ANOTHER SPANISH WARSHIP LOST.
Cruiser Cristobal Colon Wrecked on the
Cuban Coast.

Cruiser Cristobal Colon Wrecked on the
Cuban Coast.
Havana, Oct. 1.-Another Spanish
warship has been lost. The cruiser
Cristocal Colon has been wrecked near
Cape Antonio and, 1t is believed, viii!
prove total loss.
The Cristobal Colon is second class
cruiser Of about 1000 displacement and
1900 horse power. She is estimated to
have had about 300 officers and men.
The disaster occurred off Colorado
Point, in the Gulf Of Gauadina, south Of
the town of Mantua, in the province o.
P:nar del Rio, near Havana.
The Christobal Colon appears to have
encountered the severe weather off
Cape Antinfo, and to have put into the
Gulf of Guadiana for shelter. There
she tried TO ride out the fierce gale and
neavy seas; but was slowly driven
towards Colorado Point, off which there
IS dangerous reef, known as the Colo
RADIO reef When the commander of the
cruiser saw that he could not make
head against the storm, he attempted
to. anchor, according to stories told
here: but the anchor would not hold
and the cruiser was driven ashore.

He Knew His Mother.

Mrs. Wilson tells a story about Car
lyle and Thackeray. which has been told
before, but which may be new to some
re.ders. Several artists at the Royal
Academy dinner. sitting In the neighbor-
hood of these great men. were expressing
their enthusiasm about Titan. His
glorious coloring Is fact about Titan ''
said one. "And his glorious drawing Is
another fact about TitIan." cried a sec
ond. So they went on till Carlyle, who
had been listening in silence 10 their
rhapsodies. interrupted ttem by saying.
with a slow dellberation which had It's
own impressive emphasis: And here
sit, m. made In the image Of God,
who KIN. W. nothing about Titan and
cares nothing about Titan; and that's
another fact about Titan"
Thackeray was slipping claret at the
moment. He paused, and bowed courte-
ously to Carlyle. Pardon me-" he said.
that Is not fact about Titan. But 1t
is a fact-and a lamentable fact-about
Thomas Carlyle"

Training q Locomotive.

Locomotives that are intended for ex-
press trains are put through course Of
preliminary training, that their power
and speed may be thoroughly tested.
When an engine Is taken out Of the
shop it is run for two or three weeks on
one of the local branches, to train 1t, so
to speak, for fast running. By this
means all the bearings and journals con-
nected with the running gear become set
tied to their work; for should anything
moniously, there is ample time to adjust
the defect. Usually the new engine
proves troublesome on account OF its pro-
pensity to make fast time, and at almost
every station the train is found to be a
little ahead Of schedule time. and must
wait for from ten seconds TO a minute.

A rrOg With Four Wings.

The curiosity of tropical Africa is the wonderful flying frog, first described by Bishoff of the equatorial African expe- dition, which returned to Europe in the fall of 1894. This oddity of the reptile family is about the size of common bullfrog and resembles other members of the order of batrachians in every thing but its feet, each of which is webbed and enormously enlarged, so much so as to form splendid substitutes for true wings. The creature has five toes on each of the other two, which makes four separate membranes on each of its hind feet and three on each fore foot, or If ill all. In his description of it Bishoff says, Each leg terminates ill sort of fan, and with these the lit tie reptile paddles the air like a locust, or like partially fiedged bird testing its piniOns for the first time''
 Although somewhat awkward in its flight, the winged frog can dart through tho air at speed of about ten yards per second and can keep itself going for ward at that rate for from 10 to 15 sec onds. The average distance covered by these spurts of grasshopperlike flight is from 75 to 125 yards, but Bishoff men, tions instances where the flying frog cleared sandy stretches 200 yards in width.

THE CHINESE SITUATION.
Authorities at Washington Have Confidence
 In Minister Denby,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-Neither the state nor tho navy department has receiv- ed any information confirmatory of the newspaper reports that the Chinese off cials have yielded in their position and are now permitting foreigners to be present at the investigation into tho attacks on the missionaries.
 The report, however, is credited here by those acquainted with the conditions of affairs in China and who have felt all along that the imperial government would see the justice of permitting foreign rep resentation on the commission. It is felt here that the affairs of the Americans in China while in charge of Minister Denby and Admiral Carpenter are in responsible hands, and that they will see that adc- quate measure of protection is afforded to the extent of their ability.
 s The navy department was informed of the arrival of the United states ship Mo nocacy at Chemulpo, Korea. This is the light draw vessel of the Asiatic squadron which recently left China for her present station.
 The state department has received q cable from Consul Read at Tien-tsin stat ing that the cholera has disappeared.
