Arrested.

fIICSICu'
4 WASHINGTON. Feb. 8.-Consul-Gen
eral Lee telegraphed the state depart
ment from HaYana:
"Sylvester Scovel, a World CORES
pondent, was arrested at Tunas Santa
Clara province"
NEW YORK, Feb. S.-Sylvester
ScoYel is the only New York CORES
pondent who has been for any length
of time with the Cuban army in the
field. He has had considerable sue
cess in eluding the vigilance of the
Spanish troops and getting his dis
patches out of Cuba. He is the son
of Rev. DIR. Scovel, president of
Wooster university. He is well edu-
Gated, and an allround athlete.
Sylvester Scovel, who, it is stated,
has been arrested by the Spanish au-
thorities, was former resident of
Cleveland and went to Cuba about
year and half ago. He was on Ma
eeo's staff, and was intrusted by that
otficer to carry important dispatches
10 Gomez. He has also acted as
correspondent of several newspapers
in the United States. Two or three
times he boldly left the Cuban army
and entered Havana, and finally
caused suspicion to be directed against
him by the Spaniards. Some months
ago, it is alleged, General Weyler Of
fered $4,000 reware for the capture of
Scovel.
In Prisons.
HAVANA, Feb. S.-Senor Eduardo
Arail, editor of Ell Pueblo, published
at Puerto Principe, in the province Of
the same name, and correspondent of
La Discussion, who was charged with
being guilty of evolving newspaper
articles inimical to the government OF
Spain, and who has been confined in
prison in this city, will be embarked
tomorrow for the penal colony Of
Chafarlnas.

African Blood brotherhood.

The method of making blood brother
hood among the Gala and Somali has
its peculiarities. It is described by Will
liam Astor Chanler in Through Jun
gle and Desert:''
Lokomagul, on behalf of his people,
and I, on behalf of my own, each seized
in our right hands a round stone. Upon
the stones we literally expectorated.
Each then passed his stone to his fol-
lowing, who did likewise. We then ex-
changed stones, and each, holding the
stone in his right hand, with his left
dug small hole in the soil, meanwhile
uttering words Of supposed magic inn
port In these holes we finally placed
the stones and covered them with sand.
We then grasped hands and assured
each other that we were the best friends
possible.

THE GOLDEN THROAT.
Bell-Iike Tones Not Always a Gift Of Ma
ture. but May Be Acquired.

Bell-like Tones Not Always q Gift Of Ma
ture. but May Be Acquired.
The power of the highest interpreta-
tion of music in song is vouchsafed to
but few favored mortals and is not to be
acquired by any amount of endeavor, if
the true golden throat" with finely
adjusted chordB vooales, be lacking. A
voice Of sweet and mellow quality in
speaking, however, is not always gra-
eious gift of nature, but is possible at
tainment to persons of the most ordinary
musical capacity. A prima donna spends
scarcely more time praeticing her scales
than an ambitious actress devotes to the
cultivation of ringing, bell-like into
nation to her sentences, for public speak
ers and people of the theatrical profess
sion understand the value of vibrant
tones, of the thrilling, solemn, proud,
pathetic voice, :, whose echoes linger
long in the memory of the inthralled
listener.
Among we'll bred people low voices
are the rule-low. but not always music
al, tendency to falsetto marking any
effort beyond ordinary conversation,
which is simply an evidence of the lack
of proper training, or of a failure to
practice those primary principles of elo-
cution that are a part Of the briefest
common school education.
Lessons under a teacher are not an
absolute necessity to the woman who
would secure the grace of clear, sweet
accents. Deep breathing and chest ex-
pansion are the first steps toward the
desired end, and systematic course of
throat strengthening, combined with
enough discernment to decide between
nasal twang and pure tone, is about all
that is needed to achieve fair degree
of success.
An excellent method of strengthening
the throat is gargling with cold salt
water in the morning, bathing it at the
same time, first with very hot and then
with very cold water It thus gets a
slight shock and is braced up and per-
manently benefited. New York Jour-

CURIOUS RELIGIONS.

Some Sects the Members Of Which,

Our congress is prohibited by the con-
stitution from making laws respecting
religious views and theories. This being
the case, fanatics of all kinds have tax
On the opportunity to PROFOUND their
views and make an effort to spread their
doctrines. Within the present century
not less than half dozen deluded NOR
tails residing within the limits of the
United States have claimed to be Christ
returned to earth, and the queer thing
in connection with the ministry of such
fanatics is the fact that &hey can per-
suade persons who are supposed to have
fair amount Of brains to believe that
they are all they claim to be.
Since 1880 five different sects have
been founded in the United States the
members of which claimed the ability
Of either themselves or their founder to

last deluded being to found a sect on
the theory that be himself. at least, was
immortal was David Patterson, who was
known to his followers as ''the eye Of
Jehovah. = The Patterson sect were
known as "the children of Zion. % Their
headquarters were mainly at Grand
Rapids, Mich, although there were up
ward of a dozen branch organizations in
the different states of the Union. Pat
terson claimed that he would never die,
and the great tenet of faith with the
children of Zion was belief in the claims
which their leader made. In 1883 this
self styled ''eye of Jehovah" began to
grow dim--in other words, to waste
away with an incurable disease. Finally
he went to France, where he died, just
as all other mortals have done or will
do. This cured the delusion of the Mich
iganders at Grand Rapids, who soon
awoke to the fact that their leader had
either been a crazy fanatic or a bias
phemer. Sects founded on claims Of i'm
mortality are not at all dangerous, as
it is only question of time when the
delusion will be effectually dispelled. =

The coming orange crop of California
is estimated at 1875 carloads. Last
years crop was Z 900 carloads.
It is not always good policy to drop a
product because the price is low, for the
probability is that farmers enough will
do so to shorten the supply and run the
price we'll up another year.

The Dominion of Canada came into
existence on July /, 1867. The province
of Canada was divided into upper and
lower Canada, which divisions are
known now as Ontario and Quebec re-
spectively. 1t was subsequently aug
mented by the province of Manitoba
and the Northwest Territories in 1870,
by British Columbia in 1871. and Prince
Edward island in 1878, and now in

Extracts From the Pelxinr Gazette.


Imperial orders, when printed in the
Peking Gazette, are peremptory;; there
is no ambiguity about them. An article
in Longman S Magazine presents certain
extracts from the Peking Gazette, and
one shows how rife is superstition in
China:
The governor K reports number OF
incompetents; the prefect A. is an opium
sot and too fond of actors; the magis.
trate B. is fellow of low and merce.
nary spirit. Let each be reduced one
grade. The project G. is no fool, but he
is getting old and feeble. Let him retire
on his present rank. The magistrate D.
is simply an idiot. Let him take charge
of the local education department in
stead. The viceroy of Hukongss reports
the descent to the earth from the clouds
of green lizard and the consequent
sudden stoppage of the floods in nine
districts. We are infinitely touched by
this gracious evidence of the gods in
tervention. The academy has been or
dered to compose suitable aphorism
for engraving on gorgeous tablet The
yiceroy will proceed in full uniform,
followed by the whole official body, to
hang this tablet in the Moth S Eyebrows
hall in order to prove to the local deity
that we are not indisposed to requite
his services. When the eclipse of the
moon takes place tomorrow, let the
proper authorities setup the usual howls
and save the moon in due legal form.
