A Problem in Porto Rico.
The land question is destined to prove
a perplexing one in our new possession of
i'orio Rico. Conditions there are similar
to those prevailing in Ireland. Absentee
landlords own most tracts of choicest land
on the island. These Spanish owners here
tofore have proved a serious tax upon the
productive energies of the Porto Rican
people.
Now, that these people are coming into
freedom, it is but natural that they will
display impatience at the old conditions.
Something must be done. The problem is
one not easy of solution. Os course, there
will be members of congress who will sug
g< st confiscation. This would prove a
high-handed proceeding and unwarranted
by the rub sos international law. Re that
ac ft may, a change must come. As private
property is subject to condemnation for
public use, on payment of just compensa
tion, It can be alleged (and rightfully, too)
that in order to secure the peace and hap
pinen of the island, all lands owned by
absentees shall be sold at auction. This is
a tentative solution, and when it is time
to take the bull by the horns, other and
Ixdter ways out of the dilemma may be at
hand.
The bear that walks like a man is keep
ing his good eye these days on that part
of the world's map marked “Fashoda.”
Government Ownership.
A splendid opportunity is now awaiting
those who favor government ownership
and ojH'ratlon of telegraph lines, to dem
onstrate the valuation of their views. All
the telegraph lines in Porto Rico are now
under control of the war department. Com
mercial messages are being transmitted
just as promptly as they would be if
handled by a private company. Every
thing is working smoothly, and satisfac
torily. No objection has been entered to
the schedule of charges.
The reason for the government's hand
ling of the wires on the Island is found in
the two words, "military necessity.” Os
course, when the war department feels
that the necessity no longer exists, it will
relinquish control of the lines. Meanwhile,
however, the advocates of government
ownership can secure valuable data in
favor of their contention.
Spain undertook to pay its Cuban army
in promissory notes, and a riot was threat
ened. The Spanish soldier seems to have
more than a faint notion of Spanish honor.
Missionary Work in Cuba.
On reading the cables from I’aris, out
lining the doings of th«* peace conference—
or. more accurately, the non-doings of
that body, and then turning to a perusal
of League Correspondent King's letters
from Cuba, one must conclude that this
procrastination is causing n<H>dless suffer
ing and death on the afflicted island.
Moreover, these delays render more dif
ficult the problems which await solution
by the United States government.
It will necessitate the exercise of the
highest degree of tact in handling the
Cubans. And it will be found, when the
r< al work of pacification shall be begun,
that tact must be harnessed with firmness’
The Cuban patriot y* not the ideal one. In
the armies of Gomez and Garcia one might
call the roll until the stare melted away
before he could fill a company with men
like those who served under George Wash
ington.
1 lu re Is an Incalculable amount of mis
sionary work for Americans to perform in
Cuba. Cuban oppression and Cuban cruel
ty shall not replace Spanish despotism.
To this the honor of the American republic
is bound.
It is now Spain's turn to have a cabinet
erir-is. Jealous of the prestige gained by
Irtnce by the wholesale resignation of her
cabinet. General Correa, Spain's minister
of war. hastened to the Queen Regent to
,w ,lone t 0 preserve Spanish
national honor.
WhatlMean These British Moves?
n j* 1 ’ 13 fair in ,ove and war.' John
Bull, it seems, makes the adage th? crite
rion ot hte actions in antebellum days It
to look as if the horned animal
'was aft.sr the boa- and not chasing the
Gallic rocster. This intelligence will prove
■hurtful to the pride of many correspon
dents. diplomats and prophets. The per
sistency displayed by the British admirai
y in war preparations, even on the heels
of Parisian advices, to the effect that Mar
chand would be recalled, is now receiving
its full analytical value. Now the British
■war ships are massed in the port of Wei
dlai-AVei, instead of steaming at full
Bj»eed to some French dependency, the
"shrewd observer" to whom the 'corres
pondent anonymously refers is like a ship
at s<xi without a compass.
Two corrollarles are fairly deducible
from this mobilization of war vessels in
th« Alien., (a) England fears a war with
Russia, or (b) England knows that Rus-
Bia is an oily of Franco.
I’ownee county, Okla., has a campaign
novelty. Father, mother and son are run
ning against each other for office. The
Democratic-Populist candidate for Public
'eigher is W. M. Obana®, the Repullcan
• indidate for the same office is W T
Obanan. son of the Democratic-Populist
candidate, and now the middle-of-the
ro.idere have nominated Mrs. Obanan, the
wife of the ivemocratic-Populist candidate,
for Public Weigher. Consequently, who
ever wins, the office will be in the Oba
can family.
A Chicago Humorist.
iPresident Bowen, of the Chicago City
Railway Company, is a humorist. His
reputation was made in a day. He can say
" ith Byron, that he woke up one morning
nnd found himself famous. The para
wraphists of the Windy City have hailed
him as a brother. The wits of the Press
* lub have entered his name for member
ship in their sacred society. In short
Brown is a "bird.”
The big city on the lake is 'having an
epidemic of influenza. Doctors are thriv
ing. while citizens fracture the second
commandment. This has been brought on
by the bidaily shivers in 'Humorist Bow
en's refrigerator coaches. Complaints were
laughed at. Though under his charter and
under the law* Bowen should heat his cars
when the thermometer signals, he has de
clined to do so.
But while this chief of a street railway
monopoly refuses to give the shivering
Chicagoans any heat, he has donated
plenty of advice. And his advice is to
take ice gold baths every morning before
breakfast. Then you will not take cold in
a moving ice box at five cents per cold.
Choicago smiles grimley. She has enter
tained a humorist unawares.
