SPAIN PROTESTS.
Filibustering Expeditions Being Fit
ted Out in the United States.
60 be continued.) }

Mr.. Delome, the Spanish minister
to the United States, has called the
attention of the state department to
allegations that filibustering exped-
itions against the Spanish authorities
in Cuba are being fitted out in the
bayous of the lower Mississippi river.
The communication also states
that armed citizens of some of the
southern states often paraded with
arms with view of joining some of
these outgoing expeditions, or at
least to give active encouragement
to the Cuban insurrectionists. Some
of the statements made covered facts
of which the United States govern
ment can take no official notice, and
were too meagre to warrant official
action. 1t is believed at the state
department that there is little truth
in the reports which reach here from
the south of the fitting out of war
like expeditions against Cuba. But
should it be shown that expeditions
are being organized which come
within the propositions of interna-
tional law and our treaties with
Spain, there will be no delay in
bringing the parties concerned to
Justice.

Il like the tone Of your PROPOSE
tion," said the mining king as he
leaned backward in his chair and ex-
PEELED from his mouth a cloud of
smoke that for moment hid the big
features of Mr.. ROCKEFELLER from
view. He called to the porter for
another bottle of Pomeroy's and con-
tinued the conversation.
Mr.. ROCKEFELLER was mining sup
erintendent of no ordinary preten-
sions. He was at this time operating
a large mine at the town of Jayville
which constantly employed about
200 men, and yielded as much ore as
any mine of its class in the county.
Mr.. ROCKEFELLER did not own the
mine, but by graft he managed to
insert into the owners confidence he
held his position-that of overseeing
this mine and others owned by the
same men and their associates. For
his services he received salary Of
$4,000 per annum, sum altogether
too small for the superintendent s
extravagant requirements, yet vastly
large in proportion to the services
rendered. For the affairs of his
great office-the labor connected
therewith-was left to coldblooded,
unprincipled, yet obedient subagents,
who held a sort of vassalage over the
men employed. The superintendent,
or the ''soop," as he was commonly
abbreviated, was seldom actively on
the ground, but resided at Highnigh,
the metropolis of all the surrounding
country, and the home of many
''soops," peers, nabobs. old sports.
and broken down flunkeys.
They enjoyed somewhat metro
politan conditions, having sermons
lectures, libraries, clubs, and the
lower grades of variety shows which
they might attend. They could pat
ronize magnificent hotels, with fash

were gambling rooms and hurdy.
gurdy houses. There were salvation
army and Y. M. c. A. rooms which
they could frequent, and around
about were parks and gardens to in
crease the diversity and variety o.
ever-present pleasures; thus each and
all could find amusement suited tt
the temper of his own peculiar inclin
alton.
Mr.. Rockefeller was frequently seer
at the clubrooms at the great metro
polls. He played 'freeze out" fo
the drinks, and sometimes in1ulgec
in a game of "draw." He had beer
known to play at draw, and pay hi
debts in checks which, according t.

ed. He happened at this particular
time to be out of job, having sur.
reptitiously, as some said, misapplied
certain sums Of money left in his
charge by a former employer, and
stealthily left the country for the
benefit of his health. He was a glib
talker, a delightful companion, and
possessed of manners calculated to
make him popular in all classes of
society. He was little swift. not
too swift, but just swift enough to
catch the good graces of old Rocky
feller, who had heard his proposition.
He would go ovor to Jayville and
start company store. He would
stay on the ground and operate the
store. He would make himself pop
ular with the masses, and keep tab
on the employees of the mine.
They would trade at his store, or
not work at the mine. The situa-
tions at the mine would be filled by
men whom they could easily control.
Laterly they could open boarding
house, saloon, bank, a hard ware
store, butcher shop, and all the
needed adjuncts Of a company town.
1t was a capital scheme. They
could freeze out all other mercantile
enterprises, then sell their goods at
their own figures. AS for newspa-
pers, they would not need them, for
the bulk of such men as they would
employ would be broad shouldered
and razor faced fellows who would
not read paper if it were given to
them. They could increase the work
ing force till nobody would work
more than half time; then all the pay
roll of the mine would return to the
''soop" and his hirelings in the shape
of profits. Thus did the aforesaid
Slighduck argue for his mammoth
proposition, which was so heartily
approved by "soop" ROCKEFELLER.
The latter thought old Slighduck a
fine fellow in which opinion they
were both agreed. They decided to
proceed at once with the prelimin-
aries and thought they might be run
ming at full tilt within sixty days
They rung up a servant and called
for more wine, and for the next three
or four hours they constituted a sort
of mutual admiration society, in
which each was lost in his profound
love and reverence for the other.

TRIED TO WAKE PAPA.
Burial of Frank Smith YeSter-
day.
The Pitiful Ignorance and Plea of a
Babe OF the Muir
dered Man.

