Pneumonia Patient Has Trouble

a young colored man named Charles
Murphy, who came here with the race
horses, had an uncomfortable experience
yesterday. while endeavoring to get ad-
mitted to hospital, for treatment for
pneumonia. He went to Freedmen's Hos
pitai. but was denied admission on account
Of the quarantine there. Later in the day
he walked through the rain and reached
the eighth police station.
The officers there did all they could for
his relief They took him in the patrol
wagon to Garfield Hospital. There was no
room for him there. and then he was
driven to the Emergency. The case was
not a proper one for the Emergency Hos
pital, and the suffering man finally found
a resting place in Providence Hospital.

4 Twisted Tail,
the Editor Of The Evening Star:

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Mr.. Alfred Austin's eloquent poem on the
beauties OF an Anglo American alliance is
still going the rounds. and everywhere
TWO of the lines are printed thus:
Now let us have done with d WORKOUT
tall"
y tale of an ancient wrongv
This seems 10 be an obvious misprint for

Mr.. Austin must be referring to the
justly celebrated tail of the British lion,
which has been twisted so often and so in
giCriously by "a proud. free people" the
lords or strong. young land" that
doubtless Mr.. Austin is quite correct in
calling 1t WORKOUT tail" as well as "A
tail of an ancient wrong" The correction
is due to the poet laureate, as well as the

Tonight gentleman who came from Ha-
yana on the Ferrf, with General Lee stated
that the coBaull general had assured him
ma documents.,a and would give to the
Washington authorities indisputable evil
dence that WeyRsr had planned to destroy
any American awarship just as the Maine
was DESTROYED 1,
YoungnShrtoris Volunteers.
The general showed a letter from Al
gernon SartoTis grandson of General U. s.
Grant, in which Sartoris said he wrote as
grandson of the great commander on the
northern side to ask one of the leaders on
the southern side to permit him; in case
General Lee headed an invasion of Cuba,
to serve on his staff. Mr.. Sartors added
that he was twenty years old. He pre-
scented the compliments of his mother and
81 andmother.
The consul general was indignant at the
insults heaped upon his head by the Span
ish officials and the populace. He had
been snuobed at the palace by General
Blanco and affronted by DR.. Congosto. AS
the Fern, bearing the consular representa-
tves, left Havana harbor there were cries
of "Begone" from thousands Of throats.-
When General Lee went to the palace
yesterday he was accompanied by British
Consul Gollan, who was to take unwilling
charge Of the American consulate. MI
Gollan is a Spanish sympathizer and re-
fused to take charge until peremptorily
ordered to do so from London.
General Lee sent in his compliments to
General Blanco. with request for an au-
dience. He was still consul general and
desired to say that he took leave, pending
his return from the United States. Instead
of General Blanco came DIR. Congosto, with
a curt message that the captain general
did not desire to see General Lee again.

Last Nights Cabinet Meeting.

Immediately after the call of Senior Polo
at the State Department another cabinet
meeting was called by the President and
assembled at the White House last night
At the close of the second cabinet meet
ing it was announced that the Presidents
message undoubtedly would go to Congress
at noon today. On the best authority OH
tainable it was stated that the meeting was
devoted wholly to the consideration of the
addition to the message of the latest note
from Spain advising this government of the
declaration of an unconditional armistice
The suffiX to the Presidents message
merely recited this latest event in the de-
veIopment of the Spanish question, giving
the substance of the Spanish note and
recommending the earnest attention of
Congress- Otherwise, it was declared, the
message stood unchanged
After the meeting one member of the
cabinet said that the Spanish note had not
altered either the message or the situation.
1T is merely" said he, what Spain has
been asking for all along-more time. 1t

point in his missionary sermon. He
had Fl inished his firstlies and second

link them to an impassioned appeal
that would strike his Congregations
hearts, and make their tears Il Wv like

''If," he declaimed, "it has truly been
said that he who makes two glades OF
brass 10 grow where one"
The puzzled look on the face of deaf
old member in front pew led him to
pause and repeat:
"That he Is benefactor who makes

Smiles throughout the house, and his
own sense showed him there was some
thing wrong, but, with an. attempt at
lightness he said, airily:
