A School Dinner.

Miss Ida Williams, teacher in dis
trict 6S, invited her patrons to come
aud bring their dinner and have o
good time on Friday, December %.
A number Of the patrons came and
enjoyed social time and short pro-
gram when a curtain IN a corner of
the the school room fell and a rural
Santa Clause and small Christmas
tree met their gaze. Much mirth was
caused by Sants's mods and becks and
much good feeling caused by the little
treats Of popcorn balls for all and
candy and nuts for the scholars fur
nished by the teacher, but a climax
was reached when a bright eyed
opossom winked at the children from
bis perch in the top of the Christmas
tree. 1t had been captured on Ash
creek about mile below the school
house few weeks ago and was saved
to present to Santa Clause rs so few
OF the children ever saw an opossom.
A good time was enjoyed and it is
hoped all and others of the neighbors
may meet agsin. A PATRON.

A GREAT ATTRACTION.
Why Couldn't We Have a Few Spanish
Prisoners for New England Fair.

Portsmouth, n. H., July lathe
prisoners at Camp Long are indirectly
the source of much anxiety to the officers
of the marine guard. Now that they have
settled down to every day routine, people
In Portsmouth and the towns for many
miles around consider them objects of
curiosity and well worth going to see.
Accordingly the officers of the guard are
besieged with applications for permission
to visit camp. but orders are prohibitory,
something a majority of the applicants
fell to understand. More than half the
prisoners have been slightly i'll since their
landing as the result of change of food
and water. All of those who were i'll
when landed are on the road to rapid re-
covery.
There was story current among the
prisoners that one of tho ships guards
had ritied the safe before the surrender,
and there seems to be something in it,
else the Spanish prisoners have been
literally supplied with gold, for the ma
jority of them appear to have their
pockets filled with the yellow metal and
are spending it quite freely when the op-
portunity presents ITSELF Many of the
Spaniards including the ships cooks

WOUNDED MEN SINGING.
Sang Star Spangled Banner While Being
Taken From Transports.

Newport News, Va, July 14.-The
transport Breakwater arrived at Fort
Monroe this afternoon from Santiago de
Cuba bringing 40 wounded and sick
soldiers. Hundreds of people stood on the
pier. The scenes witnessed yesterday
when the City of Washington arrived
were re-enacted. The men were carried
from the vessels on stretchers, some
groaning on account of pain. while others
were singing the "Star Spangled Ban,
ner." The soldiers were placed in the
hospital tents where their wounds were
redressed and change of clothing placed
on them. Some of the men were serious
~ wounded, but the surgeons believe that
with few exceptions all will recover. 1t
was impossible to get list of the
wounded and sick. Among those who
came on the Breakwater was Col Mills,
Some of the officers who accompanied the
wounded soldiers on the trip North give
interesting accounts of the fighting

Another Story Of Interference In
Philippines.

Paris, July 4.-The Matin has received
from its London correspondent, who has
unusual.Esources of information, a des-
patch in which he says the European
chancellories are now discussing the
question of the eventual intervention OF
the powers in the Philippine islands.
The ambassadors at Berlin, the CORE
spondent adds have advised their govern
ments respecting Germany's line of policy,
which seems quite settled. Germany
would prefer the maintenance of the
status quo; but, if as consequence of
the war, Spanish sovereignty disappeared,
American sovereignty must not be it's
successor. An international agreement
the Matin correspondent further asserts,
will be established and the powers in
terested in the islands would each be
called on toss..protect.its, own interests.
The correspondent adds:
"This lis the logical outcome of the
Monroe doctrine, the principle of which
will be employed by Europe in order to
protect itself against American interior
enee, and unless appearances are deoep-
tive, Great Britain in spite Of talked of
Anglo Saxon alliance. will 90 the same as

terms and understanding that his troops
shall be returned to Spain. Gen. Shafter
will appoint commissioners to draw up
the conditions Of arrangements for carry.
ing out the terms of surrender. This is
very gratifying, and Gen. Shafter and
the officers and men of his command are
entitled to great credit for their sincerity
and fortitude in overcoming the almost
insuperable obstacles which they encoun-
tered. portion of the army has been
infested with yellow fever and efforts will
be made to separate those who are infest-
