claims the sailors hornpipe as its own.
This is solemn affair and when danced
by a conventional jack tar is about as
tame as the spectacle of a mooley COW
grazing in a field. Ireland has its jig,
and it is seen at its best at wakes and
weddings.
The principal dance of Scotland is
the reel. This is danced on the toes TO
obtain complete control of the foot and
ankle, allowing the dancer to raise and
lower himself, according to the express
sion of the music. The ancient method
of performing the reel was to the music
of bagpipes and the clashing Of the
broadswords. The dancers gave ex-
citing cries and yells, and if the per-
Torrance did not possess the true
poetry of Terpsichore it was certainly
an awe-inspiring thing to see.
ITALY'S MANY DANCES.
Italy is nation of dancers, and each
province has a distinct dance of its
own, handed down from the fifteenth
or sixteenth centuries. The Saitarella
is the peculiar dance of Rome. 1t is a
skipping dance, written in three-quar-
ter time. The man and woman move
about in a semi-circle, the woman
flirting her apron about gracefully.
The dancers move faster and faster
until the limit of speed is reached. and
then another couple takes their place.
Sicily has the Siciliana, rather
wearisome affair, and Florence has her
Trescona, which is unique, because the
lady selects her partner by Ticking her
handkerchief in the face of the man
she fancies. Neapolitans have the Tar
antella, which is not unlike the Salt
arella. f'A
Of course the great dance of Spain is
the Fandango This word means go
and dance. It is said that the Fan
dango is at least 1000 years old. 1t is
usually danced by two people, the mu-
sic being in three-quarter time and be-
ginning in a minor key. Castanets
are the invariable accompaniment of
the Fandango, and the clicking of
these combined with the harmonious
swayings of the body and the fairy-like
steps, convey the idea of passionate
love song.
FANDANGO's NARROW ESCAPE
Many centuries ago it is related that
the Roman consistory decided that the
Fandango must be abolished. There
were some friends of the dance in the
council, however. who urged that be-
fore it be condemned it would be mere
ly an act of justice for the members
to witness it and then express their

PARIS, Nov. 3.-The Temps, in its is
sue this morning, devoted a leading
editorial to the presidential election in
the United States in which it says:
when the sun sets today. the great
republic will have decided one Of the
gravest controversies that has agitated
that country since the formation Of the
government, and the electors will have
pronounced between two radically OPP
posed tendencies-one continuing the
normal development of the states, and
the other impellirg the country towards
unknown horizons. Briefly, as between
Mckinley and Bryan, the solution IS
simply d status quo or a revolution.
It is the first time in America, and per-
haps the first time in the world, that a
like contest has been engaged in upon
questions lying upon the foundations of
social order with the issue depending
upon a single throw Of the dice.

! MONTREAL, Dec. 1.-THE strong
CANADA favorable to a separation from
Great Britain and the establishment of
an independent Ca nadiaa republic on
this continent has begun to take tang
ible shape. The organization OF in
dependence clubs has been in active
progress during the past five or six
months and a convention has been
called to meet in this city in March
next, with the object of federating all
groups and clubs OF the dominion.
Until then the chief work will be to
group individuals favoring the inde-
pendence movement throughout
Canada: that is, to effect the co-opera-
tion of all those who favor national
independence by pacific means.
The Associated Press correspondent
is informed that the movement is gain
ing ground rapidly in the rural dis
tricts, especially in Port Neuf, Drum
| mond, CRANKY and the most remote
districts. Two organizers are travel
| ing in the interest of Canadian inde-
| pendence clubs throughout the Cana
| dian centers in the United States and
in the Eastern townships, where the
idea seems to meet with great favor.

Resolutions Demanding an Investigation

Resolutions Demanding an Investigation.
WASHINGTON, Dec. IA. - Teller of
Colorado, was on the floor of the sem
ate today for the first time since the
session opened. On his desk was
large basket of flowers, tied with red,
white and blue ribbons. The vice
president announced Sherman, Elklns
and Mitchell of Wisconsin as a COM
mittee to arrange for the coming in
auguration of the president-elect.
Peffer, of Kansas, introduced COM
prehensive resolution for the appoint
ment of a commission to investigate
and report on the establishment of a
permanent monetary system.
The resolution recites that the re-
cent election did not show definitely
that the people favored any one of the
four monetary policies on which the
campaign proceeded, viz, gold mono
metalism, international bimetalism,
silver and gold at Is to /, or the 16 to-1
ratio supplemented by legal-tender
notes. The commission proposed is
to consist of one national democrat,
one republican, one democrat, and one
populist, these to elect fifth person
of recognized learning in finance.
They are to be appointed by the presi-
dent to sit in New York, Chicago, San
Francisco, Denver and New Orleans to
receive S400 each, and to conclude the
investigation within II months. The
resolution proposes an appropriation
of 5000 for the commission.
Call, of Florida, presented the fol-
lowing: "Resolved, That the killing
of General Antonio Maceo, the re-
nowned general in the service of the
republic of Cuba, while under flag of
truce and with the assurance of safety
from the Spanish captain-general, was
a violation of the rules of fcivilized war,
an outrage, base treachery, a murder,
cowardly and disgraceful. which de-
mauds the execration of every govern
ment and all the world, whether civil
ized or savage.

