Col. Roosevelt's Good Sti Tammany Hall hopes that Colonel Roose- velt may in some way be embarrassed, as Seth Low was last year, by the preference of the Citizens’ Union. It con: ers that to tie extent the love of the Citizens’ Union is lavished upon him the love of the republi- can organization toward him will cool. Or that should he steadily grow in favor with the regular republicans, the independents, construing that as a complete surrender to Platt, will cut him at the polls. - i reason to believe that both the pendents and the republicans of New wk have learned something since last year.

It will be re ered that Mrs. Barnaby, widow of wealthy Rhode Island manufacturer, wa traveling in the west after having managed to break her husband's will by the terms of which she was left only an annuity. She had been greatly influenced in her later years by a Providenc> physician, Dr Graves, and when she secured a reversal ef the will and obtained a large share of sband’s estate she appointed Graves cted in a most arbitrary . refused to account as and wrote threatening tters to her. She real- an evil influence in her end peraetotes 1 ized that he was ife and forecasted to her friends that he would yet be the ruin of her. In view of these circumstances her own su. iclons Were naturally directed toward him, when, in April 1891, she was taken violently ill after drinking som? of the Itquor contained in a bottle which had a short time before been recelved by her through the mails with no mark to indicate from whom it had come. She lingered for,fiv days in agony, ard died accusing the physician. The liquor hed been mailed late in March and at Bos- ten, and had lain about a Denver lawyer's office for some time b2fore it was opened and consumed. It contained merely a slip of paper bearing the words: “Wishing you a happy new year, please accept this fine old whisky from your friends in th> woods." The final phras> suggested that perhaps the bottle had been sent by a family in the Adirondacks to whom Mrs. Barnaby had left part of her fortune in a will. This suspicion, however, was soon abandoned, and charges were promptly brought against Dr. Graves, who stoutly d2clared his intio- cence, yielded readily to removal from Rhode Island to Denver and briskly fought the case in court in the latter city. He was convicted, and pending a retrial of the case, ordered by the supreme court, he died in his cell under circumstances which suggested suicide, but leaving stat2>ments insisting upon his innecence. Thus the case has never been satisfactorily settled and re- mains one of the grzai murder mysteries oz this country. As in the latest case, in New York, the receiver of the poisoned liquor destroyed the wrappers surrounding the packag> and thus reduced the evidence available to the prosecution. — Soldiers’ Discharge: The War Department acted wisely im is- suing a memorandum to the effect that hereafter enlisted men who desire iv secure their discharges from the army mus: in their applications through the military channels instead of through their senators or representuauves. it i a military matter and it is uz some men should obtain better than others simpiy more “influence.” Thc gether too much opportr: on that ground already aad the autho: dié the proper thing when they sought to put a stop to it.

Elesewhere in The Star today are printed some valuable and timely suggestions as to ions which should be taken at this season of the year when typhoid fever is most likely to make its appearance. It is comparativ ely easy to do the right thing in the matter of drinking water in the homes but there cin be no question that children rz exposed to added dangers at sehuol and the recommendaticns as to supplying them with boiled water for drinking purpos are weil worthy of consideration. During the past three years there has been a grati- fying decre in the number of deaths from typhoid in the District, due in part to the filling up of a number of the city wells and to the fact that the people hav learned to take greater precautions than they ever did before. In the case of typhoid it is es- pecially true that an ounce of prevention is worth a nd of cure. ———_ +02 — Spain's Foxiness. th the czar and has offi- her approval of his dis- reme. wrot a fable of a fox, which, il through stress of cir- avored to start the fash- Acsop once ion among all animals of gving without tails y were cumbersome, he argued, not at all ornamental and a nuisance gen- erally.

The question of garrisons for Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines is now a most im- portant one. Trocps will be needed in all three of those possessions for garrison duty, f these who were hurried to the scene the war was in progress arc reperted to be anxious to return home now that the war is over. They enlisted in a spirit of patriotism and to serve for the stated two years, if fighting for the coun- try should that long be necessary. But garrison duty pure and simple, with the country no longer in any peril, was not within the scope of their calculations, and now that the problem presents itself they are anxious to solve it by stacking their guns and returning home. i It ought not to be difficult for the authori- ard some whil ties to meet this emergency. The black man thrives in the troples. The heat does net try him severely, and he is far less subject to attacks by fevers than the white man in that climate or anywhere. He makes a good soldier. Experience in this ccuntry has shcwn that, well officered, he does excellent garrison duty, and his record in Cuba bas shown that he is a thoroughly reliable fighter. Why not cpen the lists more liberally to him? Why not give him an opportunity which there are reasons to believe he would improve, and assign him to duty where he would do the government much good? This is a practical matter and deserves corsideration in a practical way. The United States needs soldiers, and it can only hope for satisfactory service from mcn who are contented with their lot and take pride in the service they are called upon to render. To undertake, therefore, to hold men in time of peace to the letter of a bond executed in time of war which they are anxious to cancel will be to invite em- bariassments through desertions and other kinéred discreditable means. Better let them go and fill their places with men enlisted without condition and with the wlLole situation clearly understood. The negro, as we have said, is largely the man for the occasion. In the hands of ocd officers he makes a first-rate guard and fighter, and in these warm countries we have acquired from Spain is an oppor- tunity for him which with encouragement he is likely to improve. ———- +02 Roosevelt is doubtless awake to the fact that before going into Camp Platt it would be wise to take Hberal precautions against various political germs. ————_ e=—_____ Fra curiosity to know just how bad the Dreyfus case can become with each new development may help to fortify its righteous indignatio: —— Possibly the temperance workers would be content to compromise on a proposition that wine be used exclusively for battle- ship christenings. 2! er has postponed his trip to the Holy Land.
