Senator Chambers Organ Not In
HARMONY With the Senator.

Harmony With the Senator.
Concord, N. h, Jan. 5.-The Monitor,
Senator Chambers paper, in an edi-
toriaI tonight, says:
Recent utterances of Senator CALM
ger and Representative Sulloway, in
which they declare against information
al bimetallism are unfortunate. We
cannot look with approval upon at
tenpts to force this issue, either by
statesmen in ether sections, or by those
of New Hampshire We should in this
state firmly adhere to the ST. Louis
platform and to Mr.. McKinley's pres
ent attitude and keep the party united
as it was in March, 1896. Then Sena-
tor Gallinger manfully contends for BIZ
metallism and secured for it practically
the unanimous approval of the Repub-
lican state convention as against the
single gold standard advocated almost
alone by Colonel Hollins.

CEDED TERRITORY.

Continuing, the Reichsanzeiger says:
THE ceded territory comprises the
whole of the inner basin of Kiao-Chau
| bay as far as the high water line, the
larger headlands situated south and
north of the entrance of the bay to the
point where they are naturally bounded
by mountain ranges and also the is
lands situated within and in front of
the bay. No obstacles are to be raised
by China to any measures Germany
| deems necessary for the regulation of
the water courses. China has trans
ferred to Germany, for a period not
I stated in the telegram, lease of SOW
ereign rights over the ceded territory.
IF for amy cause kiao-Chau bay
should prove unsuitable for the objects
Germany has in view. China, after ar
irving at an understanding with Ger
many, will cede another piece of ter
ritory on the coast which Germany may
regard as more suitable for her pur-
pose"
GERMANY GETS ALL.
London, Jan. "a dispatch to the
Times from Pekin dated yesterday
wednesday, says that Germany has
taken a lease of Kiao-Chau for so years.
1t also says that reports are current
there that a French occupation of Hal
Nan Island is imminent.
Commenting on this the morning pa
per editorials generally point out that
the contract is one in which Germany
apparently gets everything and China
nothing, while the question of the safe
ty of the missionaries is entirely
dropped. Nothing, however is said
about railways or mines.
ASCENDENCY OF MONEY.
There is a general feeling in England
and it is reflected on the stock eX-
change that the situation in the far
east is improving. 1t is believed the
proposed Chinese loan of 5000, 600
will be guaranteed by the British gov
eminent.
The Pail Mall Gazette this afternoon
refers to the .'ascendency of money over
the mailed fist" and says:
Great Britain's vessels are anchored
off Chemulpo, and at Port Arthur. This
is quietly implying that Great Britain
will have voice in future arrange
ments. Further, the latest kilograms
clearly indicate that she has plenty of
friends
BROWN IS A SLAYER.
Special dispatches from Shanghai to-
day say that j. McLeavy Brown, the
British Corean customs agent at Seoul,
maintains firm hold on his post, and
that H. Alexieff the Russian agent
who has been endeavoring to supplant
him, has been unable to obtain control
of the finances, owing to the fact that all
the funds are vested in Mr.. Browns
name in the Hong Kong bank at Shang-
hal, which institution honors Mr.
Browns signature only.
PORT ARTHUR QUESTION.
Pekin, Jan 5.-The negotiations be-
tween Sir Claude II. Mcdonald, the
British minister at Pekin, and the
Tsung-Li- Yamen, with reference TO the
questions arising from the Russian oc-
cupation of Port Arthur, are proceed
ing.
The idea of an alliance with Great
Britain is reported to have excited in
tense enthusiasm in Japan.
The Marquis Itos cabinet, it is added,
will endeavor to promote an Anglo-Jap-
anese alliance.

The Democrats tonight sprung a SEN
sation on the Populist conference which
is being held here, and will force them
to go on record for the liquor question,
a thing which they, as Populists, have
never yet done.
The Democratic leaders have offered
to forego representation on the state
ticket in the next campaign, if the Pop
ulists will insert a re-submission plank
in their platform.
The Populist committee refused to-
night to make any statement regarding
the proposal of the Democrats, and will
decide the matter tomorrow.

HONEST FIGHTER.

General Seguerra is an intelligent
and honest fighter, and is wholly dis
gusted with General Pando's method of
campaign. He says Pando spends more
gunpowder il greeting autonomy than
in fighting insurgents, and adds that
in his opinion Cuba is lost to Spain I'M
less the government sends General Pol
aveija, or returns General Weyler. The
latter he considers out of the question,
because General Weyler was relieved
of his command at the request OF
Washington. General POlaveija he
holds in nigh esteem, believing that this
officer could end the war if an eXterml-
nation policy were adopted. He also
believes war inevitable between the
United States and Spain, under the pre-
text of the tilibustering expeditions.

