AGAIN ATTACKED BY RIFFS.
Thirty-One Tribes in Morocco Com
bine Against the Spaniards.

Among the members of the staff of Gen.
Margallo the commander Of the Spanish
troops at Melilla, Morocco. who was killed
Sunday during the fighting with the Riffs.
was Prince Ferdinand of Bourbon, nephew
of the eX-King of Naples. He has not been
seen since the fight was at it's height and
II is not known whether he was killed or
fell into the hands of the enemy.
The public sentiment at Madrid over the
repulse of the Spanish forces is hourly in
creasing and the popular ciamor for the
dispatch of a punitive expedition against
the Riffs will undoubtedly force the govern
ment to take prompt measures.
As result of the protracted conference
of the leaders of the tribes known COLO
quially the Riffs no less than thirty-one
tribes have entered into an alliance to wage
war against the Spaniards. The fool
hardy bravery and fanaticism of the Riffs
Is we'll known to everybody who has ever
had dealings with them, and the govern
ment is censured for not sending soon
as the trouble broke out a sufficient force
to drive them back into their mountain
Businesses and to keep them there.
dispatch from Melilla states that the
Riffs late Sunday resumed their attack
On the Spaniards. The fighting was des-
perate on both sides. but the Spaniards
successfully maintained their positions.

Not So Slow.

FROM the Kansas City Times.
There is more or less humbug about the
traditional slowness of the messenger boy
At least there is one of them in Kansas
City who is abreast of the age In which he
lives. This uniformed urchin keeps an &C
count in one Of the banks. and it is growing
rapidly. too. The other day he went in to
deposit so cents. The teller. with more than
his customary haughtiness. informed the
boy that deposits of less than 81 could not
be received by the bank. The youngster
wasted not word in argument. but walked
quietly to a desk, wrote check for 81
and presented the same at the window of
the paying teller. The check was honored
OF course. Then the carrier of messages
revisited the receiving teller
I'D like to deposit $3.50. if you please"
he said
The deposit was accepted. and the re-
ceivlng teller was very much chagrined.
