Few Hints Regarding 1t.


Sore throat and hoarseness are some-.
times caused by cold feet, and these arc
evils which most women-indeed most
persons-are anxious to avoid, especially
persons who sing, as so many do in these
days. There is always draft on the floor,
even in well warmed and well joined
houses. Therefore women subject to chills
and to cold feet should not wear thin, low
slippers during the winter, even within
doors, but should instead keep to warm,
high boots or quilted julicts, which pro-
tect the ankles. Thick soled walking
boots, with woolen or chamois insoles.
should be worn out Of doors and cloth

~CIENFUEGos,' Cuba, Jan. 15.-In this city,
which has always been the stronghold Of the ir-
reconcilable Spaniards, there Is a strong move
ment among them In favor Of the annexation OF
Cuba to the United States. They prefer this so
luton TO independence or autonomy. The latter
they do not like because Il IL now a fact beyond
question that Il will not end the war. At the
same timo autonomy. the Spaniards believe, 10
but q pretext for giving little by little the con-
troll Of public affairs TO the natives TO the detri-
ment OF the interests OF the Spanish residents.
They hate tho idea OF Independence for tho same
reason being afraid of retaliation on the part of
the Cubans. A wealthy spaniard said to-day to
TIN N correspondent:
III the Cubans do not wish to be ruled by the
Spaniards and we do not wish to DO ruled by the
Cubans why not reach an understanding and
appeal to the United States to annex the island Z
Under the American flag We would DO neither
Spnniards nor Cubans, but Americans, and thon
1 hope we could live together In peace"
or course those who hold these views are
spaniards who own landed property and are In
terested in agricultural pursuits. The others.
teers, are as rabid against the United States az
against autonomy and Independence.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Jan. 16.-Tho United

decision to-day sustaining the lower court in
tho penalty imposed upon Capt. John d. Hart
of the flibusterlng steamship LAurada. Hart
was convicted about q year ego OF violating the

military expedition against q friendly nation.
and sentenced to two years imprisonment and
TO pay q fine OF $500. He was liberated under
bonds pending an appeal.
Judge Dallas, who handed down the opinion
Of the court, said the case was parallel to that
of Capt. Wiborg. who underwent imprisonment
q one, year for nlibusterins; It was ordered
that the sentence be complied with. Judge
Acheson dissentod from the view of the court.
He said the evidence did not Justify tho belief
that Hart was engaged In q military enterprise
within the ruling In the Wiborg case, and that
II was not sufficient to sustain u conviction.
Hart is at liberty under $1,000 bail. No effort
was made to apprehend him to-day. He has
five nays to surrender himself after the judg-
ment Is entered In the District Court. He was
sentenced to two years confinement. but not at
