its concessions, has finally become tired
Of the incessant and unreasonable de-
mands of this country in behalf of I'LL
busters arrested in Cuba, not only for
violating the laws of that island. but for
irving to subvert its government, and
has informed the Washington authorl-
ties that it will make no indemnity Tor
the arrest and imprisonment Of two
such men, and that "despite its best
wishes to please this government, 1t
will not be possible for it to discuss any
further the present claim, which it con
siders to be definitely closed"

berg.
Past Grand Regent, John J. jamie
son.
Grand Secretary, James B. Blanks.
Grand Treasurer, A. B. Bolts.
Grand Chaplain, Rev. F. T. McFad-
den.
Grand Orator, Charles II. Lnmsden.
Grand Guide, Charles G. Berry.
Grand Warden, James Mecrady.
Grand Sentry, R. W. Arnold.
Messrs. ]. H. Ingram, F. N. Bilisoly
and H. Hodges we're elected grand
trustees.
The last named will serve for three
years.
Messrs. James B. Blanks and Walter
F. Irvine were retained as supreme rep
resentatives.
The committees will be appointed
later.
Immediately after the decision the
new officers were installed.
The Grand Council will meet in
Richmond city again April Goth, OF
next year.
The Grand Regent. in his annual re-
port, among other interesting facts,
stated the following:
1t is with great regret I have to
note that some of the councils have not
increased their membership-not hav-
ing sent in a single application during
1896. Some councils have done good
work, showing q healthy activity, and.
with q few exceptions, all the councils
have done more or less work.
Our order has taken the command
ing position as the best fraternal or
%ganization in this country, and offers
advantages equalled by few and ex-
celled by none
Three new councils have been insti-
tuted since the meeting of the last
Grand Council-Three Rivers Council,
located at GAINESVILLE, with fifteen
members; George Mason Council, To-
Gated at Alexandria, with twenty-five
members, and Westville Council, To-
Gated at Matthews Courthouse.
The grand secretary aas' n mart
the follor, oIates, III paiC'
'ne IN his annual report:
During the year seventy-one of our
members have died, among the number
our former grand secretary, Brother
William Lovenstein, who held the po-
siiion for a period of fifteen years.
The total number of deaths to Deem.
Der 81, 1896, was $50. Total amount
paid w. and o. B. Fund by the $50
brothers, S137,716 80. Total amount
paid to the beneficiaries of the $50
brothers, 81, CPS, S92.S5
1t is indeed gratifying to be able to
report that our Grand Treasurer has in
his hands a sum sufficient to pay all
the expenses OF the present session and
leave a small balance for the new year.
The salaries of all the officers have
been paid in full to March l, 1897, and
all running accounts against the Grand
Council have been paid in full to date.
Reports were also presented by the
| Grand Treasurer, the Supreme Repre-.
sentatives, and the Medical Examiner.

Threatened Trouble Avertcd.

ARDMoRE, L. T., April 22.-In the
town of Davis, twenty miles north of
here, on Saturday night last, Charles
Mccormick was murdered and robbed
by q negro named Frank Brown. On
the Monday followinga band of twenty
white men, masked and armed, visited
the houses of all the negroes in town
and warned them to leave the place
within twenty-four hours. The negroes
appealed to U. S. Judge Kilgore, who
summoned the grand jury. The judges
action seems to have prevented the
carrying out of the threats Of the
whites.

LATE intelligence from Cuba is to
the effect that a rowing band of Cuban
negro and scalawag insurgents recently
succeeded in capturing some Spanish
guerrillas and burnt them at the stake.
But there is nothing strange in this, as
most of the insurgents are half savages,
and would soon be wholly so, if they
were to succeed. But, all the same,
Senator Morgan calls them patriots, and
says their independence must be recog.

Attemnted Recicide.

ROME, April 22.-At 2:30 o'clock
this afternoon while King Humbert
was on his way to the races q MAI
named Pietro Acciarito, an iron worker
out of employment, attempted TO stab
the king with q dagger. The nan was
seized before he could carry out his
purpose and the King proceeded to the
Campanelle race course seemingly In
moved. On arriving at the race course
the King was greatly cheered. Ac-
ciarito appears to be a political fanatic.
He says he has no a%ccomplices. King
Humbert treated the matter lightly
and remarked cit is only one of the
little incidents of my trade"

The PRovERBIAL hard task OF get
ting blood out of 8 turnip would be
as nothing to the republicans, inasmuch
as they profess to derive great satisfac-
ton from an idea that the democrats in
Congress- are divided as to the line of
policy they shall pursue. That division
is imperceptible to those who search for
it diligently. If the republicans in
Congress were as united as the demo-
Gratis in that body are, they would be
much better satisfied with their condi-
ton than they are now.

JULIAN ZARRAGA, one of the Cuban
chiefs who have recently surrendered
with their commands because they think
the cause of the insurgents utterly lost,
now saws he is convinced "that the in
dependence of Cuba would mean chaos
and final catastrophe for the island, un-
der complete negro domination" That
such would be the case has been we'll
known not only to all the intelligent
and uuprejudiced people of Cuba from
the first, and it is we'll for that island
that the fact is at last recognized by
the insurgent leaders themselves.

Deafness cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
tho diseased portion Of the ear. There is
only one way TO cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
By an infamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inlsmed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can DO taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrb, which is nothing but an
inlamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness caused by catarrh) that can.
not be cured by Halls Catsrrh Cure. Send

they prove no exception to the rule.
