thrown overheard before the fight with
Cervera's fleet. 1t turns out that before
the Texas donned her war paint the
library with other luxuries of the vessel
was stored at the Brooklyn navy yard.
The officials Of the Texas are sorely per-
picked by the continual arrival at the

who thought General wheeler's absence
from the Eighth Alabama district DUR
ing the campaign in Santiago, where he
was CALAMITY helping to drive Spanish
rule from the West indies, would afford
them an opportunity to try for the
honor of stepping into his congressional
shoes in case anything should happen
10 him, or that the war would be pro-
lonsed, requiring him TO remain in the
deid, are destined to be disappointed.
Now that the war IS over the gallant
southern veteran proposes to come home
and resume his services as u representa-
tive m Congress. The rumor that with
the news of spain's surrender and the
assurances of peace, the various candI-
dates began to run from the field, IS
probably correct. n It Isn't Fighting

The expression of the London Times

the war, Is borne out by the facte. The
President has been throughout frank in

upon him mas maintained a cool head
ana steady nerve. To this fact is due
4he confidence the country has In him
and his ability to carry out the plans

Of future grave questions.
