Cross Bulls.

We see floating around in the col<
umns of the agricultural and general
press a bit of advice intended to save
ones life when a cross bull gets after
him. The substance of the suggestion
is that when the bull charges, just be-
fore he makes the final lurch, he shuts
his eyes, and if his intended victim has
the presence of mind to stand perfectly
still until the bull is within two.or three
feet of him, ell he has then to do is
to step aside and the bull will pass by.
We are told that any child with sufh-
cient presence of mind to do this can
meet a bull and let him charge at him
all day in this way with perfect safety.
We are entirely willing to let the gen
tleman who first penned this para
graph have all our share of this kind OF
amusement. The place we want to be
when mad bull is charging is on the
other side of the fence, and we would
like to have a reasonable amount of as
surance that the fence is a lawful one,
or even more. There is a great deal OF
nonsense written about the power OF
the human eye in cowing the brute
creation These fancy sketches can be
permitted to pass without special con-
tradiction, because there are not many
of us who are likely to ever have oc-
casion to rely on them with ferocious
wild animals, but cross bull is some
thing that any of us are liable to have
to meet any day, and our suggestion
would be not to rely upon the theory
that the bull charges with his eyes
shut, and that one can step out OF MS
way when a couple of feet from him.
simply retaining his presence OF nina.
Presenca of mind is nice thing IN
such a case, of course, but absence OF
body is infinitely better.-Western

NATURES CHILD TEACHER
Rain In the City Is Only q wetness
Broken Loose

Pain in the City Is Only q wetness
Broken Loose.
Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst, d. D.,
writes upon Memories of Our Child
hood Homes in Ladies' Home Journal,
and emphasizes the necessity of sur
rounding children with bright pictures
and CHEEKY furnishings, as the mental
photographs they make in early years
are the ones that never fade, but last
and remain vivid through life. Ma
ture, too, has a big part to play in
the teachings of the youth. 1t takes
great deal to make a good home,
writes the forceful leader and teacher
''It needs something even beside father
and mother, and an open fire, and the
cat on the hearth. The first element
in the home is the house itself, which
needs to be distinctly different from
any other house in sight. Then there
needs to be some land around house
before it can be real honey 1t gives
playroom for the eyes as we'll as for
the feet. A wide range of solemn woods
will do more for a child in a week than
yellow bricks and dirty paving stones
will do for him in year or ever do for
him. 1t is a great thing for child to
grow up within earshot of babbl1ng
brook. There is a kind OF mus1calness
of spirit that will become his in that
way that he will never be able to &C.
quire from piano teacher or f1ddl1ng
master. This wide range of prospect
will also companion him with the bright
and the more earnest moods of the great
mother earth on whose bosom he Is
being nourished. He will have oppor-
tunity to see the days brighten in the
east in the morning, and his soul Will
unconseiously absorb some of the glory
of the setting sun. Children in the city
hardly ever see the sun come up or go
down. 1t simply grows light about the
time they have to get up and grows
dark a dozen or so hours later. TO
child in the country there is likewise
opportunity for him to see it rain. There
is a great difference between rain and
falling water. Rain in the city is only
wetness broken loose, and is calculated
only in terms of STRENGTHENING and
aqueduct supply. A square mile OF rain
or a dozen square miles is different
matter, and is unconsciously construed
by the child as being a mood of Ma
lures mind rather than hydropath1c
uncorking. Still more impressive upon
the child's mind are the strange COM
munications made to him by the light
ming flashing above him across hun
bred miles of country sky, and the
wierd aurora and the swift and blaz-
ing track of falling stars that make
him feel how solemnly close to him
is the great wonderful world above the
Clouds"

