RBrURNoT THE COL UMBIAx RELICS
Great PubIic Demonstration In Honor OF
the Onicers or the Detroit ut Csdiz.

wAsBISGToN. Dec. 5.-The Department of
State has received from Charles l.. Adams,
United States Consul at Cadiz, report upon
the arrival OF the cruiser Detroit at that port
and the transfer OF the Columbian relics to
Madrid. The Consul says:
II take great pleasure in reporting the cor
dial and generous reception rendered the Detroit
and her officers by the civil, military. and naval
authorities OF Cadiz. In addition to the Gus
tomary courtesies extended to the vessel on her
arrival, the dlsembarkment OF the historic relics
was made the occasion OF a great public dem
onstratiOn, in which all of the local authorities
took part. The officers OF the Detroit were met
at the quay by Gen. Manuel Fernandinez
de Ia ROda. Military Governor Of Cadiz,
and staff; Capt.-tien. J. NJ. Reguera
Of the Spanish navy; the Hon. j. o. DE
la Cudra, Civil Governor of Cadz, and staff;
the Mayor. CounCilmen, and other representa-
tives OF the corporation, and a battalion of In
fantry, with two bands OF music. The American
officers and marines were given the position of
honor and escorted to the station, tho stars
and stripes being carried In advance of the
the American National airs The local papers
describe the reception as one OF the greatest dem
onstrations ever witnessed in Cadiz."
IL is notable that this official account Is In
every detail contradictory to the statements
contained In an alleged cabegram purpOrtinH
TO describe the GOODNESS of the reception to Com
mander " BrownsOn" and his ship at CadiZ
about three weeks ago, which was circulated IN
Western papers.

THE IDAHO SENATORsHIP.
Shoup, McConaell, and Hepburn Combined
Against Representative sweet.

Shoup, Mcconnell, and Hepburn CombIned d
Against Representative sweet.
wAsHISGroN, Dec 5.-There will be an inter-
esting contest in the Idaho Legislature next
month over tho election OF a Senator to succeed
Mr.. Shoup. His friends say that he might have
been reelected had he not written a letter last
summer announcing that he would not be .
candidate. After that announcement Repre-
sentative Sweet withdrew from the contest for
reelection to the House and turned his attention
10 the Senate. In the mean time Senator Shoup
publicly endorsed the Senatorial aspirations OF
Mr.. Sweet, and the latter proceeded TO gather
up votes in the Legislature. Advices from Idaho
indicate that Mr.. Sweet has the pledges OF a ma
jority on joint ballot. but the question 10
whether he will be able to hold them until tho
Legislature disposes Of the question. The pres
ent Governor. Mr. Mcconnell. is anxious to
come to the Senate; so is Mr. Hepburn, one OF
the leading lawyers Of that State. Senator
Shoup has also changed his mind about retiring
from politics, and he would like TO remain In
the Senate to help enjoy the. fruits Of last
months political victory. He has announced
that he Is again In the hands Of his friends and
the result is that Shoup, Mcconnell, and Hey
burn have formed "a Onibination to defeat Rep
resentatiye Sweet.
The younger element in the State are back Of
Mr.. Sweet, and with his successor In tho next
throw the thoup- Mcconnell Hepburn combina-
tion. IL Is very pretty fight, because the men
who make up the combination have heretofore
been bitter enemies, and each one is suspicious
OF the other. The question OF the division of
the state will also enter into the controversy.
which further Complicates matters. Shoup,
Mcconnell and Hepburn are not as we'll located,
geographically, Sweet, W no lives In tho north
ern part of the State. Representative-elect
Wilson in the middle, and senator Dubois in
the southwestern section. Dubois, Sweet. and
Wilson. three OF the Youngest and brightest Re
publcans In the state, are working together in
harmony as against the other combination. Mr..
Sweet is a rampant free silver Iuan, and he is
one Of the cleverest takers in the present House.

