There

The

scored

success
in
the.recent
Thanksgiving
Day
celebrations

St.
Thomas
may be ecoming
on a
visit to this
island
to givea
show.
It
is
hoped
to
have
the
pleasure
of
welcoming
that
highly
commended
company
and
that
the
patronage
here
will prove
adequate
to reward its
efforts, —aithough
there
is
a
ecircus
in

here
already.
From

the
famous

to

congratu-

on the successfu!

HERE AND TAERE
THE
PATHFINDER
says
the
crigin
of the
term '‘shinplaster’’ dates
back
to
the Civil war when
the
nam
was applied
to paper
money
of any
kind,
especially
to-fractional parts of a dotlar.
The name
is said to be derived
‘from -the
act
of
a.
soldier
in
the
Rewvolutionary
war
who
"
used
a
quantity..of
paper
currency
as
"
plasters
for a wounded
leg.

In reference
to citizenship of the
Vir-
gin
Islanders,
the
Pathfinder
states:
“‘Such small outlying possessions
as
Vir-
gin Islands
will probably
never
be
ad-
mitted
as
states;
but they:
.may
have
qualified
representation
at Washington,
as Hawaii etc.
now do.
People of islands
do
not
share
in -electing
president.”’
From
the
foregoing the
impression
ap-
pzars
to be given that
Virgin Islanders
are
citizens
of
the
U. S.
only
without
privilege to vote for president
; a
sort
of
minister
without portfolio.
