CAROLINA BUGGY CO.
The CINCINNATI
BUGGY

NF TODAY has its friends just as it
" had 10 years ago, and they seem'to
think that none can take its place, and
we believe that they are right. We keep
Cincinnati buggies on hand and for sale.
We do it for the reason that it Is. our
business to sell buggies, and knowing
that everybody cannot afford to buy our
FAMOUS CAROLINA BUGGY, and
that the Cincinnati buggy is worth all
we ask for them. We also keep them to
compare and contrast with our own work.
When you put our work side by side
with other vehicles, it does not take any
arguments to convince purchasers Of the
superiority of the CAROLINA BUGGY
over all others. But we want you to re-
member that we sell the CINCINNATI
BUGGY at almost any price.

CUBANS ARE CONFIDENT
They Expect to Vanquish no Hatter
What r1ay Come.

New York, April 15.-A Tribune special
from Washington says: :ws Senior Quesa-
da, the secretary Of the Cuban delegation
in Washington, said yesterday in refer
ence to the recent elections held in Cuba
under the direction of the Spanish au
thorities:
The elections resulted in farce. A
very light ballot was cast and only the
ready selected by the Spanish govern
ment were chosen and it was altogether
a puppet show. The same conditions gov
erned the elections in Spain. The gov
ernment had everything cut and dried
before hand. In Cuba out of so deputies
to the Spanish cortes but natives of the
island were elected, and all their inter
ests are in Spain and they are the worst
enemies of Cuba's liberties on earth
tories of the worst kind. The other 26
are even worse. | do not wonder at
the indignation of the people in Spain
over the way the elections have been
conducted, both at home and in the col
onies.
[ see the Spanish cable victories in
Cuba continue, but we also continue to
receive gratifying information from au-
thoritative sources that our case is pro-
crossing steadily and favorably. Gen
Gomez is organizing new army of in.
vasion by means of the thousands of
rifles and cartridges which have been
lately landed in the island He is being
ably assisted in this by Gen Calixto Gar
cla, OF Hawkins fame, the boat that was
lost and which we now know was scut-
| tied by agents of the Spanish govern
ment, and also by Gen. Francisco Car
rlllo, who was tried and acquitted of the
charge OF filibustering at Wilmington
The van guard Of this new army is COM
ing west fully equipped for an aggressive
campaign during the summer, when the
unacclimated Spanish troops will be con-
fronted, not only by vigorous Cubans.

Madrid, April 15.--In consequence of
irregularities in handling the votes in
the recent election the presidents of the
electoral bureau in Madrid have been
/ fined 100 pesetas each. The liberal can
didates elected in Madrid will probably
Iresign. The judges have ordered the
marquis of Cabrineana to furnish bail in
the sum of 5000 pesetas for having ac-
cused the municipal council of Madrid of
corrupt practices. The marquis has re-
fused to furnish the bail required, declar-
ing that the charges he made are true,
and that he would prefer to go to prison
rather than furnish bonds.

Washington, April 15.-The house bill

brevet in the regular army for the same
rank, dating back to the time of their
appointment by brevet in the volunteer
srevice, was reported back from the
committee on military affairs, with an
amendment making the appointments
optional with the president, not COM
pulsory, and asking that it be put upon
its passage.

Gen. MuIhoIland's Stories.

Brimful of funny anecdotes that had no
chestnutty flavor was the speech OF Cen
eral ST. Clair Mulholland at the Second
Corps banquet, at the Shoreham Friday
night. The Irishmen largely preponderated
in these anecdotes. of which couple Of
specimens from the memory Of guest
will be found below.
McCeok's regiment was in front of the
enemy, and, expecting to make an attack
next morning, he mounted his horse to
ride down to the picket line and examined
the situation. With this purpose in view
he called on soldier to accompany him,
and the commanding officer made a detail
McCook was astonished when little
redheaded fellow rode up to him and
touched his cap, ready for this service, for
he was mere boy. weighing not more
than seventy-five pounds and looking
scarcely larger than the Sharps rife he
carried

successful military campaign. Such in
| substance was the statement made by
MIR. Seward to Gen. Shields as subse-
quently related by the latter.
Why, then, was the magnificent tender
and temptation not quickly accepted?
Because, at the same time, the purpose
and policies of the president, or the gov
ernment to bring about emancipation OF
the negro race was indicated or an
nounced. Perhaps the emancipation
proclamation was then under considera-
ton.
This was the obstacle, the barrier that
moved Gen. Shields Ito decline the ten
der of this important command. He was
for fighting it out on the other lines with
out regard to the negro. The interview
was, Of course, confidential in its char
acter and the tender OF the command
| made an affair of absolute secrecy. And
so nothing was known or heard Of it at
the. time. Such, in a general way was
the substance Of Gen Shields account Of
this interesting episode Of the civil war.

curacy OF my account at least as to the es-
| sential particulars.
| A few words as to the subsequent ca
| reer of Gen. Shields may not be amiss
| to complete this paper.
| Shortly after the campaign referred to-,
| in which Shields was wounded, he re-
| signed his command This 1T may be
surmised, proceeded partly because OF his
wounds and from the failure to obtain
the richly earned promotion, perhaps,
from dissatisfaction with the policy at

turned his sword into plougrshare.'
