the coquette. This means: Il place at

NEW LIGHT ON ABYssINIA.
Strange People-Queer Ways of Maxi
ing Love, and Queerer Formulas
for Fighting.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
The popular notion that the Abyssin-
ians, who are giving so much trouble just
now to the Italians, are rude barbarians.
is erroneous. According to the notes of
French traveller, extensively published
in the Paris papers, the general aspect
of Abyssinia is mountainous and we'll
wooded. The hills are crowned by extern
sive plateaus pierced by long and wide
valleys that are watered by rivers teem-
ing with hsh. In general, the towns are
but little poulated. A few, like Gondar
Tor instance, have churches and converts
that compare favorably with the most
magnificent edifices of Europe.
Inc Abyssinians are thin and of ordin-
airy stature, but they possess great
strength and extreme agility. They are
excellent horsemen; they love agricui-
ture, and pursue it with passion. More
over, they are very Industrious brave and
hospitable Copts and schismatics, they
refuse to recognize the supremacy of the
pope, but as they cherish their mothers
with intense love and respect, they carry
the worship of the Virgin to the point
of alteration.
Among. us. they say, the mother is
an-powerful. She commands 1t is always
TO her that we go for advice. God, who
IS far more perfect than we are mus.
still be obedient to her who brought Him
TO light"
Consequently, it is to the Virgin that
they address their prayers; it is she whom
they adore in the fun sense of the term
When travelling through their country
the best passport is a little cordonnet Of
blue ribbon worn conspicuously around
the neck. 1t is a sort of scapular which
marks you as protege of the Virgin.
1t attracts all sympathies and opens ali
doors Tor you, and guards you from ali
dangers.
The women are pretty: they have bronze
compleXions, like the Neapolitans; their
eyes are large and full of expression; the
nose is small and straight. and The fia1re
sight but perfectly proportional TIE
halr is very fine and black as ebony. THE
entire physiognomy is charming Among
them there is no Discrimination. One reads
IN their eyes, just as in an open book.
IoVe, indifference, hatred or contempt
vengeance or pardon.
As matter OF fact, in this country
with such strange usages and manners
the language of the eyes plays an impor-
tant part. Very often challenges and de
carnations are expressed by a single es-
ture' without pronouncing a word. In

change of and Directing to the
counties of Uinta. Sweetwater and Car
bon on account of existing prejudice.
The argument will probably come up
before Judge Hayford about March
9Th, when the time and place of trial
will be determined. 1t is supposed that
Cheyenne or Laramie will be selected,
but of course nothing definite will be
known until Judge Hayford renders
his decision.
Since writing the above we under

as to Judge Hayford's Jurisdiction in

steer At EVnnstOn-The
Croker Case.

Rock Springs Independent: Private
Robert Mcnamara, of Company F,
Eighth infantry. has received the fol-
lowing sentence:
ITO be d%ishonorably discharged
from the service of the United States,
FORGETTING all pay and allowance due
him. and to be confined at hard labor
at such post as the reviewing authority
may direct, for four years"
The sentence was approved and will
be duly executed at Fort Russell.
1t will be remembered that McNa-
mara, III company with several civili-
ans, made an u~nprovoked and mali
cious assault upon five Cinnamon
Joe Wong, Jung Ho boy. Leo War,
Leo Lip and Wong Tong War-as they
were going to work at No. /, in the
early morning of January IS, last.
Mcnamara was court martialed in
this city under three different charges,
absence without leave, false state
ments to his lieutenant and the assault
upon the Cinnamon. He plead guilty
TO the first two charges and not gull
ty to the five specifications of the third
charge.
Private John l.. Wilkes, Company
b, Eighth infantry, was a party to the
assault and vas tried by court martial
at the same time and found guilty of
larceny, leaving the post, quitting
guard and disobedience of post orders
and neglect of duty and was sentenced
TO be d~ishonorably discharged from
the service of the United States, for
feiting all pay and allowance due him
and to be confined at hard Abor at
such post as the reviewing authority
maySyirect for two years"
This, sentence was approved and will
also be executed at Fort d. A. Russell.
While the sentences are pretty Sc
we're they seem just, in view of the
fact that these soldiers are stationed
here as means of protection to the
Cinnamon, and if the perpetrators of
such acts of violence were net serious
ly punished, it would only serve as
encouragement to others to commit
like assaults upon a people whom the
United States is in treaty bound to
protect.

Spanish government has not in any

So far as could be learned tonight, no

state department channels, il Minister

heard of the disturbances in Spain to-
day through the press and he was be-
sieged by the reporters for an express
sion of his opinion. He automatically
declined, however. to say aaything for
publication pending news from his
government. which he expects to re
ceiye soon.
AN APOLOGY NECESSARY.
The violation of the consulate of the
United States at Barcelona makes a
disavowal necessary by Spain, and the
United States probably will enquire of
the Spanish government what amends
will be made. The case finds an ma
Joyous one in an event which occurred
in this country probably sixty years
ago, when a mob of persons in New
Orleans assaulted the Spanish consul
late at a time when the Florida ques-
ton was uppermost in the public mind.
1t was a case Of mob violence, and the
government of the United States gave
compensation to Spain for the damage
done. More recent cases where the
United States has paid or is about to
ers for assaults committed or them are
the cases of the Chinese in Wyoming
and the Italians in Colorado. In these
cases, however, the outrages We're the
work of mobs and individuals, not Of
ficials.
The outrage against the consulate
at Barcelona is looked upon here by
those who have given an opinion on
the matter as the work of a mob, for
which the Spanish government is not
directly responsible. On the contrary,
as shown in the dispatches. it has
taken precautions to protect the con-
sulate and exercised due diligence in
the matter. This being the case. Spain
may be expected to make an express
sion of genuine regret or proper expla-
nation for the unfortunate occurrence,
and possibly reparation for the damage
done. This at least is the opinion of
Chairman Hit Of she house committee
on foreign affairs, @shfl1NAai his az

%quirements of International law and
custom are in such cases.

IN THE HOUSE.

Washington, Feb. 29.-The first
presidential veto of this session of con-
gress was overridden by the house to-
day by a vote of 1913 to 3S, 1872 more
than the requisite constitutional two
thirds. All the republicans and 81
democrats voted for the bill, while the
votes to sustain the president were all
cast by democrats. The bill author
lies the governor and local authorities
OF Arizona to lease the schools lands
of the territory for educational pur-
poses. The presidents objection to the
bill was that 1t did not give the secre-
tary of the interior power to disap-
prove the leases. and did not throw
proper safeguards about the timber on
the lands. The statement was made
on the floor that the bill was identical
with a similar bill passed by the last
congress to Oklahoma territory, at the
request Of the secretary of the interior.
and that the bill had received the writ
ten approval Of both Secretary Smith
and the commissioner of the general
land Office. The statement was also
made that the lands proposed to be
leased were now in possession Of cat
tlemen and others, rent free.
The remainder of the day was con-
sumed in the consideration Of the leg
tslative appropriation bill. No amend
ments Of public interest were adopted.