NO GRINDING.

The insurgents are carrying out the
orders of General Maxine Gomez not 10
allow grinding, and they set fire to the
cane fields wherever possible, from one
end of the island to the other.
General Pando will sail tomorrow
morning by the steamer Panama, going
eastward. The insurgents recently
made strong attack upon Nuevitas,
province Of Puerto Principe, in consid-
cradle force, with loss on both sides. 1t
is believed that this is the reason why
General PandO is going there.
The insurgent general, Ducassi, is in
sight of Bahia Honda with $50 men.
Troops have been sent to meet him.
Captain Cabalcarri, chief of the gueril
las, who captured the insurgent leader,
Villanueuva, left CaimitO, this prov

insurgents, who macheted him and 10
others.
Senior Marcos Garcia, civil governor
of Santa Clara, reports that so recon-

number will die during the present
month from lack of food, clothing and
fuel, shelter and medicine.

"Bulbs, to be brought into bloom by

the same soil and the same treatment.
These are the only bulbs | would ad-

ed with earth. The hyacinth should
be about half its depth in soil. Water
well at the time of potting, aud then
put the pots away in a place that is
dark and cool, aud leave them there
till they form roots. This part of the
treatment is very important, and those
who ignore it will be pretty sure to
make failure of bulb-growiug so far
as flowers are concerned. The Roman
hyacinth is much preferable to the or.
binary sort as it throws up several
spikes from each bulb. Its flowers
are more graceful and it is more likely
to bloom. The best tulips for forcing
are the early single varieties. The
best narcissus is the golden yellow sort,
with cup of creamy white. Do not
bring these bulbs to the window until
they have made strong root growth, or
your hopes for Christmas flowers will
be doomed to disappointment. Do not
bring the bulbs into the warmth and
light of the room in which they are to
grow until the soil in the pot is well
filled with roots. Watch your bulbs
we'll and keep the soil moist, but never
wet. When you bring them out of
the dark do not place them in too
warm a room, and when they bloom

AN uP-To-DATE YOUNG LADY.

A big and kindly policeman had
little tot by the hand, lnd he was fol-
lowed by crowd which pestered him
with suggestions until he more than
once showed signs Of losing his natur-
ally good temper.
Some one had told him that the tiny
little girl who toddled by his side was
lost, and a dozen or more knew that
her home lay in as many different d.
rections.
To all his questions the little one
would only reply
Z "Me's hungry; me want something
to eat"
The bluecoat urged the baby girl to
tell him where she lived, and then
mamma would give her her dinner, but
she only dragged at his big rough
hand, drawing him to the corner of the
street, where there was a cake shop.
When they reached this the kind
hearted fellow took her in and bought
her plenty to eat out of his own pocket.
Then he again asked her where she
lived, but she still cried
MES thirsty; me wants a dink."
Back again the whole length of the
street went the pair, followed by the
crowd, until at another corner they
reached soda water fountain, and
there the little lost child was re-
called with cooling drink.
Then as the policeman, failing to
find any one who could tell him where
the child lived, was about to march her
to the police station, the little tot
smiled up into his eyes and said
Mes seepy now. Doodby. Me dom
home"
She slipped into doorway which
they had passed dozen times, shout
Mamma! mamma! Mes been
for nice walk wiz real live great
big cop!"
And the crowd cried, docs your
mother know yer out?" to the police
man.

The game of life.

This life is like game of cards,
Which mortals have to learn;
Each shuffies, cuts, and deals the pack,
And each a trump doth turn.
Some bring high card to the top,
And some do bring low;
Some hold a hand quite full of trumps,
And some but few can show.
In playing, some throw out their
trumps,
Their winning cards to save
Some play the king, some play the deuce,
But many play the knave;
Some play for money, some for love,
Some play for worldly fame;
But not until all hands are played
Can any count his game.
When hearts are trumps we play fol
love,
And pleasure rules the hour;
No thought of sorrow checks our joys
In beauty's rosy bower
We laugh, we dance, sweet verses write,
Our cards at random play,
And while the heart remains on top
Our life's holiday, :.
When diamonds chance to rule the pack
The players stake their gold,
And heavy sums are lost and won
By players young and old.
Each one, intent upon the game,
Doth watch with eager eye
That he may see his neighbours cards
And beat him on the sly.
When clubs are trumps, look out for wal
On ocean and on land;
For awful deeds of blood are done
When clubs are held in hand.
Then lives are staked instead of gold,
And dogs of war are freed;
And sad it is for any land
When clubs are in the lead.
Last game of all is when the spade
Is turned by hand of time,
He waits the end of players games
In every age and cline;
No matter how much each one wis
Or how much each one saves
The spade will reckon up the game
And dig the pllyers' graves.
