When John Casey, former resident of Milwaukee, but fur a number of v „ \ears n wandering Will \uw He * laborer, says the , Erununiiral. , ' Sentinel, was in formed that there was a cn:h credit of SIO,OOO waiting for him in the hand* of the Milwaukee probate judge he re marked: "It's rather sudden, but 1 guest) I know enough now to hold onto money wlieu I get it." This would im ply that Mr. Casey has at some time in his career as a bridge carpenter learned a lesson. It tells a sto»y of money that lie did not "hold .•into." Jt speaks of many days if hard work following one another in rapid succes sion. and they, in turn, giving place to other days when there was no work ami no money, because the money had been spent —perhaps unwisely —as it. was received. Km Mr. Casey need n> t feel 1 r.esoite. With his SIO,OOO in bank he can walk down the streets and find other men who did not "told onto" their money. Some "112 them managed to save a part oft heir earnings, while others saved nothing. But. every man of them all let goof money that he afterward regretted spending, even when he felt at the time it was going that he was getting its worth in re turn. If it is a fact that Mr. Casey has learned "how to hold onto" his money he must have learned how to get along without many thinif< that make life really worth li\ing. It would be bet ter if he would determine to spend ju diciously, having invested his funds to the best advantage, continuing to work meanwhile to increase his store. Above all things, he should buy those things which a normal, intelligent man requires to fill out his days with profit. A child of the city once upon a time was sent into the country by well-in- TW #- . „v tentioned persons lli«* C mr H l oii««-n( says the New York Needed. Post, but she did not appreciate rural delights, and soon ret timed to her nal ive element of brick and flagging. I'eing questioned one day concerning her discontent while in the country, she cried out: "Why, they don't even get their milk out of nice, clean cans; they squeeze it out of nn old cow." They may still have to "'squeeze it out of an old cow," but tl.e manner of the squeezing is presently to be more in keeping with urban ideas of progress. Or, perhaps it is. Men have long been at work on schemes for milking cows by process instead > 112 by land, but their efforts have not hith erto been crowned with any great treasure of success. A man in Oska loosa. la., has now, however, devised something which is expected to fill the bill. A flexible ttibe is connected at one end with the can and at the other with the udder of ihe cow by means of four teat cups. A person with an operating suction pump does the rest, it is all very sinipie. and the picture of the ap paratus looks all right, in the pic ture there is a cow who has a cairn and placid expression on her face. This leads one to believe that the inventor consulted Ihe cow before he put for ward his invention, if he did, it may be that no further news of a sensa tional character will come from Oska loosa. JJut if the picture is mislead ing. and the cow is yet to be heard from.it. would seem unwise to pass judgment on the invention in the meantime. Zeal in the prevention of cruelty to animals is commendable, but some times it gets ■ ue into a ridiculous pre dicament. Ins la nee: A kind old lady stay ing at a New York hotel called a cab. and the driver drew up Jo the door and gave a jerk to free his reins frcro the horse's tail. Now the horse was old and had lost what hair his tail naturally wore, and the driver had re placed it with nn artificial switch skil fully tied on. The jerk on the reins pulled the tail off. and the old lady shrieked in horror at such an exhibi tion of what she supposed was cruelty, and then summi IH d a policeman to ar rest the inhuman brute. When siie was told what had happened she ad justed her false front, which had got awry in her excitement, and called an other cab, declaring that she would not ride behind a horse that wore an other horse's hair where i.ia own ought to giuw. TELLING THE TRUTH. Republican Administration Making l in ts It citardiiiK Philippine* Known to the People. I Democratic crit.cs of the adminis tration cannot complain that they have in any way been hindered in their search for facts to support their Philippine policy. Having first com mitted themselves to the theory that all the Filipinos are enlightened pa triots, whose noble aspirations the administration has brutally tharted, it then occurred to them that they ought to have some facts to justify this theory. They have been permitted to rake the nation with a tine-tooth comb. They have heard tales of discharged (soldierswith personal grievances,and of sentimental touristswhosedelicate nerves could not endure the strug gle of civilization against barbarism. They have discovered that possibly in some eases the nation's agents in the Philippines have been provoked beyond endurance by its treacherous and bloodthirsty foes, and have met their savagery with savagery. They have also discovered that on the whole never in theworld'shistoryhas the irrepressible conflict between barbarism and civilization been con ducted with greater patience and hu manity on the part of the forces of civilization than by our army in the Philippines. The critics of their own country, the faultfinders with their kinsmen, have had their day in court, says the Chicago Inter-Ocean. They have pre sented their evidence, and argued upon it to the jury with every pos sible device of misrepresentation and appeal to prejudice. The inci dental abuses that they have trum peted so loudly the administration had moved to correct before their correction was even formally asked. If any American officer has over stepped tli< limits set upon warfare against the most savage and implacable foes, he will be punished. The facts will be ascertained, and the I'liited-States, as it ever has. will do justice alike to its own sons and to • barbarians who know not the meaning of the word. The democratic assault upon the army has been useful in disclosing the character of the people with whom it has to deal in the Philip pines. It litis proved lliiit while a very few Kilipinos may be called civ ilized. and that great numbers are simply barbarians, probably* the ma jority are in that transition stage where men are most difficult to deal with. Having some of the mental trails of civilized men, their morals are still those of the barbarian, anil under pressure of any struggle they constantly tend to relapse into sav agery. They* have as yet taken from civilization little but its weapons, mental and physical, and have for it no moral attachment. Yet these are the people whom the democrtaic senators still insist ought to be given absolute indepen dence, and whom this nation should leave to their own devices by seut ling out of the Philippines. The ab surdity of such a conclusion from such facts is evident to the feeblest intelligence. The American people will never accept that conclusion. They will never confess that thev are weaker than their sires. They* will no more yield to savagery and barbarism in the Philippines than their fathers yielded to them on this continent. The administration was not afraid of the truth about the Philippines, because its leaders understood that, with till allowance for individual er ror, the American people's acts in the Philippines must be right be cause their desires arc right. And the truth has justified the adminis tration's confidence in itself, in the army, and in the people of which the army is a part. The democratic critics have been given all the rope they demanded, and are now hang ing themselves There will be no scuttling from the Philippines, be cause we are rightfully there, and our deeds as a wl.ole have been righteous. American Soldiers MKIIRIIFII. The most unfortunate of the discussion growing out of the revela tions of the alleged cruelties in the prosecution of the war in the Philip pines is the disposition of many speakers and writers, both for the administration and for tl.e army, to make light of "watei cures" and kin dred tortures. The true friend, not only of the administration and of the army but of the good name of American people, will avoid this at titude and will endeavor to prove the allegations either to be unfounded or not in any way representative of the bearing of American soldiers as a body. W.e must not, cannot, be lieve that in an attempt to Ameri canize the Filipinos our soldier boys themselves have been Makyized.

