CROWS FIGHT A TURTLE.
A Maryland Man Comes to the Rescue
OF One OF the birds Held Pris-
Oner by the Reptile.

Benjamin Rust, of Chestertown, Md,
gives an interesting account of n COM
bat between a large swapping turtle
and n vast number of crows, which he
witnessed a few days ago. While noted
for his shyness, the crow is also noted
as u vicious fighter in defense of his
own household. Mr.. Rust noted u great
commotion among the crows in u mead
ow. The birds were darting down maxi
ing vicious thrusts with their beaks
and pounding away with their wings
at the same time keeping up q tremen-
dous chatter.
1t was noticed that one crow, though
tapping vigorously, was unable to get
away. An examination disclosed the
cause Of the trouble T. be a big snap
ping turtle, which had seized a crow
by the wing and held it captive, and
was making his way 10 a branch, where
it is supposed the bird would have
been dragged down and drowned, pre-
paratory to being eaten. Mr.. Rust cap
tured the snapper and released the
crow.
Snappers do no small amount Of dam
age 10 goslings and young'ducks. They
grab their prey by the foot as they swim
along, drag them beneath the water
and when they are drowned proceed to
devour them ut their leisure.

The Terms Of Peace.

Washington, July 29.--The Cabinet
discussed the Presidents answer to
SPANS peace proposal and reached
the following decisions:
The absolute surrender of Porto
Rico to the United States.
Recognition Of the independence Of
Cuba.
Cession Of one Of the Ladrone ISL
ands as a coulmg station and the
cession to the United States of at
least u coaling station IN the Philli-
zines.
The question unde cided is what
disposition will be made Of the Phil
lipines as a whole. 1t can be stated
that there is practically no difference
Of opinion in the Cabinet ON the re-
teption Of the Philippines as a whole,
all the members being opposed to our
acquisition Of these islands
Our answer will make no mention
Of the money indemnity. Neither
will there be any armistice at all
The answer will be in the nature o
an ultimatum and il Spain does no
accept it, she will fare worse in tht
future.

must be utterly removed. THIS
means that not only must Porto Rico
and Cuba be relinquished but that
the Spanish flag must be taken down
on every one Of the small
islands in the hemisphere. Two
other propositions were also disposed
of. The indebtedness assumed by
Spain and charged again 1t both the
islands OF Cuba and Porto Rico, will
not be assumed by this Government,
and moreover, commercial treaties
now existing between these islands
and other portions of the Spanish
domain will be invalidated by the
transfer of authority, the Cabinet
having decided not to recognize
them.

climbers assembled the topmost rork Of

Il nine-foot pole and hauled aloft the
union jack. A fortnight later another
party, prepared to shin up the pole and
so claim n six-foot higher record than
the first, assembled and found that the
flag had frozen while blowing to the
breezes. There it was imbeded in four
inches of icicle, the colors standing out.

but that icicle extended right down to

dence of the receipt Of goods, wares or
merchandise received for carriage and
transportation, and this bill OF lading,
manifest or memorandum, requires a
revenue stamp of the value of 1 cent
to be affixed to it and Cancelled. In
case of failure to issue such bill of lad
ing. the law imposes a penalty of $50
upon the carrier guilty of such failure.
The penalty for failure to so afix
stamps is not more than 800.
The purpose Of the law is clear. It
was to tax the corporation and not the
shipper, and these provisions undoubt-
eddy fix upon the express companies and
other carriers the duty of providing.
atiiXing and canceling such stamp sub
jects them to the penalties provided by
law.
1t is suggested that some of these car
riers are refusing to receive goods for
shipment until the shipper pays the
tax. While it is not my province to
advise as to the recourse which the
shipper may have In instances of this
kind. yet I am sure that laws are ample
to require public carriers and express
companies to receive goods rendered
for shipment or suffer damages for such
refusal.
