Talks As a Private Citizen to a Press

Washington, Feb 11.-Senor de LONE

withdrew the condition of secrecy
which had been imposed during the
trying ordeal and of the incident
All about were evidences of prepara-
ton for departure. The spacious en-
frances were piled high with huge
packing boxes, and several men were
slowing away goods. Express wagons
were at the side and rear entrances.
Senior de Lone was in the legation Of

He preserved that outward calm which
has marked him during other critical
stages of the Spanish Cuban contest

The minister referred to his plans.
He said he expected TO leave Washing
toa as soon as possible, taking into
considerable the time of the departure
of the Atlantic steamers. He eX-
pressed satisfaction that his going

private citizen should enjoy. 1t would

PRODDING MARK HANNA.
May Yet Be Compelled to Face Brib-
cry Charges.


San Francisco Examiner: Columbus
o., Feb. 9.-Chairman Burke of the
senatorial investigating committee, has
issued subpoenas, calling Senator
Hanna, Major Dick, Major e. G. Rath-
bone. Harry Nj. Daugherty and S. D
Hollenbeck before the committee
Those to Senator Hanna, Major Dick
and Major RathbOne were mailed to
them. They are not in the state. and
their attendance cannot be forced, but
it IS desired to give them one more
opportunity to appear before the COM
mittee before the report is made up.
1t is known that the Hanna men all
over the state have been urging Hanna
to take some action in the matter. the
general opinion of his henchmen being
that he cannot afford to remain quiet
under such strong charges.
Senator Finck of the investigating
committee, said tonight: IF ] were
presiding over trial where men were
charged with bribery and evidence
such as has been before the senate
bribery investigating committee were
produced, l would say to the defense:
Gentlemen, you must produce some
testimony ! am of the opinion that
Senator Hanna will offer some testi-
mony to the committee before we get
through. He cannot afford to ignore
the evidence which has been adduced.
/ think that the Hanna people are al
ready consulting as to the best way to
get testimony before the committee"
Colonel T. c. Campbell. who holds
the tainted shekels, amounting to
81. $50. was in the city today conferring
with the members of the investigating
committee as 70 the best method OF
reaching II. II. Boyce and persuading
him 20 tell his story.
Colonel Campbell is in a rather pecu-
liar predicament. He has been gar
nisheed by a creditor of Boyce, and it
looks as II he will have to tur, over
the rooney. even though it doesn't be
long to Boyce.

Unmusical Music

Cairo Egypt Sphinx: Who shall define
Arab music? It has been described as the
singing OF a prima donna who mad run
tured her voice in trying to sing duet
with herself. Each note starts from
somewhere between a sharp and q fiat
but does not stop even there AMI sol-ts
up into four or more portions. of which
no person can b. expected to catch more
than ore at time John Oliver Hobbies
says there is a great law of infdelitv in
the human race-a man must be faithless
to something. either to woman or his
deity or his most cherished balief The
Arab musician is always unfaithful-to
his stave and his keynote. But faith I'M
faithful makes him falsely true to the
ears of his hearers, and they enjoy and
applaud his wrangles with harmony. The
singing reminds one of the walls of
bereaved Thomas suffering from an acute
attack of gastritis. complicated with neu-
ralgia.

were enjoyable. Anybody would rather
so to banquet than funeral. The
monster meeting in the theatre on
Thursday night and the great enthu-
siasm shown was undoubted evidence
that Woodcraft had a great future in
Utah.
TOastmaster Christensen concluded
the proceedings by attributing tie great
enthusiasm and the success which at
tended the visit of the head officers to
their earnestness and hard work. and
with an enthusiastic vote of thanks
the banqueters dispersed.
The head officers leave for Colorado
