Tun anti-expansionists are getting

The fiibionists of Lancaster county
tried to induco Lieutenant Colonel

Tiik Journal, in its characteristic
manner, made a fool of itsolf by ring

Windham made a good, sensible
speech and did not say one word that

Statistics appear frequently in re
gard to the development of commerce
in Cuba, Porto Kico. the Philippines
and Hawaii and invariably the exhibit
is that of growing trade and a loca
expenditure .:l! ing far below the lo
cal revenue. Heyoud the cost, of
maintaining its ami., in the islands
the United States finds a surplus to its
credit in all of them, says 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 surp'u-i
reached $1,480,021. Nor have the de
mands of humanity in Cub been
stinted in the least. Charities and
hospitals during thn six months re
ceived $93,881 and $88,944 was be
stowed upon the destitute. No lees
than $1,712,014 was spent in various
forms of sanitation, a vital work
wholly neglected under SpaDish rule
Tho additional item of $42,205 tor
quarantine belongs to the health de
partment. Over $300,000 was spent
f;r the improvement of barracks and
military quarters, another sanitary
item; and over $250,000 was allowed
for the 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 tho 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 $31,011,196, 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 Kico 25 per cent, to Hawaii 50
per cent 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 congressional 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.

la 1395 Mohammed Balba usurped
the crown of Granada in 8pite of the
superior claini9 of his elder brother,
Jusacf. He was very unsuccessful In
his conduct of the war against the
Christiana and was at length assassi
nated by poison absorbed through bis
skin from a shirt. He entertained a
desperate dislike to the brother whom
he had injured and when he knew that
hi9 own fate was sealed he Bent an or
der to the governor of the prison in
which Jussef as confined that he
should be executed immediately.
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 game.
Before it wan ended, however, news
came that the usurper had died of the
poison. This cancelled the order of
execution and Ju-sef, instead of goin?
to the sou (Told, mounted tho throne.

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 made
a trip with his family to Europe. He
attributes his remarkable success to
utilizing to its fullest capacity what
he possessed, without trying to overdo
the thing.

HAWAII.
There
is one telenhona to vr
flfty-two Inhabitants Id the Hawaiian
Islands, and one to every forty-ooe
persons in the principal Inland of Oahu;
and a Honolulu letter to the Chloago
Record makes it clear that In these
new poeeesalona 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 almoat every one.
The government maintain a lookout
station on Diamond Head, from which
approaching vesaels can be sighted
while still from twenty to forty miles
distant As soon aa a steamer U
sighted "central" Is notified.
"Central" then not!fls th niit
offlce the port Dhy3,c,an th. boar, of
health, the custom house, the post-
omce, me newspaper omces and a few
other persons -who have a particular
interest In mrlr information of thU
character. Then the electric light
company Is notified, and It gives two
long whistles If the steamer is from
America, and three if it Is from any
other part of the world.
For two minutes after these whlstlei
are blown no telpnhnn. .Anr,.tun.
made, but the force at "central" keep
repeatlng the name of the steamer and
Its location, as "Australia off Koko
Head," or "China off Walanae," so that
all any one needs to do Is to go to the
nearest telephone, put the receiver t
his ear and learn what steamer l Is
and where It is. -
If the steamer brjngs any striking
piece of news of general interest "cen
tral" gives it to everybody who calls
up for a connection. In this way the
destruction of the Maine was known
all over the island within ten minutes
after the Zealandia, whteh brought the
news, was at the .what f.
If an important personage die, the
newg Is distributed in the tanut way.
and "central" can always be 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 make an Inquiry, you aak a police
man. In Honolulu you ask "central."
The meat markets have a list of
their regular customers at "central,"
and at about 6 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
an altogether meaningless arrange-
ment when we consider that if only the
door -were well made and skillfully fit
ted it would sucessfully exclude all
draught, and the addition of another
screen would be quite unnecessary.
Since the fashion of hiding the door in
this way has been adopted the archi
trave has not been regarded as of any
importance, and consequently tho
modern door is, as a rule, badly pro
portioned and by no means well de
signed.
During the periods from which we
take man' of our present best ideas of
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 their
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
TELEPHONES IN
and hinges. Then, again, the doorjcroup it has no equal," wriie- II-
should always be nung in sucn 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 color. It shou'l have bold
architectural molrMngs, but no elab
orate decorative detail, and Its lock,
hinges and handle should be skillfully
wrought in a suitable metal, such as
Iron or bronze. In every case the
metal work should be appropriate to
the door, as, for Instance, wrought Iron
or bronte with oak, copper with ma
hogany and brass with walnut.
Hammocks.
Hammocks this year are both varied
and numerous in design, and also.
which is pleasant news, very reason
able in price. Those of colored twin
are perhaps more pleasant and com
fortable for lying in than the- rougher
hemp, and Just as strong. They are
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
are considered quite a boon for grand
father or grandmother.

In the matter of inducing sleep much
depends upon the individual. One per
son will find a hearty meal before bed
time conducive to sleep, while another
thinks that an empty stomach is the
best plan in order to obtain sleep. A
cold bath, rubbing the hands in cold
water, a wet towel applied to the tem
ples are all helpful to a good night's

Worn Bank Notes.
Every year the treasurer of the
United States Is called upon to redeem
millions of bank notes which have be
come badly worn as a result of con
stant handling. During the fiscal year
recently closed Treasurer Roberts gave
new bills in exchange for old to the
amount of 1290,000,000, breaking the
record of the last six years. This Is
an indication that with the return of
prosperity money Is In free circulation. , l

Mining Is not without it.; romaiifcs.
Like many other pursuits In which
great risks are taken to win all or
nothing, the failures often lea.l lo sen
sational consequences. In Ilallarat,
for Instance, a ruliiPd gold miner com
mitted suicide In a manner almost
dramatic, according to the records of
that mining district. During the time
of the gold rush a certain deserted
claim was held sacred for years and
the tool3 strewn about the windlass
were left to rust away untouched. A
party of 'varsity men, old school fel-
lows and of gentle birth, had sunk
their shaft there and worked without
success until their money was spent.
ue evening one of them at work at
the bottom of the shaft shouted: "Haul
Up, hoys; the time Is come at last!"
They hauled up, and when the end of
the cable came to the top they found
their comrade's lifeless body hanging
from the chain. He had detached the
bucket, tied a noose about his neck,
fastened the noose to the chain, and
I was handed by his dearest friends. The
party had been much liked and re
spected by the other miners, who
would readily have subscribed a thou
sand ounces of gold dust to give them
a fresh start, but ere the dawn of the
next day the whole party had disap
peared, leaving their claim In tho
ennie state as it lay at the time of the
tragedy.

There is only one cure for Contagious
Blood Poison the disease which has
completely baffled the doctors. They
are totally unable to cure it, and direct
their efforts toward bottling the poison
up in the blood and concealing it from
view. S. S. S. cures the disease posi
tively and permanently by forcing out
every trace of the taint.
