A ewIsh colony at Cyprus.
Al remarkable petition has been address,
ed to the queen OF England by a number
of Jews who are at present following a
useful career as artisans In the city of
Jerusalem. The signatures beg that her
Majesty will, through the Secretary of
State for the Colonies, permit the estab-
lishment of a Jewish agricultural settle
ment on the Island of Cyprus. There are
two distinct morals to be dawn from this
incident. In the first instance, it is becom-
ing clear in many places a longing for a
return to farming and culture is seizins
hold Of the Jews. Artisans and workers in
cities do not easily reconcile themselves to
the ssrener, duller life of the fields. In
deed. the stream Is the other way-from
the farm to the town, But there is another
striking fact about the petition OF Jerusa-
lem Jews to our Queen. The action gives
point to the doubt whether Palestine is in
truth the bsst feld for further ~colonizing
effort. Cyprus, under British government,
evidently has more charm for some Jews
already settled In Palestine han Pales-
tine under the Sultan. y Jewish Chronicle.

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. e-The su-

cision which settled the question Of the
unoonstirutionaMty OF the general fee
bill OF 1895. The decision given by the
lower courts which upheld the law. was
reversed and the bin. insofar as it per-

The cases which were decided were
those of Justice Dwyer Of Santa CIarn

against Auditor Parker of Santa Clara
county to recover bills, for services. for
amounts In excess OF the figures allowed

Colonel Cirujeda. the slayer of Ma
Geo. is the battalion commander He
is really very energetic officer and
keeps his infantry and cavalry on the
march constantly. The ease with which
the Cubans seem to have avoided his
combinations" proves that they have
improved in what was always their
strongest point-ability to keep and ge.
away. Three brothers-Jose, Cornelo
and Pablo Govin-36, 30 and 2S years re-
spectively, owned some cattle near Pun
ia Brava. Obtaining permission from
the military authorities, they drove the
beeves to Havana to sell them. They
met q party of Colonel Cirujeda-the
same ones that were reported 70 have
taken articles from Maceo's body. A
Spanish soldier said to the brothers:
You have two brothers in the bush
You are bad people-mala gente," where
upon the soldiers took them to the road
of Rio Hondo and stabbed them to
death.
This butchery occurred within four
days of naother instance. On December
IA, single insurgent galloped by the
house of Herrera Gonzales, three miles
north of Punta. Bravo. Following close
after him came the guerrllas of La Siza
and some of the Arroyo Arena band.
The son, Enginion Herrera heard the
noise, opened the door, looked out and
dropped dead with a Spanish bullet
through his heart All the people here
abouts know about it. Fourteen-year-
old Isidore Herrera Corrora was also
murdered in cold blood. The boy was
hauling the family water barrel, using a
yoke of oxen. A mile off there was some
firing Then the guerrillas of Pizaro

hand, that the government has been
compelled to resume paying out treas
ury notes at all the subtreasuries, and
it is likely its supply of that form of
money will still further decrease.
An interesting feature of the situa-
ton, though, is that while the treasury
IS paying out millions of dollars of
notes that are redeemable again by the
government in gold. the treasury is re-
ceiving only silver (certifcates) in paw
ment o fcustome duties.
In other words, while discharging
its own obligations in gold, the gov
ernment is compelled to receive. and
