nation of the Empress Elizabeth and

tions have taken place at Trieste where

Prison for Life.
New York, Sept 13.-A dispatch to
the World from Geneva says
The life Imprisonment with solitary
confinement in store for the Austrian
empress assassin is declared by those
acquainted with Swiss prisons to be
vastly worse than death.
A correspondent who recently visited
the chief prison of the canton of Vaud
where the assassin will be confined de-
scribes as sad indeed the result of
the solitary life imprisonment. One man
whom he saw there, the perpetrator of
a series of murders in the mountains
had been in the same cell for Is years
with the result that he completely lost
his reason The governor of the prison
confessed that in view OF this and other
similar cases, his views of capital pun
ishment had undergone a complete
change and that he was now strongly
in favor of the death penalty.
Mr.. Ridgely, the American consul
here, was informed by a cabinet officer
that much as it would please the Ge-
neva authorities to send the assassin
to Austria for trial it cannot be done
under the constitution. Had the crime
been committed in the private apart
ment of the empress instead of on the
public street, eXtradition would have
been possible.

has from its Manila correspond
ent the following description OF
the seizure of Guahan: The Char.
lesion took position in leasy
range of Fort Santa Cruz, which
is supposed to guard the entrance
to San Luis, and on which the
Spanish flag was flying. The
Charleston fred a dozen blank
shots at the rather dilapidated
fortress. The Spanish flag still
flew; there was absolutely no re-
spouse from the fort. So Captain
Glass concluded to await develop
ments. In the afternoon two
Spanish officers, in full uniform,
were towed out to the Charleston.
Governor Marina presents his
compliments" they said to Cap
tain Glass, bowling and scraping.
He thanks you for your salute.
He is very sorry he could not re-
turn it, but, unfortunately, we
have no powder"
The situation was explained to
them and very gently they were
made prisoners. Never before
were men so astonished. Then
Captain Glass sent a message to
the Governor, ordering him to
come aboard the Charleston. The
Governor, equally ignorant what
was going on, sent back this
courteous MESSAGE:
Governor Marina presents his
compliments and regrets that he
cannot accept the polite invitation
to visit the Charleston. But the
laws of Spain forbid him to set
foot off the islands for an instant.
He will be very glad to see Cap,
tain Glass at the Governors resi-
dence at 10 a. m. tomorrow"
Captain Glass did not accept the
invitation in person. Early the
next morning he sent ashore a
Lieutenant and a small force of
marines. The Lieutenant an.
nounced GLASS; ultimatum to the
astonished man, that he must sur
render in half an hour or the
town would DO bombarded.
AS soon as the Governor
recovered his equanimity he
promptly surrendered. In the
afternoon a large force WAS land
ed. A few Spanish sailors were
dlsarmed and made prisoners.
The United States marines and
bluejsckets formed around the
staff from which SPANS flag had
been hauled down and formally
the United States took possession
of the islands. The simple cere-
mony was made more impressive
by the joy of tao natives, who
thus unexpectedly found them
selves free. IAe native soldiers
tore the buttoos from their Span
ish uniforms and cheered the Am,

LITTLE LOVERS.

Wee little lovers, aged six and ten.
Aping the manners OF women and meA,
he 30 ardent and she SO shy
Only when somebody else is by.
When they re alone, her shyness flies,
Cupid mounts quickly his throne in her eyes;
When they re alone, this bright haired miss
Gives her wee lover u soft, warm kiss.
Yet q sad little coquette is she:
Every attention she welcomes with glee,
Many a heart has she filed with pain,
Constant che finds it so hard to remain;
Lovers will come to her feet to WOO.
What is the dear little damsel to do?
Is it her fault that they love her so?
L It her fault that they won't take "No?"
Long be the lives of this little pair,
Sweetheart and maiden so bonny and fair!
Long may they live while their loves intwine,
Each with the other, like stems of the vinei
Or will this baby love droop and die
Ere many years have flown hurrying by?
Then will they deem it but childish fun,
Feeling no smart since no harm has been
DONE.
