A FLASH IN THE PAN.

The reporter, on Friday night was
at the West Side City Hall, to take
in the doings Of the Texarkana
Rifles. We found several of the
fire company present in one Of the
lower rooms Of the City hall. Not
soldier did we see, either in the
hall or lounging about the grounds
We asked about the meeting and
was told that several Of the COM
pany had showed up at different
times, but left soon after they
arrived. We met Secretary Simon
Ehrlich at the Cosmopolitan Hotel,
as also his brother Harry, who is a
non-commission officer Of the COM
pany, and they expressed surprise
that Captain Haywood or Lieutenat
Jacks did not show up, Both Simon
and Harry said to the reporter that
ii did not matter to them whether
single one of the company would
respond to a call of arms, should
the company be ordered out, they
stood ready to leave here on any
train designated for the front, or
any "old place" they might be or
dered to fll. This is the right
spirit and the right kind of grit we
admire, and if we ever had an IN
feeling against these gentlemen, we
certainly would lay it away, for we
like a man ready to report in any
line of business, and more especially
when his country is liable to need
his services.

Killed BY an Oyster Stew.

Camden. N. j.. June 11.-Alfred
HirSt. of Jenkintown. Montgomery
county, Pa, died in the Cooper H os-
pital early this morning. An oyster
stew which he ate Thursday night
caused his death.
Birst, WHO was an athletic man
about thirty years old, entered the
hospital last evening, complaining of
violent pains in his stomach. He
said he had taken an oyster stew Il
little while before He could not tell
where the restaurant was located.
The doctor gave him a strong eInet
ic and the oysters were thrown from
his stomach He soon felt relieved
and went away. He returned in
an hour, however, and complained
that he felt as though he was burn
ing up inside Evidently he was in
agony lie was put to bed and seem
ed to be relieved by the medicines
administered. A nurse called the
resident physician at daybreak and
said the man was dying. Before the
doctor reached bis bedside he was
dead.
Coroner Lippincott and County
Physician Jones held an autopsy
They found death was due to ptoui
aine poisoning. The body is at Che

June 10 = Lieut.. Col. Huntingdon
battalion of marines, which landed
from the transport Panther Friday,
has been engaged beating oil bush
attacks by Spanish guerilas and re-
gulars since o'clock Saturday after
noon.
The fighting was almost continuous
for thirteen hours, until 6 oclot Z
this morning, when reinforcemei to
landed from the Marblehead.
Four of our men were killed and
wounded
Among the killed was Assistant
Surgeon John Blair Gibbs, sou OF

whose home is in Richmond. Va.
The others killed are Sergeant
Charles Smith, Privates William
Dunphyan JAS. Michigan. Corporal
Glass was wounded in the head.
The Spanish loss is unknown, but
was probably considerable. The
splashes of blood found at daylight
in the positions the Spaniards occu.
pied indicate that there were fatali-
ties, but their comrades carried of
the killed and wounded.
The engagement began by a desul-
tory firing of the pickets, one thous-
and yards inland from the camp.
Captain Spicer's company, doing
guard duty, was driven in, but finally
rallying on the camp, repulsed the
Ell envy at 8 o'clock.
The bodies of Privates McColgan
and Dunphy were found. Both were
shot in the head.

Father, Thomas Jefferson and at
the conclusion of his address the
rector of the University formally
turned over the new buildings to the

anything about the famous old insti-
tuition. to be informed, that the
principal building which was des-
troyed by fire about two years ago
has been replaced by another of even
fairer proportions.

The prospects for peace are not
very promising, if the advices from
Spain are correct. The Spanish pre-
mier says that his country has been
driven into wsr by the United States
III defense of her rights and national
existence, and it is with this country
to say when peace will prevail. The
rulers of this country say that it Is
to be fight to the finish. The pros
pect of peace therefore seems to de
pend upon how long it will take 10
whip Spain. 1t was predicted at the
beginning that that the war would
be over in sixty days, but it looks
now, unless decisive victoryis gain
ed soon by our troops in Cuba that
it might be prolonged for many
months, perhaps for years.

Trouble the Philippines Would Give
the United States.

What | would respectfully impress
upon the Americans is that they will
make a terrible mistake if they scize
the occasion of this war to acquire
territories outside the area of their
legitimate influences. such as the
Philippine Islands. That they are,
like Russia, n self contained country
is their strength. The whole scheme
of American policy would be shat
cred were the globe to be dotted
over with American Islands neither
States nor territories, held under sub
lection. In all probability the in
habitants of the Philippines, of
Porto Rico and of Cuba would be
considerable gamers by America an
uexing them; nor do think that we,
or, indeed, any other European
power. would be in any way damn
fed. But the questions to the Amerl
cans should be whether they them
selves will, on q, balance of advan-
tages or disadvantages, profit by the
annexation. We used to glory that
we were q non military nation We
have drifted into the position of a IA
ton with larger ornaments than any
other. No matter what we spend on
armaments, we are called on to spend
more. We hold larger portion of
the globe than any other nation. SO
absorbing becomes earth hunger
when once INDUCED, that we are
every year adding new territories to
our empire. And what is the result?
All domestic reforms are put aside as
unworthy to occupy our imperla
minds. II a poor man asks for bread,
he is told joyfuly to starye, with the
comforting reflection that he is the
citizen of an expansive and expand
ing empire. 1t is with us as it is with
. silly land owner who allows the
tares and weeds to flourish in his
fields. and bends all his efforts to his
useless rocks and swamps. We who
hold to the wise policy of Mr.. Glad
stone and of other of our departed
leaders are sneeringly called Little
Euglanders Be warned. therefore,
by the example OF this country, my
American friends. Be ready, as |
know you are, TO defend the vast
heritage that has accrued to you.
But rest satisfied with it. Remain
an example to the world that it is
possible TO be great and prosperous
without grabbing, now on one pre-
text, now on another, territory that
is a source of weakness rather than of
strength and without wasting your
substance in armaments designed 10
defend and to increase these unre-
munerative acquisitions : London

EPISCOPAL COUNCIL.
Bishops RandoIp;.'s Tribute to Lieuten
ant HObSGn.

