witness said, American prisoners were

all over these islands, and that which
remains Is a crime against civilization.
It Is also a crime against the Filipino
people to keep up a state of war under

CHILD BOSSED 111E DIAMOND.
How a Seven-Year-Old Bor t'mplred
a Game Between Men
Plavera,
Out at the Y. M. C. A. grounds in
west Philadelphia recently two base
ball teams composed of grown men
some of them old enough, one would
think, to have more serious things
to do, were struggling for supremacy.
It was not a particularly- scicntiflo
game Indeed, it was often ludicrous,
and, the star performer wus the um
pire. He was little ".Toe" Craddoek,
scarcely larger than a three-cent
piece, and about knee-high to a grass
hopper. The little fellow is only
seven years old and looks younger,
but he had nil the gesture nnd man
ners of the professional umpire down
pat. Moreover, he knew all the in
tricate points of the game nnd gave
his decisions in a shrill, piping and
yet officially stern voice.
It was laughable, says the Phila
delphia Record, to see some of the
players, when a close decision would
be given, fly into a rage and hotly
argue with the midget umpire. In
their excitement hcy seemed to lose
sight of the humor of the situation,
lint, when the little fellow would ma
jestically order them otT the field, the
few spectators would roar with
laughter. The playeis themselves
didn't see anything funny in it until
the game was over and they had
a chance to think about it.
NOSE INDICATES CHARACTER. ;
i
Ho Not C'oniplnln If Yon Ilnve n nijt
One, for That's the Verj
Hnt Kind.
A large nope is always an unfailing
sign of a decided character, writes
Iilanclie W. Fischer, in an nrticle on
"Heading Character from the Face"
in l.ndies' Home Journal. "It belongs
to the man of action, quick to see and
to seize opportunity. A small nose
indicates a passive nature, one less
apt to act, although he may feel as
deeply. He will have ninny theories,
while the possessor of a large nose
will have deeds to show. Persons
with small noses arc most loving and
sympathizing, but their friendship is
not? the active kind.
A nose with the tip slightly tilted
is the sign of the heartless flirt. A
long nose shows dignity and repose.
A short nose, pugnacity and a love
of gayety. An arched nose one pro
jecting at the bridge shows thought.
A straight nose shows an inclination
toward serious subjects. A nose that
turns up slightly Indicates eloquence,
wit and imagination. If turned up
much it shows egotism and love of
luxury. A nose that slopes out direct
ly from the forehead, that shows no
indenting between the eyes, indicates
power. If the nose is indented deep
ly at the root the subject will be weak
and vacillating. A nose that turns
down signifies that the possessor is
miserly and sarcastic.
SIGN CAUSES HARD FEELING.
A Chicago CIstar-MaUcr Who Think.
He Has a Grievance Attains!
HI. Neighbor.
The business quiet of a South side
thoroughfare has been rudely shocked
because of an altercation that has
grown out of the display o signs on
the same building, relates the Chicago
Chronicle. The first floor is occupied
by a cigar manufacturer, who takes es
peclal pride in the merits of his goods
and resent any imputation that tne i
grade is not the best. For this reason
he has caused to be suspended above :
his door the following placard: j
f FINE CIGARS! I
; EVERY LKAP ITSEO WITHIN : ,
: COMES D1RKCT KKUMri BA. :
His fellow tenant who occupies the
floor above took umbrage at the other
man's self-laudation and posted the
following announcement In letters eas
ily descried a block away:
: OUR FARM PRODUCTS. INCLUD- :
! INC1 CABBAGE, DON'T COME :
! FROM CUBA. BUT FROM :
: WISCONSIN AND :
: IOWA. :
A suit in the courts is threatened by
the cigar man unless the objectionable
sign on the floor above is removed or
amended.
INDUSTRY OF A TINY BIRD.
Its Enormous Appetite Keeps the
Little Wren Busy During Its
Waking- Hours.
One of the most industrious of 1
birds is the wren. Its industry is ,
probably due to its appetite, which '
is seemingly insatiable. It seems to
be ulwuys hungry and is ever on the ,
alert for means to satisfy the crav-
lugs of its appetite.
This is the season of the year when
the city man returns from his two
weeks' outing in the woods, primed
up with more accumulated knowl
edge than the' good old "man with '
the hoc" has been able to acquire in
n lifetime. One of him, who has been
spending the vacation time in Vir--ginia,
furnishes details as to the
abnormal cravings for food displayed
by young wrens. He found a nest
and took up a position where he
could watch at his leisure. The moth
er wren made 110 trips to the nest
within four hours and a half, and
this was the bill of fare which the
three baby birds consumed:
Twenty green caterpillars, 16 May
flips, 29 uiiii'Mitified insects, 11
worms, two bugs, ten grasshoppers,
seven spiders nnd a chrysalis or two.

