CLUB NOTES.

Wednesday afternoon was the annu-
al election at the Woman's Club.
The constitution was read and adopted.
Mrs. F. D. West was chosen presi-
dent: Mrs. John Wire, Vice President:
and Miss Florence Bidwell, Sec. and
Treas. The old executive committee
took the liberty of arranging pro-
gram for the ensuing month, and Sc
lected Nathaniel Hawthorn as the au-
thor for the literary days. They did
this because only one member OF the
new committee was present and, it was
thought they might not get around in
tine for thu next meeting. Mrs. Jno.
W ire is to have the life of Hawth orne.
It is hoped that now the busy days of
Spring work are over, many who are

come out and help make our work a
success. Every wOnlsn is most cOrdi-
ally invited to become member. We

War. war IN the cry
That now rings through the sky
From the cannon'e loud roar
And the bold eagles cry.
His tallons arc sharp
And his eyes keen and bright,
AS he scars DER our flag
In his Joy and delight.
"Beware Spain. beware
or the hour and the day.
When you meet our brave boys
"in battle array"
They'll come from the cold
Northern forests of Maine,
And our warm Sunny South
Of the orange and cane.
They'll come from the east.
They'll come from the West,
And like demons they'll fight
at their country's behest.
The Yank will be there
With his joke and his pun,
But he will not forget
His good sabre and gun.
The cowboys will come
With their lariets. too;
Look out for them, Weyler,
They're loOkidg for you.
Kentucky will come
With old brave Tennessee,
And Virginia'll be there,

In your beauty SO bright,
Weep, weep for your lovers

MORNING MILL BURNED.
Fire at MuIInn Throws Three Hun
dred Men ont of Work.

Wallace, Idaho, April lS.-The concen-
traitor OF the Morning Mining Company
is heap of smoldering ruins. About 10
o'clock last night fire started on the
ground floor presumably from a stove
used for heating, it being the only fire in
the building and in an hour the concen-
traitor, ore bin and part of the railroad
track were destroyed.
The long building sloping up the hill
seemed to act as a chimney and when
the fire was discovered it rushed upward
so rapidly that the employees had barely
time to escape. The fire was visible here
but it was over so soon that it was gen
orally thought to be some buildings in
town until the telephone office opened
this morning.
Persons who were on the ground de-
scribe the fire as something terrinc. The
roof was covered with corrugated iron,
but so great was the draft that those
iron sheets were lifted like shingles 300
or 400 feet into the air.
The mill was built in 1892, costing or
iginally about SsOOOO Improvements
have been made at various times since.
$4,000 having been spent on it during the
past year, and the total cost to date has
not fallen much short of Sl25,OOO, al
though it could probably be duplicated
now for 100000. Sixty thousand dol
lars in insurance was carried, distributed
among y different companies.
Both Peter Larsen and 7. l.. Greenough,
the principal owners, were on the ground
at the time of the fire, having come from
Milwaukee to settle with the employees
regarding the recent demand for an in
crease of wages. They propose to rebuild
Immediately, commencing work as soon
as the work of the insurance admsters
is completed.
To rebuild will require not less than six
and probably as much as eight months
during which time the 300 men employed
will be laid off, except few to care for
the mine and do development work.

RARE GEMS.

Among the colored diamonds there Is
one of a green tint, now in Dresden, and
formerly owned by Augustus the Strong
The grand duke of Tuscany possessed
blue one. and the famous Hope diamond
was also blue and remarkably beautiful
No account of diamonds could omit
mention of the great Braganza the For
tuguese crown jewel, which is SAID TO
weigh 1880 carats, and is valued by the
jewellers of Brazil, where it was found,
at 81 .395 900 600! But it has been sug-
gested that this diamond is a white to-
paz-in which case the millions vanish.
The Portuguese government refuses to al
low the stone to be examined.
The crown diamonds of the Brazilian
empire were valued at more than $lS,-
100000. One of the principal stones was
set in the handle of the cane of John VII.
Still more remarkable, the doublet of
ceremony of Joseph l of Portugal had for
buttons 20 diamonds, aggregating the
neat SUM of $465,000.
Brazil, which produced the diamond
handled cane and the Braganza, where
diamonds are found in the crops of fowls
and adhering to the roots of cabbages,
and were formerly used by the gold hunt
ers for counters in card playing-Brazil
must be allowed to be country of mar
wells. Though modern scientists, denying
that diamonds have souls or power to
cure toothache, agree that they may be
smelt and tasted, it has remained for the
officers of the Brazilian Junta Diamant-
ina to assert that they produce music.
BY rubbing the diamonds together close
to the ear these experts declare that they
can distinguish the true from the false.

