How the people of that city can pnt op with locusts and Tillman at the same time is a mystery. THE prominent politicians of the state, backed up by the Chicago and state press, are advocating L* T. Hoy, of Woodstock, as chairman of the re publican gtate central committee. For such a position it requires a clear head, quiet thinker and a shrewd poli tician of affable manners. Such a man is L. T. Hoy, and the republicans of Illinois will make no mistake in select ing him as their head. IN his sermon on "Amusements" at the Universalist church last Sunday, Rev. F. W. Miller struck the right chord, and we doubt if there was one in his congregation that did not agree with him in his ideas. He is a firm believer in the moderate indulgence of nearly all athletic sports and other ex- hilerating amusements, but when it comes to prize fighting, bull fighting, oock fighting or any of the sports that tend to cruelty, he draws a line that is unmistakable. CUBA STANDS ALONE. On Tuesday, May 30, Uncle Sam turned the reigns of government of the island of Cuba over to President Palma and his cabinet After years of suffer ing and bloodshed the Cuban people . have gained their independence and in a manner that should be gratifying indeed. 'Had they wrested their inde pendence from Spain without assistance it would have left the island in such a slate of destitution that life thereon Would have been unbearable. It is more than likely that revolutionary wan would have followed and the island again become the prey of Spain. As it is the United States has cared for Cuba as a mother looks after her off- spring. The simple fact that some of the prominent Cubans were jealous of the attentions of Uncle Sam is evidence that they needed a short rest from their weary years of trouble and time in which to learn how to govern them selves. " They are now cast adrift, but it is •ate to say that the Cuban ship of state will never sail beyond the shadow of that of the Unitad States. Long live Cuba! May she learn to love liberty and inherit the charitable character of her Uncle Sam. Habit* of the Wildcat - To say that a dog can "whip his iwelght In wildcats" is to pay about the lllgbest tribute to his strength, courage and activity, and there are very few doss that would care to earn such a tr ju.e if they understood all it implied. Not that a wildcat is of a specially ag gressive disposition. On the contrary, lie would sooner mind his own business any time than fight. So anxious is he as a rule to keep out of trouble that he has often been accused of cowardice, but he has on so many occasions given evidence of the most desperate cour age that it is doubtful if the accusation Is a fair one. When wounded or at bay, he Is perhaps as dangerous as any crea ture of his size. !> A Fillet of Beef. For a fillet of beef, cut two pounds Into round slices half an inch thick and sprinkle with pepper and salt. Fry In two ounces of butter seven minutes at the most and brush over each piece •rith glaze. Place a border of mashed potatoes on a dish, lay the fillets on it -frith alternate slices of baked tomato and the fried beef fat. Also have a piece of maltre d'hotel butter on each tfllet. Pill the center with nicely cook- ad vegetables and pour around a little good beef gravy. h-M: -Mv w f'-lM V fef" • INs finpc ere® tt Tata nm •DR; tUCEt * CREAM RAKING PQWDEtt Awardtd •tl Honors, World's Fair •!#•* VMI«U mi A* ART. Purklnje discovered a very simple and highly entertaining experiment by mean* of which the retina, with all its veins and blood vessels standing out in relief against it, can be thrown into the air before one's eyes. It is called the aborescent figure, to Its likeness to a many branched tree, and is produced in the following manner: In a dark room at night move a candle backward and forward before the eyes. After a few seconds the air will assume a reddish appearance,' and running over it in all directions may be seen the veins and blood vessel^ in bold relief, while to ward the center of the figure there rises up a dark trunk, from which the veins branch out on all sides. The trunk is visible where the optic nerve enters the eye, and this experi ment Is chiefly Interesting to the stu dent as proving that the parts of the retina which actually receive and pro duce the sensation of light must lie be hind the blood vessels, since these cast their shadow on to it and cen .be seen as clearly as any other object exter nally. They Didn't Interfere. Governor Bob Taylor of Tennessee had a heart as tender as a woman, and the way he pardoned out convicts was something awful. He was waited upon by a committee of the legislature, who very fiatly and in no uncertain way told him that this "wholesale pardon ing must stop." "Gov'ner Bob" looked at the commit tee, tapped a bell, asked for his pardon clerk and when he came said: "Make out pardons for every man in the penitentiary." The clerk bowed and withdrew. Then the governor looked at-the committee, who were staring as If they thought he was going mad. "Gentlemen," he said finally, "I am governor of Tennessee, and if this com mittee or any other ever again seeks to interfere with my constitutional right to pardon I'll sign every one of those pardons which the clerk is making out. Good morning."