The Golden
Heart
By BARBARA PHlPPS

There has never been an invasion OF
an enemy's country that the invader
has not made willing captives of Z
number Of the daughters of the region
invaded. During the war between the
states many Union soldier wooed and
won southern girl whose antagoniSm
against the Union armies was very
bitter. There seems to be something
In the social relations that defes the
horrors of war.
Lieutenant Joaquin Molina, a young
Spanish officer just out of his teens,
was during the last years Of the last
century sent with his command to
Cuba. Those were the days when
General Weyler was attempting to
crush the Cuban revolution by execu-
ton and Imprisonment, and both he
and Spanish soldiers were hated by the
downtrodden Cubans

PULLED STUMPS TO MUSIC.
Brass Bands Played to Tighten Labor
In Canadian Army Camp.

Camp Borden, Canada.-Never before
was stamping done to the accompani
ment of martial music. Four battal-
ions were engaged the other day in up
roofing old pine stumps while their
brass bands played in the midst to
tighten the labor and to allay any pain
old Mother Earth might feel in the
process of extra ction.
About million stumps have been re
moved in the camp area. As the ground
Is sandy, the roots are easily pulled up
with a stumping machine. They are
then gathered together in heaps and
set on fire. The Sight of these bonfres
on the plain at night in the vicinity OF
the camp is reminiscent of Homer's

DOG GUARDS NEWSPAPERS.
Growls When Passersby Read the

Chicago.-Newsboys with street cor

the time a passerby may stop and read
the headlines of these sellers ON their
stands. One of these sellers has left
the final verdict to his dog
Nellie has been so well trained she
seems to know when a person means
just to keep on reading with no inten-
ton of buying.
Nellie passes many hours daily on a
shelf in the stand where her masters
papers are displayed. When a pedes-
trian stops long enough TO read the
war news of both Europe and Mexico
she utters a slight growl. The next
warning is a bit louder. If the reader
still does not move on, Nellie gets up
on her feet and thereafter war dis
patches hold no further interest for the

A Glorious American Privilege.
! Quite true In this glorious America
of ours every citizen is privileged to
consult his own pleasure in spending
his money. He can spend it or hoard
it up. or be may contribute it for the
purpose of building monuments to the
memory of great men. No one can
lawfully dispute that right.
Likewise the soil robber has the
right to use his land as he wishes and
without any consideration for it's flu
ture fertility. The land belongs to
him. and be can do as be pleases with
it. He is a free man. surrounded by
hundreds of laws enacted for the pro
lection of his rights.

Interesting Decision Given Late
Today by Public Service
Commissioners

The Public Service Commission in
an opinion by Commissioner .Rilling
to-day made an order on the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company to estab-
lish joint taric not exceeding 60
cents per ton for the shipment of pet
roleum in tank cars from the plant of
the Waverly Oil Works Company in
Pittsburgh to that of the Etna Chemi-
cal Company at Benvenue. The rail-
road had offered rate of 60 cents
The complainant alleged that the
route taken was too long and the
company answered that it routed the
cars so as to avoid congestion of traf-
tic in the Pittsburgh district. The
opinion says: I'VE think the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company, on ac-
count of the congested condition of the
locality through which this shipment
would be made if carried over the
shortest and most direct route, is JUS
titled in making such shipment by a
more circuitous route, if by so doing
1t prevents congestion and delay in the
large amount of traffic it is daily re-
quired TO move in said district. The
Pennsylvania Railroad Company can
not, in determining how this shipment
shall be made consider alone the in
terest of the complainant and it must
render it's services to- all of it's pat
rons, having due consideration for the
welfare and interest of them all, and
serve them in such a manner as to
do the least injury to any of them"
