HUGGING SET TO MUSIC"
He Declares That Those Who At.
tended Native Sons Ball Are
Doomed to Perdition.

WOODLAND, CAL, Feb. 24.-No minis
ter of the gospel ever created such sensa-
ton in Woodland as did the Rev. Mr..
Small from the pulpit of the Christian
Church last night. His subject was, From
the Ballroom to Hell,' and for the occa-
sion he occupied the position of censor
rather than spiritual adviser. The audi
forum OF the church, which is the largest
IN the city, was crowded until standing
room was at premium.
Rev. MIR. Small commenced his discourse
by comparison of the evils resulting from
the pleasures of Woodland s society dances
in spiritual and moral sense to the stencil
arising from the carcass of a hog. He
characterized dancing as "hugging set to
music, and said those who took part in it
were prompted solely by the baser in
stincts.
Every one of YOU" he continued, re-
ferring to the members of his congrega-
ton, "who attended the Native Sons ball
the other night-every one of you, say
IS down on the devils notebook, and as he
noted your names he gave an extra wag of
his tall"
This statement created an uncomfortable
feeling, and necks were craned in every
direction throughout the church.
Suppose" said Mr.. Small, that any
husband in this house on his return home
tonight should find his wife in the en-
brace of minister, her head resting upon
his breast, his arm encircIing her waist, as
is the position assumed at the dance, ask
what would he do? Shoot him. of course
l claim that it Is the husbands God-given
right, and his only, to clasp his wife in his
arms Society peoples opinion will not
admit thls but the opinion of such people
does not amount to the weight of feather
with me-
He concluded his remarks by inveighing
against the other ministers of the city for
not going into wholesale condemnation of
the dancing portion of Woodland 5 society,
and severely censured Rev. DR.. de Lew,
pastor of the Episcopal Church.
Public opinion censures the divine for
his arraignment of dancers, not so much
because he opposed the pastime as because
OF the language used. There was no cast
ing about for words, and many ladies nave
taken deep offense at the sermon

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 24.-Ac-
cording to news received from San Juan
del Norte, Nicaragua, an uprising is again
imminent in that country. Newspapers
have been suppressed, but reports
brought to San Juan by passengers
from the interior are to the effect that the
city of Leon has declared itself in favor of
Baca against President Zelava and de
mand's ZeIaya's resignation. Zelaya con-
siders he is strong enough to put down the
movement, trusting for support to the
Conservatives and the friendly Govern
ment of Honduras. He has discharged
all citizens of Leon from his SER
vice and demands that the city
surrender its arms and full sub
mission. He is endeavoring to obtain the
assistance of ex-President Zavala of
Granada. Great excitement prevailed
throughout Nicaragua, especially as
most of the National arms and am
munltlon are in Leon. The
latest advices are that Zelaya has declared
himself Dictator and that all his Ministry
have left him. At last reports the people
OF Leon were up in arms and fight was
imminent.

LOSS TO SCOTCH FARME RS
Complaint Made in the Commons
of the Exclusion of Cattle
From Canada.
Some of the Statesmen Willing to
Follow the American Rule of
Debate.

LONDON, Eng, Feb. 24.-In the House
of Commons TO-DAY Sir j. G.. S. Kinloch,
Radical member for East Perthshire, who
had previously given notice of his inten-
ton, asked the Right Hon. Waiter Long,
President of the Board of Agriculture,
whether, in view of the enormous loss
to the farmers of Scotland, resulting from
the exclusion of Canadian store cattle
from Great Britain, there was any pros
pect of reopening the British ports to
such cattle. He did not expect an answer
to this question: he said, in view of
MIR. Longs statement in the House
last week in introducing the bill amend
ing the diseases of animals act of 1894
making the restrictions placed upon the
importation of cattle permanent instead
of leaving them to the discretion of the
Board of Agriculture. and he wished to
ask Mr.. Long if he believed that pleuro-
pneumonia in cattle really existed in
Canada.
Mr.. Long said he could not answer that
question upon such short notice, but that
he would say that the Department of Ag-
riculture certainly thought that pleuro-
pneumonia could be introduced into Eng
land from cattle imported from Canada.
MIR. Sydney Gedge, Conservative mem
Der for Walsall, asked Sir Michael Hicks
Beach, Chancellor of the Exchequer, that,
in view of the high price of consols and
the intended heavy expenditures on the
navy, the Government Immediately bring
in bill enabling the large surplus in the
budget to be used for naval purposes
instead of applying it to the reduction of
he oI doh J1.rt
soils.
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach said he was un-
able as yet to state the intentions of the
Government in regard to the disposition of
the surplus.
The House then debated the proposal
of the Right Hon. A. J. Balfour, First
Lord OF the Treasury and Government
leader in the House, to alter
the procedure so that Fridays, hitherto
devoted to the discussion of private mem
bers' bills, should be henceforth devoted.to
the discussion of the Government esti-
mates. which discussion must be COM
pleted in twenty -four days. This pro-
posed alteration, which involves a time
limit, is based on the method suggested
some years ago by Mr.. Joseph Cham ber-
lain in an article in the Nineteenth Cen
tury, entitled "Shall we Americanize our
institutions?"
Sir William Vernon Harcourt, the oppo-
sition leader in the House, said he pre-
ferred the original scheme as suggested bv
Mr.. Chamberlain, but added that he
would agree to Fridays being devoted to
the estimates. He did not approve of ap-
plying closure after twenty Fridays, as Mr..
Balfour proposed. Mr.. Balfour announced
that the Government was willing to try
the experiment for year.

