But at this moment the lady put
back her curtain an inch or two, and
called brightly: ''Father!"
The two young men looked at each
other in guilty silence.

peated, a trifie impatiently.

Darcie examined the lady's garments,
respectful depreciation in the tips of his
fingers, and reported that the habit
was dry, but that the boots were not
yet fit to put on. If only there were
something -anything-they could dare
to offer her, that she could possibly
keep on her feet!
''Show her me 'herring-boxes,' Oar

ecstatic aside. "And your own little

Darcie bethought him of a tiny pair
of squaw's moccasins which he had pur-
chased, as a specimen of native aborig-
inal work, to send home. These he pro-
duced in triumph, and the curtain
dropped upon the lady's toilet.

sound of their voices, Darcie command

notwithstanding some Spanish victories
reported recently. Spain makes haste slow
iy in suppressing the instruction" in
Cuba, and mean while. the volunteers
and other rough elements of the popula-
tion Of Habana show a saucy disposition.
They are none too friendly towards the
United States. for their belief is that
most Of the filibustering expeditions that
have left our shores could have been ar
rested had our authorities been willing
and watchful
Personally. Consul-General Fitz Lee is
held in high esteem by the natives ard
The Spanish both, yet what appears TO
have been an internal machine was some
time ago found in a part Of the building
where he has his Office And lately
symptoms Of rioting have appeared in
Habana which indicate that that city
may at any moment become a scene of
disorder and bloodshed. A less cool
headed man than General Lee. and one
with less training in war, would have
long ago demanded of our government
the protection that would be afforded him
by the presence of one or more Of our
wsrships. But General Lee has remained
cool throughout. 1t is understood that
the United States Government has left it
with him TO say whether our ships shall
sail for Habana or continue in the neigh
borhOod Of Key West. They are IN four
or five hours reach Of him, vet IN that
space of time an Infatuated mob might
wreak a terrible vengeance 1pon the
Americans in Habana.
On the other hand. 1t would clearly not
be promotive Of good feeling between
Spain and this country for warships Of
ours TO be sent TO Habana. It would lie
regarded as menace; yet entrance to
the harbor could not be refused them
without giving objectionable affront TO
US. Meanwhile, Germany, which has in
comparably smaller interests in Cuba
than we have. is about to make a naval
display at Habana, with the view OF
warning all concerned that the rights of
Emperor Williams subjects must be re-
spected.
Practically speaking, 1t IS left with
General Lee 10 say If our ships Shall or
shall not go to Habana. This is a great
mark of confidence in him upon the part
Of our government, but it is hardly fair
TO him. We may be sure that no con-
sideration as TO his own safety will in
fiuence him unduly; on the contrary. It
is far more likely that he viii be more
inclined to pooh-pooh than exaggerate |
the personal danger However, we con- |
graduate the country upon having such |
trusty representative at Habaaa, and .
it speaks volumes in praise of General |
Lee that nowhere in the newspaper press /
OF this land is there TO be seen any ex-
preston OF fear that he will prove un-
equal to the delicate and responsible du-
ties Of his post.

DON'T FARLEY.

We trust the Legislature will not parley
with the trading-stamp people, but will
forthwith pass the bill prohibiting the
use Of stamps and checks, such as have
upset business in so many Of the cities
Of this country.
The system is clearly against public
policy and ought TO be rooted out. AS a
matter of fact, it has been extirpated
from many large communities. And
Chattanooga is, at this very time, en-
gagged in passing laws which purpose i'm
posing heavy license taxes, not only upon
the trading-stamp companies, but upon
all merchants who use stamps. But as
the companies are driven from the cities
they will-unless the law intervenes-seek
refuge in the towns and villages. and
finally they will reach the country stores.
The stamp scheme not only dsturbs the
natural course Of business, but takes from
Virginia to New York tens of thousands Of
dollars of net profit. 1t is a stamp tax in
geniously laid upon us. Were it levied in
any other form there would be a general
uprising and outcry against it as a most
useless and oppressive burden.
Our information is that the system is
condemned by every commercial COM
munity in the States where 1t has been
tried, and we believe the people have so
Informed their representatives, yet there
is danger that the Legislature will listen
to compromise measures. If they do, Vir-
ginia will continue to pay tribute to New
York capitalists But bad as that would
be- it would not be the limit of the evil.
The system incites many persons to
useless expenditures; it causes old bills
to be left unpaid; it makes jars between
merchants and customers and between
merchant and merchant, and leaves us
with a few insignificant prizes, while It
takes out Of the State great sums in net
profits.
The Murphy bill has been amended so
that It will not interfere with manufac- |
lures who give away premiums or prizes
with their own goods and ought now to |
be passed promptly. so that the whole |
State shall be relieved Of the drain to |
which 1t has been, or may be, subjected.

MRS. Mack HAS HEART TROUBLE
Prison Physician says She May Col
lapse Mt Any Time.

A dispatch from Auburn, \. Y, says
Mrs. Augusta Mack. who was brought
here Wednesday from Long Island city
to serve out ffteen-yoars' sentence for
completely with Martin Thorn in the mur'
der Of William Guldensuppe, Is suffering
from heart-discase.
Mrs. Mack slept in the hospital We'd
nesday nieht, instead OF being locked Ia
a cell. Despite her outward comp0sure,
the prison physicians found that she was
on the verge Of collapse from excessive
nervousness. Her heart Is affected, and
the excitement Of the journey from New
York had aggravated that complaint. The
prison physicians says that the neart
trouble is of nature that may result IA
tally at any time.
Warden Mead had a long talk with the
woman Thursday morning. after she hal
finished a hearty breakfast The tax
lasted nearly an hour When she emerged
from the Warden's presence MS. Mack
was weeping. Then she was taken Do

THE CONDITION pREcEpryr.

The Dispatch has time and again said
1t believes that the tax-paying public of
virginia will consent TO bear a small
special tax TO give help TO our INDECENT
veterans-provided it can be shown that
the money needed for this purpose can
not be obtained through measures of re-
trenchment.
That is exactly the state Of the case,
as we understand it. Yes; first the Legis-
lature must go before the people with the
proof that It has left no stone unturned to
cut down expenses. Next, it must show
that there are many old soldiers in want.
With all this done. we believe our peo-
pie will cheerfully bear a small additional
tax; but, we repeat, we warn members
TO be careful to make It plain to all
thinking men and women that no choice
was left them but to levy an extra tax
or see many gray-haired old defenders
of Virginia die in poorhouses or by the
roadside begging for bread.

A Not OyerhonefuI Contemporary.

(The Fredericksburg Free Lance, hide
pendent)
The following wants" are not likely
to be supplied by the present session OF
the Virginia Legislature:
l. Any reduction of expenditures or
abolition OF unnecessary Offices.
H. Any "anti-hirtng" act.
III. Any whipping-post act.
". Any act abolishing capital punish
ment.
But what the people seem to be likely
to get are:
i. More offices created.
II. The tax-rate increased.
Ill Resolutions" . TO reduce expenses.
intended mainly for "buncombe." and
"chln" music without stint, on all sub
jects.
". And the Tidewater people seem
likely 70 be visited with unfriendly oyster
legislation.
We do believe however, there will be
good sense enough in the Legislature TO
prevent any unwise legislation intended
10 cripple railroads that we have. and
which, if passed. would prevent any new
roads from being built In the State.
