IL was decided that she could have some

one Of the most singular episodes I'm
tho lifo OF Camilla Jrso. occurred Ia 1872
whcu she lett New York city

tria with her entire concert
company She arranged I'm Mel
bourne to give twonty-thrce concerts in
four weeks and engaged large orche5-
ira. After weeks Of preparation and the
outlay Ct over 5000 the FIRST concert was
given. The total receipts were S9U Bul
nothing dauutcd. Madame IrsO proceed
cd To- give the concerts as advertised, but
the second was no better than the ifst
as regards receipts. She then decided
upCn singular remedy. The prices OF
times the original scale, and the arr roe
cratic portion # the public began TO at

so. and the series resulted In "a great Do
nancial success. the last concert showing
receipts of upward Of 81 ,Vl.

Prominent lawyers who have consider
cd the law say that II Is clearly uncon-

undertaken 10 assume judicial power. ia

under the Constitution the legislature
has legislative power alone. ana all judi

Gf,.na Military Burial.

HAVANA. Jan. l6-It develops more
and moro clearly every day that Antonio
Maceo. the lnsurCcnt leader. was led INTO
ambush when he was killed. ACCORDING
to statements made by prominent insul-
gents, who have been intrusted with the
task Of investigating the facts or nus
death. Macoo was permitted 20 pass the
military line across Plnar del Rio in pur-
suance OF the plan which resulted In the
murder Of the insurgent leader After
crossing the military line Maceo. with
q small escort. was making mis- way into
Havana province with the intention or
meeting the insurgent forces which nad
been ordered to concentrate at place
previously agreed upon when he ana
his followers were suddenly confronted
by tho Spanish force under Maj Cerljc-
da. Macco promptly ordered charge.
and led il In person. when volcy from
the Spanish advance guard. composed of
euerrillas. was fred at the insurgents.
and Maceo sank wounded and dying upon
his saddle
So far tho account agrees with that
given out by the Spanish authorities. But
The insurgents now insist that Maceo' s.
followers distinctly saw Dr. Iertucha.
Maceo's personal physician, among the
Spanish guerrilas. wh) apparently, had
arqbushed the insurgents. and they point
10 this and other facts us proof that Ma
GEO was betrayed by tho physician. IL
also seems true that the S0lniards sue
coeded later in obtaining possession ~
Maceo's body. in fastening it TO the tail
Of a horse. and in starting with II toward
the Spanish main body The insurgents.
however. rallied. charged again. obtained
possession of their leader remains, and
carried them to n place OF safety.
The body was afterward given mill
tary burial M "a spot which is known 10
but few OF tho most prominent of Maceo g
associates. This is tho reason that the
Spaniards ravc been unable 20 find the
body OF their dreaded eramy. and explains
why they have been unable 20 establish
tho fact Of bis death. beyond producing
the articles which were stolen from Dis
body at the place OF the ambuscadc.
