LOCATION OF CHIEF GOMEZ.
Well Out of a Region in Which He Was to
Have Been Trapped.


HAVANA, Jan. l0.-News has been re-
ceived that Maxine Gomez with =, 900 OF
the insurgent forces has again passed the
plantation of San Antonio and the towns
of Alquizar and Guira Melena. His pres.
cnt whereabouts and his proposed destina-
ton are not at present known, but his
movement is practically countermarch
over the same route by which he entered
the province of Pinar del Rio. Guira Ne
lena is on a line almost directly south of
Havana. Gomez is therefore well out OF
the region in the province of Pinar del
Rio in which it was said he was being en-
meshed as in a trap.

Cabinet Crisis In Germany.

LONDON, Aug. 25.-The Berlin CORE
spondent of The Times says: 1.-THE danger
of n cabinet crisis and the resignation Of
Chancellor Hohenlohe seems to have been
averted by the statement of The Reich
sanzelger that Emperor William desires a
bill to be drawn and submitted to the
bundesrath relative to reform In the Grim
inal procedure Of the army This accept
ance of measure along the lines Of the
recent speeches Of Prince Hohenlohe indi-
Gates that the steady pressure of public
sentiment has resulted in the defeat of the
irresponsible military coterie, whose grow
ing influence in the highest quarters had
threatened to render the imperial chan
cellor's position untenable."

Senses Of Smell and Taste In Fishes.

The senses Of smell and taste appear
to be well developed in the great major.
ity Of the fish species. Tobacco thrown
overheard from vessels is often seized
by mackerel and halibut, but is imme-
diately rejected. Nearly all varieties of
fish, and more especially the ground
SWIMMER, have choice of food. Hall
but and cod are attracted q great dis
lance by certain kinds of bait. Herring,
when fresh and in good condition. are
splendid bait for cod, but are Of no use
whatever if they have become stale from
long keeping. Catfish, buffalo and one
or two varieties of the bass will bite
bacon when they will pay no attention
whatever to tho luscious angleworln.
The above and other facts which could
easily be cited in proof have caused fish
crmen and scientists to come to the con-
clusion that the senses of smell and taste
are both remarkably developed among
the tinny tribes Louis Republic.

PENNSYLVANIA GOLD DEMOCRATS.
Every County Represented With but Two
Exceptions.

PHILADELPHIA Aug. 25.-Nearly all the
delegates to the state convention of gold
Democrats, which meets in this city this
afternoon, are in the city. That there is
considerable interest taken in the conven-
ton is shown by the fact that every county
in the state, with one or two exceptions, is
represented by one or more delegates.
The work mapped out for today will
consist Of the election Of sixtyfour dele
gates to the national convention at Indian
apolis, the nomination of thirty-two cleo
toral candidates, and the appointment of
the state committee, with one member
from each congressional district.
According to John G. Bullitt chairman
of the convention, the question of recon-
mcnding the placing Of u third presiden-
tial ticket in the field has not been consid-
cred. Chief interest, Of course, centers in
the piatforin to be adopted. This docu-

A Fight in the Pulpit.

MACON, Co., Aug a5.-A sensation was
created in the leading Methodist church in
this city, caused by difficulty between
Rev. Alonzo Monk, pastor of the church,
and Tildsn Adamson, reporter Of the
Daily Telegraph. Mr.. Adamson reported
the Rev. Monks sermon last Sunday,
which was pronounced by the pastor to
be incorrect. But at last nights service
Mr.. Monk in his sermon was particularly
severe on the reporter, and reflected on
him in such manner as to cause Mr..
Adamson to resent it at the end Of the
sermon. Deacons Of the church rushed
forward, and an exchange Of blows be-
tween them and the reporter followed.
The newspaper man stood firm and de-
Tended himself as best he could against
odds, Order was restored by the police.