Senator Morgan Scores SPANS
Policy ON the Island.
He Speaks Vigorously for the
Recognition of Patriots.
WEYLER DENOUNCED.
The War is a Shocking HOlO-
caust Every Day,
Yet Uncle Sam Watches Idly the
Slaughter.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The public
interest in the Cuban question was
shown yesterday by the crowds which
came to the Senate galleries in antici-
PATTON of continuance of the Cuban
debate. The diplomatic gallery
showed the largest representation
since the session opened, the ministers
of Brazil, Chilli, Hawaii and several
other countries being present. Mr..
Morgan of Alabama occupied almo
the entire day in a narrative and his
torical speech. Mr.. Morgan spoke
three hours, and had not concluded
when the Senate adjourned.
The Senator reviewed the policy of
the United States regarding Cuba
since the time of President Adams.
The latter prophesied that within
fifty years Cuba would be a State of
the United States, and thereafter
Webster, Clay, Jefferson and other
statesmen uniformly urged the acqui-
sition of Cuba by the United States
Mr.. Morgan said the atrocities of
the Spanish fol ces in controlling the
Cubans were almost without parallel
in history. In the last war not only
had 5000 been killed in battle, but
"A 600 prisoners had been put to death.
1t was a most shocking holocaust.
The senator SAID he had paused in
wonderment to think that the United
States had stood silently by at this
awful slaughter of A, 900 prisoners,
instead of moving, sword in hand, and
driving the Spaniards from the island.
Mr.. Frye, Republican, of Name
asked if this wonderful, shocking
statement was historical.
Mr.. Morgan replied that it was his
tory, deliberately written by Span
is,,-
cyclOpedia, under the title, ''Cu ba.''
The present war, said Mr. Morgan,
was but renewal of the former one
General Gomez had returned to his
command, and Cisnero, the insurgent
President, returned to his task. The
United States could go no further in
its forbearance without a stain upon
its honor. 1t was the imperative duty
of to-day to declare a state of war ex-
listing.
Mr.. Morgan said the bloody code of
General Weyler was without a par
allel in modern warfare. It was
aimed against women and children
and innocent tradesmen. If this in
human code was directed against one
American citizen, said the Senator,
then Spain should understand that TO-
900, 900 people would visit soon upon
her suc1 redress as would make the
Cuban uprising a mere trifle in COM
parison. We had the right to insist
that the rules of civilized warfare be
observed.
The Senator said the adoption of
this resolution would not only apply
to this rebellion, but also the next
and the next-for they would continue
to come-and would be notice to Spain
that belligerency would be accorded
to those struggling for their freedom.
Mr.. Morgan spoke until 5:1o p. M, and
will continue his remarks to-day.

LINTON GAINS HIS POINT.
House Rejects the Appropriation fol
Sectarian Indian Schools.

House Rejects the Appropriation for
Sectarian Indian Schools.
WASHINGTON, Feb 25-The House
in commit ee of the whole. after
very interes ting debate, by a vote of
90 to "a, decided that none of the ap-
preparations on the Indian appropria-
ton bill for Indian schools should 90
toy sectaria schools. The only sec
tartan chools to which money now
goes are Roman Catholic in denomi-
nation, and the fight to-day was led
by Mr.. Linton, a Michigan Repub-
lican, who is the most pronounced
and openly avowed A. P. A. member
on the floor
In last years bill the appropriation
was cut down 20 per cent, with the
understanding it should be reduced
20 per cent each year until it ceased
at the end of five years. The COM
mittee on Indian affairs this year
recommended that this appropriation
again be reduced 20 per cent, but Mr.
Linton moved an amendment that no
portion of this appropriation should
go to sectarian schools. In his
speech in support of it he attributed
the defeat of many members two
years ago to their refusal to abolish
sectarian schools and predicted dis
aster to those who still stood out
against their abolition. He also re-
ferred Indignantly to statue of Pierre
Marquette, robed IN the gown of a
Jesuit priest and decorated with the
paraphernalia of his church, which is
shortly to be erected in Statuary hall
in the presence of high dignitaries of
the Catholic church.

