The consummate taste which charac.

this occasion. Their elegant residence
was artistically decorated with flowers
was most daintily served.
The bride-elect becoming arrayed in
white silk, received her friends informal
ly, but most charmingly. Rarely have
two hours been as pleasantly spent as
by those fortunate enough to be present.
The bridal gifts were numerous and
elegant and in harmony with the prevail

To few young people taking this deci-

THE CUBAN RESOLUTION
Regarded by it's Opponents as Virtually

Washington, Jan. 6.-The fact that
the Cuban question was not considered
at to-day's meeting of the Senate commit

as significant by the opponents Of the
Cemeron resolution. They contend that
if it had been the purpose of the commit

consideration in the Senate, it would
have been taken up at tO-day's meeting of
the committee with the view OF deyising

To the Editor:-The Legislature of our
State meets ON a very unfortunate day,
On the 9th the superior planets Saturn
and Uranus are in conjunction, and the
moon is eyilly aspecting both, from which
we may infer that there will be but lit
tie good resulting from this session, on
the contrary, a general parrot and mon
key time will ensue, and the people will
have cause for thoughtfulness, when af-
ter disgusting the whole State with their
antics they shall finally adjourn. Jan
uary 18th, 21st and February 18th and
18th are days which are particularly
likely to see a rumpus among the law
makers.
When they meet on the 18th to elect q
Senator, the influences are not propitious,
yet there is one good Lunar aspect to the
planet Mars and it would not surprise
me If leader is developed who may be
described q martial man The planet
Mars at the time will be in the sign
Gemini and this position gives q person
of rather tall stature, brown hair, gray
eyes, ruddy or sanguine complexion,
strong body, big bones, long arms In
disposition he is rash, free and generous,
independent, ambitious and aspiring, and
by force Of will may win. If such a man
appears on the scene, he win likely be
master of, or contract the situation and
either be elected Senator or elect whom
he may desire.

Kansas since the admission Of the State

fishing THAT he was prosecuted for what
he might have done and not what ne
had done.
Mr.. Call spoke of the reports that the
powers of Europe would coerce the Unit
ed States. What effect he said, would
such a concert of nations have, when the
sympathy of mankind and the sentiment
Of the Christian world was with the
struggling patriots Of Cuba. 1t would be
a futile intervention, even if attempted,
for no statesman Of Europe could sue
cessfully appeal to the masses of his
people to strike at those engaged In
struggle for independence and liberty.
II the United States remained passive
while such outrages as those on Gown
and Sanguilly proceeded, there could be
no prosperity for this country, and no re-
spect for it, declared Mr.. Call. 1t was
spectacle which belittled the United
States i'm the eyes OF the world.
The Senator spoke bitterly against the
delay in the Senate the idle assertions
that trade and commerce would be
ieopardized by action, and the concerted
movement emanating from some central
source, to have chambers Of commerce
and boards Of trade to urge delay
of the United States was being used to
protect and continue that condition.
The Senator closed with an appeal that
the American flag he made the symbol
of rower and of protection to American
citizens 1borughout the world.
At the close Of the speech the Senate
agreed to Mr. Calls resolution requesting
| the Secretary of State for all correspond
ence relating to the case Of Julio San
gully The other resolution, demanding
Sangully's immediate release, was re-
| ferred to the committee on Foreign Re
lations.
THE HOUSE.
Washington, Jan. 6.-The Loud bill
| to amend the law relating to second class
| mail matter was passed by the House
| to-day after two hours of debate by a
| vote of Ia to los. The opposition to
| the bill made a strong fight against 1t.
| The statements made on the floor as to
| its effect in certain particulars were very
| conflicting. The most important pro-
| vision Of the bill denies the serial publi-
cations admission to the mail at one cent
per pound rates 1t is as follows:
THAT nothing herein contained shall
be SO construed as to admit 10 the second
class rate publications purporting to be
| issued periodically and to subscribers
but which are merely books, or reprints
| OF books, whether they be issued complete
or in parts. whether they be bound a
unbound, whether they be sold by sub
! scription or otherwise, or whether they
purport to be premiums or supplements
| or parts Of regular newspapers or peri
| odicals.'
| The bin also denies to newspapers the
sample copy privilege and the privi
/ lege Of newspaper dealers of returning
| nnsold publications at the second class
rate
The only other important change in
the present law provides that publishers
| whose publications which are admitted
| as second class matter shall be required
before dpositing such mail matter in the
postofflce, to separate the same into
| United States mail sacks, or bundles, by
| States, cities, towns, and counties as the
| Postmaster General shall direct. The
debate on the measure to-day was devoid
OF feature.

The case presented against Mr.. Someil-

was the agent in Havana OF the rebel
Junta, and that he was in league with the
Key West Cuban bureau and with the

spiracy against the Spanish dominion in
Cuba. The prosecutor will offer as evil

message advised Someilllan OF the sailing
OF an expedition, and that it was intended
for transmission to Aguirre.
Soneillan was arrested first under the
command of Martinez Campos, as Cap
tain-General, and was then released for
lack OF proof. Among the legal docu-
ments which will be presented in the case
are some from United States Consul
General Lee, in which he says that he
considers the proof regarding the above
message to be feeble, and that he finds no
