THE treasury receipts for Aunust

in" the expenditures by $4,500,000.
Tiikkk is still time to get upa slreet
fair in Pluttsmouth. The latter part
of S?ptemb r would bo tho proper
time to hold it.
Tiik anti-expansionists are getting
little satisfaction out of the members
of the First reg:ment. Nea ly every
soldier who has expressed himself on
the subject is in favor of holding the
Philippines.
The fusionists of Lancaster county
tried to induco Lieutenant Colonel
Eager to allow his name to go on their
ticket for clerk of the district court,
but he could not see it that way. He
was not so eager for defeat as to go
into a thing of that kind.
The Nebraska City N--ws is evi
dently very anxious that Ptul Jeesen
should uot become a c-ndidate for
district judge from tne w y it keeps
p: inting denials that ii ; isaeandidate.
THE News has heve seen a denial
from Mr. Jes-en or anyone else in
authority to the eft', et, that he would
not bo a eiir.d d.i e.
The Journal, in its characteristic
manner, made a fool of itself by ring
ing in politics in writing up tho re
ception to the soldier boys. R. B.
Windham made a good, sensible
speech and did not say one word that
was out of the way If making the
statement that the American flag
would wave over the Philippiues until
taken down ia an honorable way is
politics, why, thoo Mr. Wiudham did
get politics mixed .ni.o his speech.

Statistics appear frequently in re
gard to the deve'.oudient of commerce
in Cuba, Potto Rico. the. Philippines
and Hawaii and in variably the exhibit
is that of growing trade and a local
expenditure f J ing f r below the lo

credit in aii of them, s lys the Globe
Democrat. In the Philippines this
favorable margin amounts to $1,800,
000. In Cuba, for the first six months
of the present year, the surplus
reached $1,4S0,021. Nor have the de
mands of humanity in Cub i been
stinted in the least Charities and
hospitals during the six months re
ceived $J93,SS1 and $88,944 was be
stowed upon the destitute. No le?
than $1,712,014 was spent iu v trious
forms of sanitation, a vital work
wholly neglected under Spanish rule.
Tho additional item of $42,205 tor
quarantine belongs to the health de
partment. Over $500,000 was spent
for the improvement of barracks and
military quarters, another sanitary
item; and over $250,000 was allowed
for tho betterment of forts, harbors
and public works. Ample appropria
tions were allotted to civil adminis
tration, embracing, among other
things, a modernized postal depart
ment. At the same time the expansion of
American commerce in all the islands
is remarkable. Tho total exports of
the United States, for the fiscal year
recently ended, to Cuba, Porto Rico,
Hawaii and the Philippines reached a
total of $31,011,190, double the aggre
gate of two years ago. Taking the
average of the past ten years exports
to Cuba have increased 50 per cent, to
Porto Rico 25 per cent, to Hawaii 50
percent and to the Philippines 200
per cent, and this without including
army supplies or relief contrbutions.
Imports from all the islands are in
creasing fast, though all, except Ha
waii, are more or less disturbed indus
trially. It would be easy, by turning
back to the corgressional record, to
find non-expansionist speeches assert
ing that these islands would cost the
United States hundred of millions a
year. Such prophets of evil are noted
for exaggeration.

I a lo!) Mohammed Balba usurped
i he 2rown of Granada in spite of the
superior claims of his elder brother,
Jussef. He was vzry unsuccessful in
his conduct of the war against the
Christians and was at length assassi
nated by poison absorbed through his
skin from a shirt. He entertained a
desperate dislike to the brother whom
he had injured and when he knew that
his own fate was sealed he sent an or
der to the governor of the prison in
which Jussef as . confined that he
should bo executed immediatelv.
When the order arrived Jussef was
playing chess with the chaplain of the
prison. With great difficulty Jussef
obtained a respite from the governor
permitting him to finish the pame.
Before it was ended, however, news
came that the usurper had died of the
poison. This cancelled the order of
execution and Ju-sef, instead of going
to the scaffold, mounted the throne.
Senator Depew says he believes that

Ten years ago Louis G. Gottman
went in debt to buy a farm of 125 acres
in Marion county, Missouri. He re
fused all attempts to sell him more
land, but carefully cultivated every
foot he had, except what he used for
pasture. He is now out of debt, has
built a $1,000 barn, and recently mado
a trip with his family to Europe. Ho
attributes his remarkable success to
utilizing to its fullest capacity what
he possessed, without trying to overdo
the thing.

