HON. TOM c. RYE.

We clip the following Washing
ton special to the Daily American
concerning Hon. Tom @. Rye in
connection with the race for Con-
gress in this district. 1t will be
appreciated by his many friends in
his home county as well as all over
the Eighth Congressional District:
The large number Of friends Tom @.
Rye, of Camden, Tenn, has made for
himself in Washington notice with pleas
ure, bat entirely without surprise, that
considerable mention is being made Of
him as an available candidate to repre-
sent the Eighth district Of Tennessee in
Congress. 1t is not surprising that this
young man is favorite in his own dis
trict as such statement would be the
first presumption, Judging from eplaCe
the eloquence and charm of his nature
won for him with all who have been priv
ileged to meet him in Washington, even
though the fact was sustained by no ev-
idence. His associates here would be
unwilling to part with him for any other
reason save that of serving the Demo
cratic party, believing that a true adher-
ent has no right to refuse to serve if the
choice falls on him, and he must surely
regard as a compliment the fact that his
own district, which knows him out and
out, reposes in him the interests of its
people. Congressional material has rare
| ly been forwarded to Washington on APP
proval, but that fact is emphatically true
in this case II Tom Rye should return
to Tennessee totenter the race, he will be
returned from the Washington public
with hearty endorsement and all appro-
pirate medals and awards. Should Ten
nessee send him back to Washington, il

THEY HOOTED CAMPOs.

Madrid, Feb. 7.-Tbis city was the
scene to-day of demonstration that
would have required very little to have
turned it into serious riot. As told
in these dispatches Of Tuesday last, a
number Of men hooted General Campos
as he was driving to his residence from
the railway station on his return from
Cuba. A pumber of the hooters were
arrested and one broke away from the
gendarmes who had him 10 custody aud
sought to make his escape.
The gendarmes fred twice at him
and killed him. The shooting caused
great excitement and the government
was bitterly condemned by the Repub-
licaps. This afternoon the funeral Of
the victim took place and was attended
By au enormous crowd. Fully $1,000
men. most of whom we're Republicans,
shouting for the entire distance, "down
witt the police. down with Campos," :"
and "lopg live the republic" The
government anticipated trouble and
there was strong display of gendaTmes,
who, however, appeared to be afraid to
Interfere with the procession in any way,
lest they provoke riot. Consequently,
the crowd shouted itself boarse until the
cemetery was reached, when the as
semb blage stood with barred heads until
the fnneral rites had been completed.
The greater portion Of the crowd then
disappeared. but 1000 of its number
again formed in line and marched un-
moles;ed back to the royal palace, in
front of which they gathered uumolest-
edly shouting. death to the queen"
and Long live the republic Even
The guards. who are always on duty
around the palace. seemed to be intiml-
dated by the sulleu temper of the mob
and made not the slightest attempt to
drive them away.
After partly venting their anger
against the youthful king and his moth
er, the crowd marched to the residence
of Gen. Campos, where SIMILAR de-
mon>tation of disapproval was made.
The apathy of the police. which was
ucquestionably due to ar, was sigoih-
cant. So far as known the civil au
thori,ies made no request of the crowd,
the members of which did ss they
pleased antil night fall. However, they
committed 90 overt act, contcntiug
themselves with shouting and hootiog,
but were very evidently in buuor to
fight had they been uterfered with.
After darkness set 10 it was proposed to
gather under the windows Of the hotel
at which were stopping number Of
Republican delegates. who had come 10
Madrid to attend the funeral Of the
victim of the gcndarmes and serenade
them. The police had in the meantime
mustered courage and told the leaders
the serenade would not be allowed.
The crowd after insisting upon carrying
out the plan. finally listened to their
leaders aud dispersed.

1t is the belief Of the National So
c;ety cf the Sons of the American
Revolution that the historic ba:tleshi ?
Constitution should be rebuilt at once
and forever preserved as an illustration
Of the original type o! warship Which
bias iynmortalized the United States
navy. The origira'ors Of the project
are prominent mem bers Of the Empire
State society of the Sons of the Amer

pretty much all the States. They pro-
pose removing the Constitution from
Portsmouth On. H. navy yard TO
Washington, D, c. After the ola
frigate is restored to her original con-
ditiou she will if the project is favor
ed by congress, be utilized as nation
al museum of pavy relics.
Secretary John Winfield Scott of the
Empire State society said to New
York Times interviewer that a bill
would be presented to congress in a
short time asking for the transfer of
the Constitution to Washington. A
committee from the national society
will present the bill aud the States
will memorialIze congress throug gh their
several congressional delegations, urg-
ing the enactment of the law. General
Horace Porter, who is president Of the
national society, and Chauncey Depew,
president of the Empire State acciety.
have the project much at heart and feel
confident congress will act favorably on
the petition. If so, auother chapter
will be added to the eventful history Of
this famous old battleship.

at the Boston uavey yard, she was rated

the war of 1872 is known to every
student of American history. Captain
Hull, who first commanded her, forced
many British prizes to strike their col

was the Constitutions most famous
achievement while Captain Hull was 10

prizes were captured later in the war,
when Captain Baiubrldge was 10 com

afterward captured the Cyane aud the

which had been sadly neglected, Dr.
Holmes came to the rescue with his
soul-ssirring poem of Aye, tear her

defeated the plan to break her up. For
long time she has been doing duty
