Chester, July 6.-The fire which
started Monday night at the Bear Greek

Another Spanish ship sunk by the
American navy, This time it is the AL
fonso XII. This ship, an armored
cruiser, attempted to escape from the
hArbor of Havana as Cervera's fleet
had from Santiago, and the fate that
overlook that fleet overlook the AL
fouso. This vessel was not an inferior
one. but a first-class one. and in the
hands of competent officers and crew
should have made a good fight Be
tween the personnel of the American
navy and that of Spain there is no
comparison, and the personnel has been
the determining factor in every en-
counter.
The Spaniards have been telling how
ineffective the blockade at Havana is,
and that ships have been entering and
departing at will. The fate of the AL
fonso refutes all these assertions.

The hero of the Thanksgiving of these

century is not the chivalrous hero of by
gone times, with his hair in cue
and laces dangling from his wrists, but
he stands stocky figure of herculean
strength supported on a gridiron pedes-
tai and holding aloft grimy football
in place of the sword of romance.
His face is massive with the force of
his purpose His hair recalls the jagged
shreds of Japan sroyal chrysanthemum.
His muscles are hardened with the pow
er of iron and the strength of his deter
mination to do or die His armor is an
assorted collection of pads and shields,
and, on the principle that it is impossi-
BILE to get too much of good thing, his
appearance on the field of honor is strik-
ingIy impressive and forceful The foot
ball player rules the land on Thanks
giving day His voice is loud in the
land, and his supremacy is unrivaled.
Banners are waved at him, and cheers
are shouted. Canes proclaim his VIC
tory, and beauty extols his prowess. He
is lord of the day. Chicago Chronicle.
