WASHINGTON, Oct 2S.-Secretary Hay
confirms the statement made in these dis
patches yesterday that the Cuban debt
question is not a closed incident, and that
the Spanish acquiescence in the matter cam
not be accepted as conclusive. TO use a
slang phrase, the Spaniards have "a string
tied to the surrender" AS matter of fact,
Spain's acceptance of Americas decision
not to assume any part of the Cuban debt
or to permit it to become burden on the
people of the island is contingent on the
successful termination of negotiations with
the Philippines. AS feeler, the announce
ment has gone out both from Washington
and Paris that the American commissioners,
in taking all the islands, may consent to as
suming the Philippine debt of $4,000, 900.
Thus far no serious protest against this
proposition has reached Washington. The
Spaniards will ask an additional cash in
demnity, which will be denied, on the theory
that Congress would never authorize an
appropriation to liquidate the obligation.
If any disagreement should arise and the
Spaniards should not agree to sign a treaty
of peace upon any pretext whatever, the
West India situation would remain unset
tied by any formal acknowledgment on the
part of Spain. In that event Spains atti-
tude, historically, would be that of a nation
yielding to a nation of superior force and
abandoning colonies which she could not
hold, but at the same time there would be
no record of a confession of defeat. The
american commissioners will use their best
endeavors 10 nave the peace conference
wound up by the list of December. Three of
them are United States senator's, and impor-
tant matters will call for their personal at
tention early in the coming session. which
will meet on the 5th of December. Some re-
ports go so far as to say that the Americans
have given notice that they will sail for
home on the 1st of December, and that the
Spanish commissioners must govern them
selves acpordinpIv

he Has kIllep eooo DOGS.
CharIestop's Executioner Ia Hardened.
but He Let One Dog Go.


The Charleston Is. CT dog killer
was telling his story the other day.
The man who was assigned to slaugh-
ter all the stray dogs that driited ia
the pound was a member Of the police
force, and he says his record has
passed the six thousand mark. To
kill six thousand dogs in the course
OF an ordinary run Of work is not a
record to be made easily, and the
killer thinks that he has the longest
list TO his credit in the country.
II have always killed the dogs with
parlor rifle" said the official exeeu-
toner for canine prisoners, ''and
owing 10 the fact that am considered
q good shot / have had the had luck
to get the detail great many more
times than / would have liked. Many
time have gone to the pound and
found forty or fifty dogs waiting there
to be shot, aud the minute would
enter they would seem to know my
mission and try to avoid me. | al.
ways used q small rife, mud it was
therefore necessary to hit the dogs
square in the brain in order to kill
them quickly and with as little pain
as possible. l would have 10 whistle
to the prisoners to look at me so 1
could get fair aim. Well, they
would understand what I wanted so
well that they would turn and hang
their heads against the wall. Many a
time have I left the pen sick at heart
with myself and my job.
'"The most disagFeeable experience
/ ever had was with little black and
tan terrier. There were forty-fye
dogs in the pen one morning when I
went in, and half an hour later not one
was on his feet. 1t was customary
for us to go about and kick the dogs
after they had been shot to see if they
were dead, and was doing tilis when
the little terrier jumped up and made
a break for liberty, He had been
possuming, but he was the deadest
looking dog ever saw until kicked
him. When the terrier got to the
gate and found it locked he made a
dash around the circle, whining pitt
fully. and my heart failed me.
'fhe fact is | would have lost my
job before / would have shot that
little dog, and as he came around
again called to the gatekeeper and
we let him ont. He few down the
street when he was free from the
pound. That happened while Oaps
tain Golden was chief, and 1 knew
he was strict about such matters, so |
felt uneasy about letting the dog go.
When l told him of it, however, he
said he would have discharged me had
| killed the terrier"
All the stray dogs found in the
streets Of Charleston are sent to the
pound, and il the owners do not pay
a fine and claim the property the
police executioner is called out. =

At Honolulu recently the Princess

present, as well as naval and army
officers. All classes were represented

The principal dish OF the dinner wsS

served in bowls and eaten with the
fingers. Senator Cullom and the
Princess sat side by side. and bowl
Of poi was served to them in common,
as is customary. The Senator did not
understand the arrangement and
asked.
''Princess, where is your poi?'
''There," she said, pointing at the
bowl.
''But where is mine2" he continued.
''The same as mine" said the
Princess, and they both began eating
poi from the same bowl, dipping il
with the first and second fingers oil
the right hand. as all the others were
doing. IL was a trying experience,
but Mrs. Cullom sat on the opposite
side Of the table to see that it wa.
passed without danger.

Dwellers in hilly countries do not
seem to appreciate the advantages that
may be gained by the use Of the noun
tain streams that abound in such re-
gions. 1t is rare, indeed, to see any
use made Of brooks and wayside
streams. This is the more remarkable
as their employment would be great
saving in time and labor to all those
who press them into service. Alloyer
the country there are farms aud eoun-
try seats where few days labor and
a comparatively trifing expense would
solve the problem for years to come.
Most Of these streams would supply a
small ram OF a turbine, giving an
abundance Of water in this way or
working a pump placed in the already
existing we'll. 4 small turbine re-
quires but very little power and may
be attached to an artesian well in such
a manner as to give water supply
abundant not only for family use and
stock but for irrigating purposes as
well.

Architecturally, the Omaha fair is in
many respects superior to the Chicago
exposition, comparison with which
seems to be inevitable, for the latter
set the pace for all later attempts.
When the Illinois commissioners Wis
tied Omaha to dedicate the Illinois
state building the opinion was freely
expressed that the grand court pre-
sented features of higher artistic merit
than did the court of honor, which was
the crowning glory of the Chicago fair.
The illuminations of the great struc-
lures are beautiful beyond description.
This feature eclipses any former effort
at electrical illumination and maiks
tie wonderful strides which the cleo
tricians are making in branch of sci
ence whose limitations have not yet
been reached and whose possibilities
lead almost &c the infinite. New York

chillan Indian Marriage Customs.


The Indians of Chile have queer
customs OF love and marriage. A
father always expects to get certain
price for his daughter, in the shape of
cattle, sheep, horses or other presents,
and the deal is made beforehand, the
groom paying as little as he can. The
young man then comes with his friends
to the house Of his to-be -father-i
and kidnaps his bride. A dark night
is usually selected, but the time is
often known and the girl has her fe-
male friends with her for the occa-
sion. II is matter Of Wedding eti-
quette that she should fight against
being married, and all the females and
women Of the family Join with her in
repelling the groom. The friends of
the groom help him and there is a
lively skirmish in the brides home,
which ends in her being dragged out
by her future husband. He swings
her onto his horse and goes of on the
gallop, making for the nearest wood.
The women pursue, but the groom, of
course, soon distances them. Having
reached the forest he takes his lady
love with him into its recesses and
there spends the honeymoon. This
lasts but few days, when the two
return TO the house OF the groom and
are considered married. Then the
husband takes the presents, as he had
agreed, to the father of his wife and
the ceremony is over. II later on the
husband wishes to divorce he may,
under certain conditions, send back
his wife to her father, and if she
proves unfaithful to him he has the
right to kill her II she deserts him
and goes back home of her own accord
nothing is said, but if she should
marry again the second husband must
reimburse the first on for the price
he originally paid to her father for
her. Atlanta Journal.
