render it impossible for him to comply
with the desire OF Governor Hastings
that the entire National Guard of Penn

The patriarchal beard of one of the
"oldest inhabitants" ofCoashohocken,
Pa, is still in its accus omed place
upon his chin, but it looks very moth
eaten and ragged. The other day,

took to repair the picket fence around
tho yard. Many Of the palings had
been knocked off and these it was his
purpose to replace. He armed him:
self 8 with hammer and nails and started
in. He got his first paling in place
and with much labor succeeded IN
fastening it there. But when he start
ed to move on TO the next break ne ,e
was brought up standing with yell
Of pain. He had nailed his whiskers
between the paling and the cross bar.
His wells attracted the attention OF his
wife, who, with her scissors, released
the old man, minus considerable
portion of his beard.

ST. FRANCBV WEST FELIAM PARISH LA, SATURDAY, APRIL g. 1885,

proceedings In the Senate shall have
place in history. The all important
Cuban resolutions were passed. The
gist of them is as follows: Joint recog-
milton of the independence of the
people and republic Of Spain relinquish
its authority and government in the
island of Cuba and withdraw its land
and naval forces from Cuba and Cuban
water, and directing the president Of
the United States to carry the resolu-
items into effect.
Mon DAY.-The presidents message
was read in the house today in tho
presence of vast assemblage and re-
ferred to the committee on foreign
affairs without debate. After the
message had been read the house
transacted some District Of Columbia
business and at 1855 the house ad-
iOurned.
TUEsDAY.-The house listened to q
speech by Gen. Grosvenor, the admin
istration spokesman Of the house to-
day and the replies made to him by
the "war" members; that Of Mr.. Bailey
being accorded the most attention
and applause. The house at $40 I'D
journed.
WEDNEsDAY.-The house of rep
resentatives to-day, after one Of the
most exciting and memorable days in
its history, by a vote Of 1922 to 19
adopted resolutions which nine-tenths
of its members believe makes war with
Spain inevitable. Tho resolutions
adopted direct the president to inter
vence at once in Cuba to restore peace
and secure to people of that island "a
stable and independent government O.
their own" and authorizes him to use
the army and navy to execute the pur-
pose Of the resolutions. The proceed
ings we're mared by bitter and acri
monious display of partisan temper.
THURsDAY.-The session of the house
to-day was dull and absolutely devoid
Of interest. The galleries and the floor
were almost deserted. Adjourned at
o'clock.
FR1DAY.-Tho only incident at the
session of the house today worthy O.
public notice occurred when Mr.. Bail
ey, the Democratic leader, arose to {
question of privilege to reply to repl,
to Philadelphia newspaper criticism
charging him with responsibility fo
the disorderly scene in the house OF

Bees From the Philippines.

There is one race inhabiting the
Philippines which will be a welcome
addition to the American citizenship,
and will be afforded every facility and
inducement to immigrate to the
United States and engage in the
skilled labor in which it has no peer.
This is the giant East Indian honey
bee, and investigation of its work and
immense capacity for making honey
and wax has interested the Depart
ment OF Agriculture in the considera-
ton Of an early effort to introduce it
into the United States Secretary
Wilson said in connection with the
proposed importation of these bees to
the United States that a special APP
preparation would be asked in his
coming report to Congress for the in
vestigations OF the bees of the world,
and a swarm OF the big Philippine
honeymakers would be brought to
America as soon as the question of
their value and the possibility of thsir
acclimation have been fully deter
mined. There will also be an appro-
priation requested for the study of the
agricultural and kindred products OF
the newly acquired territory of the
United States, and even under this
head the great honey bees of the east
could be introduced by the department
to this country Chicago Tribune.

One heroic defense against the armies
of Napoleon must be chronicled to the
glory Of Spain, but its impetus came
from the populace and not from the SOL
diery. In December, 1903, 35, 600
French surrounded the city, which was
occupied by 100 600 souls including
30, 900 regular soldiers and 20, 900 arm
ed citizens. A natural appearance Of
unusual nature was interpreted as an
omen that the patron saint Of Saragossa

Says Napier, the English historian Of
the Spanish war: 1.-THE citizens gave
up their houses, their goods and their
bodies TO the war and mingling with
peasants and soldiers, formed one mighty
garrison suited to the vast fortress they
had formed For doors and windows
were built up, house fronts loophoIed.
internal communications opened, streets
trenched and crossed by earthen ram
parts mounted with cannon, and every
strong building was separate fortifica-

could be none in a city which was all

Trees outside the walls were cut
down and houses destroyed to furnish
material for the ramparts. After week
of fighting the French preached the
walls, but for two months Saragossa
held out. The defenders made heroic
attempts to drive the French from their
positions inside the walls but day by
day the besieged circle narrowed. Gen
eral Palafox, the commander, would
have surrendered but for the intimida-
ton Of the local junta, a tribunal of
terror. Neither age nor sex could save
