The Grand Naval Reviews In Hampton
Roads and New York Harbor Likely to
BE Splendid Displays.
WASHINGTON, April 16.-After a con-
ference with the various parties inter
ested in the great international naval
reviews, to be held in Hampton Roads
and New York harbor, in April, 1898,
Senator Daniel of Virginia, will, on
Monday, introduce in the senate an
amendment to the naval appro-
priation bill, appropriating $780,
900 for the expenses of the re-
view and the entertainment of
the official guests of the nation, who
will accompany the foreign fleets. The
president will, as directed by the exist
ing law, extended to foreign nations u
formal invitation to participate in the
review, as soon as congress provides the
necessary appropriation. 1t is believed,
by the friends of the government, that
many of the presidents of the American
republics, and the reigning sovcreigns
of several European nations will come
with their fleets. 1t is particularly de-
sired that the king and queen of Italy,
and the queen regent of Spain shall par
ticipate in the ceremonies.

LOUISVILLE, KY. April 1s.-This city
was visited by firebug Sunday morn
ing. Within radius of four squares
five incendialy fires occurred in three
hours, accompanied by the total de-
struction of eight buildings and serious
injury TO a number of people. Only the
efforts of a number of firemen saved
several people from being burned alive,
and they escaped only after having
their hands and faces terribly burned.
Ed Kellet, an eighteen-year-old boy, is
in Jail charged with the crime, and
there is strong evidence that he applied
the torch in every case.

WAsHINGToN, April 16.-The depart
ment of state has received further ad-
vices from Victoria, b. c., as to the sue
cess attending the fleet of vessels now
engaged in hunting seals on the Pacific.
The steamer Mystery, which was en-
gagged to take off the skins secured by
the vessels now at sea has returned, and
the total catch to date received
at Victoria is reported to be 4,56O. This
is regarded as light catch, and is at
tributed in part to the bad weather, but
mainly to the fact that the seals are re
ported to be much less numerous thar
In former years.

Gulmpes and Shirt waists.

The novelty for guimpes is a round
collar finished with a deep lace frill that
falls low on the waist of the dress and
over the tops of the sleeves. This gives
the popular effect of bertha of lace
surrounding the low neck or the yoke of
a dress. White China silks or null are
used for these guimpes. The full sleeves
are feather-stitched on shirring at the
wrist, with lace frills falling ON the
hands. Washing silk, foulards and cotton
cheviots are made up in shirt waists,
with shallow yoke, turned-over collar,
box plait down the front, and full
sleeves with deep cuffs. .-Harpers Bazaar,

How the italian AFFAIR Mt New Orleans Was
Settled.

How the Italian AFFAIR ut New Orleans Was
Settled.
WARRINGTON, April 15.-Inquiry in
this city confirms the statement coming
from Rome that complete and amica-
BILE settlement has been reached in the
international difficulties between the
United States and Italy, growing out
of the New Orleans tragedy. 1t APP
pears that the government of the
United States has voluntarily taken the
initiative in closing the breach, without
committing itself 10 the recognition OF
any claim for indemnity, but simply as
an act of justice and from motives of
comfy, has placed in the hands of the
Marquis Imperiall, the Italian charge
,d'affaires here, the sum of 1875, 900 francs,
or S25, 900, for distribution among the
heirs of the three Italians who were
killed at New Orleans, and were found
to he subjects of the Italian govern
ment. 1t is understood the money was
taken from the annual appropriation
of $4,000 to enable the president
to provide for unforeseen emer-
igencies in the diplomatic and
consular service, so that it will
be unnecessary to call upon con-
gress for a specific appropriation. By
this action on the part of the U. S. gov
.ernmcnt the disagreeable complications
in the relations of the two govern
ments it is believed, have been re-
moved, and within a short time the dip
iomatic relations between them will be
restored to the amicable status existing
before the New Orleans tragedy, Minis
ter Porter returning to Rome and a
minister from Italy taking up his post
at WaShinrton

IIuInbug.