California can boast of possessing

TELEPHONES IN HAWAII, .
There is one telephone to every
fifty-two inhabitants in the Hawaiian
islands, and one to every forty-one
persons in the principal island of Oahu;
and a Honolulu letter to the Chicago
Record makes it clear that in these
new possessions of ours the telephone
Is really a public "institution."
Isolated as the islands are, the ar
rival of a steamship from a foreign
land is of interest to almost every one.
The government maintains a lookout
station on Diamond Head, from which 1
approaching vessels can be sighted
iUe 3tI11 from twenty to forty miles

Centrar then not,fles h
offlce the port physiclan the boal of
Health, the custom house, the post-
office, the newspaper offices and a few
other persona who have a particular
interest la eaxlv information of this
character. Then the electric light
company is notified, and it gives twn
long whistles if the steamer Js from
niut-i iiu. una mree lr ii is rroni ant
other part of the world.
For two minutes after these whistles
are blown no telephone connections are
made, but the force at "central" keeps
repeating the name of the steamer and
Its location, as "Australia off Koko
rieau, or cnina on A aianae, so that
all any one needs to do is to go to the
nearest telephone, put the receiver to
his ear and learn what steamer it la
and where it is.
If the steamer brings any striking
piece of news of general interest "cen- j
tral" gives It to everybody who calls'
up for a connection. In this way th
destruction or tne Maine was known
all over the island within ten mlnuces
after the Zealandia. whteh brought the
news, was at the wbaif.
If an important personage dies, the
news U distributed in the saaie way.
and "central" can always b depended
on to give the hour and place of a
funeral as soon as the hour is fixed.
In New York and Chicago, if you want
to malve an inquiry, you ask a police
man. In Honolulu you ask "central."
The meat markets have a list of
their regular customers at "central,"
and at about C o'clock each evening
"central" calls them all up in order
nd takes their orders for the next
morning's breakfast.
TO BEAUTIFY DOORS.
It is seldom that the door of a room
Is made a decorative feature. Too
often it Is hidden behind a portiere
nn n rnppinr mnanmlAaa orranffp- t
ment when w- rnni.lpr th.t If r,lv th
door were well made and eklllfully fit j "-ed from them. Many believe them
ted it would stueesfully exclude all incurable. This is a n.istaKe. P. ..p. r
draught, and the addition of another ( treatment will cure them. Tabler'
screen would be quite unnecessary. Buckeye Pile Oimment is nn infallible
Since the fashion of hiding the door in cure. Price, .10c. in bottles, tutu s 7oe.
this way has been adopted tha archt- p. q. Fricke & Co.
trave has not been regarded as of any
Importance, and consequently the
modern door is, a3 a rule, badly pro
portioned and by no means well de
signed. During the periods from which we
take many of our present best ideas cf
decoration namely the Louis XIV..
XV. and XVI. doors were treated with
the utmost care and skill; not only
were they carved or painted, but thetr
locks and hinges were beautifully de
signed and finished so much so that
an old French lock or hinge is of value
as a work of art. This is as it should
be. The door should receive equally
as much attention as the fireplace oi
window. It need not be elaborately
carved, but It should be well designed
and furnished with appropriate lock
and hinges. Then, again, the door
should always be hung in such a man
ner that the part of the room in which
the occupant usually sits is screened,
and it should open into the room to
facilitate the entrance, and also give
the impression of hospitality.
The hall door should be more sub
stantially built than that of the room,
and looks best if plain In design and
solid in co'or. It shou' 1 have bold
architectural molrMngs. but no elab
orate decorative detail, and its lotk,
hinges and handle should be skillfully
wrought ln a suitable metal, such as
iron or bronze. In every casa the
metal work should be appropriate to
the door, as, for Instance, wrought iron
or bronze with oak, copper with ma
hogany and brass with walnut.
Hamiuorki.
Hammocks this year are both varied
and numerous ia design, and also,
which is pleasant news, very reason
able in price. Those of colored twine
are perhaps more pleasant and com
fortable for lying in than tho rougher
hemp, and just as strong. They arc
wider, less given to tipping and depos
iting their burden on the. grass or ver
anda floor, and better balanced than
formerly.
As there is nothing so conducive to
perfect comfort on a hot summer's
day than a pleasantly hung hammock,
no one should go to the country with
out one. In the shops they are show
ing tiny ones for babies, and many
doctors advocate letting the little ones
sleep In a properly hung hammock
during the warm nights, on the theory
that they are more healthful than over
heated cribs, with hair mattress and
feather pillows.
Tents are displayed of all kinds and
descriptions. To those in possession of
a large lawn or golf links tents placed
here and there are oases in a sun
baked stretch. Many swinging chairs
are fashioned somewhat like tents.and
arc considered quite a boon for grand- '
father or grandmother.
