OF DREW AND ADJOINING
 COUNTIES
 We appreciate, to the fullest ex- tent, even beyond expression. your most earnest. faithful and never tiring search for our deal little Ila McCone. It is to all the people, who helped to hunt, that we tender our thanks.
 Tie mother of our little la sure ly suffered many heart-aches that relatives and friends could not feel. still she bore them with that view standing out that God would pro- tect her child and give her back to her again
 Together with the step-father, whose zeal and never tiring ener. gy for his lost baby girl never ceased, this writer was an eye-wit- ness to most of the hunting, be. ing one of the first of the relatives to hear of and respond to the solemn call of the parents of the lost child. While this peculiar case could not be laid to any carelessness on the part of the parents. whatever, as it was the custom of the chil- dren to pass back and forth from the place where Mr. Alderman the step-father, has shingle-yard 1t only being about half of q quarter of mile from the field still we think this should be q sol eFn warning to all parents.
 Little ila since she was found. has received many presents from friends, including about 5000 in cash, some seventeen or eighteen dresses, ore pony horse, 70 head of hogs and pigs. one COW, house hold furniture, worth about $2O.o and many others, between E and 100 in all.
 We have a brief history, in hel own language, of her trip an5 travels while lost in the woods fol two days and nights, which we hope, in the near future. to be able to offer to the people who woulc like to know if.
 Her little deg, "Dash" whicf stuck to her during the whole time is d great pet, and is well cared for.

Said Rev. Milton A. Barber, at St.
Paurs church: '9The struggle at the
polls on Tuesday was one for liberty,
honesty, decency and right. The better
citizens of the State waged a warfare
against political corruption, social un-
righteousness, moral stagnation and dis
indignation.
'The question at issue is raised above
party lines, and when reduced to final
analysis was far beyond the color line.
1t was the question of intelligence, hon
esty, competency, as against debauch-
cry, theft, ignorance and Incompetence
Right won on election day. Principle
rises above party every time
'If we allow anything to divert us
from carrying out the good intentions
which prompted us in this redemptive
crusade we may reasonably expect Gods
visitation upon us. for Gods retribution
is everywhere discernible in past his
tory. Let us be generous, charitable and
kind to all men. white and black. and
above all things be true to our God. for
it is truth along all lines that brings
peace at last"

sICARD's RETIREMENT
Was a Matter Of Necessity Not Of
Choice

KEY WEST, Fla, March 29.-The light
house tender Mapgrove arrived here from
Havana this morning, bringing in guns and
wreckage from the Maine.
The survey steamer Bache arrived here
this morning from Havana.
The Mangroves departure from Havana
without the United States officials is said
by an officer on board to have been due to
change Of orders rendered necessary by
the unexpected quiet in Cuba. 1t is abso-
lutely denied that her trip to Havana was
connected with any but routine matters
or was premeditated by the department.
Captain Evans, who came on the steamer
from Miami today, is here to take command
of the Iowa. The Annapolis arrived this
afternoon.
Rear Admiral Sicard's appearance before
the board of retirement, it leaked out to-
day, was ordered by the navy department.
1t was by no means in accordance with his
personal wishes, nor, as was generally un-
derstood at the time, the result OF his own
application. In fact the navy department
ordered him point blank to appear before
the board of retirement. This, which is the
real history of the case, is known to but
few, and it puts somewhat of a sensational
phase on Rear Admiral Sicard's with
drawal from the scene of activity.

THE MADRID CONFERENCE
No Agreement Reached Though the
Prospects Are Promising


MADRID, March 2s.-Gen. Woodford's
conference with the Spanish ministers this
afternoon was of an hours duration, ana
the ministers continued in deliberation
after Mr.. Woodford withdrew.
According to the reports from Porto
Rico, the elections there passed off with
out disorder, and the Autonomists polled
more heavily than the Conservatives.
Beyond the fact that few policemen and
a couple of civil guards stand outside the
American legation, there is absolutely no
sign in Madrid of the tension between
Spain and America. So far as the general
public is concerned, the matter is little dis
cussed, even the press being today general
ly hopeful of a peaceful settlement.
The note Minister Woodford presented is
practically repetition of the one present.
ed in September, which, in the interest Of
humanity, asked Spain for an immediate
cessation of hostiities in Cuba. Upon
Spain's reply to this matter hinges the
conference held at the presidency this
afternoon, at which Senior Sagasta, the
premier; Senior Gullon, the foreign minis
ter; Senior Moret, minister for the colonies,
and Gen. Woodford were present, and at
which it had been hoped decision would
be reached.
Both governments are absolutely agreed
as to the desirability of a settlement said
a diplomat to the correspondent of the
Associated Press, 'but the tension is so
great between the two that it would only
take a little further strain to split the haw-
