Baron Max Won Puttkamer, was leg
ally subject to them he laughed them
to scorn. His wife had begun divorce
proceedings against him, and the GUS
tody OF their only child, a boy, hao
been awarded to the mother. The nus
band, however, refused to give up the
child, and finally the court, adJudging
the young officer to be in contempt
sentenced him to four weeks coniine-
ment, the sentence to be carried out
by the colonel commanding the hus-
bands regiment. But the colonel re-
fused to carry it out, and, with the
aid of his brother officers, the young
husband still defies the courts, secret
ing the child and enjoying his liberty.
Now the court has offered 1000 marks
reward to the person who will tell the
present whereabouts of the child, so as
to enable the court to sieze it and hand
it to the mother.

side they promise eternal bliss; to
those who ignore their appeals ever
lasting torture The Mullah's voice Is
not raised in vain. He soon has fran
tic army following the green flag, will
ing TO go anywhere and do anything
their leader pleases.
When a Mullah dies the place of his
death becomes a sacred shrine at which
miracles are worked. There is not a
village throughout the whole Pathan
country which has not it's holy spot to
which the sick, the halt and the blind
resort for relief. In this connection a
curious story is told Of one Of the sec
tions of Bonervals.
1t had long been source of grief to
the Inhabitants of the village that no
holy man had ever been good enough
to die among them. The consequent
| absence of a Misunderstanding shrine
had degraded them in the eyes of their
neighbours who looked on them as a set
of WretcheS so abandoned that no saint
would end his days in their midst. The
men Of the village determined to put an
end to this degrading suspicion in a
characteristic Oriental method. There
was living in distant town O. Mullah
with the highest reputation for holi-
ness. A deputation from the benighted
village waited on this Mullah and inn
plored him to shed the light of his
| countenance on them for few days.
The priest was SO flattered at this tes-
timony to his piety that he gladly con-
scented. He was entertained on his ar
rival to a considerable feast. When
the banquet had ended the chief rose
and solemnly informed their guest of
the sad condition Of the villagers
through no holy man ever having died
in their midst, adding that they intend
ed to end so unfortunate state of
| things by killing their visitor. AS his
soul would at once pass to Paradise,
and as the scene of his death would be-
come a miracle-working shrine, they
did not consider he had anything to
complain of-St. James Gazette.

THEY DON'T FILL RIGHT.

The air is full of footballs and foot
ball talk. Some of the talk is wise and
some of it is otherwise. Wise seems to
be the talk of Harry Beecher, who says
that the great difficulty with most play
ers is that they do not know how to fall
Instead of going down with the legs
and arms close to the body, in such a
position that no portion of the body
can be strained by the mass sure to be
on top, they go down all sprawled out
and very easily get broken bone.
Sure enough. A cat or a drunken
man can fall more scientifically than a
football player. More attention should
be paid in the football schools to the
art of falling. He who can fall most
gracefully and securely on the football
field, or on the field of life's great game,
is the wisest and the safest player.
Learn how to fall, and beware of the
pride that goeth before a fall. Live
near the ground, and then you will not
have far to fall.

I,II II LOTT ROOM.

Low stock is rising, and there are
some very significant straws indicating
that the breeze Of public favor is blow
ing toward him. 1t is believed that the
unusual registration means that those
who do not usually take the trouble to
vote are going to vote this year, and
vote for Low. The Low campaign is
being carried on vigorously and shrewd-
ly. General Arson G. McCook is full
of hope. He says he never before, in
all his experience in politics, saw so
successful and winning a canvass as
Low is now making. The general ex-
presses a confident belief that Mr.. Low
will get so per cent. of the usual Re-
publican vote in New York county. and
at least 60 per cent. of the usual Re-
publican vote in Kings county. when
you add to this he says, "the indorse-
ment of the German organizations in
these two counties and the hundreds of
votes Mr.. Low is manifestly winning
nightly by his personal canvass, you
can find no reason to doubt his sue
cess" Mr. Charles Stewart Smith, ex-
president of the Chamber of Commerce,
talks in the same cheerful way. "A
large number of enrolled Republicans
are firm supporters of the Citizens
Union candidate" he says. Brooklyn
will undoubtedly give the largest ma
jority for Low ever given in that city,
All the indications, in Mr.. Smiths opin-
ion, point toward Lows election.
Meanwhile the Tammany shouters
say they have only Tracy to defeat, and
the Tracy shouters say they have only
Van Wyck to overcome.

ANEW view or THE VAR IN CUBA.

