mother or matron attempts to impose
her own mental and moral limitations

to act as the general conscience of her

A Responsive Chord.
Miss Ferguson touches the respon-
sive chord in a woman's nature when
she says: 1.-The woman who is giving
ever so little of her small income for
home and shelter may crave personal
interest. may willingly listen to advice,
may be grateful even for friendly
care" more than all this she can al
most forget her liberty, or better find
a stronger liberty in a personal love
and sympathy of an older and respect
ed woman-but she resents most per =
emptorily an interference or curtail-
ment of her freedom that comes only
as from a paid officer or from an in
nate love of domineering.
One class of self-supporting women
still seek the home in preference to
the club, owing to the fact that the
latter demands greater expenditure.
We quote from the author mentioned
with a large working population of
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1898-04-24

women without local homes in great
cities, a goodly proportion of whom
are perhaps young and inexperienced
and without relatives and friends
with the high price Of living in ordi-
narily good boarding houses; with the
fact that comparatively few private
houses are open to strangers, and with
the great disproportion of wages paid
women to their necessary expenses,
the question how a self-supporting
woman can secure the comforts or
even the necessaries of life in localf-
ties morally clean, and where indie
fendence and Self-respect can be fos-
tered, becomes one of great import
ance.
SeIf-SuppOrtfng Women.
"The self-supporting women of this
country should be considered as belong
ing to two classes, both alike interested
in bringing living expenses within their
means, and both alike resenting the
association of the institutional or chart
table idea with the boarding home or
club. The two classes differ, however,
in the fundamental particular that the
one is self-reliant, self-respecting and
perfectly able, from a neral and social
point of view, to stand alone, while to
the other belong the young, the mex
perienced, the morally weak, the
stranger within our city doors. the dis
couraged and, perhaps, the tempted.
TO the former class the home stands
as an exponent of comfort, ease and
pleasure; to the latter, it stands for
protection and prevention. These homes
haVe usually been brought into exis-
tence by philanthropic movements. But
the public as well as the working girl
should be taught to distinguish be-
tween philanthropic effort and charity.
To the former all are debtors We owe
to it most of our library opportunities,
large proportion of our great hospi-
tai advantages, and the major part of
the great facilities for training and Gull

Nothing seems to check the large
crowds, that go to the seashore on Sum
days, but they increase every trip, and
especially the many that go on the favor
ite--Trilby.
Last Sunday, as usual this train left
the city with another large crowd on plea
sure bound and well may 1t be said they
found what they sought. The bathing,
both at Ocean View and Virginia Beach,
was all that could be desired, and, with
the many other attractions at these
places, the day was spent with much
pleasure. Owing TO n misunderstanding
with the Ocean View company the
through cars, as advertised, did not go
through to Ocean View, but hereafter
passengers will go through without
change. the same as theymow do for Vir-
ginia Beach. Next Sunday. at $50 A. NJ.

DANDY, Sunday, July 3, 10 p. NJ, via
PORT ANTONIO, JAMAICA, AND
KINGSTON, July 4, 12:45 p. M.-General
Shafter to-day demanded the instant and
unconditional surrender OF Santiago de
Cuba. The Spanish commander curtly and
emphatically refused.
The American general, in sending his
demand, warned all foreign residents out
of the city before 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning July 4th), at which hour the
bombardment would, he said. begin.
The only notice General Linares took
was TO announce that no Cubans would be
permitted to leave tomorrow.
This evening Lieutenant-Col Astor,
of General Skaters staff, was informed
by courier that the Spanish generals
were considering terms of surrender. The
courier's report. however, is altogether
unconfirmed. and Is discredited by Gene
raj Shafter.
sHAFTER CAN NOW BE DELIBE-
RATE.
Tonight the men are anxious for a
general engagement on the Fourth OF
July, but the officers do not expect It.
The general belief is that the crushing of
Admiral Cervera's feet entirely changes
the situation. Now that Admiral Sampson
can enter the harbor. and the army and
navy can make a combined attack on the
city, it is not believed that General shaf-
ter win make a decisive move until that
question Is definitely settled.
Admiral Sampson and General Shafter
had arranged for conference this morn
ing. and an escort OF cavalry was at the
dock here awaiting Admiral Sampson
and his staff. Admiral Cervera's dash for
liberty compelled the New York to leave
the harbor and rush TO the scene Of con-
fiict. The conference was interrupted TO

