BEAR TRAP SET FOR OFFICERS.
Surprise for Deputy Marshals in the
Tennessee Mountains.

Tennessee Mountains.
The gaping jaws of bear trap is
what confronted Deputy United States
Marshal John Blankenship, Deputy
Marshal George Sharp and others
when they made. raid the other
night into the mountains of Blount
county.
In the posse were the two deputies
mentioned and Deputy Revenue Col
lector J. S. Remine. They left this
city and went to the North Carolina
line, and there located a distillery al
legged to have been owned and oper-
ated by Uncle SAM Burchfield. 1t
was in the fastness of the mountain,
and as the officers were just on the
point of leaping from the roof into
the little house Messrs. Blankenship
and Sharp spied the bear trap, and
crawled back.
They were both on the point of
leaping down at the same time, and
had they done SO they would have
been instantly caught in the trap. The
trap is said to have been one of the
largest ever seen in the mountains Of
East Tennessee.
Burchfield had escaped, but 1t is
said that he will be arrested; but the
officers in quest of him will look out
in the future for man traps as well as
bear traps.-Knoxville Sentinel.

New York CITY. which historical
imaginations are fain to compare with
Nineveh, Tyre, Babylon, sodom and
what Mr. Dooley calls other ancient
''metroluppuses," is not an unhealthy
place, as great cities go. Last year
the births exceeded the deaths by
10000. This is greater gain than
appears for the same time in London,
Berlin or st. Petersburg, and in Paris
the death-rate is much greater than
the birth-rate. New York is q healthy

Cuba PROGRESSING.


CUBA is making slow progress toward
BeIgovernment. The first time the
united States interviewed in the behalf
OF order 1t had to remain in control of
anairs more than three years. Then
cuban congress and a Cuban presi-
Gent assumed power. Everything
went smoothly until the election of a
new president, when the opponents OF
Inc administration were kept from the
polls in so many districts that an in
surrection soon started. The United
states had to intervene the second
Gme' In September, 1906. It has been
pusy since then Strengthening out the
Gangle into which President Palma in
VOWED the island. President Roose-
welt announced to congress the other
Gay that our work would be completed
on February /, 1909. This will be in
less than two years and half from
the appointment of the American pro-
Visional governor. AS the election Of
a new president and congress is to be
under the supervision of the American
oncers in Cuba, 1t is likely that there
VIII be fair play. The next test Of
Cuban ability will come in four years
more when the Cubans try again to
choose new president. If it should
happen that the United States has to
be called in third time there are
many persons who believe that it
should not retire so quickly, but should
remain long enough to assure the
country against insurrection every four
years.

The American style of benevolence
seems to be contagious. Other coun-
tries are feeling the effect. The will
of Mrs. Rylands, widow of a wealthy
cotton manufacturer of Manchester,
England, leaves $2,365,O00 to various
charities, including $1,OOO,0OO to H.
brary on which she spent $7,50O.0 900
during her life. This is suggestive of
some of the princely gifts to philan-
tl1ropy made in the United States, al.
though the American record is as yet
ahead of all others.

New Chinese Army.

The Rev. Ng Poon Chow, the Chi
nese editor, who addressed the Inter-
UNCONVENTIONAL Missionary conference
in Calvary church last night, aroused
the risibilities Of his audience by q
well meant comment on the new army
which, his country is now developing.
China said the learned Oriental,
'is raising a standing army Of one
million men,"
After a pause, in which he allowed
his auditors to grasp the extent OF his
statement, he added with an inimi-
table Monaghan lisp:
China has never had a standing
army. 1t has always been either a
running army or sitting army. San
