PEACE MESSENGER HUNG.
Another Spaniard Attempts to Ne
gotiate With the Insurgents.

Havana, via Key West, Fla, Feb. g.
Spanish military operations continue
almost paralyzed, the season most fav-
orable for movements against the in
surgents thus being lost.
On Friday the insurgents entered the
town of Artemisa, province of Pinar Del
Rio, and plundered several stores. The
governor of Pinar Del Rio sent JOS
Mendonez Diaz as an emmissary to the
inSurgent leader, PercO Diaz, with pro-
posals of peace and surrender.
The insurgents hung him near a rail-
way opening, with the governors letter
on his body. Monday night they renew
ed the attack on Artemisa but were
repealed, leaving two killed.
The insurgents under lead of Miguel
Gomez surprised two squadrOnS of cav
airy on the military trOcha near Ciego
de AVila, and inflicted considerable loss,
including a Spanish captain. The re-
mainder of the Spanish force made a
disorderly retreat to Ciego de Avila.
Great discomfort exists among the
Cubans, as most of them want to be in
the government employ, and there is
not situations enough for all. The num-
Der of NAL contents is steadily increas-
ing.
Conservatives are more and more dis
gusted with the political doings of the
government, which is cutting them out
of public office and which in other ways
is so utilizing the election machinery as
to keep them from winning the next
election.
La Discussion prints the following:
The scenes witnessed at the residence
of DR.. Castro Jesus Ell Monte previous
to the distribution of food to the recon-
centrados are too pathetic to be de-
scribed. AS soon as the doors were
opened a mass of beggarly, living skele-
tons of all races, all ages and both sex
es invaded the places where food was
to be distributed with Outstretched
hands, almost f1eshless, implOring aims
a frightful animation filling the spectral
faces at the sight of food. Many were
not strong enough even to endure the
food and fell in the streets as they pass
ed away; a few others, more fortunate,
perhaps, seemed to gain some vitality.

Twentieth Anniversary.

Mr.. and Mrs. ID. II Brewer cele-
brated the twentieth anniversary of
their wedding last Tuesday with an
informal party. The guests began
arriving about seven O'Clock and re-
manned until about eleven. A num-
Der OF beautiful presents were present
ed the happy couple, among which
were q set Of dishes, two cups and
saucers, two bread plates, n silver
frat dish, salt and pepper set and
some other beautiful and useful
articles After spending an hour or
two in social conversation and some
amusements the guests partook of
come elegant refreshments, and after
some more fun and social chat, the
guests departed for their homes, each
one expressing himself as having
had most enjoyable time.
Mr.. and Mrs. ID. II. Brewer began
life together twenty years ago yes
terday. They were married in the
Carlyle church on Oct. 25, 1873. The
next year they moved to lola where
they remained until in October 1884,
Mr.. Brewer drove a dray and carried
the mail, express and delivered
groceries, rs al that time none of the
grocery stores ran delivery wagons OF
their own. In 1884 they moved to
Comanche County, where they lived
three years, moving from there to
Wichita, where they lived until they
moved to lola in June 1897, and where
Mr.. Brewer gained an enviable re-
putation rs policeman. o..

rIr. AtwoOd's Speech.

The best audience that has attend
ed any political meeting this year
there has been no Repu blican meeting
Assem- Dled at the Opera House We'd
nesday evening TO hear j. II. Atwood,
of LeavenwOrth, Senator Bakers law
partner, and they heard far and away
the best speech-there has been no
Republican speech-that has been
made in lola this year. John Atwood
is an orator and there was nothing to
criticise in the manner or the tone of
OF his speech. 1t was fluent and well
worded, it was gracefully delivered
and it was courteous and respectful.
OF course it would be easy for q Re.
publican to criticise the matter OF the
speech and to refute its argument. 1t
certainly seemed like rhreshing old
straw to hear the ancient stock argu-
ments against the national banks re-
vamped, aud to hear again the mill
dewed and moth.eaten appeal for
green backs and free silver. And 1t
was far from convincing a Republican
that he ought to leave his party, mere
ly because two or three Populist offic-
ials had done their plain duty, how.
ever rare such virtue has been among
Populist officials.
But 1t was all very pleasant and en-
tertaining, and the REGISTER is glad
that Mr.. Atwood came and hopes he
will come again.

and all who know him, honor and re-
spect him. Mrs. Brewer is a quiet,
generous hearted, sweet faced little
woman, who has never neglected an
opportunity to make those at home
and those around her happy. Five
children have blessed their happy
union and happier family could not
be found.

This is Not Pleasant.

"Only little game of crsps", is
the way they put IL, and nearly every
body laughs it Off as q joke when
some boys get caught at 1t and have
to settle with the police court. But
there must be some people to whom
it lie not q laughing matter. The
REGISTER has a letter from a " oman
that ought to bring tesrs of remorse
to some mans eyes. Here is n part
of 1t:
There isn't day but what some
one or other is there gambling and
losing what little money they have
and their wives and babies at home
almost destitute for clothes and for
something TO eat. One of those mar
ried men (he letter was called out by
the arrests that were made Sunday
lost thirty dollars and today he hasn't
a penny to pay for mouthful of any
thing to eat. God pity those poor
wlves!n
II this happens to fall under the eye
of the man whom it fits,-the letter
does not give his name,-aud if it
shows him what miserable sinner
he is and prompts him to "quit his
meanness" and to spend his money
hereafter for clothes and food for his
wife and babies, why-this paper
won't charge him cent.

Fred Funston rIarried.

Col. Frederick Funston, of the Twen
tieth, was married at Oakland, Cali.
Tuesday evening, October %, to Miss
Edna Blankart.
When this announcement came by
special telegram to the REGISTER the
surprise amounted to almost a shock
for it had been hardly five months
since the gallant Colonel had solemnly
assured the proprietor of this paper
that marriage was not for him. He
got laughed at then, and there would
surely be occasion to "smile" II he
were within reach now.
The fortunate bride is q native Of
California and Col. Funston never
met her until some time after his regi-
ment reached SanFrancisco. OF
course she is winsome, or she could
not have won q man who had fully
made up his mind to die a bachelor,
and she is said to be an especially
noted singer.
Col. Funston calls today with his
regiment for Manila, and his bride
will follow him Friday on another
vessel, going by way of Hong Kong.
And may they live long and be
happy and prosperous.
