SAGO PALM OF TUDOR PLACE
The Oa.hout of Oae That Wan Part
of Uoa TOU'H Famous Tea Cargo.
One of the most interesting homes In
historic Georgetown is the Tudor
place. The sago palm of revolution
ary fame stands in the Tudor conser
vatory in winter and on the beautiful
lawn in summer. It belongs to Martha
Washington's granddaughter, Mrs.
Brlttania W. Kennon, who is the oldest
living descendant of the family.
In 1775, when the historic cargo of
tea was dumped into Boston harbor,
there were on hoard three small palms.
The largest was carefully sent to
Mount Vernon, another to the home of
Gov. Morris of Morrisanla, while the
third was taken to the Pratt gardens,
near Philadelphia. Ten years later
the conservatory at Mount Vernon was
burned and the palm lost. Thirty-six
years later, in 1813, Mrs. Kennon's
mother drove in her carriage (a Jour
ney of four days) to Philadelphia, vis
ited the Pratt gardens, bought several
little plants, and carried them in a
basket to her own greenhouse. One
of them was an offshoot of the original
sago palm, and to-day is a veritable
Colonial Dame or Daughter of the
Revolution.
It is now almost a century old, and
has never known another borne. Its
fruit Is not abundant, like the cocoanut
or date palm. It bears a small apri
cot-shaped fruit only once in several
years. Its terminal budding at the
end of the stem 1b like a crown. Some
years it unfolds long, slender spikes,
or palm branches, but several times
during Mrs. Kennon's life there has
been a wonderful growth of fern-shap
ed, delicate leaves, soft and spongy in
texture and color. When left on the
tree, until the sap is pretty well down
in the trunk, they retain their shape
and color many years. Botanlßts have
examined them with keen interest. It
appears like a cabbage, and slowly un
folds its yellowish brown fern leaves,
after the fashion of our house ferns.
If left on the tree they die.
Mrs. Kennon remembers well La
fayette's visit to Tudor place, when
ehe was a little Virginia maid of nine
years, and the sago palm was only
eleven years old.

FREELAND, PA., JUNE 26, 1890.
Noble (?) Work iu the Philippines.
The North American , of Philadelphia,
a staunch Republican newspaper and
formerly an advocate of expansion and
so-called imperialism, in an Issue last
week prints two letters purporting to
ho written by a soldier in Manila to a
friend of his in Philadelphia which con
tain statements so monstrous that for
his own credit as well as for the good
name of humanity one would gladly be
lieve them to bo falsehoods, were It
readily possible so to esteem them. The
brutality and diabolism expressed in
them are unmatched and not to be ex
ceeded by anything of that sort possible
to be run across anywhere.
The writer is a Pennsylvanlan, not
long ago a traveling salesman In Phila
delphia, who had strayed as far as
Seattle, and there, the war breaking
out, had enlisted in the First Washing
ington Volunteers. The North Ameri
can,, in introducing tho lettor, says:
Startling, revolting information con
cerning tho war in the Philippines has
just come to light. If true, it places an
ignominious brand on the American
soldier. It holds him up as a wanton
marauder, a savage, unmerciful con
queror. It accuses American military
commanders of wilfully prolonging the
war.
This soldier tells at length, with great
swagger and glee, his exploits In "kill
ing lots of niggers," as he says, and In
looting and bnrning towns. In one
place he says:
We burnt over two thousand houses.
I smashed some fine, big plate-glass
mirrors and chandeliers just to hear the
noise. I tell you, this war is fine, and I
like if I don't get shot. Smashing,
burning, and killing; it is lino.
Plenty more of this sort is there in
what he has to say. He tells too, of
like oxploits of his comrades. He con
fesses that evon he, however, is haunted
at tho thought that he Is a womau-killcr:
These women here are devils, and
light like men. This was tho first one I
killed, though I didn't like to, but had
to.
Then he tells of robbing tho dead,
picking their pockets, and stripping
thorn of their ornaments and clothes.
And ho has the following to say of his
military superiors:
They are offering all kinds of induce
ments for us to re-cnlist in the regulars,
but no more in mine. Our regiment is
all shot to pieces, and we expect to be
homo in July. These fat-headed officers
arc trying to mako a big war out of this,
so they can get promotions, glory, and a
chance to rob tho government. If they
would give Dewey his way this war
would be over in a month, but they
don't want it to bo over so soon—good
graft for a lot of , who sit
in Manila and never go near the firing
line. If they would once come out of
their holes, I think wo would have some
new generals here. King was the only
one here any good, and ho got disgusted
and went home. Our colonel, W. 11.
