THE CHATTING DISH.

Oh, ye bachelors, a-wooing maidens fair
and fortunes maid.
After dance and dim Irritation and the
proper promenade,
If her heart you fain would capture and
secure your dearest wish,
Just display your lordly knowledge of the
mystic chatting dish.
Gently hint that you're a gourmet of a
palate hard to suit,
And disparage old Lucullus and some
other chaps to boot,
Then prepare dainty rarebit with an air
of unconcern,
And there may be millions in tiff you've
done it to q turn.
Love hath naught of sweet persuasion
that can beat the art Of dining,
And the maiden will surrender to your
epicure designing,
And I'll initiate motto, when you've
caught this gentle fish,
Quite an up-to-date escutcheon-"Heav-

lily be completed in after years without
impairing the plan Of the house. In a
general way, however, the cellar must
remain as originally constructed, and
for this reason its main features must
be above reproach. 1t must be light
and dry, thoroughly ventilated, and OF
sufficient height. The ceiling should
never be less than seven feet, and nine
is far better. A damp cellar is nul
sance, as well as great source Of dis
ease, and every precaution should be
taken to guard against this fault. Brick
is porous in it's nature, but If It must be
used, the walls should be coated with
tar on the outside, with stone walls
cement could be mixed with the NOR
tar in order that moisture may not soak

The floor should be carefully coated
with concrete and cemented, and a tile

CUBAN SITUATION EXPLAINED.
President Mckinley and Judge Day
Listen to am Unofficial Report.

Washington, May 1i-President McKin-
ley devoted two hours yesterday to an
unofficial report on the Cuban situation
by Edwin T. Atkyns of Boston, who has
extensive sugar plantations in Cuba and
who has just returned from the island.
Atkyns is a warm personal friend of Sec
rotary Long. who today accompanied him
to the White house. The president sent
for Judge Day. the assistant secretary of
state, and the distinguished trio for two
hours listened to Atkyns' exposition of
the Cuban situation, as indicated by the
military operations and with relation TO
the American interests on the Island.
During the conference all visitors were
excluded. many senators and representa-
tives being denied admission.
1t Is not known what Atkyns said to
the president but there Is reason to be-
lieve his representations favored the in
surgents. Atkyns. during the early part
OF the war. was inclined to take pro-
Spanish side of the controversy, but it
Is asserted that he is now convinced the
interests of the island demand the vic
tory of the insurgents.
The president is gathering all the in
formation obtainable on the Cuban Ques-
ton. and in light of this and the report
OF Calhoun. now In Havana. will decide
on q course of action.

TO SUPPORT CUBAN RgLLIeeRANcY
Senator's From the North and South
ON the Question.

Washington, May 17.-An enthusiastic
audience of men and women, many of
them well known in Washington, pack
ed Columbia theater yesterday afteroon
at a monster mass meeting held in behalf
of the Cuban insurgents. The theater was
appropriately decorated. Seated on the
platform and participating in the exer-
cises were Senators Gallinger and Allen,
ex-senator Butler of South Carolina, Rev.
Hugh Johnson, pastor of the Metropoli-
tan Methodist church. Rev. WILDER Innis
and many others identified with the in
terests of the insurgents. General Will
liam Henry Brown, president of the Gu
ban league, called the meeting to order
and introduced Senator Gallinger as pre-
siding officer. The latter made brief add
dress, and read number of letters and
kilograms of regret, among them being
those from Senators Frye and Burrows
and Commander Clarkson OF the Grand
Army of the Republic.
Ex-senator Butler of South Carolina
read q series of resolutions which had
been prepared, and these were unanimous
ly adopted. They earnestly protested
against the barbarous and inhuman
methods" of Spain in conducting war in
Cuba, declaring that this government
should recognize the insurgents as bellig-
erents and that Cuba had demonstrated
that 1t was her manifest destiny that like
Mexico, she should be free and independ-
ent without the payment to Spain of any
indemnity.
In the course of his remarks Senator AL
len humorously declared there was no di-
vision in the populist ranks on the ques-
ton of Cuban liberty. In this whole mat
ter he thought there had been too much
sacrifice to the spirit of commercialism,
and it was time this government had q
little more humanity and a little more
Americansm.
Senator Chandler sent a letter of SYM
pathy and hope for the relief and indie
pendence of Cuba.

