Plymouth, Ind., May 8. 1902. By annexation Cuba can secure free commerce with the United States, its best market, both for exports and imports. The door of prosperity and stability stands open, an:! Cuba will enter before manv years. According to reports the peace movement among the fighting Boers is proceeding satisfactorily. The war is still technically and actually under way, but the chances for its cessation in the next few weeks seem to be favorable. This is a prospect at which the world rejoices. Tfce postmaster general has appointed a committee to consider the question of adopting a system of return postal cards and return envelopes. The committee consists of the four assistant postmasters general and the auditor of the treasury for the Postoffice Department. Cyrus E. Davis, known as the Metsker of Southern Indiana, entered the race for the democratic nomination for congress in the second district expecting to have a walk-a-way, because Congressman Miers had declined to be a candidate. The district gives a democratic majority of About 4,000, and when the convention met today the delegates voted for Congressman Miers leaving Davis wondering where he was at. An Ohio Sunday-school teacher wrote to Admiral Dewey the other day to know whether it were true, as she had heard, that the jackies of his fleet were given liquor every twenty minutes during the right at Manila. Replying to this inquiry the admiral declared that "every participant, from myself down, fought the battle of Manila bay on coffee alone." Further, he called attention to the naval regulations, which forbid taking liquor aboard ship except foi medicinal uses, and that he had "none to give to his men even if he had deired to do so.

The bill for an injunction against the alleged beef trust is said to be one of the most elaborate that has ever been drawn by the officers of the govment. Though not as voluminous as some others, it has been drawn with extreme care.

About seventy American soldiers were massacred in Samar by pretended amigos. Then Gen. Smith was ordered to the scene, and the last of the hostiles on the island are surrendering. Re did not kill them all by a, good deal, but lie made them sick of getting up treacherous schemes of ra&sassination. Porto Rico is part of the United States and has the same freedom of trade as that enjoyed in the rest of the country. Its American exports and imports for eight months exceed $12,000,000, all free of duty. The prosperity of Pcrto Rico will make the Cubans thoughtful on the subject of annexation. C. O. Self, of Terre Haute, the clerk In the Internal revenue bureau who was deposed at the instance of the civil service commissioners because he refused to testify in the investigation made into the admini:tration of exCollector Henry, has prepared papers in his case for an appeal and brought them to the attention of both Indiana senators and Representative Holliday. The Elkhart Review states editorially with some degree of assurance that Judge John II. Baker will keep his word and tender his resignation as judge of the United States district court of Indiana in due time, but the Review is of the opinion that if the attorneys of the state bring sufficient pressure to bear they can induce him to remain in his present position as long as his faculties and energies are as vigorous as at present. It was senator-elect Arthur Pue Gorman who gave the democrats a little fatherly advics just before the oleomargarine bill went to its final vote in the senate the other day. In effect,he said:"Say, if you fellows want to do business with the country, why j don't you get on the popular side of a measure some day. It is not wise to be against everything. What is the use of taking up a lot of time ajguing against the constitutionality of the COW The cow is a mighty popular; proposition in this country. Give her a boast. Leave the cow and the hen! and such useful creatures alone." When the vote was taken a few hours ' later there was no democratic opposition. - ;

It is estimated that over 8,000 miles of new railroads will be built this year, and that $500,000,000 will be spent in constructing new lines and improving old ones. Mr. Crumpacker says that the way to retaliate on the democrats in their policy of attacking the administration on account of its conduct of affairs in the Philippines is to carry the war into Africa. He says that the thing to do is to insist on the taking up of the southern reapportionment question and insist on its immediate consideration.

The "Washington correspondent of the Pittsburg Dispatch says that the action which the president-has taken in regard to the alleged "beef trust" is the first good move that he has made. Evidently he has forgotten the injunctions against the railroad corporations which have been cutting rates for the meat packers ard his move in the matter of the "merger." The big beef-packing houses of Chicago have changed their attitude towards the proposed investigation of trust methods by" the government. At first they gave out interviews in which they not only denied the existence of any illegal combination, but offered to assist in the investigation. Now they have employed lawyers and are preparing to fight the prosecution of the case from beginning to end. The committee of postal and treasury experts who have been considering the question of a fractional postal currecny probably will recommend to congress a measure calling for the establishment of a currency of Dotes adpoted with improvements from the postal notes used in Canada, Great Britain, Germany and France. This plan calls for books of fractional currency arranged in detachable coupon form, which are to be obtained from postoffices or rural free delivery carriers in amounts from 5 cents to $2. Starved Herself to Death. Mrs. Mary Hall, of Lagrange, Ind., is dead after fasting for fifty days on account of advice given her by a doctor more than twenty-five years ago. At that time she was told that at some future time she would be afflicted with cancer on her nose which would cause her death. Since then she has been acting in accordance with that opinion rnd fifty days ago she teased eating, saying that the cancer would thus be driven away. Physicians could not change her mind. A post mortem examination revealed the fact that her organs were in perfect condition. ?tTl!Pis';Uer,,: m" trirr.mirgs - AieCOSANtf itmt 'i if r-i " 3tr!iPg5.hcr 000 BANDS . M ft IALY5 The

