Spnin's Force il. cuba.

The most recent information is
that there are $4,000 Spanish
troops in Cuba. and that the cos.
OF maintaining the land and naval
force of Spain in the present war
on that island is about three
millions of dollars month. I'm.
poverishea and credltless, Spain
Cannot stand this drain long
without lecuperation from some
source which is not now in sight.
1t is argued that on account Of
this enormous expense there Will
be a reaction of sentiment in
Spain against prosecuting the
war further. and that home rule
will be granted TO Cuba. Too
late. The rebellion has gone on
SO long, aid has assumed such
formidable proportions. that
there should be no compromise.
Nothing but the complete indie
pendence Of Cuba should be ac-
cepted as the price for closing
the conflict. The people of the
United States will not look in,
differently on the spectacle OF
Spain compromising for the pres.
cut in order TO rest and gather
new strength for prosecuting \
people who are under no moral
or lawful obligation to her.

An Ancient Banging Cage.

The steamer I. w. Arrow.
smith brought to Washington
the Colonial hanging cage dug
up near Bluff Point, in King
George county, Va. The penalty
for petit treason under cd law
of England was inflicted where a
serf killed his feudal lord and
was extended in many cases to
the murderer of a husband by his
wife. In America the willful
murder of a master by a. slave
was held TO be petit treason, and
was punished by hanging in
chains.
The last example of that pun.
ishment in this section OF the
country was given near Alexan.
dria in 1767-6s, when several
negro slaves were convicted at
the Fairfax Court, then held at
that village, and hung in chains
in an opening in the woods near
where Christ Church now stands.
1t is probable that the King
George cage, with its victim was
hung in the air many months
and was buried some time before
the Revolutionary War. The
cage and lis contents are the
property of a Mr.. Cawood, Of
King George county, and will be
sent to the Smithsonian Institu.

The Chicago News has "railroad hog" story that is new and good: A "railroad hog" the other day piled the space next to him in car seat with his bundles, and when gentleman asked him if any one was to occupy it replied that the bundles belonged to man who was temporarily in the smoking car. ''All right" said the gentleman, II will sit in the seat till he comes," and he proceeded to remove the bundles. Pretty soon the owner of the bundles arrived at his destination, and he started to gather up his effects. But the gentleman at once put veto on this, with the remark: "You can't take these bundles; you yourself said they belonged to man in the smoker" The fellow got mad and abusive, but the gentleman was memorable. Finally the conductor was called in, who delivered his dictum as follows "If the bundles are not claimed by any one on the train, then by coming around to the depot tomorrow and iden- ttfying them satisfactorily we will give them to you" The mans face was red with rage, but he could do nothing. So, amid the laughter of the passengers, he rushed out of the car just as the trainwas pulling out. And he meekly came around to the depot for his bundles the next day.
