One day before he had floated over to the shores of the Oern of the Antilles the Colonel of his regiment called him into his tent for the purpose of talking to him like a father, as he had known him for years. "Ndw, ]ook here, John," said the Colouel kindly, "what do you mean by this sort of thing?" "1 mean to quit, Colonel," he responded.We want them to move. We have applied the right inducements.

Store [New York World.J It seems that the young woman who j kissed and was kissed i>v Lieut, llobson : has a brother. This brother has telegraphed her a "severe reprimand" and has said that he is greatly shocked that i his sister should ' allow her patriotism to | carry her away." The. young man is evideutly out of 1 harmony with the spirit of his country, j where some seventy million people of j both sexes and all ages are allowing their I patriotism to carry them away, are striving by every means in their power to express appreciation of the brave men who in winning glory and honor for themselves have made the name of their couutrv shine with a lustre that is dazzling the whole world. Further, this young man is of so small and narrow a mind that he cannot grasp 'what every one else Hps grasped- that the kiss his sister gave Hobson was symbolic and vicarious and in no sense personal, just as was the acknowledgment of the gift by the hero of the Merrimac. The Long Beach Hotel kiss is immortal. It has resounded through the country. It has echoed in every American heart. It expressed the sentiments of a nation. The young man, who is judging it by the canons of convention and by the precepts of ordinary propriety, is making himself rediculous. He owes his generous and patriotic sister an bumble a'-fi - °«y. _ ( >tflT6- just "Von have said that a million time*. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.

It was this that moved us to t ike up the cause of Cuba; it is this that forbids our desertion of the cause of the Asiatic group. Spunisit cruelties and barbarities-of the most revolting character have marked the Government of those islands. Professor Worcester's calm recital in our columns of things lie heard and saw are as moving as Senator Proctor's account of Spanish atrocities iu Cuba, which drove our nation to war. If we cannot accept any Spanish guaranty of good Government for Cuba, how can we accept it for the Philippines ? The President cannot, must not agree to abandon the oppressed people across the . Pacific. If he should make any such ' agreement, the nation would cry out' against it and the Senate would reject it. I Street car flire paid from and to Punxsutawncy. "It doesn't matter what he happens to be doing, he's always ready to suspend operation for breakfast."—Chicago News. "So you call your dog Dewey, do you ?

It is An English Opinion of A in erica's Duty. I From the London Spectator.) III our opinion, the Government at Washington will not lie doing their duty to the people of the Union unless they insist upon two principles : First, that Spanish rule shall cease absolutely and forever in Cuba, in the Fhilipines, and In l'orto Rico ; and, secondly, that America, and America alone, shall decide what is to be the ultimate fate of the former possessions of Spain. Unless these principles are insisted on absolutely, America may find that the war, instead of having been a blessing to the Inhabitants of the Spanish colonies, has turned ont a curse, and instead of a movement in the direction of humanity and civilization, an actual step backward. rOliicaxo Tribune.] A man of businesslike aspect invaded a downtown shoe shop yesterday morning and said : "I see you claim to do invisible patching. Cau you put an invisible patch on this hhoe ?" "Yes, sir" replied the proprietor. "Sure? I don't \sant it done unless you can, t>ecause this is one of my swell shotts and I don't want it to show." "If I don't put an invisible patch on it, I won't charge you anything for the job." "All right,go ahead." The shoemaker took the shoe, and in about 15 minutes brought it back to him neatly repaired. "H'm !" enjaculated the customer. "I think the bargain was that if you didn't put an invisible patch on it you wouldn't charge anything, wasn't it?" "That's right." "This is the patch, isn't It ?" "Yes." "Well, it's perfectly visible. What you meant was, I presume, that you could make the evidences of its being a patch invisible, but yon ought to have said so. A bargain's a bargain this be a lesson to you. Good morn " "Holdon. lean fix that all right," said the shoemaker. lie took the shoe again, ran a sharp knife under one edge of the patch, applied a pair of sharp nippers, dexterously ripped it off, threw it behind a woik bench and handed the shoe back again. "There," he said, "is your shoe, and the patch, as you'll notice, isn't visible now. I*et this be a lesson to you. Good xnor Oh, he's gone!''—Chicago Tribune. , w m r ■ J r
