Guests of Honor Last
Night.

A Number Of the Contests Will Close To-
night-Ths Booths and Beauties.
Notes Of the Night.

Captain Newman and the uniformed
knights were the most conspicuous
guests at the Catholic fair last night.
1t was secret order night, and one of
the best of the week.
Tbs people who wished to end the
holiday in pleasant manner went to
the fair. and took their friends. The
ladies reported specially good busi-
ness at the booths and in the supper
room.
One of the most enjoyable features
OF the fair will be that of this after
noon, which will be devoted to the
children The little ones will take
part in number of novel games, and
the "Blue Beard" and other panto-
mines will be amusing and interest
ing. Ice cream will be served to the
children at cents per plate.

night, and will be drawing card. A
number of the best vocalists and in
strumentalists in the city will take
part. The program includes many
popular favorites, aud large audience
is sure to gather for the enjoyment of
the splendid music.
Several of the contests will be closed
tonight, and the lucky ones an
nOunced. The guessing contest for
the amount Of total receipts of the fair

to Turtle river, and it was very evil
dent that the sailor boys hadn't gone
anywhere on their ship, it was mat
ter of considerable speculation as to
what had become of them.
The two divisions and the Marine
band returned to the city about 9p.
M, after fatiguing row of eighteen
miles from Daver Hall,in the Passaic's
small boats. The trouble is quickly
told.
The Passaic wouldn't move. Her
engines were out of order, and when
Chief Engineer Dan Devereaux tried
to work them he found that they
wouldn't turn the propeller further
than half-revolutiOn. 1t was useless
to waste the time of the companies
trying to get motion out of such re-
fractory englnes,so Lieutenants Aiken
and Wright decided to make the trip
to Dover Hall in the small boats.
1t was a hard row, but the boys
made 1t at last. At Dover Hall, thanks
to Lieutenant Wright, everything was
all right. A sumptuous barbecue was
enjoyed, oyster roast was one of the
side issues, and the grinding was
another. Then came the target shoot,
in which Lieutenant Wright and Sea-
man Hawkins made the best scores.
The trip back was very hard one.
Some of the members had left the plan
tation, and walked through the coun-
try to Sterling, where they took the
train for Brunswick. But the others
had to pull eighteen miles back to the
city.
Despite the disadvantages of the
day, however, the Reserves say that
the visit to Lieutenant Wright's plan
tation was delightful one, and com
pensated for all the hard work at the
0ars

How the Reserves Spent the Day-Dinner at

Thanksgiving Day of 1897 dawned
cool and cloudy, and drizzling rain
fell at intervals throughout the day.
The sky was overcast and there was a
suggestion of storm In the breeze, that
kept many people indoors.
Business was practically suspended
in the afternoon. The banks, the post
office, the custom house, the city and
county Offices were closed. There
were many drying and bicycle par
ties In the afternoon, although the
skies threatened downpour.
The observances of the day by the

About Gladstone.

London, Nov. 25.-Mr. Gladstone,
with his wife and daughter, left today
for Cannes, in the Riviera. 1t is said
the "Grand Old Mans" weight is be-
ginning to press heavily upon him and
that his ANXIOUS friends are depend
ing much on this journey to restore
his old time vigor. The statesman
has, however, been so often reported
falling and then resumed his former
activity that his admirers think it will
be tie same this time.

REBEL SHOTS FIRED
In CITY OF HAVANA.
Bold Raid Made By Insurgents From
the Casa Blanca on the
Above City.
FIRED AT THE GOVERNORS PALACE.
Several Vslleys Dischargsd-The Raid Gre
ated Great Excitement and Con-
siderable Alarm.

New York, Nov, 25.-On Sunday
morning, for the first time in the his
tory of the Cuban war, rebel bullets
sought the palace in Havana, says a
dispatch to the Herald from Havana.
The shots came from Casa Blanca, six
hundred yards across the entrance to
the harbor, and while nobody was
hurt, the palace, with its electric
lights, was shining mark, and must
have been hit. The Spanish authori-
ties attempt to make light of the af-
fair, but at the same time the reporter
for La Luoha who wrote up aud at
tempted to publish the facts in the
case was arrested, and is still in COM
municado.
The attack on Casa Blanca was made
by Brigadier General Rafael de Car
denas and fifty rebels. They entered
the town shortly before midnight, on
horseback, and at the end of four
hours each man led out of town an ex-
ira horse which he had appropriated,
laden with clothing, provisions, silver
plate and considerable money. Be-
fore they left they fired two volIeys
across the narrow harbor entrance at
the palace, and coolly retired to
friends house, inside the Spanish
lines, and took supper previously
ordered. All this was under the guns
of Cabanas and Moro.
1t is learned from an inside source
that the object of the rebels was to eff
feet the release of General Ruis Rivera
and to hang a citizen named Fumiero,
known as a spy. They failed in the
first only because of some misooncep.
tion regarding the appointed time on
tne part or c0nfederates within the
prison, with whom arrangements had
been made to admit the raiders into
the fortress. Fumiero managed to
escape across the barbor. The author
tiles made every effort to suppress the
details of the raid, though the official
report admitted that six rebels enter
ed the town.
The rebels approached and fired up
on Mariana last night. There was
great excitement. The volunteers
were called out, and, along with the
troops, returned the rebel fire. The
rebels did not succeed in entering the
town. The lines have been strength
ened all about Havana.