What Crittenden Marriott, a CORE
spondent of the Chicago Record, tells
in his Arena article about the war in
Cuba is interesting, and supports some
been made. He was not permitted, he
tells U.S. to accompany the Spanish
troops, but followed, preceded or en-
circled their line of march, keeping a
close watch on all their movements.
IT did not" he adds, attempt to reach
the insurgent armies, but through a
series of circumstances was in close
and constant communication with them
during the last two months of my
stay" The Campaign" referred to
was made during Mr.. Marriott's stay
and consisted, according to his descrip-
ton, of a futile promenade with $4,000
men through the Province Of Santa
Clara, at the conclusion of which it was
declared ''pacif1ed." Meanwhile GEN
eral Gomez had crossed the Jucaro-
Moron trocha and attacked Arroyo
Blanco without result. 1t is the gen.
eral character of the operations of the
Spanish troops, as well as of the rebels,
that from a military point of view they
are without result. 1.-THE thrilling
detail in certain newspapers" says Mr..
Marriott, simply do not take place.
The Spanish forces number, he says
26o 900 and the rebels from 1900 to
&C. 900, but the policy of the latter is not
to fight, and the former are thus unable
to put their superiority in numbers to
use. Unable to find anybody to fight,
the Spaniards are for the most part
employed to garrison the towns and
hold forts and trochas, safeguarding
certain districts as much as possible
from the incursions of bands of rebels.
AS to the methods of the rebels,
| Mr.. Marriott says: '@They follow the
amazing, if effective, policy of hoping
| to win their freedom without fighting
| for it; permit their friends to be butch
| cred without an effort in their defense;
their chief aggressive tactics involve
| the blowing up of railway trains with
dynamite and the forming of ambushes
in which half a dozen Spaniards are
killed, following by a precipitate flight
| through fear of being brought to close

is often striking. Take the hat shown
here. 1t was gray velvet shirred in
the brim and puffed in the crown,
which had soft baggy top and was
encircled with band of white velvet
ribbon. From the left side four white
ostrich plumes started from q pearl
buckle fastening.
The little bonnet is to be smaller than
ever; indeed, the bonnet itself will serve
merely as the foundation for elaborate
trimming. Aigrettes are made of all
sorts of things except feathers, for
feather aigrettes are really out of fash
ion. Wings are of jeweled lace, ever
so much daintier than the real wings
possibly could be, but humming birds
poised are a deplorable feature of
many imported hats Two or three
humming birds, poised and futtering
on wire, are not too many for some
little hornets, but one is too many in

Feathers Newly Picturesque.

Feather boas still linger around wo-
mems necks, but it is said that boas
just like them will be used on great big
picture hats This means that picture
hats are being made bigger than ever,
and that they are therefore more than
ever out of the average woman's reach.
But they are pretty, and the black pic

feathers and a sweep and dip-don't

deliberately set out to destroy the
country, the rebels burning the sugar
cane and tobacco fields and the Span
iards destroying everything else" For
every insurgent killed in fight two
Spaniards are killed and five die of
disease. The Spanish soldiers are de-
scrlbed as lads too young to fight-dull,
slow and susceptible to disease. The
Spanish officers, on the other hand, are
described as "the handsomest race of
men I have ever seen. Not tall, but
we'll set up, of good figure, with intelli-
sence in every feature; kindly, eour-
teous and polite in civil life" In war
they are said to be cowardly, cruel,
corrupt and mendacious. A Havana
jest charges General Weyler with hay
ing made half-million out of the war.
The inefIiciency of the military opera
tons is ascrbed to official incapacity
and corruption. Troops are wasted in
holding defensive positions, from which
the garrisons never sally forth to at
tack.
The white Cubans are said to take no
interest in the war; only the negroes
engaging in the rebellion. 1.-THE Cuban
peasantry," it is said, "are all either
negroes or Of pure Spanish descent, en-
feebled by generations of life in a soft,
easy tropical climate. The whites alb
hor all strife. One turns
in relief to the negroes, who, at least,
will fight for their lives" Some 100000
of the peasantry-the so-called concen-
tradoes'-have been summoned into the
towns of the four western provinces to
prevent their industry from furnishing
supplies of food to the rebels. They
suffer great privations there, the men
without work or money, watching their
wives and children starve, and yet I'M
willing to take up arms, although they
know that within rihe-shot of their
huts they will find brothers in arms
ready to welcome them. 1t is not that
they fear to fight, but they feel no i'm
pulse to do it."
The war is not popular, it would
appear, with the country people, ex-
cepting the recently freed negroes, AS
the towns are all held by the Spaniards
and their people are known to be gen.
the Spanish regime, it is interesting to
learn the source from which the Cuban
riott says: 1.-THE truth is, the war was
not started by Cubans, but by foreign
ers-Central and South Americans and
naturaliZed citizens of the United
| States. The former, soldiers of fortune
who had fought in every revolution
from Mexico to Patagonia, scented the
rich plumber that must fall to their
ment Of Cuba; the latter, learning what
| freedom was, yearned to free their
country from the yoke Of Spain. The
| home people Of Cuba, bovine, indolent,
unimaginative, took no part in the up
rising, take no interest in its progress
and will care little if it falls. Between
the rebels and the Spanish they are
ground to powder"
| Mr.. Marriott thinks that If Spain can
keep UP the present army in Cuba for
ten years she may win.
