preciation,' and yet that it is the lack of art here which takes so many Amer jeans to Europe. That does not sound consistent. How also can she say that when she sang in this, her own country, no one knew whether she sang we'll or badly. Surely she remembers that the west was as positive that she sang well as the east was certain that she sang badly.
 Indeed, Miss Farrar Is both ungrate- full and forgetful. She should remember at least the appreciation this country lavished on the art of her distinguished father, from whom she inherited her voice and artistic temperament.
 When Sid Farrar let loose his voice on the side lines, with the bases full and two out, the thousands on the bleachers raised up and paid him hom- age. It was worth more than all the rest of the game just to hear Sid fairly lift a man from third on his voice and slide him in safe over the home plate.
 Yet his daughter says We do not ap- preciate art, and "cannot judge music because utterly lacking in understand ing" To be sure, we are not all the progeny of artistry; we are not all the next generation to baseball nobility; We have not all had Miss Farrar's in- heritance and opportunities.
 Most of us are only the middle class, but we all worshiped her noble father, and that should be something, while even the eastern critics admitted that the daughter was exceptionally good looking and she drew a monstrous wage, on which she can live comfortably for some time in rural Berlin. Maybe when the money is gone she will revise her judgment, withdraw the dirk and con clude that, after all, New York and a thousand a night is "not so worse"

Midget Dies in a Poornouss

John Harding, to whom F. T. Barnum offered $500 week to exhibit himself, died in the poorhouse here today. liar ding's pride would never permit him to place himself on show with the midgets, the giants and the fat ladies; and so, while he might have amassed consid. erable fortune, he died pauper
 Nature was in strange mood when she brought him into being. Harding was 43 years old, but he was no bigger than a normal 2-year-old boy. His arms and legs were gnarled and twisted and from the moment of his birth they were in uneeasing motion. Against his will his legs kicked and his arms swung around like windmill s. He never walked, he never even creeped.
 Nevertheless, he had fine brain and wonderful memory. He taught him self to read and write and read good books constantly.-Norwalk (Conn.) dispatch to the New York World.

STABBED BY DAUGHTERS HAND

The United States has suffered an. other blow. The knife has been run in its gizzard to the hilt and left there The worst of it is that the hand which wielded the weapon and inflicted the grievous wound, was that of one of it's beautiful and gifted daughters.
 Miss Geraldine Farrar, prima donna de lux, has expatriated herself. She renounces an ddenounces her country because, forsooth and egad, truth, that rare quality which afAicts some great minds, compels her Ito admit that there is no art in the United States. '' But not content with the simple state. ment, she proceeds to rub it in by par. ticularizing.
 "It is only money there," she says. So she has gone to Germany to make her home, where there are other things besides money. There are, for instance, court scandals, a Ground table" con. trolled and controlling by the occult, a philosophy of pessimism, which has re- suited in lamentable moral laxness.

1.-The leaders IN congress are Sdlu &c

priations at this session for the de-
Tense of the Philippines, Hawaii, and
the Pacific coast Of the United States,
saws the Chicago Tribune. Some
thing has been done for the protec-
ton of west coast points. but not
enough Practically nothing has been
done for the islands.
There are many congressman to
whom this policy does not appeal
They see that the lavish expenditures
of the last congress cannot safely be
duplicated. They have had warning
that there must be retrenchment OF
there may be a deficit. But they do
not wish their pet measures to be
submerged by the wave of retrench-
ment. They are for economy as long
as it does not interfere with their
getting appropriations for public
buildings in their districts, or with ap-
preparations for the improvement OF
insignificant rivers and harbors. They
are for cutting down appropriations
for national purposes so that there
may be room for those for such local
purposes as have been mentioned.
THE United States never will part
voluntarily with Hawaii. Therefore 1t
ought to be put in a state of defense.
Effective action should have been
taken in that direction years ago. 1t
is true that no danger threatens and
the inhabitants of Hawaii may never
hear the sound Of a hostile gun, but
that Is no reason why the precautions
which common sense dictates should
not be adopted.
1.-The United States has no present
intention of getting out of the Philip
pines. 1t is far from having COM
pleted its benef1cent mission there
There are no indications that any
foreign power wishes to wrest the
islands from the United States, but
there should be forts and big guns so
that if such an attempt was made it
could be more easily frustrated. One
should always be in readiness for the
unexpected.
pretty good care of as regards de-
lenses. The Atlantic is the ocean in
which this country has taken an al
most exclusive interest. Now it is the
turn of the Pacific to receive atten-
ton. Americans should face west
ward for time and look after their
interests in that ocean. They hold
valuable possessions there, and those
possessions should be put in a state of
defense, even though that may interfere
with the schemes of congressman to
get appropriations for their districts
to make 1t easier for them to be re-
nominated"