Wholley, is now brigadier general, but
they won't lot him do anything.
In its comment upon this specimen of
correspondence from tho front, tho
North American adds in conclusion:
From the foregoing it will bo seen
that e.ither Roberts [the name of the
soldier writing as above] Is fit for a
severe court-martial or dastard work
has been dono in the Philippines.
The Name, of the l'oor.
Tho regular monthly mooting of tho
Directors of tho Middle Coal I''lcld Poor
District will be hold tomorrow. Several
important matters will come up for con
sideration, chief of which the publica
tion of the names of thoso who receive
outdoor relief.
Since the protest made by the Tm-
BUNK a few weeks ago against this de
parture we have received assurances In
the form of letters and personal remarks
that the position taken by us on behalf
of tho unfortunatos is endorsed in every
section of the poor district.
The board Is not unaminons on this
question, we arc pleased to learn, and if
such action Is ordered It will be dono In
opposition to tho advico of thoso who
know most about tho poor and the
charity systotn of our state.
New directors ought not act hastily in
Introducing what they may honestly bo-
Hove to be reforms when these innova
tions do not receivo the approval of
men longer in the relief busines than
they.
OUR CAPITAL LETTER.
INSIDE INFORMATION FROM THE
POLITICAL CENTRE.
Hanna Fighting His Senatorial Colleague
Through a Chicago Newspaper—McLean
Wants to Run With Bryan In 1000.
Dowe's Testimony on Trusts.
Washington D. C., June 23, 1899.
A prominent Ohio Republican has
been telling party tales out of school.
He said of the fight on Senator Foraker,
by H. H. Kohlsaat, editor of the Chi
cago Timet-Herald, which has caused so
much talk because of the close personal
relations known to exist between Mr.
McKinley and Mr. Kohlsaat: "I have
absolute personal knowledge that the
assaults made upon For&ker, in the
Chicago Timet-Uerald are the result of
an understanding between Its editor
aud Senator Hanna. The lattor said
at the Columbus convention, after For
aker had declared against the Hanna
machine, that he proposed to get even
with him, aud would resort to any
moans that might be necessary to down
him. Forakor's term In the senate will
expire in 1903, and Hanna intends to
prevent his re-election. lam thorough
ly convinced that Mr. McKinley is
familiar with every move made by Kohl
saat against Foraker. I would not say
that Hanna is paying Kohlsaat out of
funds of the Republican national com
mittee, for making war on Foraker, but
those who know Kohlsaat best say that
he seldom does anything without being
in some way rewarded for it. Hanna
has bought Ross Cox, and if ho will stay
bought, thero will be serious trouble for
Foraker in the Cincinnati end of the
state."
t t t
Thnrs Isn't the sllghest doubt about
tho position of Rcprosontatlve Lentz, of
Ohio, on national issues. He said of llio
national outlook: "The only thing
that can keep Mr. Bryan front being
president of the United States, Is for
the Ilnnna Democrats and the Hanna
Republications to prevent his nomina
tion. They are now scheming to bring
about that consummation, but they will
hardly succeed. lam for Ilryan In 1000,
and a repetition of the Chicago platform,
with some additions. I favor the elec
tion of United States senators by direct
vote, and also hopo to see tho Initiative
and referendum made a part of our
governmental system."
t .t *
There is a rumor afloat that Mr. John
R. McLean, of Ohio, who also has a
home in Washington, intends to estab
lish a dally paper at tho national cap
ital, which will support Colonel Rryan
for president and advocate free silver;
also that Mr. McLean would like to run
on the ticket with Colonel Bryan.
X X X
It Is not surprising that the adminis
tration should have quietly overlooked
the break made by Prof, n&upt, a mem
ber of the present and of tho last canal
commission in confirming the general
impression that influences strong enough
to thwart the almost unanimous wish of
the people of this country, had been
successfully used to prevent the build
ing of the Nicaragua canal, and even to
prevent tho publishing of the report
made by the last commission, which Is
said to contain a scatering exposure of
some of these Influences. The subject
is chock fMil of political dynamite, and
the administration was afraid of It.
Therefore, instead of calling Prof. Haupt
down for his too truthful exposure of a
national scandal and firing him from
the now commission, the administration
got him to write a letter saying ho had
been misquoted by the newspaper that
printed the exposure, and was glad to
let It go at that.
t i t
One of the most valuable witnesses
who has testified before the Industrial
Commission, since It tackled the trusts,
was P. F. Dowe, president of the Com
mercial Traveler's National League.
He presented some startling figures.
