and their respective adjutants. There
were ~ persons all told at the table.
The center piece was a large bouquet
OF flowers OF the colOrs Of the Spanish

politics. After luncheon the American
commissioners entertained their guests
until ; O'Clock in friendly conversations,
no illusions to the war. the evacuation
or the presen. situation being made.
When the Spanish commissioners left
the hotel to take the train for Havana,
several of the American officers accom-
panied them to the station.

THE SPAN OF LIFE"
A Tremendous Audience Was Ire
mendously Pleased.

ls
m~endously Pleased.
The Span OF Life" Is all right. That
was the unanimous sentiment of the
audience which filled all the space at
Maguire's opera house last night. II
was a tremendous audience and II was
tremendously pleased. The members
Of the excellent company were called
before the curtain after the second act
and again after h third act.
While the scenic effects will be
longest remembered by those who en-
joyed the entertainment last evening,
yet all through the performance is
very enjoyable and every member Of
the company performed his part In very
creditable style. The famous Dona-
zettas are a whole show i'm themselves
and no trio of acrobats eve gave n bet
ter acrobatic performance in Butte.
Their ''span of life" was thrilling i'm
the extreme. G. w. Goodrich made a
most excellent villain. Few more viii
famous villains have favored a Butte
audience with their presence. and he
was Kissed i'm royal style-which Is the
highest of compliments to the real arch
villain. J. T.. Birch and Miss Valen-
tine. the comedians OF the company. are
very clever. but they overdue their
horse play n little at times and almost
become tiresome.
The show will be repeated tonight
and deserves another crowded house.

SOME PIECES. OF SILVER
To Repair Defects in Brother hos

REV. VAN ORSDEL'S ADVICE
An Able Sermon Delivered at the Grace
Methodist Church-He Urged
Everybody to Have
Faith.

Presiding Elder Van Orsdel conducted
the services last evening at Grace VI. r.
church. A meeting Of the Epworth league
was held just before the evening church
service began. Mr.. Van Orsdell was
gratifed TO note the goodly number of
young men and women I'm attendance and
said that Il spoke well for the workers in
the Christian cause. He was also pleased
to announce that since he spoke there one
year ago "A Jubilee service had been held
at which notes and other binding docu-
ments had been burned-the church debt
had been paid. Some one had suggested
To him the plan Of raising funds with
which 10 buy a bell for the church. He
thought "A bell was all right and said that
he would like To have the opportunity of
pulling the rope: but the good man had
his eye on something else. Winter Is COM
Ing on. The one great law to be respected
Is that governing the preservation OF man.
Too many precautions cannot be taken.

Tonight there VIII be a joint meeting
or the church and leagu and tomorrow

day night there VIII be religious services.
The elder took a very appropriate text
from which To Illustrate the points
brought out IN the course OF his sermon
and his address was much enjoyed:
III you lack these things. you can't see.
III you have them. you will never fall"
After reading these lines, he told of the
Hindoo priest In Chicago who entertained
a large audience by his dissertation en-
the glories of India. His peroration con-
cluded with the declaration: There are
no slaughter houses In India In that
country OF traditions they sweep the path
in advance OF them to clear II of any In
sect that might meet an ignominious
death under the feet OF the traveller. but
they do not see the evidences on all sides
OF the presence OF a Divine Ruler because
they are blind-they lack those essentials

DEGREES FROM ROME.
Ban Put on Book-Priests Permitted
to Bury Masons.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Mgr. Mar
received from Rome two important de-
crees bearing directly on the church IN
this country. The first is from the
congregation of the index, branch Of
the once powerful and dreaded inqulsi-
ton or holy Office, and states that the
book, Monks and Their Decline, by the
Rev. George Zurcher, pastor of ST.
Joseph's church, Buffalo, n. Y, nas
been placed under the ban of the
church, and the author is in danger
of communication unless he retracts
his errors.
The second refers to the funeral ser
vices of Roman Catholics who have
joined Masonic orders, and is by idr
the most liberal utteraDce which Rome
has yet made on this subject. The
latter decree allows a priest to offiCi-
ate, and permits the interment to be
in consecrated ground provided the
deceased was not openly hostile to the
church and expressed at some
time, even if indirectly, will
ingness to become reconcilad
to his former faith. This de-
will end a long-standing grievance
concerning the refusal Of some priests
to allow Roman Catholic ceremonies
at the burial of those who had become
affiliated with the prescribed orders,
while others gave the full rites of the
church under similar circumstances.
Father Zurcher's Monks and Their
Decline is the first book written by an
American to fall under the ban of the
| index. 1t has been an eccleSiaStic SEN
satiOn for the last three months, not
only in this country, but also in Eu-
rope. The decadence of Spain and Of
all the Latin countries is attributed
by Father Zurcher to the influence and
power of the monks, and he hints that
the United States should suppress all
the orders if it hopes to preserve law
and order in its new Spanish posses
siOns. Father Zurcher is still in charge
of his parish in Buffalo. He is an AL
satan by birth, but has lived in New
York for many years. He is consid-
cred a brilliant man. He has always
been a champion Of the liberal school
of American Catholicism.

