that of dog belonging to the wife of
Michigan senator. She had several
rice dogs of fancy breeds, and | noticed
that one Of them acted strangely. The
telephone directory of that day had my
name we'll up on top in the list of
dentists, and | presume that is why

dentists to be called to the houses of pa
tients who are sick or otherwise unable
to go to the dentist, and l packed up
a few necessaries and started. | was

of the sufferings of Madge. l took 1t
that Madge was either Il child or
favored servant, and tripped as softly
as / could upstairs to the room TO
which l was directed. | noticed there
were two or three little pug dogs in the
room, but did not dream that Madge
was one of them. In few moments
the lady came up and picking up the
dog spoke sympathetic;-lly of Madge's
sutferings. l was in for it. and in a

she was thre4 teeth short. | was asked

NINE. NORDICA ANGRY.
Says She VIII Not Appear Again with
Jean De Reszke.

Jean De ResZke.
Nine. Lillian Nordica has refused to
renew her contract with the Metropoli-
tan Opera company, and has left New
York, declaring in IL huff that she win
not appear in any role with Jean de
ResZke again.
She says, among other things, that
Melba has been favored all along be
cause she is an American, while she
(Nordica) has been subjected to out
rageous treatment by the singers and
by De ResZke in particular.
When Nordicsis long statement was
shown to NJ. de PesZke he manifested
what appeared to be unfeigned aston
lshment. Why" exclaimed the tenor,
this is awful; ittis ridiculous. There
is not word Really, though, this
statement is absurd. That l requested
the Metropolitan opera management
to give certain parts in Wagner operas
to Mime. Melba IS without the slightest
foundation. | have. indeed, urged Nine
Melba to master the German tongue,
just as have urged every other singer
with whom have come in contact.
In Chicago last year we had our first
experience. and ] told every member of
the company at the time that they
should learn German If Mime. Nordica
declares | have made as much as S..

$4,000 if she can prove il. have never
reached that sum in one performance.
Professional jealousy? Who knows?"
and the singer shrugged. his shoulders
in deprecatory way.
Nine. Melba, too, has,left town, and
there is a decided futter in the circles

THE OLDEST SPORT.
Hunting and Fishing Were Means of Live
lihood to Primitive Man.


Somebody has asked which is the
oldest sport and started a discussion
that has already put the antiquity of
games beyond the middle ages. Hunt
ing and fighting were primitive mans
chief occupations, says the New York
Journal.
These, as civilization developed, were
gradually converted from being means
of livelihood into pastimes. But it is
impossible to tell exactly when the
change took place, for it is not even yet
complete, and what is sport to the
squire and amateur is necessary work
to the gamekeeper and professional
soldier.
Nimrod, Noah's grea3-grandson, was
q mighty hunter before the Lord" and
as he was mighty one in the earth"
he probably hunted for pleasure. This
is the oldest record of a sport.
The stag and its kind, which make
the greatest demand on the skill and
endurance of the hunter. would prob
ably be the first animal pursued for
pleasure. To hunt the lion was ltingly
sport from the earliest times.
The Egyptian monuments show that
all kinds of hunting, as we'll as fowling,
were followed for pleasure. The Olym-
pic games were probably the oldest
athletic sports and their origin is lost
in antiquity. They are said 10 celebrate
Jupiter's defeat of the Titans
The moment that young crocodile
purposes as active as it is at any tire
during its life 1t will make strair. :
for the water, even if it be out of sigLT
and good distance of, and it Will Euf
sue its prey with eagerness and agility
during the first hour of it's free exist
ence.

Committee rleeting.

The committee on resolutions held
meeting at LIS p. M, but the views
OF the members were so diverse that
nothing could be accomplished. Diff
ferent members presented their ideas,
many being in favor of collecting the
poll tax in money, and taking some
decided stepe forward as soon as the
times are better. Attorney A. b.
Choate, of Minneapolis, was called on,
and suggested that the committee
was too large to do much, and that a
subcommittee should prepare the res
olutlons. On motion of Geo. w. Allyn,
Chairman Palmer appointed a sub
committee, composed of Mr.. Allyn,
Peter McGrath and M. B. Haynes, to
prepare resolutions to submit to the
general committee. This subcommit-
tee withdrew for consultation.

PHILADELPHIA, June 6.-The Cubans OF
this city We're considerably elated today
over the arrival of authentic news con.
flrming the safe landing Of the last expe-
dition, carried by the steamer Three
Friends. The information came directly
from DIR. Portuondo, sub-secretary of the
Republican government, who is now with
President Cisneros Betancourt at Cubitas
mountain.
A second letter tells of the preparations
that had boen made for several weeks by
the Spanish commander in Puerto Prin.
eipe, General Mella with the idea of at.
taoking and capturing the naturally forti-
fled rebel capital. Without waiting to at
tack with his entire force General Mella
sent Brigadief General Arloso ahead, with
1900 infantry and 400 cavalry, to storm
the outposts at the foot of Cubitas noun
tain, seven miles from the headquarters Of
the Cuban government. The total Cuban
force at Cubitas numbered less than 1000
men, but the supply of arms and ammuni-
were advantageously placed among the
huge rocks far up on the mountain side.
General Arloso left the city of Puerto
Principe on May 26, and on the 2Sth was
| encamped near the Paso Marti, named in
honor of the late Cuban president He did
not attempt an attack that night, but on
the morning of the goth the Cuban guns
began "a fire and he ordered a forward
movement. For two hours the first en-
circling ridge of the mountain protected
the troops, but when Arlosos men reached
! the second plain "A fierce fire from the
rocky ramparts above withered his col
umns and he ordered a hearty retreat
Many of the Spanish dead and wounded
were carried away by their comrades, but
over hundred were left among the rocks
and chapperal on the second plain.
On the morning of the 30th Arloso moveC
in the direction Of Puerto Principe, and a
second attack is not expected by President
Cisneros The latter viewed the battle
from the summit of Cubitas, and, the let
ter declares, is much elated over the tell
ing victory.