He said the formation of trusts would
throw 35,000 drummers out of work and
reduce the' pay of 25,000 who would
keep their jobs, which would mean a
loss to the men in salaries of 800,000,000;
a loss to tho railroads of the country of
821,000,000, and to the hotels of
828,000,000. Mr. Dowe gave details of
the number of men knocked out of
places by recently formed trusts, and
read a list showing the absurdity of the
claim that the general tendency of
trusts was to lower prices. This list,
which was obtained from drummers re
cently in tho trades named, showed the
following increases in prlco directly
traceable to trust control: Iron pipe
100 per cent, tin and enameled ware
33, brass goods 60, chairs 30, rubber
14, tin plate 30, news paper l 4 to %
cent a pound, book paper 5 to 10 per
cent, common soap 25 to 50 cents a
box, flint glass bottles 10 per cent,
clocks 60, metal goods 25, brushes 121,
combs 1)4 and ribbons 10. In the few
cases in which trusts have reduced
prices, it has been done, not to benefit
tho consumer, but to drive out competi
tion.

IN JAIL FOR DEBT. %
A Xl.btor'. Prla.n Whara Inuaralllf
■algwt Stipr.m..
The King's Bench was the largest of
all the debtors' prisons. It formerly
stood on the east side of the High
street, on the site of what Is now the
second street north of Bt. George's
Church, London. This prison was
taken down In 1758, and the debtors
were removed to a larger and much
more commodious place on the other
side of the street south of Lant street—
the site Is now marked by a number of
new and very ugly houses and mean
streets. In the year 1776 the prisoners
had to lie two In a bed, and even for
those who could pay there were not
beds enough, and many slept on the
floor of the chapel. There were 396
prisoners; In addition to the prisoners
many of them had wives and children
with them. There were 279 wives and
275 children—a total of 1,399 sleeping
every night In the prison. There was a
good water supply, but there was no
infirmary, no resident surgeon, and no
bath. Imagine a place containing 1,399
persons, and no bath and no Infirmary!
Among these prisoners, about a hun
dred years ago, was a certain Colonel
George Hanger, who has left his "Me
moirs" behind him for the edification
3t posterity. According to him the
prison "rivaled the purlieus of Wap
plng, St. Giles, and St. James' In vice,
debauchery, and drunkenness." The
general Immorality was so great that It
was only possible, he says, to escape
contagion by living separate, or by
consorting only with the few gentle
men of honor who might be found
there. "Otherwise a man will quickly
link Into dissipation: he will lose every
tense of honor and dignity, every moral
principal and virtuous disposition."
Anthorn In Cklna.
Authors In China have a lovely time.
When the editor rejects a contribution
he does not return It together with a
cruelly polite little printed slip which
states that "It is not because of any
fault with the MS., but because of the
present large supply on hand of matter
of the same description" the article is
returned. No; this is the kind of let
ter the Chlneee editor writes:
"Illustrious Brother of the Sun and
Moon! Behold thy servant at thy feet,
who kißses the earth before thee and
asks thy gracious permission to speak
and live. We have read thy manu
ccrlpt with delight. By the bones of
our ancestors we swear that we have
never found such manuscript! If we
should print it, his majesty, the em
peror, would command us to adopt It
as a standard and never again print
anything not equal to it. As tnat
would not be possible within 10,000
rears, we return thy manuscript, trem
bling and Imploring thy pardon 10,000
times. My head is at thy feet and lam
the slave of thy slave."
Courtesy could hardly be carried fur
ther, and whenever they decline an ar
ticle the Chinese newspapers must
make a friend of the author.
A Talking Crow.
Bethel, Me's, latest curiosity Is a
talking crow which entertains the
boys and girls. The bird was found
In the woods over a year ago when
young, having fallen from Its nest and
broken a wing. It was taken home
and cared for but showed no Inclina
tion to talk until a few months ago. It
talks as well as parrots, but favors
words containing "o" and "Hello, hel
lo, Moses, Ora. Whoa there!" cause
the passershy to turn quickly at times.
A Long Voyage.
The unwleldlness of au empire which
should embrace the Philippines Is Illus
trated by the experience of a merchant
skipper of Castine, Me. He left Ma

around the Cape, stopping at St. Hele
na. When he started there was no
expectation of war; when he reached
Maine the war was over.
Alcohol In Temperance Drink..
One thousand, live hundred and eigh
ty samples of temperance drinks were
analyzed at the British government
laboratory. Of this number, one-third
were found to contain more than the
2 per cent, of alcohol allowed by law.
Some of the samples contained as much
as 6 to 8 per cent.

Jff WHITE HEATHER. ~ ; :V
iMlakairi Believe It Bring. Goal
U Lnk-lln u 111 Omen.
