sPANIARDs AND THE uMAINE.'
Capt. sigsbee Tells OF the Demonstra-
tions Against the Vessel in
Havana bay.

Six bulls were killed during the day.
Our party arrived as the first one was
being hauled away dead. After the
fifth bull had been dispatched, it was
decided, as considerate measure in
favor Of GEN. Parfado, that we should
leave the building and return to Ha-
vana early, so as to avoid the crowd.
We therefore left very quietly, just be-
fore the sixth bull entered the ring.
We tried to reach the ferry promptly,
so that we might return to Havana on
steamer having but few passengers.
Three members of our party were sue
cessful in this attempt, but Gen. Lee,
Lieut.. Holman. and failed On our ar
rival steamer had just left the land
ing. We then hailed small passen-
ger boat, and were pulled to the Maine.
While Gen. Lee and | were conversing
on the quarter deck of the Maine, q
ferryboat came across the bay, carrying
back to Havana large number of peo-
pie from the audience. There was no
demonstration of any kind. The pas
sengers were doubtless those who had
left early, hoping, like ourselves, to
avoid the crowd.
The next ferryboat was densely
crowded Among the passengers were
a number of officers of the Spanish
army and of the volunteers. AS the
ferryboat passed the Maine there were
derisive calls and whistles. Apparent
ly not more than so people participated
in the demonstration. 1t was not gen.
eral, and might have occurred any
where. | have never believed that the
Spanish officers or soldiers took part.
II is but fair to say that this was the
only demonstration of any kind made
against the Maine or her officers, either
collectively or individually, so far as
was made known to me, during our
visit. Adverse feeling toward us was
shown by the apathetic bearing of sol
diers when they saluted. or of trades
men when they supplied our needs.
After the Maine had been sunk. and
when the Montgomery and the Fern
were in Havana, Spanish passenger
boatment exhibited bad temper by
Withholding or delaying answers to our
halls at night. The failure of the Span
ish authorities to compel the boatmen
to answer our halls impressed me as be-
ing very closely akin to active unfriend-
liness. 1t was at the time when the
Vizcaya and the Oquendo were in Ha-
vana, using picket boats and occasional
ly searchlights at night, apparently to
safeguard themselves. Halls were made
sharply and answered promptly be-
tween the Spanish men-of-war and the
boats constantly plying about the har-
Dor at night. 1t must have been plain
on board the Spanish men-of-war that
the boatmen were trifiing with us. This
was after the Vizcaya had visited New
York.-Capt. Charles d. Sigsbee, in
Century.

ROMANCE OF A GLACIER.
After n Separation of Forty
Years.

Many years ago read pathetic
story which is constantly recalled to
mind as the duties of this compilation
compel me to read the records of the
past years, aud reperuse the long
closed letters of my beloved, and live
over again the happy days when we
were all in all to each other. do not
remember all the details of the incident
which so impressed me, but the chief
| facts were these: A married couple
were crossing one of the great glaciers
of the Alpine regions, when fatal ac-
cident occurred. The husband fell
down one of the huge crevasses which
abound on all glaciers--the rope broke,
and the depth of the chasm was So
great that no help could be rendered,
nor could the body be recovered. Over
the wife's anguish at her loss we must
draw the veil of silence. Forty years
afterward saw her, with the guide who
had accompanied them at the time of
the accident, staying at the nearest ho-
tel at the foot Of the glacier, waiting for
the sea of Ice to give up its dead; for,
by the well-known law of glacier pro
gression, the form OF her long-lost hus-
band might be expected to appear, ex-
PEELED from the mouth of the torrent,
about that date. Patiently, and with
unfailing constancy, they watched and
waited. and their hopes were at last re-