Edward Nathaniel Lever, who was
all his life connected with the London
Stock Exchange, and died on May Z,
1876, aged so, once said in all serious
ness that during the Napoleonic wars
so much false news of politics and army
movements came through Hamburg that
anything that smacked of the incredible
was received with the derisive phrase,
"That's Hamburg" whence is derived
by corruption the word 'humbug." If
the word does not date back beyond the
period referred to, it seems more rea-
one we get in Webster's Dictionary

MADRID, April 15.-The optimistic
view taken of the anarchist situation
here and the belief that the prompt ac-
tion OF the authorities would prevent
the coinmittal of Airther outrages of
that character has received a severe set
back. 1t appears now chat after the
arrest of Delboche, Ferreira and MunoZ,
the anarchists temporarily relapsed into
Iuietude. but they have again resumed
their work in different parts of the
country.
An illustration OF this was given
Thursday at Cadiz. Like all Spanish
cities Cadiz has been closely observing
Holy week. Thursday being Holy
Thursday there was public procession
of worship persons, the priests bearing
religious emblems and relics. A con-
siderable crowd watched the procession
lists as they passed along the streets, "a
great majority of the bystanders bow
ing rcverently as the religious emblems
were carried past them. Everybody in
the procession was passing slowly
along, without the least thought of
danger when suddenly two men in the
crowd ef onloolscrs threw two petards
directly into the procession.
Those in line were panic stricken and
fed in every direction. The bystand.
ers were also terribly frightened and
sought safety in fight. In the confus-
|, ion and excitement the Williams who
threw the petards made their escape
and there is not the slightest clew to
their identity. A pumber of process.
Sionists were more or less injured by
the explosion but fortunately no one
was killed. Many of the people returned
to the church from which the procession
originally came and offered up thanks
for their escape from death. The
people are deeply indignant at this
latest outrage The police can not b'
blamed for any laxity, for no ONT
dreamed that special precautions would
be necessary to prevent an attack upor
a religious procession.
These professions are feature in al
Spanish cities, particularly during hol.
week, and seldom heretofore has an,
trouble occurred. through them. Ever,
effort will be made to capture the mis-
creants. and if they are caught the,
will undoubtedly spend the remainde
of their lives in penal servitude.

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The U. S. S.
Ranger will be put in commission at
San Francisco on the 25th inst, and
will be assigned to patrol duty in Behr-

town, Mohican and Adams. They will
be reinforced by the revenue vessels
Corwin, Rush and Albatross. These
seven vessels will comprise the entire
American feet to guard the waters of

Enforcing the Indiana Game Laws.

MARION, Ind, April 15.-Violations of
the game law have been numerous here
and in this neighborhood for several
years. Thursday recorded the first
tangible results of n raid against the
violators by friends of the law. Allen
Skinner will pay $50 and costs for having
been detected with a gill net in his pos
session, and August Depair, an inmate
OF the Soldiers home, will pay $40 and
costs for putting net in the river, and
s. each for four bass taken with it.
Others are implicated, and the prosecu-
ton against them will be pushed.

INC purham Minors, strike.

LONDON, April 1s.-Daily the effects
of the strike of the Durham coal
miners, which was inaugurated on the
18th of March last, are becoming more
apparent stocks of fuel at the works
which haze depended upon the Dur
ham mines for their supplies, are either
entirely exhausted or approaching the
vanishing point. Never in the course of
the history of the trade in the North Of
England has there been 50 grave Il
crisis. 1t is impossible to correctly es-
innate the number of men who haze
been thrown out of work by the strike
of the miners.

Flowers for Evening.

Flowers are growing more and more
popular rs trimming for evening cos
tunes Even the old-fashioned flowers
find themselves at fashionable society
events, clinging with certain timidity
to the graceful folds of some filmy
gown. An attractive chiffon costume is
of pale yellow made over a foundation
of yellow silk. The chiffon is draped
loosely over the silk and is trimmed
with garlands of pale yellow roses,
which reach from the waist almost to
the bottom of the gown. The lower
part of the bodice is outlined with
pointed belt of yellow ribbon. A long
yellow sash falls over the chiffon
drapery at the back and the bodice is
cut very low. The exact shape is out
lined with tn yellow roses, and II
graceful bunch of tine roses form u cap
over the shoulder, which is the fashion
able apology for n sleevc-N. Y. Sun.