I' When the Princess Beatrice was
Married she was presented by the high
landers of Balmoral with a bouquet
onatalnlng a conspicuous sprig of
White heather. There was a profus
ion of flowers at Osborne House, but
Bone considered so precious as this
■pray of white blossoms, and If the
bouquet bad not arrived In time the
Archbishop of Canterbury would have
been obliged to wait for Its coming, for
the hlghlanders, who wished to do the
Princess honor, felt that It was Indis
pensable to her "luck" for her to hold
It during the marriage ceremony, or,
M they express It, "be married In It."
"Who finds keeps," is a common say
ing In the mouths of those who go out
to look for white heather. The search
ers are many, but few find It, even
when It Is wanted to grace the mar
riage bouquet of a princess. A blend
ing of blue and purple Is the familiar
color of the flower, and it Is found In
plenty In very pale tints, so pale that
the searcher is often deceived, believ
ing at first sight he has found "the
white pearl." Many a hlghlander
who travels the hills dally never found
a sprig of real white heather; not that
be never looked for It, for every high
lander believes that It brings rare good
I luck to the finder, and that the luck
can be passed on to bis friends. Ex
cept In color It does not dlfTer from
that which covers all the highland
; hills. Tt Is the ordinary flower, but
j pure white, standing out from the
clumps of purple like a snow flake.
They say In the far North that when
the sheep, who dearly love the tender
heather, come across It In their graz
ing. they avoid harming It, and the
grouse have never been known to
crush It with their wings. There are
three varieties of heather In Scotland,
and each sends up a white flower. The
purple flower is the most and then a
pure white sprig in miles of familiar
of all sights on the hills. Burns sings
of the "blue heather bell," but only the
snow white acts as a talisman.
Women's Pocket and the Wheel.
The wheel has done a good deal for
the physical development of the new
woman. A little incident that hap
pened yesterday on upper Nineteenth
street gave interesting proof of this.
A sweet-faced woman with silvered
hair and clad In a plain gray dress was
riding slowly along when she saw
ahead of her a small boy pushing along
on a tricycle and towing a little blue
cart tied with a string to the axle of
his vehicle. There were more young
sters further up the street, and the
little chap was looking at them and
trying to put on speed to reach them.
A smile overspread the face of the sil
ver-haired woman, and a sudden
thought seemed to occur to her.
She rode a little slower, held the
handlebar with one hand and with the
other found the pocket In her dress.
Skilfully she guided her bicycle close
to the little rod cart, and as she reach
ed It the disengaged hand drew from
the pocket a big, round, red apple,
which she deftly dropped In the little
cart.
The boy did not hear It and kept on.
The woman rode past, then turned and
came behind, riding slower than be
fore. The youngeter at length reach
ed his playmates and dismounted.
As he did so he Baw his prize and
jumped for It, then looked wonderlngly
around to see where It came from.
The lady with the silver hair watoh
ed him as she wheeled past and evi
dently had her full reward In the
child's pleasure and astonishment.
But the marvel to the man who saw
It from the sidewalk was how a wo
man could find her pocket on a wheel.

Hnmor After the Battle.
The laziest man In the regiment lay
in the hospital tent. A comrade came
to see him.
"Lost a leg, eh?" he said. "Why,
that leg was not so badly shot as to
need amputation."
"I know it," drawled the lazy man.
"But nevertheless I recommended It."
"You did? Why so?" said the other
astonished.
"Because." muttered the patient, "I
won't have but one boot to keep shlned
now!"
The other turned aside.
"Just throw that leg out back of the
tent," said the wounded man. "I'll do
the same thing for you some time."
"Hang me If you do!" cried the com
rade, hurrying away.
Kelt Stockings For Wkeelwomen.
Leggings, overgaiters and high top
cycling boots for women will scarcely
be used this season, according to the
dealers In these articles, who say that
the trade In these lines has fallen off
greatly, and very few new Btyles have
been produced for the coming season.
The wheelwomen found leggings too
warm and clumsy, and the high top
bootß wrinkled and seldom fitted well.
Golf Btocklngs worn with shoeß of
about the usual height have been sub
stituted.
She Liken to Cook.
Mrs. Ruth McEnerey Stewart Is as
noted among her friends for her cull
nary accomplishments as for her lit
erary ability. She delights In concoct
ing dainty dishes and finds much re
creation from mental labor in prepar
ing a salad or a ragout. Over this
work, too, she Is wont to talk and Jest
and spin plantation yarns that are a
delight to the listeners, and she de
clares that praise of her cooking Is as
pleasing SB appreciation of her stories.
