The following from the Washington Evening Star puts it in a nutshell the whole Cuban situation: "We have left the island in a very embarrassing situation. The people must have a profitable market for their crops, and that market proper is the United States. The Cubans want to trade with us, and we want their trade. But they must trade somewhere, and if not with us then with our competitors across the Atlantic. And yet, as we all know, overtures from Cuba to Europe or from Europe to Cuba, looking to such an end would cause a very unfavorable impression in this country. Our present rule, then, is that of a dog in a manger. We refuse to help Cuba, and would refuse to permit Cuba to help herself. We are standing between her and the j prosperity which rightfully belongs | to her. And, what aggravates our offense, we have not the excuse of an enlightened selfishness. We are at the sametime injuring ourselves." Not Doomed For Life. "I was treated for three years by good doctors," writes W. A.

My grip was open and I waited to replace everything and lock it, and then I walked out to the nearest fire escape and dropped my grip to the ground. "The fire escape was simply a rope fastened to a hook, and I was four stories up. The hall was dark with smoke, and I could hear men shouting and women screaming, but I pledge you my word that I wasn't a bit rattled as I loosed the coil of rope and backed out of the window. "I was a bit chilly, perhaps, as I found myself swinging 50 feet from the grouud, but I got down without further damage than burning and tearing the skin of my palms. "I reached terra firma to feel myself a hero, but the feeling didn't last over ten minutes. Then the firemen ernt the best of the flames, and as I O entered the hotel the night clerk said: " kAh ! you here ? I didn't see you come down." " T got out by the hall window,' I replied. "'You did?
