Ii has been suggested by mum.
Der of prominent citizens in town
that a public meeting be called at
the court house some evening next
week, and the two candidates for
mayor, Messrs. w. S. Bullock and

that cats have become q fad, the infor-

more. Not only do they become strong

ration from people they are attached
to proves fatal. A cat is not friend

A cat makes few friends. and those are

MARTIAL LAW DECLARED.

Insurgents Steadily Calming.


Insurgents Steadily Calming.
HAVANA, Jan. 4.-Owing to the near
approach Of the insurgent forces to
Havana and the disturbances in the
province of Pinar del Rio, martial law
was declared yesterday in the province
OF Havana and in the province of Pr
mar del Rio. Maxine Gomez has de-
clared his purpose to penetrate into
the province of Pinar del Rio. Although
his forces have not reached the borders
of that province, the action of the au-
thorities is understood to indicate that
they have no hopes of preventing him
from carrying out mis- threat.
1t is not only the organized armed
force of the advancing insurgents that
the authorities find themselves COM
PEELED to prepare against. In fact,
there is little apprehension that this
force could effect much success in an
assault upon this city, great as is the
damage that they have wrought In the
country. But the irresistible pro.
gress Of the insurgent army whittier
it listeth from one end of the island
to the other has served immensely to
increase the boldness of their sympa-
thizers, who have hitherto remained
passive non-combatsnts II these were
to see tho occasion for successful
stroke there is no doubt that great ac-
cession to the insurgent forces wou Id
be gained throughout the provinces Of
Havana and Pinar del Rio, and there
are grave fears that an uprising would
occur in the city of Havana itself.

OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 4.-Several months

turn the Office over 10 his bondsmen
when q defalcation of $4,000 was
found. A committee appointed by the
city council at once commenced an in
vcstigation and has delayed its report
from month to month. A report was
to have been made last night. At the
last moment the committee notified
the council that the report must be
again postponed. In explanation the
committee said a new and unexpected
discrepancy had been found. The fig.
ures indicate an additional shortage in
the city treasury, which unless coun-
terbalanced items are found will reach

The Children's Home at Coiumbas, o., De-

COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 4.-The franklin
County Children's home, two miles
northeast Of the city, burned yesterday
morning. The city fire department
was called at $40, but owing to the
long run the fire had enveloped the
whole building before the engines
reached the scene. The children, of
whom there were lat in the home,
were Just rising. The attendants hur-
riedly marched them out Of the build
ing, and it is believed by Mrs. A. d.
White, the superintendent, that all
were saved The Panhandle Railway
Co., along whose line the home is 10.
Gated, sent out special train to
bring the children to the city,
but as the weather was terribly
cold. many of them had been
taken to the houses in the neighbor-
hood, whore they are temporarily
quartered. Being thus scattered it is
difficult TO tell whether any children
are missing or not. The attendants
say all the children under their care
were taken out and that there was no
panic. The building was large three
story brick. built Is years ago at cost
Of S125. 900 The superintendent, A. d.
White, died two years ago and his
widow was placed in charge Of the
home by the commissioners. The
center portion of the building
was completely destroyed. 1t is
hardly possible that any of the
walls can be built up again. In fact,
the walls of the north wing fell in I'M
der pressure Of strong wind. The
commissioners are severely ceDsured
for the inadequate insurance on the
building. The insurance on the build.

The water was only four feet deep at
that point, but some of the younger
ones were unable to get out A dozen
young men jumped in to rescue them
and. with the assistance of benches,
ladders, planks, etc, thrown in from
the bank, all were safely landed. The
accident created great alarm and
abruptly ended the sport.

Produce markets have been the theater of
surprising changes, which have Influenced all
business The acreage In cotton was wisely
restricted In order to give the producers bet
ter chance for fair returns, and the crop was
further reduced to some extent bv injury. but
growers were injured still more by frantic
speculation. which checked exports, and by
false information and advice. Wheat produ-
Gers suffered In like manner from wild specu-
lation, which prevented tho exporting of
many million bushels. and false reports which
encouraged farmers to keep back their grain
until the cream had been taken on the market
BY spectators. The Inevitable consequence
has been the very lowering In prices. the yield
being clearly In excess Of ell demands while
Atlantic exports for the last five weeks flour
included, have been e,4ii.e50 bushels against
so73.67S bushels last year. The corn crop has
