and Matanzas, to the borders OF the
province of Havana, might have been
promptly locked up as lunatic. YET
there are the Cubans, scouting near the
borders Of the province of Havana, hav-
ing passed Campos and the picked
troops of Spain, civil guards volunteers
and guer:llas.
Everybody here is asking what the
next step will be. Can Campos catch
up to or check the enemy in any way?
The next two days should furnish the
answer to all questions on the subject.
In spite of the rapid
APPROACH OF THE CUBANS,
there is no very great outward excite
ment here, although among the public
officials and the masses Of the pOpula-
ton there IS an air of anxious expec-
fancy which tells the tale better than
any words could do.
The hurried movements of the troops
garr.soning the forts the going and COM
ing Of orderlies, the hasty despatch of
reinforcements to the front, the general
state of feverish unrest, all show that
the news from Matanzas is of the ut
most importance, and that the end of
the campaign. one way or the other, is
believed to be approaching.
Even the most stubborn of the Span
ish officers agree that the march of Co
mez and Maceo across Santa Clara and

CHRISTMAS DAY WORE AWAY
IN Havana with continued anxiety IN all
circles, the news Of the morning Of the
continued advance of the inSurgent forces
being confirmed by details coming in
through the day and embellished by
flying rumors OF the close approach OF
Gomez and his army. AS a matter of
fact. there was very little accurate in
formation Of the exact whereabouts Of
the insurgents or the course they were
taking, the military authorities them
selves being much at fault as TO where
the enemy was 10 be met.
Il was announced this afternoon that
Campos was expected to arrive in Ha-
vana at o'clock from Guanabana, near
Matanzas, where he slept last night,
making the seventh change of his head
quarters in Two weeks. The arrival
here Of the Captain General makes it
evident that the base Of operations
against the insurgents must now be
Havana direct.
The Captain General was accorded an
enthusiastic reception upon his arrival
here by the city authorities and by
committee representative of all the po-
liGcal parties.

A novel method Of disseminating daily
forecasts Of the weather by means of
postofHce letter stamps is the Outgrowth
Of the recent convention Of weather
prophets at Indianapolis. The system
has been adopted in two ofices-those
Of New Brunswick, Ne. and Milwau-
kee.
The idea was proposed by Super!n-
tendent Chaffee, Of the State Weather
Service Of Alabama, and was thus
brought 20 the attention Of Postmaster
General Wilson. who authorized all
postmasters to adopt it at their discre-
ton. The new stamp in addition to
giving the hour az which the letter
reaches the office, gives the weather
forecast Of the following day. The plan
is so simple, so feasible and so mex
pensive that it will be likely to receive
general adoption; and it may prove es-
pecially useful in sections not supplied
with daily newspapers.

The Pacific Cable Company was IN
corporated a day or TWO ago under the
laws Of New Jersey The object Of this
corporation is not only 10 lay cables on
the floor of the Pacific Ocean, but also
TO obtain a subsidy from Congress. 1t
is not apparent that the United States
Government has sufficient pecuniary or
political interests in Hawaiian cable
to Justify its guaranty Of the interest
on the bonds Of a commercial company
which proposes to establish telegraphic
communication with the South Sea ISL
ands. The hunger for subsidies on the
part Of the promoters is the one feature
OF this scheme which is Of public con-
Germ. and the efforts Of the company to
obtain governmental assistance VII

Comparatively few passes were issu-
ed by the health authorities of this city,
yesterday. Public opinion is against
the issuance of an passes what
ever, holding that if the exigencies
of the situation are such as to require
a quarantine, it ought to be made abb
soute. The plea that this cannot be
done meets with no favor in any quar-
ter, for everybody knows it is untrue.
For the health authorities to order a
quarantine and then issue a hundred
and fifty passes in one day is childish.

NEXT WEEKS OPERA.

The Gilbert & Sullivan operas at the
Howe Opera House next week will make
brilliant opening for the fall season.
The organization comes here highly en-
dorsed by the public of Lowell, Mass,
as the following from the Star attests
Miss Ethel Balch has gone through the
summers work steadily winning friends
for herself, and the way she has imper-
, sonated the various characters assigned
to her has been pleasing in the extreme.
Her voice has a good range and she
sings with understanding and accuracy" )"
In every part she has played Mrs. Gil
bert has added much to the general eff
feet of the whole presentation. Her
singing is always in good taste and in
everything her graceful movements leud
a charm that captivates the onlooker.
Miss Katherine Powers is another who
has given much to those who have at
tended the theatre from time to time.
Many of the parts she has assumed have
been well adapted to her style OF acting
and together with clever Frank Ranney
she has more than once kept her hearers
i'll laughter.
The chorus work this year has been
superior to other years and at times the
audience became enthusiastic in the
extreme.
Mr.. Gilbert himself assumed part in
the early summer but little need be said.
His acting as Gaspard, the miser, in the
Chimes, was such that many went to the
theatre with no other purpose than to
witness.
The work of the orchestra throughout
has been praiseworthy and not little Of
the seasons success is due to that. The
way Mr., Dore has conducted has given
spirit to the work"
