Heartfelt thanksgivings

Heartfelt thanksgiving
Oh! let It rise
Like the mist of morn
Toward the azure skies;
Let the heart be glad
And the song be gay,
AS we welcome the joys
OF Thanksgiving Day.
How sweet is home
With its altar fires!
The meeting Of sons
With their happy siresi
The fair young wives
And their little flocks,
In brand-neW coats
And Sunday frOcks.
Nie gather around
The old-tlme board,
The blessing is asked,
The tea Is poured,
And the children laugh
In their merry way,
When the turkey comes iT
On Thanksgiving Day.
But what's this glee
To that which comes
With the smoking pudding
So full of plums?
And the rosy fruit
Without stint or lack,
And, last Of all,
The nuts to crack?
What beautiful seasons
To him who rOams,
Are these meetings rare
In the land of homes,
When the young and old,
The grave and gay,
Lift up their hearts
On Thanksgiving Day!

EAST AFRICA's CRUELTIEs.
Gov. Wahis Denies the Stories But

Gov. Wahis Denies the Stories But
w. Hayes Says They Are True.
London, June 4.-The Brussels corre-
spondent of the Daily Chronicle says:
Gov. Wahis of the Congo Free State
will not return here. 1t Is reported that
he will be created baron in recognition
of his services TO Belgium in Africa.
In the course of an interview, Gov.
Wahis has given a positive denial to the
statement that in the campaign under
Baron Dhanis, the troops were provision
ed with human flesh. He spoke very
bitterly of the charges brought against
his administration by the missionaries,
and referred to Missionary Sjobloms as
an honest fanatic misled by untrust-
worthy natives STORIES
"He said that the native accusations
against this missionary, accusations of
melting to revolt, were so grave that had
he Cthe governor) taken them seriously.
he would have been obliged to arrest
Sjobloms."
w. Hayes of Eastbourne, writes in the
Daily Chronicle that he has just returned
from the heart of the Congo state and can
confirm all the statements that have been
made here as TO the atrocities committed
under the administration of Gov Wahis.
He asserts that the administration, in
stead of suppressing the barbarous custom
of severing the hands, actually fostered
1T, and adds: Gov. Wahis is not entitled
to deny this of his personal knowledge,
because he lived at Bona, hundreds of
miles from the scene of the cruelties."

DOWNFALL of CANovAs.
No One Yet Summoned by the Queen
to Form a New Cabinet.

Madrid, Jnue Sat a council of the
cabinet this evening, Senor Canovas del
Castillo, after explaining the various as
poets Of the situation at home and in the
colonies concluded by declaring that hav-
ing obtained the sanction of parliament
to bills for the financial needs of the next
financial year, he deemed that the time
had arrived to ask the crown either to
ratify the powers of the ministry or to
confide the government to other hands.
He said he had decided upon this course
because he could not bow to the imposi-
tions of the opposition, and because he felt
that matters had reached a stage where a
slight reconstruction OF the cabinet would
fail to meet the demands of the situation.
He added, however, that if the crown
still had confidence in him and in the con =.
servative party, he would not hesitate to
remain in Office and to endeavor TO cope
with the difficulties at home, and in the
colonies.
The queen regent formally accepted the
resignation Of the cabinet, and consulted
with the President of the
chamber but as yet she has
not summoned any political leader.
Probably she will not do so until she has
seen Gen. Martinez Campos, who will ar
rive here tomorrow morning.
Senor Canovas is much disappointed at
the response with which his advances in
the way of reform and financial plans
have been met in Cuba. He is also very
loathe to recall Capt. Gen. Weyler, al
though aware that Gen. Weyler's pres.
ence in the Island and his severe policy
obstruct the relations of Spain with the
United States and with the majority of
the Cubans.
Many of the Spanish newspapers pro-
nounce this the most serious national
crisis since the restoration of the mon
archy and certainly since the regency
commenced.
In view of the result 1t may have on the
prospects of the Spanish rule in Cuba and
the relations of Spain and the United
States to call Senior Sagasta to form a
ministry would be a virtual admission
that the Spanish colonial policy for the last
two years has been a total failure. This
would be such an extremely grave admis-
sion that 1t is possible an attempt will be
made to form an intermediate cabinet
under the Marquis of Pidal or Gen. Azcar-
raga, minister of war in the Canovas cab
met. But In the best informed circles this
is not regarded as feasible, and it is
thought the queen regent will be compelled
to summon Senior Sagasta.

