THE REPUBLIC OF CUBA
FIRST MONTH OF ITS LIFE HAS
RUN ALONG SMOOTHLY.
TRYING TO PULL TOGETHER
cubans Are Trying to Avoid az Long
az Possible Another American
Intervention.

Havana, Mar 15.-While the first
month in the life OF the restored
Cuban republic has not been one OF
achievement, II has at least not been
marked by any untoward incident cal
culated to confirm the oft-repeated
prediction that the experiment OF
Cuban self-government was destined
to speedy failure. On the other hand
the government Of Gen. Gomez has
still to present assurances of its
ability to direct wisely and firmly the
destinies of the island
Forget Political Differences
The one fact which seems to be
established is that Cubans of all par.
ties are for the time being de.
termined TO forget their political diff.
ferences and pull together SO as to
avoid as long as possible--another
American intervention.
At the close of the provisional gov.
ernment one OF the most prominent
American officials expressed the fear
that the Gomez administration would
collapse within the next three
months; but he added that II II sur
vived that time II probably would en-
dure indefinitely. For this fear there
now appears no warrant for, apart
from the mutterings of displaced Office
holders, there is no evidence of dissat
isfaction with the new government.

splinters. All the windows on the
north side of the house were broken.
Mr.. and Mrs. Renner we're asleep at
the time of the explosion and we're not
injured. The story of the dynamiting
was suppressed until yesterday in or
der to keep the scent clear for blood
hounds who followed up tracks dis
covered near the house. The dogs
could follow the trail but short
distance. Al an indignation meeting
yesterday a resolution was passed re.
questing the county commissioners to
offer a reward for the capture of the

Hassenfatz, William Hartford and vii.
liam Dias, three men seized for local

Jail yesterday afternoon from the city
prison, following the discovery that
one of them, presumably Dias. had

window. The saw was in DiasT pos.
session when he was taken to the Jail.

the men through a window, facing the
Scioto river.

admiration Of the police, who say that
to reach the window, the man must
have exposed himself not only to the
danger of being caught, but of losing
his life in the river below.

A RADICAL ADVANCE ACTION
Graduate School Will be Established d
at Cornell College When School
Opens Next Fall.

Ithaca, N. Y, Mar. 15.--A graduate
school will be established at Cornell
at the beginning of the academic year
next fall. The Cornell university fac.
ulty decided upon this step, the most
radical advanced in some time, at a
meeting held here. It is expected the
trustees will ratify the action.
The college always has had grad
uate department but the growth OF
the university has made it imperative
that It be changed to a regular grad
uate school. Under the proposed plan
the faculty will be segregated entirely
from the university faculty The new
faculty will be composed OF professors
and assistant professors who are now
instructing in graduate work with
Dean T. F. Crane at their head.

engineers from all parts Of the coun-
try are in Chicago to-day in attend
ance ontt the sessions of the annual
convention of the American railway
engineering and maintenance OF way
association which opened in the Audi
torium hotel. SO far as the general
public is concerned, the most interest
ing and important feature of the con-
vention is the report of a special com
mittee which, II favorably received by
the association. will result in the
active cooperation OF the railways
with the government in the conserva
tion of the country's forests.
Prevent Waste Of Timber.
Phis report was made to-day by a
subcommittee on forest supplies of
the committee on ties. II recommends
that the utmost care be used to pre-.
vent waste of timber and that own.
ers of forest lands be encouraged to
replant. II is also proposed that
measures be adopted to prevent fires;
that legislation be sought that will
make It unnecessary to cut timber to
pay taxes, on the lines of the ma.
tional conservation commissions plan
for a separate tax on the land, that
on the timber to be paid only after 1t
is cut; and that a statistical bureau
be established to obtain information
as to the life OF ties, timber supplies
and waste.
Not having found any reinforced
concrete tie suitable for heavy or
high speed traffic, the committee rec
ommends the use Of ties chemically
treated and protected by tie plates.
The report was received with the
greatest interest by the members Of
the association.

resolution changing the date of the in

PROTECT YOUR BOOKS.

Few women realize that a hungry
moth would just as soon dine off a
book as a fur boa or their winter suits.
Yes. these little household pests are
bookworms. and therefore books o less
than clothes should be protected with
insect powder or moth balls when thew
are packed away. 1t is good idea 10
line the box in which books and photo
graphs and their frames. leather arti-
cles and the like are to be packed with
moth proof tarred paper and to be lib
eral with these sheets, too. to guard
against both moths and dampness.
Books should be packed tightly
enough to keep them from bouncinr
about, but not too tightly else the cor.
ners will overlap and the pages get
rufiied. 1t is well to wrap every hook
separately in paper Wrap the leather
bound books in brown paper. and those
of white Roman or Florentine vellum
in blue paper, which win prevent these
delicate bindings from growing yellow.
