not an American among the crowd. Every

CURRENT COMMENT.
The Boom for Teller.
From the Birmingham News Dem3.

The Teller champions in the democratic
household are evidently drunk with the
free silver craze. They place the advo-
cacy of free coinage above all other con-
siderations, even to the preservation OF
the party's life They are crazed with
silver enthusiasm. If they succeed in their
efforts and nominate Teller for President,
the ticket thus named will not be demo,
cratic, and the ties which bind the party
together will be broken. Overwhelming
defeat and party disintegration will sure
ly follow.

Native modesty prevents Sir Charles from
saying that when England gets through

probably what he thinks.

vRna papers published an account of an
alleged battle near Chucho de Arce, in
which, after an hours fighting, the
Spaniards drove the rebels OH. killing
nineteen and taking many prisoners.
The papers suggested that the govern
ment should reward Colonel Aguilera.
the Spanish commander, for his BRAY

The facts in regard to "the battle" are
as follows:
On September Is ten rebels went to
attack guerilla baud that had started
from Vegas to the field. When the reb-
els, in ambush, were reasiy to attack
they noticed strong body of soldiers

officers and wounding three soldiers

Then they transpicrced the abdomen
of the mother with a bayonet, after
which they disembowcIed her with a
machete. The little children were first
pierced with the end Of a hayonet and
then finished with the machete. OF the

they had gone after some fuel TO prepare
their breakfast and would soon return.
The colonel ordered the three children,
10 TO Ii years old, to be locked up in the
house, and after this was done he order
ed the guerillas to set fire to the house.
The guerillas, horrified, disobeyed at first,
but under the threats of Aguilera they
acted. and the house was burned down
with the children in it.
On their return to Nueva PaZ the
guerillas told the people what had been
done. This information is from a Span

the negroes also. The body of the old
man was thrown into well near by.
where he was found two days aftervard,

the well. The bodies Of the two negroes
