for their protection as for the good of the United States. writes our Wash ington correspondent. It has been felt that if the doctrine were public ly espoused by some of the stronger South American states, the smaller republics would feel more secure and there would be less indueement for some European country to skate on thin ice than is now the case. It has been we'll understood for a long time that Germany was only looking for a good opportunity to fout the Monroe doctrine and if she thought she would have the shadow of moral sup port in South America while doing so she would try it at almost any time. Brazil has been picked out by this government as a good leader of the movement to emphasize the doc urine among the South American states. and it is suggested that the visit of Secretary Root to Rio Jan eiro has more to do with sounding the Brazilian government on the question of an unEritten alliance than for any other purpose. It is well understood that if it came to the test of force. the United States would have to be the one to uphold the Monroe doctrine unaided. and there is no thought that re could not do this just as well without South American help as with it But if Secretary Root srranges an informal though none the less effective sIIi- ance with Brazil. the whole circle of American republics will be drawn more closely together and the stnos- phere vfIl be cleared of much doubt and dfstrust that the smaller states have heretofore felt of their big northeTa nesghbor.

yours.
 To do this you walk behind a screen, bend down to chair, leaving the coin there, turn round, pick it up, and slip 1t into your pocket. You can then offer to free yourself from the string. Go behind the screen, take pair of scissors from your hip pocket, cut yourself free, pocket the loose pieces of string, and exhibit another, piece with Which You had provided your self beforehand. This piece must, of course, be exactly like the piece with which you were tied, and the decep- tion is improved if the second piece has two or three knots tied in it.

place. To release them take hold of B's string in the center (see sketch). Take the loop you thus get behind either of As wrists. pass it through the piece that goes round his wrist, and slip it back over his hand.
 Then, if A draws his wrists away, he will find that he is free. If you watch the way in which the string slips out at the wrist you will be able to reverse the process and link the two together again.

Jean Gererdy, the we'll known Gel

praised American wit.
'You are all witty, be said,

gamin you are quick, nimble and

flush and mutter an evil oath one
day in New YORK.

train, ran out of his hotel toward a

the cab door and handed in his

He gave the boy nothing. In

The disappointed urchin smiled
sourly. and called this order to the
driver: Nearest poorhouse, cabby.

Mrs. Martha Shippey. Of De-

of an interesting relic of by-gone
days in the shape Of an issue of
the Ulster County Gazette, pub
lished at Kingston, N. Y, and
bearing the date of Saturday,
January 4, 1900. The paper is a
curious example of journalism
of the day, in makeup and ma
terial. The greater portion of
the issue is taken up with an
account of the death and funer
of George Washington. the col.
umns being enclosed in heavy
obituary rules and the story
written in the elevated language
of the period. The account of
Washington's burial reads as
follows:
