Received a Hearty Welcome.

From Tho Evening Journal.
The ovation which Colonel Il. 7. Cooper
received upon his arrival here from the
New Jersey state prisoa yesterday was one
of which " man occupying much more
enviable position might well be proud.
The high character and position of those
who called upon him to pay their respects
at the Federal building and Clayton House
evidenced the fact that his conviction OF u
crime Of which he steadfastly proclaims
his innocence has not robbed him of his
friends or shaken their faith in his in.
tegrily. After he has served his sentence
and returned to the state of his nativity.
n FREQ man, he will find the same hearty
welcome awaiting him,

storm in Spanish waters destroyed
several vessels of the "Invincib.e Ar
mada" and the rest put into port for
repairs. When everything was in readi-
ness again the fleet started and en-
tered the English channel, sailing along
in the form of half moon, nearly
seven miles broad. They were met by
the English feet, consisting of 80 ships,
which had been increased Ivy the addi-
ton of merchantmen and priva;ecrs to
about $50 vessels, under Lord Howard,
of Etlingham, Drake and others.
They fought. And il soon appeared
that the great Armada was anything
but "inviucible." for Drake sent eight
blazing freships into the midst of the
Spanish fleet. In terrible constcrnat:or
the SPaniards tried to get out to sea
and so became dispersed. The I:nc'i%!.

loss of 80 great ships and 10000 men,
defeated and disgraced, sailed home

Peculiar Funeral Cuntoms.

SWISS funeral customs are most pecul-
lar. AT the death of person the family
inserts formal, black-edged announce
ment in the papers asking for sym
pathy and stating that "the mourning
urn" will be exhibited during certain
hours on special day. in front of the
house where the person died there is
placed little black table, covcredI with
black cloth, on which stands black
jar. into this the friends and acquaint-
ances of the family drop little black
margined visiting cards, sometimes
with few words of sympathy on them.

It is agreed among the northern cities
that Winston Churchill's THE Celebri-
~ty" is a weIl told story, and is without
.uncleanness. It is not great but inter-
esting and clever. Another American
novel praised by competent writers is
"a Night in Acadie" by Kate Chopin.
It is considered imaginative, arts
is conceded to be fine and the Evening
Post says of it that Kat Chopin tells
a story like a poet, and reproduces the
spirit of a landscape like a painter"
It is a southern story, we suppose, told
by a southern writer. At any rate it
is concede to he fine and the Evening
Post says there is enough "of artistic
in the best to hold the reader
from cover to cover, transported for the
time to a reign Of fierce passions, me-
diaeval chivalry, combined with rags
and bad grammar, a soft, sliding Creole
accent, and the tragedies and comedies
that loom with special meaning in a
sparsely settled country"

patch. that the new Virginian and
gifted novelist, Miss Glasgow, resides
