Brilliant Local Talent


Opera House last night for the
benefit Of the Library by local
talent, was witnessed by fully
two hundred Of the representa-
tive citizens Of Ocala and among
the entire audience there was
entire satisfaction and hearty
applause. The plays, for there
were two short dramas Of one
act each, We're breezy and laugh
able, and the rendition by the
local dramatists was fully as
good as the average professionals
who visit our city. The first
comeditta, "a Cup Of Tea" Char
acters, G. G. Stapylton as Sir
Charles Seymour, who carried
out the part Of the jealous hus-
band, (Which fault he atrenOusly
denied however, to the delight Of
all, and with the ease and
grace Of the polished gentleman
that he IS, aud Of one familiar
with the life of an English gentle
man. Mr.. StapyltOn>S acting Is
natural and Of Il superior quality.
Miss BERTHE Badger, in her part
Of Lady Clara Seymour, was as
self possessed and as easy with
her lines as one to the stage
born. Miss Bad ger is no stranger
in Ocala ameteur theatricdlS, and
IS always greeted with express
sions of pleasure. And David 5.
Woodrow, in Scroggins the
servant, was Il great success. He
is a superb actor wherever you
put him and can take any part
with credit to himself and the
character assumed. Few tai
men look graceful on the stage,
but Mr.. Woodrow handles his
six feet, two, with the grace of a
Chesterfield. He wrung many a
hearty laugh from the audience.
w. \, Redding as Joseph, an
other servant, although his was
not leading part, created some
hearty laughter by his faithful
imitation Of 2 well trained me-
NAL. Some didn't think Burt
could act. They are wiser now.
Part two, short comedy, My
Unclc's Will" Characters,
Mr.. Stapylton as Charles Cash
mere, G. II. Mexican as Mr..
Barker, and Miss Badger as
Florence Maligold. Charles and
Florence, by the provisions of the
will, We're to marry or forfeit the
fortune. And as the natural
course Of human perversity they
didn't want 10, but finally a re-
cancellation was made through

OF superior quality and added
greatly to the success Of the
evening. The members Of the

ARMISTICE IN CUBA.
1t Has Gone into Effect---No News
of the Insurgents Attitude.
DIPLOMATIC PHASE IN STATU OUO.
No New Negotiations In the Spanish Trou-
bic ana No Further Developments In
the ola Ones-Gen. Blanco's
Proclamation.

WAsHINGToN, April Is. The diplo-
matte phase of the Spanish situation
is in statu quo. There are no new ne
gotiatioDs and no further develop
ments in the old ones. 1t is the expec-
tation that this status will con tinue
for the present, at least, while con-
gress considers the subject A definite
understanding has been reached
by the representatives of the six
great powers of Europe that
no additional action from that
quarter would be opportune at this
time. This is not the result of any
meeting of the ambassadors and min
isters, for they have not met in body
since the presidents message went to
congress, uttheir personal exchanges
have been productive of a common un-
Outstanding, and their advices sent to
the capitals of Europe are that the
present situation calls for no further
movement by the powers.
The armistice has gone into effect
in Cuba, but up to late hour yester-
day no word had come as to the atti-
tude of the insurgents. II they ac-
cept it, the solution appears to be
simple. If they do not accept it, the
expectation of the Spanish govern
ment is that this would be made mani
fest within the next few days by con-
tinued hostilities by the forces of
Gomez and others. II the Span
ish troops are attacked while in
garrison, they will defend them
selves, and thereafter will feel
fraa In al ha
ing the arInistice, it is known that the
Spanish military authorities did so as
a tender to the insurgents for a mu-
tual cessation of hostilities, but 10 is
viewed as being mutual undertake
ing, so that If the insurgents do not
accept the tender it is understood that
1t will not continue to operate as Il
means of keeping the Spanish troops
passive while under fire.
1t developed yesterday that Gen.
Blanco's proclamation of armistice
specifically stated that it was yielded
at the solicitation of the pope and of
the great powers of Europe. The text
of the proclamation made available
Monday referred to the pope, but
omitted the great powers of Eu-
rope Inc text was given, how
ever, exactly as received. 1t had
the effect of creating some feel
ing among the representatives of the
six powers, as it was thought to be sur
prising that Gen. Blanco omitted all
reference to the influence the powers
had jointly eXerted, which influence
were decisive in bringing the final re-
suit. This led to the development
that Gen. Blanco's proclamation, in
fact, had specified the influence of
the great powers as well as those Of
the pope, and that the omission
was through inadvertence Gen.
Blanco's language is regarded as sig
niticant in two respects: First, in
showing that Spain yielded to the
great powers and the pope; and, sec
ond, that the United States was not
included in the influences which
brought about the concession.