short session of congress and that
there will be no revision of tariff
whatever. 1t bases this announce
ment upon the positive statement
made Monday by Chairman Dingley
who in an interview said: THE gov
eminent will need for some time all
the revenue produced by the war taxes.
During October the war expenditures
exceeded the war revenue by some S14,-
100000, and this month they will be
$40 900 200 in excess. This being the
case, the revenue act will continue in
force and unchanged except in few
minor features, for at least year
longer.
1T is harly necessary to add that
there will be no revision of the tariff.
The three months of congress will be
mainly occupied in passing appropri
alton bills, enacting new laws for lie
regular army and deciding upon legis-
lation necessary for the government of
Hawaii. From the present outlook,
the session will be well under way be
fore the treaty of peace with Spain
will be laid before the senate and the
ratification OF that document may not
be accomplished long before the fourth
of March arrives.
Il do not think an extra session will
be necessary or desirable, unless some
new question arises. We shall not
know until the treaty of peace has
been ratified what new possessions We
are to have and what legislation IS
necessary for them and even then we
are in no position to act intelligenIly.
| think that military administration
ought to to be continued for at least q
year longer. 1t will bring order ont
OF chaos and afford us time to de-
termine the wisest legislation. Time
always enlightens, and certainly when
congress meets in regular session in
December next year, we will be much
better quipped to consider the proper
method of dealing with the new pos
sessions"

BIG COAL COMPANIES FAIL.
One Located at Columbus, O., and
Other at ST. Paul.

Cincinnati, Nov. 15.-The Turner
and Jones Coal company of Columbus,
Ohio, and the Pennsylvania and Ohio
Fuel company of st. Paul, both owned
by the same parties, with Offices in
Chicago, were Monday put into tue
hands of the Security and Title COM
pany of Chicago, as receiver by the
United States court. The liabilities
are 100000. These companies are
among the largest that ever operated
in the Ohio coal fields. Their troubles
commenced in the summer of 1897 with
the great coal strike. They had large
contracts to fill in the northwest and
were unable to get the coal until late
in the summer and then a price and
with high lake freights. The result
was loss of over 100000 at that
! time. This summer they bought large
| quantities of coal which are still on
| their docks. The officers of the COM
pany claim they will pay the liabilities
| in full if the assets are carefully
! handled.

MUCH MONEY FOR CARS.
Wisconsin Central Receivers Author
lied to Spend 100000.

Milwaukee, Nov. 15.-Through pro-
ceedings taken before Judge Jenkins in
the United States court Monday, the
extension Of the payment of $4,000, 900
receivers certificates and the eXpendi-
ture of S1,000,000 in the purchase of ad-
ditional equipment for the Wisconsin
Central road were assured. The petit
ton for permission to purchase addi-
tional rolling stock was opposed, but
without success, by Edward P. Villas,
on behalf of Mark T. Cox, a stockhold-
er in the Central Car company, large
creditor of the company and owner of
the rolling stock leased by the receiy-
ers. The petition for the extension of
the time for payment of the receivers
certificates caused an impression that
this was a plan looking to the contin-
uance of the receivership indefinitely,
but Charles Quarles, representing
Trustee Edwin Abbot, said: 1T is the
intention that the receiyership be
brought to an early termination. The
extension Of the time for the payment
of the receivers certificates for two
years would not interfere with the re-
ownership. as there is provision for
earlier payment if desired An in
crease of 1 per cent. in the interest
which the certificates bear is to be au-
thorized. In presenting the applica
ton for the order permitting the ex
penditure of S1,OO0,OOO for additional
equipment, Receiver Howard Morris
stated that the extension was absolute
ly necessary properly to continue and
extend the business of the road. A
large number Of furniture cars must
be supplied, he said, else the road
would lose in the way of returns.