TRILBY CASE IN FLORIDA.
James Armstrong the SvengaIi ard
Miss Darrell the Trilby.

Jacksonville, Fla, June S.--The most re-
markable case in the annals of crime in
Florida is that known as the Grace Dar-
rell case. 1t is strongly suggestive of a
real Svengali and Trilby, James Arm
strong, the reputed guardian of Miss Dar-
rell, being the Svengali. and that young
woman the Trilby.
The case started in Sumter county two
years ago, where the Armstrong family,
who now reside in Jacksonville then liv-
ed. Grace Darrell claimed TO have been
kidnapped, taken TO the woods, stripped of
part of her clothing and tied to a tree,
where she was found the next morning.
Four young men were charged with the
crime, were arrested and were convicted.
but new trial was granted.
The young men were afterwards arrest
ed and tried here in the United States
court, charged with sending lewd and OBJ
scene letters to Miss Darrell. Numerous
letters were submitted in evidence, and
the case was sensational in the extreme.
The prisoners were convicted, but again
the court set aside the decision.
Recently, Miss Darrell made a sworn
confession to Maj. st. Clair-Abrams. coun-
SCI for the defense, saying that her testi-
mony was false, and that the letters were
written by Armstrong and others for the
purpose of convlcting the young men.
When the fact that she had made this
confession became known, she was taken
to the newspaper offices by Armstrong, and
there denied ever having made it. To-
day she was brought into court, and there
again she denied having made the confess
sion, despite the fact that it was witness
ed by four prominent and reliable citizens.
Armstrong was present when these denals
were made
Tonight Miss Darrell escaped from the
Armstrong residence, and now she says
that the confessions were entirely true.
She says that Armstrong has a Svengali-
like influence over her, and that although
she wills to the contrary, she is powerless
to do otherwise than as he tells her to do.
She is at present in the care of Mai.
st. Clair Abrams, and viii be kept away
from the influence of Armstrong. Further
developments of a sensational nature are
promised. Armstrong is 60 years of age, a
Scotchman and was for many years chief
clerk for A. T. Stewart, in New York.
He came to Florida several years ago.
Miss Darrell has the appearance of a re-
fined young woman. She is % years old.

civil and Military Auth critics.
Miles City, Mont, June 3.-Sheriff Gibb
returned last night from the Cheyenne
agency. The Indian situation, he says,
is very grave, indeed. He reports 200 or
more Indians off the reservation and scat
tered in the hills. Their warwhoop can
be heard frequently, and the dancing con-
tinues. Old settlers look for trouble.
The sheriffs posse, 300 strong, under
command of Stock Inspector Smith and
Capt Brown, are stationed in small num-
bers in and about the settlements, near
the reservation, to protect the remaining
settlers and prevent the destroying of
property by the Indians.
Indian Agent Stouch would not deliver
the prisoner, Badger, up to the sheriff
when called upon to do so, saying he was
afraid or he would escort Badger off the
reservation Friday with troops and deliv-
er him to the authorities. The sheriff
placed Capt. Stouch under arrest, but left
him at liberty, until summoned by County
Attorney Porter. The sheriff also has a
warrant for Capt. Reid, who has charge
of the troops from Fort Custer, located at
the reservation.
1t Is not known among the Indians in
the hills that Badger is in the guard house
When this becomes known, and he is re-
moved from the reservation, it is feared
the Indians will make break to recover
him if possible. If this is done, there will
be great loss of life on both sides.
The sheriff brought in orders for a large
amount of ammunition and rifles and an
other posse of 100 or more will be formed
and accompany him back to the reserva-
ton, which he expects to reach Thursday
night or early Friday morning.
County Attorney T. j. Porter has re-
ceived orders from Gov. Smith that he
direct the sheriff to take a posse of all
the citizens that can be obtained to en-
force the service of warrants, both on
the Indian murderers and Indian Agent
Stouch and that the militia will be or
dered out if necessary, saying that the
law of Montana must be enforced with
caution and firmness.
