cuBA,s TROUBLES.

If reports are correct the financial
condition of the Cuban republic is any
thing but satisfactory and it must be
matter of much concern to that island
republic as to what should be done to
relieve the situation. One might suppose
in view Of the services that have previ-
ously been performed for it and the in
torres. that continues to be taken in t
that Cuba would naturally turn to the
United States in it's dilemma. It is a
wild and radical view, however which is
expressed by one of its newspapers when
the destruction of property belonging TO
foreigners and amounting to nearly a
third of billion is urged before sub
hitting to any outside interference.
Such an attitude is that of threatening
to bite the hand of the one that would
befriend it and it cannot be pelleved that
1t reflects the sentiment Of the people,
even though there may be a feeling that
Cuba can rally from its present position
without assistance.
Whatever is done, if there IS anything
in the way of Intervention, will not he

that it is the proper thing to do under

plunging itself into bankruptcy. What
ever service we might render would be
undertaken as a friend for the best inter
est of the island government.
It is most unfortunate that it has per
mitted itself through politics or other
conditions to get into a situation where
| It cannot bring about an adjustment Of
! its own problems, or where it cannot
/ keep its head above water. The resent
ment shown to the idea of permitting E
helping hand to administer aid may re
suit from the belief that any move of the
kind would result in a re-occupation o.
the island but that can neither be con
templated or accomplished. We are no
seeking Cuba, but as we have done il
the past we are ready to give it the bene
fit Of our assistance in any way posi-

FAMOUS MEN.
ALFRED TENNYsoN.

Alfred Tennyson, the most represent
tative poet of the Victorian age, lived TO
the extreme age of eighty-three, and for
three score and ten of these years the
poet was almost constantly employed in
eDrlching English literature His first
poems were written when he was
schoolboy, and the year of his death,
1892. saw the publication of a volume of
his latest verse, Death OF Aenone and
Other Poems"
Three years before the publication of
this volume, when Tennyson was eighty
years of age he presented to the public
his more pretentious work, "Demster and
other Poems" The general tone of crit
cism was gratifying and to the effect
that the poems were wonderful produc-
/ tons for man of four score years, that
they were especially remarkable for
rythm and strength and close-paeked
diction, and that there was throughout a
trustful peace and resignation in the eve
ming of life, which touched the heart of
the great public"
In this year also was published the
| three interesting poems "To Edward
| Lear" 1.-THE Daisy and 1.-THE Palace of
Art" The publishers accepted the book
on condition that zone hundred copies
were signed by Lord Tennyson." and all
|
/ did SO because of his affection for Mr..
Lear. who illustrated 1.-THE Palace of
Arr"
Tennyson wrote his beautiful poem.
| Crossing the Bar''-one Of the most
sublime short poems in the English Ian
euage-iu his eighty-frst year, on day
4 in October, says his son, when we came
from Aldworth to Farringford. Before
reaching Farringford he had the Moan
ing of the Par in his mind, and after din
ner he showed me this poem written
out"
After the son read the poem he said to
his father. "This is the crown of your
life's work" To this Tennvson replied
ct came in a moment" Put Crossing
the Bar. at the end of all editions Of my
poems"
Tennyson spent the last few years Of
his life entertaining friends, with a walk
of an hour and half to two hours be-
fore luncheon along the Downs and IT
reading many books mostly fiction. His
favorite writer was Trackeray, but hi
was also very fond of the novels Of Sil
Walter Scott and Jane Austen.
Tennyson's eighty-second winter wa!
: spent in revision of his poems for
new single volume edition. He walked
t regularly for an hour and a half on fin
S days and on stormy days paced up AM
down the mushroom or practiced gym
nastic exercises with his legs and arms
His son writes of him: "At eighty-tw
father preserved the high spirits Q
n youth. He would defy his friends to ge
up twenty times quickly from a low chat
without touching it with their hands
n while he was performing this feat him
i self and one afternoon he had a Ion
walk with NJ In the ballroom"

b fond Of writing poems to new metel
. for example, his "Akhar's Dream writ

was followed by "Kapiolani' and ''Whil
and Follow the Sun" The latter was til
1t last poem Tennyson finished. The grea
e poet breathed his last on October 6, 1S9.
at 1.25 in the morning.

There was no response TO the impatient
knocking on the heavy doors of the Adj
ans Express company's building near the
end of the Columbus (O) union station,
one night in the middle of winter There
stood the train with the usual hustle and
clamor preparatory to departure, but the
express clerk and his assistant had not
made their appearance.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
This time John GrossInan, the express
messenger. knocked harder than ever, for
it was beginning to dawn upon him that
something must be wrong. moment
later he tried the knob of the door. To
his amazement it turned easily and he
stepped forward into utter darkness,
stumbling over boxes and packages until
he reached the gas jet in the~center of the
room. Papers and parcels lay in wild
confusion all over the floor, the door of
the safe stood open, and the clerk and
his assistant were lying in one corner, in
a sort of stupor.
1t was evident that the two men had
been chloroformed-the sickening odor of
the drug still pervaded the ~oom-and
that the company had been robbed, in
spite of the fact that hundreds of people
had been just outside the building all
during the evening These circumstances,
coupled with the fact that $40, 900 was
missing from the safe, were all that Allan
Pinkerton had to work upon when he

STOLEN AUTOMOBILES

Inerc are communities which suffer
more from the theft Of automobiles than
others, but there are very few which
have not experienced the loss Of one or
more cars n the hands OF auto thieves.
In the large centers such practice has
come 70 be a profitable business and
when II is shown that cars are being
stolen IN New York city ar the rate Of
IA a day and that 90 per cent Of them
are never recovered it IS quite natural
that there should be made in that city a
move for more effectively dealing with
this situation. The quicker and more ef-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Takes Exceptions to f. w. NJ.


Mr.. Editor: In reply to the letter sign
ed F. W. NJ. 1 would like to ask the
writer why he should advocate the use
of whiskey and beer in pneumonia ii
alcohol is poisonouS?" How many does
he believe would be lying in their graves
today if their death had been caused by
having taken a little wine for the
stomach sake?" Very few, indeed. If
man becomes so weak that he must
take to using drugs because he can't
get rum, then it's time to place him in
some sanatorium where he can have an
opportunity to get over the unnatural
craze-for he has become irresponsible
and is not fit to be given chance to in
jure himself or others. We all know that
too many haye been killed through both
the use and abuse of the rum evil. II
is strange how many persons find the
Scripture so convenient to quote when
it suits the persons usually who sell
dom, if ever, open the Bible at any 9TH
er time. While many temperance socie-
ties were organized and have been for
century and longer, prohibition was
not spoken of until about the year 1880.
1t was then that Ex-Governor John P.
st. John, Of Kansas was nominated on
the prohibition ticket. 1 have never yet
known person who advocated whiskey
or beer for the sick people that did not
do SO because they wished it for their
own stomach's sake and it is hard for
me to believe that while the world is
being ruined through selfishness one
man can be found in our midst who
shows the unseIfish trait that F. W. NJ
has shown, namely, recommending it for
either pneumonia cases and those who
are run down.
