 Don Antonio de Ulloa, which was sunk

The insur- gents apparently, the Seafiro reports, fear to leave cover. At Achio the in- surgent leader who was arrested by General Aguinaldo will, the insurgents think, be shot, as General Aguinaldo
 fears a conspiracy against himself.

Great Loss of Life and Damage to Prop
 erty-The Killed.

erty-The Killed.
 Hampton N. H., July 4.-A terrific tornado struck a section of Hampton Beach at 3:15 this afternoon, causing and great loss of life. The atmospheric disturbance came almost without warn- ing and was accompanied by little rain at first, a few large drops preceding the sweep of the winds. In an instant, almost, cottages were blown flat horses were picked up bodily and lashed against buildings, vehicles carried many feet, barns unroofed, large trees snapped off at their roots while others were torn up bodily. The effect of the storm was shown noticeably in the way up. The tornado touched the beach at place about half mile north of Whittiers hotel and cut a swath one hundred yards wide in a westerly di- rection In a short time twenty cot tages were torn down and several small hotels completely wrecked. The greatest loss of life and injury came with the demolition of the old skating rink, near Leavitt's, a single story structure of wood, 50 by 100 feet in area. Here from seventy-five to one hundred and twenty-five persons are seriously injured, an unknown number slightly wounded and seven persons are already dead. Confusion reigns and the scenes are pitiful in the ex- treme.
 A yacht owned by Captain Frank Mudd of this place was sailing off the beach and was in the path of the storm III IL Wtit Iliilt ptISpIlS bliIl pl tItSe five were drowned The drowned: Wal ter Gertrude and Ralph Hodgson of Kensington, N. H.; Mrs. W. K Parker of Kensigton and Captain Budd of Hampton. The others in the boat were: Alfred Scott, John Lenbey, Will liam K. Parker and daughter, all of Kensington. All of these are believed to have been saved.
 The list of dead on shore reported at 8 o'clock was as follows: Mora, the actress, of New York, who was play ing in a piece entitled "The Blowing Up of the Maine" Miss Mae Prescott of Exeter Samuel Cammett of Exeter, William F. Karlson of Exeter.
 Among those believed to be fatally injured in the pavilion are: J. F. Pen- nington of Exeter, N. H., A. W. Bart ser of Exeter, N. H., internal injuries. Karlson was taken out dead, but Mora, the actress, was alive when found and died shortly after arrival at the Merri- mac House. A peculiar incident in the pavilion is reported. The pianist had his hands and head caught by fall ing beam and was crowded against the paino so that it was not possible for him to extricate himself. He was se- riously hurt. A member of the Exeter Cornet band was among the killed. New York, July 4.-The Realization

 Very respectfully, Your obedient servant W. R. Shafter. Major General U. s. A. Following is the Spanish reply which Colonel Dorst has just returned at 6:9O p. m.:
 Santiago de Cuba, 2 p. m., July 3, 1893. His Excellency The General Com manding Forces of United States San Juan River:
 Sir--I have the honor to reply to your communication of to-day written at S:30 a. m., and received at i p. m. demanding the surrender of this city; on the contrary case announcing to me that you will lombard this city, and that I advise the foreign wo men and children that they must leave the city before 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. it is my duty to say to you that this city will not surrender and that I will inform the foreign consuls and inhabitants of the contents of your message.

They ask if -combatants can occupy the town of Caney and railroad points and ask until 10 o'clock of fifth instant before city is fired on. They claim that there are between fifteen and twenty thou sand people, many of them old, who will leave. They ask if I can supply them with food, which I cannot do for want of transportation to Caney, which is fifteen miles from my landing. The following is my reply: The Commanding General Spanish Forces, Santiago de Cuba:

In any event, twelve o'clock on Tues day marks the limit of Shafters con- cession, and if Santiago has not capitu- lated at that hour the great siege guns now brought to the front and in posi- tion, backed by the batteries of lighter field pieces will begin theiF work of de- struction. The pressing heed of rein forcing Shafter is no longer felt, now that the Spanish squadron is out of the way. A considerable number of men, however, are already on the way, and others will follow.

spanish Coast Next.

The changed naval situation will bring no abatement in the activity of the authorities here in carrying the war directly home to Spain. There is re- newed determination to get Commodore Watson's eastern squadron away at the earliest possible moment for the double purpose of striking blow at the coast towns of Spain and of pursuing Ad- miral Camara's squadron, which has halted at the entrance of the Suez ca nal. Secretary Long made the official statement to-day that the squadron would sail at the earliest possible mo- ment, and although he did not go into details as to it's purpose, it is well un- derstood that it will devote it's atten- tion to the Spanish coast and to Cama- r9

Promotion for Sampson.

