and In admiration OF their courage he has di-
rected me TO say to their c0untrymen that they
are alive and with the exception of two of the
men who are slightly hurt. they are uniniured.
They are now prisoners OF war and are being
well cared for and will be treated with every
consideration
Admiral Sampson expressed his
thanks for the kindness and gener-
osity Of Admiral Ccrvera and invited
Capt Oviedo to his cabin, where they

WHY THE COOK FELT HURT.
Her Employer Was Not Laid Up froae
OvereatinR and She Felt
SliEhted.

A lady had cook who gave her every sat-
lsfaction and she was under the impression
that the cook was equally satisfied with her
place. But one morning, to the lady's in
tense surprise, the cook gave her the usual
months notice.
What do you want to leave for, Jane!'r
asked her mistress. 81 am very much
pleased with you, and | thought you were
quite comfortable here"
"Yes, mum, I'm comfortable enough in .
way, but"
The cook hesitated and fidgeted about.
"But what" queried her mistress.
"Well num-" she blurted out, "the fact
is the master doesn't seem to 'preciate my
cookery, and l can't stop in place where
my, efforts to please are wasted; so I'd
rather go, mum"
'But what makes you think that your
master doesn't appreciate your cookery?
Has he ever complained to you" asked the
mo, mum, but my late master was al
ways being laid up through overeating-he
said he couldn't help doing so because. my
cookery was SO delicious-but master here
hasn' t been laid up once all the three months
I've been with you, and that's just. what
bothers me SO, ,mum!"-Boston Traveller.

FOR A BLooDLEss VICTORY.
President Mckinley Seeks Triumphant
Peace with As Little Sacrifice of HUI
man Life as Possible

WAsnSsToS, June 7.-Since the war
between the United States and Spain
has progressed so far without the loss
of many lives on either side. President
Mckinley is more than ever convinced
that we will come very near achieving
bloodless victory. He stated yester-
day that he expected the six Spanish
ships in the harbor of Santiago to be
taken without sacrificing great
amount of American blood, and that
Blanco would doubtless be instructed
by his government to surrender and
evacnate Cuba by the time an Amer
lean army of occupation had in
vaded Porto Rico. On most excellent
authority 1t can be stated that the
president is determined upon the rapid
war from this time forward, but that
he is cherishing the hope that the
moral effect of our great strength will
induce Spain. in her hopeless and
almost pitiable condition, to throw
her "honor" to the winds and do the
sensible thing-give up.
