The Human Appetite.

Of all the whimsical, shifting, unre-
liable, treacherous, exacting things IN
the world, the human appetite for the
right thing to eat is, perhaps, the
most unreasonable and imperiou0
There are those who humor it; 9th.
ers who defy it; and all men are more
or less inclined to treat it with con.
sideration. To find a place where
these varying attitudes may be fos.
tered, at the least cost'in each case,
and yet keep the appetite in proper
and peaceful subjection, is always
desirable information. One place that
is conceded as perfectly adapted to
this, is the Palace Restaurant, just
opposite the Page building, on Com
mercial street. in this city. Try t
once, and patronize it always; that is
the rule of the Palace.

CONSIDER ANNEXATION
OF CUBA
A RESOLUTION is INTRoDuC,
ED IN HOUSE RELATING TO
THE SUBJECT.

WASHINGTON, April 20--A step
looking 10 the ultimate annexation Of
Cuba is embodied in a resolution in
troduced in the House yesterday by
Representative Helm Qf Kentucky,
Il provides that whenever majority
OF the voters OF the island shall vote
in favor Of annexation to the United
States, the territory Of the island
shall be annexed on such terms and
conditions as the proper authorities
Of both countries may agree upon
Mr.. Helm, in explanation OF the
resolution said:
1T is almost certain that the Ameri-
can flag, II il ever goes up in Cuba
again to insure the stability Of govern
ment guaranteed BY treaty, will be
there to stay. This resolution antiei.
pates that event and indicates the best
easiest, and most democratic way Of
preserving amieahle relations; and is
in accordance with the resolution
adopted when the United States de-
cared war on Spain and proclaimed
that Cuba must be free, The resolu.
tion. IL adopted, is simply the extend.
ing of an invitation and an expression
OF welcome to the people OF Cuban
republic. In its brightest significance
liz must be so construed and under
stood b them in that il simply address
ses itself TO the approved judgemen,
of majority Of the legal voters as to
whether their best welfare will be
best conserved by their becoming a
useful, integral part rather than a
ward of this government, There is
intended to be 4 complete absence in
the resolution, OF any suggestion Of
coercion or demonstration OF power
just as there is not now an American
soldier on the island. The entire
proposition is put up to the sovereigns
the voters OF the republic most con.
Ieerned."

However, there is a general busi,

ing for things to improve.
But Wise wont wait; he's not of
