trary to general expectations nothing is
given but the names of the owners and the
descriptions of the land The amount that

Attorney Curtis held that the figures should
not be publishe 1. as there can be no legal
assessment until after the assessors have
complied with the law and heard all the

have nothing to work for.

There will OF necessity, by the con

those who, holding certain views, will

this there is no more need antago-

really pitiful reading, sake up Sir
Walter SCOTS "Old Mortality" and
see how the Covenanters harrassed
by their oppressors, snarled and
snapped at the hands that would
have aided them, so that, at the last,
whatever advantage might have
been gained from armed resistance
to Clayerhouse and others, was alb
solutely disregarded and lost to them
forever. If you need further proof OF
the horrid stupidity OF squabblers
who, blind to common danger, in
sist on triumphs over one another,
read Josephus and his account ofthe
fall OF Jerusalem. You will concede
it TO be, in all likelihood one OF the
most frightful stories in human his
tory, where, in sight OF n danger that
threatened to engulf all in ruin, the
sects flew at each other in uneXam-
pied fury and slew their own people
until resistance to the foe outside the
walls was no long possible. The
abuses OF all human rights, the tor
rents OF human blood, the wrenching
asunder OF all human ties by those
who insist on agreement with them
selves makes dreary reading; but it
is one OF the chapters of the human
record and must be read if, in order
to appreciate the heights possible in
our nature, we must comprehend the
depths to which it can sink.

What absolute nonsense it is for
any one OF us to claim perfect know
ledge of any subject, or to announce
that we have at last discovered sub
iect that has only one side toit. And
mark you this the chief sinners in
intolerance are those who ultimately
are found to have the narrowest
conception OF a subject. These are
they who dwelling in grimy coal
mines, deny the existence OF sunshine
and trees; or who rafting in their
narrow cells OF thought like empty
milk cans in n wagon, by their noisy
protestings drive away those whom
quiet thought would reach. Their
view OF life and OF God is narrowed
down to the range of their own short
sightedness, and they live and die
content to be ignorant of the infinite
breadth OF an infinite Creator whose
works do justify him and whose vast
ness is only comprehended in tiny
fragments by the best OF us.

Percy Edwards cleared today for Ia
hiti, and on her goes the United Broth
erhood of the South Sea Islands. The
brig goes to Tahiti, and from that port
will sail wherever the fancy of those on
board dictates. The expedition was
brought about by the publication In a
local paper of story to the effect that
on St. Johns island In the South seas
were a number of dusky women who
were pining for husbands. All the men
had been killed in war and the women
were lonely. A company was organ
lied In this city to go to the relief of the
dusky damsels, and on board the Ed
wards are ninety-seven men who sigh
for the tropical cline and easy life In the
South seas. 1t has since developed that
the Adamless Eden story was myth,
but the company organized here deter
mined to go some place.

correspondent in Havana sends the fol-
lowing, via Tampa:
l am informed on the very highest
authority that Captain General Weyler
has forwarded his resignation to the
Spanish government at Madrid. The
caPtain-general, 1 am told, will leave
the island as soon as possible, probably
In about three weeks.
This decisive step General Weyler de.
termined to take, 1t is said, as soon as he
heard of the release of Julio SanguiIly.
The captaingene had frequently said
he would resign II the crown should in
terfere with his policy in regard to pris-
oners. and especially Americans, and he
was incensed beyond measure as being
ignored in the negotiation carried on by
the Spanish government in the case of
the notable captive, Sanguilly, who was
released on Friday.
1t is reported that General Romon
Blanco Y. Arenas, the marquis of Pena

saiG he was a professional toot-racer,

friends with money. Smith agreed
with Barnaman TO let the latter win the
race, and even signed articles of agree
ment to that effect. which were deposit

money the firemen could raise, ne being
sure of winning He also bet $500 of
the money deposited with him by
Smiths hackers. and when the race
came of this afternoon Smith ran away
from Barnaman and won the race with
such recklessness and disregard for the
agreement he had signed that Barna-
man and his hackers nearly dropped
dead. MeGregor could not pay back
