Women and Children Shot in Cold Blood
At Sabanilla.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. "A Key West
Fla, dispatch says: Some time
ago, when the insurgents entered
Sabanilla, the Spanish official re-
ported that they were driven out
by the garrison and that unfortu-
nately three women were killed by
stray bullets. The truth of what
happened there has been learned,
and it shows that the Spaniards
are acting as barbarously in Cuba
as the Kurds in Armenia. Sabanil-
la, which is an important town in
Matanzas province, was entered
by 400 insurgents under Garcia.
The Spanish volunteers, however,
retreated to the church and fired
on the insurgents. The insurgents
returned the fire killing five volun-
teers. The volunteers then ceased
firing. The Inhabitants received
the insurgents joyfully and many
poor people who had eaten nothing
but cane were fed by Garcia who
made the merchants open their
stores and told the people to take
food. Thirty stores were looted of
provisions aud one storekeeper
was shot for resisting. The in
surgents then retired. AS soon as
they had gone the Spanish volun-
teers came out Of the church and
opened fire on the people in the
streets. Forty-six were killed,
thirty of whom were women and
children. Their only offense was
cheering the insurgents and taking
food to save themselves from star
walton. After shooting these
people the volunteers took
ten Cubans who had surrendered
on promise Of amnesty and shot
them in cold blood. Two thousand
men, women and children have
reached Sabanilla, Mantanzas.
They fled fearing further massa-
ores by the Spanish volunteers.
These are facts vouched for by
Mayor Juan Galvez of Sabanilla,
who is in Havana to ask General
Marin to punish the volunteers.

Tho exposure to all sorts and
conditions Of weather that lum-
herman is called upon to endure in
the camps often produces severe
colds, which, II not promptly
checked, result in congestion or
pneumonia. Mr.. J. o. Davenport,

wood Co., an immense institution
at Fort Bragg. Cal, says they sell
large quantities Of Chamberlsin's
Cough Remedy, at the company's
store and that he has himself used
this remedy for a severe cold and
obtained immediate relief. This
medicine prevents any tendency of
cold toward pneumonia and in
sures a prompt recovery. For sale

Heat Value of Coal.

The important fact has over. aud over
again been stated by those wo have in
vestigated the subject with scientific ex.
actness that only about 6 OF 8 per cent
Of the total heat value Of coal is utilized
in an engine by heating transformed
into power. In tracing up this loss it is
stated that there are required some
1909 degrees Of heat, or heat units
not degrees of tomperature-to change
one pound Of water into steam, while
during the absorption Of this amount Of
heat the temperature of the water re-
mains at 212 degrees. This immense
amount of steam is rendered latent and
does not sensibly affect the thermometer
Scientific authorities explain the cause
of this loss in the steam engine as due
to the fact that the 900 degrees absorbed
by water in being transferred into steam
-212 degrees are apparent upon Their
mometer, and which, added to 900,
make up the 1909 degrees above men
toned go into the engine unindicated
by the thermometer, leave in the same
manner and 60 to waste.-New York

Eraain: the Press Gang.

It was not an easy matter to get
married in press gang times. Robert
Miller, a Kirkwall man, found this to
be tho case. He returned from the
whaletishing ono autumn, fully resolved
that he should take unto himself wits.
But the press gang got on his track, and
he soon saw that if he was to get his
hearts desire he would require to exert
both pluck and perseverance. At length
the fateful night arrived. The company
had gathered, and the minister was in
the house Of tho bride, prepared to pro-
coed with the ceremony, when the
dreaded press gang made it's appearance.
Ladies are not unusually Of belliger-
emit disposition, but when they saw, as
in this instance, the likelihood Of
marriage being spoiled by interlorers
they rose up in wrath against them
They assailed tho members Of the press
gang both with tongue and missiles, SO
that these gentlemen were glad to heat
hasty retreat. After this little episode
back window of the house was lifted,
and the bridegroom, dressed in woman g
clothes, bounded into the room. The
doors having been barricaded to prevent
o surprise, the clergyman proceeded to
perform the ceremony, and surely no
bridegroom was ever married in such a
strange garb Miller was never cap:
tured. he lived to ripe old age and
was the first beadle of the Kirkwall
Free church. -Chambers' Journal

CROMWELL's FIRST STATUE.

When Edward Burrough, the C,uake1
!" Apostle Of London whom George,
Fox called his ''son Of Thunder wal
passing through Charing Cross On his
way to the city, upon the s'22d dav q
the ninth month"; 1868, he found the
streets crowded with people. "Ths
guards Of soldiers, horse and foot" saws
he, "stayed me and stopped my horse and
said might not pass that way Net.

When he inquired the reason Of this
thronging and pressing of multitudes,''.
he was told that they all came out only

ture, without life or breath. which wouIl

for multitudes of foolish people to gaze
upon and wonder after and admire. -
The jealous Quaker thought the statue

the Lord to break down many idola-

over it, and his children and officers

ants OF London gazing after it? This is
sad, said l, and great pity Is this
the end and final farewell of once noble
Oliver?'' Sz
r Edward Burrough concluded that it
was" Judgement upon Cromwell to
be thus wronged after his death, because
he had suffered the servants of the Lord
(the Quakers) to be prosecuted and i'm
prisoned for crying against such things
as were popish. He says that Cromwell
himself would have been angry at it.
II knew the man when he was living
and had the knowledge of his spirit.
And l am perswaded if it had been asked
him in his lifetime if such all image
should be made like him, and then set
up III such a place, I believe he would
have denied, say, and said, It. shall
not be there for me, when / am dead 4
It it had been his bones, z added the
Quaker, II should not have had aught
against it, whereas it was but an image
made by hands. - So Burrough went

How to Clean Old Book Plates.

To restore old book plates that have
been injured by age and damp proceed
as follows: Place upon a fat surface a
sheet Of white paper, somewhat larger
than the print to be cleaned. Carefully
dampen the print on both sides with a
soft, wet sponge, and then saturate it
with mixture Of chloride Of lime and
oxalic acid dissolved in about equal pro-
portions in q pint Of cold water. You
can tell when the mixture is right by
its turning magenta color Continue to
apply it until every stain or spot has
disappeared, and then with clean
sponge wash the print freely with cold
water.-Art American.
