GOVERNMENT TROOPS WIN. Occupy Two Villages in Fighting With Haitien Rebels, , Cap Haitlen, Haiti, June 14.—Gov- ernment troops have occupied the villages of Milot and Sainte Suzannt; the troops stationed at Grande Rivi- ere have been driven back to La- combe; the fighting is continuing in the vicinity of Cap Haitien, and news bas been received here that the gun- boat Nord Alexis has bombarded the rebels at Fort Picolet. These are some of the developments of the first few days in the revolu- tion which is being conducted by Dr. Bobo, with the purpose of ousting Pregident Guillaume. No definite re- sults are yet in sight. Poor Jonathan, (Bridgeport Telegram.) Poor little John Jacob Astor 2nd is struggling along, peaked and wrecked and famished, on the allowance of $20,000 a year set aside from has in- heritance. The chances are that the little darling cannot survive on this pittance, 8o his mother has petitioned the courts for an increase in the al- iowance to $80,000 a year, setting forth that as a matter of fact she has been expending this sum in the maintenance of her child,” making up the difference out of her own pocket. The courts ought to listen with pity to a mother’s plea. None the less there must be some astonishment at the mother’'s amount of food and lodging consumed by young Astor. How fortunate must feel those widowed mothers to whom the state of New York is allowing pensions of 3 a week for each of their offsprings, To provide for a $2-a-week baby is bad nough, but to have a child who consumes $30,000 a year is positively a calamity. And how the widowed mothers in Connecticut must feel too, as they watch the court proceedings of the Titanic widow who is thus fghting for her baby's rights. In Ccnnecticut the babies In such cir- cumstances live upon wothing. At least that is the theory of the Connec- ticut legislature, as exemplified by its refusal to enact a motner’'s pension ©ill at the last session, But then, there were extenuating cigeumstances. The legislature needed the money for other purposes. Tt had Little Orphan Healy and Little Orphan Isbell clamoring for cream. S0 rightfully, upon the theory that charity begins at home, the legisla- ture took care of f{ts own first, through that nice statute revision sinecuré. Meantime the widowed mothers of Connecticut will look sym- pathetically on thé plex of the little 1itanic widow, and thinks how many blessings they have to e thanlful for, and how nice it is not to have to scrape together $30,000 a year for baby. | Chi Mil & St Paul 93% rose five points or more, and United States Reduction, commet and pre- ferred gained as much, soon extend- ing their advances to almost six and eight points, respectively.
