Undoubtedly those in charge of the
operations about Santiago are animated
with strong desire to win If possible a
bloodless victory-and it is q desire which
all the people will heartily second. If by
waiting q few days Santiago can be taken
without bloodshed, or with less bloodshed
than would probably follow an attempt
to carry 1t by storm, every body will be
in favor of waiting. There can possibly
be no loss to US in short delay, quite
the opposite. The Spaniards can get no
more reinforcements and no more PRO
visions, while our army is getting both.
Every day, therefore, we become stronger
and the Spaniards weaker Of course a
siege might be SO protracted that we
should lose more men from disease than
we should be likely to have killed in an
assault, but the Spaniards in Santiago
are in such wretched plight that thew
cannot hold out long.

A few days ago the Secretary of War re-
fused to order the removal of the mines
at the entrance of New York harbor at
the request of the marine interests OF that
city. 1t seemed senseless decision, and
it is gratifying to see that he has been
overruled or changed his mind, and that
not only the mines in New York harbor
are to come up, but all of them along the
coast. To keep mines down now to pro.
tect us against Spanish vessels il absurd.
Spain has but two fighting vessels left,
the Pelayo and the Carlos V, and Ad-
miral Watson's squadron can be trusted
to take care of them if he can catch them
outside harbor. But whether he catches
them or not there. is not the slightest dam
ger that they will ever make their appear
ance on our coast.

MACHIAS KLONDIKE.

John III. Hadley, Jr.. did not find a
$40 gold piece while spreading dirt which
was removed from the grounds owned
by George W. Flynn on Main street, as
was reported Thursday, but he found a
copper cent of the date of 1880, which
may be more valuable if it proves to be
a rare one. This old coin is not the first
one found by Mr.. Hadley in plying his
business of removing buildings and ma
king excavations. He has Spanish sill
yer coin the size of a quarter of dollar
which he found under the corner stone of
the old O'Brien house which stood on
Elm street The date is l724. He has
another Spanish coin OF silver the size of
an English ninepenoe, found while re-
date 1740. He also has cent of the dsIn
179S, and half cent dated 1906. -Maohias

A GRACIOUS TRIBUTE.
An Incident at Concert That Completely

An Incident at a Concert That Completely
T0 Captivated the Audience.
So much is said about the i'll feeling and
Jealousy of musicians that 1t is a pleasure
to record an instance of the opposite sort.
Two or throe years ago a concert was CIV
en- in one of our large cities for the assist
ance of some charity. The programme
was long, and repeated encores had drawn
it out to a wearisome length when col
ored woman came forward to sing. She
sang well-not better nor worse than her
predecessor-and the management, think
ing to hurry matters little, sent the next
performer on as she left the stage.
This was a man who plays the organ
with mastery skill and whose name is
sufficient to give distinction to any pro-
gramme. He took his seat and at the first
lull in the enthusiastic applause which
followed the singers withdrawal began to
play. ~
1t appeared that the audience felt that
slight had been put upon the singer, and
the applause became uproarious. The
woman came forward and bowed her
thinks, and the organist began again, but
the people would have none Of him. They
clapped and pounded and stamped, appar-
emily bent on drowning out the organ.
At last the singer came out again and
with half apologize glance toward the
organist stepped to the front of the stage.
An accompanies behind the scene struck
the preluding notes of Annie Laurie
An instantaneous hush fell upon the
great throng. The house was as quiet as
it had been noisy moment before. Then
the singer began, and as she sang there

wilhelm III as Art Patron.

