The Waite family at Waverly, Mo.,

in tbe family and tbe smallest ia a
girl 0 feet 3 inches. This Amazon ia
a dwarf by the aide of her brolhera,
one of whom stands 7 feel 8 incbea in
hie stockings. If we could only get
up a regiment like thia giant, even

Four hundred years ago Spain sent
her adventurers to tbe new world to
discover unknown territory and win
their oonntry new glory. She has
been doing exactly thqeame thing for
the last few months, and her present
discoveries are likely to be quite as
useful to the rest of Europe as were
those of the fifteenth century. Four
or five European nations have been
wondering for some time whether it
would be safe to challenge us to fight*
They know now.— Washington Times.
A now method of preserving wood
from decay, known as the Haskin pro
cess, is being tried on a large scale in
England. Instead of withdrawing
the sap and injecting creosote or some
other antiseptic substance, as is us
ually done, Mr. Haskin submits the
wood to superheated air, under a
pressor* of fourteen atmospheres. By
this process, it is averred, the sap is
chemically changed into a powerful
antiseptic mixture, which, by consoli
dating with the fiber, strengthens as
well as preserves the wood.
The Cuban idea is that Uncle Sam
is to pay all the bills and do alj the
fighting, and let the Cuban army loot
at will and the Cuban junta fill all tbe
offices. Nothing more typically Span
ish than this Cuban conduct and talk
could be imagined. It is quite as
Spanish as if it bad been all in Spain,
and tbe actors native and to the man
ner born. The Cabans do honor to
their forbears. The descendant is true
to tbe traditionary character of bis
ancestors
The Philippine Question-
*Q>e control of the Philippine* as a
dependency to be ruled from Wash'
ington is so foreign to the general
epirit and object of our Union that it
ie likely to exercise a moat deleterious
influence upon our politics; and it has
not been shown that their possession
woold be likely to cast any considera
ble benefit of any kind upon the peo
ple of this country. We are not under
such obligations to the hordes of Agui
naldo, or to the other inhabitants of
the islands, aa to call for a contin
uance of the war with Spain, and the
danger of embroilment with other Eu
ropean powers, and the assumption of
a permanent burden io the shape of
the governing of them. A proposition
to Spain can be devised, we believe,
which shall plainly indicate that we
do not propose asking, in the final
terms of peace, for possession of the
Philippine Weeds, but that we do in*
tend to insist upon effective guaran
tees of humanity and improvement
Then, if fipain rejects our overtures,
it will be time to think of assuming
the task of taking the Philippines and
shouldering the responsibility of Keep
ing the* in order after we have got
them.—Baltimore News.
The official records show that Pri
vate Hurveg Atkins, of the Second
Massachusetts Regiment, al Santiago,
died from nostalgia. Private Atkins*
case is tbe first of this sickness that
has proved fatsl during the present
war, so far as the authorities know.
Tbe doctors say that nostalgia, or
homesickness, Is more fatal than yel
low fever, when one has a well devel
oped case of it. For tbe fever there
are remedies which may prove rff tk
tive, while for tbe homesickness rhe
only renpedy is to send tbe soffrrer
home, which ia often not possible in
tbe army When a sufferer from nos
talgia has s confirmed case, and it i«
not possible to send him home, all that
ean be done ia to make death as easy
as possible It is said that the noma
ber of deaths during tbe civil war
from this disease was very large, com
paratively speaking.
