CONTEMPORARY OPINION.
SPANS HEAVY BURDEN.

According to a recent number of the
Revista Tecnica, Spain has in the
Philippines alone, including $4,000 ma
tive infantry, 36,76O troops. The force
in Porto Rico is supposed to be about
5000. while in Cuba, according to the
Army and Navy Gazette, of London,
there are, wholly exclusive of volun-
teers, 107 battalions of infantry, to-
gether with cavalry. artillery, engi-
neers, and other forces, in all about
100000 strong. In the Peninsula, ac-
cording to the same authority, there
are 64190 infantry, 1896 cavalry, H.
774 artillery, 5,294 engineers, 1859
civil guards, nearly as many gendar-
merle, and, in brief, nearly 129, 900 Off
GERS and men.
In round numbers this reckoning
gives more than 100000 men under
military pay, either in the field or at
home. The question arises, how long
can Spain stand such strain? In Cuba
there is a constant wearing down Of
her forces by fever as well as battle.
The question of more men and more
money will soon Yex Spain; and the
possibility of home troubles makes 1t
necessary to retain a strong force in
the Peninsula. Cuba has only to per-
slst, and the burden will be too heavy
for Spain to carry.-New York Sun.

AN APPLE BLOSSOM WEDDING.

One of the daintiest and most charm
ing weddings of the season took place
last evening at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Walter ID. Bush, No 404 South
Clayton street. It was a pink and white
wedding, with effective decorations of
apple blossoms, set of by Southern
smlax and palms.
The bride was Miss Caroline Tatnall
Bush, and the groom Christopher Long
streth Ward, one OF the rising and
most popular young members of the
New Castle bar. The bride was at
tended by six bridesmaids, who were
Miss Marie Morse, Miss Marguerite
Cause, Miss Alice Lea, Miss Rebecca
Smith, Miss Mary Campbell and Miss
Armytage Black. The groom was at
tended only by his best man, Franklin
7. Nevin, of Pittsburg, Pa.
The ceremony took place in the Ii
brary at o'clock, and was performed
by Rev. Thomas A. McCurdy, ID. D.,
pastor Of Central Presbyterian Church.
AS the bride entered the room, leaning
on the arm of her father, Mark Has
sler and his quartet of Philadelphia
musicians played Mendelssohn's we'd
ding march. During the reading of the
service Handefs Largo" was softly
rendered.
The bride, who is a tall, pretty bru-
nette. wore a lovely gown of white bro
caded satin. The color effect was car
ried out in the bridesmaids frocks,
which were charming affairs of white
liberty silk made over pink silk. Each
maid carried large, graceful spray of
apple blossoms.
The invitations were limited to the
relatives and intimate friends of the
bride and groom, of whom about 125
were present
After a wedding trip Mr.. and Mrs.
