The spanish commissioners listened at
tentively, though not without some evil
dences of impa,ience and surprise at the
financial suggestions in the American pre-
sentiment. and finally asked until Friday to
consult the Madrid government and make
reply.
Adjournment was then taken to that day.
After the conference was dissolved. the
Spanish commissioners expressed the opin-

MADRID, Oct 3i--The news that the
SPANISH peace commissioners at Paris had
referred to the government the formal de-

Madrid. The strongest feeling prevails that
the government should protest energetic

The prodigal son may return, but
how about the prodigal daughter? As
far as the world is concerned there is
no mercy for the prodigal daughter.
The son may wallow in the mire and
filth of pollution, feed upon the husks
of sin and infamy. and if he will come
back in becoming raiment, and knock
at the door of society, he is eagerly
receiyed within its portals; marriage

A Gigantic undertakinp-

Undismayed by their experience in
the Suez and Panama enterprises, the
French are undertaking to build an.
other great canal. They have now
determined to connect the Bay of Bis
cay with the Mediterran by a
canal over 400 miles long, from Ia
to 2l5 feet wide and from %. to 81
feet deep, and with widened passing
places every eight miles. There will
be twenty-five locks, each $50 feet in
length and so feet in width. The
cost is calculated at S1Oo, ,0oo, 600. 1t
is, however, safe to say that it will
be rauch more. 1t is claimed by its
promoters that besides greatly expedit-
ing commerce, this waterway will be
of vast political significance. If it
could only be kept open in war, Glib
raltar, the strongest fort in the world,
would be rendered useless, and France,
instead of England, would hold the
"Key to the Mediterranean"

Coffee ans Sugar Imports.

Senator Thurston has gone over to

because of the alarm for the interests
of the Nebraska sugar beet producers.
This is entirely groundiess. If all rh.
land in Hawaii was devoted to sugar
culture it could produce but q very
small proportion Of what the United
States consumes. At present the
total production of sugar in the archi-
pelago is less than $4,000, 900, where
the United States buys over $I01 200,
900. There is every reason for, ex
pecting that the culture Of sugar will
give way to that Of coffee, to which the
islands are srlendidly adapted. and
which is nsoh more profitable than

While there Is q mad rush to the

There is hardly product Of this
county but will be in demand in
Alaska the next two or three years,
and especially will food products be
needed, though they will necessarily
have to be put in shape that they can
be transported at the least possible

tables cannot be sent north in their
natural state, but must be reduced in
weight either by evaporation or can

For the next few years Alaska will
require large quantities of vegetables,
such as can be carried oyer the NOM

that makes speciality of preparing
such articles will find little Klondike

Remains of Prehistoric Animals Discovered
In Eng,acd.
From time to time the peet beds Of
Newbury have yielded abundant re
mains of prehistoric animals which il
primeval ages roamed along the Ken
net valley, when the physical condi
tions obtaining in western Europe were
altogether different from those which
now prevail-before, in fact, the present
insular position was brought about. In
these peat beds, according to q London
dispatch, have been found the remains
OF the colossal mammoth, including the
portion of a tusk which, when entire
must have been ten to twelve feet in
length, together with the bones. teeth
or horns of other animals which have
utterly disappeared from the face OF
the earth. The drainage works which
are now being carried on in the to,

lower layers of the peat, from which it
is evident that the prehistoric inhabit-

the knives being beautifully Clipped
