II,

Never a shell throw that misses;
Where my babes fall men cease to be;
Foemen are blasted by battle kisses
That toss lightly across the sea.
Gods! but there's sport in the heat of battle
In the fierce red blast and the iron rain;
Joy in the smoke and the small arms rattle
Cheers Of the vlctors, blood of the slain.
John A. Hefferan in New York Sun.

FLOWER SHOW.

On November 18th, according
to we'll established and popular
annual custom of the Greenville
Schools. flower show will be
held at the High School. These
exhibitions have been held for
several years in the school, and
have gained constantly in popu-
larity and extent. Many flower
growers begin early in spring to
cultivate special plants for this
purpose; and in our favored eli
mate the first two weeks of Noyem-
her are the GROWING time of the
year. At that date the Chrysan-
themum is in full glory, and
roses are larger, richer and more
beautiful than even in spring. The
Chrysanthemum show this year
promises TO be remarkably fine
and will be abuudantly worth the
small admission fee that is charg,
ed. The proceeds of the yearly
show are devoted to the purchase
of literature for the school, and in
this way all the best periodicals,
especially those interesting to chill
dren, have for years past been
subscribed to and keptfor the bene,
fit of the scholars. Every patron
of the schools, and all lovers Of
flowers are interested in this ex.
hibition, which really has a very
important significance IN the sys.

Pecan parties are the fashion,
| This is the time of year when
country homes become scenes OF
pleasure and hospitality, and town
quests enjoy nothing more than
one Of these delicious autumn days
snent in the woods in the tasoinat-
inc pursuit of nutting, with per,
haps flshfry and a good Ola
fashioned plantation supper at the
close of the day. The old virture
Of hospitality is still alive, and the
average host is not satisfied unless
| his guests spend at least one night
under his roof, lulied to sleep by
the strange sweet silence OF the
country or the unaccustomed
sounds that only serve TO pece,n-
tuate the stiffness. The froIic

dreamless sleep, and the smoking Z
breakfast next morning are all
port and parcel of such nut

In the last issue of IHE ZINES
a little card appeared, simply an
nouncing that the Hypatia Club,
on account Of more pressing oblI-
cations of its members, had decid-
ed not to resume its meetings this
winter. The club has been one Of
the most charming and influential
social organization of Greenyille
for several years past. Its fame
has gone beyond the limits OF the
city, and its plan of work and
study was admired and copied by
similar circles in Mississippi and
the adjoining states. The DIS

regret, not only to its members,
but to all who felt its eleyating in
fuence.

The DECREE SENT TO SPAIN!
Cuba Must Be Given Up And the Spanish Army and
Navy Must Be Withdrawn

The president has sent his ultimatum to
Spain, which is in effect. that unless reply
is received by Saturday announcing that the
Army and Navy will be withdrawn from Cuba
and Cuban waters, that the United States
will proceed to at once take possession of the
island.
The army is nearly all on the seaboard
and fast transports are in waiting to transfer
2l,OOO of Uncle Sans boys in blue to the
shores of Cuba and the war vessels have
their decks cleared ready for action.

