stranger who had so excited him.

too. Never was there heard a worse
racket than Sammy and Blacky
made as they each tried to talk
louder and faster than the other.
Neither was listening to what the
other was saying, which in itself
was very impolite, even if they
were cousins. Worse still. each kept
interrupting the other, and, you
know, there is nothing more impo.
lite than to interrupt when another
is speaking. But neither seemed
to mind in the least. Each kept
right on talking and growing more
and more excited.
OF course. all the little people
within hearing hurried over to find
out what it all meant. But they
couldn't understand at all what
Sammy and Blacky were talking
about. You see, Sammy and Blacky
interrupted each other so often that
all that those who were listening
could make out was that there was
a great big stranger in the Green
Forest, stranger who wore black
fur and was as big as Farmer
Browns boy. Now, none Of the lit
tie people knew of any one as big
as Farmer Browns boy unless it
was another boy or a man. But
Sammy and Blacky said that the
stranger was not a man. So all their
neighbors shook their heads sadly
and said: They're crazy" and
then again shook their heads sadly.

Cuba Independent

On May 81 of 1886 a new treaty
between the United States and
Cuba was ratified. This treaty
superseded that of May %, 1908,
and abandoned the right of the
United States to intervene in the
internal affairs of Cuba under
the so-ca11ed Plat amendment.
Under the authority Of this
treaty the United States had inter-
vened on five occasions. The re-

BUSINESS GLOOM
CITED BY AYRES
Second Quarter Brought
"Pessimistic Prosperity"
He Declares.
BY EDWARD G. STONE.

The second quarter Of 1887 so far
has been period Of "pessimistic pros
perity," Col. Leonard p Ayres, Cleve-
land Trust Co. economist. declared to-
day in his monthly review, adding that
production has increased in volume,
employment has advanced, wages have
risen, profits have been larger, but
business sentiment has been predomi-
nately gloomy and there has been
much discussion of recession or
slump.
Probably the real explanation of the
disagreement between business senti-
ment and business statistics, says Col.
Ayres, Is to be found in the fact that
there has been long continued de-
cline in the security markets. That is
condition which never fails to pro-
duce gloom among business men, even
though their own affairs may be en-
tlrely unaffected by the price declines,
he says.
In actual statistical terms business
activity is probably running at levels
about l8 per cent higher than those
OF year ago and earnings of corpora
tions have recorded during the past
quarter the largest increases of the
entire recovery period The volume
OF new residence construction now ap-
pears to be rapidly increasing after its
long period of laggard activity, prob
ably due to the vigorous advance in
house rents.
In conclusion, Col Ayres asserts
that business men are intently watch
Ing progress in Congress on four i'm
portant bills, reorganization of Fed
eral courts, reorganization of execu-
tive departments, regulation of agri-
culture and regulation of wages, hours
and labor conditions in industry.
