ARRIVAL OF THE GENERAL.
FItxhugh Lee Greeted by Many Poo
pie During the Day.

WASHINGTON, April 12.--Consul General
FitzhuIsll Lee arrived here from Havana
at 2:30 clock this afternoon. A large crowd
OF enthusiastic admirers had gathered at
the Pennsylvania station and when the
general stepped from the train he was
greeted with a tremendous outburst of ap-
plause. Women waved their handkerchiefs
and men their hats and altogether the dem
onstration was a notable one. Washington
crowds as a rule are NOT demonstrative,
but this occasion was a conspicuous excep-
tion.
Long before the hour set for the arrival
of the train the crowd began to gather. 1t
completely filled the station and Sixth
street. adjacent on the east, and extended
far out into Pennsylvania avenue. The gem
eral occupied the last car in his train and
when 1t was known that it had reached
the station there was a tremendous rush
to get look at him. BY the time he was
ready to alight the crowd was so dense
about the train that even with the assist
ance Of a platoon of police it was with diff
ficulty he reached the platform. Several
personal friends of the general among
them number Of ladies' pressed forward
and finally succeeded in graspng him by
the hand. One of the ladies presented him
bouquet of roses tied together by ribbon
of the national colors and bearing tiny
Confederate battle flag. Immediately the
crowd began to cheer and round after
rce.nd OF applause greeted him as he walked
slowly and uncovered down the long plat
form of the station.
On reaching the B-street entrance, Gen.
Lee entered State Department carriage
and was rapidly driven ap the avenue to
the State Department. The general has not
pereeptibly changed in appearance since he
wac last in Washington. His eye was as
bright and hts step as elastic as ever. and
nothing in his manner indicated that there
had been anything unusual In his cxperi-
ence during the last several months. How
long he will remain in Washington is not
known. but Il is assumed that he will make
his wishes conform 10 those Of the Presi-
dent as to the length OF his stay.

The statement to the effect that

Lieut. Pearson another hold-over

This will still further complicate
the matter of the hold over Senators
who have accepted commissions in the

However if they vacated their seats
by accepting the commission in the

The courts will rule on this point

A Porerunner of the Most
Fatal Disease.

Though its offensive features
are sometimes almost unbearable,
few people are aware of the danger
of which Catarrh is the forerun-
ner. Catarrh invariably leads to
Consumption. Growing worse and
worse each winter, those who rely
upon the usual treatment of
sprays, washes and inhaling mix
lures find that it is impossible to
check the disease with these local
applications which only reach the
surface. The offensive discharge
increases all the while, causing a
feeling of personal defilement, and
gets deeper and deeper until it is
only a question of a short time
until the lungs are affected.
The Importance of the proper
treatment can therefore be readily
appreciated. But no good what
ever can be expected from local
applications, as such treatment
never did cure Catarrh, and never
will.

A DRUNKENNESS CURE.

General Kitchner is martinez in
the observance of rules, says writer
in London weekly, and is severe in
punishments. He comes down rather
heavily on drunkenness, and for this
reason has made himself to certain
extent unpopular with some of his
soldiers. Rogers, his body servant, Is
a teetotaller, which is an exceedingly
rare thing to find in the ranks Of
Tommy Atkins. "Kitchener's cure
for drunkenness" is a byword among
his men. Once taken, it is never for
gotten. The culprit is logged out in
full marching equipment, which is a
matter of go pounds, and is then COM
PEELED to carry in each hand bag of
shot weighing so pounds. A sergeant
and a guard are put over the victim
to see that he does not stop walking
or drop the shot. A man is sometimes
kept at this ''shot drilln for six hours.

YOUNG MEMS NEW YEAR RESOLUTION.

YOUNG MEMS NEW YEAR RESOLUTION.
ITO be perfectly frank, have very
little faith In New Years resolutions
which are made at the beginning of a
year." writes Edward Box in the De
cember Ladies' Home Journal. Sat
the same time, there are people who
fancy the idea Of making resolutions
at some arbitrary division OF time,
such as the first day of a new year.
But the character of these resolves
should emanate from ones own heart,
and not be suggested by another. Yet
an excellent resolution for a young
man to make is the triangular one:
Be Industrious, shun all Intoxicating
liquors, and put into good savings
bank at least fifteen cents of each dol
lar earned during the year."

Recalling the Deeds of the Brave.

Deeds of daring in the American navy
are so numerous that their recital would
fill large space in the smallest type used
in any newspaper. When the younger
Stephen Decatur, with few volunteers,
in the war against the Barbary pirates in
1904, entered the harbof of Tripoli, in the
face of the pirates feeet, boarded the
Philadelphia, which had grounded and
been captured, and, under the fire of $50
cannons, started blaze on her which
burned her to the waters edge, Nelson
called the feat "the most courageous act
of any age." In the same war Richard
Somers, with ten volunteers, on board the
sloop-of- war Intrepid, loaded with pow
der and shells, which were to be exploded
by a slow match, ran his vessel toward the
Tripolitan fleet intending to destroy the
fleet, but the fire from the pirates ships
blew the Intrepid up prematurely, and all
on board were lost Lieutenant William
B. Gushing, in small steam LAUGH, in

bers of picket boats on the lookout for en-
terprises of this kind, and torpedoed and
destroyed the formidable Confederate IRON
clad Albermarle, and, like Decatur, he
escaped, though all This crew except one
were either drowned or captured. Hob
sons feat at Santiago is only one of long
list of achievements which cast geam of
splendor over the history of the American
navy.

work it has been atthat-of which cut.and
slash sensationalists complain, has given
us most important results in this month
and half since hostillties began, with no
blunders on a large scale or single serious
reverse to show for it. "It is perfectly
wonderful" )" as Mr.. Prince says. No un-
due hasting, no starting before we are
ready, and yet no mistaken resting-the
record to date is one of unbroken success,
of steady and intelligent progress.
If we can take Santiago and capture
Porto Rico in the same swinging gait of
advance and achievement, making no I'M
wise hazard of ships or lives, Uncle Sam
will be entitled to the congratulations of
the world, for then peace would be in
sight and victory gained in way to es-
tablish to the full the courage and the dar-
ing of the navy and army of this peace
loving Republic. All this outruns our
story, and yet it is not unlikely to prove
prophecy; the poirt we would now makeis
that the advance along the line has been
such as to command the respect and ad-
mlration of the people.
