Bonaventura Fortogalloexzyutotniosel
was recently fined one dollar in a New
York police court. The sentence was
very much out of proportion to the
name. _______
Those enterprising cities where the
population figures have not come up
to expectations are in position to sym-
pathize with Mr. Bryan's 1896 predic-
tions.
Mr. Bryan's speech of acceptance,
token In connection with the plank h
forced in the Kansas City platform,
entitles him to be known us the Em
peror of Evasion.
.Assailing Colon.-1 Roosevelt's war
record in the interest of Mr. Bryan
will be sure to produce a boomertanglc
effect. It will be recalled that Mr.
Bryan started out to acquire a war
record.
The pressure of public sentiment has
compelled the New York police to clos
some of the most notorious dives in the
city. Thus is Tamany's source of rev-
enue for campaign purpo.-es somewhat
contracted.
The Illinois Railway cohipany has
given Its employes notice of an nddi
tlonal advance of ten per cent in th« :
wages. This is u pleasing exhibition I democratic .succe
of advancement without the request ol
an advance.
3 25 1"£ his erroneous views
1 "5 I mid In a 1 places.
•r,° J 'Mr. Bryan unqualifiedly declared, at
r! Indianapolis, as follows:
"if elected, I shall convene congress
In extraordinary session is soon as In-
augurated, and recommend an Imme-
diate declaration of the nation's pur-
pose—first, to establish a : .able form of
government in the Philippine Islands,
Just as we are now establishing a
stable form of government in Cuba;
second, to give Independent >' to tli" Ml-
ipinos, Just as we have promised t
Pive indenedence to Cuba; third, to
protect the Filipinos from outside in-
terference while they work out their
destiny, just as we have pr.,t. < t. d the
republics of Central and South Amer-
ica. and are by the iM««nroe doctrine
pledged to protect Cuba."—Mr. Bryan's
speech of aceeptance.
This Is plain enough. Mr P.ryan may
never be president—Ills views being
entirely too un-American—but he
leaves no doubt ;iM to his i olley if, un-
fortunately he should be called upon to
fill this high estate.
There Is but one construction that
an be placed on the above (1<«lai ..
tlon of Intentions by the democratic
nominee and that Is It means the wlth-
awal of the American troops from
e Philippines, and the abjeot surren-
der of all authority over and control
of these islands. This is the first prop-
osition.
Now this might not hurt anything
but national pride, which would natur-
Uy bo humiliated by a step that
ould stultify the good name of the
United States among the nations of the
rth but the next clause of Mr. P.ry-
t's remarkable declaration, "to guard
the islands from molestation of . other
nations," means more than Is apparent
the surface. It means International
complications that would lead to grave
and serious results.
For Instance, by the solemn terms and
provisions of the treaty of Paris, for-
mulated by accredited representatives
f this country, and ratified by the
United (States senate, the maintenance
of law and order in these Islands de-
volves on the United States. If Mr.
Bryan's declaration means anything,
it means the surrender of all power to
maintain good order in the Philippines
the natives, to have no voice in pro-
ting life and property there, and yet
to pledge this country to maintain a
big fieet of war ships in Philippine
waters to prevent German. Frame,
Russia or Japan from interfering with
Aguinaldo or his methods of managng
the Islands.
Would not this be a situation for
Uncle Sam? It Is no use to say that
Bryan's views do not contemplate the
removal of the troops. President Me-
Klnley had exhausted every known
means to secure a peaceful solution of
the Philippine question, and only re-
sorted to arms when attacked by the
treacherous natives, and he now* has
only one present view, namely, a'e-
#toration of peace and order and the
safety of life and property. Mr. Bryan
may have other means of p i. ifying the
insurgents,—he probably has, as Aguin-
aldo created the democratic paramount
Issue, und would not be so ungrateful
as to rebel against his chief in case of
ratic .success—but 1
Is still lrr the hands of the home sec-
retary, Sir Mathew White Ridley, and
Mis. May brick's friends are hopeful
that when the answer cornea it will be
in the shape of a pardon.

