Gladness Comes

With better understanding of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
zeal ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes That is why il is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that ii is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, TO note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
IL in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. II

COMP0S IN DANGER.
tai Are Aroused and Sc
dition is Rife.

New York, Jan. ia special from
Key West Fla, says that according to
private advices from Havana there was
great excitement on the exchange there
yesterday wednesday,, where much Sc
ditious talk was INDUCED in. Several
colonies and officers of volunteers who
were present made speeches against
Capt.-Gen Campos and a general protest
was expressed against his military IN
activity. One major of volunteers pro-
posed that Campos be either forced to re-
sign or be lynched, and the speech was
met with cheers from various Spanish
merchants.
The majority of the Spanish represen-
tatiVeS signed a petition to close the eX-
change and many favored closing the
stores as y protest against Campos per-
manence in the island. The Spanish
sentiment against him is increasing hour
~ and trouble is feared.
Madrid, Jan. 16.-Dispatches received
here from Havana say that the in
surgents have cut off all means of land
communication between that city and
the interior except by the short railroad
from Havana TO Mariana, in the province
of Havana, and over the still shorter
railroad between Ragla and Guiana bacoa,
suburbs of that city. Consequently the
steamships are the only means of COM
provinces which remain at the disposal
of the authorities.
There was considerable excited COM
ment yesterday and today over the word
ing of an editorial article which appeared
in the Diario Della Mariana yesterday,
containing some sensational statements
and headed, 'An Unbearable Situation"
The article declared frankly and i'll de-
fiance of the press censor that the time
has come for the government officials to
admit that the situation is really serious
and it entreated the government to
change it's present policy and, if neces-
sary. to put more men in the field, claim
ing that the revolution is annihilating
the commerce and industries of the ISL
and.
Several small skirmishes are reported
today from the province of Matanzas.
In the most serious of these encounters
the insurgents lost seven killed and had
five wounded and the troops lost three
killed and had four wounded.
Friction Between Cuban Leaders.
Key West, Fla. Jan 16.-Efforts have
been made to hush the matter up, but it
is evident that there is a great deal Of
friction between the two insurgent gem
erals in Cuba, Gomez and Maceo. Maceo
leads the negroes and Gomez the whites.
The white men declare they are awaiting
themselves of negro assistance to attain
their ends but that 30 negro will be al
lowed to participate i'll the direction of
public affairs. Maceo, it appears, learned
of this some time ago and now there are
two distinct insurgent camps. 1t is
feared this will lead to civil strife it the
independence of Cuba is won and efforts
are now being made to patch up the
quarrel between the two leaders.

CANNOT COMPROMISE.
VenezueIa's Constitution SpecifI-
cally Forbids the Cession
of Any Territory.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 16.-New and
important information on the Venezuelan
question having direct bearing upon the
possibilities of a settlement of the bound
airy dispute by the two interested gov
ernments without the assistance OF any
other powers and seemingly discontinue
ing the proba biity of such an ending to
the controversy, has been pointed out
by Mr.. Heatwole of Minnesota, mem
Der of the House committee on foreign
affairs. The British government ac-
cording to the most recent and apparent
" inspired utterances of its Semi-Ofhclal
organs, has turned to the policy OF
bringing about a resumption of dlplo-
matte relations with the South American
republic and then proceeding to direct
negotiations with the republic to deter
mine the boundary as the most feasible
path by which it can emerge from its
present position without practical retrac-
ton or Lord Salisbury's refusal to arbl-
trate
In the light of presidents established
by her most distinguished authorities, 1T
is difficult to see how the government OF
Venezuela can consent to enter upon any
agreement to compromise her territorial
cllims with Great Britain, or as it has
leen suggested by recent London dis
patches to part with any portion of her
claims for a financial consideration. for
no less an authority than Guzman Blan-
co is on record as declaring such course
to be distinctly unconstitutional 1t APP
pears that the constitution of the South
American republic explicitly provides
that none of its officials shall in any
manner whatever make cesSion of the
smallest part of the territory.

RHODES BIG PLOT.
President Kruger Has Evidence
Against the South African
Company.

