Admiral Da Gama's Plans Against Me-
theroy End In FiEsle.
NEw YORK. Feb. 6-Advices received
from Rio Janiero at late hour Mon
day night indicate that the battle
which Admiral Da Cana and his fol-
lowers had planned did not come off
II was the intention OF the insurgent
leaders to attack Nictheroy, as it was
thought the people and troops there
were friendly TO them and that the
capture would be atas.c piece of strate-
gy, and that when Peixoto saw that
his followers were deserting him he
would give up and allow the insurgents
TO rule the country,
1t is said the reason the attack was
not made, was because the plan leaked
out and the government had made all
preparations necessary for the defense
of the place. The soldiers and citizens
had been labored with in behalf OF the
government and that they concluded
to remain firm.

TEACH A CHILD NICE MANNERS.

There is one thing that child should
be taught from the time 1t Is old enough
to sit up In the company Of its elders,
and that is a refined code Of table man.
ner5 that no future influence can change
in any way, says the Philadelphia
Times 1t is hard to overcome the hab-
its Of childhood, even though the as
sociations OF youth are entirely differ
ent from those that left their mark on
the first years Of existence. Therefore,
to instill correct demeanor, one must
begin when the baby brain Is unfolding
and receptive.
No one can estimate how very much
a person is judged by the sort Of con-
duct which characterizes the prosaic
eating and drinking that is part Of the
daily routine. The graceful handling OF
a fork. the dainty way Of slipping ones
soup, the knowledge Of what this, that
and the other table ornament is for,
stamps a man or woman at once as be
ing used to good society. and is the
greatest help to the awkward and the
shy.
No matter how lovely woman may
be. IL she eats with her knife the illu-
sion Is dispelled. and no matter how
great or honorable the man II he viii
persist in drinking out Of his saucer his
fame counts for naught.
1t is the little things Of life that either
condemn or elevate us in the opinion Of
others, and table manners are as essen
tial a part Of the education Of a gentle
man or gentIewoman as the deeper llnee
Of thought and learning.
A mother cannot be too careful with
her child in this particular. Teachers
Of dancing and department may come
in later years. but the first rudIments OF
liable etiquette should be ingrafted while
yet the baby sits in a high chair and

SEVERANCE DENIED THE CoXEY.
TIES.

Seattle, May 14.-The presence of the
United States troops has proved very
beneficial, and there is no sign of fur
ther disturbance. Attention was con-
centrated upon the court house. United
States Judge Hanford arranged to hold
court there, the Jail being In the same
building. This avoided marching the
Coxeyite prisoners through the streets
to the federal court. The court house

APPEAL TO ATTORNEY GENERAL.
After Conference, the Secretary of War
Orders Troops to Assist the
Marshals

Washington, May 14.-Reports OF a
disquieting nature were received today
by Attorney General Olney respecting
the lawless acts of various armies OF
Coxeyites in the west in seizing trains
and interfering with the mails. The
attorney general counseled with the
secretary Of war, and 1t was decided to
adopt the line of policy pursued last
week in dealing with these cases. While
general instructions had been sent TO
military commanders in the troubled
districts to give all lawful assistance
necessary to the United States courts
in repressing these outrages. it was felt
proper to send specific instructions to-
day to Gen. Otis, at the Vancouver bar
racks, and to Gen. Brooke, commanding
the department of the Platte. to take
active steps to hold off marauders in
these districts, acting, of course, as aux
iliary to United States marshals.

NATURES INDIGNANT QUESTION,


Mr.. Depew, who has just returned to
New York from one Of his periodical
tours Of inspection, during which he
travelled over 5000 miles, says in an
interview published In the Tribune:
Tho whole Western country between
Chicago and Buffalo," says Mr.. Depew,
reminds one of the pictures formed
by him, In his imagination, OF the
Garden Of Eden. The orchards are In
blossom. the fields OF winter wheat
never looked more promising. the at
mospheric conditions have prepared the
land in the best possible manner for
crops. and Nature seems to have just laid
herself out to teach an object lesson
to the politicians on wasted opportuni-
ties She sits on every rail fence
and trudges behind every farmers
plow, pointing with one hand to the
smiling earth and to the promising har-
vest. and with the other to Washing
ton. and Indignantly asks: why, when
the Lord has furnished every opportli-
nifty for the prosperity. employment and
general happiness OF the people OF this
country. should they be kept from en-
joying their blessings by statesmen who
seem to b. equally incapable OF doing
anything or doing nothing"

The Japanese have become 80 pro-

clared that he would not vote for a
Catholic for any office under any con-
sideration, and hadno confidence in any
man who would vote for one or aid one
