frame dwelling house on the Belle Of
Butte ode claim. at the corner of Dunn
avenue and Academy street. in Walk
erville. and has been occupying 1T as a
residence for himself and family. For
several months the defendant has been
pumping water from the Magma Charta
mine. one Of its properties. and has al
lowed the water to run upon the plaint-
if"s property and dwelling and over the
fioors OF the house. partially filling VI
and rendering IL untenantable and I'M
mt for occupancy. Reynolds says he has
been compelled 10 vacate the house.
which has been damaged in the sum Of
$500. The carpet and furniture have
been damaged TO the extent of $50. He
has also been damaged TO the amount
of 500 by reason of being compelled TO
move and $50 on account of provisions
that were destroyed in the cellar. Rey-
nolds therefore asks judgment for $3.50.
including 800 as exemplary damages.
and that the defendant he enjoined

The People Of Butte Wanted tn Know
why the STANDARD" Was Late.
Ordinarily a small wreck on a rail-
road concerns Butte people only for n
brief space of time. but when IL hap
pens that a few ore cars block traffic
about h time the Standards are sup
posed TO be In Butte. as was the case
yesterday morning. then all Butte rises
to a question of privilege to learn the
why of 1t. II happened that yesterday
morning about 4 o'clock a train load OF
ore on the B.. A. & r. for Anaconda be-
came stalled just below the point in Sill
yer Bow canyon where the b.. A. 81 II.
crosses over the Montana Union tracks.
A broken Wheel upset two or three cars
Of ore, one Of which INSTRUCTED the
track Of the Montana Union, which at
that point runs parallel with the b., A.
a T.. and close TO II. The train was in
charge OF Conductor Wetherill. No n
was hurt. The special train from Ana
conda carrying the morning edition OF
the Standard for Butte was necessarily
delayed for several hours and when the
Butte readers missed their regular
morning news they naturally enough
came in droves to the office to learn the
cause of the unusual delay as stated be-
fore. The wreck In itself was a minor
occurrence and would probably have
never been heard Of II Il had not caused
a delay in the arrival Of the Standards.

PREFERS DEFEAT TO DISGRACE.
Spain's Minister of the Interior Says the
New Cabinet i'll Carry on the Mar

SPANS Minister of the Interior Says the
New Cabinet Will Carry on the War.
Madrid, May 22-6 p. MT is re-
ported that Senior Leon Castillo will
return to his post at Paris.
Senior Capdepon, Minister Of the In
terror, has denied in the course of an
interview that the change in the con
stitution of the ministry would in
volve any alteration in the foreign
policy of Spain, all the new ministers
being in favor of prosecuting the war
to the end with the utmost energy.
Spain" said Senior Capdepon, went
perilously near sacrificing her honor in
the interest of peace, only making a
stand when further concessions would
have involved her disgrace and eff
Placement as a nation. This she will
never do, and in iris resolve the new
cabinet is thoroughly determined as
the old. The new cabinet entertains
no illusions. Ii is aware that weak
ness and poverty are opposed to
strength and wealth; but Spain is in
the position of duellist bound to de-
fend his honor against the gross in
suits OF more powerful antagonist,
who, although he is convinced that the
result is almost certain death, yet feels
the force of the principle of noblesse
oblige.
Spain prefers a possible defeat to
a certain disgrace Ministers know
that the moral sympathies Of the pow
ers are with Spain, and that while
hcsitating to undertake the responsible
ity for action which might lead to a
greater war. they may eventually in
tervene from motives of self-interest
and public policy en- behalf Of Spain"

mitted regarding their movements. It
should be borne in miJ6d that this is a
time of war; that aH enemy is seek
ing every opportunity to do us
grievous injury; yhat the lives, the
fortunes and the sacred honor of our
people are at stake, and that the pre-
mature publication of the position of
our warships/ may cost the lives of
hundreds of bur sailors and eventually
of our soldl ers as well.
There isl not much that is Spanish
which is /worth imitation, but it must
be admitted that Spain has kept the
secret /of its naval movements better
than 1--WE have kept ours. Spanish
agents in this country had only to read
the/ papers to learn all the movements
off our ships and send the information
Yo the Spanish strategists, while our
Gown strategists were kept guessing as
TO the whereabouts of the Spanish yes
sells and were nicely fooled by the
false stories concerning them We
are still guessing where Admiral Ger
vera is and what he purposes doing
if he can, while he undoubtedly knows
a great deal more than he ought to
about our own vessels.
More information about Cervera's
movements and less about SIMPSONS
and Schley's may not altogether
meet the public wishes just now, espe-
clally in the latter case, but it unques-
tionably will in the end be better for
the public interests.
Meanwhile the associated Press will
continue to furnish whatever news
there is to be had from its alert and
reliable correspondents, who cover
every civilized spot on the globe, and
when you see it in your morning paper
you can be assured that it is so unless
warned by the label to use salt with it.

