Tug terms of the Cuban treaty will long stand as a monument to the diplo macy of the present administration. 1 At a recent election in Honduras .10.000 more votes were cast than the population called for. We thought Croker Was in England. Ik Kaiser Bill isn't just bit careful how h conduct that Venezuelan disa greement Uncle Sam will box his lueses for him, that he will. Pkople who contract patent medicine habits are liable to got the cocaine habit with it as cocaine is largely used in the soothers so widely advertised. If the Cuban treaty did nothing .else, its tendency to obviate the necessity ol an annual quarantine along the southern and eastern coast line would warrant its ratification. New York is to have a children's the atre with child actors and actresses, the perfonnances are to be given in the af ternoon, and the plays to oe arranged with especial reference to the artistic de mands of childhood. Sknators Penrose, Spooner, Gallinger, Piatt of New Yortt aud Plait of Connecti cut have been re-elected to the Senate, to the infinite satisfaction of their colleagues who recognize in them pillars of strength to the Republican party. Thk Democrats in Congress are hold ing aloof from all efforts to tdiape trust legislation. They have apparently heard a voice from seme of the Southern trusts, the cottonseed oil, the round cotton bale and similar corporations. What is claimed to be the oldest bib lical manuscript has recently been dis covered in Syria, and is now in Cairo. It is a copy of the Pentateuch, written in Samaritan characters on parchment and dates from the year 735 A. D. Notwithstanding the clamour with which the Democrats in Congress have shouted for anti-trust legislation, now that there is prospect of Bush they are obeying the mandates of corporate inter ests and are doing all they can to prevent legislation. The President is giving the ceuntry a magnificent illustration of genuine en ergy in the White House. He has con vinced Congress ol the neces:ty of anti trust legislation and the result promises to be prompt relief from the evils attend ing the existence of certain trusts. Speakino of the new Governor's ap pointments the Lancaster Intelligencer, a Democratic organ, says: "Judge Penny packer did the whole business. He thought the matter over with malice to wards none, and soundly concluded that be did not owe anybody anything, save that he owed the State good servants of the Republican persuasion, and men that bethought he could rely on tor good work. We take a great deal of stock in Pennypacker, who evidently knows what he is about, and whom nobody is leading around by the nose." In speaking of President Koosevelt'a chances for re-election, the New York Press says : "President Roosevelt, alng with bis inherent gifts and natural abil ities, has had also some strokes of rare good fortune. It was good fortune that gave him the opportunity in the Spanish war to exhibit the t-mper and character of wbich Americans are proud in their countrymen. It was good fortune that forced him against his will from the Gov ernorship of New York into the Vice Presidency. No other good for tuno in his life, however, is to be meas ured with the fabulous favor of Fate which arranged his climax of fortune that it might be capped at the supreme moment of hi-i career with the dislavor and the hatred of the political bossism from which the American people turn to President Roosevelt as men on a long journey turn eagerly from sinking and shifting bogs to smiling, green fields and meadows and from misty shadows to the open sunlight." That eminent Bjitish economist, Sir Robert Giffcn, has written to the London Times to aay that not the slightest reli ance is to be placed on Germany's assur ances that she does not intend to make territoral acquisitions in South America. Of the Venezuelan affair be say : "Ger man protestations that no territory Is de sired are worthless In the economic condition ot Germany territory is very much a desideratum if it is not actually desired, especially territory like that of Venezuela, where in spile of its situation at the equator there is, by reason ot the mountainous nature of country, much fertile land suitable for European settle ment, while there are ri'-h mining dis tricts calling for expert exploitation. Given a suitable opportunity. Germany has every motive to convert a temporary into a permanent occupation of such ter ritory, and the hostility of the United Stales, especially if Germany had Eng lan 1 for a partner, would not prevent the alto.npt to do