ONE HE DIDN'T GET.
An Anecdote Of General BenjamIn r. But.
Ter and the Spoons.

1t was the Saunterer's good for
tune about n fortnight ago, to meet
a retired lawer whose stories of
soldiers and statesmen Of the past
thirty years filled out most delight
full evening. Here il one about
Butler:
During one of "Ben's'' political
campaigns he was to speak i'm hall
which had a small aperture over the
speakers desk.
Some of the younger and dare
devil element secreted themselves in
the loft from which the hole opened,
and at an impressive moment In the
Generals speech a huge wooden
spoon suspended by a cord was seen
descending slowly from the eceiling.
The effect upon the audience was
instantaneous, and amid the rOars
of laughter, I'm which even the digni-
fed occupants of the platform could
not help joining, the spoon pursued
it's downward course halting only
when directly opposite the speakers
desk.
Gen. Butler gazed calmly at the
cause of the merriment. Then,
reaching for the trophy, he said
gravely: Hello! There's one
dinn't get" And, pocketing the
prize, he resumed his address.

STILL UNDECIDED
As to Sending Out Warships to Prevent
Filibustering Expeditions.

Washington, June 10.-Secretary Her
bert said today that it was not yet deter
mined whether war vessel should be
sent to the Florida coast to prevent q
filibustering expedition going to assist
the Cuban rebels. Naval officers gener-
ally are of the opinion that there is no
necessity for such action by the United
States 1t is probable that the action
of the navy department will depend upon
Secretary of State Olney. If he desires
tbat a warship patrol the coast it no doubt
will be sent. The position of the state de-
nartment heretofore has been that it is the
duty of the United States to prevenb an
armed expedition from going to war upon
a nation or the possessors of a nation
with which we are at peace. There is
nothing to prevent the sales of arms or
munitions of war. 1t has been held here
tofore that torpedo boat taken apart ana
Skinned in sections could not be prevented

boat should be filed and sailed from a
port of the United States, this country
would be responsible. 1t has also been

The jury of view having allowed frog

a. The constitution of 1876 provides
that mo persons property shall be taken,
damaged or destroyed for, or applied to,
public use without adequate compensation
being made; =; and, when taken, eX-
cept for the use of the State, such COM

constitution simply required adequate

the time of the taking of the property in

court had approved this construction, with
the qualification that at the time of the
taking adequate provision must be made
to insure the speedy payment of the COM
pensation. (26 Texas, 5SS; 81 Texas,
5S9.) Therefore the convention of 1876
found two questions partially or wholly
settled: CD Actual payment of the com
pensation at the time of the taking was
not required, whether the right of emf

or by private persons or corporations.

cally cheered as they drove through the
streets which were lined with troops. His
majesty took his seat upon the throne with
the customary ceremony and in his speech
said:
"Ihe italian people have so clearly
manifested their opinion at the polls that
no doubt remains regarding the questions
which require the promptest discussion
by the assembly. The people recognize
that the finances of Italy occupy the fore
most place in this connection and the
most strict retrenchment of the eXpendi-
tures is necessary in order to raise Italy $
credit abroad. Parliament will then be
asked to devote itself to the important
question of communal finances and adj
ministration and to judicial reforms"
His majesty also said that he trusted
that this and other legislation would do
much TO draw together the various classes
Of the nonulation. Continuing, King Hum
bert dWelt at length upon the friendship
existing between Italy and Great Britain
and upon their cooperation in Africa,
adding that the policy of Italy in Africa

he relied upon the efforts of the mem

of national unity erected by his tather'
