PINK MONKEYS IN DANGER.
Worlds supply Of Absinthe May Be
Shut or by switzer-
land

Pea green elephants, pink monkeys
and white blackbirds, together with
the flock of fiamingoes which absinthe
drinkers insist have roamed at will
about Central park, may soon become
extinct by reason of the action of the
Swiss government.
Nearly the entire quantity of alb.
sinthe imported into the United
States is distilled in the canton of
-Neuchatel in Switzerland. Virtually
all of it that is imported goes to the
three cities of New York, New Or.
leans and San Francisco.
Because of the great evil resulting
from the habitual use of poison, there
Is movement on foot in Switzer-
land to prohibit the production Of
absinthe and even to forbid it's sale
within the republic.
The manufacture or distillation Of
absinthe is a government monopoly
in Switzerland. The estimated reve-
nue. to the government is about 81.
100000 year. This revenue is dis
tributed by the government among
the various cantons or provinces
with the proviso that 10 per cent of
1t must be expended in promoting the,
cause of temperance.
Now prohibition is in the ascend
ancy in Switzerland and is seeking
constitutional amendment to forbid
the distillation and sale of absinthe
and to enforce absolute prohibition
through the entire republic.
The movement. according to Consul
Clifford at Basil, has given a great
impetus because of the fact of an
absinthe.crazed father in the canton
OF Vaud, in killing his wife and chill.
dren.
With any diminution in supply in
Switzerland the Importation to the
United States must come from a new
source.

FIND DocFIsH GOOD FOOD.
Once Despised Fish Now Called
"Flake" in Great Demand
in England.

Plymouth, England.-The English
people are taking new view of the
dogfsh. which they now find good to
eat. The Cornwall sea fisheries CON-
mittee has recently Endorsed the ia
vorable verdict previously given at
Plymouth as to the edible qualities of
dogfish, and no doubt their approval
will give a further stimulus to thu
consumption of this once depised fish.
The committee also approved of the
new name given the fish "flake," the
general acceptance of which, indeed,
may now be said to be assured.
Whereas only few months ago com.
plants were made of the ravages COM
mitted by apparently inexhaustible
shoals of dogfish. the fishermen now
complain that they cannot get enough
flake" for the market. They hope
for their speedy return. Preparations
are being made for better equipment
in the way of nets and gear for the
next season, The railway charges
for flake" have already been reduced
from Plymouth to the great centers

PORTO R|CAN STATUS
NATIVES OF ISLAND NEITHER
CITIZEN NOR ALIEN.
Efforts Being Made in Congress to
Give Them Definite Relations
People Dissat-
isfed.

Washington.-Admin infu-
'ence is being exerted to confer the
rights of citizenship ON inhabitants of
Porto Rico. but with slim chances of
success at this session of congress.
Identical bills have been pending in
the two houses since early in the win
ter, designed to rescue the Porto
Ricans from their anomalous status.
In the senate, where Mr.. Foraker has
been most aggressive in his support,
the bill has been favOrably reported
from the committee on Pacific islands
and Porto Rico, of which the Ohio
senator is chairman.
1t has not progressed in the upper
branch because of the opposition OF
Mr.. Spooner and other senators who
think with him on colonial problems.
and who fear that giving the island
ers citizenship would necessarily in
volve extending over them the privi-
leges and protection of the constitu-
ton and other blessings which they
do not deem wise to bestow.
In the house the speakers opposi-
ton to the measure has successfully
prevented any action of whatever
character on the proposal. and it still
lies in committee. The temper Of the
house committee is believed to be fa-
vorable to action, but Mr.. Cooper has
been unable to get the speakers con-
sent to pl to the
house.
Gov. Beekman Winthrop represents
that the people of Porto Rico feel
that they have been rather badly
treated in this matter. There is no
way in which they can become cit
izens of the United States by their
own action. Not being aliens and
having no foreign sovereignty to re-
uounce, they cannot become natural
tied. They were classed as Spaniards
under the Spanish control, and they
cannot understand why they should
be placed in an inferior position I'M
der a more liberal and democratic
government.
The status of the Porto Rican is
not as good as that of the Spaniards
residing in the island who elected I'M
der the organic act to continue SUBJ
jects of Spain, for they have the
rights of aliens, and can. if they so
desire. become citizens of the United
States by naturalization. Repeated
efforts to SO amend the statute as to
permit the naturalization of Porto
Ricans have been defeated.
There was a difference of opinion
in the senate in 1900, when the Porto
Rican act was passed. as to what the
status of the native islanders should
be, and many felt apprehension that
legislation with respect to them
might, as precedent, prove prejudi-
cial to our interests in connection
with legislation for the Philippines
Senator Foraker contends that since
most of the questions which then
gave rise to doubts have been solved,

Their delay on that account.
If Porto Rican should see fit to
come to the United States or to en-
gage in any commercial transactions
involving shipments to or from this
country, he is required, by our coast
wise and navigation laws, to use
ships of American registry. But
neither in the island nor here can he
sue in the courts as citizen of the
United States. If he should visit
foreign country he is denied the privi-
lege of carrying passport or having
any definite status OF citizenship that
is known or recognized by other coun-
tries.
