C.b.. situation.

Wednesday the House of Rep
resentatives, after one Of the most
exciting and memorable days in it's
history. BY vote of 322 to 10.
adopted . resolution which nine
tenths Of its members believe
makes war with Spain inevitable.
This resolution is n majority re-
port of the committee on foreign
affairs, and directs the president
to intervene at once in Cuba to
restore peace aud secure to the
people OF this island "a stable
and independent government of
OF their own" and authorizes him
to use the army and navy to exc
cute the PURPOSE of the resolutions.
1t is probable that these resolu-
tons will be adopted by the senate
rs compromise. The president,
30 it is said, threatens 10 veto any
measure that will insure war. He
has got his "back up" and pro-
poses to show the country that he
is not weak man but has "sand
in his craw."
General Alger has intimated to
Gen. Cook, of this state, that he
expected soon to call on Colorado
to contribute her quota of the
National guard to go to the front.
AS soon as war is declared the
department will issue, upon the
call OF the president, orders for
the enlistment OF at least l5C, 900
troops.
The plans for the JOINT land and
naval attack on Havana have been
practically decided on.
The cabinet council has decided
to reopen the Spanish parliament
on Wednesday next instead OF
April %.
Whether we have war or no. ev-
erything indicates that Saguache
county is to have marked revi-
vnl in mining matters. The daily
strikes in the Sangre de Christie
range will give that section an i'm.
mense boom as soon as the Grant
litigation is decided. And in the
other camps of the county work
has been going steadily Oh during
the winter. Old Bonanza will
this summer take on some of its
old-,ime life and preparation for
work on several properties ON n
large scale is being made. At IRIS,
BiedelI, Perry, Sky City, Finley

created good deal of interest in
Costilla county, us Mr.. Macz and

men. The allegation that Macz
promised TO feed n young man all

Salazars store, is very improbable,

Kept the Geesc Away.

In suburb of Philadelphia live two
families, Hodkins and Podkins, and
they do not dwell In amity. The Hod-
kins keep geese, and the Podkins do
not. The Hodhins' geese have acquired
habit Of straying from their home
and visiting the Podkins homestead,
and these invasions have been bitter
" resented. Remonstranees failed of
effect, and the Podkins organized a
board of strategy, consisting of Mrs.
Podkins, her son and daughter. Be
ing lSind-hearted folks, they would not
poison the geese. so some other scheme
must be devised. The next day the
Hodlins geese appeared and soon ran
home squawklng. The Hodkins ran
to greet them and saw an amazing
sight From each fowls bill depended
bit of thread, one end anchored to a
grain of corn In the birds interior
while to the outer end hung card
bearing this inscription: please
keep your old geese at home" They
stay home now.--Golden Days.

fully removing his watch, pocketbook

spectators for safe keeping, Mr..
Handstrong put his head on the
ground, braced himself firmly with
his hands, and after several spasmodic
and Intellectual kicks succeeded In get
ting his feet and legs in an upright
position. For Is or 90 seconds he stood
thus, with his head and hands on the
grass and his feet in the air, and to
show how easy 1t was he puffed vig-
orously at his cigar, which he still
held In his mouth. Hi, Jimmy!" yelled
one of the bad boys of the neighbor-
hood, who had been watching oil these
proceedings from little distance
with breathless interest. "Hi, jim

Terrible Things That Happened x
Several Persons Because a
Horse Liked Grass.

1t would not have happened II it'had
not rained the night before or If the
butchers boy had hitched the horse
when he left the delivery wagon
standing on Madison avenue while he
went in the apartment-house at the
corner. The horse wanted some of the
grass that grew inside the curb and
after he had taken mouthful or two,
horselike, he decided that the grass
behind him was better. So he backed
up until the wagon covered all the
clean crossing and then stood still.
One at a time five men came along
from the opposite side of the street.
Two of them waded through the pudr
dies behind the wagon and three made
detour by going around by the other
side of the street Then man and a
woman came along. Both were nicely
dressed, and the woman wore nice
skirt. They were hurrying to the de-
pot and had not time to 60 around by
way OF the other crossing, SO the man
waded to where he could lead the
horse out Of the way. AS soon as the

QUEER KINDS OF FOOD.

Japan is heavy shipper of out
landish foods to the new world It
has practical monopoly Of the meets
which are used in making birds nest
soup, which, by the way, when pre-
pared by an American chef. is the most
delicious fish Of it's class in the world.
1t also catches and dries armies Of
devil fish, which are as popular in the
east as dried Goldfish In the west. In
fact, the two sea foods are very much
alike In flavor and differ chiefly IN
their texture, the flesh Of the devil
fish being hard. compact end more
like muscle than that OF the familiar
cod.
Tree eemushrooms and sea mushrooms
are two other famous Japanese edi-
Nbles that come to us across the Pacific.
They resemble mushrooms IN their
contour and structure, but In moth
Ing else. The tree mushrooms have b
