day from private sources which acknowl-
edged that no further doubt of Maceos
death can exist. This information comes
directly from the Cuban agents on the
island and is intended to finish the uncer-
tainty in the minds of the Cuban resi-

true.

Government OficiaIs Watching the
Yacht Advance


Norfolk, Va, Dec. 1.-THE steam yacht
Advance of New York, which arrived in
this port to-day, is being closely watched
by the government authorities. Spanish
Consul Huraphries says that In his official
capacity he is not at liberty to talk How
ever, he says that the yachts mission
has been known to the Spanish authori-
ties ever since long before she left New
York. There is no positive evidence that
she is a f1libuster, but a very vigilant eye
is being kept upon her
Washington, Dec 11.-Vigilance on the
part of the authorities of the government
against any violation of International law
or United States statutes received another
illustration to-day when Secretary car
Isle ordered the collector of customs at
Wilmington, N. c., to thoroughly investi-
gate the purposes of the yacht Vamoose
(the fast news flyer of the New York
JournaD on her cruise to the Cuban coast.
The department here has not considered it
necessary to seize the yacht, but such
have been the advices of the department
OF justice and the avowed principles of
the government on the subject of filibus-
tering, that the treasury department is
not willing to permit the slightest devia-
| ton from what it considers a correct
course to pursue concerning vessels ply
ing between our harbors and the Cuban
coast. The peacefulness of the Va
mooses mission (that of conveying news
| to and fro for a prominent metropolitan
| journaD is not questionable. The only
| theory the treasury department is acting
| upon is that of taking every precaution
| against violations of international law
| and treaty obligations. The yacht Ad-
vance is also under surveillance at Nor

 Dominic and Domino.

Differences that seem very slight in foreign or provincial words may be very real, and it is important to know and to note them. An eminent New York scholar calls attention, in this line, to an erroneous use of the word dominic" for domino" by recent contributor to The Sunday School Times. He says;
 ''The terms dominic and domino both are plainly derived from the Lat in, but do not mean the same thing. The former is a Scottish usage for schoolmaster only, and is universally known because of Dominic Sampson in one of the Waverley novels. The lat ter is Hollandish. respectful designa- tion for minister of the gospel only. It is used very generally in the Dutch churches in this country, but always in a reverent and, indeed, affectionate sense. It appears to me that the two terms should not be confounded, but invariably confined to that application which is required by their historic or igin. :"
 This distinction is not generally known, although the dictionaries point it out Sunday School Times.

The Cursed Tower of the Rhone.

The cursed tower is an architectural curiosity. It is almost as far out from the perpendicular as is the tower at Pisa and is far more impressive, be- cause it stands upon an isolated crag which drops below it sheer to the river in vast precipice. Aneiently, before it went wrong and its curse came upon it, the tower was the keep of the Benedic- tine nunnery of Soyons. Most ungallant- ly, in the year 1869, the Huguenots cap tured the abbey by assault. and there upon the abLess, Louise Amanze (poor frightened soulD hurriedly embraced the reformed religion, in dread lest, without this concession to the rather de- cided opinisus of the conquerors, still worse might come. Several of her nuns followed her hastily heterodox example, but the mass of them stood stoutly by their faith and ended by making off with it intact to Valence. Thomas A. JanYier i'll Century.

..E PIuribus Unumr on Our Coins.

According to the United States mint officials, the words, E Pluribus Unum, :" as they appear on our coins, are there without the sanction of law The legend first appeared upon a copper coin struck at the Newburg ( N Y mint in the year 17S6. The United States was very young at that time and could not afford the luxury of a mint, so 8 private individual of the name of Brasher opened the Newburg coining es- tablishment with the intention of turn ing out money of the realm for all corners. Exactly how the words "E Pluribus Unum" came to be used as a motto is not known, but one thing is certain, the Brasher copper coin bear ing that legend and the date of 1786 is the most valuable metal disk ever mint ed on this continent, being worth about 2,000, or twice as much as the famous rare dollar of 1894.
 Some time after coining his famous copper with the odd Latin motto as above described Brasher tried his hand on large sized goldpiece, producing the coin known to the numismatists as 'Brasher's twenty" The Brasher twenty" was not $20 goldpiece, however, for it lacked $4 of weighing enough, but of late years it has become very scarce and valuable because of the fact that the legend inscribed upon it reads "Unum B Pluribus" instead of "E Pluribus Unum. This coin is now valued at $1, 500.-St. Louis Republic.
