taste to wear a hat or bonnet to
church. They always go bareheaded.
There is no doubt of one thing. The
Mexicans go to church with but one
purpose, and that is to worship.
1t might well be imagined that Mexi-
co, with it's population substantially
Indian, could scarcely be a republic.
The so-called "sister republic is as
rigid a despotism as Russia. Every
thing, the choice of governors of the
states, deputies to congress, and even
of the mayors of the cities, is in the
hands of the president. There are
nominally elections; there are in fact
none. This despotism is not the
growth of centuries, as in Russia.
The Mexican car has created a sys-
tenn of government purely his own.
He has converted the form and ma
chinery of a republic into the most abb
solute despotism. According to its
written constitution Mexico, like the
United States, is a federal republic.
It's constitution is modelled upon ours.
The Mexican autocrat has managed to
get into his complete control all the
details and ramifcations of federal,
state and municipal government. This
| network, which he has spread over
! Mexico, was in no degree prepared for
him; it is wholly his own work; and he
must keep his personal watch over eve
ry part of it. He is a man of wonder
full energy. He has had and has now a
great many enemies, but has far fewer
than he once had. In Maximillian's
| time he was scarcely more than a ban
| dit in the mountains. When he u.s.
urped the presidency the country was

THE wARLIkE LA LUCIA.
Havana Newspaper Says War Has

Havana Newspaper Says War Has
Been Practically Declared.
Havana, March 29.-Deep interest is
felt here in the news received from the
United States. La Lucha, in an edi-
torlal, says:
1.-THE United States note to Spain, de-
manding that a date be fixed to end
the hostilities, is simply a declaration
of war. 1t was not issued until after
the finding of the United States court
of inquiry had been received, which
finding is without scientific basis and
is open to question, even upon the
part of the most prejudiced. President
Mckinley has been forced by lingo
opinion and the sensational newspaper
press to close the debate on the ques-
ton and shield Captain Sigsbee, who
is one of the most popular officers in
the United States navy.
1T was needless to send the Maine
10 Havana, as American interests were
amply protected by General Lee and
also by the Cuban government, the
latter often acting to its disadvantage
and in favor of American interests.
1t is well for Spain TO know at last the
real purpose of the money loving
Americans. Spain now knows what
to expect and how to act"
La Lucha then warns the United
States that If she expects to have all
her own way in Cuba "she can only do
so with cannon" In conclusion La
Lucha says; THE United States is
rich and Spain is poor, but the end Of
the war may find Spain with a good
portion of American money"

HIS WIFE ARRESTED.
BOndsmen Charge Mrs. SzydlowfId With
Acts to Defraud Creditors.

Mrs. Justyna Szydlowski, who figured
prominently few months ago as the assignee
of the property of Chief Burgess Tabor, was
last night put under bail by Justice Toomey
in the sum of 1000 to answer at court on a
charge of fradulently disposing Of property
to cheat and defraud creditors.
The prosecutors are John Berg, John
Wasser and Frank Balshanic. They allege
that at the time Swift, Armour and Other
creditors of Tabor attached the property Mrs
SzydlOwski claimed to have purchase from
Tabor the prosecutors in this case gave Sc
curity to the amount of $500 that should the
creditors win the suit Mrs Szydlowski would
have the goods attached, or their equiveant
at hand to satisfy their claims. The prosecu.
tors allege that since then Mrs. Szydlowski
has disposed of a horse and wagon and a
quantity of talow valued at 81. 100.
