A large portion of the weekly finan cial letter of Henry Clews Is devoted to advocacy of imperialism. Mr. Clews is uii enthusiast, usually a "bull" on the : market, and as such may be forgiven for some of the ••bulls" iu his logic. Seizing the catch phrases of "manifest destiny" and "the policy which circum stances have forced upon us" —which serve so many of the imperialist school to hide their paucity of argument —Mr. Clews proceeds to uso the unfortunate example of imperial Rome to illustrate the power to which the t'nited States may attain. The mere mention of Rome, as the type, is enough to condemn the whole proposition for expansion. The Roman republic grew to power through agencies i similar to those which have operated to j make the great American republic; it sacrificed its manhood to the lust for i power and wealth when it entered upon a career of conquest; it developed its i social excesses upon a system of sub- j j".etioti and enslavement of alien peoples; it became an empire because the repub lic could not endure one part free and ten parts slave—as Lincoln said this republic could not ••endure half slave and half free" —and Rome fell by the weight of it* own corruption, sank below the level of its conquered serfs. Mr. Clews is equally unfortunate in other portions of his rhapsody. For ex- j ample, when, after picturing an Ameri- j can imperial power like unto that of Rome, he declares that it will maintain the "open door" in the Orient "with the assistance of England." Who would ever have thought of imperial Rome j having assistance from anybody in maintaining anything! Rome ruled the | whole world, and the Clews conception of American imperialism implies the irresponsible conflict and final conquest, i even of Great Britain. But Mr. Clews is not more inconsistent or illogical than ; his fellow expansionists. They fall ! naturally into such blunders because , their whole proposition is illogical—an I error of judgment. Recent examples of this inconsistency are presented in pretentious papers in the Engineering Magazine by Captain Al fred T. Mahan and Engineer Charles B. (niings. an associate editor of the rnaga- i zinc. Captain Muhan asserts the sound principle that experience is the best i teacher and the equally reasonable dictum that one man may excel in one tiling. Yet lie argues that the United j States should, without obtaining ex- j perience, occupy tho field in which j Great Britain has been conspleously sue- I eessful only after some centuries of experiment, marked by grievous fail ures, instead of leaving that field to Great Britain. Mr. Going* sensibly proves tho asser tion that the engineer is less perplexed by physical difficulties than by changing economic legislation and policies of governments —that tho engineer's pros perity i> dependent upon tho confidence i>f capital in the permanence of condi tions. Then he goes on to arguo that ilie engineer, the pioneer developer, will profit from tho most radical change of national policy over proposed in this country. Mr. Goings becomes confused between the expansion of American In lluonco. a* an industrial power, and the policy of transmarine territorial expan sion, which is foreign to the American system, and threatens the future growth of our industrial supremacy. It may be conceded that tho posses sion of foreign territories —including the. implied efforts to control their peoples and develop their natural resources—of fers an attractive prospect to tho naval or military expert and the exploiting engineer. It certainly means employ ment for them. But aside from their selfish interest, they should he capable of taking a broader patriotic view. That which gives employment to thein brings nothing but uncertainty to estab lished industries, affrights conservative capital, and imposes a burden of taxa tion upon the domestic labor of tho ex ploiting nation. In regard to tho interests of commi - slon brokers, any impending national movement may he "a good enough Mor gan" for a temporary "bull" or "bear" campaign, if it can be made to serve to bring the public into the market. But for the mass of people there arc deeper and broader considerations. The good •way for them is that which has been •proved by experienco to lead to substan tial ends, progress uud prosperity. II IB SCHEME The Havana Lottery Which for Years Has Been a Curse to Cuba. A GIGANTIC SWiNDLE. Tickets Sold Broadcast Over the isl and, But Winners Few and Far Between.

