THE WAR Is OVER.

As we 60 to press, cable grams from
Paris announce the acceptance by
Spain of Americas fnal terms of
peace. II document of only three hun
bred 7or is are the stipulations con-
tanned. The conditions conceded are:
The REIMBURSEMENT OF Cuba and the
cession of Porto Rico and the Philip
pines by Spain to the United States.
We pay, not as an indemnity, but as q
liquidation OF debts incurred for ''muni-
cipal improvements" twenty million
dollars. The impress on prevails that
in two or three weeks the peace COM
mission will close up it's work and return
home. The final treaty of peace Spain
having accepted it's terms have to
be drawn up with great care in order to
secure to the United States resumption
IF commercial relations with Spain on
an equal footing with other nations.
Whilst accepting the terms of peace,
Spain asserts her rejection of the "prin
ciples" on which those terms are based.
We as victors can afford to and should
be magnanimous and indulge in neither
recrimination nor unworthy and un-
seemly parade Of our triumph in a
righteous cause. In the vigor and
enthusiasm of our natural and laudable
self-congratulations we should not forget
to yield in ungrudging measures both
praise and gratitude to President VIM
Mckinley, whose fervent patriotism and
uuceasing watchfulness have so largely
contrib uted in conducting victorious
war, in the cause Of humanity to the
full sunlight OF glorious, honorable,
and we hope and believe, lasting peace.

Tobacco Information Here and Else
where.


where.
Growers in this section had commenced
to remove their tobacco from the polls,
when the zero weather of last week came
upon them, which of course caused all
operations to cease. OF the tobacco
conditions elsewhere the Eigerton Re-
porter says:
Very little of the 'eS crop has been re-
moved from the curing sheds so far this
fall. The hanging tobacco has come in
to case several times since it was cured,
but the growers have been SO busy with
other farm work that they could not
spare the TINA to attend to their tobacco
until the other crops were secured. The
time has arrived now, however, when a
considerable portion would be removed
from the poles in the advent of casing
weather. The longer the tobacco re-
mains in the sheds after it has cured
the more casing weather is required to
bring the leaf into pliable condition. 1t
is this fact doubtless that leads growers
to often permit their tobacco to reach
too high case, danger that needs be
carefully avoided. This is especially
true in season when the 4af is chin in
texture and more liable to damage like
the present one. The writer believes he
is doing kindness n keeping this mat
ter prominently in view. Beware of too
high case.
The Indications are much more favor
able now for general movement of the
SO crop than any time since buying
commenced this season. Evidently the
growers have betn loosirg up in their
asking prices somewhat for considerable
tobacco has been bought lately under
the six cent mark, which it seemed i'm
possible to do few weeks ago. There
are plenty of buyers ready to take the
field whenever they en- gain an intelli-
gent idea of what the tobacco is like.
Some even havn't waited and more sales
have been made of late than is gener-
ally known for buyers who are out and
have not been idle by any means.
Prices range all the way from one to
six cents; four to five being about the
average. Some offers are being made
on filler portions of the new crop, but
growers generally are not disposed to
separate them from the crop.

Thanksgiving is near at hand and
will probably pass off as quietly 10 camp
as an ordinary DAY. We feel that we
have much to be thankful for. We are
thankful that we hsve no more sickness
than we have in our company and that
what we have is no worse sGan it is, and
We are certainly thankful that the boys
have fire to get around when the
Sunny South" catches cold, as it does
occasionally. Many of the boys of the
southern regiments are going horne for
Thanksgiving, but our boys are too far
away to stand such luxury. Company
H, of Milwaukee, received 800 from
home with which to enjoy Thanksgiving
and they are going to Birmingham for
dinner. Many localities and individuals
are sending boxes from the north for a
Thanksgiving feast. We have ordered
one hundred pounds of turkey and viii

one meal at least.

negotiations are broken off, and if this
is true don't be surprised to hear of us
being headed for somewhere before very
long. Respectfully,

SEYMOUR
 AT LAST
 IN CHARGE He Assumes Control of the Prison. NEPHEW WOLF IS OUT CHIEF LEES FORGED TO AC- KNOWLEDGE HIS MISTAKE. President Tobin of the Board of Pc lice Commissioners Respon-
 sible for the
 Change.
CHIEF LEES FORGED TO AC KNOWLEDGE HIS MISTAKE.

Chief Lees evidently realizes his mistake in trying to fool the Police Commissioners into appointing his nephew, Sergeant Wolf, captain of the City Prison.
 Since Handsome Willie" Robinson, who was in charge of the prison, was forced to resign, Lees has been doing all in his power to influence the Commissioners to make Wolf his successor. After consid- able scheming the astute Chief of Police succeeded in having his nephew appointed to the responsible position of acting cap tain of the prison with the pay of ser geant.
 Evidently anxious to provide him with all the comforts of home,'' Lees ordered the carpenter of the Police Department to adorn the office in the prison with a stained glass front, so that his favored relative would not be annoyed by the tile.
 Just as "Rube," as he is familiarly known, was enjoying life at the expense of the city his uncle, the senile Chief of Police, received a note from Judge Tobin, president of the Board of Police Commis- SionerS, in which he stated that under no consideration would he submit to Wolf further conducting the business of the prison to suit himself. As the -esult Cap tain Seymour last night sat in "Rubes easy chair, surrounded by stained glass, and attending to the duties which fall to the lot of the captain of the prison. Nephew Wolf was not in evidence, evil dently having been told to stay away by his aged relative.
 While Chief Lees refused to discuss the note he received from the president of tn Board of Police Commissioners it is known that Captain Seymour will here. after assume the duties of captain of the prison. He was appointed to fill the va cancy caused by the resignation of Handsome Willie" Robinson, but for some unexplained reason Lees decided to have him alternate with Captain Bohen, while his pet relative acted as captain of the prison.
 ''Rube" is a matter of considerable spec ulatiOn. It is possible, so the wiseacres of the department say, that he is determined to give him a soft berth in the upper of flee" even if he has to sacrifice trusted clerk to make room for Nephew Wolf.
