into fields in which they had not

A point in this part of the ad-
dress was delivered in manner
which was enthusiastically and con-
tinually applauded,
ut is said that once upon a time
the jays and kites assembled and
demanded of the eagle that she
give her eyrie on the cliff. The
eagle raised her back and showed
her claws, and the jays and kites
flew screaming away.
"Now, the jays of Wall Stree
and kites of Lombard Street hav
assembled and have audaciously de-
manded of the American eagle that
she give up her eyrie; that she sur
render to them her proud and ele-
waited position and become subject
to all their demands. Oh, my
friends, if that proud old American
bird will just show her beak and
sharpen her claws, the jays of
hypocrisy and kites of corruption
will fly away, screaming and chat
tering before her, The voice of the
American people and their actions
constitute the American Eagle"
AS soon as Mr.. G. S. Groom, of
Mooringsport, La, learned that the
surveying party were fixing to give
his town the 90 by with the rails of
the K. G, p, & G road, he organized
a movement in his town to get the
road to build through there, He
went to Kansas City, and so well
did he talk that the management of
construction ordered the rails laid
into Mooringsport and the original
curve route be abandoned. We
congratulate Mr., Groom on his good
luck in obtaining the K, G. P, & G.,
road for his little city. Moorings-
port, by this, will make quite a
town.

Rosary.

CADIZ, October li.-There was a pro.
cession Of the Rosary here tonight that
resulted in somewhat serious attack
on those in line. AS the procession,
which was headed by the Bishop Of Ca
diz, was passing through the streets,
a number OF idle workingmen were met.
who did not approve OF the religious pa
rade. They shouted: I'VE want work:
not sermons. Go. kill the insurgents
In Cuba!'
Not satisfied with thus insulting the
clergy, they hustled those who were taxi
ing part in the procession, and
then stoned the priests. The volleys
were so heavy that the priests and their
followers were compelled to take refuge
in church. The mob then stood OUT
side. hooting and jerring. Until dispersed
by the police. During the stone-throw-
ing the Bishop was slightly injured.
The mob made feeble resistance To
the police. and many OF the rioters were
wounded.
The Project complains that the trouble
arose from the fact that the Bishop
did not advise him that the procession
was to be held, thus not allowing him 10
take timely measures TO protect those who
took part In 1t.