TAKE SALT WITH YOU.

If bulletined news turns out TO be
not so don't blame the newspapers.
They are doing the very best they
can, which is the best that can be
done. The board of strategy has
doubtless learned the value of SPANS
trick Of sending out misleading re-
ports as to the movements of its yes
sells, and in many cases it is toss-up
whether the news which leaks out
from Washington is true or false 1t
is a safe plan not to place reliance in
reports that are not confirmed
If the authorities at Washington
had adopted this plan long ago and at
the start established strict censorship,
especially over the cables. the Spanish
would have been deprived of many adj
vantages they heretofore have been en-
abled to obtain through the ease with
which they could keep track of our
vessels because of the publicity per-

THE CUBANs,

The indications grow that it will not
be wise to rely upon the Cuban insur-
gents for much help in a fighting way
when We get ready to invade Cuba.
Every effort made to definitely ascer-
tain the strength of the Cuban army
has tended to reveal condition of al
most total disorganization among the
patriots, who seem TO be largely with
out leadership. 1t is not positively
known that their organization ever at
tanned any degree of efficiency, and
how they have managed to continue
their struggle against the Spaniards
cannot be accounted for on any other
hypothesis than that of Spanish mill
tary incompetency.
1t is possible that the insurgent or
ganiZation is now weaker than at any
time since the instruction assumed Sc
rious proportions, due to our stringent
police regulation of the sea prior to the
declaration of war in order to prevent
g.
gulf been less vigilant and our treat
ment of filibusterers less severe it is
probable that the insurgents would
have been much better armed and or
gained than they now appear to be.
The outlook at present is that our
army of invasion cannot depend upon
the insurgents for aid in any other val
liable form than that of scouting duty
and in the capacity of guides. For both
of these services the Cubans are we'll
fitted, and there can be no question of
their eagerness to render this form of
assistance. The serious phase of this
matter, however, is that what SEM
blance of civil government the Cubans
may have once had has vanished and
that there will be none with which the
United States can treat after the Span
iards are expelled from the island. 1t
is ridiculous to contend that the Cubans
now have civil government when the
evidence plainly indicates that they
have no we'll organized military estab-
lishment TO defend government. We
shall probably be compelled to hold
the island under military control for
months, until we can devise and equip
a government for Cuba. This means
longer stay of our soldiers in Cuba than
would be necessary if all they had to do
was to drive Blanco's army off the ISL
and.

PROCLAMATION FROM MASsO.

Jacksonville, Fla, May pa spe-

from Tampa says: The text of a
proclamation issued by Bartolome
Masso, president Of the Cuban republic,
has reached here via New Orleans. In
it Masso strongly urges the autono-
mists, guerillas and Cubans leaning to-
ward Spain to come over to the Cuban
ranks. He assures them that, with
the aid of the United States troops, a
decisive blow to Spain is soon to be
struck and that the Cuban cause will
soon be won. He points out that all
who fail to join the Cuban forces be-
fore it shall be too late must seek a

BOBBY KNEW IT.

The following story is told by a resident
of Bloomington, Macon county, Mo, as
having occurred at a district school near

original compositions. Each scholar had
TO memorize his of her production. A lit
tie girl with blue eyes and sandy hair
lisped:
The dawning shafts of light come out
To greet the lark's refrain.
And every gladdened heart sang out
Then she stopped. A blue-shirted urchin
raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
What is il. Bobby" asked the tacher.
Il knows it, Know WHAT The line
she forgot" You do?" said the teacher
in surprise What is it," Promptly as a
rifle shot came the answer that completed
the verse:
To hell with Spain.
