bad CHICKEN AND CAKE.
Concordia Troops Remembered by the
CLONE FoIks.e

The company from Concordia, COM
posed of SO men under command of
Capt. Parsons, had treat last even
ing which the other soldiers did not
enjoy. The food being given out by the
commissary department is good, but it
isn't like home cooking. When the Con-
cordia volunteers left home there was
quite a demonstration made by the cit
liens. Large baskets of food were sent
with the company. They decided to eat
it when they had become thoroughly
hungry for a good home meal.
So last evening at supper every mem
Der of the company was supplied with
a nice supply of fried spring chicken
and a piece of cake. This was the treat
which they enjoyed. In addition they
received the regular camp supper of
potatoes, peas, bread and coffee. In
the large Sibly tents the soldier boys
sat fully enjoying their supper. 1t
meant more to them than the mere
pleasure of partaking of home cook
ing. 1t was sort of remembrance
meeting. They thought of their loved
ones at home. Judging from the sup
ply on hand of fried spring chicken and
the loads of cake, Concordia people
must be very hospitable and patriotic
They gave the volunteer soldiers some
thing which the latter will remember
when the marches are long and the
food is scarce.

RIOT IN MEXICO.
Fourteen Americans Killed But They
Kill Several Spaniards.


Pittsburg, May Sword has been re-
ceived in this city of a horrible mas
sacre of Americans and Spaniards in a
Mexican town as result of bad feel
ings over the Hispania-American war,
in which IA Americans and IL SpaniardS
were killed. Communication is by Jack
Mule, and the writer, former Pitts
burger, states that the authorities have
tried to suppress the facts to save trou-
BILE with the United States.
Edward Durris, the Pittsburger, is To-
Gated at TOrian, in the province Of
Guiana, Mexico. The letter was ad
dressed to his uncle, M. S. Durris, who
lives in this city and is an employee of
Anderson,2 Diamond street. The neph-
ew states that on April rs, the day be-
fore the letter was written, the Span
iards and Americans in Torian came
together.
The whole Spanish population was up
in arms and completely cleaned out the
IA American residents of the town.
However, IL Spaniards were killed. The
letter states that great feeling has been
exhibited between the Americans and
SpaniardS in Mexico. The weather.
people in Mexico are Spanish and have
begun Withholding business from
Americans.
The letter states that the riot at
Torian began by the Americans boast
ing of what the United States would do
to the Spaniards in Cuba and the Phil
ippineS. The Americans, he states, car
ried the matter too far, which resulted
in their entire humiliation. The letter
lance south of Torian. If matters get
too warm in Mexico, Durris says the
Americans will turn over their property
to the government.

BIG BRITISH SHIP
Came Very Near Being Blown Up in
Boston Harbor.

Boston, May 5.-Captain Mcdonald
and $50 men comprising the passengers
and crew of the British steamer Otto
man had a thrilling experience in the
harbor yesterday afternoon
In coming into the bay the Ottoman's
bow was crossed by a fishing schooner,
and in order to avoid a collision the
steamer ran into a submarine mine. A
United States patrol boat shouted
warning, but it was too late to avert
striking the buoy. and all aboard held
their breath as the big steel ship hit
the mine and passed over it without
entangling the wires and causing an ex-
plosion. AS a result of this experience
the patrol system is to be extended,
the United States engineers realizing
that there is great danger of some one
of the 1,200 mines in the harbor being
struck by big ships in passing in and
out, causing them to explode, and that
more strict surveillance must be ta-
ken.

DEWEY'S EARLY LIFE.
Romantic Story of How He Lost His
Heart to a Washington Girl.

Romantic Story of How He Lost His
Heart to a Washington Girl.
New York, May 5.-A Washington
dispatch to the Herald says:
Club chatter among intimates OF
Commodore Dewey revives the fact of
a previous encounter with Spain in
which he did not come out first.
The devotion of Commodore Dewey
to Miss Virginia Lowery, the handsome
daughter of Archibald Lowery, one of
the most prominent and wealthy of the
exclusive residential set in Washing
ton, is we'll known here. Miss Lowery
was beautiful and a woman of definite
views as to what would make up her
happiness. When very young she be-
came engaged to a dashing, untitled,
impecunious secretary of the Spanish
legation, Count Jack Brunetti.
Her father refused to sanction the
affair, but, declining all other offers,
even that of the present hero of the
hour, Miss Lowery kept during 20 years
her plighted troth. Three seasons ago,
however, with the consent of her father
she became the wife of Duke D'Arcos,
her devoted and loyal squire, who not
only had inherited a title and estates,
but represented his country as minister
to Mexico.
They say the commodore resented
bitterly his defeat by a foreign nation,
and it is proba Bile sent hot shots with
added vim, recalling the horrid day
when Jack Tar Cupid set SPANS flag
above the Stars and Stripes on the
trim craft of his hearts desire.