The Royal Lottery of Culm, with headquarters in Havana, is still doing business $1 ii ticket, anil (lie king of Spain, as ever, w inning the grand pri/.* ■f s.'io.ono at each drawing. Tin* *•> I gambling scheme, however, is inuring I lie end of its fortune-promising. luu por-produciug earner in Cuba. Here for many years ibis corpora iion. existing by royal grant ami end t royal favor, has conducted si tlior.mgh !y honorable swindling business, lis lilfle red tickets have spread ovt r Hie island, irritatingly, like the signs of prickly heat over the body. Billettos ile Loteria have sold 1.000,01 mi a month, at si each. Anil twenty-five per cent, at* this SI,(HIO.(HX) has been paid month ly to the royal ruler of Spain. Bill now that the said royal ruler is no longer to rule Cuba, since his royal army is to ■vaeuato the island, liis royal lottery is in danger of eviction. Ilenee. the corporation's president and all ils vice presidents have put their heads together and concocted a scheme, by the operation of which they hope to continue business at the obi stand. They have planned to cut loose from the royal head in Spain, to drop from their concern's name the word •Royal" and substitute the word Cu ban. Moreover, the twenty-five per ?ent of the gross receipts now deuiand •d and received by Spanish royally, will be offered to the Cuban govern ment. The question now is. will the Cuban government, or rather, ought the Cuban government, to accept the proffered bribe and permit the lottery to continue business. In Havana, Santiago. Cienfuegos. Matan/.as. everywhere in the island, lottery tickets are sold by every worth less man. woman or child, who can secure the confidence of a broker. The broker trusts the peddler with the tickets, and the peddler sells them for i certain commission. Thus far. the lottery scheme is good it furnish s employment for the needy and the ne'er-do-well. The peddlers infest the streets, wharves, and shops. While von sit in a cafe, you are offered twen y hillctcs by twenty different venders in as many minutes. In tlie old prosperous times, the ti< k ;ts cost .$1 each, in Spanish silver. But since the beginning of the Cuban war. more than three years ago. tin* iriee has been $1 in paper. Two hun I red and fifty thousand tickets are is nied and there is a drawing every ten lays. At the last drawing on the morning of Oct. 10. the bait offered to ihe poor people of Cuba consisted of the usual grand prize of $50,000 ai d. n addition, one premium of SIO,OOO one if $5,000, four of SI,OOO each, two of Moo each, two of SUOO each and seven j hundred and ninety eight of SIOO each making a total of 800 premiums, am mounting to $150,000. Two hundred mil fifty thousand tickets were issued, ind supposedly, all sold. Yet during the ten days in which that quarter Billion pieces of worthless paper were sold at $1 each, misery reigned in Cu ba. People were starving to death. Eight cents a day would have saved ind still save a life. I Just before tho wnr. when the ITdtcd States began the work of Cuban re ief, money was sent to Consul General Lee. The general distributed the nee ! "ssnry 8 cents a day to those of the re ; •onoentradoes who were found worthy. Still the starving starved. What did ! these people do with their 8 cents? en. Lee investigated, lie found that the money went toward the purchase if lottery tickets: and he at once cabled Washington: "Don't send cash. Send •ornmeal and codtish." Since the raising of the blockade the people generally have lost some of , their confider.ee. for the lottery ofiicials have been detected passing out count -1 erfeit coin with good currency. Still the draw ings are held every ten days. An observer has noticed that out of the housands of spectators present at each Ira wing, not one. on any occasion, held t winning nil tuber. Two hours after each drawing the names of the winners are published in the Havana "extras and cried in all | the streets. The names are telegraph- M 1 to the newspapers in Santiago. Ma j tanzas. ami other cities. Ilut as no ad | dresses are given, it is obviously im possible to meet winners face to* face. I'lie Royal Lottery officials positively refuse to give any information what i soever, their plea is iliat they must I respect, "keep sacred." the privacy of their patrons. After the drawing of j Sept. lb. one oi the vice presidents was asked a very ordinary question oon •erning the conduct of Mm lottery. Ills reply was: "Senor, this is our business and not yours." This royal company of pickpockets, however, may soon have to walk Spati sn by order of an American. fpJ' TITO floigli'fl to Attain.

