WASHINGTON LETTER.

Political and General Cloaaip of the National Capital. Special Correspondence to The Democrat. indications accumulate that this country is going to have a hard time letting go in Cuba. The visit of Secretary Taft to this island has not cleared the situation so much as it* might. It will be at least a year before the island can be banded oyer to the natives, and it is generally feared that when it is, there will be only a brief interlude before there is more revolutionary trouble and the intervention of the United States will again be called for to protect American property interests. This country has hundreds of millions of dollars invested in the island, and even this is not ae much as the combined interests of the other foreign governments. The experience of the American ad interim government has been that the Cubans are easy enough to govern, but that they will not govern themselves. It is a case of too many of them who are cut out for reporters and insist on being editors. This government has been besought by England, France and Germany not to let go of the island now it is under American control, the general fear being that the island if left to itself will develop into another Hayti under negro domination. Foreign governments cannot as a rule understand that the United States was sincere in its announcement that it did not want the island originally and was not going to fight Spain for the sake of acquiring- it. Preparations are being made for taking a new census preparatory to another election, but it will be six or eight months before that is completed. Then there will be another six months before the elections are held and the new government is set running. Then there will be considerable time required for the evacuation and most observers do not give the natives more than a year and a half after that to foment another revolution. If the United States is forced to go back again and take charge of affairs, it is a serious question whether it may not decide to stay permanently, if not annexing the island, at least keeping such a strict hand on affairs that it will virtually amount to annexation.

tit It looks now as though the fight io Central America might end in a tolerably permanent peace for the most of the warring states down there. There have been a number of conferences of South American diplomats at the State Department m the past two weeks and it is believed that they will be able to get Honduras, Salvador and Nicaragua together on the basis of a permanent peace and cement an agreement in virtue of which there will be quiet and internal development in the little republics along the isthmus and to the southward for some time to come. 't t t This government stands to do all it properly can for the peace of the world, and an indication of this was givtn this week by the announcement of the peace delegates to the Hague made from the State Department. The party will sail from this country for Antwerp about the middle of May and will include two more members than was ?riginally intended. The scope of the conference has been enlarged, too, and will take in other and more important questions than would have been considered had it met last summer as was intended. The delegates as announced are Joseph Choate, former Ambassador to the Court of St. James, Gen. Horace Porter, former Ambassador to France, Judge U. M. Rose, president of the Arkansas Bar Association, David Jayne Hill, American Minister to the Netherlands, Brig. Gen. Geo. B. Davis, Rear Admiral Chae. Sperry, and William I. Buchannan, first minister of the United States to the Republic of Panama. ,

One of the most remarkable pseudo international incidents on record for a long time was brought to a close this week by the departure for New York of Mrs. Ida Von Claussen, who came all the way from Sweden to see President Roosevelt about what she declared was a slight put on her by Minister Graves of Sweden. Mrs. Von Claussen was never heard of except by a limited circle of friends till the present incident arose. She waa rich, very beautiful and elegantly dressed. While in Sweden she wanted to be presented at court, but for some reason, the official one, was lack of proper credentials, she was not presented by our Minister. She

was very much incensed at what she termed this slight, and came all the way to Washington from Sweden to present her case personally to the President. She took quarters at the most expensive hotel in town and prepared to lay siege to the White House in her latest Paris gown. But right in the ante-room her personally conducted embassy bogged down to the hubs and stopped. The President was busy, very; the Secretary to the President was also busy, excessively. The secretary to the secretary was busier still, and the most that Mrs. Von Claussen could do was to send in a card by a messenger and be told that there was no use in coming back, and the whole of the White House staff would be too busy to see her at any tims. She stayed in Washington three days and tried to get a commission in lunacy appointed to inquire into her own sanity. But the President declined to take any of her demands seriously and she left town this week, vowing that she was going to Germany and renounce her American citizenship. How the Kaiser will make out with this fascinating but imperous subject is a question. t t t Those interested in the personality and doings of the great and near-great, will be pleased to learn that Secretary Taft, maybe-Republican-nominee for the Presidency, has succeeded in taking 100 pounds off his weight in the past year. He has put himself under the care of a noted physician, taken to a strict diet, cut out sweets, beer and as much of other liquids as he can, and rides horseback as much as possible; that is to say, as much as possible for the horse. The Secretary says he can afford to keep only two saddle horses of the Percheron breed and two horses don’t go very far with him yet. But he is happy in the reduotion he has already accomplished, and confided to a friend the other day that he really “did not weigh much more than a grand piano.” I have some fine eggs from pure bred Langshan chickens for sale at 50c per 15.

The Value of an Opinion.

One of the most discouraging features in the case of the young man who stays at home is the fact that, no matter what he may do, be seldom is given credit. If he takes his father’s business and makes it go big, everybody gives the credit to the father. I know of one case In a small western city. A merchant who had been considered wealthy and prominent died and left everything to his son. The boy had been away from home for three years and was doing fairly well in a strange city without relying upon paternal assistance. He returned and took hold of the business. To his surprise, he found conditions rotten. Beyond the good will the assets scarcely would cover the liabilities. He dug in, worked desperately and In two years’ time had things straightened out and was on the highroad to prosperity. A sudden business collapse in the town, followed by a bank crash, caught him hard, and he was forced to assign. He paid dollar for dollar, yet today in that town they point him but as a man who wrecked his father’s business.—Jonas Howard in Chicago Tribune.

Happily Answered.

One of the hardest things for a player to bear is when an audience laughs during a serious scene, Many a performer by his wit has been able to Sfve a scene. An Incident of this kind was experienced by the late Thomas Keene while playing Richard 111. He had just finished exclaiming “A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!” when. a young man In the audience called out, “Won’t a donkey do?” and .Mr. Keene quietly responded, “Yes: come up.”

To Clean White Flannel.

To clear stains on white flannel or blankets apply a little pure glycerin mixed with the yolk of an egg. Allow this to remain for an hour and then wash in a lather made of boiled soap. All woolens should be washed tn soap that has been dissolved by boiling. It is best to use rainwater if possible. Soil For House Plants. The one thing needed for the successfol growth of house plants as well as outdoor plants is good soil. A soil that la composed of three parts fibrous garden soil, one part sand and one part well rotted manure, all well mixed, will prove a good mixture for many of the plants suitable for house culture.

I Want DIFFICULT Eye Cases. Al! I Ask is That YOU Investigate at My Expense My Knifeless Method Which Has Cured So Many Cases After Others Have Failed. DONT GO BLIND—VISION IS TOO PRECIOUS. I want to meet with, or hear from every man, woman or child afflicted with diseases of the eye. I don’t care who the person is or what their eye trouble may be, I wiU be able to convince them A BSOLU TBLY FREE that my painless treatment will do more for them than any other method known to the profession. By this 1 do not mean there are not some isolated cases that cannot be cured, but I do mean to say emphatically that many and many difficult cases which _ .. have been termed i< curable by others have .been permanently cured by my Absorption treat- ’ meut.
