THE CASE OF CUBA.

1t is evident Ina Spain is making a
desperate effort to bring the war in
Cuba to a close. General Weyler has
entered upon a campaign in which he
has practically put everything at stake.
and the question of his success or fail
ure is an important one / o the United
States in its probable determining eff
feet as to the future relations between
our country and Spain. 1t is possible.
of course. that conditions may arise
which will neceSSitate hostile action on
the part of our government; but a sit
uation of that kind is not to be regard
ed as a probability in the light of pres
n circumstances. The course OF the
Cleveland administration, following
that of previous administrations in
| X cases, has been one of non-inter-
ference and strict respect for interna-
tional precedents and obligations: and
there is not likely t be a sudden de-
parture from that policy without some
decidedly serious p~rovocation. 1t is n

has failed in her duty to protect the in

in several instances harassed and de-

spirit. These things are annoying and
will have to be stopped, but there is no
reason to believe that a wal will be re-
quired for that purpose.
Another and a graver aspect of the
case is presented by the question of our
duty in the way Of using proper in
fuence to restore peace and prosperity
to Cuba as soon as possible, not simply
for the protection of our own interests,
but in the general service of civiliza-

All manner of odd cOnccits are
brought into play with the nCw craze
for braided gowns. 1t requires II master
gown. Every bit Of it must look as per-
feet as Il die, yet it must be all hand
work, or it is not up to date. Black
braid Is put upon gowns of all colors,
from pale Grays and tuns to black, and
with equally good effect. Shades of
brown braid are also employed nicely
upon certain shades of blue, tan and
smoke gray. y fetching gown i'll the
latter dainty color is made up of smooth
English melton, lined throughout with
rustling golden brown taifctu and richly
braided with the same shade of silk
braid. The skirt is cut to measure five
yards at the foot and is trimmed with IL
curved border Of brown braid set on in a
fantastic way. The blouse bodice is
drawn Il IA belt Of brown velvet. The
entire body IS braided over in rows,
ending i'll figures to match the skirt, tho
braiding extending over the hips II short
distance and over the tops of the leg of
mutton sleeves. Double cuffs of the vel
vet and an odd double collar finish the
waist. Military effects are much used in
b%raiding. Very little is put upon the
skirt, but quantities arc lavished upon
he bodices. Sometimes the entire sleeves
are braided over i'll narrow, curved lines,
finished with tiny loops. A gown Of
white alpaca is enriched by the bodice
being braided deliberately with black out
ing appliqued figures of royal purple
broadcloth. Chicago Times-Herald.

struction Of country house. q most
Important and vexins problem cOIr
fronts tho builder. The disposal OF
sewage In the country has caused mora
trouble than gil of the other features
of house building and management puf
together; even the near neighborhood
Of O running stream into which tho
sewage may be discharged does not
afford relief. Those who dwell lower
down on the stream are likely to make
complaint Of the cOntaminations, and
they may ask relief from the law At
the present time the main reliance Is
uppn ccsspools, but they nre always
filthy contrivances, and serve as n con-
stant menace to health. The sewage
matter accommodating for months in the
cesspools putrefies and becomes indie
scribably lOathsOine- The liquid mat

saturates the soil. AS this is not acces-
sible to the purifying agency OF sunlight

Therefore, one has close to his house
at all times sewage matter In its most
dangerous form. 1t may seem from
this that the whole question Of sewage
disposal In country houses Is absolutely
hopeless Of solution, but this Is far from
the case. At a recent meeting in New

dresses ON Country House Sewage"
and the former gentleman has written
an article describing and fully illustrat-
ing a system for the disposal OF liquid
wastes for isolated houses In O recent
Issue Of "Shoppell's Modern Houses"
published In New York. Both Of these
gentlemen are thoroughly opposed to
the cesspool system, and advocate the
face of the ground. At the first glance
this seems most repugnant 10 the un-
Initiated. who conceive of sewage as
the contents of the cesspoOl after 1t has
putreflcd. But fresh sewage that Is de-
livered upon the surface is absolutely
lnodorous and inoffensive. According
to the Massachusetts standard 1t con-
sists Of 99S parts of water, one part Of

offensive. Two sections Of land arc
made available. and the dow is daily
diverted from one to the other. thus
giving the soil a chance to recuperate.

In charge was much perpleXed as to
fire insurance. They found that no
company would assume the risk on
such n valuable wooden structure, the
danger of destruction by fire being
very great, and thus the premiums
would amount to an enormous sum of
money. At last the committee decided
on a design devised by DIR. Tanabe.
Numbers Of powerful fountains were
constructed, both exterior and interior,
which can he made to play on all parts
of the structure at the same time.
Usually only one great ornamental
fountain Is playing, rising to the great
height If LOT feet. This is probably
the largest artificial fountain in exist

In case of fire all the water pressure
is directed through fountains. Thus
