Rev. E. M. Poteat former pastor of the Calvary Baptist church, has sold his residence at 424 George street to Eliza A. Nichols of 30 Park street. The price paid by Mrs. Nichols was about $7,O00.
 It was stated yesterday that the com mittee of Calvary Baptist church now has under consideration the Rev. pr. Watson, pastor of the Arlington Mass, Baptist church. Arlington is a suburb of Boston, and the Baptist church is one of great influence, being attended by many wealthy and cultured people. Dr. Watson, who is about forty years of age, preached at the Calvary Baptist church a week ago last Sunday at both morning and evening services. He is a very eloquent preacher.
 New Haven members of the Knights of Columbus are making preparations to attend the annual state convention to be held at Waterbury February z. On the evening of the convention a re- ception will be given by the Waterbury councils. Over two hundred and fifty delegates will attend from New Haven and other cities.
 It was an interesting entertainment that was given at the Hyperion yester- day afternoon, consisting of living and war pictures and war scenes, and the inmates of the New Haven orphan asy- lum, the St. Francis orphan asylum and the inmates of the County home were invited guests at the entertain ment. There were nearly one hundred of the former, about seventy-five of the St. Francis and fifty-one from the County home. c. F. Southard was one of the committee which got up sub scriptions to have the little people en- tertained. Mayor Farnsworth was present and made a speech. The com- mittee are nearly sixty dollars in debt by providing the entertainment and the friends of the little ones will probably contribute to the making up of the de- ficiency.

An Annapolis oysterman who has had considerable experience says it has been mystery to him and others in the business why longer can catch a boatload of oysters on an oysterrork one day, the next day catch nothing but shells, and the following day on the same oyster ground gather good supply of oysters. Continuing he said After having taken with rakes one hundred and seven bushels in two days we returned to the same grounds, hav- ing 'buoyed' the exact place Much to our surprise. we found nothing but shells, though the oysters were plenti- full when we left. A day later we again visited our buoy. and with tongs caught nearly as many oysters as on the first day. Baltimore Sun

Is Peace In Sight?

Madrid, July 25.-The correspond
ent here OF the Associated Press ha:
had conversation with a person Occu
pying a high position in the queen re-
gents household and whose duties
bring him daily into intimate rela-
tions with her majesty.
He said the quarrel between Spain
and the United States was much cas-
ier of adjustment than is generally
believed. The queen regent, he con-
tinued, naturally endeavored to avoid
war and also she desires an honorable
ending Of it. She is quite alive to the
force of public opinion and holds
strictly TO the constitutional laws Of
the nation. 1t is an error to suppose
the queen regent is under pressure OF
the present or any government or that
sue Is regardless or puollc opinion
when it is in consOnance with the true
interests of the Spanish people. The
official quoted, then added an impor-
tant statement, saying:
"The present government will not
initiate peace, but modified cabinet
headed by GamazN, minister of public
instruction, will conclude the negotia'
tions and then retire, and General Po'
lavieja, with a combination including
Senior Silvela and General Campos
will reorganize the cabinet.
Everybody considers that Spaiu
should treat directly with the Amer
leans, whose practical good sense will
prevail"

To Go Slow In Porto Rico.

Washington, July 25.-The War de-
partment had not heard from General
Miles up to this afternoon, but dis
patches from him are expected to-
night. Officials at the department
say that Miles, in all probability,
landed on the Porto Rican coast
yesterday. Unless he should have
unexpected good fortune in getting
possession of cable station immed-
lately, it will be necessary for him to
communicate with the department
by sending a vessel back to st. Thomas
or Cape Haytien.
Porto Rico has been for several
days without communication with
the outside world. A cable loop ex.
tends from St. Thomas to north side
Of the island, and another loop reaches
the south coast OF Porto Rico. Just
before the campaign against the island

From John TrltIe.

In front Of Santiago de Cuba, July
9, 1898. Brother Fred-I suppose you
know ere this that we have had
fight. We left Tampa on board the
transport Leona on June IA and land.
ed on Cuban soil June q under protec.
tion Of the guns of the American
feet. On the oath We started for
Baiquir::, absut sixteen miles distant.
The men threw away their blankets.
The road we marched over was lined
with poncos. The Rough Riders
were ambushed about 10 o'clock q. m.
We made a forced march and arrived
on the scene after the skirmish was
over. We went into camp, buried our
dead and sent our wounded back to
the landing place. We stayed there
four days and then moved . couple Of
miles nearer. Just now there is Q
truce. We are strengthening our
lines and can see the Spanish in their
camps.
On June 30 we broke camp and
marched to within six miles OF the
city. On the morning Of July IA our
light artillery bombarded q battery
planted on the hill between our camp
and the city! They opened fire on US
and two shots hit our gun and killed
one and wounded three. We were
then ordered to march out and con-
meet our brigade with the Seventh
Cavalry Rough Riders under COM
nand of Colonel Wood with General
Lawton's brigade, which was on the
extreme right of the line about three
mics from the position we we're then
in. The balloons Of the signal corps
were up taking observations and
passed over our heads, held by cable,
and we soon got into the swim. We
moved up TO the right and deployed
and marched up against their block
houses and rife pits, The brush and
timber was very thick and they had
sharpshoOters in the trees, which ac-
counts for the loss Of so many Of our
officers. We drew the Spanish from
their entrenchments and toward the
city and that night slept 10 their rifle
pits and our line extended In all di-
rections. Our loss was heavy. Our
troop had three killed aud eight
wounded. l am all right and never
