Aslight and even frolicsome summer rea d

ton the new tale of terror printed in our
Havana dispatches this morning. IL he
VIII examine it carefully he will observe
that thousand or so country people were

friend, weyler. A Spanish column was
on its march past the place. Agonized
mothers fell at the feet of the commanding
officer, pleading that they might Je per
n.irted 10 go a little way into the open, TO
seek food for their starving babes. Now
tie Spanish general was humane man.
lie knew that weyler would not tolerate
the idea OF hunting foo d by people whom he
had dooued 10 death by hunger. So the
general settled the question and the pc
tition IN E. neat and appropriate manner.
lie ordered his troops to sail in and massa-
ere the whole outfit with their machetes.
In a few hours there was no more hunger
or pain in that camp of pacificos- AT last

were stIlled. The bloody corpses Were
left in piles to breed pestilence. The gen
eral and staff lit their cigarettes and
mounted; the trumpeter sounded the march;
the headquarters band struck up the Star
Spanrled Banner" and the column moved
on to fresh victories for the holy alliance
between Spain and America. BY and by,
the troops halted FOR supper, muchimproved
and amused by their pacificating exercise.
And vet we desire TO remark that. in real
hot summer weather, the verdure-clad
shore of Lake Chsmplain is about as pleas

Terrible Fate Of John Griffin in

Buffalo, ". Y, July 26.-John Griffin.
eighteen years of age, q laborer employed
at the Buffalo Cold Storage Company .
warehouse. was frozen TO death by am
monia Friday night. So low was the
temperature that the unfortunate mans
body was blistered and he was literally
suffocated Three other men were injured,
but not seriously.
Griffin was engaged in placing band
around the top of one of the coolers, and.
losing his balance, fell twenty feet, break
ing glass gauge in his fall. He made q
cry as he fell, and Herbert Gardner. q
boy who was employed on the same floor,
hurried to his aid
He had almost reached the body when he
was driven back by the fumes of the am
1ionia. He grabbed Griffin's leg and at
tempted to pull him out, but was unable to
do 20, and had to run to escape the fumes.
He hurried to the opening which led to
the engine room and alarmed David Clarke,
tie engineer, and John Claeber, the fire
I man. The latter las the first one to reach
the floor on which the injured man was
lying, and ne had to give up after his throat
wasbadl yblisteredfrom the inh alationo Of the
ammonia. He managed to crawlo out after
almost reaching Griffin.
Clarke, fearing that both of the men had
succumbed, hoisted ladder to the side
windows and, opened them to let the gas
out. He entered the building, and by keep
ing close 20 the floor he found the lever on
the condenser and shut off the pressure
When he reached Griffin he found min
lying on his back, his head and all of the
upper part of his body so badly frozen that
IL seemed to have been burned. Clarke
took him on his shoulder to the window and
down the ladder to the ground, where it
was found that life was not extinct, but he
died on the way to the hospital
An examination showed that both OF
his eyes had been burned out, and all or
the upper part OF the body had been ter
ribly eaten by the fumes The doctors ex-
pressed the belief that he became uncon-
scious within an instant after the fumes
struck him. Gardner, Clarke and Claeber
received injuries from inhaling the fumes

FRILLS AND FADS.

Among the most becoming vests and
yokes are those of piece lace in Cluny de-
signs.
The style Of trimming with black lace
ruffles over white ones is being revive ed for
sill gowns.
A cool-lJc king costume is i'm silver gray
mohair, with creamcOlored lace and gray
taffeta rihDon.
Roman stripes are the latest innovation
in cotton fabrics. They call for lace and
ribbon a, cessories.
Long ends of No. 60 satin ribbon and an
enaInpld buckle finish crush belts OF ribbon
satin, silk. and velvet.
The garniture on the Amazon hats in
vogue is very svere, consisting merely of
a few stiff quilts and u band OF velvt.
1t would be an impossibility to count the
number Of silver fasteners that have been
designed to keep together the refractory
skirt and belt.
A becoming picture hat is OF deep yellow
rough straw with yellow silk roses and
small black tips. The hat is faced with
yellow chiffonette.
A lovely, dainty evening frock is Of
gray dotted Swiss, with pale yellow lace
insertions and sash of light blue sura n
silk with ends to the edge of the skirt.

The Broken Toy.

A broken toy what memories cling
Around this half forgotten thing!
What baby laughter seems to rise,
Like old, delightful melodies!
What shouts of wCrldless, tuneful joy
At sight Of this poor, broken toy!
Oh, tiny feet that would not rest!
Oh, dear head pillowed on our breast,
What would we give to hold again
The form we lost mid tears and pain!
All, child. the empty colts ours,
But thine the sunshine and the flowers!
What could we give thee shouldst tho
come
To smile again upon thy home?
Such little pleasures as we know
In this our twilight life below,
Some fragments OF earth's paltry joys,
A handful Of its broken toys!
How calm thy lot, forever blest!
How exquisite thy happy rest!
How chaugeaIle, joyful and serene.
Compared with what thy lot had been
With us. whose fleeing. clouded joys
Are at their best but broken toys!

There is a pretty archipelago, in that

islands where every prospect pleases,

nothing but cannibals and a British flag.
Now, seriously, we propose 10 Japan a
scheme OF friendly, compensatory quid-

hauling down of that offensive gridiron,
the conversion of natives TO cold meat or

Is to shut up and 20 home. At present
