of HE i POLITICS SHOULD INTEREST EVERY MAN. Ey Marcus A. fauna, Ctafetf States Senator from Ohio. It you do not make it a point to interest yourself in polities actively, I mean to work for the beat principles and to sup port the best candidates, you are not a good citizen. Your country is a collec tion of individuals. Its power result from the union of these individuals. Your country gives you tremendous benefit. It protects you in the enjoyment of your life, your liberty and your happiness. It guards your home, your family, hold up high ideals for you and your children. What return do you make for all thiaf u. a. Think the matter over. Do you Hon estly think you do as much as you shauld ? The government of your country begins with the abor hood caLus-the caucus that is held just a few block, from here you live. It works up from the caucus to the city county. State and national conventions, from the townsbp board to the United State House of Representative, the Senate and the White House. Do you attend your caucus? Do you care to know when or where it will be held? Would you give up vonr least important business or social engage ments to attend it? Let each man answer these questions for himself. The man who does not discharge this plain duty is not the citizen he should be. Politics would be on a higher plnne if all the citizens interested themselves in the caucus. If you want to do something for your country you Always have the chance if you are in politics. No doubt you (vould respond to a call to arms. Of course you would, you say. Then why don't you respond to the simplest demand? In the matter of working for the interests of this country there must be no distinction between classes. Each man as a man must do his duty. He must prove that he is worthy of the suffrage by in teresting himself in the government of his own community. FUTURE Of THE INDIAN. By General T. J. Morgan. Will education save the remnant of American Indians? Yes, as men and women; not as tribes. The Indians as a peculiar, distinct, separate senii barbarons people are doomed to disappear. Indiauism is an anachronism and must pass away. Education is the only hope of the red men and women; it offers them salvation. Those who accept it will be saved as American citizens. Those who refuse it will Ierish. What I mean-by this is that it is inevitable that the Indians, like all other elements in our national life, must become ob sorbed by the nation and lose their distinctive racial peculiari ties, the one exception to this probably being the negro. It is impossible that the Indians should maintain their tribal organizations with separate governments, being a sort of nation within a nation, and have their own peculiar civiliza tion; it is both undesirable and impossible. Education is the means of bringing the Individual Indians into such relationship with our national life that they will desire the same things which the white people desire. They will adopt our ideals or individual hope, cease to think and feel like Iudiuns and feel and think only as American citizens. quaintance as compared with that of his forefathers Is simplj enormous. The acquaintances of any busy man in the busy hive of twentieth century industry are numbered not by the score nor by the hundred but by the thousand. 2. With an increased humauitarianism under which men are more truly brothers than ever before, there is no need to ordinary cases for the formation of friendship's link, at least as a means of mutual-succor and support, 3. Moreover, the very wear and tear of modern ale. Its ceaseless and increasing struggle in the teeth of ever fieroer competition iu all walks of life, the effort that is needed to gain a livelihood or make a nan-.? all these leave scanty leis ure and small inclination for fcning new friendships or even keeping up those already formed. . Friendship, however, perhaps has not changed so much in degree as in kind. No arguments are needed to establish the admitted truth that the social intercourse of the sexes, rhich now supplies so many of the closest and most exalted friend ships, was in former years far less satisfactory than nnder modern civilization it has now become. . indeed, in most cases it was simply non-existent. And in this great and almost magical elevation of woman kind mentally, physically and-morally, is to be found what I called just now one of those providential compensations that are frequently to be met with when :at first sight one is apt to imagine that such and such a virtue that nourished in the good old times is beginning to fall into decay.

By Representative Robert 6. Cousins, of Iowa. I cannot see uny assured happiness for the Cuban pedple, and I mean, of course, commercial prosperity when- I say this, except through annexation, ' I have al ways believed that to be the only solution of one of the most vexatious problems that has ever confronted the people of the United States, to whom Cuba looks as a child toward its parent. The men who represent the" business interests of the island have always favored annexa tion, and to-day they desire it more than ever, I think it rather premature when ' Cuba is spoken of as a possible State in our Union. That is so remote that it is uobt. o. cousixs. a wagte of time to consider it. The bone and sinew of the island,' the thinking men there who have the best interests of their country at stake, desire a political alliance with 'the United States, for without it they cannot occupy a position which gives them standing commer cially with other countries. I fear the first outbreak will come from the laboring class, and such a happening would be most disastrous. Let Cuba come in as a territory before internecine strife, brings back to her once more the devastation and misery she suffered through Spanish tyranny. Handicapped. .

