HOME RULE
Would End the Existing
Troubles in Cuba.
General Campos May Renew and Try
TO Keep Previous Promises.

WASHINGTON, May 17.-Reports reach
ing here are TO the effect that Genera
Campos has advised the Spanish govern
ment TO allow him TO institute a series OF
reforms in Cuba as a means of bringing
the rebellion to an end. II is stated thai
the Spanish minister Of colonial affair.
has approved the plan, and IL will DO put
into execution at an early day. Is was by
such means chat General Csmpos brought
the former rebellion TO an end.
On Feb. 10, 1878, Csmpos issued pro
posal OF reforms, embracing eight articles
including amnesty to all who had borne
arms, surrender of the rebel bands in pri
vate, where they would not be subject To
humiliation, liberation of tho slaves, a re-
form OF the government, giving the same
privileges already enjoyed by Porto Rico,
and release OF all prisoners.
This was accepted by the rebels, and the
uprising, which had lasted 10 years, was
closed. General Campos was given the
name of "The Paciacator" which has
since been applied to him. Spain was
slow, however, in carrying out the prom.
ised plan of reform, and it is claimed that
some Of the promises were never kept
This has
Stimulated the Present Outbreak.
II is said that an offer of settlement at
tho present time in order to be acceptable
TO the rebel leaders would have to include
autonomy, or home rule for Cuba, oxpendi.
ture OF income from Cuban taxes on in.
tcrnal improvements instead of for Span.
ish war and naval expenses amnesty to
all engaged in the present uprising, and
the full execution Of reforms promised in
1878.
A few months ago the Queen Regent OF
Spain assented TO plan by which a Ger.
tain approach TO home rule was granted to
Cuba, but the rebellion broke out, and
Spain thereupon suspended the reforms
she WAS about to grant It is said these
now will be put into operation as part OF
the plan OF settlement
Tho conservative classes of Cuba are
said to be anXious for such a settlement
and tho radical element, it is thought, is
too much reduced by defeats to lose the
opportunity OF an honorable peace, assur.
Ing their personal safety.
The scheme proposed would secure
SPANS continued sovereignty over Cuba,
and yet would give the island u colonial
form Of government.

A Great state Fair.

The annual fair under the auspices OF
the MINI esota State Agricultural Soci-
ETY. will be held this year on the grounds
at Hamline, midway between St. Paul
and Minneapolis. Sept. 9th to 14th in
elusive. The big crop which has been
harvested in Minnesota this year is
likely to contribute most to making the
fair the biggest and best in the history
of the society. More interest mas al
ready been shown in the Forthcoming
exposition than in any prey ious year,
ard more inquiries are being made about
the affair. The society offers $22 900 in
premiums and prizes, of which $4,000 is
to be given to raisers of cattle, and a
like amount to breeders of horses. There
are liberal premiums also for the breed
ers OF sheep and swine, and for the poul-
try fanciers. The big crop which Mime
sofa has secured is known all over the
country and the prospects are that the
stock raisers from all over the country
will send their herds and studs to the
fair, and make the exhibit notable one.
Premium list will be sent on application
to E. w. Randall, Secretary, Hamline,

The Power of words.

Words, tor the most part. are mere ar
bitrary combinations OF characters, to
represent some thing or abstract idea,
and vet there are those which by associ-
alton have magic power. Shakespeare
speaks of"words to conjure WITH" and
IN the dark ages the astrologers and
maglcians had their mystical ords
which were supposed to have supernat-
ural powers, even to the raising of the
dead. Nations have had their peculiar
war cries, such as the old English For
England and st. George!"; the Moham-
medan Allah il Allah'';; and under the
influence of these mere words men have
gone cheerfully to the certain chance of
death. Other words bring up crowds OF
tender memories. like s.home" and
mother" A friend Of ours who was
wounded at Chicamauga told us that
when he was in the hospital. neighbor-
ing band one day played "Home, Sweet
Home" and he drew the blanket over
his head and cried like child. That is
the influence of words. Names OF places
often bring up delightful associations
when we hear them. The words. "Bur-

FIRE AND WATER
Blied to TIN e Extent of 8 ev.
eraI Hundred Dollars.

While most Of the Sank Centre people
were in church. or ought to have been.
on Sunday morning last, an alarm OF
fire rang out sharp and clear, and the
firemen responded with their usual alac-
ritv. The dwelling OF Mel. v. Billed, on
the north side of the river. was on fire,
and It looked as If the pretty home was
doomed. Smoke poured out OF every
crack and crevice between the shingles.
followed speedily by flames, and the en-
tire roof was ablaze. But the well-di-
rected efforts OF the firemen soon had it
under control, and within half hour
from the alarm the fire was out. but not
until the root was com .letely destroyed,
ard the interior badly disfgured with
smoke and water. The fre originated
in the roof and was first discovered by
Mr.. Billed, who was in the rear of the
house. His wife was experimenting the
preparations for dinner, and it was near
the kitchen chimney that the fire origin
ated, doubtless from defect. The chin
ney, while not considered an element of
danger, was MT ut all satisfactory to
Mr.. Billed, who seriously contemplated
having 1t rebuilt, as 1t did not go to the
ground but was supported on bracket.
He speedily gave the alarm. Fortunate
Nv, the newly extended water mains had
been provided with "A hy.lrant immedi-
ately in front Of his house. and the water
supply was abundant. and in few mill
utes streams OF walsv were being poured
upon the blazing roof. and he fire was
speedily extingnishei A large crowd oi
willing workers had assembled, and
everything in the way OF furniture, even
to his hall mantel. tie carpets and some
OF the doors, were removed. The piano
was considerably scratched, some OF the
furniture cracked and battered, the CAR
pets more or less soiled by water and
cinders, vet not him was reallvdestroyed.
His loss will probably reach $1,000. The
building was insured ior $3.50 and the
furniture Tor $1O5O-S3) 200 in all.
