The Cuban Sftuntloii.
The little rumpus In the Cuban coil
mens Inspired by the beltbf that Presl- i
(lout Gomez's belntod veto of the mu
lteity bill was demanded by the United
States goveriiuieut Is uot to be regard
ed as threatening. It Is, In fact, a
hopeful sign of Cuba's growing appre
ciation of Its lndc|K>ndence.
Independent the little republic cer
tnluly Is, except that Its legislator*
Jiust uot be |K?riil 1 1 1 etl to paws foolish
10(1 wicked laws which would destroy
Its credit with the world, for which the
United States stands sponsor by the.
terms of the treaty and Indeed by a
provision of the Cuban constitution.
The Cuban congress will probably, aft
er a little delay, decide to repeal the
amnesty act, Innsmuch .is there Is
some doubt whether the veto of Presi
dent Gomez Is sutllclent under the con
stitution, as he had signed the bill.
But the worst Is over. The rest will
all be tuik.
A good majority of tho Ctiban elec
tors chose General Menoenl, a broad
minded .man" f>f imblemlshed repute, to
administer the affairs of their country
lu the next four'.venrs. It Is certainly
not their wish that he should enter
upon his duties hampered as the am
nesty law would hamiier him. There
fore it Is safe to assume that the ma
jority does not favor the law and does
not resent the exercise by the Wash
ington government of Its right to de
mand the law'* repeal.
A moving picture man In Chicago
estimates that the American people'
si>eml ),000 a day on moving picture
shows and that 5,000.000 persons a day
go to see tlieiii and each person stays*
an hour on the average. We leave the
mathematicians to tlnd out how much
more wealthy and unhappy the coun
try would be In a decade If the nickels
all went Into the savings bank and the
time mt<> tin- l' patch.
A woman who wrote In her will
abont her husband. "Ue ilever under
stand my' nobility of heart; 1 forgive
him: 1 beg God to forgive hlin also,"
forgot how It would sound when the
will was read. No wonder she died
far from home, an alien In a strange
laud, unoccupied n:id umllvorced.
It Is Interesting to note that Colonel
Kosterlltsky commands lluerta - forces
at Nogales. but It would be more In
teresting to flud out where he got that
name.
There seems to be some doubt wheth
er the Mexican ls>rder is an Imaginary
or a tiring line.
The Ideal Wife.
A California man who has studied
deeply on the subject has formulated
the following list of characteristics
that are desirable In the woman be
would marry:
The IJeal woman for n wlfo ahoulil have
the?o guallflcatlons: Tho voice of Mclba,
the talent of Piiderewskl, the llgtire of
Venui, tho Kraco <J ; ? ayft>h. the vivacity
of a coryphee, eyes like tho soft glow of
a moonlit eve. an uliibast<T-llke complex
ton, the virtues of a nun. the churra of
Cleopatra, the meoknuns of Moees, tho pa
tience of Job. the forbearance of 1-uz
anis, the leal of n Trojan, tho constancy
of Caesai's wlfer th? capabilities of
charwoman, the purse of Hetty tirven and
hair of her own.
One naturally wonders where the
masculine paragon will be found who
deserves such a wife as tho IdenI wo
man should make. What sort of voice,
bank account, temper, nocturnal habits
aud whiskers should lie have? And If
he were such an ideal himself would It
be right that he should marry such an
ideal wife? Would it not be wasting
too much'vlrtue on one family?
Where Is the Ideal woman? you ask.
She Is everywhere. She Is the woman
every man marries. At least he thinks
she Is. Ills mind may suffer u change
later, but when he leads her to the al
tar he Is convinced that she possesses
all the desirable traits listed by the
hopeful Callforulan and a few others
detected by the fond lover and unseen
?by others.
What Is the use of prosecuting tho
trusts? They spring up faster than
they can be dissolved. The latest Is a
$15,000,000 combination described ns
controlling "the entire burlesque busi
ness of this country and Canada." Tho
.baseball trust has been roundly de
nounced In congress not only ns a com
mercial trust, but ns a concern dealing
lu human beings, and now the public
appetite for burlesque theatricals Is to
be supplied by a .single source.

A Protection
By SADIE OLCOTT
"Colonel Eidriffgo."
??Well?"
