tions for protection against the tyranny of
Barrios, and thus the world was led to
misjudge the motives and intentions of
the man, and the real situation of the
Republics.
The last scene of the farce in Guatemala
City, like the first one, took place in this
theatre. The night before Barrios started
off on his last battle, to repel the army of
Salvador, there was grand ''funcion'' in
the Teatro Nacional. All the military
bands assembled at the Capital, a dozen
or more, were consolidated for the occa-
sion, and between the acts performed
march composed by local musician, ded-
lcated to General Barrios and the union of
Central America. A large screen of shee t
ing was deliberately painted with the in
cription:
All hail the union of the Republic!
Long live the Dictator an d Generadissimo.
j. Rufino Barrios!''
This was attached to heavy rollers, to
be dropped in front of the stage, instead
of the regular curtain, at the end of the
second act, for the purpose of creating
sensation, and sensation it did create
an unexpected and frightful one. As
the orchestra commenced to play the
new march, the curtain was lowered slow
ly, and the audience greeted it with ire
mendous applause, rising to their feet,
shouting and waving hats and handker-
chiefs. But through blunder of the
stage carpenter, the weights We're too
heavy for the cotton sheeting; the banner
orchestra wounding several of the must
clans, and as fate would have it, the rent
was directly through the name of Barrios.
The superstitious people were aghast at
this omen of disaster. Strong men shud-
dsred, women tainted, and Mrs Barrios
hastily left the theatre. A few days later
a small detachment of the Guatemala
army commanded by gallant young son
of Barrios, while on scouting expedi-
ton, was killed by an overwhelming force
of Salvadorians. When Barrios heard of
the disaster, he leaped upon his horse,
called upon his men to follow him, and
started to avenge the death of his son.
The Salvadorians, expecting persuit, lay
in ambush, and the Dictator was picked
off by sharp shooter as he rode at the
head of the column of cavalry, and died
instantly. His men found the body of
the son lying by the roadside, and carried
both back to the mourning capital.

No sportsman who is fond of fishing in
Maine can afford to 60 through the season
without that bulletin of information, the
Maine Sportsman, the May issue of which
is out. This number is the Anglers Edi-
ton occupying the same important relation
to the fishing season as did the hunters
edition issued in October last. Like that,
this contains a list OF guides, enlarged
and more complete than then published,
and another valuable feature is a list of
the waters of the State where fishing is
prohibited on other dates than the usual
close time, so that no sportsman need make
the mistake of starting for pond or its
tributaries and there find notices pro-
hibiting his sport. An article on Izaak
Walton by j. F. Sprague, some fine illus
trations of fish and fishing, and lovely
scenic views from the Maine woods, go to
make up an especially attractive number.

naval power in excess OF any yet
provided for our National uses has
led this Government to decline ter
ritorisl acquisitions, he Uuited
States have never deemed it needful
to their National life to maintain
impregnsble fortresses on the
worlds highways OF commerce.,
Secretary Bay ard, writing to Minister
Pendleton in Germany ia 1885, said:
"The policy of the United States
declared and pursued for more than
century discountenances and. in
practice forbids distant colonial ac-
quisitions." The same ground is
taken in President Cleveland's first
annual message: Maintaining, as
l do, the tenets of line OF pre-
cedents from Washington's day,
which prescribe entangling alliances
with foreign States, l do not favor
policy OF acquisition Of new and
distant territory or the incorpora.
tion OF remote interests with our
own"
We have carried this line OF cita-
tions far enough to drive The Sun
from it's position that "a distinction
between mainland aud insular pos
sessions was never made hy leading
American statesmen"
Specifically, the desire or purpose
to annex Hawaii has repeatedly been
disclaimed by our statesmen. Web
ster, President Tyler, Clayton, Fill
more, and Mr. Blaine himself, whose
near friend, John l.. Stevens, was
the head promoter OF this Hawaiian
job, have declared it to be our policy
to maintain Hawaii as an independ-
ent, neutral friendly State. "This,"
said Mr. Blaine in 1881, is the "whole
disposition OF the United States to.
ward Hawaii in its present condi-
ton"
The American people are not fool
ed about Hawaii. 1t is an impertin-
ence to attempt to convince them
that in taking these missionary usur-
pers, imported coolies, and native
lepers to our bosom we are merely
continuing an old and familiar poll

MADE HIS CHECK GOOD.