A NEW NAVAL STATION.
Secretary Herbert Decides 10 Establish
One In the SOuth PaeIdc.

wAsHISGToN. Dec. 5.-The volcanic political
conditions Of the South and Central American
republics and the numerous uprisinRs In recent
years, which have necessitated great activity
for the navy, have led Secretary Herbert to Gre
ate South Pacific station. with headquarters
for the feet at Valparaiso or CallaO. This
station was in existence several years ago, but
when the navy began To dwindle it was aban-
doned on account OF lack of vessels. The estab-
lishment OF the new station will give a detail to
some Commodore or Admiral who is entitled To
sea service, but as IL will be- the least desirable
OF any, there Is not likely u be much demand
for II,
The station Is now embraced within the Pacific
station, which practically extends from Alaska
west TO Hawaii. The Olympia will soon become
thh flagship OF the North Pacific station, and
some one OF the smaller vessels be made the flag
ship OF the south Pacific. Two or three vessels
will be assigned TO the nek station. and when
possible they will be ships Of the smaller class.

George saud at Home.

Madame anc the January Centuryl
 The breskfast-tsble was, at all times, we'll and abundantly laden, 60 that guests could drop in unexpectedly. Madame Sands whole luxury consisted in bound less hospitality. She herself was rather fond of good eating and made no secret of it. Seated in the midst of us, clothed in a loose house-dress, which, from the cut of its sleeves, resembled e peplum, she ate heartily, speaking but little. Her silence, her absorbed appearance, the torpor of her look, which did not seem to concentrate itself on anything visible, would st times be c source of anxiety to those who did not know her. In the novel of ''Bsstrix, !" wherein Bestrix Is the portrait of the Com tesse d'Agoult, who wrote under the name of Daniel Stern. and Camille Msup!n. that of George Sand, Bslzsc says of the latter character: "She frightens one by her si- with its profound fxity." It is well known that Theophile Gsutier, whom a friend had introduced to the hostess of Nohant, was so much oppressed by her continuous silence, from the moment of his arrival, that he decided to return to Paris. It seemed to him that he was an unwelcome guest. "Grest Hesvens" ex- claimed George Sand. in distress, when speaking to the common friend who in- formed her of her guests resolution, "you must have forgotten to tell him that am stupid"
 Personally I was not struck with her re- serve to SO great su extent as others; on several occasions she waIsd truly eloquent in my presence. I can recall certain out burst of hers against the middle ages, in connection with "Ls Sorciere" of Niche let, which she was reading at that time. It is true that these flashes, as if of light ming, were of rare occurrences Most of the time che spake but little, remaining a kindly listener, and occasionally putting in few words of good sense, but without any attempt at brillisncy. She detestsd discussions. ''I fly from an argument" she would say; "for always get the worst of 1t, though be a thousand Iimee in the night" Joking (blasus as she styled it in student phraseology) was odious to her se- rious nature. She did not permit any thing rieque In the conversation, but she would laugh heartily at thoss jovisl little stories, which in France we classify as plaisante- ries de cure. One wonders what her stti- tude could have been when present at those wonderful dinners given by the artist world at Msgny's. In the salon of Mad anne Emile de Girsrdi C'Dslphine GsynD, whither she went occasionally in her younger days, che did not breathe a word, apparently stunned by the profusion of wit around her. The unreal and superi- cisl relations, the conveRtionalities of which society is so exscting, did not sp- peal to her, and at times she would swk-
 wsrdly assume rude and unpleasant wave, | which were at variance with her remsrks- ble bonhomie To Madame Charles Rsy- baud, an amisble writer, who was lsvishly prsisipg her novels, she replied with brutal frsnkne. g, 'I sm sorry I cannot re- turn the compliment, madame, for have never read any of your books"

A BEAR ENCOURAGks BULLS.

