The man who will raise the Cuban flag over Havana when the island is liberated from Spanish role has al ready been selected. This is Juan Ardao, who has been conspiring against the Spanish government lor fifty-five years snd is dow nearly 90. He is living io Tampa at present, andj he has the distinction el being the first man who bled in endeavoring to free Cuba in the first ineurtection of 1880. UL UUHHHS Bills ol lading are usually made out In triplicate, one copy for the consign* or, one for the consignee and one for the carrier. Ths new stamp tax law provides that each bill of lading and duplicate thereof shall be stamped. Thus it appears that for every ship ment of goods there must' be paid a double or triple stamp tax, according to the number of copies made of the bill of ladihg. Will the carriers pay the tax? The probabilities are that, like moot ol the other corporations, they will kindly permit their customers to put on the stamps. .The appointment of Col. J. Flour noy Crook, edjtor-in-cbief of the Co lumbus Enquirer-Sun, as second lieu tenant in Capt. Van Riper’s company of the Third regiment, will remove from the ranksol Georgia journalism one ol its brightest and most capacita ted writers. Col. Crook, who is, by the way, an Alabamian by birth, is a son of Hon. James F. Crook, president of the Alabama state railroad com mission, and is a young man of more than ordinary worth and merit, and a writer of no small means, possessing all the qualities that mate op a mau of clear, concise aßd conservative views on all national and municipal questions of importance. The superiority of smokeless powder over the old kind was freshly illustrat ed in the fifst fight participated in by our men in Cuba. The Spaniards were armed with Mauser rifles, which burn smokeless powder, while many of the Americans used Springfield rifles. The Spanish guns made but little noise and no smoke, hence it was very difficult for the Americans to locate the places from which their bullets came. Ou the other hand, the loud report and the smoke from the Ameri can guns showed the enemy plainly where the Americavs were. The American forces should be provided with smokeless powder at the very earliest practicable moment. Mr. David H. King’s beautiful resi dence on Jekyl Island is not to be used a? a military hospital, after all. The tender of the property to the gov ernment has been withdrawn. Other members us the millionaires’ club which owns the island objected, and Mr. King felt bound to respect their wishes. The Jekyl Islanders were quick to ask the government for pro tection against the enemy. They wanted big guns planted in the island, and soldiers sent there to handle them. They have no objection to soldiers on the island, so long as they are well and strong, and capable of defending them ; but they draw the line at maimed or sick soldiers.

Bui Hobson's was not an ordinary performance. It was rare, and exalted, both in conception and* in execution It is no exaggeration to call it an act of surpassing heroism, and its doer a hero worthy ol special recognition. There ought to be no delay in doing wbat Congress can properly do to mark the nation’s sense of appreciation of Hobson’s deed As I for tbe more substantial reward, that can, perhaps, well wail until the work to which he so gallantly and effective |y contributed is finished, when be can let it be known what be would like to have. no fear that the mod est fellow will esk too much, nor that the nation will begrudge granting whatever is “Hobson’s choice.’’ Hot Water in Arizona Wells. The wells fn parts of Arisons have recently become producers of hot wa ter, and apprehension is fell by many of the reaiden’ls of the region affected that they are about to become partici pants in a grand volcanic drama. In some outlie wells the temperature of the wellwater rose twenty degrees in a single night In u few the phe nomenon disappeared soon after its appearance In a majority of r cases, however, the wells fairly steatn from their newly acquired heat. The first known of this carious state of affairs was a report that the wells at Maricopa on the Southern Pacific railroad, 30 miles south of Phceoix> had suddenly become hot. It was fogr days thereafter that the phenomenon first was noticed a dozen I miles west of that city. A test at one well showed n temperature ol neir y 100 degrees. No difference is noted in wells in (he immediate vicinity of Phoenix The line of subterranean heat wave follows the general direction of the Sierra Estrella mountains, a volcanic chain lying immediately south of the Gila river. Thence it appears to con tinue on in the direction of the Har qua Hala mountains, near which are a number of large and modern volcanic cones and hills or drifted volcanic air. Further to the east the lava flows are so geologically modern as to have i overwhelmed in a number of places tbe cliff dwellings of the ancients.— Omaha Bee. ; [mothers, I READ THIS! “ 1: E Do Yon Want to Know the . : Best Remedy for s Flatulent Colic, Dysentery, Nausea, Coughs, • | Cholera Infantum, • s Teething Children, = - = Cholera Morbus, ! k | Pains, Griping, = t z And All Diseases of the . : Stomach and Bowels? am mg = II > ■ H T I1 1 ■ Vll'l9 SSBMfitSfemaKßEßsi I IS THE STANDARD.
