Baltimore. Nov. 2S-Considerable

Washington, Nov. 23.-The Spanish
legation is not likely to make any COM
plant to this government with refer
ence to the action of the students at
Newcastle, Del, a few days ago, who
destroyed a Spanish flag. There is no
Spanish consul at Newcastle, and the
incident to that extent was ROBBED of
any official character. Moreover. both
the Spanish and American govern
ments have reached so perfect an I'M
derstanding with reference to circum-
stances of this character that little if
any Importance is attached to them.
1t Was said a. the state department.
today that if a Spanish flag displayed
from a Spanish consulate or warship
had been offered an indignity, the at
tention of the state department would
be at once directed TO the matter and
a suitable apology demanded. 1t is
regarded as not unlikely that the
lingo" press of Spain may attempt to
magnify the incident, but there is ex-
cellent authority for the statement
that it will receive no official attention
either at the hands of the American
or Spanish authorities

New York, Nov. PA Boston special

that would interfere with her possess
sions in Philippine Islands or in Cuba.
1t makes no difference what nation 1t
might be- said Senator Manuel Garcia
Y. Cruz, Spanish consul to Boston, in
an interview yesterday. True, we
have comparatively few soldiers; only
between $4,000 and 10000 in Spain, be-
cause the most of our troops, to the
number Of 1000, are now engaged IN
subduing Cuba. But it would be d
naval war, and it would be fought
upon the seas. 1t must not be thought
that because our navy has not shut
the filibusters off from Cuba we have
no naval power The filibuSterS can
run into the three-mile limit of Ameri-
can waters and take refuge when the
biggest warships can do nothing. But
in case of war it would be different,

Il am sorry to say that the Spanish
American people have been growing
apart for many, many years, as one
province after another has been taken

how firmly she is determined TO hold
Cuba. Your people do not know the
real causes of the Cuban revolution

What we are waiting now very
anxiously for is to see what President

should not? All. then it would be very

Eve pinned the fig leaves together?
And does history anywhere record that
women ever yet ceased to wear a gar
ment because of mems criticism?
Again, no mortal woman wants to
show her head in public without know
ing precisely how it looks, and every
woman living will tell you that she
simply cannot take off her hat without
risk of 'mussing" her hair and max
ing fright of herself" At the opera
there is no provision made for repairing
this damage or even for observing it's
extent in a mirror.
Further, when a woman has lavished
cajoleries or tears upon an obdurate
husband and thus secured one of those
marvellous structures of lace, feathers
ribbons and flowers known as a hat"
is she going to neglect any opportunity
TO show it? For what other purpose
does she go to the opera Is she
tamely to submit to a decree requiring
her to take it off and hold it unseen in
her lap during what might otherwise
be three hours of glory for it and for
her? Is she to hide a $50 hat behind a
So opera seat?
Far be it from us to pretend to any
but the most superficial knowledge of
the workings of the feminine mind.

Newcastle. Del, Nov. 23.-The people
of Newcastle are much surprised over
the dispatch from Madrid in reference
TO the alleged burning of a Spanish
flag here last Wednesday night. The
incident has been exaggerated. The
members of company H, Delaware ma
tional guard, had held reception and
nearly all had gone when some one re-
called the remarks in a speech by Rev.
V. S. Collins. in which he said thai
beiligerent rights of the CuIoanS ought
to be recognized. There were then
about a dozen men present, and one
enthusiast is said to have jumped on a
table and torn down a Spanish flag
':seT ir the decorations and destroyed
it by burning it. Some even say it
was noe a Spanish flag. The officers
OF the regiment will investigate the
matter which attracted no attention
until the dispatch from Madrid was
received

New York, Nov. 23.-William D. By

treasurer of the national committee of
the sound money Democrats, arrived in
town yesterday for the purpose of dis
cussing plans for future organizations
with the National Democratic leaders
in this state.

ing but permanent organization was

the genuine principles of the Demo-
cratic party. If the currency question
should be an issue four years from

should be advocated, a National Dem
ocratic ticket would surely be nomi-
mated. The principal question now is
How best to continue our work how
extensive it shall be, and what shall
be its general character? In the most
of the western states, as in New York,
steps have already been taken to place
the organization on a permanent foot

There will be a meeting of the ma
tionai executive committee either in
Indianapolis or Chicago before the LIST
of January. Our plans for the immedi-
ate future will then be agreed upon
and probably an address to the people

His coming was not publicly an

the government full details in relation

THE CHARM OF LIFE.
A Bit For Readers Who Have a Phil
nsonhicaI Bent.