THE RIFLEMEN'S DAY.
They Went to st. Simon, and Did Some
Very Fine Target Shooting.

They Went to st. Simon, and Did Some
Very Fine Target Shooting.
The Rifiemen distinguished them
selves on their picnic to st. Simon
yesterday by doing some very fine tar
get shooting, in fact, the best the COM
pany has ever done.
Adjutant r. L. Wylly, of Savannah,
was with the Rihemen on their trip,
and acted as official inspector of rifle
practice. He said last night that the
scores made by some of the boys were
very creditable, and showed the most
marked improvement that he had ever
noted in any company.
The best shooting was done by
"Geech" Miller. one of the most pop
ular members of the company. He
made three consecutive bullseyes, and
received an ovation.
The company left early IN the morn
ing on the steamer Egmont, and land
ed st Ocean pier. The threatening
weather made the crowd rather small.
Dinner was obtained from Ed. Elliot,
the storekeeper of the pier, who served
the boys a fine spread.
Lieutenant Stephens at 200, 800 and
500 yards made 73 points out of pos
sibIe 100, and Private Miller at 300
yards made three consecutive BULBS
eyes, while Corporal Wood and Pri-
vate Cecil NJ. Dart each scored 10 out
Of possible 25 at 200 yards. Lieu
tenant Wyely also made a splendid
score of 81 out of possible 80 points;
90 at 200 and II at 300 yards. Corporal
Fain won the medal on a good score.
With = Colts army revolver, Lieu
tenants Wylly and Stephens tied on
10 out of q possible 25 points aU so
yards and Captain Dart scored IA.
One Of the best shots of the day was
made.s byi Lieutenant Wylly, who,
while in the sound, broke the neck of
= seagull at an estimated distance of
600 yards. Lieutenant Stephens also
killed duck, while swimming,at fully
the same distance.
The boys had sufficient time to kill
several squirrels and rabbits, which
were served at the dinner hour in true
French style by Mr.. Ed ElIiott's fam
GUS chef. Everybody had a good time
and are under obligations to Mr.
Elliott for many acts of kindness
shown them.

School Question.

London, Nov. 25.-London's trien-
nial school board election is being held
today. The principal issue is of a
religious tendency. An extreme sec
tion of the church party, or "moder-
ates," headed by Evelyn Cecil, has
been pushing for more religious in
struction in the schools. The other
section, headed by Mr.. Diggie, a
former chairman OF the board. is salts
fed to leave the system as 1t is. The
compact progressive party. made up of
radicals and secularists, hope to profit
by the dissensiOns In the ranks of the
churchmen and be able to eliminate
religious instruction entirely.

AFRAID OF THE TRUTH.
Spain Wants to Stop the Speeches Of Hannis
Taylor.


Taylor.
New York, Nov. 25.-According to
the Worlds Washington correspon-
dent, Senor De LONE, the Spanish
minister, has protested to the apostle
lie delegate, Mgr. Martinelli, against
the officials of the Catholic university
allowing Hannis Taylor, former min
ister to Spain, to lecture in the uni
versity. The complaint is merely
verbal and sent through secretary.
Senor De Lone, it is said, contends
that papal university should not in
vite to its halls an enemy of Spain,
who comes to speak against its gov
ernment and people. Mgr. Marthnelli,
it is said, has no jurisdiction in the
case, and will take no steps regarding
it. Mr., Taylor will deliver his lecture
today. His theme is the Constitution
of the United States in its relation to
foreign affairs. Incidentally he will
deal with the Cuban question.

Meeting at Six-Mile Crossing.
Will Hickman, young white man
who lives near the SIx-mile crossing,
is In a religious trance, as a result of
the camp meeting now being con duct
ed at that place.
Hickman's case is a puzzling one. (.
He does not seem to bO dead, but his
body is rigid, and he appears to be un-
conscious. In fact, 1T seems to be case
of suspended animation.
Hickman, the informants of TIE
TIMES say, has been in this condition
for forty-eight hours. Medical aid
has been employed, but could bring
about no relief. 1t is reported that
the young man went into this trance
during the progress of the meeting,
which has been characterized by un-
usual religious fervor, manifested by
such things as the "holy laugh" the
shooting fever" etc.

The opening of the public
schools in the fall is an interesting
event in which almost every fam
lily Is concerned. Practically the
entire population of the commu-
nifty between the ages of six and
sixteen is turned over to the school
teachers for them to train not only
IN the common branches of learn
ing. but also in obedience, morals
and all the discipline that makes
youth wholesome Mothers sigh
with relief to be rid of the con-
slant care of their children, and
send the little ones to the public
schools 20 be made or marred, as
the case may be. Good, bad or
Indifferent, the bright and the
stupid. all mingle together in daily
association in the public schools.
That is a fact worthy of the close
attention of parents who have any
desire to supplement- the work of
the teachers by home training.