The law was passed and remained in operation until, according to its terms, it expired through due notice ! from the Porto Uieans that they were j prepared and able to defray the ex penses of their government by local ' taxation. And the Porto liicans did not suffer because of the tariff. On j j the contrary, they have been steadily growing in prosperity since they were freed from Spanish rule. That, too, | though a devastat ing hurricane visited their inland and caused a great loss, of which a large part fell upon those least able to bear it. Late advices from Porto Tlieo tell of a large and steadily growing demand , for good clothes of American manufac- \ liiii-. The people of the island areeast- j ing < ff 1 he comparatively primitive rai- j ment that they wore under Spanish ' rule, and clothing themselves in good American style. And in a tropical | country the people do not begin to [ spend money for more and better 1 clothes than necessity demands until they have an abundance of it. Of course, savs the Albany Jour nal. the persons who were abusingthe government and expressing a great ; deal of sympathy of the crocodile j variety for the Porto Picans when it | was decided to make their products ' subject to a tariff, are saying nothing about the condition of Porto Rico now. They are howling for "justice for Cuba." and putting forth copious dissertations on what the I'nited States "owes" to the island, regardless i of its own interest s. Two years hence.

Porto liieo has not been say ingmueh, i 'out has been doing a great deal. The imports from the West Indian terri-j tory are three times'as great as they I were before 1si)8, and the exports to the island live times as great. There j has never been a vestige of discontent | with American rule, nor has there been , a whisper that the Americans have j conducted themselves either with dis honesty or cruelty. Chief Leadley, of . the record division of the civil service commission, reports that the Porto ! Hicans who took the examination were 1 an orderly, well-behaved, and intelli- j gent set of young men who passed their examinations as creditably asdid j the American applicants. Their knowl- 1 edge if American geography, which was expected to be deficient, was ex- i cellent. Many of them knew Knglish perfectly. N'either Mr. Atkinson nor Senator Hoar can "point with pride"; to the horrors of "imperialism" as demonstrated in Porto liieo. The rea- j son that American suzerainty has been 1 such an immense success, says the Chi- ( eago Tribune, is that peace has pre- , vailed in the island since the Stars and ! Stripes were hoisted there. When the j army shall have finally and definitely established peace in the Philippines, in j •spite of the fire in the rear, it is fairto ; assume that the same prosperity and , content now observable in the West i Indian island will spread over the Pa-; eifie archipelago. The anti-imperial- J ists must realize that whether we; abandon the islatuTs eventually•. orcon- ! tinue in them, peace is now the first i desideratum. In the first alternative. < the United States will not leave the 1 archipelago in the face of an enemy's fire. Hence the longer the I'ilipinos are encouraged in resistance, and the ; war thereby prolonged, the worse off , they are. In the second alternative.! the longer thev are urged on in what must inevitably prove a losing fight, j the more distant are their days of peace and plenty. CURRENT COMMENT.

