STORY OF SCHLEY,S
STRATEGY.
Quick to Comply With the
Request of Some Teeto-
talers.

Flying Squadron Schley says
the New York Sun, has always
been peculiar officer among
the men forward on ships under
his command. One of the ex-
bluejackets now in Washington,
tells a story of Schley that
he is something of a humorist.
A number OF years ago Schley
was in command of one of the
old navy ships that was fitting
out at the brooklyn Navy Yard
for foreign cruise. Now nav
al officers in the ward room car
ry along lot of good beer with
them when they start on a cruise.
They are not heavy drinkers,
but they use itin mess with their
meals. The beer is taken aboard
in bottles packed in straw in
immense hogheads. A few
days before Schley's ship was
to set sail for a foreign station
a big party..ot brooklyn Sunday
School teachers visited the ship
in body. The party was COM
posed equally of men and wo-
men. The crew was engaged
in slowing and breaking out
stores. On the main deck stood
one OF the big hogsheads packed
full of beer bottles that had
been emptied. The hogsheads
filled with empty bottles was
abouLte be hoisted. As the
bottles stuck out of the packing
straw there was no way of tell
ing whether they were full OF

ADVISING THE PRESI'
DENT.
The Whole Country Seems
to Have Developed Into
A War Committee.

1t would seem from the mails
received at the White House and
the War and Navy Departments,
writesa Washington corresponds
ent, that large part Of the pop>
ulation of the country has Or
ganized itself into a committee
On the conduct of thewar, for the
President and the two Secreta>
ries, Gen. Miles, and even mem
bers OF the Senate and House of
Representatives, are buried
these days in letters from people
who criticlse or make sugges
tons concerning the operations
of the feet and the army and
other subjects relating to the
contest with Spain. The Ameri-
lean people can always be relied
upon to assert their individuals
ity and independence. But
never have they come out quite
SO strong as at present. Some
of the letters contain excellent
suggestions. The tax on chew
ing gum in the tariff bill is the
result of private letter written
to member of Congress by a
lady in his district. No one
else seemed to think of gum
as revenue raiser. and there
are doubtless many other valu>
able hints i'll the correspondence
that now burdens the mail. But
the great mass Of letters are from
cranks and critics and people
who have schemes or intentions
and those who have been lying
awake nights thinking of the
best way to crush the Spanish
army and destroying its fl eet.
Few of these letters reach the
President or the Secretaries to
whom they are addressed. They
are caught Oh the way and refer
red to the bureaus to which their
contents relate. An attempt is
made to acknowledge all of
them, but they are now SO nu-
rnerous that this is impossible,
and circular has been printed
in imitation of typewriting in>
forming the writer's that their
communications have arrived
and will receive due considera-
ton.

Evangelina Cisneros, the
young Cuban girl, is soon to
wed, and around the courtship
feading up to the engagement
land announcement of the cer-
cmony to come, pretty romano,
is woven, replete with chivalri,
episodes and love songs as only
the true Cuban with warm
Southern blood can pour forth
The man Miss Cisneros is tC
wed is Mr.. Carlos Carbonel, the
ormer Cuban banker. who was
yesterday nominated by Presi
dent Mckinley to be first
lieutenant and aid on the staff
Of Major General Fitzhugh Lee,
When Karl Decker went to
Havana with the express pur-
pose of l1berating Miss Cisneros,
he found a trusted lieutenat in
the person of Mr.. Carbonell, who
entered readily into the daring
plot, although like Mr.. Decker,
he was at the time unacquainted
with the fair young Cuban. So
it was when the eventful night
of the rescue from the Havana
prison came about Mr.. Carbonell
was at Decker's side during the
whole affair.
To Carbonel was intrusted the
duty and privilege of accompa>
ing the girl to New York. Com
partnership between the two ma
tives of a common cline soon
ripened into love, and the usual
detail of the courtship followed,
with the result that the wedding
will shortly take place, probably
before Lieut.. Carboneil shall be
ordered into the field, although
no definite time has been decid

A great Ovation.

Charlotte, N. c., May a.
Today will be one that will live

The State has sent her first
troops to the front again as in
the sixties, armed men have
been hurrying to the war. They
have gone willingly and with a
cheer just as recruits in 1861
went, and crowds of people have
cheered them on with enthusi-

1t was reserved for Charlotte
to give the troops the greatest
ovation of any city in the State
With cheers and waving Of flags
two thousand inhabitants in the
Queen City welcomed the two
companies, and with sad faces
bid them adieu. A stop of
twenty minutes was made for
dinner, after which they sped
