A Crowd of Curious People.

Yesterday afternoon a resident of this

When Mr.. Bryan was concluding his re-
marks, the citizen turned to a friend and
said:

have heard no argument. He simply makes
assertions, and assertions that cannot be
proved by argument based on facts"

ceiving encouraging letters from members

regular trips These letters indicate that
the other cities and towns of the State will
send a large number of pilgrims to swell

eight hundred will go from this city and
that more than that number will go from
other points in the State, most of whom
will either come here to start. or will join
the train before 1T gets out of the State.
This club will also form and have a

on account of the members not being

the parade of the wheelmen. The Bald

furnish music for the occasion.

Death Of Mrs. George Walker.

Mrs. Maggie M. (Seymour), wife OF Mr..
George Walker, died at the Mary Fletcher
hospital in Burlington, Saturday, March
9TH, after an unsuccessful operation for
appendicitis.
Mrs. Walker, who had been In failing
health since the death OF her father, the
late John Seymour, was taken to the hos
pital January 4th, and week after, the
operation was performed. Owing to the
many adhesions, the operation was very
difficult one to perform and very unsat-
isfactory one as to its results for it failed
to remove the cause Of her trouble, and in
taking up the coils Of the intestines the
knife slipped, infiicting wound that
further complicated the serious aspect OF
the case,
Nine days after the first, second oper-
alton was attempted, but the patient was
too weak to endure it, and from that time
steadily declined In strength until death
released her from her sufferings.
She was not quite thirty-fve years OF
age. and had many friends to whom the
trying circumstances connected wit her
death are an additional sorrow. Her hus-
band has the sympathy Of every one In
his affection. A mother and four broth
ers also survive her.

) HAVANA Jan. 9.-The advance column
of Gomez's army is camped in the
mountainous country in the province of
Pinar del Rio, thirty five miles west of

The main body of insurgent troops is
in sight of Havana and skirmishing with
the Spanish regulars is con-
stantly going on. 1t is not be-
lieved, however, that Gomez will attack
Havana. He is too wary for that. There
are in the insurgent army under Gomez,
all told, less than II 900 men. The Span
ish in Havana number at least 10000
Marshal Campos would welcome an at
tack under these circumstances, and
General Gomez is too shrewd to accom-
modate the Spanish commander.
He has sent couriers TO the eastern
provinces for reinforcements, and VIII
scarcely push the campaign until the re-
cruits arrive, and until the insurgent
sympathizers in Havana have perfected
their plans.
Campos is apparently afraid to engage
the insurgents army outside the city.
Gomez has attempted several times
to draw the enemy out, but thus
far without avail. He will con-
tinue to harass Campos until a def
mite understanding with the people at
Havana has been reached. Then the
decisive battle of the war will be fought.
General Gomez is counting upon an up
rising in the capital and he plans an at
tack on the city simultaneously with
this outbreak.
In the meantime, Gomez will cover
Havana, both from the east and west,
and prevent the exodus of any consider
able body of spanish troops, while the
advance column in Pinar del Rio will

Curtis Bill Seeks to Abolish
These Useless Ports.

From the State Journals Special Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9. - The figures
which Representative Curtis has prepar-
ed to go with his bill, providing for the
abolishment of certain ports which he has
introduced in the house, show that the
government is simply throwing away
money at these places.
Mrs. Curtis bill provides for the dis
continuance of a long list of ports and
their consolidation with other ports in
the same district. This is to be done by
the secretary of the treasury and he is
not to increase the expenses in clerk hire,
etc., of the ports with which the discon-
tinued ones are consolidated unless it is
absolutely necessary.
Following is list of the ports which
are abolished by Mr.. Curtis bill, together
with the amounts of receipts and expen-
di:ures. according to the last report:
