The Scy6chelles islands, which are sup

of IL islands and are situated about 140e
miles cast of Alden and 1000 miles from
Zanzibar. They rise steepiy out of the sea,
eliminating in the isle of Maize, which is
about 5000 feet above the level of the

of massive coral hewn into square blocks,
which glisten like white marble and show
themselves To the utmost advantage in

give pleasant and much needed shade.
These palms grow as high as 100 feet and

West, Fla, says: a letter has been re-
ceiVed here from Cuba stating that the
Spanish gunboat Alcedeo fired upon

of Key West, which left here several
weeks ago for a cargo of fruit, with a
crw Of sixteen men and had to pass
Puerto Padre and may have been the
vessel in question. The schooners
Louis Hastings and Lily also sailed for

sixteen men in their crew.

Trouble On Cuba.

| Washington, March 1S-An impent-
| trable mystery surrounds the negotia-
| tions between the state department and
| the Spanish government on the Alliance
| affair. 1t seems to have been borne in
| upon the officials of the state depart
| ment that in the present state of excited
public feeling, better progress can be
made toward a peaceful settlement of
the question by keeping the various
notes secret, than by giving publicity to
them before a conclusion has been
reached. The only response 10 definite
inquiries that can be obtained is posi-
tive refusal to discuss the subject in
any aspect and whether any action has
yet been taken by the Spanish govern
ment in the direction of issuing instruc-
tons to its naval officers to refrain
from further interference with Ameri-
can shipping will probably be learned
first from Havana, from which point
the order will be distributed.
Washington, March 1S-Secretary
Gresham was closeted all morning with
state department officials and other per-
sons concerning diplomatic happenings
since his illness. In answer to inqui-
ries on the Alliance affair, his private
secretary said that Secretary Gresham
authorized formal denial to be made
of reports published this morning, that
he had received from Minister Taylor
any answer to the note demanding an
explanation or apology from Spain.
President Cleveland conferred at noon
today with Secretary Gresham and Sec
rotary Carlisle. The Allianca affair
was gone over and the statement is
made that the present aspect of the
subject is such as to give assurance
that there will be no trouble of a serious
character between the United States
and Spain.
Consul General Williams has cabled
TO the state department that the General
Sanguilly trial has, in accordance with
the treaty Stipulations, been transfer
red from the court martial to the civil
tribunals. Sanguilly has been under ar
rest charged with participating in the
rebellion by the Spanish authorities
who were about to try him by court
martial when Consul General Williams
interfered.
Nothing whatever is known here of
the reports published in today's New
York Herald under a Key West date
that a Spanish gunboat had fired on an
American vessel off the Cuban coast.
Dispatches to the Associated Press last
night from Key West contained no such
occurances and there is no Spanish war
vessel Of that name given-the Arcedo.

A FLORIDA PICTURE.
Pen Sketch of Southern Scenes and SUr
rouudings by Paul Bou rget.

A town OF quite small hoslses, with
streets, and all along their wooden side
walks trees of magic and overf1ewing YER
dure, bursting into leaf which the duss
has been unable TO sully, writes Paul
Bourget from Jacksonville, Fla, in the
Boston Herald. Persian lilacs, like those
whose perfume / breathed in the east,
stand in the street itself, gigantic, in full
bloom, ana pertaining the already burn
ing air. There are, moreover, overladen
orange trees, Japanese medlars, also yell
low with fruit, bananas, palm trees, all Of
which foreshadow still another world than
that Of Georgia. A penetrating aroma
seems to pass through the sun which
shines in the too intense blue like the sky
which overhung the Dead sea last year,
when, on leaving the grim convent of Mar
Saba, perceived that still water and the
soft line of the mountains of Moab. But
yonder history and legend were for me
mixed with the sensation of nature. Here
1t is nature alone with which come in
contact, nature with its murderous fauna,
its violent fora, its atmospheric phenom-
ena, rather its cataclysrns, charm and dan
ger, at once perceptible in the very air one
breathes, in every small detail which we
sudden jumps of temperatnre-in fact, in
the entire life of this small town, SO peace
full on this Easter morning.
Negroes and still more negroes. IL
seems as if the town belongs to them en-
tirely, so densely do they throng on the
sidewalks, the men in Prince Albert coats
with flowers in their buttonholes, ann
wearing trousers of bright shades, thu
women clothed in outrageously light col
bred dresses, among which those of apple
green, poppy red and light pink predomi-
nate. Their bodices are cut In figaro fash
ion, their hats are decorated with ribbons
and enormous flowers, and their hair il
plated in plaits which are very thin and
very tight, the object being to diminish or
destroy the natural crinkling. They smile,
showing their white teeth between their
thick lips. The white teeth of the men are
displayed in a similar smile, and they all
salute and approach one another with that
familiarity, that species OF
natural affectation, which is peculiar to
this strange race.