DINED ON GOLDFISH.
The Customer Got What He Thought

Thing- for the Walter.
The gentleman who, in nautical
phrase, seemed to be "three sheets
in the wind, with the mainsail flap
ping," careened against the window
of the all-night restaurant, says the
St. Louis Star. "I wan' som'thin'
feat," said the bibulous one. ".Som'
thin dif'rent." He went Into the res
taurant and huskily Inquired of the
waiter what there was in the place lu
ishnpe of food.
"Kggs, steak, cold beef, any kind
of pie. Whafll you have?" rattled
the waiter.
The bibulous one leaned his head
on the nearest tabic nnd wept. "Thas
jes what nil uz.er waishers said," he,
sobbed. "I don' wansh eggs, steash
t r col' beef. Wansh sunshin di Trent."
"Sorry, sir," suid the waiter. "What
particular think different would you
like to have? Perhaps we can send
out and get it for you."
"Wansh flf cents' worth fried
polar bear."
"Sorry," nain replied the waiter.
"A lot of Kxkiinos were in here this
evening, and they ate up the last
piece of polar bear meat we had. We
can send up to t Tip park and have the
polar bear in the zoo killed for you,
hilt we couldn't get the meat, back
here for three or four hours."
"Too lontf, too long," moaned the
inebriated individual, "no us-h."
He arose and walked unsteadily
out of the restaurant, but paused nt
the door to look back reproachfully
nt the waiter. Then e spied the
tank of goldfish that stood in the
restaurant window. His face bright
ened up and he returned to the table
again.
"I wanst golsh fish," said the bibu
lous one. "Fry fresh golsh fish. Like

mosher user to mashe. Wan' kech

"Couldn't do that, sir," said the
waiter. "The goldfish are a window
ornament."
"Don't care whash golsh flsh are.
Want 'em. Mush have 'em frish."
"Can't serve them, sir," said the
waiter.
"Ah, get out," pursued the bibulous
customer. "I got plentshee money.
Ain ten dollars 'nuflf for ole golsh
flsh? Here's y' ten dollars. Gimme
hook en' line."
The waiter decided that ten dollars
was a pretty good return for the gold
fish, so he accepted the money eager
ly, and went back of the counter and
hunted up a black thread and a bent
pin.
The strnnger insisted on using his
cane for a fishing pole, and so tha
black thread was tied to one end of
the cane, the bent pin was baited
with a crumb of bread and the cus
tomer began fishing. He fished for
half an hour without getting so much
as a bite. lie began to revile the
goldfish and the restaurant and the
waiter, and threatened to break the
tank with his cane
The waiter engaged his attention
for awhile by selecting some more
suitable bait, and while the customer
was doing this the waiter reached
down in the water and caught a gold
fish with his hand and put it on a
plate behind the counter.
Then when the customer resumed
fishing the waiter yelled: "You've
got a bite; pull!" and when the cus
tomer yanked his pole up the whiter
dropped the fish by the side of the
tank.
"Y'ou got him, you got him!" yelled
the waiter, "but he dropped off the
hook. Here he is."
The customer was greatly plensed,
and went back to get some more of
the magic bait, while the waiter cap
tured another fish. In this way all
four of the fish in the tank were
caught by the angler and sent back
to the cook, who simply put them in
a pan of water, for the waiter had
been careful to see that they suffered
no injury and had kept tliein alive
in a bucket of water, into which he
had put them as fast as they had
been taken from the tank.
The cook fried some whitefish thnt
had been in the Ice chest, and the
waiter deftly spread some gold foil
taken off plug tobacco on the sides
of the fish. He served it in neat
style, deftly 4removing the gold foil
with a knife. The bibulous custom
er put the gold foil in his pocket as
a trophy of his capture and ate the
flsh with great relish.
He gave the waiter a dollar and dis
appeared In fine spirits down the
street. After he was out of sight the
cook and the waiter returned the
goldfish to the tank.