Throwing sprats to catch mackerel
is always a wise proceeding. We are
reminded of this by the happy eXpe-
rience of a Chicago advertising agent
who recently received from a custO-
mer a check for $50. Being suspi-
cious of the paper he lost no time in
presenting it at the bank, where he
learned that the depositor had only
$131 to his credit. Though this cOndi-
ton of things was not wholly salts
factory there was a. way out of it, and
the advertising man was quick to i'm
prove the opportunity. Drawing his
pocket book he deposited $40 to his
customers credit and again presented
the check, which was at once cashed.
Then the shrewd financier went back
to his office and Rugged himself. AS he
had lost only $40 instead of $40 his
self -admiration was eXcuSadDle.-

about 6 o'clock in which two of the

they were repulsed and chased about
three blocks down the track by the

had gathered. Some language that
would look quite out of place in print
was used as well as goodly supply
of stones. The row occurred over

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man Offers to Send His
Discovery Free
Claims To Be a Benefactor To
Weakened Mankind.

There is always more or less sus-
picion attached to anything that is Of
fered free but sometimes a man so
overfows with generosity that he can
not rest until his discovery is known
to the world, In order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has dis
covered. 1t is upon this pricipal that
resident Of Kalamazoo, Mich, de-
sires to send free to mankind a pre-
scription which will cure them Of any
form of nervous debility; relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertain
ty which such men are peculiarly liza
BILE to and restores the organs to nat
ural size and vigor. AS it costs moth
ing to try the experiment 1t would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack
men who never stopped to realize
what might be the final result, ought
to be deeply interested In a remedy
which will restore them to health,
strength and vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence of
untold misery. As the remedy In
question was the result OF many years
research as to what combination
would be peculiarly effective in restor-
ing to men the strength they need, It
would seem that all men suffering
with any form of nervous weakness
ought to write for such a remedy at
once. A request to n. 9. Olds. Box

or Insurgents Into The Town OF
Guines.
Havana, via Key West, March O.
On the 4th inst. about 8 o'clock p. M,
band of Cuban patriots made an ir-
ruption into the important town of
Guies, Havana province, and with
heavy discharges Of musketry, forced
the garrison TO retreat into their bar
racks and the forts surrounding the
town. After taking possession of the
same they Overran the town, setting
fire to three houses in Real street,
three in Vides street and nine in Ia
soon street, sacking many others in
General Duyo street. After accomp-
fishing their work they quietly left
the town at 3 a. m. The losses sus-
tanned by the Spaniards are as fol-
lows:
Military Commander INTRIGUE Thar
do, wounded; Lieut.. Pendas, killed; a
sergeant and a volunteer, wounded.
Among the residents one was found
macheted, another was found dead in
the burning ruins of a store, and an
othe was killed by bullet wound and
three were wounded. 1t is said that
the Cubans left three dead in the
streets. In order to appreciate the i'm
portance of the dead it is necessary
tOknow that Guines has a population
now of about 10000 souls, and the
garrison exceeds 1000.
Yesterday the parties of FREDERICK
Nunez and Emilio Loran, 200 men
strong, surprised 700 laborers of the
sugar estate near Mariel, Pinar Del Rio
province, in the act of cutting cane.
All of them were held as prisoners for
a couple of hours and finally released
after depriving them of all their cloth
ing.
At about a. m, on the I'd inst. a
party of rebels entered the town of
Las Canas. Pinar Del Rio province,
looting house owned by Antonio
Laret, burning at their departure
thirty-One huts. Many stores were al
so sacked. The military commander
with forty men of the garrison and a
section of volunteers repulsed the in
surgents, forcing them to abandon
the town. The rebels in their retreat
fired a few shots at the troops, but
no harm was done.

safeguards along the bank of such
creek, or river, as will prevent horses
