Secretary Taft Reports Things Progress
ing Well on His Return-Silent as
to Politics Now.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April %
Secretary of War Taft and party arrived
at the Washington navy yard on the May
flower Monday night after an absence of
exactly a month on a trip that included
Panama, Cuba and Porto Rico.
Secretary Taft made a statement in
which he says he found matters in Cuba
lin what under the circumstances must
be considered a very satisfactory cOndi-
tom" that there is every ground for
hope that the plan adopted for census,
preliminary election and then a general
election six months later will result in
the selection of a President and Congress
who will be able to maintain themselves
and give stable rule to the island and
that the delay in taking n census is tax
en- by the Cubans as i'll earnest of the
American governments desire to secure
a stable government before it leaves" so
there shall be no excuse for second
intervention"
He said that in Panama the engineers
reported to him that the foundations for
the sites of the locks were entirely salts
factory and he discussed administrative
matters he took up in Panama.
Il have only very indefinite knowl-
edge of what has taken place III this
country since my departure and there
fore have nothing to say on the subject
of politics." he concluded.

CHAPTER IT.

The Tigrero had let his head fall on
his chest again, and seemed engaged with
gloomy thoughts The hunter, somewhat
embarrassed by the turn the conversation
had taken, and anxious to continue it,
mechanically stirred up the fire.
Stay" he said, presently, as he thrust
back with his foot few embers that had
rolled out pardon me, sir, any insult
which my exclamation may seem to have
contained. You have mistaken my mean

not such strangers as you suppose. 1

The Tigrero raised his head and looked
at the hunter incredulously.
"You?" he muttered.

prove it to you

Valentine reflected for moment, and
then went on as follows:

circumstances unnecessary to remind you
Of. but which you doubtless bear in mind,
Won met at the colony of Guetzalli

whom you eventually stood on most init

ssIt is true" the Tigrero replied, the
Frenchman to whom you allude is the

sad smile curled the hunters lip.
..You no longer owe him anything" he
said.
'What do you mean?" the Tigrero ex-
claimed eagerly; surely the count can

Telephone in the Logging Camps.

The telephone is doing good work for
the forests of northern Maine. The
folks are using it in driving logs along
the west bank of the Penobscot. They
are in touch with log drivers dams.
When a jam of logs is in evidence the
telephone orders the men to close the
gates and stop the logs from coming
down until the dam is broken out. Then
the telephone sets the logger to work
again. A stick of dynamite is generally
used to start logs that are congested.
Formerly relays of men were employed
to carry the news up and down the river.
Telephone lines annually are being ex-
tended up and down our great rivers.
The telephone is also used to aid the fire
wardens in discovering and extinguishing
forest fires.
A station has been established on the
top of Squaw mountain, six miles east
of Greenvlle. From there the observer
can see the country for miles around
and locate any fire within a radius OF
sixty miles.-Lewiston Journal.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There Is
only one way to cure deafness, and that Is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused by an inhamed condition of the nu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube Is intamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it Is
entirely closed, Deafness Is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condl-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an ntiamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.

A MITE OF A DOG.
The Smallest Dog in the World Littl,
Princess Gift.


The Princess Windiscfgratz is the
granddaughter of the Emperor of Aus
tria. When she was but about eleven
years old she was known and loved as
1.-The little Princess Elizabeth"
There lived baker in the city of VII
emma whose wife was particularly fond
of the little Princess Elizabeth. This
bakers wife had, in 1894, tiny white
dwarf dog given her, which was so small
that when full-grown it could sit on a
lady's hand. SO small dog had never
been seen before, and people often came
to the house on purpose to look at it.
1t was Christmas eve. The bakers
wife dressed herself in her Sunday best,
put the dog in basket lined with pink
satin and went to the palace where Eliz
abeth lived. No stranger was allowed
to go into the palace except by permits
sion. She showed the dog to the guards,
and they were so delighted with it that
they managed to get her into the palace,
and when once in it was not very diff
cult to obtain permission from the court
authorities to see Princess Stephanie, the
mother of the little Princess Elizabeth.
Your royal highness," said the bakers
wife, Il hope that you will allow me to
present a little gift to your daughter this
Christmas eve? and then she uncovered
the basket with the tiny white dog in it.
Wasn't the Princess Stephanie delight
ed with it? And of course the little
Princess Elizabeth was. She loved it
more than any of the rich gifts which
she received for Christmas. The dog
never grew to be more than five inches
