President McKinley, roado the fol lowing statement, relative to the mustering out of the soldiers. "The wholn trouble secrus to be that the soldiers and the people be lieve that the war is over, whereas only a praca protocol has been sign ed. This country is about to sond a couimiesion ol trairient gentlemen to meet a commission from Spain to nnnlJy determine the terms of peace. The coniuiisaiom-rs for this country would be discredited from the first if they went foith without the pal pable military and naval strength of th ir country back of them to enforce any demands which circum.-dances might rtqu re them to make. "The w hole world knows tLat wm have a ppleLdid navy and also that v.-e have a large army. It would not do to disband onr army at this time. It must not be done. However, inas much as the woild knows that we ern raise a large army on short i.otiee, it will do no harm to let the world know that we can rb readily rtduce our army and seud our men bac to tLe.'r avocations cf peace. But it is not now the proper time to muster out all of cur volunteers Ou the contrary, I have dr cited to muster ont one half of our volunteers, in txact ratio for all of the States. Iova mustered four regiments. We Lave crdercd the mustt.r cut c f the Fiftieth- and F:fty-second Iowa and the bstteries. But the Forty-ninth and the Fifty first Regiments must remain in the service for the present and for some time to come. Half cf the soldiers from each S'afe will be mustered out. Thst is fair to all of the States, and it, is fair to all of the voluuteers This matter lirs received c-trefnl consideration. The conclusion reached mnso stand. I have to day been requested to mus ter out more men for Arkansas, Pcrinsjlvania r.tid Illinois. No ex " ptions will be made for an- S?ato. It will be use'pss to offer Teutons for exceptions. There must be system and fairness in all things. The de cision must stand that one-half of the oliiuteers from ecch State shall be mustered out, but no more." - - THE Cl'BAX SITUATION. Report from Cuba, states, the chief insurgents are against an American protectorate. They do l .. to be annexed to the United .S'i8. They watt comp!et9 inde- j-:clC . It is said the elik-f reas v they bhvo to annexation is their fear of the competiiion cf American rivals as storekeepers, hotel man gers and restauranteurs. They are afraid that the Americans instead of coming to buy out their establish ments aud stocks at fabulous prices, based upon the old Spanish duties, will open shops iext door, import goods at low duties under the new regime, ruin their !visinees and re duce them to poverty. '"Exactly the same spirit prevails among the planters, especially the smaller ones, who had hoped to sell at good pi ices the old Frer-ch and Belgian machinery, for which tbey paid dear and imported raider ex cefiive duties. They realize that the Am-rican syndicates will bring American machinery much cheaper and pnying practically no duties, es tablish a large central market, close theirs and push them to the wall. The awakening of all such dream ors to Ibe reality ol the future na ture of American competition causes them now to shout loudly for Cuban h dependence, under which tbey itol.1i1 expect to enjoy the blessings f lenient laws without fear of active competition. All this f mounts practically to a silent admission of Cuba's inability o offr, if left to herself, the guran- lets of stability that would induce foreign capital to come here to de- vd-.p the island's resources. The deductions seem to be this: With Cub independent, no foreign capi tat t-.nd no competition ; with Cuba under American rule, a competition uirainst which the Cubans would net Lava the. euergy or the power to sac Cltd Tiiose nuestions are uppermost m fvarv mind, ranking for general un tthictss and discontent, preventing the resumption of normal tone of the mxi ket and blocking trade and traffic.

Mr. Johnston tracked them to Foltz, Franklin county, but was unable to learn who was in charge of the flock. They like ly reached the eastern markets be ;r. Johnston was aware that .uey were stolen.

A country teacher, who is ex pected to make angels out of the untrained do-as-you-please imps who are entrusted to his care, re ceived the following note from a parent : "Teacher : What shall I do mit Charley! Me and- my man can't nothing make of him. When we want to lick der little devil he gets the bed far under, where we can't reach for him, and must put a hook on der bedroom door to hold him for his licking. Please soak him in school shust so often you got time." Mrs. Snedivels. Another note which shows great affection for the father reads : "Teacher: If Louis is bad, plebse lic'-c him till his eyes are blue, he is very stnblioru, he has a great (leal of the mule in him, he takes after his father. Mrs. IV Here is one from a parent who claimed that the lioard of Educa tion was giving cents to smart children every month. "Teacher : Please give the money this month to my girl Min nie and not to Fred, for two months he got 95 per cents, and he brought not one cent home, altho his father and me licked him. Mrs. IS."' Some parents, who make such cruel inflictions upon their off spring as to make them learn the alphabet beiore they learn any thing else, write like this : "Teacher ; I dink you are a fool, you want my loy to read when he dont no no alierbits. blease teach him some." One from a mother who objects to physical culture : "Miss Brown: You must stop teach my lizzie risical torture she needs yet readin' and ligors mit sums more as that, if I want her to do j u m pi n I kin make her jump. Mrs. Canavowsky." Some parents object to the tem perance plant iu the educational platform. One wrote : "Mr.: You should mine your own bizness an not tell Jake he should not trink bier, so lDug he lif he t rinks bier and he triuus it yet wen bill rains is ded, ifyouiu terfer some more I go on the bored of edcation. W. S." Here is one with a touch of sad ness iu it. "Miss I Slant: Please excuseu my Paul for liein absent he is yet sick with' the dipterry and der doctors dont tink he will discover, to oblige his loving aunt Mrs. . I am his mother's sister from her first husband." The child mentioned in the fol lowing note is neither German or Irish. But he got back in the school after a battle with the doc tors : "Miss : Frank could not come these three wee!.s because he had the Anion ia and information of the vowels. Mrs. Smith." Ex INTERESTING TOSSIL. PRINTS. From tbe Puuxsutawney Spirit. Perbap9 as fine specimens of the fossii footprints of the labyrintho dant reptile known as the cheirotbe- rium ever discovered are to be seen upon locks taken from tho quarry cf Epbraim Adams, just north of Punx srTuey. The name cf cheirolhe nuiii s given to this animal be cause of the fact that its footprints resemble somewhat n rude and stubby human baud. The impression that one not versed in the scierce cf pale ontologv would naturally receive from lockicg at the tracks is that the feet that made them belong to an animal resembling the bear. But these wLo make a specialty of th'S subject have determined1 that the tracUs were m'-.ile Iy a Uase amphi bian of the lizard familv. These tracks are to be seen ia solid gray sinstone rock in Me. Adams's quarry eighteen feet below the surface. Every track, nt the animal walked r(.s3 thirty fett of exposed r ck, is iinlv visible. The rock stratum in which these footprints are found bo orgs to the reptilian pge, before there were any mammals upon the face of the whole earth, and so long ago that it nmkts one dizzy to flunk of it. TURFMEN UNDER THEIR HORDES. An Accident took place orf the Hoilidaysburg race track last Friday afternoon that was thrilling in its nature and in all probability wiil re sult in the death of a bold rider. It was the occasion of the Blair county Fair. Two Altoona turfmen, Samuel Shaw, and S. B. Barnes, were riding their own bors'-s in a running race, in a half mile race. While the horses were running like the wind Barnes horse stumbled, and executed complete somersault, "throwing his rider and also the horse ridden by Mr. Shaw, and the horses in the rear running on to them. It is thought that one of the other horses jumped upon Barnes' side. Mr. Uurnts was picked up uncon scious and removed to the Altoona Hospital with little hopes of bis re covery, bbaw was less seriously in mred and was taken to his borne in Altcona.
