A Touching Christmas story.

Paris Letter in New orleans Pcayune.
NJ Jeane Darlene relates in the Nou-
velle Revue a modern and tragical Christ
mas story, which is both strange and true,
IT was in 1870, in IL chateau OF the Berry
country, invaded then by the Prussians.
The children of the house had built up a
snow man, and at The side of this mani
mate statue a Uhlan was sentenced to re-
main motionless on horseback for several
hours in the terrible cold and stormy
weather.
Impassive under the terrible snow
storm, the soldier was soon covered with
it, was his horse as Wen. Flakes fell
on his beard and froze there; but, care

sumed against the t'bonhomme Noel

The constant white immobility made OF

Before the billiards. icy tread

And purple egg and pimple squash

And wOrse-Ah! worse than all beside,

And round the tall banana head
Its stately limbs hang limp and dead.
Within the costly Slated dome
Where proud pineapples find a home
The blizzard wrestled in his might
And knocked the owner out of sight
He nipped the bloom on Peento's cheek,
And made the fragrant guava sick;
Then, dipping downward, played old

With many poor mans "tater patch"
And all around and in between
Were many saddened faces seen;
For all the Cracker heart holds sweet

And freezes all things stiff as starch (;
But come he soon or come he late.

SPANISH ATROCITIES.

Massacre of Inoffensive Cubans,
Mostly Women and Children, Age

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Atrocities by
Spaniards as revolving as, those commit
ted by the japanese at Port Arthur have
just been reported to the Cuban revolu-
tionary party in New York. Enrique
Trujilo, editor of FL Porvenir, received a
letter today from Juan Mespons Franco,

the commander-in-chief of the irsurgent
army. It is dated Headquarters in Field
Aug. 80. aud describes the capture and
recapture of the city of Barre, and the
massacre of 81 inoffensive Cubans-most-
ly women and childrei--by the Spaniards
under General Garrido. On Tuesday morn
ing, according to Colonel FRANCOIS letter,
company of insurgents under Jose Rabi
surprised the Spanish garrison in the fort
ress commanding the city Of Barre, killed
more than 20 men and took 30 prisoners.
They captured large supply of arms and
persuaded the prisoners to enlist in the
insurgent ranks.
An hour later three companies of Span
iSh troops under command of Garrido
came up and after a. short but sharp re-
sistance the Cubans fled leaving the fort
ress again in the hands of the invaders.
Soon after the fort had been regarri-
soned with Spaniards, one of the COM
panies broke loose and began to pillage
the city. Commander Garrido himself,
Colonel Franco states, led the uniformed
rioters. Every human creature who came
in their path was rtthlessly slain. With
in five minutes the streets of Barre were
deserted by the panic-strcken natives
but the Spaniards followed them into
their houses ana their own room. Age.
sex and condition were wholly disregartled
by these liveried butchers, says Colonel
Franco.

CARLISLE COMMENDED.

LANCASTER, Pa, Sept. 5.-The
Seventh General Assembly of Demo-
cratic societies in Pennsylvania met
in this city today, about 600 delegates
being present.
Colonel D. f. Magee was unani-
mously chosen temporary chairman.
Because of the inability of Secretary
Carlisle and Postmaster-General Will
son TO be present, the mass meeting
announced for tonight has been aban-
doned and a general reception sub
stituted. The convention adopted reso-
lutions c0ngratulating the people on
the general prosperity of the country
and the revival Of trade as a result of
Democratic measures; declaring the
late depression due to the Sherman
silver law and Mckinley tart law
and that industries have been re-
viyed by the Wilson bill, and re-affirm-
ing the platform of the last national
and state Democratic conventions, es-
pecially in favor OF tariff reform and
sound money.
The platform expresses confidence
In the wisdom and patriotism of
President Cleveland and "our great
secretary eff the treasury, j. G. Car
isle"
In conclusion the resolutions oppose
the unit rule in casting votes for del
egates to the national convention.

WALLER CASE.
Growing Feeling That France Has
Purposely Sought Delay.


Purposely Sought Delay.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.-The state
department has been advised that the
record in the Waller court martial,
for which the French authorities found
it necessary to send to Madagascar,
is expected to reach Alden on the Red
Sea about the 18th instant. After its
arrival there some time will be re-
ouired for it's transmission to Paris,
and still more before 1t can reach
Washington, if it is decided to have It
examined here, so that 1t is expected
to be at least month before the de-
partment can be in full possession of
all the facts in the case.
In all probability nc further step
will be taken by the department in the
matter until the examination shall be
made. There is a growing feeling in
the department that France has pur-
posely sought delay in producing this
record, in the hope of causing the
United States to make a peremptory
and unconditional demand for Waller s
release. It is believed, if made, this
demand would be granted, and if
granted, Waller would be deprived of
all chance of securing indemnity and
the restoration of his land concession
without an examination Of the record,
which could not be demanded after his
release, it would be impossible to- show
that Waller had been unjustIy de-
prived of his property. The depart
ment is using every effort to- avoid

GOMPERS AND INQUIRE.
Given Hearty Reception in
Cardiff Yesterday,

CARDIFF. Sept, 5.--AIessrs. Samuel
Gompers and P. j. Mcclure, who rep
resent the United States in the Trades
Unions congress, were given a hearty
reception at this afternoons session.
President Jenkins, in welcoming the
American delegates, said: Although
geographically divided. the workers Of
America, Great Britain and Ireland
are united on all important questions
pertaining to the elevation of their
class
Mr.. Gompers, replying to the ad-
dress of President jenkins, spoke of
the solidarity Of feeling and sympa-
thy that existed among the trades
unions of the different countries
which are represented in this con-
gress, who, he said, we're of one blood
and had a common heritage. He look
ed forward to the day when all work
e1s speaking the English language
would unite with the workers of all
countries, struggling onward to the
attainment of that end for which the
whole past had been a perpetual en-
deayor, with the intensity of purpose
that would insure the accomplishment
Of great results.
Gompers said he believed the British
Trades Union congress and the Amer
lean Federation of Labor would COM
pare favorably with the British par
Lament or American Congress.
