He Became Bearded i'm His Grave.

Old-timers of Ell Paso county will re-
call the killing of William Campbell on
the Campbell ranch, sixteen miles
south of this city, says the Colorado
Springs Republic. Mr.. Campbell was
buried in grave on the ranch. and his
remains have lain there undisturbed
ever since. The Santa Fe track has
been laid near the grave, and the
widow feared its ultimate despoliation
by side tracks. When the remains
were taken up, and until exposed to the
air, they wereias' perfect as at the time
of burial, ana strange to relate, though
the deceased was clean shaven at the
time, his beard had grown to his waist,
and the hair of his head had grown lux
uriantly and covered his shoulders.
Mr.. Campbell has been IN his grave just
twenty-five years and nine months.

Aplan 60 secure Cuba.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 90 Especial to THE
BEE. When Minister Palmer took his
position as the representative of the United
States at the court of Madrid 1t was intlma-
ted mere that his first important duty would
be the negotiation of a reciprocity treaty
between this country and Spain. 1t is now
intmated with much force, that he is en-
gagged in much more important matter.
The state department vigorously refused TO
give any additional light upon the subject,
but il is pretty well known that the depart
ment W uld like to secure the purchase and
possession of the island of Cuba AS long
ago as Lincoln's administration, the project
of the annexation of CUBA was seriously
entertained. Secretary Blane's attention has
been drawn to paper prepared by Secretary
Seward for the purchase of the island. This
paper also contemplated the annexation of
Cuba to the state of Florida. Whether or
not the present secretary of state comedies
with this plan, is not known. In this con-
nection it is interesting to recall the story
circulated some months ago that under GER
tain circumstances this country would be
willing 10 assure q protectorate over the
island of Hayti. These plans are in accord
with Secretary Blaine's known views that
the domination and influence Of European
powers ought To be removed from this CON
tineEt 1t would not be surprising TO see
both of these matters discussed in the forth
coming annual report TO the president.

DEs MONIES, Ia, Oct 2O.-I Special to The
BEE. Much interest is beng taken in the
controversy between the governor and some
of the railroads over replies TO questions he
sem out some weeks ago. 1t will be remem-
bered that he asked number of questions
ABOUT their business some of which some of
the roads do not feel like answering. He
has announced his intention of pushing the
matter into court to compel them TO do so.
and if he does, there will be some fine legal
questions raised. One company, the Chicago
81 Northwestern, raises the point that the
governor has now no right to ask for any in
formation of this character, on the ground
that the last general assembly, in making a
new railroad law, repealed the old one under
which he claims the right. But if this point
is sustained, it then remains with the rail-
road commissioners TO ask such questions as
they think should be answered for the public
good, and the real issue of what are proper
questions, will then have to be tested in
court. Some of the railroads have given the
desired information, others have replied that
they did not possess it, and could not obtain
it, and still others, have refused point blank
To furnish II.

DEs MONIES, Ia, Oct. co. Special to THE
BEE. The railroad commissioners have so
many cases in which they are asked to com :
pei railroads to do certain things for the pub
lie good, that it is a novel and pleasant ex-
perence for change to find the case re-
versed, and the roads asking PERMISSION TO
do good thing. A case of this kind recently
occurred at Eldora. The depot OF the Iowa
Central road was incohvenicntly located
being about a mile from the center Of the
town. The company proposed to change, and
the citizens wanted it changed, and so the
road applied TO the railroad commissioners to
have them issue decree ordering change,
and thus give the right to condemn property
for this purpose. A hearing was to have
been held on the 18th inst, but before that
time arrived the road and the citizens be-
came tired of waiting and took the matter
into their own hands, secured a favorable To-
cation without any controversy and made the
desired change. The commissioners wish
that they could more often be relieved of
business in the same way.

MahOne's Mint Juieps.

WAsHINGToN. Oct. 2O.-[Special to TIE
BEE. General Mahone lives like lord at
Petersburg. He owns one of the finest
estates in the south, and is magnificent
entertainer. A northern politician who has
recently been nis guest said to me to-day;
"There is but one man in all this broad
country who knows how to make mint
iulep. He is General Mahonc's body
servant. His iuleps are works of art.
Taking a long, thin glass he piles it up with
layers of sliced lemon, alternated with finely
crushed ice, sprinkled with sugar, and then
pours just the right proportion of the finest
old liquor upon it. But the julep is by no
means finished. On the top long sprays Of
tender mint, carefully inserted in the crushed
ice, so that none of the stems or leaves are
bruised, form bouquet which is as large as
a mans fist. This with two thin slices Of
cucumber completes the work. The true
southern mint julep, according TO Malone,
should consist of the flg~or of the liquor,
lemon aud sugar, cooled with the Ice, and
the aroma but not the taste of the mint.
Malone says that the man who would bruise
mint in q iulep would rob his own grand
mother.n