Jlazleton Fa., May 10. —The anthra cite mini' workers in convention late yesterday afternoon decided to con tinue tlit* strike of the 145,000 men against the mine workers anil to fight it out to the bitter enil. The matter of calling out the engineers, firemen and pump runners will be decided by the delegates to-day.

They i have saved their money and are con sidered to be in better shape to-day for a tight than they were in the great strike of 1000. The operators I are on record as being unalterably opposed to granting the men any eon cessions and they have personally in formed the mine workers' leaders of | that fact. President Mitchell's advice to the I miners was peace and he gave it to them in the plainest and most force ful of language. W'ilkesbarre, Pa., 'May 16.—Idle i miners and laborers thronged the streets of this city and adjoining | towns yesterday anxiously wait- I ! ing news from the Ha/.elton conven- j tion. When the word finally came last evening that the representatives of the underground workers had voted to continue the strike the men dispersed to their homes, many of | them wearing a look of anxiety, if not actual distress. They knew that the last hope was gone and that prob ably a long period of idleness was be fore them. Ha/.leton. Pa., May 17. —The an- ! thracite mine workers in convention j yesterday, in order to win their j strike unanimously, decided upon a i plan that if carried into successful j operation, would practically tie up ! the industries of the country, para- | ly/.e business and inconvenience the j people throughout the United States, j It is their desire that a special na- j tional convention of the I'nited Mine j | Workers of America be called as soon j as practicable for the purpose of en | deavoring to have all the bituminous j mine workers, both organized and un ! organized, involved in the anthracite J | miners' struggle.

Gay nor and ('apt. W. I). Greene, who for ! feited their bail at Savannah early in March and fled to Canada, were ! placed under arrest by officers con nected with the I'nited States secret service and Chief Carpenter, of the Montreal detective force, yesterday. The arrests were made on warrants issued in Montreal, Chief Wilkie's men assisting the Candian officers lo make the arrests. The men were hurried on board a swift little tug. which had been kept in waiting at the wharf. Ten minutes after Greene and Gaynor were safely on board, the I boat steamed out into the river and started toward Montreal. The of ficers moved so quickly that neither ■ of the prisoners were given an oppor tunity to consult counsel. AVhen notified of her husband's ar rest. Mrs. Gaynor at once consulted Mr. Thaehereau, her husband's attor ney. A tug was chartered and an attempt was made to overtake the detectives' boat, the Spray, one of the swiftest tugs on the St. Lawrence, and the pursuit was abandoned. On returning to the city it was de cided to charter a special train and attempt to head oft! the Spray at some point between this city and Mont real. Montreal. May 16.—The pursuit of the lug Spray by the Quebec authori ties is probably due a misunderstand ing of the situation, owing to the quick arrest there. The provincial police at Quebec evidently think Gay nor and Green were kidnapped bj American officers. 111 M Prayers < oulilii't Save I!er.

When ISO miles j south of Cape Ilatteras the ship ran; into a terrific rain and electrical storm. To windward were seen seven waterspouts forming and rushing to ward the ship. Although it was es timated they were half a mile off, the roar was plainly audible. Six of the spouts failed to form, and their columns broke and fell into the sea. Hut the remaining spout gathered force and volume and rushed in its spiral course toward the Hestia. Capt. xerguson ordered the course changed, but that seemed to draw the rushing liquid pillar more toward the ship. Capt Fergu son then ordered every man off the deck. The ship quivered as the huge col umn of water struck it. The spout crossed the deck between the house amidship and the cabin, in a diag onal streak. It tore the canvas hatch coverings away, but, beyond the quivering of the steamer under the great weight there was no serious damage. A "Criminal" ,lla»<iiterade.
