while to read the document.
AL discussion is based upon the
idea that the Gar has proposed a
general disarmament and an i'm
mediate realization Of the poets
dream OF "a federation OF the
world" AS a matter of fact the
Car has not proposed any such
thing, If he had he would invite
the tate Of his ancestor Paul, who
was dethroned as a maniac for
suggesting as a means OF ending
the trightful wars Of the last CEN
tury that call the sovereigns of
Europe repair to a certain spot
and fight in single combat, bring
ing with them as seconds and es-
quires their most enlightened
ministers and able generals"
What Nicolas really asks is that
the powers OF the earth come
together to discuss ways and means
ior--
L. "rhe maintenance Of general
peace.
4. "The possible reduction OF
the excessive armaments which
weigh upon all nations"
This is not Utopian. There is
no suspicion of the UtoDian about
it. AS matter Of plain fact, unless
the European powers do get to
Pethsr and come to some under
standing on exactly these matters,
Europe cannot long escape DESC
lation and ruin similar to that un-
utterable woe @hich the century
Of religious war brought upon
Germany. And every statesman
in Europe knows that this is true.
The Gar naturally took the in
itiative in a course that is the only
alternative to a cataclysmic up
heaval in the form OF cival wars or
OF international wars, or Of both.
The sensible invitation was worthy
OF the young man who in his con-
dolences upon the death OF Glad
stone expressed his especial ad-
miration for his humane and be-
nevolent and democratic political
creed.

Why Does AIEsr Praise shafter?
There is one person whom Mr..
Alger speaks of in terms specially
eulogistic; and that man is General
Shafter. 1t is matter OF common
report that General Shafter owed
his appointment to Mr.. Alger; will
Mr. Alger deny it7 II is also mat
ter of common report that this
general, whose ''insistenCe" and
"impetuosity" Mr.. Alger praises,
spent the time when our troops
were taking FL Caney and charg-
ing the batteries on San Juan hill,
in lying under the awning on the
deck of the steamer OliVette. Will
Mr.. Alger, or will General Shafter
say that this report has no founda-
tion1 And will they also deny
that General Shafter, after those
battles in which he did not take
part, telegraphed to the War De-
partment that he was beaten, and
wished to retreat7 And is,
finally, Secretary Alger aware
that General Wheeler, whom he
obliquely criticises, was as sick
as General Shaiter on the day Of
the battle before Santiago; but
that, instead of remaining in the
rear, he caused himself to be car
ried forward on litter; that from
the litter he caused himself to be
lifted on horse, and that on that
horse he stayed during the whole
engagement, and was the life and
inspiration ofthe battls1 1t is true
that General Wheeler weighs two
or three times less than General
Shat er. but why was Gen. Shaiter
sent to Cuba as Commander-in
Chief of the armY1

Daily M.ws-London, Aug. u.

Daffy NSwS-London, Aug. II.
The bombardment of Manila by
Admiral Dewey was conducted, as
might have been assumed, in the most
humane and considerate fashion. The
city was spared, and only the trenches
were shelled. The town itself escaped.
There is great difference, and Admiral
Dewey deserves to be congratulated
upon his consideration for the lives OF
non co nbatants. Between 1882 and
1885 there was no surer method of
drawing Mr.. Gladstone than by making
an allusion TO the "bombardment OF
Alexandria" "The forts OF Alexan.
dria," MIR. Gladstone used to say;
Alexandria was never bombarded."
The names ofthe Commissioners, whose
duty it will be to determine the fate of
Cuban affairs, have been communicated
to the Press. They are General Wade,
General Butler, and Admiral Sampson.
The Commissioners at Puerto Pico are
General Brooke, General Gordon, and
Admiral Schley. Their functions are
more digniied than important. Before
the ink was dry on the official paper the
troops had begun to be removed from a
trying and unhealthy climate. The real
difficulty will come when the future Of
the Philippines has to be considered.
There is sharp division Of opinion upon
this subject IN the United States. Some
say that the Philippines are necessary
to the salvation OF the Union. Others
protest against the foundation of Asiatic
Colonies with the inevitable enlarge
ment Of administrative responsibility.
Spain is at the mercy of the United
States, who can annex the Philippines
il they choose, So far as British inter
ests are concerned, we have nothing to
fear from the annexation. "
Several Senators have refused the Pres
ident's request that they would serve on
the Peace Commission. Their excuse
is plausible enough, because the Senate
ought to pronounce an absolutely iude
pendent opinion. But we cannot regard
the symptom as favorable. The Senate
are "kittle cattle" and they do not love
l the present Administration at Washing
ton.

Tinss-London. August 6.

