NEW THEORY ON MAINE.
Cuban Refugee Thinks Design
Was Simply to Cripple The
Cruiser.

J. n. Casanova, Cuban Postal
Commissioner under the Cleve-
land ministration, leading
citizen of Pennsylvania but tenn
porarily residing in New York
City, has expressed the opinion
that it was almost a certainty
that there would be a war be
tWeer the United States and
Spain that with Spain war was
necessary i'll orier to have all
excuse for the loss of Cuba
that Cuban independence, won
by the Insurgents, would be
considered disgrace by Spain
that the DeLome incident was
in line with Spain's policy to
bring about war, as was also
the blowing up of the Maine.
Concerning the Maine, he
makes the Statement that the
Spanish officers IN Havana did
not intend to destroy the vessel
nor take life, but that a torpedo
was exploded in the hope that
the act would be deemed sufh-
cient to bring about a declara-
ton of war by the United States;
that in the explosion of the tor
pedo the conclusion caused the
bursting of a magazine on the
Maine. VIII ch wrought the com>
plete destruction of the ship and
the terrible loss of life.
Mr.. Casanova is a native Gu
ban, and was compelled to leave
the Island on account of his &C
tivity in behalf of Cuban inde>
pendence. The Casanova fam>
lily have lost hundreds of thou
sands OF dollars on account of
the present insurrection, posses
sing large property interests in
Cuba. He thinks that if the
Maine incident does not provoke
this country to war, the Span
1ards will cause the assassina
ton of Consul General Lee or
commit some other act that will
bring on bar.

UNITED STATES.
1t is Superior to That of Spain
in Almost Every Type of
Vessel.

There is but one type OF ships
i'll which the Spanish navy is
stronger than the American, that
known as the armored cruiser
class of vessels, having high
speed and a protective belt
around the vitals. The New
York and Brooklyn are vessels
of this class, in fact, the only
ones we have. Of battleships
Spain has one first class to FIVE
first class in service belonging to
this country.
Spain carries on the naval list
two second class battleships, but
each in antiquated. The Amer
ican navy has one second, class,
the Texas. The Maine was of
the same type. Spain has nine
formidable armored cruisers.
She has, however, no coast de-
fense vessels, like the Puritan,
Terror, Miantonomah, Amphri-
trite, Monterey and Ionadnock.
Any of these ships are estimated
to be equal to the best armored
cruiser ever launched. Nine of
hcers out of ten would rather
fight On the Puritan than the
Texas or the Brooklyn.
In torpedo boats Spain has
more than this Government, but
they are not more speedy or for
midable. Of the protected crui-
ser class she has seven, not one
of which equals our cruisers.
Of the smaller cruisers she has
less than we have, and not one
of them equals the smallest we
have OF the gunboat class she
has three times as many as we
have, yet they are all old and of
little fighting value. Compared,
therefore, with the American
navy, Spain makes poor snow

Something About an Old War
in Which the Place Was
Taken.

During the seven wears war"
IG756 1863 between England
and France, says the Baltimore
Sun, Spain became Involved by
making All ag: cement to assi.i
the latter power. Charles IL
of Spain, was alarmed at t
great extension of England S
maritime and colonial seen
dency.-Within a few years he
had seen the French deprived of
Canada and the vast region West
of the Alleghanies. Give had
gained Bengal by the battle of
Plassy, and Coote's victory in
1860 at Wapdewash, destroyed
what was left Of French power
in India.-The naval victories
at Lagos and Quiberou Bay, es-
tablished England's supremacy
at sea. On the continent of
Europe, England, allied with
Prussia against Austria, Russia,
France and various German
Princes, was a disturbing fac
tor.
Hoping to check the growth
of English power, Charles III,
in 1861, by secret treaty, III
dertook to assist France, hr-
with disastrous results for SPAN.
War began in January, 1907.
and seven months later Havana
had been taken by the English
under Lord Albemarle, but not
without much difficulty. A
fleet of over 200 vessels, with an
army of I4.o4I men, began
operations on June 9th of the
year mentioned, having opposed
to them a Spanish army OF 27,-
6Io men. The defense is des
cribed by historians as exceed
ingly obstinate" the spanish be-
ing determined fighters, espe-
cially when acting on the de
fensiye. The Moro Castle was
taken on July goth, after nearly
two months had elapsed, and it
was not till two weeks later, on
August 14tE. that the city capi>
tulated. The captors divided
among themselves, it is related,
spoil to the value of S3,o8o,ooo.
The city and adjacent country
remained an English possession
till February, 1863, when, by
the treaty of Parish, they were
restored to Spain.

