declares that ruin would have fol-

icy towards the Philippines than that
outlined by VIM. Mckinley and car
ried forward through these nine years,
and asserts triumphantly that there is
no brighter page in history than that
dealing with the relations between
the strong and the weak in those is
lands. He added that the Filipinos
have as yet long way to travel be-

/ Generally speaking the secretary is OPP

this subject even though he cannot fix
time for declaring the independence of
the Islands. He vigorously denies the
failure Of the Philippine policy. He saws
that great changes have occurred in the
islands. The people arc now anxious to
have the American soldiers retained.

That dark and doubt, in you, are done?
Is it the luck alone
That crowns the kings and binds the

Which besscs you or Manhood on its

Foundation that so helps and saves?
Is il a gust OF gold
Which over you the harvest blows,
And on your heart and your ambition
bold
The rich reflection throws?
Is 1t some inward word
That not in every bosom sings
Which gives you faith where others have
deferred
Your happy surety in things

Florence. Jan. 26-Ouida the novelist,
died yesterday at Viareggio. after a long
illness, She died in most distressing
poverty, her only attendant being Iso-
lima Cervelli, an old servant woman, in
whose arms she expired.
She was completely blind in one eye
and the other eye was badly affected
from her having suffered so much from
exposure and privation. In the last few
months of her life she was compelled at
times to sleep IN the open air being I'M
able to pay for a nights lodging. The
immediate cause OF death is set down as
asthma complicated by heart disease.
Ouida had a passionate fondness for
dogs and up to the very last was sur

herself of even the necessar!es OF life
