CAN'T AGREE
The Latin Greater Republic Scheme
Fails Utterly

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Nov. 3O.-The
attempt to effect a coalition between the
states of Nicaragua, Honduras and Saliva
dor, to be conducted under common ad-
ministration and known as the United
States of Central America, has failed COM
pletely.
The federal organizers today formally de-
clared the union dissolved, the three states
resuming respectively absolute sovereignty.
The collapse is due to the failure Of the
troops of Honduras action in behalf of the
federal organizers to suppress the outbreak
in Salvador against the proposed federation
and to force Salvador into the union.
The prospects are peaceful.

Washing Beddinr.

It saves a great deal Of trouble to
wash up the heavy bedding by degrees
instead Of doing it all on one day in
the season set aside for it. There are
always some cOUnterpanes and some
blankets that are ready TO be washed
and put away for the season as early
as March. At this season the washings
are usually light, and one or two Of
these pieces can be washed on Monday
every week without interfering with
the other washing. a windy day is not
a good day to dry blankets, but blan-
kets can be dried in a well-Yentilated
kitchen, and dried better and more
quickly than any other way. 1t shrinls
them to expose them TO the suns Of
summer or the frosts Of winter. The
only objection TO drying blankets in
the house is the "stuffy," unpleasant
OdOr that may be acquired. This is
Obviated by ventiIating the room thor
Oughly while they are drying. The
night, when there is no one in the room,
is the proper time to use the kitchen
as a drying-roOm. It may then be thor
oughly ventilated, and the air be made
as fresh and pure as the air outdoors

The Pirate sEorgan Forces Monks
and EuaH to Place Sealing LAD
ders Against the walls.

The buccaneers found Porto BeI1o
hard nut to crack; they landed and
marched upon the town, which was de-
Tended by several forts or castles. Even
when one Of these had been captured by
assault and blown up with al it's gar
rison, who had been taken prisoners,
stu the town was not inundated
The governor vowed he would never sur
render, but would die fighting to the
last. In vain the pirates made desper-
ate efforts to capture the principal fort,
and Morgan began to despair. The gar
r1sOn was strong and well commanded,
and whenever the pirates attempted to
scale the wall they were shot down, or
hre-pOts full Of powder mixed with
stones and other missiles were hurled
upon them.
At last the willy Morgan had an idea.
BE set his men TO work to make some
ladders long enough to reach the top
Of the walls and wide enough to al
low three or four TO go up abreast. II
he could get these properly set up, his
crew Of desperate tigercats could make
a combined rush, and get over the walls.
But it was not Morgan's plan that these
men should lose their lives in getting
up these ladders He had captured
some converts in the suburbs Of the
town, with a number Of nuns and
monks, and he now ordered these poor
creatures, the women as well as the
men, TO place the ladders against the
walls, believing that the Spanish gov
ernOr would not allow his soldiers 10
fire upon these innocent persons.
But the governor was determined to
defend the town, no matter who had to
suffer, and so the soldiers fired at the
nunsand the monks Just as though they.
were buccaneers or any other enemies.
The poor creatures cried out in terror
and begged their friends not to fire
upon them, but the soldiers obeyed the
command Of the governor, and the
pirates were close behind them, and
threatened them with their pistols, and
so the poor nuns and monks had to
press forward, many Of them dropping
dead or wounded. They continued their
work until the ladders were placed and
then over The wall swent the pirates with
yells and hOyyls Of triumph, and it was
not long after that the town was taken.
The brave governor died fighting in the
principal fort, and the citizens and SOL
diers all united in the most vigorous de-
Tense, but it was useless.-Frank r.
