Washington, Dec. 28th, 1S96.
There is no more probability that
the independence of Cuba will be rec
ognized by the United States during
President Cleveland's administration
than there is of Grovcr Cleveland be
coming president of the Cuban repub
lic, and, unless McKmley is misrepre
sented by Republicans who are sup
posed to enjoy his confidence, the
present policy will be continued by
him until there is some decided change
in Cuba. The resolution for the in
dependence of Cuba which has been
reported to the Senate will, of course,
be made the basis of a lot of speeches
when Congress reassembles, but more
of them will be devoted to the claim
ot the admisistration, that the Presi
dent alone has the power to recognize
the independence of a nation, than to
Cuba or anything connected with the
unfortunate island. Whether a vote
on the resolution itself will be had be
fore the expiration of this Congress is
a matter of doubt, but not of much
importance, as it has already been
given out by the Republican leaders
of the House that the resolution will
not be allowed to come before that
body at all. The constitutional ques
tion involved in the claim of the ad
ministration is an important one, and
one upon which men who are regarded
as able lawyers differ regardless of
politics, and the debate upon it will
be in no sense partisan. There is
practically no precedent, though sev
eral have been cited as having a bear
ing upon the claim. And after all,
nothing short of a decision of the
United States Supreme Court will be
accepted as settling it.
Senator Morgan, of Alabama, has
never set up for a wit, but if he gets
off a few more flashes like his answer
to Senator Vest's inquiry as to the
meaning of that clause of the Presi
dent's message dealing with the Pa
cific Railroads', the title will be forced
upon him. Mr. Morgan was urging
action to protect the people of the
Pacific coast from those railroads, or
rather from the men who control them,
when Mr. Vest made his request.
Turning like a flash, the Alabama
Senator said with a depreciatory ges
ture : " Now m all Kgypt there was
only one man, and he was divinely
inspired, who could interpret the
dreams of Pharaoh. The Senator
ought not to ask me to interpret the
President's message. If any man is
capable of interpreting the message it
is the Senator from Missouri."
Among the members of the House
who did not go home to spend their
Christmas are a number of Republi
cans who were re-elected to the next
House, and who prefer to stand their
office-seeking constitutients off with
letters which do not commit them, in
stead of meeting tbem face to face and
being compelled to commit themselves.
The little postmasterships are espe
cially troublesome to the Representatives-elect
on account ot the numer
ous applicants for them. For instance,
one Representative from New Jersey
has received among other applications
for a single postoftice in his district,
one from each of three men who were
delegates to the convention that nom
inated him and who took active parts
in his campaign.
The Government isn't expecting
war with Spain, but if war comes it is
going to be as well prepared as possi
ble for it. A secret meeting of high
naval officers was held in AVashington
a few days ago for the purpose of pre
paring a complete program, offensive
and defensive, that might be carried
on by our present navy if there should
be war at short notice, and such a
program was prepared and is now in
the hands of Secretary Herbert.
It is as true to-day as it was when
written by Macaulay that " Where'er
ye shed the honey, the buzzing flies
will crowd." There is going to be
honey shed by the Republican tariff
bill, and the flies, in the shape of
those who are anticipating benefits
through protection are already crowd
ing Washington hotels, preparatory to
telling the Republican members of the
House Ways and Means Committee,
at the hearings which are to begin
next week, just how much interest
they want on their campaign contri
butions. Representative Barham, of Califor
nia, thinks the Pacific Railroad fund
ing bill, which is to be considered by
the House for the four days beginning
January 7th, can be defeated. He
said : If we can get enough time to
show the whole thing up, I am satis
fied that many votes will be changed.
The passage of the present bill is a
present of $100,000,000 to C. P.
Huntingdon and his associates. If it
becomes known that the United
States is going to treat these debtors
like it does all others there will be
plenty of buyers at the full value of
the property."
The Baldwin Locomotive Works at
Philadelphia have received orders for
13 locomotives for Japan. The com
pany also expects to build eight en
gines for China. These works are
very busy, having besides the above
orders 33 locomotives for various
roads in this country.
BASE BALL CHAT-
It has been about settled that the
Pittsburg team will doits spring train
ing at Mobile.
Pitcher Yerrick, formerly from
Berwick, who was with the Boston
team for a time last season, has been
signed by Rochester.
The Scranton Club has signed a
Texas League pitcher named William
Willncr.
Charley Nichols, of the Boston's,
has entered the ranks of cigar drum
mers. The Lancaster club needs a good,
hard hitting third baseman. Appli
cants should address Mr: II. II.
Hensel at once.
The Louisville club is reported to
be trying to secure second baseman
Connors from Chicago.
Pitcher Jerry Nops has turned in
his signed contract to the Baltimore
club.
Frank Ihvyer is a member of an
indoor base ball team in the local
league at Geneva, N. Y.
The Springfield club has about 100
stockholders and all of them are dead
heads at the games.
The Pittsburg club has re opened
negotations for outfielder McCreary,
of the Louisvilles.
Boston is still on a hunt for a
catcher and an outfielder.
Tony Mullane has been pitching
fourteen years, and yet his arm is as
good as ever it was.
According to Pittsburg advices the
excollegian, first baseman Goeckle,
may get a chance to don a Pittsburg
uniform. The Philadelphia Club
tried to secure Goeckle last season,
but the collegian declared he did not
want to become a professional. How
ever, last season he played first base
for Wilkesbarre, leading the Eastern
League in that position.
Pitcher Charlie Jordan requests us
to deny the statement going the
rounds to the effect that the Philadel
phia Club had transferred him to the
Athletics. He says the Philadelphia
Club has released him outright, and
that he is open for engagement. He
can be addressed at 60 South Pine
stieet, Hazleton, Pa.
Catarrh Cannot bo Cured
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the dis
ease. Catarrh is a blood or constitu
tional disease, and in order to cure it
you must take internal remedies.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally
and acts directly on the blood and
mucous surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is not a quack medicine. It was pre
scribed by one of the best physicians
in this country for years, and is a
regular prescription. It is composed
of the best tonics known, combined
with the best blood purifiers, acting
directly on the mucous surfaces. The
perfect combination of the two in
gredients is what produces such won

