PARIS. Nov. 1.-The French papers de-

LONDON, Nov. 1.-The Paris CORE
spOndent OF the Daily Telegraph says:
"The disagreement between the American
and Spanish Peace Commissions. which

caused alarm throughout Europe. IS hard

THE Spaniards who are in a position

II This proposition is not accepted Spain

But brown comes the autumn. and scar grows

A Song of Pie.

Song Of Pie. Oh. sing of the close where the pie plant grows In luxuriance wild and free. And pumpkin pies of monstrous size Hang ripe on the pumpkin tree Where the "lemOn-cream" like fresh baked dream Gl0ws white fin the noOn-day glare. And the "custards" cold. with their hearts Of gold, Shed fragrance on the air. Oh. sing of the land where the mince trees stand With their branches spreading wide. And laden low with nuts of dough And wOndrous things inside Rich remnants of the foods we love When in their proper sphere: Beefsteaks and stew and things we knew In cornbeef hash last year. Oh- sing of a time in happy cline When the pie trees fruit shall fall With ease and grace in the open face At no expense at all: An, then indeed will the heartless greed Of the lunchroom keeper fail, And our tongues will spurn mince pies that And cruSts that make us vail.

Ereots OF a Bee stine.

An English physician relates an in.
stance Of a lady who was stung by
bee. At the first moment she seemed to
pay very little attention to it, but very
soon her face became flushed and spots
appeared all over her body. Suddenly
she developed a most severe attack of
asthma, finding great difficulty in
breathing. Another instance is that of
a young lady who was stung on the
back of her head by an ordinary honey
beo. In less than five minutes her face
began to swell, and very marked red
and white spots appeared all over the
surface of the body. Tho swelling ox-
tended over the entire person, accompa-
MED by severe pain, burning and giddi
hess. Tho eyes were almost closed and
tho countenance was so distorted as to
be unrecognizable. Very free bathing
in soda water, with II little soda taken
internally, and hot applications to the
feet and thorough massage finally afford
ed relief, but it was some hours before
the patient recovered from what was
truly an alarming condition. Violent
attacks OF nervousness accompanied the
trouble, and the sense of suffocation
was almost intolerable. Tho young wo-
man had been stung il nuInbcE OF times
before without any apparent unpleasant
result Tho physicians were of the opin-
ion that the bee had been feeding upon
soluo extremely poisonous plant, which
became concentrated in tho venom OF
the sting. Be that as it may, the condi-
ton was such as to excite grave appro.
henlion, tho more so as it was several
day; brforo recovery was complete

Rubio, one of the speakers, said that the

day was not tar distant when Spain
would show them what Spanish soldiers
could do, and that the Americans were
very much mistaken in believing Spain
TO be weak nation because she had not
been able 70 subdue thirty thousand Gu
bans, but that was due to the fact that
the Cubans were tho sons of Spaniards,
having the same blood and the same
valor. Hut had they been Americans
they would have been annihilated long
ago. The orator received deafening ap-
plause. The anti American sentiment is

The Spanish HurI Insults at the
Names Grew.

Havana, via Key West, Feb. 3.-Whep
Gen. Blanco left Havana several days ago
the palace officials were not reluctant to
let it be known that he had gone on q
shopping tour among the insurgent chiefs,
that he took with him plenty of money
ior the purpose, and that he would soon
return victorious with their purchased
submission.
1t now seems that Blauco was sadly de-
ceived by the utterly unfouIded conf
dence which his subordinates had in. the
salable disposition of Garcia, Rati and
other eastern chiefs. Rabi, instead of
presenting himself subnissiYely, at once
moved with all his men to Gen. LuQue,
but in most aggressive manner, COM
pletely defeating him and increasing his
sorrow by mortally wo,inding his only
son, who is reported as having since died.
The Spaniards having lost faith in tn e
success of Blanco's trip are now incensed
against him, and threaten to make de-
monstration against him as soon as he
returns. Even at Madrid, according to
the cable dispatches of yesterday, his
failure has produced n depressing effect.

to appoint his friends, as he was entitled
to do. ana TO make things worse the ap
