WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent

From Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, April Is, 1896.
Mr.. Cleveland has paid sufficient
difference to those Cuban resolu-
tions to ask Spain to accept the
mediation of the United States in
negotiating with the Cuban insur-
gents for peace; but, according to
current gossip, he doesn't wish
Spain to agree and doesn't expect
it. According to stories whispered
in inside circles, the fine hand Of
Ex-Secretary Billy Whitney is
playing the game for Mr.. Cleve-
land, having succeeded in persuad-
ing him that the only salvation Of
the democratic party lies in work.
Ing up feeling towards war with
Spain. The offer to mediate is
made for the purpose OF convincing
the world that the administration
favors a peaceable settlement and
will only resort to other methods
when Spain refuses to entertain
mediation, and to gain time. War
is not wanted now; it might be all
over before the meeting OF the
democratic national convention,
not to mention the November cleo
tion. 1t Is deep game, to take
advantage Of the general sympathy
OF this country for Cuba to boost
up the totteriug democratic party,
and to 60 into 1t, 1t was necessary
for Mr.. Cleveland to go against his
real wishes, as he had been from
the first apparently on the side OF
Spain.
Unless something unexpected
turns up to prevent Congress is
likely to break the long session
record in the date OF adjournment.
So far as the house is concerned. ii
would be easy enough to adjourn
by the first Of May, as there re,
main only two appropriation bills
Notifications, and general def
ciencies-to be disposed of, and the
first Of those will be passed this
week. Unless the emocratic sen.
ators become obstrUctionist Just to
delay adjournment, it is regarded
as probable that adjournment will
occur somewhere in the neighbor.

STOLEN PROPERTY RECOVERED
A Suspicious Character Discovered With the
Proceeds of Burglary


Some time between the hours of 2:3O
and 5 on the morning of April I'd the
house of r. S. Bodman at 1923 Overton
street was burglariZed and lot OF Valu-
able plunder secured Among the lot was
a lady's gold watch and fob chain, SIX
rings of various descriptions, one set of
earrings and breaStpin to match, and a
mans Stetson hat. The thief was not
discovered, but the officers have in the
meantime been keeping up a still hunt
for the culprit. 1t now appears that the
man has spent the greater part OF his
time in Jail since the robbery was COM
mitted, and only recently had an OPP
portunity of getting out some of the
booty to sell.
Tuesday evening the attention of
Officer Henderson was attracted to the
peculiar actions of two men on First
street. One was white, the other col
ored, and from the fragments of CONVEX
sation heard between them the patrol
man was convinced that they were
crooked He followed the pair and dis
covered the white man trying to sell a
gold ring, which evidently did not be-
long to him. This was enough, and the
two were arrested and taken to the sta
ton. The white man gave the name of
Thomas Joseph and the negro that of
Stewart.
When searched nearly the entire pro-
ceeds of the Bodman burglary were
found upon Joseph's person, and he was
booked on suspicion until the owners
could poitively identify their property
On the negro little was found, and he
will probably be released, there being
nothing to connect him with the crime
save the bad company he was in. Yes
treday Bodman fully identified his lost
property, and was overjoyed to find
everything there but the old style ear
rings and breastpin. which were of small
value anyway. The watch had not been
! removed from it's plush case and the
rings were all in good condition.
A charge of burglary was entered
against Joseph. and he will probably be
arraigned today. He has only been out
Of Jail few days and since April 1st has
been in two or three times, serving SEN
tences for drunkenness and disturbing
| the peace. The reason that the stolen
! jewelry was not found at either previous
| arrest is probably explained by the fact
| that it had been secreted in some place
| and only resurrected in order that
money might be raised to procure drink.
The neat capture reflects great credit
| upon the sagacity of Officer Henderson

Appropriate to Three Score
Years and Ten
ROSES AND REFRESHMENTS
In Token Of Friendship for Miss Helen
Peabody
Prosperous Year-Social and Personal
Notes From Pasadena

PASADENA, May 6.-Twenty or thir-
ty friends gave Miss Helen Peabody a
pleasant surprise this afternoon at her
home on South Euclid avenue, the occ-
sion being her roth birthday.
She was invited out for drive and
on her return found the guests assem-
bled, they having taken possession of the
house during her absence. They had
brought baskets filled with good things
and the refreshments were enjoyed dur
ing the afternoon. Mrs. E. A. Walker
brought a bouquet containing seventy
different varieties Of roses, one for each
year in the life Of the hostess.
Miss Peabody has been an educator
all her life. Graduating from Mt. Hol-
yoke seminary in 1S4S, she became a
teacher in that institution, remaining
in that position for five years, at the end
of which time she went to st. Louis and
taught in a young ladies' school. In
1856 she became the first principal of the
female seminary at Oxford, O., which
position she held for thirty three years,
when she was obliged to resign on ac-
count of nervous prostration, coming to
Pasadena in 1892. Five hundred and
seventeen young ladies graduated from
Oxford during Miss Peabody's active
administration. OF these about seventy
became foreign missionaries. Among
her graduates eight or ten reside In
Southern California. Miss Peabody is
still emeritus principal of Oxford col
lege and seminary, but takes no part in
it's management or teaching.
Among the guests were Rev. Herbert
Lathe and wife, Mrs. Dyer, Rev. DR..

q bountiful supper, which was followed
by the annual reports. While the year
had been one of unusual expenditure on
the necessitated enlargement Of the
house of worship, the treasurer's report
showed all the expenses met and bal
ance of 500 on hand. The congrega-
ton had increased about 40 per cent
during the year and twenty-one admit
ted to the membership of the church,
and this growth was not owing to the
work of revivalists or revival meetings.
