The report Of the senate committee
on foreign relations on the Cuban sit
uation was made by senator Davis,
chairman Of that committee, immedi-
ately on the assembling of the senate,
and was very thorough review of the
entire situation, and strong presen-
tation of facts which have led the
committee to its conclusions. The
report takes up the Maine disaster as
the leading topic for consideration
and plunges into that question in Its
first sentence.
The report was given the closest at,
tention and is considered the seyerest
arraignment OF q nation ever made.

LEES COURSE APPROVED.
He Refused to Permit Reception In His
Honor.

Honor.
A Washington dispatch says: Cen
eral Lee is being greatly congratulated
upon his refusal to permit the Con-
federate and Veteran unions to give a
joint reception in his honor. 1t was
proposed to hold this reception in the
rotunda of the capitol, the papers of
the city and members of both parties
endorsing the plan. The basis of his
refusal was his claim that he did not
deserve such demonstration and pre-
ferred to serve his country, doing his
duty without any ostentatious display
over it.
His answer to the committee, while
regretted by everyone, has added to
his reputation, being in strong con-
trast to others who would turn their
services to glory.

THE DISAPPEARING TRAY.

hcSult OF Putting n Japanese Metal
ASH Neceiver Upon a Hot Stove.
IL you ever use one of those little
fancy japanese metal trays sold about
the streets for ash receivers, don't put
it on the stove, though that happens to
be handy place for circle of smok-
ers to reach. That was what the OBJ
servant Jerseyman did the other night
at his country home, says the New
York Sun.
lie and his sons were sitting about
big stove on cold night, all smoking,
and for convenience he put the ash re-
ceiver on a sort of shelf at the back of
the stove against the smoke pipe. When
he went to bed he left the ash receiver
there. The following morning his wife
discovered it. 1t was perfect in ap-
Pearance and form, and still held the
pie of ashes, burned match ends, and
cigar butts which had been deposited
in it the night before. She was about
to pick it up, when she bethought her
self that it might be hot. Taking some
thing, therefore, to push it with, she
attempted to slide it off upon plate.
The moment she touched it the ash
receiver lost it's form, became liquid,
and ran off the stove upon the floor in
shining stream of white metal. The
heat of the stove had been sufficient to
melt the pewter, of which it was COM
posed, and it had probably stood there
for hours, all in a liquid form, except
the little crust of oxide and lacquer
upon its outer surface. This crust had
been coherent enough to keep the tray
in form until touch broke it, and then
the whole had collapsed.

A doubt that has troubled scientists
for years-whether there exists q vivi-
parous Kind Of fish, one that gives birth
to it's young in living state-was def
nitely settled in the affirmative the
other day, when the city hall fountain
of the capital of Arizona territory was
cleaned out. In turning the water ont
of the big cement basin, where god
fish variety Of the carp family has long
disported itself for the edilicatioa Of
the Phoenix nurse girl and the Mari
copa county hobo, it was fourd that
many of the fish had given birth to
progeny fully formed and ready to Cart
in search of food at the moment Of COM
ing into their watery world. Others
had given birth to tiny creatures tia:
were globular in shape, except f. thc
protruding eyes and nascent tai. fin
that could scarcely be seen without
strong glass. From all the evidences.
it was clear that the cleanup had been
made during the breeding season, yet
there was no sign of fish roe or eggs.
Many specimens Of the strange young
fish were collected, and will be shipped
to different experts, one lot going to the
Smithsonian institution.