"1 think I Hlinll have to leavo the
fort. There nro too many young ofli
cerH hero who hnve nothing to do hut
flirt, and they niuko a girl's. Ilfo Intol
??Hut you don't havo to flirt with
them If you don't wish to do so. '
?They are so persistent There's Mr.
Wheeler, Just out of West Point with
nothing but Ills pay as second lleuten
init and nothing with which to occopy
himself but to cultlvato his Incipient
mustache. Ho Ihib been bothering mo
to become engaged to him. 1 think
yon as commandant of the post,
Hould Issue an order against flirting."
"And if the penalty of tbo order Is
transgressed?"
"Twelve hours In the guardhouse.
"Very well. Consldor the order Is
sued. <Jo to tho guardhouse."
??I? I aui not flirting. I assuro you
I'm In earnest"
She looked at the colonel, a hand
some bachelor of forty, with a pair of
beautiful eyes In a way that puzzled
"1 have a mind to order you out of
the garrison." he said. "You havo be
witched these young officers so us to
render thetn useless ns soldiers, and I
shall get no service out of them till
yon are gone."
"Do sit down and let us talk It over.
I think I prove to you that 1 am
not a flirt"
'"Well, go on."
?Seriously. Mr. Wheclor must be
headed oft or"?
"lle'll blow out tils brains?"
"How could he do thatwtien"?
"lie basu't any?"
"Listen to tne. I see a way to settle
the matter with hlm"
"And the rest of them?"
""Will you please cease to Interrupt
me?"
"Proceed."
"When a girl Is once engaged Hbe Is
let alono. Now, I wish to be en
"Oh. you dol For bow long?"
??That depends. My Orst object Is to
gi t rid of this clumor. 1 cau't marry
nil these young men, aud If I engage
ulf to ODe of them all the rest will
quarrel over the matter. Now, If I en
self to their commanding offl
er It will bo very different. No otio
..f theiu will have been preferred to
(lie other"
??What a brain you have In that pret
t* Ij.-:k1 of yours! Are you sure they'll
not all mutiny?"
"I'm at your service. But I warn
you you may And It harder to get rid
of ine than Wheeler."
"Oh, I'm not afraid of that"
"Yon mean. I suppose, that being an
( Id fogy I'll do for a buffer and when
no longer needed will be retired."
"You go too fast It will be time
enough to talk nbout crossing a bridge
wheu we get to It"
"Will you nuuounce our engage
ment ?"
"There you are again? trying to cross
a bridge we haven't reached."
"But 1 thought you said you wished
to be engaged to mo for protection.
What protection will It be If wo keep
the engagement a secret?"
"What does au engagement In
volve?"
"Kissing privileges."
"There Is something that comes be
fore that"
"What? Eh. oh. 1 see? a proposal.'
"Will you do me the honor to bo my
wife?" ' n
"Not on sncb a proposal as thnt"
"What kind ?f a proposal would you
like?"
"One with some feeling In It"
"llavlng received n great many of
them, perhaps yon will tell tue the
most attractive way to proceed."
"The suitor, slttlug beside the lady
as you are slttlug. takes her left hand
in bis."
Tho colonel did as Instructed, using
Ills right band.
"Not that hunu; tno otner:'
"Why bo?"
"The right linnd must bo free."
Tho coloncl used bis left band.
"Then be tells bis story lu bis own
way."
"You are the loveliest llttlo humbug
in the world. I love you desperately
and ligve loved you desperately ever
since you enme to the garrison, but 1
never dreamed that you would consid
er an old fellow like mo for a moment,
especially when"?
"Now you see why you should keep
your right hmid free," she Interrupted
as he placed It on ber waist
"All these young chaps are mad about
you."
"That's the way I supposed you felt
about It Now the prlvllogo you spoke
? f comes In."
The colonel took advantago of tho
privilege and the young lady remark
ed that that was not essential to the
original plan, whereupon the colonel
exclaimed, "Original plan be hanged!"
Tho colonel was right about the mu
tiny. save that It was a social mutiny
only. Half a dozen subalterns ground
their teeth and wondered what u girl
could see In a man old enough to be
her father. dowever, the lady's en
gagement to tho commandant served
as ample protection even from Mr.
Wheeler, though be was so badly hit
that be put In an application for trans
fer.
