Cuban government who has arrived here,
says exact and detailed information Is in
the hands of the Spanish offic ais as to
places throughout the United States where
arms and ammunition are being collected
and shipped to the Cuban insurgents. The
important rendezvous are stated to be
Philadelphia. Perth Amboy, \. j.; Savan-
nah, Fernandez and other points South,
concerning which information is being
laid before the Spanish minister at
Washington, which is likely to form the
basis for a request for the issuance of
orders by the attorney general TO the dis
trIct attorneys TO appreheEd the parties
alleged to be engaged in a systematic for
warding of revolutionary supplies.

BALLOT LAW DISPUTE IN IOWA.
Defeated Candidate In Convention Wants
To Go on the Ticket.

Defeated Candidate In q Convention Wants
to Go on the Ticket.
JEFFERSON, Sept. 16.-A peculiar point
in connection with the Australian ballot
system Of voting has arisen, for which no
provision appears to have been made by
the lawmakers. At the Republican county
convention Dr.. O. W. Lowcry, a candidate
for representative, was defeated by p. 4
Smith. Nothing had been heard or said
concerning the matter until last Thurs
day, when DIR. Lowery appeared before the
county auditor and asked if nomination
papers had been filed for the Office of rep.
rcsentative on the Republican ticket, tina.
being the first day for filing. He was in
formed that none had been presented, and
thcreupon produced nomination papers
signed by twenty Republican voters OF
the county asking that his name be placed
AT the head of the Republican county ticket
on the ballot, as provided by law.
The county auditor said he would take
the matter under adviscment, but it is un.
derstood that the demand will not be
granted. DIR. Lowery holds that the law
docs not take cognizance of political con-
ventions, and that in its eyes nomination
papers signed by twenty-five Republicans
are just as legal as the nomination papers
signed by the chairman and secretary of a
convention, and that. being a Republican
and the first to present papers, he is en-.
titled TO the place demanded In case this
is refused the matter will be appealed.

as to his intention of taking measures

is brought to their attention, and it is my
intention to proceed Mt once toward the

Perpetual Ignorance for Negroes.

COLUMBIA, Sept. 16.-In the South Car
DINA constitutional convention one of the
measures proposed provides for the impo-
sition of an annual tax of mills, the pro-
ceeds of which, together with all poll taxes
paid, shall be set aside for common
school fund This fund is to be divided
into two parts. That paid by the white
people is to be separate from that paid by
the negroes, and the taxes collected from
each race are to be devoted to the education
Of the children of each race. If an educa-
tional qualification for suffrage is passed,
Us seems likely, the negroes will never be
able to vote in any numbers, as they will
not have the school facilities for getting
the education.

New ~eattle Theater Procromme,

A noticeable and very gratifying feature
in connection with the opening of the the
atFical season was the appearance at the
Seattle theater on Wednesday night of an
interesting and nicely gotten-up pro-
gramme sheet. Before the curtain rises
and during the intervals the majority of
an audience require something to occupy
their attention in the lulls of conversation.
4 bright and entertaining programme sheet
very agreeably fills in these intermissons
and adds to the pleasure of the theater-
goer. The requirements of such a publica-
ton are very satisfactorily met in The
Mirror, the new programme sheet of the
Seattle theater. Catering to the gratifica-
ton of the pleasure-loving. money-spend-
ing portion Of the community it's character
is high class in style, matter and patron
age. and the efforts Of its publishers seem
to be well appreciated by the hrst-class
business houses OF the city, whose inter-
ests, as well as the pleasure and enter
tainment OF theater-goers, will be adj
vanced by the continued success OF the
publication.
