American Girls Home in Paris.

A delightful way of bringing the Anleri-
can art students together in Paris was
the establishment of the American Girls
Home by number of wealthy New York
ers. The home is situated in quarter
accessible to the studios; and contains
about seventy-five large comfortably fur
Hfshed rooms, which are rented exclusive
~ to American students. There are three
large reception rooms and d library ON; the
first floor, and many girls who live IN
apartments not convenient for receiving
guests entertain all their visitors in the
paflors of the home, Every dag at 8
o'clock tea and crackers are. served. and
almost all the American students in Paris
are to be found there at that hour Con-
versation is always animated on art, nu-
sic. or the latest play, and the tea and
crackers are al pleasing adjunct to the
small talk floating through the rooms. No
fee is charged, even to those not living IN
the home, for the use IF the reception
rooms at all hours, or for the 5 O'Clock tea.

This, bnt Referred the Matter
to WashingtOn.

At Gen. Wheeler's headquarters, Be-
fore Santiago, July is. Via Kingston,
July JIG, 7:25 a. M The preliminary
basis for the capitplation Of the Spanish
forces In Eastern Cuba was agreed to
and signed under picturesque cieba tree,
half way between the lines, shortly after
midnight. Our commissioners were in
vited to enter the city BY those represents
ling Gen. Toral, but the invitation was de-
.clined and the conference was held under
the spreading cieba, just such tree as
that under which Colunabas assisted at
the celebration Of mass on his first land
ing in Cuba near Havana.
81 A Hitch at the Outset..s
At the very outset hitch occurred
owing to a misunderstanding of what was
said at the personal Interview between
Gen. Shafter and Gen. Toral at noon. At
that time, our iHterpr eter, Stransllting the
language of Gen. T0ral, had given Gems
Shafter, Miles and Wheeler distinctly to
understand that Capt.-Gen. Blanco had
consented TINT; the commissioners should
nave plenary powers to negotiate the
terms of surrender, such terms as they
agreed upon to be binding upon both par
ties. Something was said about a Motif
cation of the Madrid government, but
Gen. Shafter insisted that the capitula-
ton had beensactually agreed to and that
mo further consent of the Madrid govern
ment was required. ~
= When the. commissioners met, shortly
after 2 o'clock in the afternoon, those in
behalf Of Gen: Torals (Gen. Escario,
Lieut.-Col. Fortan and Robert Mason, the
British yice-consnD combated at once the
idea that the capitulation had in fact
actually taken place. The consent Of
Madrid, they insisted, was still neces-.
sary, but at the same time they claimed
strongly that it would, be forthcoming,
as Capt. Gen: Blanco had advised it and
the home government would do the. same
thing. ,~.,;st~>' s.-. ~. -s... - -