NEW YORK, July 4.-The New York
Herald has received from its correspond.
ents at Santiago the following details of
the destruction of Admiral Cervera's
! fleet:
Three of the Spanish cruisers that were
bottled up in Santiago harbor and two
| torpedo o-boat-destroyers were pounded
into hopeless hulks by the guns ofAdmiral
| SIMPSONS fleet on Sunday, in a vain at
tempt to escape from the harbor. The
vessels were beached in a last effort 70
! save as many of the lives Of the crews
as possible.
Admiral Cervera, on board the Crlstobal
Colon, headed his feet in an ATTEMPT to
get away at about half past o'clock.
So little were the Americans expecting
the dash that the flagship New YOrf was
cruising up the coast to the east. and re-
turned only in time to see the finish of
the fight and to fire a shot or two at the
torpedo o-boat-destroyers
The Iowa. Indiana, oregon, Massachu-
setts, Texas, Brooklyn, and converted
yacht Gloucester, formerly the Corsair
formed in position TO give battle as soon
as the Colon was sighted rounding the
wreck of the Merrimac. The American
vessels did not open fire at once; they
waited until Cervera's ships were out OF
range of Morro's guns before giving bat
tie. Cervera headed to the west, the
Colon in the lead followed by the Viz
caya and Oquendo and the destroyers,
all firing rapidly.
A HURRICANE OF SHELL.
All of the American battleshlps opened
fire at once, and the Spanish were soon
in a hurricane of shot and shell. but the
Colon kept on bravely until, when ten
miles to the westward of MORO Castle,
Admiral Cervera turned his vessel TO the
shore and beached her. She was blazing
in a score of places. but her guns kept at
work. and the white flag never showed
until she was completely dsables.
The Oquendo and yizcaya were OPP
posed TO the Iowa, Texas. and Indiana,
and went down to defeat with fearful
swiftness, covering only about half the
distance made by the Colon before their
captains ran them ashore. Their
crews fought with desperate bravery,

Lieutenant-Commander Wainwright then
placed his cabin at the disposal of the
Spanish officers.
THE COLON-wHERE is SHE?
At that time the Spanish flagship and
four other Spanish vessels had been
aground and burning for two hours. and
the only one OF the escaping feet which
could not be seen at this point was the
Cristobal Colon. But half dozen curis of
smoke far down on the western horizon
showed the fate that was awaiting her.
The Cristobal Colon was the fastest of
the Spanish ships. and she soon obtained
lead over the others after leaving the
harbor, and escaped the effect of the
shots which destroyed the other vessels.
She steamed away at great speed. with
the Oregon, New York. Brooklyn and
several other ships in pursuit, all Of them
firing at her constantly. and receiving
fire themselves from her after-guns. There
was no possibility whatever for her es-
cape, and while her fate is not definitely
known, at this houp 1t can be readily
imagined, from tho words of Captain
Evans, OF the Iowa, who returned from
the westward with $40 prisoners from the
vizcaya just as the Associated Press dis
patch-boat was leaving the Spanish nag
ship.
In answer to an inquiry. he shouted
through the megaphone:
81 left the Cristobal Colon far to the
westward an hour ago. and the Oregon
was giving her h. she has undoubted-
ly gone down with the others. and we
will have a Fourth-of-July celebration in
Santiago tomorrow"
NOT AN AMERICAN SHIP STRUCK.
Captain Evans, who had been in the
thick of the engagement up to the time
he took the Vizcaya's officers and crew
from the shore, said that to the best of
his knowledge not one American ship
had been struck.
The torpedo-boat Ericsson, which also
returned from the westward at about the
same time, made a similar report, saying
it was believed no man was injured on
board the American ships, though another
report had it that one man was killed on
board the Brooklyn. which couh not be
verified as this dispatch was sent.
SPANISH LOSS GREAT.
There are no means of telling now what
the Spanish loss was. but 1t is believed to
have been very heavy, as the prisoners in
custody report their decks strewn with
dead and wounded in great numbers, and
bodies could be seen fastened to pieces of |
wreckage floating in the sea after the |
fight was over. A large number of the |
Spanish wounded were removed to the |
American ships.
SAMPSON SURPRISED.
There can be no doubt that Admiral |
Cervera's plan to escape from Santiago |
harbor was entirely unexpected BY Ad- |
miral Sampson, and the best evidence of |
this Is the fact that when the Spanish |
vessels were seen coming out of the har- |
Dor the flagship New York was seven |
miles away, steaming 20 the eastward |
toward Juragua. the military base, nine
miles east Of Moro.
The New York was out of the fight al /