as the result of accident. There should
order that there may be draft through
the cellar. In cottages and detached
houses, there should be windows on all
sides. a door opening directly into the
outer air is an excellent feature. There
should be no dark, inaccessible cor
ners, for these will surely breed dis
ease. When the heating apparatus is
in the cellar, special arrangements be-
come necessary; if possible, the fur
mace should be shut off by itself, in or
der to prevent the spreading of dust
and ashes. 1t is little less than sui
cidal to follow the practice sometimes
adopted of taking the cold air supply
for the furnace directly from the cellar
itself. The cold air box, where it pass
es through this room, should be as
nearly alright as 1t is possible to
make it. The accompanying design
has cellar built and laid in accord
ance with the ideas expressed in this
article. The ceiling is eight feet in
height, the walls are of brick, twelve
inches thick, with two windows on
each side; it is divided into four COM
partments, by an eight inch brick wall
with u hall in center, opening onto
steps leading to yard. The furnace
room can thus be shut off, keeping all

RELIEF FOR AMERICANS
SUDDEN AND VIOLENT OUTBREAK
OF CUBAN SENTIMENT.
The President Is Deeply Interested
in Collecting Facts Before
Taking Action.

Washington, May 14--There has been a
sudden and violent outbreak of Cuban
sentiment at the capitol, and the DRIFT
of opinion has been strongly toward
speedy and radical action by both con-
gress and the executive committee, but
later there was somewhat of a reaction
upon it's becoming known that the presl-
dent while keenly alive to the SITUATION
and anxious to learn everything possible
that could guide his conduct OF our Gu
ban and Spanish relations. felt that tur-
Their information was necessary and LOT
the immediate present the question was
not one of recognition of the belligerency
or Independence of the Cuban insurgents,
but of relief for the American citizens
destitute and helpless in the domain OF
the queen of the Antilles.
The senate foreign relations commit
tee, 1t should be stated, wh4e agreeing
with the necessity for relief OF the sufer-
ing Americans, is favorable to more rad
ical measures, and number OF Its mem
bers are earnestly DESTROYS of instant ac-
ton by the executive in aid of the insur-
gents. but have not succeeded In convert
ing the senate to their views, that pres
emit action Is imperative. The event OF
Importance has been the report to their
colleagues of a subcommittee of the Tor
eign relations committee, which exam
statement, though not given to the pub
lie. was so far disclosed in character as
to give rise to a good deal of excited
comment among senators and members.
The report, based on facts presented by
United States consuls in Cuba, 1t Is said
brings out In strong relief the destitu-
ton which exists not only among Cubans,
but among the Americans and pacincos
now In the island, who were driven from
their farms and into the towns by Wey-
ler's orders, and thereby prevented from
supporting themselves. For several days
past the subject matter of this report
has been under discussion quietly among
O few of the friends of Cuba in congress,
and they lost no opportunity of Impress
ing upon the president their convictions
that 1t Is his duty as chief executive to
delay no longer in taking active steps to
terminate the present condition of AFFAIRS
In Cuba.
These representations, however, have
not been sufficient to induce hasty ac-
ton. The president Is moving steadily
and with all the speed that safety and
sound Judgment warrant in the collection
of facts touching the conditions that ex-
list upon the island today. To this end
Mr.. Calhoun is now in Cuba, officially,
on another mission, but also charged with
the observation of the conditions that
prevail When he has reported to the
president and the latter has gathered
what he regards as a sufficient store oil
information, based on facts that can not
be questioned, he will be ready either to
take himself, or to suggest to congress,
such action as these facts warrant
Meanwhile he has under consideration
the best means of afrording relief to Am
orleans suffering as a result of the condi-
ton of the Island.
