Which Did NOT OCCUR.
CHAMBERsBURo. Pa. Feb. 22.-Tho Confeder-
ate flag was not carried in a parade here to-day
simply because Housum Post of the G. A. r.
put its foot down on the scheme. An elaborate
celebration of Washington's Birthday had been
arranged some time ago. Tho G. A. II. voter
ans of Chambcrsburg determined to have a ju-
bilation. and among their invited guests were to
be tho Gen. Turner Asbury Camp of Confed-
crate Veterans OF Winchester. Va.
A few days ago the Virginians notified the
post here that a Confederate flag; which was
brought from Appomattox" would be carried in
the parade. Housum Post sent word back that
the q. A. r. boys still stood by their invitation,
but that all must march under old Glory"
here on Washington's Birthday or not at all.
The virginians thereupon recalled their accept
ance of tho invitation to attend to'night's camp
fire and bean soup. and there the incident ends.

A FRANCISCO. Feb. 22.-The latest news
from North Borneo of the native revolution
says that Mat Sullah, the leader, has been shot
in the leg and badly wounded. Like Kipling's
"Man Who Would be King" Mat has posed as a
god invulnorable to bullets. His practice has
been to scar mis- sKin after a battle with hot
irons and snow the marks as traces OF bullets
which hit him but could not penetrate.
Now that he has actually been wounded he
has lost all his prestige. and the British expect
soon 10 Bubdue tho revolt.

United States is bound by every dictate
OF humanity to put an end. Every method
has been tried, every means has been ex-
hausted, every pretext has been allowed
in order to permit Spain to fulfill its
promises that peace in Cuba would be
restored through its authority. But
neither by false autonomy nor by dis
honorable bribery, nor by force of arms,
has Spain been able to regain control of
the province which has declared it's in
dependence and for three years main-
tained with heroic resolution it's revolt
against rule of injustice and robbery.
The entire world is now convinced of
the strength of Cuba's cause, as it has al
ways acknowledged its justice. The en-
tire world is now convinced that Spain
cannot conquer. The entire world is
shocked at the horrid spectacle of rapinc
starvation, desolation and destruction,
all as futile as it is bloody. The entire
world as we'll as the united people of this
country, now look to the government of
the United States to perform to humani-
ty what has become its plain and inevi-
table duty. The loss of the Maine may.
or may not, be proved cause for war.
But peace in Cuba must be restored, and
whatever steps to that end may be taken
by this administration, whether or not
they involve war that shall compel
peace, will be supported by every re-
source OF loyal nation.

He Is After the Scalp of Policeman Luke
 Livingston.
Charges Him With Conduct Unbeconling an Officer and
 Is Relentless.
Trouble Arose Over a Case in Which Livingston Was the Arrest
 ing Officer.

Judge Low yesterday decided to pre- fer charges before the Police Commits sioners against Policeman Luke Liv- ingston arising out of the dismissal Of case in which Livingston was the ar resting officer.
 The case was that of P. Faro. who was charged with assault to murder. The complaining witness was Joseph Marine, and Faro was accused of stab- ping him during a fight in a saloon. When the case was heard on Decem- Der A Prosecuting Attorney Reynolds was not present in court, and Attorney Long, who represented the defendant, performed the double role of prosecut- ing attorney and attorney for defend ant.
 Livingston protested against the case going on without the prosecuting at torney being present, and he and Long had an altercation on the subject.
 The evidence showed, according to Judge Low, that Marine was the ag- gressOr, and that Faro in stabbing him merely acted in self-defense. He ac- cordingly dismissed the case. Living ston at once laid the matter before Chief Lees, and the chief instructed him to take it before the Grand Jury. The Grand Jury threw out the case.
 The Judge secured a copy of the evil dence given by Livingston before the Grand Jury, and alleges that he made many misstatements. besides intimat- | ing that the case had been squared. "I do not propose" said Judge Low yesterday, ito allow any policeman to 1 come into my court and because case | is dismissed to make false statements | about me to his superior officer or any ! body else, and I propose to make an ex- 1 ample of Livingston. He has acted all | through in a manner that was totally | uncalled for. The case was decided on ] it's merits. The complaining witness | had been up on several occasions Tor
 using a knife, and is considered a dan ! perOllS man.
