has peculiar romantic history,
says an exchange. In early days
printing was styled the "olack

to be in league with Satan. But
it was in the time of Aldus Min

took a serious turn. This was
the famous printer who first pub
lished the Greek and Roman

a negro boy who was homeless on

NO ARRESTS so FAR.
Two Men Under Suspicion for Sub.
Treasury Steal.

Two Men Under Suspicion for Sub.
Treasury Steal.
Chicago, March lit is known that
two men have been reported to the
federal officials as specifically under
suspicion in connection with the S173,-
900 robbery in the sub-treasury. An
arrest is likely within twenty-four
hours. A. grand jury indictment may
be returned first.
George w. Fitzgerald, the asserting
teller, from whose cage the money
disappeared, who has been under fire
since the day the shortage was dis
covered and who has been relieved
from work for the present, said that
the secret service officials had told
him that he was eliminated from the
list of possibilities of men who might
have committed the theft
The consensus Of opinion was that
the suspects were among the govern
ment employees and did not include an
outsider, but Mr.. Fitzgerald held to
his theory that men-outsiders-
had access to the sub-treasury office
on the day the theft was committed,
poked a pile of gold certificates from
his desk while he was out at lunch
and picked it up from the floor through
the three-lnch space.

Along the Belgian frontier a regular
gang of bandits has been robbing and
numbering for two years and their
depredations continue in spite of the
fact that the police early in February
succeeded in arresting the ringlead,
ers. During the two years this gang
committed thousands of robbertes and
murders. The streets of Paris, espe
cially in the Montparte district, are
terrorized by "apaches," as they are
termed, and are no longer safe for
pedestrians. The newspapers for
weeks past have been filled daily
with stories of robberies and assas.
sinations, the victims being struck
down with knives.
M. Cochin, Liberal, in the chamber
declared that in many sections of the
country the gendarmerie were utterly
unable to cope with the brigands and
the inhabitants were arming for self
protection. ~
M. Berry, Conservative, in describ
ing the deplorable condition of Paris,
gave large list of murders commit
ted in the streets of the capital since

Premier Clemenceau, in reply, said
the government recognized the grow
ing state of insecurity and a flying
brigade of picked policemen had been
organized in Paris, similar to the re-
gional brigades which were being
formed in the country, to cope with
the marauders.

Captain Porter, in charge of the

made a report to Mr.. Sims which
demonstrated that a mysterious sur

long time. These employees in Mr..
Sims office, who have been connected
with the Standard Oil cases, have
been especially subject to surveil-

that the men under suspicion are en-

although he said the circumstances
warranted conference with Chief

a paper must have been print@ d

least one year before it can lay
any claim upon legality. Appar'
emily the law is of little conse-

be, however, that as the council
has no legal advisor the members
were not aware that legal pub

OBSERVATIONS.

Some men get as much mixed
up about the future as they do
about the past
When I see some manual,
turers' "home made" goods |
wonder what kind Of cooks their
mothers were.
No matter how dirty faced the
boy is his mother can always
find a clean spot big enough to
kiss.
You can tell lie to a phono.
graph and it will be almost hui
man in it's ac5ion-it will repeat
the lie whenever it has the
chance.
In the old stories the hero
always pressed a kiss on the
heroine's glove, but probably in
those days they didn't clean
gloves with Benzine.
A man can invent an excuse
for anything. When you ask him
why he plays solitaire he will tell
you that Napoleon played it.
Yes, Harold, the beauteous
creature who thinks you are
noble for bringing her American
beauties at O. dollar apiece will
some day deliver you a lecture
on the foolishness of paying
eight cents a yard for that rib bon
when you could have bought it
for six cents at another store.

CAUSES SENSATION IN MADRID.
Story That American Congress Was
Paid to Declare War.


Madrid, March IA sensation has
been caused here by the publication
Of story, credited to the Diario de
la Marina Of Havana, which purports
to show by documentary evidence that
the United States congress was
bought in 1897 by Tomas Estrada
Palma to insure war being declared
against Spain. According to the Ha-
vana newspaper bonds to the value of
$37, 100000, redeemable when Cuba
should become independent, were is
sued in Washington to senators and a
contract exists which contains phrase
ology like that of the joint resolution
Of April, 1898, voted by congress. The
article says further that the value of
the bonds fell heavily in 1899 and
therefore new contract was made
between Palma and the American
senators. Count Salazar, minister of
foreign affairs, has telegraphed to the
Spanish representatives at Washing
ton for the fullest information.