Not long ago the gravest fears ere
expressed lest any Spanish ministry
making peace should plunge the country
into civil war Senior Sagasta's delays
were explair ed very pIauslbly by the
necessity for ample preparation OF
the public mind for the inevitable
surrender. But now that the surrender
has been made, the alarming thing is
that the public do not seem to care in
the least. Not only is the expected
storm OF patriotic grief and wounded
pride altogether absent, but there is not
even such moderate display of feeling
as the occasion seems to demand. The
organ Of Senior Silvela is shocked by the
total apathy oi the nation, by the phil
osophic calm with which the educated
classes explain that after all the loss OF
the colonies is a blessing in disguise,
and by the fatalism with which the mass
Of the people accept the accomplished
fact. asking only that they may not be
troubled with the details. 30 far as can
be gathered, the Conservatives are
called upon to find a remedy Tor this
national torpor, though what the remedy
is to be is not made very clear. It may
be surmised that, at all events, the eff.
cacy OF partisan attack upon the men
in power finds place among the ideas
OF this critic. That seems about as far
as public spirit can go in Spain just at
present. 1t does not appear that there
is any real danger OF either a Carlist or
a Republican outbreak. The Country
has reached a stage of disgust at which
the ordinary quack remedies fail to
excite amp interest

modification of the old Punch and
Judy show, by which living heads
(made up as negroes) were attached to

present very bewildering effect.
The flower girls sold their buds the

A SAD CASE.
One That Appeals to All Charita-
h1e Persons.

There is now in this city a deeply af-
flicted widow mother who is trying to
reach her father in Seattle. Her name
is Mrs Ellis, and she is temporarily
stopping at the State House Hotel.
few months ago Mrs. Ellis lost her
husband and three children in the East,
all dying of diphtheria. She had money
enough to pay her fare to Seattle,
where her father resides, and came to
the coast by way of the Southern
route.
A few weeks ago her only remaining
child, some three or four years of age,
fell from a car window and its skull
was fractured. Mrs Ellis had to stop
over in a strange city, and it cost her
every cent she had for doctors serv-
ices. The little ones life was saved,
but it is still suffering from its terri
BILE injury and sadly in need of care
and comforts that its mother is una
BILE to provide.
BY the aid of charitable people Mrs.
Ellis was able to reach Sacramento,
where she has been for three days. For
one day, she says, she and her suffer-
ing child went without food until some
one discovered their condition and
helped them in a small way.
Mrs. Ellis telegraphed from here to
her father TO see if he could help her,
but she has received no reply and fears
ne is sick, as his health was poor when
she last heard from him. She desires
to leave for the north tonight, but Is
absolutely without means.
Who will come forward to-day and
assist her and her injured child? The
accident to the little one was published
N the papers at the time it occurred,
and for several days it was feared 1t
could not live. Even now only the
best of care will enable it to outgroW
it's injury.
1t should not be a difficult matter for
some person or charitable organiza-
ton to raise the money necessary to
enable Mrs. Ellis to reach her father.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The Orpheum was packed last night
in every part. The entertainment was
by Gilmore & Leonard's troupe in the
farce and extravaganza "Hogan's AL
ley" The piece is fifty described by its
title. II is a fair upset upon the stage
of the outrageously silly and utterly
nonsensical and coarse cartoons of
East Side New York life, as caricatured
and exaggerated in certain yellow
journal supplements of the great me-
tropolis. The company fits into the
text well enough in fact, one might
say without offense that il was drawn
from the east side, though that exag-
geration '"The Yellow Kid" is really un-
known even to low life in that quarter
The people in the piece make up so
cleverly to the lines Of the coarse and
The record-union., 1898-10-29

nonsensical characters born of the car
icaturist's lurid fancy that, indeed, 1t
would be complimentary to them TO
say that they appear to Ee familiar
with Hogan alleys. There is good
deal of speciality business in the piece,
but no noteworthy skill in that line IS
manifest. The audience, however,
laughed heartily, and even went SO
far as to insist upon repetitions OF some
fearfully poor attempts at vocal music.
The two Irish grotesques and the lad
who personated the yellow Kid are
the most capable people of the COM
pany. A matinee this afternoon ana

Soldiers Sleeping Under Fire.

Il suppose some people will shrug their
shoulders" said a soldier who was in the
three days battle of San Juan Hill,
when / say that it is a common thing
for soldiers to go sound asleep under fire,
when they are not permitted to return
the fire, but must lie quiet 1t isn't
bravery or recklessness, but the result
of intense excitement on the brain" In
the same way many men appear utterly
Indifferent to dangerous disorders of the
stomach that Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters would promptly cure. This remedy
will make them sleep like a top" as
the saying goes. II will give them nerves
of iron. 1t will overcome distressing

and strength to the kidneys.

Monument to Johl A, Kay.

In the course of the lecture given by Reuben
Haines, ESQ, of Elkton, on Friday night
last week, at the Rising Sun Normal school
he mentioned the fact of John A. Kay being
educated in the school and thought it would
be an appropriate thing to erect monument
in honor of him, he being the only son Of
Cecil county who lost his life on the battle
ship "Maine"
At the meeting of the board OF directors of
Brookvew Cemetery on last Monday night
the matter was talked over and the suggestion
was broadened into reality. The company
decided to donate $50 to the fund and Mr..
Kay will add considerable to the lot, max
ing it a fine large tract The matter is being
worked up thoroughly, and will be developed
into county matter, and every one will have
chance to contribute much or little to the
fund; as he wishes. The monument will be
erected in the new cemetery, overlooking a
magnificent scope of country
1t will not only serve as a memoy to him
who lost his life in the ll-fated ship but will
serve as matter of history for generations.