to succeed Roberts.
rUe of Con.au.ht. Kin.'. Brother,
Will Become Commander-la.
Chief of British Army.
There have been rumors for some
time that Lord Roberts had had all
lie wanted of the office of commander-in-chief
of the British army, but no
definite statement has been made on
the subject.
From one of the half-dozen men
who should be able to speak authori
tatively on the subject, it Is learned
that the rumor Is not only correct.,
but that the date set by Lord Rob
erts Is April, and that the king's only
remnlning brother, the duke of Con
naught, will be the successor of the

hero of Kandahar in time to cut a
big figure at the coronation. The
late Queen Victoria could see no
reason why the army should not re
main in the family, anil was most
anxious that the duke of Con nn ught
should succeed the aged duke of Cain
bridge when public sentiment de
manded the retirement of the lat
ter. When her plans were defeated and
the appointment of Lord Wolseley be
came necessary, she contented her
self with the thought that at last her
son could succeed Lord Wolseley. Rut
Lord Roberts' capture of Cronje, nnd
the resulting wave of popular en
thusiasm, and the equally strong con
viction that the war otlice must be
reformed again, defeated the queen's
wishes, and Lord Roberts was made
commnnder-in-chief.
Rut the abrupt removal of Gen. Rul
lcr by Lord Roberts caused a revo
lution in feeling, and for the first
time in his life the beloved "Robs"
heard hisses mingled with the cheers
sent up in his honor whenever he ap
peared in public.
That was a bitter experience for a
man so fond of popularity, and is
said to be one of the causes of his
intention to resign. Another is his
discovery that he is quite unable to
cut the red tape that is bound so
tightly around the war office by its
civilian force.
. And so at last the duke of Con
naught is to have his long-looked-for
chance. He is a clever, kindly and
popular man, who has the reputation
of being a really good soldier, quite
aside from his royal prestige. Then,
beside, it would be quite beneath his
dignity to go pottering about with re
forms in the war office.
Things could go on peaceably in
the good old way, and the secretary
of war could manage matters In any
way he chose, without interference
from the military end of the office.
The duke's personal popularity is
thought to be great enough to over
come any popular feeling that a more
brilliant, energetic and forceful man
should be placed at the head of the
army.

Americanization of mexico.
Country llleh In M.or War. Almost
Completely Healeeted tatll
Recent Year..
It Is strange that Mexico was not
largely Americanized long ago, says
the Philadelphia Rulk-tln. Here is a
country which stands in the very
front rank In the matter of mineral
resources. In her soil can be found
In abundance silver, gold, copper,
Iron, coal, nnd, Indeed, practically
every desirable mineral that can be
found In the United States. Mexico
has a population of about 13,noo,(mn,
more than that of the Philippines,
Hawaii, Guam, Porto Rico and Cuba
combined; her political Institutions
are, nominally at least, much like
our own; person and property are
reasonably secure within her borders
and her people are steadily Increas
ing in intelligence.
Y'et this inviting field, which lies
at our very doors, was almost com
pletely neglected for years. Ye have
been of late expending a vast amount
of money in the hope of tranquilliz
ing and developing a group of islands,
with a scinl-civilizcd population, on
the other side of the globe. Mexican
exports nnd Imports amount to as
mueh in one year as the exports and
imports of the Philippines do in
seven.
It is gratifying to note that there
is now a disposition on this side of
the border to make up for this neg
lect. The more American cnpital
there is invested in Mexico the closer
1
the two republicans will be drawn to
gether. Whether this mny result ulti
mately in political annexation is a
problem for the future to solve, but
it can hardly fail to make for the
prosperity and advancement of both
nations.
MAN'S WILL WAS TATTOOED.
Story of a Mexican Miser Who Di
vided HI. Wealth In a Sln-
Kular Manner.
Terhaps it was not parsimony, as
his relatives alleged, that led a
Mexican miser who recently died to
tattoo his last will and testament
upon his body. They allege that tho
decedent, named Moreche, in order
to save the cost of pen, ink and pa
per, imprinted his will indelibly upon
his body with some red pigment.
When the old miser died his heirs
protested against the burial of the
body and petitioned the court to
have the remarkable "human docu
ment" admitted to probate. It was
a knotty problem, but the count de
cided that a copy should be made of
the tattooed will, and that the copy
should have the fU effect of an orig
inal will. After the copy had been
.made the old miser was buried by
his legatees, the original will being
"filed for reference," as it were.
This ease is another Instance ot
tha imaginations of authors being
realized in fact. In one of Rider
Haggard's stories the plot hinges
upon the existence of just such a tat-
tooed will, only in the case of Rider
Haggard's man the will was tattooed
on his back because he was ship
wrecked and there were no pens, ink
or paper handy for the drawing up
of the "last will and testament." In
the case of the Mexican miser tha
tattooed will could be read easily,
and the copy of it was attested by
four witnesses before being admitted
to probate.