CHICAGO, Dec. deepest indigna-
tion is expressed in Chicago over the
latest news from Cuba, which state the
manner in which the Cuban insurg ent
leader, Maceo, was entrapped and
killed. 1t was made the topic of wide
spread discussion. and today's papers
contain interviews with many promi-
nent citizens who are outspoken in
their condemnation of General
Weyler's course.

4 DOUBLE SUICIDE.
Mother and Daughter Asphy xiated Them

Mother and Daughter Asphyxiated Them
selves in Their San Francisco Home.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 11-Mrs. Sarah
B. Cooper and her daughter Ell trriet
Cooper were found dead in their home
in this city this morning with the gas
turned on and with every evidence
that the gas was the mode used for in
tentonal death on the part of both.
Mrs. Cooper was president of the kim
dergarten association of schools, and
her daughter was deputy superin-
tendent.
Mrs. Cooper had lived here for 80
years. and was wide.l Known as an
educator, philanthropist and writer.
She was president of the Woman's s
Press Association, president of the
Woman's Suffrage Association and
was prominent as a member of the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union
For many years she had taught the
largest bible class in the city in con-
nection with the first Congregational
church, her class numbering several
hundred adults. She was also assist
ant pastor of the church under the pas.
torate of DR.. G.. o. Brown.
The Coopers had taken prominent
part in opposition to DR.. G. o. Brown
when his case was being Investigated
by the church. The part they took in
the matter estranged many old friends
and the suicide of the mother and
daughter is ascribed to brooding over
the coldness and snubs of former
friends.
Tie will of Mrs. Cooper. made yes
terday, has been found, and in 1t she
says her stated intention of commit
ting suicide would afford sufficient
proof to render unnecessary a cor
oner's investigation, and she there
fore requested that the bodies be not
taken to the morgue.

Memorial Upon the Cuban Question Being
Prepared.
MADRID, Dec. 1.-THE Spanish gov
ernment will frame a long memoran
dunn on the Cuban question, it is said,
n political and diplomatic circles,
fully setting forth Spains views re-
garding her rights and giving the
whole history of the relations between
this government and President Cleve-
land, since the beg nning of the revolt.
This memorandum will be a sort of in
direct reply to the presi tent's message. q.
1t will be communicated simultan-
eously to the American and European
governments.
The present Spanish cabinet anc the
leaders of all political parties agree in
thinking that Spain must continue to
avoid giving America the slightest
pretens. for taking offense. They al.
ways agree that Spaid should main.
tain her present friendly disposition
towards America in official relations,
80 that the whole responsibility of d
rupture, if brought about by the inter
vention threatened, should rest en-
tirely with the United States.

sorrow ~ the death OF General Macea,
and to offer their sympathy. and in
some cases help for the Cubans. These
callers included a number of congress-
men, and two senator's, whose names
the Cuban representative declined to
reveal, who told him of their desire to
see some action oy congress that would
be of assistance to the insurgents.
Senior Qlesada authorizes his former
statement that the Cubans have enough
men and leaders TO gain the cause for
which they are fighting. They can
avail themselves of $4,000 men, and
more if necessary, but what they need
is arms and ammunition, and medicine
for the sick and wounded.

MORTON TO CLEVELAND.
The Governors Views Upon the Cuban
Question,

NEW YORK, Dec. 14-Governor Nor
ton, according to a statement published
in the Evening World, sent Telegram
70 President Cleveland yesterday In
relation to the critical condition Of Gu
ban affairs and the assassination of
General Maceo in particular. The
message contained the novel sugges-
Jion that President Cleveland invite
President-elect Mckinley to Washing
ton to discuss the most feasible plan &c
be followed by the president concern
ing the attitude of the United States
toward Cuba during the remainder OF
Cleveland's term.
The World article says:
"It is not probable that Governor
Morton would have proffered his sup-
gestion unless he thought it would b,
acceptable to President-elect McKin-
ley: indeed, it is said the governor hat
had some correspondence with tn,
president-elect on the subject"

hour this morning three masked bur-
glars battered down the door of the
farmhouse of Perry Bristow, an aged
man living near here. just as they
entered the house, Miss Alice Baxter,
Bristow' housekeeper, met them with
lamp in her hand. AS one of them
attempted to grab her by the throat
she struck him in the face with the
lamp. She continued to hammer him
with the glass handle of the lamp
until he beat retreat, and the two
other robbers ran away.