The Emperor of China is merely work
ing for a record. Kuang Hsu has heard
all about the Hon. Bill Dalton, who met
violent death daily for a period of four
years, and he is anxious to take the cham
pionship belt to China.
Tesla, the Marvel.
Nikola Tesla, the electrical genius,
claims to have invented a process by
which electricity at high pressure may be
transmitted through space, without wir«.
for thousands of miles. The Electric Re
view illustrates Tesla's principle and com
ments upon the novel and startling idea
as follows:
"Treia now proposes to transmit, with
out the use of any wires, through the nat
ural media —the earth and the airgreat
amounts of power to distances ot thou
sands of miles. This will appear a dream
—a tale from the ‘Arabian Nights.’ But
the extraordinary discoveries Tesla has
made during a number of years of inces
sant labor Which are authoritatively de
scribed in our present issue, make it evi
dent that his work in this field has passed
a stage of laboratory experiment and is
ready for a practical test on an industrial
scale. The success of his efforts means
that power from such sources as Niagara
will become available in any part of the
world, regardless of distance.”
The war Investigation commission came
across an exceedingly frank witness at
Anniston, Ala. His name is Charles F.
King; he holds the rank of Major, and is
the surgeon of th a Fourth Wisconsin reg
iment. Asked if the men ever complained
to him regarding the food. ,Dr. King re
plied that they had, and, being asked:
"What did you tell them?” fee said: "I
told them to go to the devil and eat what
they had.” General Wilson, of the com
mission, ventured to remark that the reply
was exceedingly improper, and the wit
ness was dismissed.
OLD BAILEY DOOMED.
Tlr I'amoni Criminal Landmark of
London la to Ee Ilemoved-
Alrnost every one has heard of the jail
of Newgate and the Old Bailey sessions
house in London. Novelists have told of
them and travelers have made a point of
seeing them, and now the historic old
buildings are to bo pulled down to admit
of the building of a grand new sessions
house on the ground they now occupy.
Newgate marks the site of an entrance
into a Roman city. The gate was made
in the west side of the later city wall. In
William the Conqueror’s time a gate
known as “chamberlain,” or the “Cham
berlain's gate,” stood across the street be
tween Warwick lane and the present pris
on. That gate, rebuilt in the reign of
Henry II or his successor, was in the reign
of Henry 111 in common use as a prison.
In the year 1400 Henry IV committed it
by charter to the care of the corporation
Sir Richard Whittington, moved by the
ruinous state of the fabric and the terrible
state of the jail, instructed his executor?
to rebuild the gate, which was done upon
the customary plan.
After undergoing an addition, repairs
and refronting at various periods the old
building gave way to new ones designed
by George Dance, It. A., the first stone of
which was laid by Lord Mayor Beckford
on May 31, 1770. Before they were finished
they wore pillaged and burned on .lune fi
and 7, 1780, by the “no popery’’ rioters.
Afterward a sum of £30,000 was devoted
to repairing and so forth. On the ope'.,
ing of Whitecross street prison, in 1815,
Newgate ceased to lie used for debtors, and
since 1882 it has been used only for prison ■
ers awaiting trial during sessions and for
►hose condemned to death.
The present sessions house, next to the
jail, consists of two courts, the old and
the new. The first mentioned is for the
more serious cases. It is lighted from the
north and has a gloomy and sinister as
pect. The first sessions house was that of
Stowe’s time, and, singular to say, the
trial court was open to the street, the back
looking northward. It was succeeded by a
courthouse erected in 1773 and destroyed
in the “no popery’’ riots above alluded to.
but. rebuilt and enlarged In 1809 by the
addition of the site of old Surgeons’ hall,
whore the bodies of malefactors wore tak
?n for dissection immediately after execu
tion.
The new sessions house will be rebuilt
from plans prepared by Mr. Andrew Mur
ray, the city surveyor, and will bo carried
out at an estimated cost of £130,000.

Philippine Island Eagles.
The insurrection in the Philippine is
lands. now followed by the attack on Ma
nila by the United States fleet, has brought
to a close a very interesting set of expedi
tions to explore the animal life of this very
little known archipelago, says a writer in
Country Life Illustrate. These were con
ducted by Mr. John Whitehead, and
among the results of his labors was the
discovery in 1896 of the largest eagle in
the world. It was shot on the island of
Samar, one of the Philippines, where it
lives above the level of the enormous for
est, consisting of trees 80 yards high, and
feeds on monkeys. It is larger than the
golden eagle, more powerful than the harpy
eagle and has a beak higher, deeper and
more formidable than that of any other
raptorial bird. It weighs from 16 pounds
to 20 pounds, while the average weight of
a golden eagle is only 12 pounds.
The only full grown specimen of the
great forest eagle obtained there is in the
Museum of Natural History at South Ken
sington. It was disabled by a single buck
shot in the neck and ultimately taken down
fropi the tree to which it clung by a native
hunter. Its claws are as formidable as its
beak and resemble those of the harpy eagle.
Wanted to Begin a Record.
An anecdote ho told me with keen relish
was of two “bad men’’ who “shot it out.”
with Winchester rifles on the main street
of Medora. One of them fell with a bullet
in his hip, his rifle dropping out of reach.
His antagonist was aiming for the coup
de grace when he felt a touch on his arm.
Looking round, he saw a meek and ven
erable old person called “Uncle Billy,”
who gained his livelihood by sweeping
out a saloon, cleaning the cuspidors and
serving an occasional drink.
“Jake,” said the old man imploringly,
‘let mo finish him. I never killed a man