TWO ELECTRIC NOVELTIES.
A Battery In Mans Hat and an Incaa
descent Light For Carriages.

descent Light For Carriages.
Two novel applications OF the portable
inoandescent light, supplied from storage
battery, have appeared recently in the
streets of New York. One is the use Of
the electric lights in carriage lamps.
Many private carriages now have the cleo
trio lamps, and they are a great improve
ment, both in usefulness and attractive
ness, over the Pickering candles. Usually
O small bulb, IA inches long, of two to
four candle power, is used. One carriage
that has been seen on most opera nights
lately waiting outside the Metropolitan
Opera House has cluster of three small
bulbs in each lamp, and the glass of the
lamps is cut heavily in patterns that re-
fraot the rays in brilliant manner. The
light is strong enough to be striking with
out being spectacular, and the turnout has
a decidedly smart appearance.
The other use of the portable light is the
latest wrinkle in advertising novelties. A
tall man, wearing high silk hat, strolls
leisurely along upper Broadway, where the
crowds are thickest every night There is
nothing remarkable in his appearance.
Suddenly his silk hat seems to burst into
flames, and on the back and front appear,
in glowing letters of red, white and blue
lights, three lines of words advertising a
new article for sale in this city. The
words fame forth in startling aistinctness
for few seconds and then disappear as
suddenly as they appeared. The man
saunters along, all the time apparently en-
tirely unconscious of the phenomenon in
his hat. The novel advertisements attracts
the attention of allthe pedestrians in sight
Of it, and they turn round to watch the
flaming letters as these burst out and fade
away every half minute or so. There is
an incandescent electric light bulb in the
mans hat, supplied from storage battery
carried in his coat pocket and q button in
the palm of his glove switches the light on
and off. The transparent letters cut in
the hat do not show whom the light is
turned off.-New York Sun.

Two Nicaraguan States Rise in
Armed Rebellion.
Martial Law Proclaimed and
Many Men Impressed.
DETAILS VERY MEAGER
All Communication With the
Districts Cut Off.
Both States Numerously Popu-
lated and Revolutionary.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Feb. IS. -
News has been received here of the
outbreak of revolt, and the districts
north of Lake Managua, comprising
the departments of the West and of
the North, both of them numerously
populated, are in full revolution and
are armed against President Zelaya.
The president has lost no time in
proclaiming martial law, and is re-
cruiting the army rapidly, having
already impressed many men.
The revolutionists are faction of
the political party now in power in
Nicaragua, and the opposition party
seems quiet at present, with no pur-
pose of joining the revolution.
All mail and Geographic communi-
cation between Managua and the dis
turbed districts in the West and North
has been stopped. Details of the con-
dition of affairs are, therefore, meager.

MONETARY VIEWS.
Secretary Carlisle Meets New York
Bankers in Conference.

Secretary Carlisle Meets New York
Bankers In Conference.
New YORK, Feb. 25.-Secretary of
the Treasury Carlisle and the leading
bank presidents of New York con-
ferred Yesterday afternoon at the
Fifth Avenue hotel. The subject of
the conference was sound financial
legislation.
At the conclusion of the conference
it was stated only the members of the
sound currency committee of the
Chamber of Commerce had been in
vited to meet the secretary. The gen
tlemen mentioned were in Mr.. Car
isles private room for upward of an
hour and a half. When they left Gus
tave 81. Schwab said the time had
been devoted to a general exchange of
views concerning the financial situa-
ton and the best methods of carrying
on the sound money campaign.
Mr.. Schwab added that the only
definite outcome of the conference was
that it was decided to call special
meeting of the sound currency com
mi*tee of the chamber to be held at
2:3O Wednesday afternoon.
Mr.. Carlisle said he believed that
both political parties would adopt
''sound money" p1anks in their plat
forms; he was confident that this
course would be followed by the Dem
ocrats. He said reports from all Sec
tions showed that the movement for
sound monev" was gaining in popu-
lar favor. The late popular loan, he
added, was fine evidence of confidence.

A Remarkable Feat.

Perhaps the most remarkable feat OF
building moving was that successfully 40
complished in Chicago recently when a
large stone church with a massive square
tower was lacked up from its foundations
and moved distance of so feet to another
lot. The church was moved in order to ad-
NIT light into the rooms of a big hotel on
Michigan avenue at the corner of Twenty
third street. The hotel directly adjoined
the Emmanuel Baptist church, and new
owners of the hotel figured that the rooms
next the church would be worth vastly
more if they had more light. They paid
for the entire cost of moving the church,
bought new land for it to stand on and
also bought the lot from which it was
moved. The moving was done with en-
tire safety and success.-New York Sun.
