nary precautions are to be taken to guar
the Spanish ship while in port.
A whole feet OF small tugs, mainly

an order to be sent to a.. police captains
notifying them to er.ort back to their pre-
cincts Immediately after supper, and there
TO remain IA reserve until further orders.

quarters that this action is simply extro
precaution to prevent any possible out
break when tbs Spanish cruiser Visoaya
arrives.

N. H. The founding Of the parish dates
from 1888, but the present edifice ia
modern. 1T was built in 1906, and the
good man who preached the dedication
sermon described 1t as a work of stu.

Reflections of a Bachelor.

Love gets buried in marriage lots oftener
than it does in the grave.
The longer man lives the more incl
dents of his boyhood he remembers that
never happened.
A woman may know best how to hold a
baby, but it takes man to know how to
hold woman.
A child's main object in lifo is to do
things, a woman's to SEQ things and a
mans to have things.
Every girl has a period when she tells
all the men that she doesn't know what
love Is.
No woman ever thinks her picture does
her justice unless it makes her eyes look
bigger than Is natural.
Tho average woman never really be-
lieves in personal devil till some one Of
the ncighbors begins to talk about her
