Conan Doyle's New Ballad,

DR.. Conan Doyle has just published
another ballad, which is almost as stir
ring and ringing as his song of the
English bow in The White Company.
What of the bow?
The bow was made in England;
OF true wood, of yew wood
The wood of English bows;
So men who are free
Love the old yeW tree
And the land where the yew tree grows
The new ballad, "Cremona," deals
with the capture of the old city by the
imperial army under Prince Eugene
in l1U2, and with its recovery by the
Irish regiments of Dillon and Burke
then with the French army under Vile
roy.
Prince Eugene of Austria is in the mar
ket-place
Prince Eugene Of Austria has smiles upon
his face;
Says he Our work is done.
For the Citadel is won
And the black and yellow flag flies DER
Cremona."
Major Dan o'Mahony is in the barrack
square,
And just six hundred Irish boys are wait
ing for him there;
Says he, Come in your shirt,
And you won't take any hurt,
For the morning air is pleasant in Gre
mona"
Major Dan OMahony is at the barrack
gate,
And just six hundred Irish boys will
neither stay nor wait;
There's Dillon and there's Burke,
And there'll be some bloody work,
Ere the Kaiserlirs shall boast they hold
Cremona.
Major Dan O'Mahony has reached the
river fort
And just six hundred Irish boys are join
ing in the sport;
Come, take a hand" says he,
and if you will stand by me-
Then it's glory to the man who takes
Cremonai
Major Dams boys whip the besiegers,
and the ballad ends thus:
There's just two hundred Irish boys are
shouting on the wall;
There's just four hundred lying who can
hear no slogan call;
But what's the odds of that,
For it all the same to Pat,
If he pays his debt in Dublin or Gre
mona.
Says General de Vaudray you've done
a soldiers work.
And every tongue in France shall talk of
Dillon and Of Burke!
Is there anything at all,
Which 1. the General,
Can do for you, the heroes of Cremona?'
why, yes says Dan OMahony Zone
favor we entreat,
We Were called a little early, and our
toilets not complete.
We've no quarrel with the shirt,
But the breeches wouldn't hurt,
For the evening air is chilly in Cremona."

SHALL 1T BE SUCCESSFUL Def
ANCE?

There can be neither security for life
nor property in any community which,
having legislated for its own good,
meets with successful defiance when
it attempts to enforce its laws. There
is really no step between defiance OF
the officers of the law and rebellion,
except the step of force and arms.
Whether wisely or not cuts no figure
whatever in the case, but the people
of this city through their chosen repre-
sentatives and executive passed ordi-
nances relative to what is known as
race poolrooms, intended to suppress
them. After some wrestling with the
requirements of legislation, one ordi-
nance was finally settled upon forbid
ding that system Of gaming or betting.
There the law stands-an edict of the
people, whether constitutional or not,
whether wise or not, there is the law,
and there are but two things to do
about it. either enforce it and thus test
its validity or repeal it and confess in
ability to do what other communities
have successfully accomplished
The Chief of Police of this city
on Saturday attempted to close one
Of these poolrooms. He was un-
able to do SO because of the de-
fiance Of the party or parties run
ming the same He and his officers were
excluded, and he could find no lawful
way Of forcing an entrance. He estab-
lished guards about the place, and was
met with scornful taunts and defiance
falling just enough short of resistance
TO escape the criminal code.
The people OF Sacramento should
stand behind Chief Dwyer in this mat
ter and give him the powerful support
OF their voice and commentator. The
Chief on his part should not hesitate to
vindicate the law, nor do we believe
that he will falter. Let US see once
anan or set of men can successfully defy
the lawfully chosen representative OF
the people, clothed with authority, and
hidden by oath to enforce the laws the
people have enacted.
II defiance succeeds in this case IL
will be a severe, IL not a mortal, blow
to all succeeding effort to enforce SIM
liar laws that gamesters may see fit to
resist. We repeat the matter passes
beyond the question of the wisdom OF
the law, or whether poolroom gaming
can be prohibited by ordinance, OF
whether the accused parties are oper-
atsng under guarantees Of law superior
to the municipal ordinances-on these
questions conviction has already seated
Itself in all minds concerned about the
good Of the community. The simple
question OF the present Is, can the law.
full authorities Of this city be success.
fully resisted. defied and laughed tc
scorn by the poolroom gamesters? We
do not believe it, and have faith that
Chief Of Police Dwyer will find a way
to teach these iaw-breakers a lessor
that they viii remember.

LATEST FROM CUBA.

