BESIEGED BY NUNS.
Wonderful Tale Of Conquered Mon
astery on the Canary Islands.

Wonderful Tale of Conquered Mon
astery on the Canary Islands.
A curious tale of besieged and con-
quered monastery belongs to the early
history of the Canary islands, and is re-
told by Charles Edwardes in his descrip-
ton Of the isles. In The early part of
the eighteenth century there lived in
Orotava, on the Island of Teneriffe,
convent of Dominican nuns, who, after
some years OF ease, had the misfortune
to be burned out of house and home
They went into temporary quarters for
a year, but became dissatisfied with
such unconventional walls, and began
looking about for a permanent abiding
place. At that time there was in
Orotava house of Jesuits which had
lost its former Importance, and, though
commodious and healthful, gave lodg-
ing to but two men, the rector of the
house and his assistant.
On this mansion the nuns cast
cevetous eyes, and soon resolved to ap-
propriate it. One morning about 40 of
them advanced against it, by strategy
induced the Jesuit brother to open the
outer gate, and then, trooping into the
courtyard, fell On their knees, thanking
God for this preliminary success. In
vain did the two monks reason with
them on their scandalous conduct.
They merely held their ground, ex-
claiming: Father Andrew, this is a.
large cage for SO few birds!' Some
of the. more reasonable members of the
sisterhood explained that they were
really in need of a dwelling as spacious
as this, and that they did not propose
leaving it. The rector, in despair, fed
into the sacristy, from which retreat
he c1erted his colleague 10 be Of good
cheer. Patience, brother" cried he,
land do your best to extricate yourself
from those ladies!" That, however,
was more easily said than done, espe-
cially as the nuns were becoming so
excited that they might momentarily
have been expected to resort to the ar
gument of nails. The siege lasted for
three or four hours. News of it flew
about the town, and bands of young
men, scrupulously neutral, watched
proceedings from the bars of the outer
gate. Eventually the Jesuits yielded,
and the nuns occupied the house until
new convent, entirely to their taste.
was erected for them.-London Globe.

The Ibis In America

The ibis, the sacred bird of Egypt, is
not peculiar to that country, but is
found in considerable numbers in the
south, in Florida especially. In st.
Augustine and other coast towns it is
no unusual thing to see an ibis perched
on the ridge pole of house or stable
or stalking solemnly about yard, for
the bird is easily tanned, and seems to
be fond of human company

QUESTION WASN'T ANSWERED.

Washington, December 13--At the hear
ing before the House committee on mill.
tary affairs relative to the proposed in
crease of the army today, Brigadier Gen.
eral Schwan of the Aajutant General S
Office detailed at length the organization
of the army under the plan proposed in
the Hull bill, which has the endorsement
Of the Secretary of War.
Mr.. Sulzer of New York, asked: Gen
eral, what would you propose as means
OF stopping the friction between the COM
ruanding general and the Adiutant Gen.
eral of the army?"
General Schwan said he could not
answer, and there was chorus of vigor-
Gus protests from mem bers of the COM
mittee. Chairman Hull ruled that the
question was improper and Mr.. Sulzer 8
colleagues. Messrs Cox and Hay urged
him not to pursue the question. Mr.
Sulzer said Lieut.. General Schofield had
gone into the subject quite freely but he
dix. not wish to insist upon the question.
Major johnson explained the cavalry
features of the proposed reorganization.
lie emphasized the need of organizing the
cavalry in times of peace as 1t was 1mpos-
sible to properly equip and train cavalry
at time OF emergency. Mr.. Cox sharp
" questioned MAJOR johnson as to the
relative merits of volunteers and regulars.
Chairman Hull insisted that this queS-
tion was not pertinent to the hearing.
Mr.. Cox pursued the discussion, however,
and argued that the volunteers were the
best fighters as shown by the experience
of the civil war and the recent Spanish
war. Major Johnson said he had no
criticisms for the volunteers, although he
maintained that military training was
an important element ia the fighting
ability of the soldier.
Major W. A. Simpson followed on the
artillery branch of the proposed reorgani-
cation. He urged the battery as the limit
of artillery organization in preference to
the regiment. Major Simpson, who
served under General Merritt at Manila,
was asked by Mr.. Hay as to what CO.
oneration might be expected from the
pIlininos. The Major said opinion differed
as to this among the United States Off.
GERS in the Philippines. Most of The
Filipinos seemed to be ready to cooperate
With tho American forces, but some of

out the suggestion contained in his an
nuaI report relative to curing the defects
of the present laws governing rewards
for DISTINGUISHED services and promotions
IN the navy Secretary Long sent to Con-
gress drafts of two bills on the subject.
These have been prepared with great care

The first bill provides for the bestowal
of three classes of medals for distin-
euished services. An Honor medal for
distinguished services in b tile, carry
ing with it an increase in pay ranging

Day--None of the Officers of the
Fleet VIII Say Anything About
Their Expedition.
Provincetown. December 13.-The search
expedition under command of Lieut.. Hal
pine of the navy, started early this morn
ing and tugs took along the schooner Ella
Nash, with divers and diving apparatus
on board. The feet, however, only went
as far as Wood End, as the northeast gales
steadily increased all the morning and
the expedition returning to the wharf
shortly after noon. The sea off the end OF
the Cape was fearfully rough all day, and
very little shipping came around High
land Light.
AS is stated in the Associated Press de-
spatches Saturday, the Halpine expedition
will not only look fer traces of the Port
land, but also for other wrecks in the
vicinity of Cape Cod.
Nome of the officers of the fleet would
say anything this afternoon regarding the
object of the search or the results. SO far,
but it is generally known that little
progress has bean made and nothi ng def
mite located as yet. If the weather moder-
stes tomorrow, the large mast reported
last week some miles south of Long
Point, will be visited and an attempt
made to establish its identity. The present
conditions, however, point TO continu-
nuee of the northwest gale and it may be
a day or TWO before the tugs again start
out
The expedition is, without doubt,
government affair, under the direction OF
the photographic office OF the navy, ana
while heretofore there have been few
similar attempts to locate wrecks, 1t Is,
nevertheless. entirely in keeping with the
object of the office, which has spe iai
department. for inves iga6iDg defel1cts,

All the officers have been extremely
reticent ever since their arrival mere,
probably for the reason that they do not
wish to be identified with any private or
state expedition searching particularly
for the Portland
The Photographic expedition, as well
as that sent out by the state, is likely to
remain here some days.
The steamers pinnacle, which was re
port sd last week as that of the Pentagoet,
was positively identified today by Engi-
neer Coffin of the tug Peter Bradley as
that of the Portland. Mr.. Coffin says he
was frequently in the pilot house of the
Portland and is sure that the pinnacle
came from that steamer.