Col. R. S. S. Baden-Powell, defender
of Mafeking. is a seasoned frontiers-
man. At the beginning o£ the Trans-
vaal war Col. Baden-Powell undertook
the defense with a force consisting of
a part of the First Battalion of the
Lancashire (Royal North) Regiment,
the First Battalion Muniter Fusiliers,
and 1,000 colonials, with one battery of
artillery—In all probably 2,000 men.
The siege began on October 16, 1S99,
and was led by Gen. Cronje in persou
until he went to Klmberley to oppose
Methuen. Baden-Powell was bom-
barded almost daily. He made occa-
sional sorties, but hl3 force was too
small and his weapons too Ineffective
to make headway against the besieg-
ing force.
Col. Baden-Powell is a cavalry of-
ficer, who joined the Hussars when he
was nineteen, and is now a lieutenant
colonel in a regiment of Dragoon
Guards. His life has been spent in
the army and in special service and
travel, and ho is an authority on cav-
alry tactics, having written manuals
on reconnoissance work and scouting.

FILIPINO WOMEN.
They Look Hotter iu Piotnres Than In
tho Flesh.
Manila Correspondence Chicago Rec-
ord: In many respects tho Filipino
women are attractive—that Is, at mid-
range, the power of attraction vary-
ing, I am told, inversely with the
square of the distance. But as you go
along the street you are certain 1F> be
pleased with their invariable neatcess
of dress. To be sure, the costume
would seem brief for Broadway or the
T^ake Shore drive, but out here it is
quite the fashion for a woman's dress
to reach only to her knees, and she
doesn't wear stockings. The skirt is
ordinarily colored, of calico or some
similar lipht-weight material, and reds
of different tints are varied with black.
The waist is of a thinner, gauzy ma-
terial over an underwalst of white, and
the large puffy sleeves reach only to
the elbow. The garment is cut quite
low on the shoulder and straight
across, and Is always down, exposing
one shoulder and a full round neck.
The bead is carried as erect as possi-
ble, owing tr the habit of hearing bas-
kets and burdens upon it. The hair is
pulled straight back and knotted he-
hind, and when the wearer gets
through combing It she sticks a com-
inoQ comb straight In it for au orna-
ment and wears it there projecting on
either side. She never wears a hat,
and that, I suppose, is one reaeou vrhy
the FlUptnos can live so cheaply and
support the war. Her shoes, too. are
inexpensive and don't seem to change
in style; they are of wood, and she
scuffs them along the walk as she
moves her foot, for they are suspended
only by a cloth band across the toes.
This costume probably seems odd, but
her hair Is always freshly dressed and
her clothing immaculate and stiff-
ly starched; ber carriage is erect and
her features ordinarily regular and
COL. BADEN-POWELL,

adjutant, served with his regiment in
India and Afghanistan and in South
Africa. Early in his military career
he became familiar with the parts of
the African continent with which hie
pame will hereafter be associated. In
1887 he was again at Cape Town as
assistant military secretary to Gen. Sir
Henry Smyth, and during his two
years' stay there he served in the
Zululand operations. After serving
three years at Malta, he ag;*ln re-
turned to Africa, charged with the
special service of raising r.nd com-
manding the native levies in the Ash
antee operations. For his work in this
campaign he received the brevet rank
of lieutenant colonel. After the Jame-
son raid, when the Matabeles rose a
second time, he was chosen as chiel
staff officer of Gen. Sir Frederick Car-
rljagton. At the beginning of the
Transvaal war he was selected to pro-
ceed to South Africa to raise a mili-
tary force on the spot and to drill it
into efficiency. That he succeeded in
doing so was attested by his long re-
sistance against a superior force.

Men's Haubeld.
Among the vagaries of fashion may
be cited tho habit which men have
formed of wearing bracelets. This
fashion comes from Italy and Austria,
where it i6 very prevalent. The prince
of Wales wore on his left arm for
many years a bracelet which belonged
to the unfortunate Maximilian, em-
peror of Mexico. The queen of Eng-
land's second son, the duke of Saxe-
Coburg, not only wears a bracelet, but
he has a chain round his neck. The
example, as may be seen, comes from
high quarters, and it is natural that
princes should have many imitators,
not only among those around them but
further afield. Tho prince of Wales
sets the fashion in dress and the slight-
est fancy of his is accepted, as a rule.
The latest talk is of the prince fasten-
ing his frock coat with a coat link. We
do not think the fashion will find imi-
tators in France. Our young men
have adopted uncut stones set in gold
for waistcoat buttons, but these links
for a frock coat appear too marked for
us. The prince de Sagan might have
risked them, but assuredly no one
would have followed his example.—