recruiting officer of the Third artillery
u. $. A., has already enlisted 600 of
the 500 recruits wanted for that regi-
ment.
]. @. Wilson, of Seattle Wash. and
James Wesley OF Tacoma, arrived at
Seattle Monday from Dawson City,
bringing with him 500 letters and $lO.
600 In gold dust. They probably escaped
drowning near Sixty Mile by breaking
through the ice, which is getting very
rotten. The ice on Lakes Bennett and
Lindeman is so rotten that travel over
il has been abandoned. Mr.. Wilson
states that the report that w. C. Gates.
or "Swiftwater BILL" as he Is COM
monty known, and three other persons
were drowned IL not true. He met them
three days after the report was brought
to Taila. A boat was wrecked ut Thirty
Mile and all the passengers were
drowned. 1t is not known how many
passengers the boat contained or who
they were. Mr. Wilson estimates the
amount of gold that will be brought
down from st. Mlchaels on the first
steamers at twenty-five millions. The
bulk of 1t will be owned by between 100
and 1875 men. Alex Mcdonald will alone
have nearly $3000,000 The news of the
Spanish war had not reached Dawson
when Wilson and Wesley left.
From the tenor of communications
received by Col. Sumner, of Denver,
during the past few days, it appear,
that the Indians In the Department of
Colorado and the Missouri, which are
under his command. are displaying an
unusual restlessness which bode no
good for the settlers In the vicinity of
the various reservations. The danger
of an outbreak in Arizona has become
so imminent that Col. Sumner has or
dered two troops of cavalry from Fort
Huachuca to the Mexican boundary
line. with orders to move along that
line from Nogales, Ariz., to the Gulf of
California. observing a strict patrol of
the entire border. Another troop has
been ordered from Fort Grant to Fort
Huachaca to garrison the latter fort
while the troops are In the field and to
be prepared to assist these troops In
cose of trouble. One troop of the Eighth
cavalry recently was ordered from Fort
Meade. S. D., to Fort Washable wyo.,
and there is a possibility that this force
will be sldetracked and sent to Fort
Niobrara, Neb., instead. Col Sumner
has received petition for troops from
large number of settlers in the portion
of Nebraska, adjoining the Sioux reser-
vatioh, who believe the Sioux are plan
ming a wholesale massacre of whites.

PROMPT AND GOOU WORK.

1t affords THE TINES pleasure
to announce that the crossing Of
the protection leyee to the North
Of Greenyille has been plaoked ia
such a manner as to do away en-
treiy with the trouble 81 crossing
it which was dwelt upon at some
length in an editorial Of this paper
last week. The prompt action Of
the city in remedying this neon
yenienee will be highly appreciat-
ed by all who use the road, and it
is believed that the revenue 50
brought to the city viii far exceed
the expense of making the leyee
passable, In another column of
this paper will be found a letter
on the subject, which plainly
shows the interest which the
planters of the WintervilIe region
feel in the road. Unfortunately
the character Of the ground is such
that the road is a very difficult and
costly one to keep in order, ut
least for some miles North Of
Greenvlte. but it isone of the most
important in the county. and III,
before stated, has suffered 50 much
from overhows and frequent
changes as to be a yearly source /
Of vexation and loss to those who
use it, as well as to the merchants
who look to it as a valuable feeder

GreenviIle's Christmas.

For a week, beginning Monday
and ending on Saturday night.
Dec. 25th, Greenyille was the
Invest town in Mississippi.
The weather was horrible. Il
Grained and blew and friz and
thew and slit and snew" all at the
same time, but nothing abated the
Christmas ardor that seemed
to possess the souls and bodies OF
every man, woman and child in the
surging throngs that blocked the
sidewalks of Washington Avenue,
Walnut and Poplar. Store keepers
and clerks were driven nearly
frantic, and the day Of rest was
never more appreciated than the
Sunday which followed the week
of excitement and turmoil. The
occasion was especially notable for
several things. One was tho
amount of money shot away in
fireworks. For two nights it fair
ly rained Roman candles and sky
rockets, while all day long ths
incessant sharp rattle of fire
crackers, mixed with the booming
Of cannon crackers made the towR
miniature battle ground. There
was no ordinance against fireworks
and the small boy rioted in unre-
buked ecstasy. Tin horns by the
hundred contributed to the pande-
monium, and troops of young
darkies patrolled the streets until
long past midnight, crucifying the
ear with burlesque and discordant
efforts to play "A Hot Time in The
Old Town Tonight" Another
noticeable feature of the celebra-
ton was the unusually large
quantity of whisky in evidence.
1t is estimated that more liquor
was consumed than at any previous
Christmas in the city's history, but
with the exception of the smash
ing of fine plate glass window at
Hafters' not a single act of law
lessness of a serious nature is re-
ported. The combination of I'M
limited whiskey and fireworks is a !
very dangerous one, but Green
vile awoke on Sunday morning
no whit the worse for her Christ
mas glorification.
But the anniversary was not given
up entirel y to noise and riot.
1t was especially day of hospi-
Lality and delightful gatherings Of
and despite the inclemency
If the weather the church services
was well attended. Complaints
come from some other towns
which are suffering under the de-
preston of five cent cotton. but
he casual observer would have
seen nothing in Greenville to indi
'ate that the season was not one
If unalloyed jubilation and pros
oerity. The Delta people come
principally from good old English
took, but they don't ''take their
pleasure sadly as has been said
II their progenitors. Indeed they
re chiefly remarkable for making
he best of things and rising super
or to all disadvantages.