It has been Acting Admiral Sampson for some time, but that it will be Ad- miral Sampson in fact is the prevailing feeling in naval circles as @ result of the victory reported by the American admiral. Shortly after the war broke out Captain Sampson was made acting admiral in order to give him rank fit ting his high command, although his actual naval rank remained at captain. By singular coincidence his rank was advanced to-day to that of commodore, owing to the retirement of Admiral Kirkland. In the event of his now be- ing made an admiral, it would advance him over the ten commodores making up the list of that grade and would place him just below Admiral Dewey.
 Release of Merrimac Heroes.
 The release of Hobson and the other heroes of the Merrimac incident is like ly to be another result of the events transpiring to-day. It may now come about either by the surrender of the city, which would include the surren- der of Hobson and other American prisoners in the city, or else by the ex- change of Hobson for Admiral Cervera or some other high ranking naval off, cial. Until to-day the possibility of ex- changing Hobson was slight, as this government had no Spanish prisoners of high rank to offer in hls place. Now, however, they have one of the fore most admirais of Spain and among the 1900 other naval prisoners there are many officers of distinguished rank.
 Treatment of Military Attaches.
 The dispatch from the front stating that there was likely to be some criti- cism because of the treatment of for eign military attaches excited much in- dignation among the military authori- ties here. It was stated by one of the highest officers of the service that the foreign gentlemen had received abso- lutely everything in the way of accom- modations supplies, ,rations, etc. given to our own officers and men. What was most surprising was that this protest should come at a moment when our men were fighting in swamp and thick ct under @ blazing sun with a thousand dead or wounded and under the fire of an entrenched enemy. There is every disposition here to extend the most complete courtesy to these gentlemen that is consistent with the circum- stances. There is no purpose, however, to give them greater attention in mounts, tents, or attendance than our own officers and men receive.

TITO SLOW MEN.

Men are Slow to learn and some men can never learn. Astonishing as it may seem and is, there is one man who has not been able to understand that his wife has the God-given right to eat pie. This man lives in New York He noticed that his wife wanted pie regularly and numerously. He was shocked, and some will think that his shock was proper. But intelligent peo- pie will not think it proper for him to do as he did. He refused to furnish her money to buy the pies that were necessary to her peace and happiness. She said to herself and to him, No pie, no husband, and packed up her duds and went home and fell on her fa- ther's neck. Her father and she de- cided that she had good cause for a divorce, and he furnished the money for her to go to North Dakota and get one. Divorce for one, with pie on the side, is her order.
 It is hard to believe that there is another man in this country as stupid as the man who allowed his happiness to be wrecked on a reef of pie. But there is, and he isn't far from the anti pie man. He is in Newark, New Jer- sey, and he has allowed the light of his sons life to fit away on a diamond frame bicycle. His son and the light have only been married two years. The days were molasses anu the nights were saccharin, until the question arose, Should she ride diamond frame wheel? She didn't raise this question. According to her notion there was no question. Her husband didn't seem to think there was. But her father-in- law did and he drove her out of his striding the diamond-frane. She went cheerfuIly, considering herself well rid of a foolish father-in-law and a ridic- ulous husband.
 The moral of these two stories of course is, Do not refuse your wife pie or the privilege of riding a diamond frame wheel. If you do she will have the pie or the riding, or both, and you will have no wife.

lad had come in and his very signature was worth money.


 Though the end of the zoar commit nity in Ohio was announced months ago, it was only last week that the so- ciety was formally dissolved. It had required eight months for commis- sion to divide the seven thousand acres of land equitably among the 196 mem bers entitled to a share. The division was not according to area, but to value It was satisfactory to the 1S6 members, who voted unanimously in approval and each one of whom deeded to the others all right in the community prop erty except that portion allotted by the commission, These 136 members in good standing profit by the large num- Der of secessions from the society which have taken place within the last three years. Each has land enough on which to make living, and each will be en- titled to an equal share in the money to be obtained by a sale of the chattels of the society next month. It is esti- mated that each will have, in land and personal property, valuation of about $S,000. This represents about $1,0O0,000 as the accumulated fruits of almost a century of applied communism.

NIen Are But Men.

 George Whitman, D. D., in New York Ex-
 amiper Though lifted high above the common mass To some amazing height of wealth and power,
 Men are but men; They strut the stage of life one heeting hour, Perform their little part, then quickly pass
 From mortal ken Ambition grasps the rod of sovereign rule, And puny minds demand divine esteem
 So proud and great Their pride Is but the frenzy of dream; Their greatness sinks to open ridlcule,
 Or bitter hate. One nation trembles at tne despot's frown, And bends the servile knee to handsel gain
 Manhood debased; Another holds the despot in dlsdain, His mummied form the pageant Of the town
 A King encased! Kaiser, or King, or Czar, or what you will. Bishop, or Pope, or lordling proud and gay
 Whate'er we be, We still are men, sprung all from com mon clay. And common heirs to every natural ill-
 One race are we! Not empty titles, worn by lords or Kings, Not proud distinctions, meaningless and vain,
 In Church or State; But depth of heart, and breadth and power of brain, And honest fellowlove-t these are the things
 That make men great,