BLINKING and CURRENCY.
Three Important Bills Before the House
Committee.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb 24-It was
decided by the House Committee on Bank
ing and Currency this morning that at
their next meeting they will consider three
bills OF more than ordinary Importance
One permits banks to issue circulation to
the par value of their bonds.
Another restricts the borrowing of a
banks funds by the officers without the
full knowledge of the directors, while the
third looks to the establishment of an
international bank, which was one of the
recommendation Of the late Pan-Ameri-
can Congress.
The vote of the committee on the first
named bill is expected to be close, while it
is predicted that the bill having reference
to the borrowing OF money from
banks by its officers will be de-
feated. The committee looks with
considerable favor upon the bill establish
ing an international bank in this country,
but the question has been raised whether
such a measure would be constitutional.

NEW YORK, N. Y, Feb. 25.-A morn
ing paper says: "The iron steamer Ber-
muda flying the British flag, was boarded
and seized by revenue officers off Liberty
Island late last night.
The Bermuda has been under the watch
of Spanish spies for some time. They had
reason to believe she had been bought by
Cuban revolutionists and was fitting out
as fillibusterer. She has been anchored
off Liberty Island since last Saturday, and
yesterday there was evidence that she was
preparing for sea.
At II P. NJ, just after large party of
Cubans had gone aboard, the revenue cut
ter Hudson steamed alongside and board
ing party arrested all on the Bermuda. At
midnight the revenue steamer Channler
started down the bay to catch lighter
loaded with ammunition and look for an
other party of Cubans who had started to
board the Bermuda.
The Bermuda was an English built
steamer, formerly running in the Outer
bridge line. She was recently purchased
by firm suspected of being in league with
the revolutionary party.
Last Saturday she was taken to the coal
docks at Point Liberty and there coaled
up. Then she went to the Lib

Senator Perkins of California

Launched by State Senator
GleaveS.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb Ex-senator
the nomination of Vice President before
the Republican National Convention. At
least this is the announcement made to-
night by State Senator j. NJ. Gleaves, one
of the members of the California Legisla-
tuae now in Washington on business con-
nected with pending legislation.
Senator Gleaves has always been q
stanch friend of Perkins and was one of
his most loyal supporters in the last Sena-
torial fight. He has been in conference
with number of Republican leaders in
Washington and he says that he has found
that Senator Perkins nomination will be
a very popular one.
Senator Perkins discussed Senator
Gleaves' move in his behalf in very
modest fashion when seen tonight by a
CALL representative. He was not seeking
office, he said. In fact, he could serve the
State better in the Senate than in any
other office. Still, the nomination for
Vice President was an honor that few men
would decline if offered them. 1t had not
been offered to him, he said, and he did
not know that it would be.
upon Wn0m tnlS n0nOr SnoulQ be con-
ferred was question that could not be
settled at the present time. At least, it
was not customary to make Vice-Presi-
dents month ahead as they did Presi-
dents.

will tomorrow publish dispatch from
Constantinopie saying that no steps what
ever have been taken by the Porte to in
augurate the reforms that were promised
for Armenia and Macedonia.
Nobody conversant with the Yildiz
Palace methods expects that any reforms
will be instituted during the Sultan's life
time.
Lord Salisbury has communicated to
the Armenian Relief Committee, report
from Sir Philip Currie, the British EN- bas-
sador at Constantinope, in which he
states that the misery ana sickness among
the refugees at Zeitoun is considerable,
their distress is added TO by the bitter cold
weather that is prevailing. The Turkish
officials are unable to assist the sufferers,
and there is nobody in the country to whom
they can appeal for relief. Moreover,
these demands made upon the Constanti-
nople committee are already so heavy that
it is feared that the committee will be pre-
cluded from helping the Zeitounlis.

24.-lnquiry into the causes of the recent
explosion of dynamite at Viedendorp, a
suburb of this city. has elected the fact
that truckload of detonars brought from
Port Elizabeth was placed on side track
at the Bramfontey freight depot. A loco
motive in shifting cars came in collision
with the car containing the detonators, the
contents of the car exploded from the shock
and the explosion of the detonators caused
the explosion of the dynamite which was
contained in cars standing on track near
by.
President Kruger addressed the commit
tee that was formed to relieve the sufferers
by the explosion. In the course of his re-
remarks he highly praised the work done
by the committee and said:
"You have done to others as you would
wish to be done by. Those who have given
