QUARANTINE NOTES.

We quote from the Advertiser that
"Mr. Thurston believed it would be
better to do something than sit
still" This expression is of the very
essence of Mr.. Thurston's character.
He must be doing something for
fear that his partner will get his
work in, for "Satan finds some mis-
chief still for idle hands to do"
There is an ever increasing number
OF people on these islands who think
it unfortunate that Mr.. Thurston
could not sit still in January, 1893,
and we are firmly of the belief that
even Mr.. Thurston will think so
before his partner flies away with
him, as he surely will
A practical question as TO the
quantity OF time available for the
campaign of whitewashiug suggest

practical answer from a man who
knew what he was talking about,
and it finally dawned upon the as
ssmbled wisdom that for lack of
ammunition the campaign must be
deferred.

THE SAD SIDE OF WAR.
Distressing Scenes in Spain Attend

Distressing Scenes in Spain Attend.
ant on the Departure of Troops.
Miss Anna F. Webb Of Oxford, Pa, who
is teaching in San Sebastian, Spain, writes
as follows to her father, Rev. Edward
Webb, describing the manner in which the
war in Cuba affects the people of Spain:
THE principal thing that occupies our
minds and hearts outside of school affairs
is the embarkation of the Cuban troops.
Last Thursday one regiment left, and the
next day another. The whole town was
wild over it. There have been high masses
in the street, with affairs. decorations and
processions; banquets and parades by day
and illuminations by night. When the SOL
diers took the train at II o'clock on Thurs
day and Friday nights the whole city
poured forth en- masse to the railroad sta
ton, our family, with the older students.
included. 1t was most touching scene.
In spite of great enthusiasm, there was
fearful sadness. and the sobs were fire.
Quent as the cheers. The poor mothers
feel that their boys will have to fight fever
more than bullets. At the last minute
there was commotion. and people came
hurrying up to two of the men (boys they
really We're, bringing them their release.
Parents and friends at this last hour sue
ceeded in raising the money to pay for a
substitute, and save their boys from
going to Cuba. The excitement was tre-
mendouS.
"Oh, how / wish this farce of a war was
over! 1t is even worse than war itself, for
Spain is being frightfully impoverished.
Many young men are losing their educa
ton and prospects in life. while other poor
families at home are almost dying without
their support. Then. with il all, there
seems to be no glory only death in a fever
hospital, where. probably, many die
from neglect as from disease itself. 1t Is
all So terrible. 1 do hope the United States
will not interfere. for that would only pro-
long the agony and endanger the relations
of the two Countries"

No one was present " hen the last scene
came save his son Allan and the members
Of his immediate family. His physician,
DR.. Whitaker, had not seen him since the
night before. The judge had been uncon-
scious since midnight ard death finally
came like calm and peaceful sleep.
Judge Thurman had been growing rapidly
worse since Wednesday night. and at no
been hoped for. The immediate cause of
his death was the fall he sustained some
weeks ago, narrated in yesterdays Star.
His son said three days ago that his father
was feeling brighter and better than he
had at any time SiEce his fall.
Judge Thurman was eighty-two years old
November IL, and had 1t not been for his
accident he might have lived for a number
of years, for the feebleness of age had by
no means overcome him. He had not been
able to leave his home for more than a
year, but he retained much of the power of
his once vigorous mind.
1t was decided last night to have the
funeral at the residence at 10 am. Satur-
day.