--Denver Times. PROBATE NEWS The House WM Shaky. When John Qulncy Adams was eighty years of age, he met in the streets of Boston an old friend, who shook his trembling hand and said, "Good morn ing, and how is John Qulncy Adams to day?' "Thank you," was the ex-president's answer. "John Qulncy Adams himself is well, sir; quite well, I thank you. But the house in which he lives at pres ent Is becoming dilapidated. It is tot tering upon its foundation. Time and the seasons have nearly destroyed it. Its roof 1B pretty wefl worn out. Its walls are much shattered, and it trem bles with every wind. The old tene ment is becoming almost uninhabita ble, and I think John Qulncy Adams will have to move out of it soon. But he himself is quite well, sir; quite well." With that the venerable sixth presi dent of the United States moved on with the aid of his staff. Hid Hli Whip. The late Lord Queensberry's famous protest at the performance of Tenny son's "Promise of May" had a quaint sequel. A society Journal, now deceased, made some scathing comments on the incident. Lord Queensberry armed himself with a heavy whip and called at the office, asking to see the editor. He was conducted to the presence of an elderly woman, who regarded him severely through her spectacles. Remembering the "Queensberry rules," be hid the horsewhip and mere ly remarked that he had called to talk the matter over. HI* Obligation. The Due de Roquelaure was far. very far, from being handsome. One day he met in the street an ugly Auvergnat who had some petition or memorial to present at Versailles. He immediately Introduced him to Louis XIV., remark ing that he was under a special obliga tion to the gentleman. The king grant ed the favor asked and then inquired of the duke what was this pressing ob ligation. "But for him, your majesty, I should be the ugliest man in your do minions." It Wasn't Lighted. A mother was calling the attention of her little boy to the moon, which was to be seen clearly but pallidly in the early afternoon. "Why, you can't see the moon in the daytime," replied the youngster. "Oh, yes, you can. There it is over the trees." The little fellow looked hard and had to admit the fact that be saw it, but be added, " Taln't lighted, anyhow." The Parti nv of the Way. He (who parts his hair in the middle) --I will never marry a woman who parts her hair on the side. She (who parts her hair on the side)-- And. I can assure you that I will never marry a man who parts his hair in the middle. (Silence.) He--We may as well part forever then. HI* Chance. Wickers--I don't know what is the matter with me. My memory is get ting so treacherous that I cannot trust it from one week to the next. Vickers--Is that so? I say, can you lend me $10 for about thirty days? Poor Choice.

To teach a parrot to talk it is never necessary to place the poor bird in a darkened room or to starve him. Com mon sense would suggest that he should be made as happy as possible In his surroundings. Give him good food--hemp, maize, oats, biscuit. As a slice of fruit is always beneficial, a bit of apple, of pear, of banana or of carrot will do very well. Also see that your pet has pure drinking water, a large cage, some soft wood to gnaw, with plenty of coarse grit on the floor of the cage, for he needs the small stones to aid his digestion. A parrot in those comfortable circumstances may then be left alone in a room while his teacher conceals himself in another. The teacher, who should be heard, but not seen, should repeat, with infinite patience, over and over again the word or words he wishes his pet to learn. The female parrots do not talk--the fe male of the song birds, it should be re membered, Is not a singer--so that ef forts of education in that line are quite thrown away.--Our Animal Friends. Cicero. Cardinal Newman was a master In the art of writing English. In one of his published letters he expressed the following opinion: "As to patterns for Imitation, the only master of style I ever had is Cicero. I think I owe a great deal to him and, so far as I know, to no one else." Bishop Wordsworth of St. Andrews, another • masterly writer of English, says in his autobiography: "So far as I have derived benefit from any one in the matter of compo sition It has been from Cicero. 1 do not underrate the advantage of a com bined study of authors such as Addi son, Swift, Bollngbroke, Johnson, Burke, Hume, Gibbon, Macaulay and, I may add. Horace Walpole, but I must repeat that I believe I got more good, not only in writing Latin, but for writing English, from reading Cicero and learning him by heart th«n from any other source."

Thut It may have the entire Cefa to Itself and escape the keen competition of hosts of tropical relatives for the nectar and minute Insects in the deep tubed brilliant flowers that please him best that Jeweled atom, tbe ruby throat ed humming bird, sole representative of his family east of the Mississippi, trav els from Central America or beyond to Labrador and back again every sum mer of ltd Incessantly active little life.
