Reaching the platform, his discom-
fort was visibly increased by not knowing
what TO do with hat and cane, and so he
stood there, the target for 10, 900 eyes,
holding cane in one hand and hat in
the other, the very picture of helpless
embarrassment After some hesitation
he pushed the cane into corner of the
railing, but could not find place for
the hat except on the floor, where l
could see he did not like to risk it.
Douglas, who fully took in the situa-
ton, came to the rescue of his old
friend and rival and held the precious
hat until the owner needed it again, a
service which; il predicted two years
before, would probably have astonished
him.

friends of TILES, the young motel clerk
who was arrested ut Marietta last

Church Members sued forLIbel.
Special to the Register.


Romney, w. Va, March 19.-We
have had breeze in the 1eighborhood
over a difference between the pastor
and members OF the colored Methodist
Church. There has been friction for
more than year, and the tension had
grown so Or [ that while the pastor,
Rev. J &c. son, was absent at con-
fere- .nrAo,oN\&, several of his men,
80 sSS'-dd been subjected TO a
40 'Jch of the discipline of the
auoOh, took the favorable opportunity
y attacking him with some severity
through the columns of the Hampshire
Review without signature. The pastor
on his return demanded the names OF
the editor, and it was thought that he
would bring suit against the paper on
the editors refusal TO divulge the
names; but this morning Messrs. Mon
roe and Woods brought suit for libel
against five of the members of the
church for the pastor laying the dam
ages at one thousand dollars The de-
PENDANTS are among our most RESPONSE
BILE and best to do colored citizens. The
pastor claims to have found the church
considerably in debt when he took
charge, and to have cleared all the in
debtedness off except SS6, and to have
added some property TO the church in
addition. He feels himself much
agrieved, and shows a right good spirit
under strong provocatiOn, rs he alleges.
He has closed his connection with the
Romney church, and goes TO Grafton

Another Vessel Called Upon to Halt
By a Spanish War Ship.
She Was Flying the English Flag,
and When Signaled to Stop, Did

Unmolested - Everything I'm
settled in Cuba-More Spanish
Troops Expected to Arrive.

Philadelphia, March 19.-The Earn
Line steamship Earnwood, Captain
Rogers, arrived at Richmond to-day
from st. Jago De Cuba, the scene of
the Cuban hostilities, laden with full
cargo of iron ore, but the ship, which
flies the British flag, was in no way
molested by Spanish authorities.
While on the outbound passage,
when eight miles east of Guantanamo,
on March 10, she was hailed by the
Spanish torpedo catcher, Neuva Es-
pana, but hove to, saluted and passed
on about her business. Captain Rog-
ers, who is an old trader between this
port and Cuba, said to-day that every
onein St Jago is talking of the lnslr-
rection which in many portions OF the
interior has been quite serious.
A large number of troops from
Spain were expected to arrive at st.
Jago shortly after the Earnwood left,
and the general belief in st. Jago is
that the insurrection
7 WILL BE PROLONGED
for some time, but will not be crowned
with success. However, it will have
a depressing effect on business.
Gust before we left" said Captain
Rogers, the Spanish troops captured
a boat containing two Germans, who
are held on suspicion of having land
ed leaders OF the insurrection on the
Cuban shores. st. Jago is now under
martial law, the civil authorities hav-
ing handed over the reins to the gov
ernment.'
Everything is unsettled and peace
able citizens are of necessity forced to
keep within doors to avoid becoming
mixed up in the strife.
Captain Rogers, in speaking of the
general condition of affairs in Cuba,
gave it as his opinion that the trouble
would be a repetition of the former
insurrection in Cuba; it would, as be-
fore. be fully ten years before it would
be settled to the satisfaction of the
Spanish government.