His Dlfflc'ultie* on Once More Taking lip Tlic Ordinary Way* of I.ife. "For a long time after I liad given up business." said the retired burglar, "I had great difficulty in accommodat ing myself to the ordinary conditions of life. j ••There were some curious tilings about this Unit might never occur to you at all. For instance, in those days, if I come home late at night, that is. at the hour at which formerly I had gone into other people's houses, 1 never went in at my own front door; I used to go in at a cellar window. And then I made it easy for myself, too.. When I locked up 1 lie cellar nights 1 used .o leave a cellar window unfastened so that it was perfectly easy for me to get In. "Hut one night, or one morning rather, about iI o'clock, when I got around to that window. I found it fastened, and I knew well enough what had happened. My wife had a per fect horror of burglars, and I knew she must have been around the eebar after me and seen the window unfastened and turned the buttons. Hut that was no impediment to me; it made me laugh to myself to think how easy ii was. and I opened the window and slid in as usual. "Hi sides having a horror of burglars my wife was great on pickles and pre serves and jellies and that sort of thing, which she used to put up her self and keep down cellar on a hang ing shell', consisting of a nice broad plank suspended by side pieces nailed to tlie floor beams overhead. I don't know how I (lid it—as a general thing we never do know how we come to do tilings but when I slid in that night I got turned in some way so that I was in danger of fnling, and I threw ant my arm instinctively to save my self and my hand touched the end of that shelf- -and naturally enough it •loseil over the board. And the sport if it was tluit I yanked that end of the shelf free from its support and pulled it down, and the bottles and 'ars went slam scattering down on the •ellar bottom—and 1 went down among em.

The stories about tlie Frenchmen eating snails are believed by many people to have no foundation in fact, ; but snails are eaten and to a very con siderable extent in France. Nearly 100.01 Ml pounds weight of snails are sold daily in Paris markets to be eaten by dwellers in that city. They are •are fully reared for the purpose in ex tensive snail gardens in the provinces mil fed on aromatic herbs to give them i fine flavor. One such garden in Hi ion is said to bring in to its proprietor several thousand francs a year. Many Swiss cantons also contain large snail gardens, where they are reared with great pains. Tliey are not mly regarded as a great delicacy, but are considered very uutritous. Hy jjienists state that they contain 17 per •out. nitrogenous matter and that tliey ire equal to oysters in nutritive prop i ertics. Snails are also extensively used as an article of food in Australia, Sunlit, Italy and Egypt and tlie countries on ihe African side of the Mediterranean. Indeed, the habit of snaus as food has •xisted in various parts of Europe for many centuries. ot the Memory. Writing of diseases of the memory, i Russian doctor gives an interesting iccount of some of the eccentricities of Ids patients. In the case of a literary man. some time previous to his seeking advice he had been troubled with an absolute failure of memory. He could remember exactly every thing he had done more than a year ago. but occurrences of later date lie had entirely forgotten. When attack ed by the disease he was engaged in writing a novel, which he had half finished. He remembered the first half, but could not t' 11 how he had intended to finish it. He was at last unable to remember whether he had dined. In another case the patient tells of his travels, but reports the tales a dozen times an hour, with the same phrases. He would play a game of cards carefully and well; five minutes afterward he would mention that ho bad not played for weeks. He would say "Good morning." when tlie doctor made his first visit of the day, but did not remember the visit three minutes later, If the doctor again looked in. I'nptilitr ItaliefH.

One of them, a stout "auntie," stopped and gasped ostentatiously every time she passed before it. "Whut de matter, Aunt Hannah?" asked the boy who was supposed to help around the kitchen and who was her especial aversion. "Whut makes you keep shyin' like a hoss?" She disdained to answer, but chanc- j ing to pass the fan again, gave another j gasp. "Is you got de asthma, or is you jes' pautin' 'cause Itie wahm?"