ton" Further along the report
expresses the opinion "that the
destruction of the Maine was
compassed either by the the Off
cial act of the Spanish authorities
or was made possible by negli-
gence on their part so willing
and gross as to be equivalent in
culpability to positive criminal
action"
Congress is so belligerent that
when no other enemy is in sight
its members want to fight each
other. This week there was
what looked from the gallery
like general free fight on the
floor of the house. When the
committee on foreign affairs re-
ported the Cuban resolution to
the house Slight misunderstand-
ing arose, during which Repre-
sentative Brumm, of Pa, called
Representative Bartlett, of Ga,
a liar. The Georgia gentleman
started for" the Pennsylvania
gentleman and on the way
grabbed book almost as big as
an unabridged dictionary from
another members desk and threw
it at Mr.. Brumm. This was the
signal for a rush on the part of
a score of members and the mix
up was awful for a little while.
The principals were taken charge
of by their friends and never got
together. II Spain had any
friends they would do as much
for her.
Consul General Fitzhugh Lee,
who has been given a reception
in Washington such as had not
been accorded to any person for a
long time, brought no new proof
concerning the guilt of Spanish
officers III the Maine explosion,
but he told the house and senate
foreign committees, before which
he appeared within two hours
after his arrival, that he hadn't
the slightest doubt that Spanish
officials at Havana were cogniz-
ant of and responsible for the
blowing Up of the Maine, altho'
he did not think that Captain
General Blanco either had. any
thing to do with it OF had any
knowledge of it before the explo-
sion. General Lee says he is
! anxious to go back to Cuba, not
as consu general, but as an officer
IN the q. s. army, sent there to
drive the Spanish flag off the
Island. The suggestion has been
made, and very fayorably re-
ceived, that, in view of General
Lees knowledge of the island, it
would be good policy to put him
in command of the U. S. army OF
Occupation chat will be sent tc
lCuba, unless there is a hitch in
present plans, in a very short
time. Gen. Lee agrees with the
president that the Cuban insur.
gents have not yet succeeded in
establishing government that is
/ es.titled to recognition as an indie.
tfpendent state, and his saying SC
! had a marked effect upon that
element in congress which had
beef insisting that intervention
ish0nld be accompanied s.by a
recognition of the, J, independence
of the insurgent government.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent.

From Our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Apr. Is, 1898.
The pendulum no longer swings
between peace; and war, but
hangs stationery at war. The
congressional JOINT resolution
declaring the people of Cuba free
and independent, and demanding
on the part of the U. S. govern
ment that spain withdraw from
Cuba, and directing and empow-
ering the president to use the
entire land and naval forces of
the U. S., and so much of the
militia of the several states as
may be needed to force Spain out
of Cuba, means war, and was
intended to mean war, as no one
in Washington has the slightest
idea that Spain will accede to the
demand pedCedDlY.
The only difference of opinion
in congress about the forclble
intervention resolution was on
the independence clause---always
excepting the four or hye sena-
tors who are known as peace-at-
any-price men. A strong minor
ity wished that clause to recog-
nize the independence of the
republic of Cuba, but after ma
ture consideration by the senate
and house foreign committees a
majority of both decided to fol-
low the presidents advice and
merely declare the people of Cuba
to be free and independent, leav-
ing the question of the govern
,tient of Cuba to be settled after
the island shall be occupied by
~. S. troops. Nothing is likely
to prevent the ultimate recogni-
ton of the present Cuban repub-
lie, unless it becomes apparent
that it does not represent a
majority Of the people of Cuba.
At least, that is what those close
to the president say. So far as
the use of force to drive Spain
out of Cuba is concerned there is
no opposition in congress, except
from the little group of senators
mentioned, who would oppose
war, even had the Maine been
destroyed by shell openly fired
j. -onl Moro Castle. Only 19 mem
srs of the house voted against
They can talk, ttnder the
{ .idles of the senate, but that is
all they can do. The die is cast.
Congress wants war, the people
want war, and war it will be.

tenn already in process of construc-
ton. 1t is compact place, managed
on business principles. Dyea, the
younger rival, has about $50 buildings,
30 of which are hotels, Is saloons and
10 gambling houses. Its resident pop
ulation is estimated at 5000, and
there are usually 1900 strangers bound
for the gold fields within its gates.
At Canyon City, another boom town,
an electric plant has been installed to
furnish power for an aerial tramway
across the summit of the pass. The
people of Skaguay are building a toll
road leading from their town to Lake
Bennett and navigation. 1t will cost
at least 100000, but as a two-cent-a-
pound toll is to be charged the pro-
moters of the enterprise expect to have
their money back before the 1st of
August. Everything is done on a gi-
gantic scale, and persons intending to
avail themselves of public improve
ments must be prepared to pay gigan-
tic prices for the privilege. AS pro-
moter of one of the many transporta-
ton companies said: eve don't know
how long this thing will last. It may
peter out after this season, and we
must have our money back, with big
profits, before September. Next year
