Prssldent Worried over Cobs. Tbi president is much worritd and annoyed over the situation in Cuba as developed by the election. All tbe news that has been received here concerning it is disquieting and threatening. It shows tbat the anti American party, as the factipn hea ted oy Gomez and Cioneros is called, is largely in the ascendency among the people. This party is in favor of severing the ties that bold the island to the Uuited States, of settiag up an inde pendent republic and sending home Gov -Gen. Wood and the remnant f tbe American army on the island. Its victory at tho pjlis is assured, but whether it will ever be permitted to tat the fruits of tbat victory remains to be een. A strong annexationist sentiment has been developing iv. tho White House and else where in Washington. Tbe proximity l the November election has acted as a re-training influence in preventing a general unifeHtatinn of this senti ment. President McKinley fears tbat if be were to give voice to the desire of his adviers to seize and bold Cuba regardless of sacred promises he would lose votes. It is polnte 1 out that the coming election will settle nothing ex cept to show tbat the autonomists are in a majority. It was called only to name the preamble of a constitutional convention. Months will elapse, cays a Washing ten dispatch, be'oro a" constitution can be drafted. Gov -Gen. Wood, in his capacity of military dictator, can override the convention and set aside its work. He may not undertake to do this, but there are reasons for be lieving Vbat such is the program tbat has been agreed upon. Guarded ad missions from oSjcia s whs enjoy the president's continence all indlcat tbat Cuba is no nearer liberty thm sho was under Spanish rnle. 1 fee outlook for a Cuban republic I4 gloomy and distant. Tbe Porco aticaw Oatrage. The republican administration and cong. ess have autocratically and de liberatelv disfranchised thousands of citizens cf Porto Kico. Iu bis annual report made by "njcrruary of War Koot. in December. 1899, he says on page 400 oi sa ia report: 1 think the basis of suffrage should ba that all who read aud write, or who hold property up to a small specilied amount may vote; and no others." Following up this scheme of the re publican secretary of war to deny tbe rtgut 01 mannnou sun rage to a la rge number of Porto Hicans, tbe republit-aii congress, at its ses-ion lat winter, pi iced the following provision in the law for tho government of this island: ' At such (all) elections all citizens of Porto Rico hhall be allowed to vote who have been bona tide residents for one year and who possess tbe other jualincttions of voters under tbe laws and mllitarv orders in force March 1. 1900." (See Public Docu ment No 69. pge 7). Ia order to ascertain what tbe laws and military orders In force March 1, 19u0. are. we have only to look at paragraph 8. page 3. of general or ders No ItiO, issued by Gen. Dvis. mllitarv commander of Porto Kico. C:t. 12" 1899. which says: An elect or to vote at such elections shall pos sess the following qualifications: He mu t be a bona tide male resident of the municipality. He must be over 21 years of age on date of election. He must be a taxpar in tbe munici ptlity in which he Votes at the date of this order, or he mast be able to read and write " Wbile a number of states, such as Massachusetts North Carolina. Con necticut and Louisiana, have pre scribed educational qualifications for ters. this republican measure en acted for Porto Rico is tbe first at- mpt in tbe historv of our republic to prescribe a property sjualitication since Thomas Jefferson, the great champion of human rights, succeeded in giving to every man. rich and poor alike, the right to exercise his elec tive franchise as a free American citi zen. Think how many thousands of Porto Rh-ans. under Spanish oppression, hare never had aa opportunity either to learn to read or write or to acquire property. Tte-e ar not. under re publican rnle. permitted to vote; jt un.er tbe Spanish rule they were nev er denied this right. What, then, must be the natural conclusion? The trusts, threngh whose infiaence free trade was denied by congress to the Porto Rifcans, have afso dicta-ed a property qualification for the voters of Inat unfortunate Isl and.