He j made no fuss about the matter, and any one of his friends who met him that evening could not have told from his manner was anything but wrong. Grant had taken big chances to in- j crease his fortune, and now he realized the Jig was up; exposure might come j in a week, or it might be delayed for a month, but it was sure to come, un- 1 less he had one thousand pounds in hard cash, and that amount he knew j he could not get. Old Monckton,, Grant's employer, was a hard-hearted old skinflint, who would have no mercv when investi- : gation showed that his assistant was a defaulter. Young Moncktonowed Grant money, : but even if he had paid it all that night it was not enough to cover the defalcation, and so was useless. He walked that night to his rooms i overlooking the Thames embankment. He went to a cupboard, and spent j some time in choosing with particular [ care a bottle of wine he intended to | drink. He poured out a small draught of the beverage, and, taking a papei" j of morphine he opened it carefully i and sprinkled the white contents on | the surface of the wine. He watched it as it slowly settled, and finally j disappeared in the liquid; then he j poured another glass of wine and ] drank it off. There was no hurry about drinking the poisoned cup; he had all the night before him, so he drew his comfortable arm-chair up j to the fire and sat down wondering who would find his dead body in the ; morning. At last, talcing up the pio- j soned glass, he paused for a moment with It in his hand, thinking he heard j a step on the stair. The next mo- ' ment his surprise was a certainty, as some one rapped at his door. Hastily putting down the glass he shouted: "Come in," forgetting the door was locked; then he rose hurriedly, drew the holt back and opened the door. "Hullo, Charley," Grant said when he saw who it was. The son of his j employer entered with a radiant look on his face. "Well, Stillman. I have come to secure my debt to you. I have made up my mind that you shall not suffer by my having borrowed money from you." "Oh, that's all right," said Grant carelessly, "I don't need the money." "No, I know you don't need it," said Monckton, "but it struck me I that if anything happened to me my | father would never acknowledge the ; debt, and you would be out just that ! much." "It doesn't really matter, you know," I said Stillman Grant in the same un- j concerned voice. "I shall always be j happy to lend you money when you j need it and I have it." "Thanks, old fellow, I know that," said young Monckton. "You are as generous as the old man is stingy. | Nevertheless, I got a windfall the j other day, and the minute I received I the money I thought of you." "Ah," said Grant, with his eyes j brightening somewhat. "How much "Five hundred pounds in a lump." \ answered the other. "Oh," said Grant in a disappointed tone. "You don't congratulate me," cried young Monckton. "Five hundred pounds are not to be scoffedgtt." "No," replied Grant still i-iiUO isn't a fortune, you know. "It isn't, hut it might be turned into a tidy sum of money. Now, let me tell you what I have done, Grant. I know I will never lie able to pay you that sum of money; if I became a partner in the business it might be different, so I took part of the £SOO and insured my life for £'2,0(10, making it payable to you it my death. If I am cut off in one of my sprees, which is more than likely, then you will* get back all your money with interest at soveral thousand per cent." As the young man said this he drew from an inner pocket what Grant saw was evidently an insurance policy. "There you are, my boy, with the first year's premium paid," said Monckton, as he threw the policy on the table. "I'll leave it with you, be cause you are a steady, sober fellow. If I can't pay the next premium when it falls due you'il pay it for me and charge it up to the account I already owe you. You see, my friend, you are quite safe as far as your money is concerned." "Well," said Monckton, "1 must ho off. Won't you come out and take a drink?" "I think not," said Grant; "I'm busy to-day, but if you wish a drink" have a glass of wine with me." "I don't mind if I do," said young Monckton. Grant pushed toward him a glass of wine in which he had sprinkled the morphine, then he poured out wine for himself in another glass. "Here's to you," he said, drinking. Young Monckton drunk ofT the wino and smaeked ills lips after, "I think I'll have a hansom. 1 feel rather drowsy." "Oh, you'll be all right when you get into the fresh air," rejoined Grant. The young man staggered slightly, as if he were intoxicated; the other watched him go down the street and hail a cab. "Poor devil," said Grant to himself, as he turned away. The medical men said the young fellow had died of a disease with a long name, and then the Insurance company claimed it had been defraud ed by the fart of hie having the mal ady concealed from it. Thus was the honest man defrauded out of his in surance money, and he was nabbed by the police for his defalcations be fore he could purchase more polaon. seme Pointed Questions Does your urine contain any sediment ?
