we are apt to get another singer to-
night.

A very pleasant party was held at the
residence of Mr.. George Fister last
evening in honor of Miss Jesse Nc
Alster, the daughter of Mr.. William
McAlister of ReXburg, Ida. Miss Nc
Alister has been visiting here since
Christmas.
ANOTHER SCANDAL
Another vile scandal is being cir
cl.Iated here It is charged that a
resident of the Seventh ward who has
been mixed up of late in some rather
racy doings, has had incestuous re-
lations with his 16-year-old daughter.
Both parties are now out of town,
hence nothing positive can be learned.
For a long time neighbors of the man
have SUSPECTED that he maintained il
licit relations with his daughter, but
could not prove it. Now, it is said,
she is soon to become a mother and
that the child is of incestuous parent
age The officers have become ac-
quainted with the matter, but can do
nothing because nc one can be found
who has knowledge enough Of the af-
fair to swear out a complaint.
Drs. Ormsby & Ormsby performed a
very successful operation upon Mrs. D.

found to be in the lead of the gentle
men, Miss Clara Foster holding the
highest score of the ladies.

Ephraim Enterprise: A couple of
young men of this city, who are both
madly in love with the same fair mai
den, became so enraged at each other a
few days ago that they sailed forth
to the field OF honor. each armed with a
gun, bent on spilling the others blood.
After reaching the bloody field they
faced each other, and carefully aiming
their guns, fred-that is, one of them
fired, and succeeded in puncturing his
opponents pants leg, and grazing the
skin on his leg. The other fellow re-
Trained from shooting only because his
gun would not go off. After satisfying
their injured honor they fell on each
others necks and wept tears of love
and repentance. The affair has come
to the ears of the officers of the law,
and as engaging in duel is a peniten-
tiary offense, the young men are liable
to get into serious trouble.

pulled toward her. The papers and
log of the Dauntless were examined
and found to be satisfactory.
We exchanged news and the Cincin,
natl having ordered the Dauntless 10

turn to Key West. Ensign Mcintyre
said he would transmit the request to
the Cincinnati.
The Cincinnati was also informed
that the Dauntless would cheerfully
take back any mail. In ten minutes q

tain Chester's compliments and he will
be obliged to you if you will take in
this mail. You can 60. Advise that
you steam due west six miles when you
make your first course, or you may get
into more trouble"
The instructions were obeyed liter
ally and the Dauntless set off on her
return. Before she had gone six miles,
we saw torpedo boat astern, evident
ly keeping an eye on US. Then we
saw the Cincinnati's search light sweep
the horizon and soon afterwards we
heard four shots in succession. AS
they were not followed by any others,
we presumed that some other boat had
been overhauled. Certainly there was
no bombardment of Matanzas COM
menced at night. The Dauntless made
good run, the north gale having
abated and the water being smooth in
the straits she arrived off Sand Key

morning hours today were taken up
by vigorous chasing of moving lights.
The only vessels spoken was the Brit
ish schooner Iolanthe, of Windsor, N.
S. She was allowed to proceed. She
was just out of Matanzas. No shots
have been fired since yesterday morn
ing on either side.
The torpedo boat Porter made a
daring trip into the shore under cover
of darkness last night, and Lieutenant
Fremont, her commander, landed with
small party and obtained valuable
information. The blockade continues
under beautiful weather conditions.
When darkness came on last night,
Moro Castle showed powerful
searchlight, and flashed it nervously
around the horizon. Another short
searchlight was also seen. 1t looked
to be from the direction of Santa Clara
batteries, to the westward Of Ell Moro.

LEE Is IMPATIENT.

Wants to Meet General Weyler With m
Army.
General Fitzhugh Lee went to Wash
ington last Monday. The general ap
pears somewhat restless under the
restraints placed upon him by the
delay in sending troops to Cuba. He
is anxious to get back to the island
and attack the Spaniards, and predicts
that if he is put in charge of troops
down there he will make quick work
of Blanco's army.
The announcement from Spain today
that Weyler had conferred with the
queen regent, and would return to
Cuba at the head of an army, proved
interesting reading for General Lee
who said after he read it that he would
like nothing better than to face Wey'
ley with an army. General Lee ap'
pears to think that the proposed delay
in sending troops to Cuba will prove
somewhat dangerous. The rainy sea-
son sets in on the island about the
middle of June or first of July, and he
had hoped that the troops would be
sent at once to Cuba, and that the
fight, as far as driving the SpaniardS
from the island, would have been over
before the rain began to fall, for il
Americans unacclimated are caught or
the island after the wet season begins
they will be very apt to contract
fever.
1t having been suggested to Genera
Lee that the Richmond troops who haC
at first been somewhat 10th to 80 t
Cuba, had reconsidered, and were de
claring themselves as prepared to e
wherever ordered, he exclaimed
"Richmond and Virginia will do thei
duty. never knew them to fail, ant
certainly they can be depended upol
now"

Students Want to Fight.

Students Want to Fight.
The students of the South Carroll.
ma college got up big demonstration
last Friday, marched to the governors
mansion in body, and rendered their
services against Spain. Governor Ell
lerbe made stirring speech and told
the boys that he would call upon them
if there should be occasion. Mr.. Har-
ry De Pass was the spokesman on the
part of the boys. He thanked the
governor for his address and said that
the boys would like to be among those
who planted the stars and stripes on
ruins of the Moro Castle, and in the
centre of old Madrid herself. He said
that the ancestors of the students had
fought in the front ranks during the
Revolution, the War of 1872, the
Mexican war, the Civil war, and the
sons of those ancestors would see to it
that the glory of the Palmetto flag
should never be tarnished.