Cablegrams say that the Spanish in
Cuba and the Cuban friends of Spain,
being now convinced that autonomy is
a fat failure. have concocted another
scheme for accomplishing the peace of
the island and still leave it a crown pos
session. The detail of this new plan is
too extended for. repetition, further than
to sax that 1t proposes to knock down
the $500. .000 Spain claims Cuba owes
her because of the cost of two revolu-
tions to S1o0.0o0000; to recognize all
insurgent officers above the grade Of Col
onel, and accord them rank ard honors
accordingly; to forgive everybody
everything, and set all political prison.
ers free: to guarantee that Spain shall
never again for any offenses transport
Cubans to Africa or anywhere else.

protection in her favor in the tariff laws,
and the Cubans are TO set up a Govern

ereignty of Spain, in pro-forma way,
you know"
If the story is verify and it is given
with great soberness and the assertion
that it is true, then it amounts to
fat confession that the cause of Spain
in Cuba is irreparably lost; that the
Spanish have no hope whatever of re-
tanning control of the island, and are
really casting about for some way to
get out of the scrape with some show OF
dignity and honor. However. we may
expect the story of the new scheme to be
contradicted within the next twelve or
twenty hours.
These Cuban dispatches have an
amazing way of being mixed up and
twisted about, and of getting themselves
contradicted and explained and modi-
fed. until really at times. after utmost
pains to get at the truth we are left
afioat in a sea of doubt. Indeed. some
times we really wonder-taking the
news over the cable as a basis of intel
Iigence-if there is any war on at all, If
anybody has been doing anything to
anybody else.
However, we are quite convinced from
many evidences outside of the island of
Cuba that matters are rapidly shaping
themselves to end the insurrection, and
we believe quite as firmly that the end
will be independence of the Cubans.- All
the talk in yesterdays news columns
concerning the desire of the Cubans for
annexation of their land to the United
States; the expectancy and hope of
some that our Government will extend
a protectorate over Cuba; the express
sion of others that the United States
chatter is hollow and personal, and is
unworthy of credence. The Cubans do
not wish to be sold out; they have mani
tested no measurable desire to be- an
nexed to the United States; Spain at no
time has indicated that she would sell,
and beside the insurrectionists deny her
right to trade away their native soil;
to cap it all, the United States does not
want Cuba, and there is nothing in the
temper of the people Of our country indi-
eating any special desire to annex the
island. Before anything like that could
be accomplished there would have to be
revolution of sentiment in this country
such as our history has not known, and
that is unlikely.

Easily Enough.

Here is Sioux City Sunday-school
story:
They were studying in the catechism
about the wonderful greatness and
power of God. Can God do every
thing?" asked the teacher. 1t was gen.
orally admitted that he could. Then
the Hacher rather mischievously pro-
pounded a stickler, perhaps as test
of Faith. Gould God make two and
two equal to five?" he asked. The
query rather startled the little girls in
the class, and their faces took on a
worried, puzzled expression. They had
never thought of such a thing as that,
and it looked as if their faith was wav-
ering. The teacher waited with a
rather amused smile on his face. Then
up shot a little hand. We'll" asked
the teacher, what do you think about
it?" Yes, sir, He can," was the
prompt and certain response. Now II
was the teachers turn to look surprised.
Well how can God make two and two
equal five?" by adding one was the
triumphant answer, and the mischiev-
Gus teacher couldn't dispute it.-Sioux
City Journal.

The Flag That Tripped Booth.

Removal from one room in the treas
ury building to another of the flag which
tripped John Wilkes Booth and caused
him to fall and break his leg the night
he shot Abraham Lincoln has raised the
question as to the proper disposition of
that famous bit of bunting. Grand Army
OF the Republic men want it sent to the
National Museum, where it can be
properly taken care of. 1t is one of the
most interesting historic relics in the
country, and should be carefully pre-
served. The flag happens to be in the
Treasury Department because it was
presented to the Treasury Light Guard
along with another in 1864 by the wo
men of the department.. This banner
guard was of good use when Jubai Early
was threatening the Capital, but it did
not have any fighting to do.
April u, 1860, two nights before the
assassination of President Lincoln, the
Treasury Guard gave an entertainment
ar Ford's Theater for charitable pur-
roses. The theater was beautifully dec
Grated. On the boxes occupied two
nights later by President Lincoln and
the White House party We're the two
flags mentioned. They gave the boxes
such pretty appearance that the man
ager of the theater requested that the
flags be allowed to remain until the
night of the 14th, when the President
was expected to be in attendance at a
play. The request was granted. and on
the arrival of the President at the thea
ter the fatal night he commented with
pleasure on the decorations, and ex-
pressed admiration for the flag which
hangs in the treasury. In jumping from
the box after the shooting of the Presi-
dent to the stage below. one of the spurs
on Booths boot caught in the folds of
the flag. causing him to lose his balance
and fall. thereby breaking his leg The
