WAsHINGroN, March 2.--lntense
interest centeled here last night i'll
the dispatches showing the demon
strative feelings cxising in Spain
against the Americans regarding the
Cuban question and the statement
that the government is increasing its
naval force. Copies of dispatches re-
ceived were shown to public men in
terested in the question. No surprise
was expressed at demonstrations that
have occurred. In fact, snch were
expected. The speeches i'll the senate,
extracts (which have no doubt been
published in the Spanish papers, have
had their influence on the masses of
people, who are impusive, excited
and inspired with patriotic feelings,
aud they nave been thrown into au
unlriondly movement against the
United States officials. The whole
matter is regarded here simply as that
OF mob violence, Tor which the Span
ish government has not in any man
ner been responsible. SO far rs could
be learned last night no official news
had been received here by the govern
ment. Steps undoubtedly will be
taken very promptly to ascertain the
situation through the state depart
ment channels, If Minister Taylor at
Madrid or Consul Bowen at Barcelona
do not anticipate the officials and make
report. The Spanish minister, Senior
de LONE, heard of the happenings in
Spain through the Associated Press
dispatches, and he was besiegcd by
reporters for expressions OF his opin-
ion, but lie declined to give anything
for publication, pending news from
his government.

The initial steps have been taken in
an enterprise which, when completed,
will give the American Museum of Nat
ural History collection unique of its
kind. The idea is to have model fig
ures representing at least one type
from every race of human beings on
the globe Such vast undertaking
will, Of course, take years to consum-
mate and can only be carried on by
degrees.
The old Wood hall, where specimens
of American wood are shown, will con-
tain the specimens. DR.. Boaz. professor
of anthropology to the museum, has
already plaster casts and measurements
of faces. hands and feet of number of
Indian tribes of the North Pacific coast
and a few models of some of the Brit
ish Columbia Indians will be ready
next week. Special attention will be
paid to the aborigines Of this continent
and there are now nine museum at
taches busy taking measurements of
aboriginal tribes west of the Rockies.
Plaster casts will be taken of the
faces, hands and feet and photographs
of the whole figure, full face and profile,
and exhaustive measurements will be
made of the physique. With these data
to work upon plaster figure will be
cast and then clothed in the costume
of the native represented. The figures
will not be shown merely standing up
but groups will be designed showing
the mode of life and occupation of the
different races.--New York World.

WAsHfNoroN, Feb. 25. The house
yesterday in committee of the whole,
after very interesting debate, by a
vote of 93 to 81, decided that none of

only sectarian schools to which money
now goes is Roman Catholic in denom-

most pronounced and openly avowed
a. z. A. member on the floor. In last
years bill the appropriation was cut
down 20 per cent, but Mr., Linton
moved an amendment TO the effect
that no portion of this should go to
secretarian schools.

SETTLED THE DIFFICULTY.

After Cussing Each other tho Two Mis-
sourians became Good Friends.
"Cussin out" used to be one Of the
ways Of settling controversies in the
Ozark country, says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat. 1t originated with old Uz
Findley and John Carter The Find
deys came from Georgia. Old Uz took
a great interest in politics and wher-
ever he went he was followed by ven
cradle negro named Bosen, whose duty
it was to steer his master home when
he needed help. At one Of the early
elections old w and John Carter be-
came very angry at each other 1t
locked as if nothing but a fight could
settle the issue between them, when
suddenly old w shouted: "Mr. Car
ter, stand and be cussed."
Carter removed his hat, walked out
about ten PAGES from the crowd and
told old w to go ahead. Findley re-
moved his hat and walking out in front
of Carter said, with deliberation and
emphasis; "Mr. Carter, If this earth
was one piece of parchment and the sea
OuC Ddoih VI lin anu SNSiJ Yum upOh
earth was one quill and had the power
TO use that quill, that parchment and
Eat ink, would fall short, sir, of being
able to describe the corruption of your
old heart, sir
Carter never said word, but stood
with uncovered head until Uz was
through. Then he said: "Mr. Findley,
stand, sir, until cuss you" Old Uz
bowed his head and Carter said; "Mr
Findley, had l all of the talents ever
produced in Europe and America com
bined in solid phalanx and was to I'M
dertake to speak of you 1 would then
fall short of describing the corruption
of your old heart, sir"
This settled the difficulty The two
men resumed friendly relations. The
custom of that "cussin' out" was thus
introduced in the Ozark country.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.--This was
day that will be remembered in the
life of the republican party. For the
first time it was announced that it
was Impossible to do any thing
toward the relief of the country, and
this announcement was greeted as
nothing new. In fact it did not
create even ripple of surprise. Nor
rill made a last effort to briug up the
tariff bill for discussion, and when he
moved this he was met with the OPP
position of enough republicans to
beat him with eleven votes. He said
that this settled the matter, and ii
was evident that the republicans did
not have a majority in the senate.
His words were pitched in a plaintive
key, and he fairly shed tears as he
threw up the sponge and iutimated
i'll his language that the grand old
party had abandoned the hope OF
tariff legislation. When his PROPOSE
ton was made on a former day it was
beaten by eight votes, and from that
time to this it has been the constant
endeayor of the leaders to get the
lines together.

Your baby is the most lovely that

Ion in Ladies' Home Journal, but do
not let strangers in their desire to ex-
press their admiration of it, kiss the
little lips that cannot object, or clasp
tightly in their arms the little body
that is. as yet, so tender So many little
ones are injured by promiscuous kissing
that the wise mother tells the nurse
that once she knows outsiders are per-
mitted to kiss the baby her discharge