PARTY LINES
SWEPT AWAY.
Congress With One Voice Meets
The First Call of the Presi-
dent For Funds.
S5O,OOO,OOO AT ONCE
MADE AVAILABLE.
Many Memb bers Who Were
Paired With Absent Col
leagues. Took the Re,
sponsibiiity to Break
Their Pairs.

In spirit of patriotism, with
eloquent words ringing in their
ears, every member of the House
of Representatives Tuesday re
sponded to the Presidents first
call to meet the Spanish situa-
ton by casting his vote tor a
bill placing in President Me-
Kinley's hands fifty million of
dollars to be expended at his dis
cretion for national defense.
Party lines were swept away,
and with a unanimous voice
Congress voted its confidence in
the administration. Many mem
bers who were paired with abb
sent colleagues, took the respon>
sibility of breaking their pairs,
an unprecedented thing in leg
islative annals, in order that
they might go on record in sup
port of this vast appropriation
to maintain the dignity and
honor of their country. Speak
er Reed, who, as the presiding
officer, seldom votes except in a
case of tie, had his name called
and voted in his capacity as a
representative. The scene Of
enthusiasm which greeted the
announcement of the vote, ayes
3II, nays none, has seldom been
paralleled in the House. All
day long the galleries were
jammed with enthusiastic spec
tators, appla',ding the patriot
ism of the words of eloque,:ce
which were uttered by the mem =
bers on the floor. The speeches
were all brief. Although four
hours were allowed for debate,
SO great was the pressure for
time that no member was given
more than five minutes, and
most of them had to content
themselves with a beggardly
fraction of a minute. In all
ffty~nine speeches were made.
With one acclaim, members
from the North and South, the
East and West, the State and
territories, battle SCARED veter
ans of the Onion and the Con-
federate armies, all joined in
proclalming their support Of
the country's Chief Magistrate
in the face Of a possible foreign
war.

cation from Minister Woodford
announcing Spain's withdrawal
for the recall of General Lee
states that the request was never
put in the shape of a demand,
but that it was merely a sug
gestion on the part of Spain, and
that when it was found that it
was not pleasantly received by
this country she promptly res
ceded, appears pacific on the
part of Spain. The refusal OF
the administration to recognize
what is termed the mild pro
test" of the Spanish representa-
tive, Senor De Bose, agal nst
sending supplies to Cuba in war
ships, is considered the most i'm
portant phase of the situation.
The administration takes the
ground that relief vessels are
not fighting vessels, yet the fact
stands that Spain's request is re-
fused 1t now remains to be
seen if Spain will recognize this
as an unfriendly act. If SO then
war appears imminent.

Government for the recall from
Havana of Consul General Lee
and its demand that the Ameri-

designated to convey supplies to
Cuba for the relief. of s-.ferers
there, should be replaced by
merchant vessels, were promptly
and vigorously met by President
Mckinley. who authorized the
announcement that he would
not consider the recall oc Gener-
al Lee for the reason that he has
borne himself throughout the
crisis with Judgment. fidelity and
courage to the Presidents entire
satisfaction, and that as to the
supplies for the relief of the
Cuban people arrangements had
been made to carry a consign-
ment from Key West by one of
the naval vessels most available
for the purpose. The stand OF
the President we'll deserves, as it
has received, the approval of the
country, and that it had its effect
with the Madrid Government is
evident by the announcement
that her request for the recall Of

