 DeDOse Her i'm Holland.

Rockville, Dec. 21.-The unusual spec tacle of a school teacher who will not be deposed is now creating some little excitement throughout the entire town of Holland, but particularly in school district five, which is the scene of the defiance. The school has been in charge of Miss Mabel Sullivan, whose home is in Wrapping and who is a teacher of few years experience. There are ten scholars who attend the school. The district committeeman, George Draper, claims that Miss Sullivan is incompe- tent, and wished to depose her, but she would not be busted. The board of school visitors were then communicated with, Miss Sullivan's resignation asked for and Miss Annie Chapman appointed to succeed her. But the resignation was not forthcoming. Miss Chapman attends the school every day and so does Committeeman Draper to prevent any trouble There is one pupil loyal to the old teacher, and Miss Sullivan goes through the recitations with this one. It is claimed by some of the resi- dents that the teacher had new lock mt on the door and she carries the key. A district meeting will be held next Tuesday evening and the matter will be definitely settled.

 Canadian Roads.

New York; Dec. 21.-Preliminary esti- mates made by the Railroad Gazette show an increase of 2,S67 miles during 1898 in the railroads of the United States, This is the largest increase re- ported since 1892, when 4,419 miles were added.

Havana, Dec. 31.-Effigies of General Weyler hang this afternoon at Cerro, d suburb of Havana surrounded by jeer- ing crowds, while small processions march and countermarch along the streets, shouting constantly. Business is virtually suspended in consequence of the rejoicings over the approaching evacuation. In some instances bands of Cubans have visited Spanish shop keepers and compelled them to shout "Vive Cuba Libre" and to wave Cuban ilass. Sonora Ferres, the lady who en- tertained the Cuban generals, Sanguily and Loceret, and other Cuban officers at dance at her residence in Cerro last evening sent a message to the United States military commissioners, sug- gesting that the Spanish soldiers might invade Cerro and raid her house.

 PtttfNl Story.

London, Dec 21-Ill miserably clad and apparently in acute Restitution, the marchioness of Donegal applied yester- day for admittance to the Great North ern hospital, from which place she was removed to the Islington workhouse in- firmary. She explained that she was homeless and not willing to communi, cate with her wealthy friends, or with her husband, who is suffering from pneumonia. The story of the life of the marchioness is painful She left her husband in 1873 and in 1889 institut- ed separation proceedings.
 Unsavory details oftheir conjugal life were bandied about The marchioness failed to obtain alimony and has since received assistance from her friends In May last she broke her leg in a hotel elevator and was taken to a hospital. The marquis has had troubled finan- cial career. He was declared bank rupt in 1889 with liabilities estimated at 951S,S15.

RATIFICATION OF TREATY.
An Opinion That 1t Is Certatn-The
 Philippine Question.

New York, Dec. 21.-Hon. Clark How ell, member of the democratic national committee from Georgia and editor of the Atlanta Constitution, after consult ing with the leaders of both the polit- ical parties at Washington, telegraph ed as follows to his paper tonight. With the adjournment of congress for the holidays the final decision on the peace treaty is as clear as it will be after a vote has been taken in the sem ate. Two weeks ago the matter was in doubt-to-d day it Is as certain the treaty will be ratified as it will be that it has after the vote has been taken. MT. Bryan has been in Washington foi' several days and he is outspoken in the opinion that aside from the question of national obligation it is matter of party policy for the democrats to throw no obstacle in the way of ratification.
 MT. Howell then says, after the treaty has been finally disposed of, resolu- tion will be introduced making declara- tion of the proposed policy of this gov- ernment ill dealing with the Philippines and that this resolution will be framed very much on the basis of the Cuban resolution, adopted co-incident with the declaration of war, in which it was de- clared that the policy of this govern ment would be to give the people of Cuba free and independent govern ment of their own.
 He says: The republicans as body will favor the ratification of the peace treaty and will oppose any further ac- tion. They will hold that it will be time to cross the Philippine bridge when they get to it, and in the meantime the islands should be held under strict mil itary government and that, if in Gods own time it is demonstrated that the Filipinos are able to take care of them selves and desire to maintain a govern ment of their own, it will be time enough for the United States to take up the question and act accordingly.
 MT. Howells summary concludes as follows: As the result of the final en- counter over the resolution it may be that the country will witness the spec. tacle of badly severed party lines and that out of it may be furnished the battle cries around which will be form ed the lines of the next presidential fight.
