Some papers are complaining that Cuba is not Cuba Libre under Gen. Brooke's administration. What would they have? Do they want the Cuban's idea of "Libre" to prevail, and idea which means the killing of all Span iards, the confiscaton of ther piroperty and the turning of the island over to armed bands, the leader of each try ing to establish himself as a dictator for the time being? If this- 9s the kind of "Cuba Libre" wanted, a.nd if the United States government yields to such demands, it were better that the Spanish rule had not been overthrown. Our government cannot affc rd to en courage anarchy and establish it where a government, although bad, previous ly existed, and those papers playing the changes on "Cuba Libre™ would be the first to abuse the administration for fearful conditions in Cuba if Amer ican control was ended set Nashville American.

A well known Albany angler had a unique experience this summer trout fishing up in Canada. He was sent out from camp to catch a mess of supper. He was fishing with three flies on a single leader. At the first cast his fly was taken by a good sized trout, that leaped from the water to grab it. He evidently got the leader on a "slack" before the line was tightened from the rod, as he snapped it off and went swimming aw8»y with the two flies and broken leader trailing behind. Next day the angler revisited the lake and as he was looking over the side of the boat he espied in ten or fifteen feet of water the big trout that had taken his leader the night before. A closer examination revealed that his troutship wa,s safely hitched to a dead branch of a tree, which had fallen into the water. In swimming about one of the two free hooks on the leader had caught in the branch and that ended the migrations of the tfoutj" sill firmly hooked by the fly he had" grabbed. Rowing ashore, the angler stripped and dove for his prize. He secured it and a piece of the bra,nch and today has the stuffed trout, with hook still in his jaw and the other hook imbed ded in the broken branch, mounted as a pisc&torical study and souvenir of the incident.—Albany Argus. BILL'S WIT. Bill Fletcher is a lineman for the Michigan Telephone company, and is known to be witty. He doesn't like to wear a hat an hot days, either. A kind-hearted old lady saw Bill, the other day, near Saline, digging -away bareheaded at a posthole. So she went into the house and got one of her hus band's old hats. "It's too bad you haven't got a hat take this one," said she and, not wish ing to offend- her, Bill accepted the proffer. When the job was completed he went to the door, and, thanking her, said that he could not keep the hat. "But you must keep it," she said. "You will bake your torains out of you don't wear Something over your head this hot weather." "Oh, no, I won't," said Bill. "I haven't got any brains. If I had I wouldn't be digging postholes." The Bottle at Ship Lauchet. Down to Charles II.'s time it was cus tomary to name and baptise a ship after she was launched—sometimes a week or two after. The old Tudor method used for men-of-war was still in use. Pepys's "Diary" shows that. The ship was safely got afloat, after which some high person age went on board with a special silver "standing cup" or "flagon" of wine, out of which he drank, naming the ship, ano pou.red a libation on the quarterdeck. THe cup was then generally given to the dock yard master shipwright as a memento. When did the present usage of naming and baptizing a ship before she is sent afloat come in? I trace the last explicit mention of the oil method to 1664, when iha Royal Katherine was launched (see Pcnvs). The first mention of smashing a bottle of wine on the bows of a British man-of-war that I have found is in a contemporary newspaper cutting of May. 17S0. describing the' christening of H. M. 3 Magnanime at Deptford, but nothing is hinted th^t It was then a new custom. —Notes and Queries. Revenge.

MINERS ARE SCARCE SO ARE TRAMMERS OX THE IRON RANGES. Increase In the Number of Men En Kitered in the Iron Mines This Winter Will be Fair—Result of Scarcity Will be That More Men Will lleconie Experienced Miners and Trammers. There will be a fair increase in the .•lumber of men engaged at the Minne sota iron mines the coming winter, but a scarcity of labor will limit the increase considerably. There is a marked scarcity of practical miners and trammers. A large number of such men could find employment at once on the Mesaba range and it is said that the Vermilion range mines, which have been short of men all sum mer, could furnish work for a large number in addition to the present number. One cf the results of the present activity iron mining will be that a large number cl green men will be come c:} erH ed miners and tram mers. Men l'.at are inexperienced but apt and iijuustricus are being worked in even at soihe expanse to the oper ators, and the Minnesota iron ranges, according to mining man, offer the bes*. o|i|o?'i unities for common labor of any part of the state. Common labor ers may, if they exhibit the rignt spirit, easily command the best wages going after having liad a little experience. Ir is said 'hat the Consolidated com pany will open no new mines on the Mesaba range this winter, though a re port has been published that it will. The company is said to expect to oper ate more extensively the coming win ter than last winter but the shortage of experienced men precludes any ex tensive increase in operations. The Hull and the Burt mines have been started up and the Rust mine will start up as soon as a new shaft and shaft house are built to replace the ones binned last summer. The shipping of ore from the Mesaba will cease about the 20th inst. The Missabe road will probably ship 200,000 tons this month and the Iron Range road expects to ship 300,000 tons dur ing the month. The output of the St. Louis county mines for this season is now in sight. It will be about 7,600,000 tons, providing the estimates for No vember are not far out of the way. These figures would indicate an in crease of about 1,460,000 tons over the shipments from Minnesota last year. The- plans for next season's ore move ment from Minnesota indicate that an increase in 1900 more than equal to that o£ this year is held in contemplation. Sl'IT AGAINST CHIEF HANSEN. John Mill toy of Iron River Claims Chief Kept Prisoner's Money. Summons was served on Chief of Police Hansen yesterday in a suit brought by John Malloy of Iron River, Wis., against the chief for $642.29, which it is alleged the chief took away from a prisoner and which has not been ac counted for. The complaint states that in May last John Williams forged several checks at Iron River, Wis., and Malloy bought the accounts against the forger. While trying to pass a forged check on M. S. Burrows, of this city, May 6. Williams was arrested, and it is claimed that at the time he was taken in custody he had $276.10 in his pos session, of which the chief is charged with keeping all but $83.81, which was turned over to the plaintiff. Malloy therefore wants to be awarded $192.21 actual damages $150 special damages %nd $300 punitory damages, making a total of $642.29. It is claimed, however, that Mr. Hansen has a receipt dated June 7, signed by Mr. Malloy and his attorney, stating that they have received the money in full and releasing the chief from further claim.
