 Executing Treaty Obligations.

FATHER OF cARlBALDi
 DOUBTS DEATH REPORT
News of His Death in Mexican En- gagsment Causes Grief in Rome.

Rome March 13.-The report of the death of Giuseppe Garibaldi, grandson of the Italian patriot which is said to have occurred in an engagement be- tween the Mexican troops and insur- gents, has been received here with keen regret. His father, however, Ri- coiotti Garibaldi. puts no credence in the report.
 He has just received a letter from his son, dated about three weeks ago, in which Giuseppe said he was a staff officer with the insurgents in Mexico and expressed confidence in the final success of the revolutionary move ment.
 Lieut.-Col. Giuseppe Garibaldi ac- eording to early reports received from Mexico, was among those killed in the battle at Casas Grandes Later advices however, said that Garibaldi was known to have escaped after the engagement.

BRYAN cRirIcIsEs THE
 MODERN NEWSPAPER.
One of the Evils is the Publication of
 Grimes and Domestic lnfeIicity.

Philadelphia. March 13.-William Jennings Bryan and Rollo Ogden, ed itor of the New York Evening Post discussed The Influence of the Mod ern Newspaper here tonight at meet ing of the Contemporary club.
 MT. Bryan said that the modern newspaper has lost much prestige and influence. Among the causes for this loss of influence, he said, was the de- yotlOn Of too much space to crime and domestic infelicity. Because the pub lie, seem to demand news of this de- scription, he said. was no reason that it. should be used. A journalist should not sell things that are not good for the public to read.
 Sensational Treatment of Public Cues
 tions.
 Another evil, MT. Bryan declared, is the discussion of public questions from a sensational standpoint For example. he deoried the manner in which the present movement of troops is being described in some newspapers. Such discussion is apt, he said, to engender @ situation which might easily cause an international controversy
 Editorials from the Business Office.
 Editorials which do not express the opinion of the writer's but are ordered by the business offices of the papers, are another great evil, declared Mir Bryan, w11e said "the greatest menace to our country today is the pollution of the editorial ard news columns by interests that are practicins grand lar ceny on the people. Many of our great newspapers are owned by interests which have their hands in the pockets of the people and use the papers to chloroform the readers.
 Require Publicity as to Ownership.
 MT. Bryan advocated the passage of a law which would compel newspapers to publish not only the names of their nominal owners, but also the holders of mortgages upon the properties.

MORE PARDON NOT VET
 CONSIDERED BY TAFT.
Has Not Vet Glanced at Papers in the
 Case.

Augusta. Ga. March 19.-Starting in the third day of his brief vacation with an early attack on Col. Bogey. Presi- dent Taft played the full eighteen hole course this morning. He was followed to the links by Charles D. Norton, the presidents secretary, who had as guests three friends from Chicago.
 Shortly after MT. Taft came in from the course, it was said that he had not so much as glanced at the papers in the proposed Morse pardon case. Re- ports reaching Augusta from New York that the president will today sign a pardon for the convicted banker now serving a term in the Atlanta federal epnftentiary are entirely erroneous.
 Papers presented as g. basis for the Morse pardon are extremely volun1tn- ous. The president has not examined these documents yet, and he insists or sitting every detail of evidence in all pardon applications or appeals for sentence communication.

THE SONG OF THE MYSTIC.

walk down the Valley of Silence Down the dim, voiceless valley
 alone, And I hear not the fall of footstep Around me. save Gods and my own, And the hush of my heart is as holy As hovers where angels have flown! Long ago I was weary of voices Whose music my heart could not
 win;
 Long ago I was weary of places That fretted my soul with their din; Long ago I was weary of places Where I met but the human-and
 sin. -- In the hush of the Valley of Silence I dreamed all the songs that I sing; And the music floats down the dim
 Valley.
 Tin each finds word for a wing, That to heart like the Dove of the
 Deluge,
 A message of eace they may bring. Do you ask me the place of the Valley, Ye hearts that are narrowed ty

 It lieth afar between mountains. And God and His angels are there 1; And one is the dark mount of Sorrow And one the bright mountain of

A NEGLECTED CAREER
@>~

The usual shortage of candidates for cadetships is reported from West Point There are now one hundred vacancies in the class entering next year for which no applicants have presented themselves. and the War Department is urging all senators and representatives entitled to ap- point to see to it that opportunities to enter the military academy do not gos begging. The shortage of one hundred is a little below the annual average The cadet corps at West Point has been for some years past about 25 per cent below its author izedized strength. In l90S'09 114 ex- pected candidates failed to appear and in 19O9-'10 116. The corps has been enlarged since then, and a deficit of only one hundred shows a little pro- gress made in attracting aspirants to c military career.
 It is not a little puZZling that at a time when all the other professions, except possibly the ministry. are ov- er-crowded there should be practical ly no competition whatever for com
 
 Point not only pay nothing for a first class education, but actually re- ceive liberal compensation from the government from the day they put on its uniform. Lawyers, physicians, engineers and even divinity students have to expend a considerable capi- tai preparing themselves to earn a living, and often wait ten to fifteen years before they get any material return on their investment The sol dier receives house rent. medical att tention and allowances of various sorts, besides his salary; his life is insured free if he dies in the line of duty, and a pension is guaranteed him if he is disabled or retired for age. Yet all these special conces- sions fail to make a military career attractive to the youth of today.
 Formerly the army was career eagerly sought in spite of the exces- sive hardships of the frontier life which fell to it's lot in an unsettled country. Now that these hardships have been largely eliminated and liv- ing conditions have become vastly more comfortable the desire to serve has grown feebler instead of stronger. Is it possible that the average Ameri- ca youth has come to regard a mili- tary career as no longer desirable?- New York Tribune.

Our First Cyclone?

Although the witnesses of the de- structive storm which on Wednesday evening swept the towns of Winkel- man and Hayden in the narrow val lev of the Gila, a hundred miles east of Phoenix. describe it as a cyclone" it is not yet clear that it was in fact a cyclone-that is, storm of the type which has made the word cy- clone one of terror to the people of the prairie states.
 More probably, we think, this storm was of the tornado type-that is, a straight "blow" of terrific velocity. If it was of the prairie cyclone type, it was. we believe, the first in the history of Arizona, and therefore unique from the standpoint of the weather observer. Not only have cyclones been unknown in Arizona hitherto, but destructive windstorms of any character have been practi- calIy unknown Indeed, both wind storms and thunderstorms on our deserts of low altitude have been ex- ceedingly rare until recent years. Two decades ago, for example, thunder storms in the Salt River valley were almost unknown. Then, as now, we had the summer rains of July and August, but it was very seldom that the rains were accompanied by thun- der and lightning. But during late years thunder storms have become common, and occasionally there is loss of life from lightning.
 If, in addition to thunder and light ming we are to have an occasional cyclone, it can be said in truth that climatic conditions in this region have radically changed. But, as all ready indicated, we are inclined to doubt the statement that the storm of Wednesday evening was a verit- able cyclone of the prairie type. The CycloHS WHICH lroiH tliile lo lliflc 1dhSS its toll of death in the states of Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, Illinois and Iowa must be seen at close quarters to have its terrors appreciated, and once seen the characteristic phenomena are sure to leave lasting effect upon the most steady nerves. In the states mentioned, the cyclone almost invari- ably moves from the southwest to the northeast, and equally invariably, is an event of the afternoon or early evening, and is most likely to happen 1ow-hanging cloud of angry, boiling