Opinions of the italian Indcmn

Opinions of the italian Indemnity Case.
LONDON, April 16.-The Daily News,
in addition to declaring that no sane
being can doubt that the offer of in
demnity for the New Orleans lynching
made by the United States to Italy
was dictated solely by a sense of
right, says that the dignified observa-
tions of the New York Herald, Tribune
and Times might proftably be studied
by some organs of opinion on this side
of the ocean. The News pays a tribute
to the statesmanlike attitude of Mr..
Blaine, who, it says, voluntarily offered
to make. compensation to Italy.
The Globe says that the heirs of
men lynched are very lucky.
According to the nOn-diplomatic
view it is not to be as
sumed that Mr. Blaine intends to cs-
tablish precedent holding the federal
government answerable for the delicts
of every separate state. That would be
carrying the federal principles degree
further than was ever thought of even
when civil war was not considered too
high price to pay for its supremacy.

No Money.
WArERTowN, Mass, April 1S.-Work
upon the Woodbridge wire-bound gun
is being continued in spite of the fact
that the allotment necessary to com
plete it has been expended. Maj. Riley,
the ordnance officer in charge of the
arsenal at this place, is determined to
finish the gun as soon as possible and
forward it to Sandy Hook for trial. The
great delay in the work has been largely
owing to the meager equipment for gun
work
An experiment is being conducted
here that possesses great deal of in
terest to army and navy ordnance Of
ficers in connection with the ten-inch
wire-wound steel gun. 1t is a test by
interior hydrostatic pressure of the
base loop about to be applied to that
piece of ordnance.
Not only is the experiment upon
larger scale than any in which the ap-
plication of equal pressures has been
made. so far as known, but it is con-
Quoted in such a way as TO develop
much more fully than has been the cor
respondence between the loss of resist
ance as at present accepted and the
teachings of a purely experimental de-
termination !"
Pressures are applied in successive
multiples in 1000 pounds per square
inch and the elastic or permanent
changes of diameter at the interior,
middle thickness and exterior of the
cylinder for each pressure are measured
and recorded to the nearest ten-thous-
andth of an inch.

A Beautiful Aurora.

Ia common with many sections OF this
country one OF the grandest auroral dis
plays ever witnessed was seen by the
citizens of this town on Saturday even
ing last. This display which was at its
height about half past seven was obser-
we'd at New York, Philadelphia, Balti
more, Louisville, Cincinnati, Cleveland,
Columbus, Toledo, Detroit, Indianapolis
Chicago, Milwaukee and many other
points in dozen or more states, but was
not seen at St. Louis, Kansas City, St.
Paul, Minneapolis, Memphis. The most
concise definition of aurora-for there
are two, au aurora australis as well as an
aurora boreaiis, southern as well as
northern lights most concise
definition we have seen is that they are
electrical displays, accompanied by
mapuectic disturbance. 1t seems to be
pretty clearly established, at any rate,
that these displays are due to highly
electrified conditions of the upper regions
Of the atmosphere. Elaborate observa-
tions by scientific observers indicate an
average height for these displays OF
about 80 miles above the earth surface
though some are doubtless very much
higher than this, while there are ooser
vations on record where auroras have
been seen over areas 50 restricted as to
indicate height of not more than few
| miles. Recently two Swedish astrono'
mers, by means of a network of cleo
trical currents between two mountains
have succeeded in producing artificial
auroras on small scale. The Baltimore
| Sun says: There is further theory that
| these electrical disturbances are con
| neoted with the appearance Of spots on
the surface of the SUI, and the pheno'
menon of Saturday seems I'd confirm this
y'aw, as there is now spot on the SUI
