INSURGENTS VICTORIOUS.
Reported to Have Captured a Brazil-
ian Gunboat.
By Cable to the United Press.


BUENos AYREs, April 9, 1s94-Advices
have been received here from Grande dc
Sui that the Brazilian government gunboat
Cananea surrendered to Admiral Mello on
Friday. The land forces of the insurgents
surrounding Rio Grande do Sui, 5000 strong,
are well armed, equipped and provisioned
and in excellent health.
Later advices state that on Saturday four
transports. conveyed by a torpedo boat,
forced the bar at Rio Grande do Sui and
landed 1000 insurgent troops 1t is reported
that large insurgent force is moving south
ward with the presumed intention of max
ing an attack upon Porto Allegro. The re
ported capture of Rio Grande do Sui by the
insurgents is premature, but decisive bat
tie may be expected there at any time.
The English gunboats the Beagle and the
Race leave Montevideo for Rio Grande do
Sui today.
The heavy losses which the country has
sustained through drought and the extremely
low prices of produce have created well
grounded fears that commercial crisis will
result within the next three months.

William Toomey, Familiarity known as

rejecting money and saying, Its real
pleasure to me and no trouble at ALL"

him and her comfortably, and it soon
became known that old Bill Toomey was
ready and anxious to come at all hours
of the day and night, rain or shine, win
ter and summer. To make sure that no
one would be laid ont without him he
fell into the habit of keeping careful ac-
count Of all the sick, and made his
rounds of inquiry each evening. Sew

expected to live through the night, Mr..
Toomey spent the night watching the
house of sickness. without regard TO his

A curious story Of COW is reported

Ahir. or cowherd caste, was carrying "A

Ihereupon the Brahmans held solemn
conclave, at which the cowherd was
sentenced to the severest form of Hin

During this term it was ordered that he
was to lead "A life of mendicancy, and
with a rope around his neck and with a
portion of the calls tail on his shoulders
was to perform pilgrimages TO different
Hindoo shrines. The members Of his
family We're forbidden to supply him
with either shelter or food under pen

cation.
The Ahir is reported to have now re-
turned TO his village, but until the puri-
fication ceremonies are over he must live
in a temporary grass matched house

A man in Leeds, England, looked a
gift horse in the mouth the other day
with profitable results. The keeper of a
skating rink had advertised "A great
fancy costume carnival" and by way of
stimulating the invention of his patrons
he promised that the wearer of the most
original costume should be rewarded
with "A watch Of the value of ninety dol
lars. The man who won the watch took
it to a jeweler, who said the timepiece
was worth only twenty.
The winner. therefore, applied TO the
courts for redress. The skating rink
proprietor defended himself with the
plea that the giving of the prize was a
purely voluntary act, and the recipient
should not take the giver's estimate too
literally. The judge. however, took a
different view and gave Judgment for
the plaintiff for ninety dollars.-London