Hill, President of Great Northern Railway. 1'he only serious objection to so-called trusts has been the method of creating them not for the purpose of manufactur ing any public commodity in the first place, but for the purpose of selling sheaves of printed securities which rep resent nothing more than good will atd prospective profits to the promoters. If it is the desire of the general gov ernment, through Congress, to prevent the growth of such corporations, it has always seemed to me that a simple remedy was within its roach. Under the constitutional provision allowing Congress to regulate commerce between the States all companies desir ing to transact business out of the State iu which they are Incorporated should be held to a uniform provision of federal law. They should satisfy a commission that their capital stock was actually paid up in cash or in property, at a fair valuation, just as the capital of the national bank is certified to be paid up. With that simple law the temptation to make companies for the purpose of selling prospective profits would be at an cud, and at the same time Do legitimate business would suffer. J. J. 1ULL. COLLEGE COURSE MUST BE SHORTENED. By President Barpsr, University of Chicago. The feeling grows stronger In every quarter that the college course, at least for those who are to en gage in a profession, must be shortened. Many men who are preparing for a profession are distinctly in jured by the last year or two in college. There arc some men for whom the college, atmosphere, as dis tinguished from that of the professional school, is not a wholesome one. Men who in college, idle away their time in many cases find the more strenuous life of professional train ing exactly suited to their needs. It does not seem that the Harvard plan of three years meets with general favor, even in Cambridge, although, accord ing to the official report, 40 per cent of, the. men now graduat ing from Harvard College finish their academic work in three rears. It would seem to be. a better plan to allow those who do not contemplate a professional course of study to take the full four years of work in college and to arrange for the other class to count their early professional work as a part of the work accepted for the bachelor's degree. A great forward step in the direction of this policy has been taken in the receut action of Yale. This policy has been adopted as the basis for the organization of the schools of medicine and law in the University of Chicago. It is the most practical solution of the problem which confronts us and bids fair to be the commonly accepted solution witnin a short time. IS FRIENDSHIP DYING OUT? By Rev. J. Hudson, British Essayist. There is an nppureut decay of friendship, and if uv inquire into the reason of this 1 think we might attribute it to one or other of all of the following a uses or circumstances: 1. In these days of rapid communication by sea and land, in the frequent and incessant congregation CHARACTER VS. SALARY. By George 6. Williams. Men who are trusted with such large amounts ought not to be too young, for temptations are strong er with the young than with those who have arrived at more mature years and have experienced the severe trials of many temptations. It goes without saying that men who are trusted with large amounts of securities o'uicht to be better paid than those whose duties are of less1 importance and whose positions are without special responsibility.

Several women lu Germany are now making beautiful and artistic orna ments and household uteuslls out of tin. Apparently the first to utilize her talents In this direction was Frau Clara Hoppenrath. of Berlin. She fash ioned artistic tin vases, and since then she has made a beautiful Imitation of a cluster of silver thistles, which has been bought by the King of Roumanla. Tin Is an easy metal to manipulate, and any woman who is a good artist will have little difficulty In shaping It as she desires. The design must first be carefully drawn on the tin. or rather punched In It. and then as carefully cut out Only a few tools are needed for the work, and the necessary skill lu their use can soon be acquired. As decorations for articles of majolica and wood delicate tin ornaments are now becoming popular In Germany, and al most all of them are made by women. and why they are dangerous. It is well kuowu that stables are great nurseries of files. It seems hopeless to attempt to regulate stables so that tiles won't I breed In them, but a good deal can be j done by the use of knowledge and of sense; nnu wuere stables are so placed that their flies are particularly annoy ing the use of chloride of lime will help matters very much. The great central truth about flics and the danger from them seems to be, the cleaner the place the fewer the flies and the less duugtr from those that are there. Common Hies do not secrete poison; they merely carry It. Don't leave any pols- n around where they can get at it Bury filth; keep garbage In proper receptacles, and remove It promptly. FU S AND ADMINISTRATION. Much Is Beinir Done Toward a Better Understanding;. The present administration Is opposed to flies and Is fighting them through the Department of Agriculture. Dr. How ard, chief of the division of entomology. Is the general directing the campaign, which Is being prosecuted at present chiefly by the distribution of pamphlets telling about all sorts of files, their vari ous habits and dangerous propensities, l'or the better study of them 2,300 were caught in kitchens and dining rooms In all parts of the country and put on trial. says a writer In Harper's Weekly. Of these, !S per ceut were common house Hies. The house fly does uot bite or sting. The greatest danger from him arises from his neglect to wipe his feet He will tramp over filth and infected matter and straightway track his accu mulation over anything that any near by familv may be having for dinner. It is easier to discourage flies altogether than to teach them better habits. Gen eral Entomologist Howard talks of a war of extermination, but the first and in st practicable thing to do is to teach people In general as much as possible PRETTY BOOKKEEPER J3INS SALVATION ARMY RANKS.

' i lie Arabian coffee maker, havjng piepareu nis nre of charcoal and placed near it a huge pot containing water. takes a few handfuls of green-coffee berries, carefully culls out all Imper- rect oerries and foreign substances and then places the best of the berries In ii iron iaaie neia over the fire. The berries are permitted to roast until they begin to smoke, and are then while still uncharred, placed In a small mortar and carefully brayed with a pestle closely fitting the cup of the mortar. The berries are not. however, re duced to a dust While this process has been going on a small pot has been half filled with tepid water from the large pot and placed over the fire.

Dogs of War. - There are numerous Instances on rec ord where dogs have displayed won derful intelligence in war, when car rying messages while in action and when acting as carriers to points or stations at a distance. An officer of my acquaintance, while campaigning against Indians in the Northwest, would always collect a few dogs from each settlement he passed through and take them along to the country of the hostlles. When Important to send back messages at a time when It was Impos sible to get a soldier through the sur rounding tribes, these dogs, with pa pers attacnea to tneir collars, were dis patched to the settlements from which they came, and thus official common! cations were passed along to headquar ters.

According to Chief of Detectives Mil ler, there are curious changes of fash Ion among women criminals, just as among their more honest sisters, says the Philadelphia Record. "Take, for instance." said he, "the matter of how women pickpockets conceal upon their persons the coin which they steal. JJia vou ever know that the place of con cealment varies with" them from year to year? Back in 1890 they hid it in their hair, and in searching a woman thief the head was always the first thins to be examined. In the neigh borhood of 1895 they hid It in their shoes. Try her shoe first, miss,' I al ways used to say to the female search- In handinz over a woman tnier.
