Imagine a receding forehead, with small shifting eves beneath; A sensuous mouth with thick protruding lip, the jaw heavy and hinged close to the back of tho neck, with rolls of puffy llesh depending, and you have a countenance that would suggest something unpleasant to almost any one, and furnish a study for a sleuth, or a phy siognomist.

Gen. Leonard Wood, former Com- mander of the Rough Riders, and now Military Governor of Santiago, has furnished additional proof that he is an extraordinary man, by de clining an offer of 1:10,000 a year to become President of the big gyndi cate which has bought nine of Washington's street railways and its two electric light companies and is preparing to put thum all under a single management, although the salary offered was more than five times the amount he receives as a Brig. General of Volunteers. Gen. Wood will return to Cuba at once, because he believes it is his duty to do so. He speakes of his doing so in the most matter of fact tone. He said: "I intend to remain in the Military Service of the Government as long as the service needs me. I feel in honor bound to return to Santiago, now that yellow fever is reported to have broken out there." Gen. Wood has doubts about the sickness at Santiago being yellow fever, recalling his experience there last year with a pernicious malarial fever, which oaorijneti to drop in the streets, and which a number of experts pronounced to be yellow fev er. Speaking of the Cuban situa tion, he said : It is an easy matter to get along with the Cubans. You couldn't stir up a riot in Santiago to-day, if you tried. Everybody is contented for the first time in years. We have only to give the Cubans a good Government, so good that they will be reluctant to do without it, and that is an easy matter." William Bchoonover, a resident of Washington, D. C, is dead at the age of 68 years. He was born at Bushkill this county, and was a son of the late Simeon Scuoonover. He was a soldier in the Civil war and ssrved with distinction. He is sur vived by five brothers, George, of Port Jervis ; Robert, of Allentown ; Leander, of Perth Amboy. N. J. ; Simeon, of Wilkes. Barre, Pa., and Nelson, of Washington, D. C.,. and by two sisters, Mrs. Maria Smith, of East Stroudsburg, and Sarah Jane, of Pittston. He was a cousin to Mrs. William Angle, of Milford. There occurred somewhat of a chewing match at ' the Half Way House on Saturday between a bioy cle tourist and the proprietor, Mau rice Quinn, over the distance from Port Jervis to Milford. Mr. Quinn said it lacked just 60 yards of being seven miles from the Milford post office building to the Matamoras bridge. The gentleman awheel claimed his cyclometer had register, ed eight miles In the morning when he covered the distance, and also said he had seen several others that registered the same number of miles between the two points mentioned. The only conclusion arrived at was that Pennsylvania miles were a few hundred foet longer than those of New York State. Well, suppose the miles are a little longer. Show us the person who wouldn't prefer riding a few hundred feet further to the mile on Pennsylvania roads than a few hun dred feet short on miles on New York State roads.