RIVETED LETTERS.

Riveted letters are a decided novelty,
and are the outcome of a desire to have
an absolutely safe envelope, says the
Philadelphia Record. These envelopes,
which can be secured by rivets, are per-
forated in one or more places, and before
closing the letter the stem of the rivet,
which possesses a fiat head, is pushed
through the small holes from the inside
of the envelope and the flap then struck
down. Over that stem a small net with
conical hole is placed. This hole is wider
at the top part where the stem protrudes
All the parts are made of lead or some
other equally soft metal. In order to Sc
cure the rivet head has to be hammered
out of the protruding stem. For this
purpose a steel mold or shield is placed
over it and driver home with the aid of
hammer or with the fiat of the hand.
The stem then fills up the conical hole
in the nut with which it forms one solid
piece showing the clear impression of the
shield or seal.

THE SACK OF PORT-AU-PRINCE.

In the April st. Nicholas Mr.. Frank r.
Stockton continues his series of narrative
sketches of 1.-The Buccaneers of Our
Coast" Mr. Stockton thus describes the
capture of the Cuban city, Port au Prince,
by Morgan and his buccaneers:
When the fleet arrived at the nearest
harbor Morgan landed his men and
marched toward the town, but he did not
succeed in making a secret attack, as he
had hoped. A Spanish prisoner had let
himself drop overheard, and swimming
ashore, had warned the governor of the
attack. Thus prepared, this able com
mander marched a body of soldiers along
the road by which the pirates must come,
and when he found a suitable spot he
built a formidable barricade. Behind this
his soldiers were posted with their musk
cts and their cannon.
But when Morgan came within sight of
this barricade, he considered that it would
be entirely unnecessary to attempt to dis
turb this admirable defense, so he march,
ed his men into the woods, led them en-
tirely around the barricade, and came out
upon a wide plain before the town.
Here he found that he would have to
fight his way into the city, and probably
much to his-surprise his men were pres
emily charged by a body of cavalry.
The pirates routed the horsemen, and,
after a fight of about four hours, took
possession of the town. Here they cap
tured great many prisoners, whom they
shut up in the churches, and then sent
detachments out into the country to look
for those who had run away. Then these
utterly debased and cruel men took their
"a 4
pillaged, feasted, and routed. Even when
the poor citizens seemed to have given up
everything they owned, they were told
that If they did not pay two heavy ran
SONS they would be carried away into
slavery, and that their town would be
burned.
For two weeks the pirates waited for
the unfortunate people to go out into the
country and find some of their fellow
citizens who had escaped with a portion
OF their treasure. In those days people
did not keep their wealth in banks as
they do now, but every man was the Gus
todian of most of his possessions, anc
when they fed from the visitation of ar
enemy they took with them everything
/ OF value that they could carry. Before
the citizens returned Morgan made dis
| coVery; negro was taken VINO was car
lying letters from the governor of San
tiago, a neighboring city, to some Of the
citizens of Port-auPrince, telling then
not to be in too great hurry to pay the
ransom, because he was coming with 8
strong force to their assistance. Wher
Morgan read these letters he changed hi:
mind and thought it would be a wis
thing not to stay in that region any Longer
than could be helped So he decided no
to wait for the unfortunate citizens t
collect the heavy ransom he demanded
but told them that if they would furnish
him with 500 head Of cattle and also sup
ply salt and help prepare the meat 70
shipment, he would make no further de
mands upon them. This. of course, tn
citizens were glad enough to do, and tn
buccaneers sailed away.

BIG INCREASE OF THE NAVY.
All Four American Liners-More
Warships and Torpedo Boats.