Hall's Family Pills are the best.
They called it eccentricity when
Millionaire John E. Dubois had a man
stand at the doors of the Methodist
and Presbyterian churches, in Du
Bois, on Sunday, and hand every one
who entered the building an envelope
in which he had placed 2octs. It was
his idea of making a subscription to
the church, for the envelopes were all
dropped into the collection baskets.
Possibly it was eccentricity but it was
of the kind that will always gladden
the ministerial heart and help church
work. You need not be ashamed
of being called such an eccentric.
The man who is anxious, and able
to work, though he may not be able
to secure it, is not a tramp. In every
community there are a few men who
are not working simply because it is
an absolute impossibility for them to
secure any, yet they are none the less
esteemed for their predicament. It is
the class of lazy loafers who would
rather stumble over a stick in their
path than go to the trouble of remov
ing it, that should be forced to know
St. Paul's injunction : "If any will
not work, neither shall he eat."
While Uncle Sam has very little to
be afraid of m the event of war with
Spain there are some things that are
causing him to scratch his head and
wonder how he is going to protect our
woefully defenceless extensive coast
line with nine boats that are calculated
for heavy fighting. We have plenty
scattered over the world to blow Spain
clear out of water, but should we be
come involved before they could be
called home it would take pretty large
shooting for the nine boats now ready
to ward off Spanish attack from East
port, Me., clear around to the mouth
of the Rio Grande.

The Christmas dinner to which fJen

It was the gift, Christmas present

ippeared.
Promptly at 0 o'clock the officers at
headquarters were the guests of the
Eighth cavalry officers nt Dr. Collins'
tent, except Cenernl Mill's, who had
business to detain him In- his quarters.
Without any reflection on the general,
it can lie said his absence was not re
jrnrded as an unmitigated affront.
Had he attended, his presence ns coin
aianding officer might have marred
the interpretation put upon Ir. Col

more take a drink without ejaculating
'how" than lie can draw his pay with
ut signing a pay account.
"How" was ladled out of a great
Ton pot, half the size of a country
wife's soap kettle, Willi quart cups.
And It wus a punch with the most pe

Everybody tackled It, however, unre
mittingly. The queries were many:
rt'lint Is It? And as stoup after stoup
was fearlessly tiikeu, the doctor being

'Christmas prairie punch" was dis
posed. Au Iron pot had been used,
for nothing less strong could possibly
aolil the mixture. The body of the
3uld was tea, boiled to the consistency
f lye and In alkali water, too and
nto this had been dumped a couple of
pounds of crisp, burnt brown sugur,
for the sake of a color. Next a quart
.nn of portable lemon sugar had been
idiled to give It flavor, and then two
gallons of alcohol taken froui the
veterinary surgeon's chest had been

Tli PATE Of TEIPLETS IN CHINA.
In the southern provinces of
China there is a superstition that if
triplets are born one of the three
children will eventually become a
roted rebel. In order to avoid that
direst of Chinese curses, a bad son, a
" wise man " is sent for in order to
decide which of the three children is
the destined black sheep. The three
infants having been conveyed into a
perfectly dark room, the " wise man"
takes three pieces of twine, each of a
different color, as white, red, and
black, and entering the room ties one
of these pieces of string round a wrist
of each baby. The one which, when
brought out into the light, is found to
have the red string on its wrist, is
drowned like a puppy. From "Chi
nese Superstitions" in Demoresfs
Magazine for January.