New York, Jan. IA London cable
gram copyrighted by the Press Publish
ing company, New York World, says:
The telegram from High Commissioner
Sir Hercules Robinson yesterday is the
first official confirmation of the rumors
rife in London for the last week that
President Kruger has secured evidence
on the field of the Krugersdorp battle
and elsewhere, fully proving the conlpli-
city of Cecil Rhodes and other officials
of the Chartered company in well and
long organized conspiracy to seize the
Transvaal republic. Sir Hercules cables
from Cape Town:
1T is alleged that the government has
documentary evidence of a Widespread
conspiracy to seize upon the govern
ment and make use of the wealth of the
country to rehabilitate the finances of the
British South Africa company.
If this is so, and if Colonial Secretary
Chamberlain makes good his fine pro-
festations, the trial of Cecil Rhodes and
his associates must prove the most mo-
mentouS to England since Warren Hast
ings was arraigned in Westminster.
The mystery of it is, however, if the
trial is fair and the conspiracy is proved
against Rhodes and Jameson, how Sir
Hercules can excuse his own astonishing
ignorance of how the preparations on
the Transvaal border were carried on
for months under the certain knowledge
of his SubordinateS in Bechuanaland

An English Baronet's Queer Method OF
Expressing His DisapprOval.
Students of the human character may
be interested in noting how a Yorkshire
baronet, sometime since called to his
rest used to punish his servants. Dur
ing the greater part of his life he was
a member of Parliament, and throughout
bis whole career he was remarkable for
mental vigor, fertility of resource and
shrewdneSs of observation.
Arranging number of chairs together
in his dining room. he would associate
the name of each one of his servants
with particular chair, and then, arming
himself with a stick. would proceed to
convict and chastise the offender.
The first two or three of these chairs
he would probably pass by, saying that
these particular servants were all right,
until coming to the chair associated with
the man in disgrace, he would proceed to
break his stock over it, eXclaiming loud
ly that the unfortunate individual was
a rogue and a vagabond, and any other
abusive epithet that might occur to him.
Meanwhile the servants, listening be-
hind the door. were able to announce the
approaching dismissal of the servant con-
victed and chastised in this peculiar man
ner. Such statement appearing In
novel might be supposed to have had it's
origin in the Imagination of the writer,
but it is here set down as plain matter

UNDER AMUSEMENT.
Justices of the Supreme Court Want
Time to Consider Northern
Pacific Affairs.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 15.-The
hearing in regard to the receiyership of
the Northern Pacific railway. which be-
gan yesterday before Justices Field,
Harlan, Brewer and Brown, sitting in
chambers was continued today. Elk
Senator Spooner concluded his argu-
ment and was followed by Mr.. Petit,
who is the direct representative of the
railroad company Mr.. Spooner's argu-
ment today consisted principally in the
citation of authorities favorable to the
recognition of the jurisdiction of the Mil
Waukee court. He said i'll conclusion
that he believed it would be in order for
the Supreme court to make rule in
equity which would prevent such a COM
plicatlon i'll the future as had arisen in
this case.
Mr. Petit opposed the position of
Messrs. Turner and Spooner. He de-
MED the assertion that the receivers
were appointed in the midst of panic,
declaring that a months time was con-
sumed in declaring whether to apply to
the courts sitting in Milwaukee or in
those of Chicago and ST. Paul. He said
the recognition of the Milwaukee re-
ownership in the beginning was due to
the fact that the parties who had applied
Tor their appointment We're in possess
sion of the road and Of course turned all
the property over to them.
Mr.. Pettit's argument was for the rec
ognition Of the jurisdiction of the cir
cult court for the Washington district.
He said that his choice was controlled
III the matter by the fact that the rail-
road company had more property in that
jurisdiction than in any other
Mr.. Choate, who appeared for the
Adams committee, representing the bond
holders, defended the jurisdiction of the
Milwaukee court.
The justice asked the several attorneys
to prepare such orders as they might
wish to have promulgated, to be sub
mitted to them at future meeting which
the justices will hold for consultation.