so." The Days That Are N More. Editor Smith of the Punx'y Spirit talks like one who has lived through it all in speaking of the "good old days," long since passed out of fashion, at least in this latitude. It is pleasant to railed at inteivals upon the times wheu we were boys, and all the more so when the story is told iu a i entertaing manner like this: Ask any old citizen ot tbi community who is loyal to his own, and not inclined to go in quest of false gods, what a ere the real halcyon days the daya of deep and abiding joy and he will auswer prompt ly, "The "lays of flax-schutchings, barn raisings and log-rollings," It nevei oc curs to him that any of your modern de generates ever had or could have uy rational idea of genuine fun. The thing is atuid. How could they wheu they never even danced on a barn floe: at a corn huskiug? There was a comple:eness and fullneas of individual existence in those days that is not to be lound in this age of electric ity, labor-saving machinery and the di vision of labor. "The age i gono o'er when a man may in all things be all." When Uncle Ed Seelev and Dave Rey nolds and Sam Jones and George War nick were boys there was seme satisfac tion in living. Ever body amounted to something then, because everybody had some specialty iu which he was the whole thing. Eb Daily could beat any man in seven counties shaving shingles, Beu Yohe was the champion corn busker, and there never was a blacksmith who was such an all-round genius as Sam Jones never. Sam Sax ton could kick tho ceiling with both leet and Tom Anderson could ride a single small sawlog over a chute during a Hood and never wet his leet ! Every body was some sort of a hero then. Did you ever bear Wheeler Rudolph singing "Darby's Ram," or Tim Rsgan warbling "The Sailor Roy," or "HUP Roads whistle "The Mocking Bird," or Eli Fye let himself loose on "Tim Fin- nigan'a Wake?" Then hast thu never really lived. Then every little community bad it? Edison, its Fracis Wilson, its Emerson, its Longfellow, its Joe Jefferson, ita Her cules aud its Daniel Webstei; and was complete within itself. Everybody knew everybody else, and every good man was a king and evety bumpkin a brilliant humorist and wit. There were neither bores nor bored then, for each man had his place, and was essential.. It was the nature of all men in this crude, backwoods society 'o blossom Into song. How a company of young men on their way to or from a "frolic" er a "big meetiu," would uncork their enthusiasm and make the welkin ring with "Old Dan Tuckr," or "Nellie Gray," or some la re hned ballad I It was a matter of lungs purely and ol facility to commit rhymes. Aud what could have been more stren uous than a "hoe down" on bare floors, where the "Grand right and left" aud "Balance all," and "Swing your part ners," would echo lrom the hills a mile around and the thumping of the feet would every moment threaten to shake down the house. But bosoms heaved ith emotion then as now, and "soft eyes ooked love to eyes which spake again," and sentiment, though not so delicately wrought, was equally intense. But the true past departs not. Its vis ions still linger with us and its phantoms oft beguile the weary present. The steamers Philadelphia and Lucan ia had a wireless game of cbess recently in mid ocean and without even sighting each other. The Philadelphia's ail-American team won. Dn. Lorenz told the doctors of Vienna who welcomed him home the other day "that tor magnificence of charity, for good doctors.nurses ond hospitals Amer ica leads the world." That's a fact, Doo.

Favor Higher Tariff. New Castle, Pa., Jan. 24. Councils are considering the matter of making reprisals aeainst Industrial corpora tions which do not operate their local works, by raising the tax levied on them. The American Steel and Wire company ia one syndicate against which this action may especially be directed. The New Castle nail, wire and rod mills have been Idle practically ever since they were sold to the trust. The taxe3 here are very low on manufacturing plants. In ordpr to In duce the erection of manufacturing en terprises, but councils advocate putting up the tariff on those which never run. Lost a Scholarship For a Kisa. Oberlln, O., Jan. 2G. That coeduca tion Is not without its drawbacks Is shown by an affair that happened here at one of the boarding halls. A young man stulent had escorted one of the co-eds to an entertainment, and on re turning to the boarding hall asked per mission to kiss her goodnight. Of course she said nay, but he promptly kissed her twice.