What is il? Surely not the everyday
routine of getting up, getting dressed,
doing ones duty and going back to
bed. The man or woman who finds life
interesting, hopeful, charming, is the
one who has a tender bit of sentiment
tucked away from the gaze of the
''madding crowd" No matter what it
chances to be, il is the open sesame to
relief and rest, the antidote for melan-
choly, the panacea for a thousand ills.
Of course before the thirtieS steal ones
illusions it IS apt to be a certain he,
or perhaps an uncertain she, but after
wards it might be one of many things.
Balzac gravely tells his readers that if
they want a sure preventive of ennui
they shall become collectors and there
is a world of delight anG sentiment in
the gathering together of rare bits of
human inventiveness, each one of
which may have d story. But these
things and their ilk are only a dernier
resort
The best thing in the world (and out
of it, perchance) is loving. and as long
as men and women car love someone
life cannot wholly lose its glamor.
a woman always dreams, said
Dumas. when she is young she
dreams of the future and when she is
old she dreams of the past" and per-
llapS that is why most women keep TO
the last an indefnably tender view of
life in spite OF a thousand ills. There
is a charm in dreaming which realities
cannot give and when life is all prose
il is scarcely worth the trouble of
breathing a few years longer. Most of
us have a mental sanctum into which
we go with reverential awe and as
long as it is ours the cares that infest
the day" may do their worst; they can
not quite conquer US
We may be too busy to think, ex-
cept on certain lines; we may be too
hurried to rest. except when we sleep,
but if we would keep life sane and
sweet and wiIsone and true we must
never be too tired to dream. A bit of
poetry, strain of music, a fair, young
face-or firm, true old one; a little
child or only q soft flower; these are
our charms with which to break the
spell Of dullness and dreariness. and
wise are we when we welcome them.

BLOODY WAS THE WORK
Husband and Wife Murdered in
Nesquohoning, Penn
MINING TOWN THE SCENE OF WILD
EXCITEMENT.
Perpetrators of the Crime Were
Three Hungarinns, and They
Were Arrested While Attempting
TO Escape-A Lynching is Prob
able, If They Are Caught.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, No. 29.-The mining
town of Nesquohoning, in Carbon
county, was the scene of the widest
excitement yesterday, when it became
known that a terrible murder had been
committed, the victims being Mrs. Cas-
par La Boye and ner husband. The
former was instantly killed, and the
latter fatally injured. the perpetrators
of the crime are three Hungarians, who
were arrested by number of men
While attempting to make their escape,
and had it not been for the interference
of the police, all three would have been
lynched. The prisoners were taken to
Mauch Chunk and are now in Jail
awaiting a hearing.
The La Boyes have always been
looked upon as upright, Woodworking
people,, and during the past ten years
have accumulated quite a snug sum of
money. To secure their hard-earned
earnings, which were supposed to be
hidden in their home. the murderers en-
tered the house at an early hour in the
morning. On hearing their footsteps,
Mrs. La Boye became aroused and
awakened her husband. A moment
later. and at the sight of one of the in
truders, La Boye jumped from his bed
and a scuff1e ensued, but before he
could do anything the three grabbed
him and in an instant he lay PROSTATE
on tht floor. Mrs. La Boye started for
the street to gi-,e an alarm, but before
she had reached the foot of the stairs
she was overtaken by one of the Hun
gaTians, who buried the blade of a
stiletto deep into her breast causing
almost instant death. The robbers then
became alarmed on hearing a noise on
the outside but before escaping from
the residence they slashed La Boye with
their knives in a most horrible man
ner, leaving him, as they supposed,
dead or the floor. When it became
known that a murder had been COM
mitted. a posse of citizens was formed,
and a thorough search was made for the
ASA ssins. and on reaching an old
shanty near the railroad they found
three burly Hungarians. They were
spattered with blood. and each had the
appearance of having engaged in a
struggle. They could give no account
of themselves. not being able to spea k
English, and it was all the officers could
do to keep the people from stringing
them I'D 20 a tree.

Plan by Which the Beasts Get the

New York Sun: Never before
in my memory have skunks been so
numerous in Sullivan county as this

land. 1--WE killed no fewer than q of
them myself the present season, and II
they come on as they have seen doing
for the past month, l will more than
double that number. You see, L keep

sizunks are very fond of bees. 1t don't
make any difference to them whether
they. are dead or alive; they seek them
just the same.
..Some people are slzeptical when l
tell them that a skunk don't mind
tackling a hive of live honey bees, but
its the truth, all the same, for 1 have
been a very close observer of these
animals. and when I saw my bees dis
appearing from some unknown cause,

found it to be the work of the skunk.
/ was much interested in the method
by which the skunks captured the in
sects without being stung. They first
picked up all the dead bees which lay
outside the hive. and then held their
tails to the entrance. This had the
effect of bringing out the honey max
ers. and in their efforts TO sting they
became entangled in the long hairs of
the skunk's tail, and were then
switched 10 death. Wherever the
honey bee is. there Skunks Will be
found in plenty.

Chicago, Nov 23.-Ex-banke An
thony Kozel, who failed last May for
$4,000, was locked up this afternoon
and tomorrow will go to Joliet prison,
having confessed to fraudulent prac-
tees in handling funds entrusted to
his care, and asked for an immediate
sentence. 1t was quietly agreed that
Kozel will tomorrow morning plead
guilty to larceny and be sent to the
penitentiary.
In the transactions covering Kozers
shortage, some $4,000 is involved. He
was indicted on three charges of lar
ceny, two of obtaining money under
false pretences and one of forgery.
Kozel is the first banker to go to the
penitentiary in this state for misuse
of funds entrusted to his care. The
famous Meadowcraft case is still hung
up in the United States supreme court
and the cases against Keene and Me
hieff are pending.
Kozers bank was one of the oldest
on the west side, and at the time of
his failure was regarded as model of
financial soundness. Investigation
showed that all the while Kozel had
been doing business in gross violation
of the banking laws. In many in
stances it was found he had dealt in
securities that had been encountered
for more than their original value.
While Kozers liabilities foot up STA
000, his assets brought only $1,000
hardly enough to pay the expenses of
the investigation. 1t was agreed to let
kozel plead guilty to larceny rather
than graver charge as he is over so
years and broken in health.