The Reciprocity Cloud. Relief for Cuba does not appear to be near at hand, now that the bill is with the senate. The situation does not seem to be less complicated than when the house was dealing with it. The committee appointed at the request of Senator Teller to investigate the sugar trust's relation to the proposed relief intends to get to work this week. .... The impression is that its researches will not be detrimental to the cause of reciprocity, but the investigation will mean delay. It will be suprising if congress has taken final action by the time the United States turns Cuba over the government. "Uncle Sam's" Birthplace Sold. The "Wilson homestead at Mason, New Hampshire, said to be the birthplace of the original "Uncle Sam,'" was sold at auction this week for $1,500. The purchaser was Capt. Orren A. Hamblet, of Washington. "Uucle Sara" was Samuel Wilson, the eldest of twelve children born on this farm. During the second war with England as the story goes, he and his brother Edward were contractors for government supplies at Troy, N Y. It was tj Wilson idea to label their beef and pork packings "U. S.," and as Samuel Wilson was generally called '-Uncle Sam" the army quickly referred to the supplies as "Uncle Sam's." This title quickly was applied to the government and after the war was used everywhere in that sense. Samuel Wilson died in Troy in 1854, aged eighty-eight. The farm was sold because of the death of the last member of the family. It was owned by a Wilson for 122 years.

Bryan Says No Surrender. Mr. Bryan is confident that the reorganizers of the democracy cannot win the leadership back again. Answering a question of a subscriber in the Commoner, he says: "It is not probable, because there is no reason to believe that the voters who fought for democratic principles in 1890 and and 189(5 and 1900 are willing to surrender those principles to conciliate men who showed bv their votes that they were nearer to the republican position than to the democratic. They can be defeated bv nominating for office those only who were faithful. If a man was against ti;e the ticket in 189Gand has really reformed, he will feel so ashamed of his past conduct that he will not ask to be rewarded over those who were faithful in the hour of trial. If he was against the platform in 1890 and has not reformed, lie cannot be trusted." Cent 10)

Wind Preserves Life. Professor Dexter, of the university of Illinois, has made a curious investigation to discover the relation of fresh air to vitality. He made his study in the city of New York, collecting and tabulating data to the number of 497,262. The results show the effect of calms on the records of the schools, the police court and the penitentiary. The absence ot wind above four miles an hour was considered a calm. Absence from schools during calm weather was found to be three times greater than absence during all other kinds of weather, including the extremes of cold and warm, wet and wind v. The cause of this is that children do not feel as well in calm weather and diseases peculiar to childhood are then most likely to develop. The criminal records show fewer assaults and less disorder and violence generally during calms than at other times. There are more policemen laid off, more errors made by clerks in banks, a larger number of deaths during calms than when the air is in motion. The conclusion drawn is that during calms the phenomena of life due to depleted vitality are excessive, while the phenomena due to excessive vitality are deficient, and this is in harmony with other and less exact observation.. The source of vitality and energy is oxygen and if that Is deficient we are less capable of both good and evil. A calm or very slowmoving air in a large city is deficient in oxygen, vitiated by the exhalations of thousands of men and animals. In a wind there is a fresh supply of unexhausted air moving in to take the place of the exhausted air. While there is nothing particularly new developed in this investigation, it makes clearer, perhaps, the appreciation of the value of wind as the earth's purifier, demonstrating anew the old statement that life is motion; that the currents of the air. like the currents of the sea or the currents of the blood, are the sign ot life; that stagnation is death.

Gets Off With Light Sentence. Glen France, the young Pine Grove, Van Buren county, Michigan, lad who pleaded guilty recently to killing his father some months ago, has been sen-! tenced to the state industrial school for boys at Lansing until he is 17 years of age. The crime to which the boy pleaded guilty was shooting his father, Caleh France, with a revolver j during an altercation between the older France and the boy's mother. The light sentence, it is said, is due largely to request of the prosecution. r-,' ,-3