The funeral of Frank W. Smith &C.
Cured yesterday forenoon. Those who
attended it say that they never saw
anything SO sorrowful and hope that
they may never see anything like it
again. The grief of the widow was
with awe, for there was something
awful about the stricken dwelling, she
met them with, "Oh this is not the
home it was when you were here last"
But touching as this woman's grief and
greeting were there was something else
infinitely more touching. In the room
where the husband and father died his
coffined body lay, so natural under the
EN- balmer's art that he seemed only to
sleep.
His little year-old baby who had
been wakened by the shot on that fear
full Sunday night and had seen the
blood spoutlng from his breast but had
forgotten it, kept trying to reach the
coffin. Some one had held her over it
and she had seen her sleeping father.
Since she was born he had never been
silent SO long and she tried to awaken
him. Papa, papa" she kept crying,
not in grief but in childish earnestness,
as she struggled toward the place where
he lay, only to be drawn back by tear
full friends. All the morning this pitt
full scene was enacted until the coffin
lid was finally screwed down and the
box holding the sleeping papa was car
ried to the hearse. So wrought upon
we're the neighbors of the murdered
man that one whose Christianity is not
dou bted, speaking for himself and other
neighbors, said after it was all over,
''If the man who murdered Smith had
been brought there, and it could have
been known beyond doubt that he was
the murderer, he would not have been
merely lynched, that is hung, but he
would have been skinned alive"
And those who heard him say it said,
Hanging would have been too good Tor
him."
Brief religious exercises were con-
Quoted at the house by Rev. W. A.
Harris of the M. E. church south.
The funeral procession made up of
the friends of the murdered man, and
every man who had known him was his
friend, and those drawn by a morbid
curiosity on account of the manner OF
his death, was the longest that ever
followed funeral car to the Phoenix
cemetery.
At the grave the burial service was
read. the body was lowered and covered
and all was over with Frank Smith who
had been born exactly, thirty-one years
eight months and two days before.
The coroner's inquest was concluded
yesterday morning. The return of the
officers the evening before had not sim
plified the labors of the jury so that all
that could be said was that 1.-THE de-
ceased had come to his death by pistol
shot fired by persons unknown to the
jury"
Hope that the murderers will be
brought to justice has not been aban-
doned. There is not much to work on.

COMMISSIONERS GLENN AGAIN.
This Time He Is Endorsed by the County
Board of Education.

At a meeting of the county board OF
education, held Monday, the following
resolutions were adopted
Whereas, State School Commissioner
Glenn, by invitation OF Commissioner
Whitchard kindly visited our county
and made an address to our teachers
which was both highly entertaining and
instructive, clearly demonstrating to our
minds that he has for his highest pur-
pose the eminent success of the public
school interest,
Be it resolved, That we, the board of
education of Terrell county, do most
heartily endorse the administration OF
Mr.. Glenn, particularly that portion in
which he construes the law as to make
the school and calendar month coinci-
dent. since in so doing the law merely
requires of the teacher the same number
of days service. that is required OF every
person employed in every other vocation
in which stipulated sum is given for
months service. We fail to sec any
good reason for making an exception IN
the case of teachers, unless because ut
has been the custom from Tune lmmemo-
rial" And, also, we do, With equal
enthusiasm, endorse that clause OF his
contracts with teachers which requires
them to make a certain average in order
to secure pay for FULL school-ln
other words, in order to receive pay for
full school the teacher must first teach
such school. Doubtless Commissioner
Glenn recognizes the great need of doing
something which will stimulate both
teacher and patron to secure for their
schools a regular attendance. He doubt
less also recognizes the fact that great
hlndrance to the accomplishment of such
an end, particularly in white schools, is
the fact that in many instances the
schools are filled with teachers who are
only teaching ''public SCHOOL, until a
better position offers itself in the way of
a clerkship or some other avocation. Such
eacher cannot possibly feel the neces-
sary interest in the ultimate success of a
school, hence the imperative necessity of
adopting some measure which will ac-
c0mpllsh the object above mentioned.
We believe we recognize in Mr.. Glenn's
administration disposition or purpose
to do that which will most advance the
general public school interest, though it
may seemingly work little hardship
upon some, but, at the same time, doing
no one an injustice.

STAKES FOR GAMBLERS.
Novel Way of Using City Funds in Atlanta.

ATLANTA, July 4.-The trial of S. S.
Moore for gambling, and the imposition
of fine of $500 upon him by Judge
Westmoreland, today, disclosed rather
peculiar use to which the city's money
is beng pu5 by the police department.
According to the disclosures, part Of
the police fund has been set aside by the
police board to be used in stalking "stool
pigeons in Ipoker games and the like,
the plan of the department being to cast
this money upon the waters with the
hope of getting it back with high inter.
est in the way of fines when the traps
fall.
An ex-policeman named Mccoy gave
the snap away upon cross examination.
Chief Detective Wright upon the stand
corroborated McCoy's story, admitting
that the department has fund especial
ly for the purpose of stalking" decoys
in the festive jackpot whenever it is
possible to do SO, it being the part of the
decoy to let the police in at the right
moment and also to prosecute before the
grand jury.
