The Late Spanish Loan

Spain must have a genuine belief in her
ability to thrash out the Cuban red lion
at no distant date, for her finances are
hardly in condition to maintain a strug-
gle Of many years further duration. 1t
is true that the recent national loan of
40o,OOO,0OO pesetas (say Ella, ,30O,0 ,000) was
raised al once, and, indeed, subscribed
to nearly twice over, but how was it
effected? Madrid took UP more than
half, but the balance over the provinces
was raised by the persuasion of the
priests, who, with cries of patriotism,
defense of home, and defense of the
church, almost squeezed the money out
OF the people. 1 have been assured, over
and even again, in Andalusia, that many
subscribed to the loan as "a matter OF
FORM" and resold their allotments at
once from sheer necessity.
"A further loan is talked of, but If Spain
could only see what are her best inter

aid, even at higher rate, rather thar

colored sands taken from half a dozen
different bags, and into which he would

then he would color the sketch, some

S. P. Simpson, a retired banker of

sanitarium yesterday afternoon from
apoplexy. He suffered an attack Satur-
day while at his rooms in the Winthrop,
1861 South Spring street. One of his in

He was formerly engaged in business in
Cincinnati, O., but in 1880 opened the

The "Heathcn Chince"

Mr.. Bret Harte has revived the
"Heathen Chinee'' in a new poem in

Truthful James, who says:

ing soon TO par
And All Sin stood there a-listenin' like a
simple guileless child.
That hears the Angels singin'-so dreamy
like he smiled.
Brown of Calaveras, who had come
with Bryanite eloquence how the ratio
of silver to gold should be as sixteen to
one, and drew out of his pocket heap
of silver and laid it on the counter.
THE Heather in his blindness bows down
to wood and stone"
Said Brown, " but this poor heathen won't
bow 10 gold alone;
So speak. my poor Mongolian and show
us your idee.
OF what we call Free Silver and what is
meant by Free"

This action of All Sin was adjudged
extreme, and Abner Dean proposed as
punishment that All Sin should strike
the bimetallic balance on Mr.. Browns
new bike" All Sin endeavors to adjust
his equilibrium, but his pigtail is caught
in the wheel, and he comes to grief.
'My poor Mongolan friend" said Dean,
'it's plain that in your case
Your center point of gravity don't fall
within your base.
Wen tie the silver in bag and hang 1t
from your queue,
And then-by scientific law-you'll keep
your balance true"
And here I would remark how vain are all
deceitful tricks
The boomerang we throw comes back to
give us it's last licks-
And that same weight on All Sins queue
set him up straight and plumb.
And he scooted past us down the grade and
left us cold and dumb!
But not again We saw his face-nor Brown

And I marvel in my simple mind howe'er
these things can be-
But do not reproduce the speech Of Brown
who saw him go,

the dramatic profession as q life work

is strongly assured at the outset 1t Is
better never to adopt the stage as a

encouragement There Is hard work.