Staunton, Va, June 1.-THE sec
opd days session of the council of the
Episcopal Church of the Diocese OF
Southern Virginia began yesterday
morning.
Bishop Randolph, in his address to
the council, congratulated it on the
progress of the diocesan work. His
annual report showed that he had
confirmed S4S persons. The total re-
ceipts of the diocese for the year were
1857 45013. and the disbursements
were as follows: Parochial, $13S,

$4,396.S So. The Sunday school col

Touching upon the subject of war
and Lieutenant Hobson's bravery
he said: War is an evil and IL bit
terness, but God sometimes teaches
great lessons of sefabnegation there
by, and that through such tribula-
tons nations were made one. A sub
lime picture was that when in the
grey of dawn, that young officer, with
a face of daring lit by a smile, stood
on deck and steamed into a very hell

More Fighting in Cuba.

Mole st. Nicholas, June H. Another
battle was fought on land and sea at
Caimanera Monday. 1t was the
tiercest battle of the war. In 1t were
engaged nine hundred marines
brought by the Panther, Marblehead,
Texas aud the collier Aberenda
Camp Niccalla and Crest Hill, where
the marines are entrenched, were
attacked by overwhelming Spanish
forces. Unlike the first fight, it was
not a surprise, MS the marines were at
a disadvantage only in number.
Launches of the Texas and Marble
head, with rapid fire guns, did heroic
work in shelling the euemy. The biz
guns of the Marblehead and Texas
ripped up the underground and trees
of the forest. The fight lasted all
Sunday night. Two marines werr
killed and four were wounded. The
loss of the Spaniards is not known,
but the bodies of Is OF their dead
were found.
Thus far, the marines have had the
best of the fighting, but the situation
is grave and they are exhausted with
repelling almost incessant attacks.
They have little chance to rest or
sleep and the time OF the arrival OF
the relieving troops is uncertain
Were it not tor the protection oil
the guns of the fleet the gallant little
band would be annihiiated by the
Spanish troops in oyerpowering mum
bers from Santiago de Cuba. As IL is
they probably can hold their position.
but they cannot move forward until

Hon. William j. Bryan, in speech
delivered at the Trans Mississippi
exposition Tuesday, made his first
public declaration on the war issue,
in which he took the ground, that
the war should be in the interest OF
humanity and not for the extension
of United States territory. The ten
dency of the dominant forces in the
government towards expansion finds
no favor with him. He sees in it a
departure from the long established
policy laid down by the founders Of
the republic which is fraught with
danger. In concluding, he said the
manifest destiny Of this nation is not
to acquire new realms to govern, but
to carry out the fundamental princi-
pies of democracy to the end that
equality among all citizens may be
secured.

The indirect manner of collecting
the war taxes, which will go into eff
feet on July 1st, may for awhile de-
ceive many people into the belief
that they do not pay them, but
the time cannot be long when
they will arrive at the conviction
that they must come out of their
pockets. That they will reach almost
every man and woman in the COM
munity is apparent from perusal
OF the subjects of taxation given be-
low in an editorial from the Rich
mond Dispatch. That they will be
continued Indefinitely too, even after
the conflict between this country
and Spain is ended seems to be equal
ly certain, because the United States
will have to maintain a much larger
army and navy than heretofore. The
following of course does not include
all things to be taxed but is sufficient
to convince the people who will have
to foot the bills:
Foremost among the stamp taxes.
because it will be oftenest before the
eyes of the public, will be that on
bank checks. The tax on beer is 81
barrel. 1t will be 50 under the
new law. From the 10 cents-a-p pound
tax on tea the government expects
to realize about $20.000,000 annually.
Stamps will have 20 be affixed TO
all real estate transactioEs-conyey
ances, deeds, leases, agreements, or
contracts, mortgages, trust deeds,
and powers of attorney. A nominal
consideration mentioned in deco
will not release the parties interested
from stamping the deed at the rate
OF so cents for every $500 Of value OF
the property involved over 800,
which will, of course, reveal the real
consideration.
The revenue from this item Of the
bill will probably be between $15, 600
900 and 100000
The telegraph companies have
planned to get even on the tax Oh
messages by compelling sendels to
put 1-cent stamp on all messages.
The tax on tobacco has been raised
to - cents pound.
The cigarette tax is 81 a thousand,
and the public will either have to
pay cents for cent box Of ten
cigarettes, or take box with fewer
cigarettes at the old price. There are
over 5000, 100000 cigarettes made an
nually in this country, and the war
revenue on them will be about SO,
100000.
The tax on insurance policies, on
steamship tickets, on express cons
panies, on vessels entering from and
clearing to foreign ports, the inheri-
tance tax, and the numerous other
things taxed, will also produce much
revenue.
rne tax of 10 cents pound on tea
i, the first tax of its kind for twenty
sir years. The last taxes on tea were
removed May 1, 1872. The tax is
pleasing to the large dealers, as they
ssbelieve it will keep out the cheaper
teas, which. they maintain, are really
the most costly, because they yield
comparatively less drink"