PLATE GLASS WORKS IN RUINS
The Extensive Plant ut Irwin, Pa, Employ
Ing 800 Men, Destroyed by Fire Loss
WIN Aggregate S55O,OOO.

IRWIN, Pa, April 10. The extensive
plant of the Pennsylvania Plate Glass
company in North Irwin is In com
plete ruins. Fire started last night
near the new casting hall, caused by
the blowing out OF gas converter.
The flames spread with great rapidity
from one building to another, and in
one hour nothing but smoldering ruins
remained OF the largest and most sue
cessful independent plate glass works
of the United States. 1t was the hot
test and quickest fire ever seen
in this whole country, and when
it first broke out it was known that
nothing could be done to stay the
flames. The loss has been estimated
at $3.50, 900, with an insurance of about
$3.50, 900. The concern employed about
500 men, who, with their families,
helped largely to make up the popula-
ton of this town and North Irwin.

Terrible Destitution Among the Cuban
Refugees In Florlda-An APP
peal for Aid.

WAsHINGToN, April Thirst Assist
ant Postmaster General Heath has re-
ceived a letter from Mrs Florence V.
Swain, of 0cala, Fla, respecting the
condition of Cuban refugees in the ex-
treme lower portion of our southern
peninsula. Mrs. Swain is the active
head of the Methodist Home Mission
society, of Florida. She asks that Il
portion of the appropriation for the
succor OF the reconcentrados of
Cuba and an appropriation which
it is expected congress will make in
the same direction should be set aside
for the relief of refugees now in Flor
Ida and daily arriving from Cuba. She
believes there is as great necessity
for charity among the refugee Cubans
in Florida as among those who are in
their native country, and says that IL
IL is not practicable for congress to
make provision Of this character, she
appeals To the charitable people of the
country for private contributions.

ARMISTICE GRANTED
An Important Spanish Document
Delivered to State Department.
LATEST PHASE IN CUBAN MATTER.
summary OF the Contents of the Spanish
Note-The Disaster to the BattleshIp
Maine Noticed and sympathy
Expressed.

WAsnINGroN, April 1.-THE Spanish
government, through its minister at
Washington, Senior Polo Bernabe,
last night delivered an important Off
cial document to- the state department,
stating that the armistice which the
queen regent of Spain had commanded
Gen. Blanco to proclaim Sunday was
without conditions; that her maiesty's
government had granted liberal insti-
buttons TO the island of Cuba which the
coming Cuban parliament would adopt;
recalling the coincidence and sympathy
expressed by the queen regent and
her government on the disaster of the
Maine and the horror this disaster had
occasioned in Spanish hearts, and ap-
pealing to the courtesy and sense of
justice of the United States govern
ment TO enlighten public opinion upon
the attitude of Spain. The note also
repeats the offer of the Spanish gov
ment to submit the Maine question to
experts designated by the maritime
powers of the world.
This document was the official noti-
tication of the Spanish government to
the United States of the granting of
an armistice and its essential terms.
Minister Woodford's dispatch Satur-
day night had briefly stated the fact
that an armistice had been agreed
uron, but IL was not communicated
as coming from the Spanish gov
eminent. Yesterdays communica.
ton cleared up msapprehension
on the most vital point Of
SPANS concession, namely, that the
armistice was without conditions.
