How He Is Paid.

Once every month Assistant Secre-
tary of the Treasury Reynolds pre-
sents his signature to President Roose
Welt. 1t is no ordinary signature,
either. not only because The Reynolds
autograph is a most wonderful piece
o. work. but because it is worth x
sctly s4.16666.
This is the Presidents monthly sal
airy. which is drawn to his order in
the form of a Treasury warrant.
oeee the Treasury made mistake in
making out the salary OF the Presi-
dent, when Grover Cleveland was in
tie White House. Through an err
Tor. the warrant one month mas made
out for one cent less than it should
have been. When the error was
checked up. the department very form
ally sentSMr. Cleveland warrant for
one cent. the smallest Treasury war
rant ever drawn. That warrant has
never been presented for payment, and
IL is said that 1t now hangs framed
ia Mr.. CleveIand's library.

THREATEN WAR
CUBAN LIBERALS SIGN STATE MENTS THAT THEY WILL FiGHT UNLESS AMERICANS WiTH-
 DRAW.

New York. Feb.-A report from Havana says that open. signed threata of war against the United States if it does not get out of Cuba are HOW being made by the leaders of the Lih- eral party, to whom everything haS been given by the American Rrovist ional government, except absolute control. The party is insatiabie, aN4 impatient over the delay of the Amer ican withdrawal, when, 1t was pFotn- ised they would be left mastaxs oS Cuba. These leaders, the report saFzs resent the suggestion of the conser- vative classes that an American gfe~ tectorate might be surer guarantees of peace than the unbridled rule ot any Cuban faction. The report quotes an article by Gen. del Castello. in Fl Rebel De, Liberal organ. in which he insists that the "Imbeciles" wha favor a protectorate must be struck down and that if annexation oT q nrOtactOrata come war will follow.

Reliuion the Remedy.

New York, Feb.-Justice David l. Brewer of the United States Supreme Court told the congregation in ths Broadway Tabernacle Sunday thai, ia his opinion, religion was the priRc&' pal factor by which the negroes of tSis South could be converted into 8 valE- able asset of the nation. We knew that there is ignorance, crime and immortality among the negroes" hs said, "and it remains with us t& change present conditions so that they will become a helpful factor in eivf~ lization and progress. I believe thaG there is divine providence which will so shape our history that ths negro will be a helpful factor. Wa must all assist in hringing about this end Industrial development, cleanE- ness, education and other benevolent and useful things are good for tlls negro, but believe nothing will hess him so much as the influence Of ths cross of Christ, and nothing will ss move him to being a good and usefut citizen as the gospel of the Primes of Peace"