LEFT TO HIS SWEETHEART
(FrOm the New York Herald J

(From the New York Herald
" hen Mrs. Lucille Morris, of
Omaha. Neb., was very beau
tiful girl Ill her teens she met
young and handsome Chester F..
Allison, of Sedalia. Mo. 1t was
a case of mutual love at first
sight, but, although Chester
wooed and won Lucile's heart,
she would not give him her
hand. He died last fall and left
to the sweetheart of loves young
dream a fortune of $I5o,ooo.
Relatives in Sedalia tried TO
break the will, but the court
has just handed down a decision
sustaining it, and so Mrs. Nor
ris, who is a charming. intcllec>
tual woman, will pass her re-
naming days i'll comfort.
Few women have had such
a strange experience. When
young Allison came with the
love song on his lips in the
sprinstime Of life, Lucille had
pledged her troth to another
Professor l.. Morris. In vain
did Chester plead-The young
girl frankly confessed that she
loved him, but her sense of
honor was so high that she
would not break her engage
ment with the professor.
Allison, under the influence
of her faith and truth, finally
acknowledged that she was right.
So they parted tearfully-she to
contract a loveless marriage, he
to deaden the pain in his heart
in the quest for wealth.
Years swept on, and last sum-
mer these two met again at an
eastern summer resort. She
was free. Three years before a
court had broken the bonds that
united her to Professor Morris.
She was still beautiful. The
gray was in the hair of Allison,
and lines of care scanned his
brow, but he was manly man,
and his heart was still true to
Lucille.
Under the trees he told her
again the old, old story, and it
was arranged that they should
be married in the fall. Before
tie leaves fell he died. His last
thoughts were of his sweetheart,
and in his will he bequeathed
her. Internationally, 10000.

HOW TO LIVE 200 YEARS.
ATTEND TO YOUR OWN
AFFAIRS.
Love Your Neighbors. Be Square
And Honest With Every
thing.

Work eight hours, sleep eight
hours, and play eight hours,
Read papers and books and think
and obserN e-seek knowledge.
Listen to music AS much as you
can.
Never miss a daily bath with
a good rubbing and kneading,
using a rough crash or Turkish
toWeling wash rag.
Don't owe anyone; be entirely
free from debt. Never buy any,
thing unless you have the money
to pay for it as debt of any kind
is calamity and will weaken
any one.
Attend strictly to your own
affairs and don't allow actions of
others to disturb you.
Don't be money mad or crazy
to get rich; don't be idle and
earn all the money you can; be
sure to save some of it every
week and dispose of the rest as
you see fit.
Don't gam ole, speculate, drink
alcoholic beverages o. use tobac-
co, above all don't worry your
mind about others who do all Of
these things. Be broad, tolerant
liberal and always respect the
opinions, beliefs and theories of
others, even If you feel they are
entirely wrong.
Love your neighbors and see
to it that men are fair, honest
and just, and in no way seek to
an advantage over any one. In
other words be square and honest
with everyone.
Under no temptation ever try
persuade others to live and be-
iieve as you do. Nothing so
much havoc in this world and
brings gray hairs and shortens
life so much as for men to turn
reformers.
Every man in the world has
enough to do to reform himself.
No man is perfect.
The divine will has arranged
things all right, so that the
world is governed by the most
perfect law, and if We learn how
to conform to this law and obey
it with hope, cheerfulness and
knowledge and not with doubt
and fear we will not only be
healthy and happy but will be
agreeable to others and reach
the 200 years mark.
Doubt and tear are the most
weakening and disturbing things
in the world, and we must rid
our minds of them if we would
enjoy life and live long.
To sum up, plenty of plain,
simple food which is clean, fresh
and pure, thoroughly and slowly
masticated; plenty of fresh, pure
air and sunshine and plenty of
pure, fresh water internally to
gether with high aims lofty
thinking-pure thinking-will
cause anyone to live a long and
useful life, even if they do not
quite reach 200 years.
Music, travel, amusements,
outdoor sports and quiet rest
when combined with work add
materially to ones health, hap>
piness and longevity and persons
with the most moderate incomes
by exercising economy and
Judgment can enjoy all these
things. Work a little, save a
little and spend the rest On clean
healthful diversions - recreation
and you will get your full share
out of life and a good chance of
living 200 years.
But if you are money mad
crazed with ambition, and rip
and snort and fume and tear and
burn the candle at both ends, it
will be hard work to pull through
to the three score and ten mark.
Think this over.
Learn the philosophy of living.
Be strong aud vigorous.
Don't be weak.
Live 200 years.
