De LONE SAILS TO-DAY
LARGE DELEGATION FROM DIPLOMATIC
CORPS GIVE HEARTY AU REV0lR.
No Further Communication from Minister
Woodford. Mr.. Du. Bose Will Proceed
With the Treaty Negotiations.

Washington, Feb. 1J-The late Span
ish Minister, Senior Dupuy De lone,
accompanied by Nine. De LONE, their
two sons, and Il Spanish valet left
W ashington at i o'clock this afternoon
for New York, whence they sail to-
morrow for Liverpool. A large delega-
ton from the diplomatic corps, accom-
panied by their wives, gave hearty an
revoir at the station to their late ass0-
ciate.
The entire staff of the Spanish lcga-
ton, headed by Senior Du Bose, the
Charge ID Affaires, were present. Quite
a number of outsiders were attracted
by the gathering, but further than that
the Minister'S departure was entirely
quiet and unObtrusivc.
Senior Du Bose, was busy at the lcga-
ton office to-day with extended COM
munications just received from Madrid
These did not relate to the recent inc;-
dent. The legation is now turning its
attention to other subjects, mainly to
the new commercial treaty between
Spain and the United States. The II
structions now received will permit Mr..
Du Bose to proceed with the negotiations
on that subject, and it is hoped that
these will proceed rapidly toward com
pletion.
Up to a late hour tonight the State
Department had no additional word
from Minister WOodfOrd. While there
had been an impression all day that a
despatch might he received at any hour,
the absence of a message was not look
ed upon as an indication of any change
in the status of the incident which is
now considered practically closed. As
matters stand, the only further action
to be expected from Spain is a disavowal
of the sentiments expressed by Dupuy
De LONE concerning President McKin-
ley, but this, if made. will come as
voluntary courtesy. 4 definite an
nouncement that this has or has not been
made is in the ordinary course Of events
the next news received from Madrid
Suspicious were aroused tonight by
the presence at the White House of
several members of the Cabinet, among
them Secretaries Long, Gary and Will
son, Attorney General Griggs and As
sistant Secretary of State Day. The
gathering was purely a social affair.

Not long since a Danvillc, ILL.,, jury or

pctent sum of So, 1898 to the afflicted

there is another estimate which if not in

CHINCH BUGS.

Prof. Lugger says the prospects
for chinch bugs in Minnesota this
season are very good, and this is
probably true of adjoining States.
The dry fall, the mild winter with
it's light precipitation, and the
comparatively warm, dry spring
have all been in the interest of
the bug, and it is correspondingly
healthy, high-spirited and ready
to enlist for the war, at home, it
has no desire to go to Cuba or
Spain. Prof. Lugger is now pre-
pared to send out the disease
germs, with directions for use, to
all who apply. But it is not safe
to depend wholly upon the disease
for tho determination, for it is ef-
fective only in warm, damp or wet
" ather, hence other methods of
destruction should be employed,
and that at the very first appear
ance of the pest. On farms where
they may be expected, - look for
chinch bugs early, in dry, sunny
locations where the herbage is
light. They are never found
where the ground is we'll shaded,
and at first they are confined to
small areas. At that time they
may be plowed under deeply and
destroyed; or if in patch toe
small to plow, which is not unlike
ly, cover with straw and burn it.
They multiply rapidly, and when
they begin to forage, if the wealth
or is not favorable to the develop
ment of the disease, they are very
hard to handle. But if taken al
the start there is bat little danger
Of farm being ravaged by them
though il may suffer from adjoin-
ling farms after the bugs begin te
travel. The first step in fighting
these insects is to get a copy oi
the chinch bug bulletin, by Prof
Lugger, which contains full direc-
tions for dealing with the bugs
their life history, etc. For thu
bulletin address Prof. Otto Lug
ger, ST. Anthony Park, MINI.

Twenty-Fifth Anniversary.

IWenty-F1ftl Anniversary.
On Wednesday, the 18th, the Con
gregationai church Of Worthington
celebrated the Twenty fifth anniver.
sary Of It's organization. There were
exercises in the forenoon, afternoon,
and evening. There were number
Of The former members present from
abroad. Among others, one of the
former pastors, Rev. F. l.. Fisk, now
pastor Of the Congregational church
III Elkader, Iowa.
Ihe forenoon meeting was de-
votional service purely. The after
noon meeting was held in the Pres
byterla" church building, as the Con-
gregaIloual building had to be given
up tor some repairs in the electric
Lighting, and the Presbyterian friends
kindly offered the use of their build
.ng. This service was mainly taken
up in the ollcall and the response
Of members present and absent.
The absent members responded quite
freely by letters. A large number
who have been members, but who
are now scattered from Maine to
California, sent kindly greetings.
Rev. F. G. Bailey, pastor of the Pres
byterian church, and Rev. j. M. Bull,
pastor of the Methodist church, be-
ing present brought congratulations
and best wishes from their respective
bodies. Five of the charter members,
all who are now living, were present
and spoke, and number of the old
or and former members also gave
their words.
At six o'clock supper was served in
the lecture room of the church build
ing to large number of the men,
bers of the church and congregation.
At eight in the evening the conclud-
ing services were held in the audi
torium. Several toasts were appro-
priately responded to by different
ones. The choir rendered two or
three very fine and appropriate &C.
lections of music. A history of the
church was read by DR.. George O.
Moore, who has been the clerk OF the
church most of the time since it's Or
ganization. The Doctor had taken a
great deal of pains to gather the ma
terials for this history, and it was
very complete and satisfactory.
This history is to be published in
pamphlet form, and will be very
valuable to all who are interested in
the early history Of the town. as veil
as the history Of the church. The
reading of the history, which took
about twenty minutes, was followed
by an original poem by Mrs. A. N.
Clark on the "Silver Anniversary"
To say that this poem was beauti-
fully written and most effectively
rendered, is but very mildly to ex-
press the opinion of every one who
heard it. This was a most fitting
close to the exercises of the day,
which increased in interest from first
to last. The building was simply
but beautifully decorated with apple
blossoms, and was a new illustration
of the fact that real beauty is after
all very simple.
The day will long be- remembered
by those who were permitted to be
present, as one of great interest and
profit.