Wilhelm earnestly desires to make the
fine arts flourish in Prussia and in this re-
spect, as in all others, to set the pace for
the German empire. He is generous in
exhorting cities to raise monuments and
helps all he can. He is interchangeable in
visits to studios and in encouragement to
sculptors, painters and other artists whom
he regards as able 1t is, however, only
under great disadvantages that man on
a throne encourages the arts. His very
power stands in his way. The importance
of what he says is such that a criticism
exercises a crushing effect. The fact that
he is of SO impetuous and self confident if
not exactly domineering nature puts
him at this disadvantage. He admires
greatly certain artists and their works
and almost violently dislikes the works Of
others. He is petty partisan, and, what
is worse, he cannot help it, because he gets
it by inheritance from some old Slavic
prince of an ancestor who in his own day
probably caused the artists of the wrong
camp to be sacrificed to the grim gods of
aganism.-Century.

Congress may have hoped that the ex.
press companies might pay a part
che stamp tax On the receipts given for
packages left with them for delivery, but
that it expected they would do so is not at
all likely. None of our senators or repre-
sentatiyes but has lived in the world long
enough to know that no one, be he indi-
viaual or corporation, hardly ever pays a
tax which he can shirk on to somebody
else; hence not one of them could have
re garded as probable thai thu express
companies would retain from getting this
tax out Of their customers. However.
what Congress hoped or expected is of
little consequence in this matter. What it
did is the important thing. In brief,
this was to pass law compelling the ex-
press companies to place one cent stamp
upon every receipt given customer.
But to refuse to receive packages and give
a receipt for them unless the customer
hands over in advance the amount of the
tax is clearly within their. legal right and
not in conflict with anything in the law.

| The resignation of the Sagasta minis
| try was not unexpected. With part of it
anxious to open peace negotiations and
another determined to carry on the war
to the bitter end, it was inevitable that it
should go to pieces. The character of
the ministry that succeeds it may tend
to show whether tho peace or war party
Is in the ascendant. Doubtless the most
Intelligent people of Spain today are in
FAVOR Of bringing the war to close, even
at the expense of considerable humilia-
ton. They know the utter hopelessness
OF continuing the struggle. But there is
great mass of ignorant people in Spai n,
who know little about the United Stat es,
and who, Notwithstanding the repeated
defeats of the Spanish navy, do not yet
perhaps fully appreciate the hopelessness
of continuing the war. Then there
is the army, which processes to believe
| thatsit can retrieve the disasters that have
befallen the navy if it is given chance.
These elements must be reckoned with,
and the extent of their antagonism to
peace negotiations that must involve
loss of territory ON the part
of Spain must bs accurately esti-
mated before such negotiations are be-
gun. OF course the Carlists will demand
that the war be carried on to the last ex.
tremity, but they can safely be ignored
if the army can be kept quiet and the
masses of the people can be convinced of
the uselessness Of continuing the strug
gle. The problem that is to be met is the
extremely difficult one of endin the war
with the United States without bringing
on an internal revolution, which .shall
| overthrow the present dynasty and sub
ject the country to greater evils than a
foreign war; No doubt the United States
can do much toward Its solution by ma
king its demands moderate, and this we
believe the administration will be in
clined to do. Our people are anxious
that the war should cease, as soon as the
objects for which it was begun are Sc
merely for the purpose of humiliating
Spain or for adding to our territory. AS
g. measure of self-protection against
further trouble of the sort which gave rise
to the present contest they will no doubt
insist that Spain relinquish all her pos
sessions in the Western hemisphere, and
forever withdraw from this continent.
and we may be under obligation to the
Philippine rebels to obtain some guaran-
tee in their behalf. If we can end the
war on these terms we shall have accom-
plished all and moro than we set out to
do. We shall have kept strictly too within
the spirit of our pledge to the world that
this was not to be war of conquest or
war for any selfish purpose, but simply
to promote freedom and humanity.

alt is difficult to make out from the dis
patches exactly what has been going on
at Santiago since the truce ended on Sun
day. The feet appears to have attempted
to shell the town and met with indiffer-
ent success. most of the shells falling into
the bay. Gen. Shafter has apparently
done little with his artillery and moth
ing with his infantry unless to draw the
lines tighter around the city. He appar-
entity still oherishes the hope that the city
win surrender without being stormed.