nE All HNCOOAA AGnS n AkSs
 Two years ago Kansas man, who had been studying wheat for many years, came out with an impressive array of facts and figures by which he clearly showed that wheat must rapidly advsnce in price and that by 1895 there wouldn't be wheat enough to go around. He showed that pretty much all the wheat land of the world was then in use and that the wheat eating population was increasing at such rate that the supply would soon be un- equal to the demand. Ever since the Kan sas man made all this so plain that even a wayfaring man could see 1t the price of wheat has been steadily or unsteadily going down until 1t has reached discouraging point. And most of the time the supply has been 80 great that it could hardly be handled. q.
 It is already clear that the world will not be much pinched for wheat in 1895 for the reasons given by the Ksnsas man. The on- ly thing that will make wheat scarce this year or next will be short crops, and most of those interested in the growing of wheat,  ing of 1t into flour would welcome @ mod | erately short crop on account of the rise in price it would bring. They have waited long for turn in the tide and been long | disappointed. But some comfort is offered them by MT. William E. Bear, the well | known English writer on agricultural mat | ters. He thinks that the two big wheat crops of the United States in 1891 and 1892 were underestimated, and he estimates the two crops together a. the vast sum of l. 234, ,O0O, ,O00 bushels, or nearly the amount of three average crops. In the presence oi this extraordinary surplus the short crops of Europe had no significance. It hap, pened that India hsd an unusually large crop in 1891 also. All this accounts fol the depression in pricss in 1S92-93, bu from this time forward MT. Bear looks fol change to the advantage of the farmer. The crop in the United States for 1893 i one of the smallest known in ten years while those of most countries of Europ are deficient. India has @ larger croI even than that of 1891, but no other coun try from which we have re!isble statistic shows any considerable increste His con clusion is that the une1hausted suppie
 carried over by the United States and th
 surplus of India will prevent any snbstan
 tial improvement in prices this year, bu
 that the next and the following years vii
 see an advance which will at least mak
 wheat a remunerative crop, which 1t is nc
 now, in his opinion. He does not, how
 ever, look for excessive prices, since an
 considerable advance would bring mor
 land under wheat and lead to paore inter
 sive cultivation and . larger yield pc
 sore.
 Bulls on wheat will be little surprise
 to receive aid and comfort from Bea
 but they neei encouragement so badl
 that they will not care where it com
 from. They have hsd long and disa
 trous pull.

THE MOTOR M ANS BURDEN,

THE MOTOR MANS BURDEN.
 The Claw of the road" for the drivers of ordinary vehicles and the drivers of elec- tric cars has just been laid down by the Supreme court of the State of Massachu- setts. An electric road company was sued for damages by c man whose horse was frightened by the sound of the motor and continual sounding of the gong of an elec- trio car, and runaway, throwing the man and his daughter from the carriage. The evidence tended to show that the electric car was one hundred feet away when the animal first took fright, and that the motorman continued to sound his gong. The defendant contend ed that 1t was not negligence on his part to sound the gong, but rather duty which 1t owed to the pedes- trisns and other travellers on the street. The court decided for the plaintiff, but 1t said: The rights of the driver of horse and manager of an electric car under such circumstanoss are equal. Each may use the street, and each must use 1t with res sonable regard for the safety and conven- fence of the other. The motorman is sup posed to know that his car is likely to frighten horses that are unsccustomed to the sight of such vehicles, while most horses are easily taught, after a while, to pass without fear. It Is his duty, if he sees horse in the street before him that is greatly frightened at the car, so as to endanger his driver or other persons in the street, to dc what he reasonably can in the management of his car to diminish the fright of the horse, and it is also his duty in running the car to look out and see whether, by frightening horses or otherwise, he is put ting in peril other persons lawfully using the street, on foot or with teams. Of course, the owners and drivers of horses are required at the same time to use care in proportion to the danger to which they are exposed.
 This decision seems to leave the hard worked motorman in rather unpleasant situation. If he sounds his gong he may scars horse. If he doesn't he may run over some unwary pedestrian.