I This Is a picture of Mary C. Under wood and her faithful dog. and they Doth live In Cbambersburp, Pa. Mary 1 only years old, but she is a very determined little miss, as the following will show: When Miss Naomi S. Rice, Cham txTsfcurg's census enumerator, was WARY AAD HEK DOU. going ber rounds, she met Mary, -who insisted that if she was to be taken in the census her dog, the child's faithful guardian, should go there too. A snap shot picture was taken of the little one and her faithful companion, and thi obliging young census woman gravely assured the tot that she and her dog would form a part of Uncle Sam's records at Washington. Cincinnati Commercial Tribune. Facts About Postage Stamps. Hardly more thau SO years ago Uncle Fam began the use of postage stamps. At that time they were sold In 6olld sheets, and the letter writer who didn't have a pair of scissors handy frequent ly spoiled several stamps and his tern per in the bargain In his effort to get one whole stamp for postage. Loss and Inconvenience from, this cause were so great that the government offered a liberal prize for a device which would overcome the nuisance. Tbe first machine submitted cut the stamps entirely apart, but the perforat ing machine was Boon after adopted by the postofflce department and has been In use ever since. Years ago, before people learned to use a sponge Instead of licking a stamp, great care was used In provld Ing exceptionally good paper and ran- rilage. The government has since saved money by adopting cheaper ma tcrlals. Tbe annual disposal of post age stamps lu the United States Is normous. During the year ending .iune 30. 1S91, the government receiv ed $41.4D2.129.50 Income from letter postage. It is safe to put the total number of 2 cent stamps used each year at over 2,000,000,000. ,.,-,... i - A Military Doc The transport Britannic recently left Southampton docks with the Second f battalion of the Cheshire regiment for service iu South Africa. While the visitors were leaving the sLip a fine black retriever dog ran up the gang way and tried to get on bourd, but was driven back. It made several attempts, but each time without success. The vessel cast off its moorings and moved out of the dock. The dog then jumped into the water and swam after her, The people saw that the dog was re solved to follow the regiment. A boat put off and picked up the dog, and then It was hauled on board the great ship. The curious thing is that no one on board knew nnything about tin dog. It had not followed Its mas ter, which might have explained its strong desire for foreign service. The Ave Riddle. An eccentric old woman resided In a place where there were many summer visitors und. being tbe oldest lnhab itant of the place, was always pointed out as such and considered quite a curiosity. Very many people when Informed of this fact invariably asked her how old she was. but on account of being asked that question so often instead of giv ing a direct reply she always answered as follows: "Prom seven-eighths (T) of my age deduct twice two (2). Multiply the re mainder by six-sevenths (0-7) of 14. aud divide the product so obtained by eight-ninths (S-9) of one-half (V9 of 54 aud the quotient will equal eighty seven (ST) divided by two (2)." How old was she? , . The Mag-pie aid the Owl. A Tain little magpie, 00 foasip intent. To ber neighbor, the owl, in the bolloor tre went. "What, tire pin; at noondar, when all are abroad? ntne to invite you to dine at my board.

"I'm afraid, my dear friet-d. If I may max so' now,. It must be a airn yon are fatt grovlnr old." The owl was annoyed, though be gravely replied To h;i nippant young friend who thus dared to dc riue : Pray, pare your regrets with respect to sight; I am a:eery iust now. but will see you tonight." When da i light bad faded and cool shades of night Ou the undscap wen closing and hiding from i'.ght. The tree where the magpie aloft sat at rest ? owl tor young mics set out on bis quest. And through the dim thicket he flew with a screech. Arviiing his neighbor, ssleep in the beech. WXiC. sieei-ing at twilight? Cvme out with tor now." "I cn"l fcre." said magpie, "one wing's length, I row." 'U that aor said the owL "Then I grieve t behold It is plain as the sight you are fast growing old Bet ail Jesting saide.

The Great Advantages Such a School Is to Our City. The manager, C. B. Ward, request us to urge upon all tho ladies to call at the rooms and see the work being done by the pupils. Certainly such an education is of great valuo to anyone and while we believe in a theoretical education, we would urge upon all not to neglect tho "practical." which all must have in order to succeel.
