Luther and Melancthon were talk

poets of the church. They could see
no hope of deliverance. After awhile
Luther got up and said to Melanc.

forty-sixth psalm: God is our refuge
and strength in every time of trou-

A SNUG SURPLUS
In the Hands of the Republican National
Committee.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-For the first
time in nearly twenty years the Re-
publican party closed the national
campaign with all its debts paid and
surplus besides of $1,000 in its treas
ury. In 1892 there was short
age of S67, 900, and nearly
5000 of that was carried by
Treasurer Cornelius N. Bliss until
this year, when it was paid by the sue
cessful bidder for the convention, st.
Louis. The surplus this year will
easily provide for the maintenance of
permanent headquarters for the ma
tional and congressional commit
tees, and the latter are expecting
that the work of the former will be
turned over to them to be looked
out for until the time for another pres
idential campaign cornes around. The
congressional committee has recog-
nized the desirability for several years
of maintaining its organization from
one year to another, but lack of
funds and the trouble in getting
congressman to contribute at any
time except Immediately prior to
an election have prevented their doing
so. No steps will be taken toward Sc
curing other headquarters than those
at the Normandie until after the meet
ing of the national executive commit
tee, which will decide the location of
the national headquarters.
Vice-Chairman Apsley is quite con-
fident the location will be in Wash

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 23.-Mrs. Matilda
Little, widow, was invited by George
Dennis, her steady" to accompany
him to the theater Saturday night, and
she consented. They boarded a street
car that went the other way,
but Mrs. Little didn't notice
it, and they finally alighted in
the vicinity of O'Fallon park.
Dennis suggested walk through the
park. as it was too late to get back
down town in time for the theater.
They had proceeded but a little way
when they were confronted by two
men, who grappled with Mrs. Little,
threw her to the ground, gagged her
and proceeded to search her for
money and valuables, which she
usually carried with her, Mr.. Dem
mis- standing idly by meanwhile.
A motorman heard her scream before
the gag was placed in her mouth, and
directed the attention of two mounted
policemen TO the fact. Their approach
put the robbers to fight, but Mrs.
Little sprang a surprise on Dennis by
requesting his arrest for Turing her
into the trap, and he was locked up.

A CANINE AvENoER.
A Faithful Dog That Killed the Murderer
of His Master.

A Faithful Dog ThaC kttIed the murdersR
of His Master.
A brilliant illustration of the fidelity
of his race was the dog at the court Of
Charles v. of France, who avenged his
masters murder. There were two
young men of high social position az
court who hated one another cordially,
because they were the rivals for the
hand of the same fair lady. The fa-
vored lover, whom we will call tho
marquis, suddenly disappeared. A,
good deal of anxiety was felt at court,
for the missing man was very general
ly liked. Now the marquis had mag
ni8cent stag-hound, who had always
manifested great devotion to his
master. General attention was
drawn to this animal by his
extraordinary conduct after the dis
appearance. He no sooner saw the
courtier who had been his masters
rival than he flew at his throat, and
would have torn him in pieces but for
the interference of bystanders. The
dog was dragged away with great
difficulty, and kept chained for some
time. He was so gentle with his keep
ers that they concluded, after few
days, to let him loose. The dog, find
ing himself at liberty, immediately
Aought out the courtier, and would
have attacked him as on the former oc-
cusion, but that gentleman saw him
coming, and rushing to his room, shut
himself in.
This persistent enmity on the dogs
part aroused suspician against the RE
val of the marquis. 1t was limited that
the latter had been the victim of foul
play. The august countenance frown-
ed; the court ladies whispered to-
gether and drew haughtily aside as the
suspected man passed by. The gentle
men OF the royal household looked
coldly upon him; he found himself
alone at the hunt, unpledged, and
avoided at the feast. This state OF
things could not be endured, so he
petitioned the king that tie matter
might he put to trial by combat boz
tween the stag-hound and himself
Charles granted the request, and the
combat took place. The gentleman
was armed, and the dog had only such
weapons as nature had given kim.
Nevertheless, the animal defeated his
antagonist, and would have killed him.
but the king ordered his men TO inter-
fere. AS the courtier lay dying from
the wounds inflicted by the noble but
ferocious dog, he was overtaken by
remorse, and confessed that he was IN
truth the murderer of his rivaL-SG
Louis Republic.

New YORK, Nov. 23.-There was

does not wish to be quoted, said that it
was good betting that four of the
places would be filed as follows:
Mark Hanna, secretary of the treas

Cornelius y. Bliss, of New York, sec
retary of the navy.
Henry c. Payne, of Wisconsin, secre-
tary of the interior.

Secretary Carlisle was recently asked
by a friend if he had seen the reports

NEw YoRK, Nov. IA Herald 81

NEW YORK, Nov. GA Herald spe-
cial from Washington says:
The state department is meeting
with ill-success in its efforts to induce
Spain TO either pay or promise to pay
the claims of American citizens who
have suffered losses and personal out.
RACES as q result of the Cuban re-
bellion.
In the case of damages to property
and other personal losses there has
been no disposition on the part of the
authorities to press S pain for an i'm
mediate settlement. But cases of per-
sonal violence, false imprisonment,
ETC., are regarded in a different light,
and the practice has been to instruct
our minister at Madrid to present all
such claims and to press them for i'm
mediate action.
This was notably so in the case of
DIR. Delgado, who was SO outragsously
treated by the Spanish soldiers. In
this case the authorities agreed to
separate the claim for destruction of
property from the indemnity de-
manded for the personal injuries
infected, and allow the former to
rest until a claims commission
could Be appointed. Bat the per-
sonal indemnity claim has been
insisted upon, thus far without sue
cess. There has not even been q prom
ise to pay. All the satisfaction the
state department has received is that
the Madrid authorities have the mat
ter under consideration.
Other personal indemnity claims
have not met with any better recep-
tion. Indeed, some of them have been
promptly denied.
Spain Would Fight q Interfered With.
NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-A Boston spe-
cial says:
Spain would fight any nation that
would interfere with her possessions
in the Philippine islands or in Cuba.
1t makes no difference what nation it
might be-" said Senior Manuel Garcia
Cruz, Spanish consul TO Boston, in an
interview Sunday. Continuing, he
said:
True, we have comparatively few
soldiers; only between $4,000 and TO-
600 in Spain, because the most OF our
troops, to the number of 200, 900, are
now engaged in su bduing Cuba. But
it would be a naval war, and it would
be fought upon the high seas. 1t must
not be thought that because our navy
has not shut the flibusters off from
Cuba we have no naval power"
