The Month Of Wars.

April sesms to be favorite month for
declaring war, - it has witnessed the
opening Of about all wars and war events
for some time back. The first blood
spilled in the revolutionary war was on
April 10. and the same date almost 100
years later witnessed the first blood
letting in the civil war. 1t was April 18,
1775 whom Paul Revere took bis famous
ride, and the next day that the famous
battle at Concord bridge took place.
April 1S, 1878 France blockcaded the
British squadron and in the same month
in 1881 General Greene scored his great
victories. In April 1872 Congress passed
the embargo act which brought on
America's second struggle. The Black
Hawk war began April 21, 1882, and on
April "a, 1s46 Captain Thornton and his
Dragons were captured. Fort Sumpter
was attacked April IL, 1851 and on
the 18th President Lincoln called for
volunteers. Tho battle Of Shiloh was
fought and New Orleans was captured
in April. '63. Potter's fleet and Grants
transports ran the Vicksburg campaign
along in old April "a. Both the revolu-
tionary and civil wars opened and closed
in April, and twas in April 1885 Texas
became Independent, Last OF all con
gress passed the Intervention resolutions
causing the Spanish-American war, on
April 10, 1898. In all of the five wars
begun in April in which the United
States was party, the stars and stripes
have come out victorious.-Siluer Cliy

BOTKIN TRIAL NEARLY ENDED
Closing Arguments of Counsel VIII Be
Heard To-day.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 27.-The defense
in the Botkin case has closed and the argu-
ments will begin tomorrow. To-day was
in rebuttal and gathering up of odds and
ends of the testimony. Several witnesses
were recalled. DR.. Tyrell, who swore on a
previous occasion that he had visited Mrs.
Botkin on the afternoon of Sunday, July 81
was recalled and repeated his testimony.
Miss Maggie Smith, a domestic employed
in the Victoria Hotel, said DR.. Tyrell had
asked her to direct him to Mrs. Botkin's
room. She was positive that it was not on
a Sunday, and substantiated her statement
by saying that she is never left IN charge
of the house on Sunday. She stated that
she had served dinner to Mrs. Botkin on the
day in question in Mrs. Botkn's room. Miss
Smith said that she saw Mrs. Botkin return
to the house late that afternoon and speak
to one of the guests in the hall. This tes-
timony corroborated that of previous wit
ness.
William j. Corcoran, purser of the steamer
Farrallon, plying between this city ard
Eureka, Cal, said that his vessel arrived
here at 4:10 o'clock on the morning of June
ter was mailed in this city to Mrs. Dun
ming. Mrs. Botkin was stopping III Eureka
al that time. The prosecution tried to prove
that the letter was sent TO this city with q
lot of other letters for posting, the Farrallon
not being a regular mail boat. The anony-
nous letter was postmarked June Is, at 1870
D. m, and Purser Corcoran stated that all
mail intrusted to him is mailed within an
hour after his arrival here. This seems to
be the weakest point in the prosecution.
Several other witnesses were examined and
an adjournment taken until tomorrow morn
ing.

ELKHART, Ind, Dec. 27-S. NJ. Stuckey,
who is visiting here, was on the Oregon dur
ing it's memorable cruise around Cape Horn
to join Simpsons fleet, and he relates the
following story:
On the night of May II, as the Oregon
was steaming northward, just off Cape St.
Rogue, the eastern point of Brazil, they
sighted three lights, an unusual circum-
stance in that latitude The Oregon was
steaming on in the dark without a light
Soon one of the strange lights went out
and the Oregon supposed her presence had
been discovered. She kept on her course
silently in the darkness, which was unusual
ly dense, and when daylight came no sign
of any vessel was apparent. However
Captain Clarke felt sure he had passed
through a hostile fleet. After the battle Of
July several wounded Spanish sailors were
taken to the Oregon, aud some of the lat
ter's crew talked with them. In the con-
versation the Spaniards said that off the
coast at Cape st. Rogue they found an
empty sugar barrel bearing the name Ore
gon,' and they knew that vessel had been
in those waters. They cha nged their course
but could not overtake the splendid war
ship.
Mr.. Stuckey was on the Oregon for three
years and on the Massachusetts three years
and has every appearance of being a
straightforward and honorable man whose
word would not be doubted.
