MENOCAL E HATED
Many Are in Rebellion Against
 Cuba'S President.
Chief Executive Has Dropped an Army of Officehelders From the Pay Roll--Cuha. at Present, Owes
 Over $65 ,0oo GOO.

Boston.-President Mario Menocal is engaged in the interesting expert ment of giving the island eCuba) an honest native government, R. H. P. writes in the Boston Transcript No policy other than the eXtfrpation of graft and the punishment of grafters has been marked out by his admins tration, but this alone has favorably impressed Washington, if the state departments approval of the proposed $10,000,000 Cuban lean is any erite- rion.
 President Menocal found when he as sumed office last May. Since the model provisional government, con. ducted by Major Gen. Leonard Wood following the civil war, at an expense of about sls.000,000. has turned over the island to the natives, the annual expenditure has risen to about $40. 000,000 Even the second American occupation continued the steady in. crease instead of providing a much. needed lesson in economy. Governor Magoon left the Cuban treasury with less money than he found in it.
 The federal departments had been crammed with the heelers and follow CTS of various political leaders who profited from this vast fiscal prosper ity, and the heeiers and follow CTS worked into the pay roll their own heelers and followers, and so on down the list. The number of persons whose working attitude was feet on desk grew appallingiy large. Holding office was a genteel and lucrative oc- political perspicacity and difference to ones political chieftain,
 All administrations in Cuba as well as in the United States are expected to make changes in the personnel of government upon assuming office, but Senor Menocal has violated all the rules. To many of the vacancies ere ated by the official headsmen he ap pointed no one at all. Reduction of the force is his policy This is held to work a double hardship On poli tieians who confidently believed that their working days were over on the day of their appointment The dis missed ones now face want. The for tunate ones who remained are obliged to perform gore work. The despera tion of the situation really requires nc 1 further comment, but it is being lu ridly discussed in the cantinas of Ha vana where the busted congregate 1 Mario Menocal is a failure, they de clare.

KING CANNOT ACCEPT lK0N
Costly Gift by Arabian Tribe Not Off cia and Goes Begging
 in London.

London.-A mothcr-ofpearl ikoa of ihe Lords Last Supper, almost identical to that presented to the em= peror Of Russia by the sultan of Tur- key as peace offering on the out break Of the late war with Italy, is in London awaiting a claimant. 1t was destined for King George. but because it is not an official gift it cannot be presented to him, and, since no one else has a right to accept 1t. the ikon remains without master
 The sultan ordered the Kobi, an Arabian tribe celebrated for it's mother of-pesrl work, to mf ke an ikoD of the Lords Last Supper for presentation to the Russian emperor One of the members of the trihe, who h.-d served in the British army. insisted that it would be the grossest discourtesy to his royal master if a similar gift was not made for King George
 When the Russian gift was finished the agents of the sultan paid for it and carried it away, but the kobi tribes men did pot know how to send the replica to King George. 1t was finally taken to Sir John Gray Hill of Liver pool who maintains winter home on the Mount Of Olives in Jerusalem Lady Hill paid the tribesmen for their work and brought the ikon to London

WINNIE DAlE'S NOTE
By GEORGE ELMER coee.

It's a rather forlorn proposition" remarked Biggs, the only lawyer In the frontier town of Sierra.
 T have already taken that view of the case" responded Maurice Allen in rather gloomy tone.
 Too bad you wasted the time and money coming way out here. If you have four thousand dollars cash you can fix it up"
 T have scarcely four thousand cents" replied Maurice definitely. Still, I am not sorry that I came,' he added to himself. and the thought brought brighter expression to his face.
 You see" explained the lawyer. the Triumph mine is penalized for two thousand five hundred dollars. Then there are some outside claims against it. There is still an equity of redemption, but it runs for only thirty days"
 T cannot raise the money" declared Maurice. Miss Dale, as you know, has no means. We will have to let the prop erty go by default"
 As Maurice left the attorneys off ice and rather gbomily walked along the poor streets of the primitive mining settlement he had a deal to occupy his thoughts. His father had died in the east few months previous, leaving barely enough to pay his debts. Only one possible asset was diseovered-a half interest in the Triumph mine at Sierra. His partner in that enterprise had been Samuel Dale.
 Maurice had come west to see if there was anything tangible to the proposition. It was to find Samuel Dale dead and his daughter Winnie teaching the one school in the dis triet
 He found her as helpless as himself in the way of finances. He marveled to discover this educated girl, the graduate of a high class eastern col lege, among such crude environment In fact she and himself were about the only persons In the settlement of any refinement and culture.
 He was interested in her the mo ment he met her, and her sad story won his deepest sympathy and regard It appeared that her father was ar old friend of the father of Maurice, who 1 had financed the mine. It's value was undeniable, but MT. Allen had died al a time when more capital was needed 1 and MT Dale broke down under the

 Cuba's debt is now about $65, 5,000,0 900.
 The new $10,0s0,000 loan will be used largely to discharge obligations incurred by the preceding administra- tion of Gomez or by the American provisional governmsn snt that admins tered the affairs of the island from September 29. 1906. until January 27, 1909.
 Of course it is not easy to keep a surplus in the Cuban treasury. The fertility of suggestion as to how any treasury cash can wisely -. always wisely-be expended is. perhaps, great CT in Havana than in any other capi. tai of the world Nevertheless, Presi- dent Menocal appears ably competent to resist these worthies and also to put some of them to flight. His sus- pension of the operation of the con tract with the Port Works company is case in point. This organization, by virtue of concession obtained from the Gomez government, was to make certain harbor improvements in return for which the privilege of levy. ing harbor dues on all shipping was extended for long period of years The supreme court Of Cuba promptly sustained the presidents action.

HENRY WILL CLAIM
HIS MIND WAS BLANK
Slayer Of Three Persons at Woodson,
Ill, Returns to Scene of
Crime.

JACKSONVILLE, Ill, Jan, 81
John Henry, accused of killing three
persons at Woodson last Tuesday night
and who returned to his own fireside
Friday night, was brought TO the jail
here by Sheriff Rogers early this morn
ing.
The prisoner had little to say, except
that he has engaged attorneys and will
fight the charges against him.
The story told by Henry to rel
ative is that he suffered lapse Of
memory which covers the time of tho
murders up to Friday When he recov-
cred his memory he was in lodging
house in st, Louis. He telephoned his
brother living in East st. Louis. While
standing at tho telephone his eyes fell
on a copy of newspaper lying near
and he saw in great headlines about n
triple murder at Woodson. Attracted by
mention of his home town he read
further and was mortified to find that
be was snid to be the murderer, and
that two Of his neighbors and best
friends were victims. This, he told
the relative who repeated the story,
was the first intimation he had of the
crime. Henry claims he then hurried
home, as he wanted to see his family
again before giving himself up to the
sheriff
