THE FLOWERS OF DREAMS

A handsome drawing room with
no glare OF gliding or blaze of color.
the light in it softened and snbdned.
A tall slender girl with proud bear
ing and a certain conscious grace,
with a delicate figure, every line of
which was perfect in its symmetry
and beauty stood therein. A long
dress OF sweeping white silk trailing
laces fell around her, leaving bare
finely nodded arms and neck, a milk
white throat against which nestled q
crimson POPPY flower, poppy flowers

she was standing by a costly jardin.
iere, from which fell the crimson
blossoms Of the poppy. Her white
slender fingers caressed them. Her
lower-like face, with its sea shell
bloom was bent over them. She
was so beautiful in her delicate,
lovelincss, that her mother entering
the room stood watching her for
some minutes in silence; then ad.

Gov. Flower, OIL new FORK, mas
stated in most positive terms that
the mill between Corbett and
Mitchell shall not come off at Coney
Island (the place appointed for the
fight nor anywhere else 10 the State.
Gov. Mathews of Indiana, is equally
emphatic in his announced deter
mination that the disgraceful affair
phall not occur at Roby, where
Domiuick O'Malley and the Column

tensive Arena. The press and the
business men OF New Orleans are
bitterly opposed to another prize

Gov. Foster has declared that he
will not permit these bruisers and
their gangs Of admin rufians and
plug uglies gathered from all the
slums Of America and England to
defy the laws and offend public
decency by their brutalizing exhibi-
ton. But from the sporting columns
Of the New Orleans papers VIZ learn
that some of the sports of that city
are laying their heads together to
devise a plan to outwit the Govern
or and have the fight take place
there.
The plan is to have the 6ghl

in charge of the affair say they have

the Governor attempts to prevent

Governor cannot interfere unless

CONFIRMATION AT


Janssens, Archbishop of the Diocese,
administered the sacrament of con-
firmation in the Church of St. Mary
Magdalen, Abbeville. Parish of Yer
million. Abbeville is a prosperous
little town, about twenty miles from
Iberia, connected by a branch line of
the Southern Pacific Railroad. The
pastor Of St. Mary Magdalen's church
is the Rev. Father AL Mehault, who
for twenty-five years in good times
and in bad, has held that same posi-
ton. He is a jealous and energetic
pastor and is particularly remarka-
BILE for his enterprise and wonderful
powers of organization. He has
built up his parish and erected a
church which he has good reason to
feel proud Of. Father Mehault is
loved and cherished by his people,
and this seeing all that he has done
for them, is bat to be expected. He
is ably assisted in his good work by
Rev. Father Henrionet, who by the
way, is a native of New Orleans.
His Grace arrived on Wednesday
evening, having just come from Cy-
Fremont. He was met at the sta.
ton by Father M6hault, at the head
of the Abbeville branch Of the Cath.
olic Knights Of America. The
Catholic knights accompanied him
in a body to the church grounds,
where the children of the parish
we're drawn up in double line to res
ceive Ills Grace's blessing. Here
he was rendered an address of well
come in the name of the citizens and
Catholics of Abbeville. L.. O.
Broussard, o member of the Catholic
Knights, delivered the address.
The gentleman, among his other re.
marks, paid a compliment to the
great zeal of the Archbishop who
was going about his Diocese "doiDg
good to all, cheering his flock by his
presence and urging them onward in
the practice Of their holy religion
by his earnest words" at the end
His Grace raised his hand in hene,
diction ove the heads of the kneel-
ing faithful before him. This hearty
reception concluded, the parishioners
repaired to the church and there
catechism those who were to receive
the Holy Sacrament Of Confirmation.
He found them well grounded in the
principle of our holy Faith, owing
to the great and special care with
which they had been prepared by
their worthy pastor and the good
Sisters who had SO zealously second,
ed his endeavors.
On Thursday morning at 7 O'Clock
the Archbishop celebrated the Holy
Sacrifice OF the Mass. all the can
didates for Confirmation and q large
number of the other parishioners
approached the altar rails to receive
the Blessed Eucharist at the hands
OF their Chief Pastor. At 9 a. m

Atthis time, while waiting for such
opening, 1t ia q good opportunity to
look backward Mt the first efforts In
America to hold big fair and note
the difficulties, labors and triumphs
which attended ON them. The begin.
ming was made In 1853 In the city Of
New York, in specially erected
structure called the Crystal Palace, u
construction OF Iron and glass, 1864
feet In diameter, with galleries and u
dome 1873 feet high and 100 feet wide.
The building covered Ok acres OF land,
and was called an architectural mar.
vel. Comparisons Of this relatively
Insignificant structure with some OF
those at Chicago show how enormous.
ly greater are the appointments for
the Chicago Fair than were the ac.
commodations for New York's displa y
forty years ago. The Crystal Palace
was erected by characterization Tor the
Exhibition OF the Industries OF nil
Nations" with capital OF $500, 900.
All told It had $50, 900 square feet OF
floor space. We are advised that
twenty-five million dollars or more
has been invested in tho Chicago
enterprise to date. The Manufactures

than the Crystal Palace, which was

THE CUBAN UPRISING.

| IL has been long time since Cuba
Ind fulfil edged revolution, but the
uprising lately begun by the discon-
tented elements Of the islnnd may
rlpen Into one. The latest advlces
from there indicated that the move.
ment was gathering volume aud I'M
less tho government acts promptly aud
with sufficient power 1t may soon ind
itself unable 10 maintain footing in
the interior, and then In the absence
OF Intervention It might have to give
up altogether. Undoubtedly that Is
what tho revolutionists count on, as
tho control OF the interior alone would
not amount to autonomy nor secure
recognition abroad.
We are advised that the captain
general OF Cuba called n council of
war on Thursday night last and issued
y manifesto declaring the province OF
Santiago dc Cuba under martial law.
The next day he ordered troops to the
revolutionary districts, but the
soldiers would not march until they
had received their arrears Of pay.
These were made up, and payment for
three months In advance ordered to
DO given to the government troops, but
even then It did not seem that they
took up their line OF march for the
scene of tho revolution as though
their hearts were In II. This Is q bad
omen for tho government, especially
when considered In connection with
the insurgents claim that they will
have $4,000 well-Armed men In the
field before the LIST Of June under the
general direction OF General Gomez,
the revolutionary leader, whose nom
inal home Is San Domingo. Inasmuch
as the Cuban armed force, ON a peace
footing, Is restricted to 20,Il4 men In
NIL branches OF the service, 1t IL mani
fest that n revolutionary army Of 49,
QUO men would be- extremely formid-
able II not invinciblc, all things con.
sidered.
The circumstance that gives the
revolutionary movement Its greatest
Importance. however, Ia declared to be
the fact that 1t is led by native Cubans
young men Of birth, fortune anu dis.
unctioD, who have devoted themselves
to the cause Of free Cuba. II they can
restrain and discipline the men who
will flock to their standard, and can
form an army rs we'll trained and as
obedient m that which followed the
revolutionary leaders In Chile and
Venezuela, 1t is believed they will sue
coed In throwing off the yoke OF Spain
and In making Cuba free and independ.
ent. Looking Mt II as case In equity,
there seems no sufficient reason why It
should no. be no.
This and the Brazilian uprising con-
stitute all In the way OF warfare, we
believe, that is now going on. Man
kind has been behaving very well OF
late and II those In authority would
exercise no more pressure and levy no
greater exactions than they Were aclu-
ally required to for the sake OF kee ping
their respective realms In proper
working order, the war spirit might
fall to 80 low an ebb M to be practically
extinct.