Washington, April l6.-Several import
ant and decisive steps in the work of war
preparations were taken by the navy de-
partment yesterday. 1t was decided to
assign the naval reserves of New York,
New Jersey, Massachusetts,, Maryland
and Michigan to the five auxiliary cruis-
ers, hereafter to be known as patrol boats.
The question of the American line steam
ers was also wound up today at the direc-
tion to charter all four of them-the st.
Louis, st. Paul, Paris and New York.
With the announcement that these
magnificent ships had been added to the
auxiliary fleet came the statement that
the department also had purchased the
Yorktown of the Old Dominion line and
the Yumuri of the Ward line. But of
greater moment than any of these devel-
opments was the reopening of negotia-
tions for the purchase of two warships
and several torpedo boats from Chile and
Argentina One of the cruisers is the
Chilean cruiser O'Higgins, just completed
at an English yard and regarded as one
of the most formidable of her class afoat.
These negotiations are being conducted
by Charles R. Flint of New York, who
has large commercial and financial inter
ests in both countries.
Orders have been issued to the naval
reserves of Massachusetts, Maryland,
New York and New Jersey to hold them
selves in readiness for duty on patrol
ships, but the militia will not actually
go into service aboard the ships until it is
certain that hostilities are to ensue

spaniards Called Home.
ARMY ORDERED TO THE FRONT
Movement of the Regular Troops of
the United States to the south.

Washington, April l6. - Decidedly the
most warlike step taken by the depart
ment in preparing for the possibility of
an encounter with Spain was inaugu-
rated yesterday when orders were issued
for the concentration at four points in the
south of six regiments of cavalry, % reg
iments of infantry, and the light batteries
of five regiments of artillery. At Chick
amauga there will be six regiments of
cavalry and the light batteries of five
regiments of artillery; at New Orleans
eight regiments of infantry; at Tampa
seven regiments of infantry, and at Mo
bile seven regiments of infantry Since
the civil war no such proportion of the
army has been modified, and the move
ment itself is the best evidence of the
gravity of the situation as looked upon
by the president and his advisers. The
determination to rendezvous the troops
in the south where they can be acclima-
tized to the conditions of more tropical
climate, has been under consideration by
the president and his cabinet for some
time. 1t was not until yesterday, how
ever, that the president, in view of the
enormous expense which will be entailed
felt justified in taking this step. When
Secretary Alger returned from the cabi-
net meeting, he at once called into con-
ference General Miles and Adjutant Cen
eral Corbin and acquainted them with
the result of the cabinets deliberations
There were hurried consultations, in
which the quartermaster general, who
has charge of the transportation of the
troops; the commisary general. who
looks after their subsistence, and repre-
sentatives in Washington of various rail
roads running to the south, participated.
The orders as finally given contemplate
the movements of troops to the places in
Dictated, as follows: To Chicamauga bat
tlefield, the First, Second, Third, Sixth,
Ninth and Tenth regiments of cavalry
and the light batteries of five regiments
of artillery; to New Orleans, the First,
Seventh, Eighth, Twelfth, Sixteenth,
Eighteenth, Twenty-third and Twenty
fourth regiments of infantry; to Mobile,
the Second, Third, Tenth, Eleventh, Nine
teenth, Twentieth and Twenty second
regiments of infantry; to Tampa, the
Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Ninth, Thirteenth,
Seventeenth and Twenty-frst regiments
of infantry.
The heavy batteries of artillery in each
of the five regiments mentioned will re-
main at their present posts. The two new
regiments of artillery recently authorized
by congress have not been recruited to
their full strength, and in addition are
not included in today's orders.
The department has so distributed the
% regiments of infantry at convenient
places on the gulf that they will be ae-
cessible for transportation to Cuba. Pro
posals have been invited from steamship
companies for chartering vessels.

San Francisco, April l6. - Rumors of
the impending war have caused marked
decrease in the passenger business of the
Pacific Mail and Oriental and Occidental
steamship companies. Twenty passengers
booked for the orient by a recent out
going steamer cancelled their booking a
few days before the steamer sailed, owing
to fear of being held up by privateers on
the high seas. These steamers carry from
one to four howitzers.
