SPANS ACTION IN 1861.
Translation OF the Decree Issued
During Our Civil War.

The following is a translation OF the
Spanish decree OF June IL, 1861, by
which the queen OF Spain recogn lied the
belligerency of the Confederates, declar-
ing neutrality between the parties to
the contest. 1t is interesting to observe
that this decree was issued but about
two months after Fort Sumter was fired
upon, while the proposed action by this
government comes more than one year
after the beginning of hostilities in Cuba
The Spanish decree is as follows:
Considering the relations which exist
between Spain and he United States OF
America, and the expediency of not
changing the reciprocal relations of friend
ly understanding on account OF the grave
events which have happened in that re-
public, have resolved to maintain the

An experienced telegraph operator can,
from merely listening to the sounds, un-
derstand message on one kind OF tele-
graph instrument without seeing it at all.
One day an inspector walked into an Of
fee, and began to question the clerk in
charge. Suddenly message began to
arrive, and the clerk sat down TO write it.
The message was as follows:
''Look out for squalls. The inspector
is somewhere on the line, and will be
poking bis nose in everywhere"
The inspector smiled as he listened to
the message, while the poor clerk looked
quite helpless. His superior, however,
went to the instrument aud sent back
the answer: "Too late. He has already
poked his nose in here"

what n German wsuit Did.

A German lawsuit caused woman to
be sworn 1900 times-a process which in
volved kissing the bible foi three whole
days. Her deceased husbands estate
was much involved. He had been lum-
Der dealer, and during his long business
career certain cabnet-maker had kept a
running account with him. Their bust
ness relations were so complicated at the
time OF the merchants death that there
was difference OF opinion between the
executors and the cabinet-maker as TO the
amount the latter owed the estate. The
matter was brought into the courts, and
at the trial the reading of the defendant 3
affidavit consumed II hours. Then the
widow was cited before the magistrates,
and during her testimony, so foreign
paper says, WAS obliged to make oath 1900
times, once for each Of the 1900 litigious
points involved in the suit. This took
three whole sittings Of the tribunal, but
she won the suit. She knew she was
right and was willing to swear to it.

The Outdoor Woman.

From Harper's Bazaar.
Although much has been said, and some
of it undoubtedly with truth, about the
way N which golf has gradually thrust
lawn tennis out of the place 1t once held
IN popular favor, the effect of the new
game IN this direction has certainly been
somewhat exaggerated. Tennis is so far
from being dead, as many of the golf en-
thus.asts have declared. that the adjective
as applied TO L IS wholly absurd. 1t IL true
that private courts are not seen nearly SOY
often now as they were a few years ago.
but the explanation of THIS fact Is that
tennis has become almost entirely a club
game. In doing so, however, IL has mere
~ followed the general tendencies of the
day. Unquestionably sufficient interest
has been shown IN the principal tennis
events CT the past season 10 prove 10 low
ers Of the game that there - no occasion
for abandoning Il in favor OF any other.
When we think Of the number Of peop.e IN
this country who are Interested IN outdoor
sports. and the variety Of tastes which
they display IN regard to them, II IS ride
ulous to imply that there Is not room for
all thai we have yet adopted. and even
for the Introduction Of new ones, without
any necessity fer conflict. There have
been some people Of course who have
dropped tennis IN favor Of golf, but even
IL tn humble had been much larger, there
would stu be. plenty of adherents to the
oder game, which has far too many ex-
cellent points ever 10 permit !ts abandon
ment. D..

Gen. Thomas, who was my ideal of a

where he could get n good view of the
enemy. The bullets were coming thick
from one quarter among the trees. Ho
didn't seem TO mind il, but turned his
field glass on that particular point and
surveyed il carefully. Then he ordered
up seventy pieces of artillery, and we
opened up. In a short time that terri
tory became quiet and We had no moro
trouble from there.
1T was a ticklish kind of business,
that of studying the situation with bull
lets whizzing by and cutting the twigs
every moment, The general might
have sent somebody else to do il for
him and bring back a report, but no
words could have described the condi-
tons as he could get them for himself,
and, knowing this, he took the risk
without hesitation. remember he ex-
