THE PERSIAN WEDDING.
Quite an Interesting Lecture by Rev.
Yohannon, at the Baptist Church

Last night a good audience as
sembled at the Firt Baptist Church,
to hear Rev. Yohannou, a Persian
minister, deliver his lecture on Per
sian Customs.
The Rev. gentleman took as his
subject, "a Persian Wedding" and
made the lecture the more inter
esting by having nine young ladies
and gentlemen on the stage with
him, clothed in Oriental costumes,
as they would appear at wedding
feast.
We learned from the lecture that
only one railroad pierces Persia,
and that one a short line, some
eleven miles long. We also learned
that the Persian women are not
sent to school, nor can they read or
write, and are only taught to use
their needle in embroidery work
and duties about the house.
Mr. Yohannon introduced the
audience to a character "Kurd, "
whom he said roamed over Persia
seeking whom he might devour,
and that human life in the Kurds
(or TurksD estimation did not
amount to as much as killing a
chicken in this country.
He said girls were frequently
married at the age OF nine, and
when one of them reached the age
of fifteen years she was called an
"old maid, =" and was hard to get
off of hand, especially if she had
blue eyes or red hair, the Persian
measure of beauty beauty being a
dark complexion with black hair
and eyes. The lecturer then paid
a compliment to the Presbyterians
in his country, dong good work in
a reform way.
Told his experience in travelling
to the United States, his impress
sion of New York; bis first trip in
an elevator and many amusing sit
uations he found himself in by not
knowing the customs of the people
of the United States. His lecture
is entertaining, and at the same
time instructive, and should draw
good paying houses wherever de
livered. We congratulate the con-
gregation of the First Baptist
Church for entertaining in oui
midst gentleman who can enter
tain himself bv his lecture.

McKINLEY's MESSAGE.

President McKinleys message
was given to Congress Yesterday
and read by the journal clerk.
The capitol building was crowded
to suffocation to hear what the
president had to say. The message
tells why the Maine was sent to
Havana, and how it was received
in a friendly manner by the Span
ish officials. Then the mes
sage treats Of the great catastro-
phe to the Maine, giving history
of the friendly manner the war
ships of Spain acted in taking care
of the wounded and helping in the
rescue work. The message then
recites abont the Board of Inquiry
setting out to learn what agency
was used in the destruction of the
ship and of this report has already
been made public. The president
then states that he has notified the
Queen Regent of Spain of the
courts finding and he hopes that
the Spanish throne will be guided
in their answer by honor and JUS
tice. He lays the report in the
hands Of Congress for the consider
tion Of tn t body.

WAR TALK GALORE.
General Lee Is Advised that
a Radical Step Is about
To BE Taken.
SPAIN FIRM AND UNYIELDING.
Summary Of Passing Events, both
Present and Future, Point
10 War
SPAIN FIRM AND UNYIELDING.

President Mckinley has wired
Consul General Lee, at Havana
that radical steps are about to he
taken in dealing with the Cuban
question and asks General Lee what
means he has in protecting himself
aud Americans on the Island, This
is interpreted by the news gather
ers to mean that the President is
warning Gen. Lee to look for him
self and the Americans in Havana.
The President requested an imme-
diate reply to his cypher to Gen.
Lee, but up to late hour Sunday
evening no reply had been received.
The ministers at Madrid are cry
ing peace but show by their actions
that peace they parade means
war, rather than to give in to the
Cubans or the friendly offerings of
the United States,
Large sums of money is being
given Spain to carry on the war, by
men of means.
The papers in Madrid have this to
say of the threatening attitude be-
tween the two nations: The Madrid
correspondent of the Frankfort Zei-
tung says
"Senor Gullon, the Minister OF
Foreign Affairs, has informed me
that an extremely threatening note
has arrived from Washington re-
garding the cessation of war in Gu
ba, He added
mo matter how one regards the
affair, a rupture can now hardly be
avoided"
The Madrid correspondent of the
Berliner TaPeblatt says:
"Spain will not only refuse to al
low American interference in assist
ing the suffering Cubans, but will
decline to pay indemnity unless it is
shown unmistakably that the Span
ish authorities were responsible for
the Maine explosion. If President
Mckinley demands these two things
war is unavoidable.
The following is a summary of
events that transpired at Washing
ton Yesterday:
Washington, March 28.-By day
break the corridors and galleries of
the Capitol were jammed, and at
noon President Mckinley sent in his
message and report, which was a
short document saying the cOnclu-
sions of the Court of Inquiry was
that the loss OF the Maine was not
due to the negligence of its officers
or crew; that the ship was destroy
ed BY a submarine mine, which
caused a partial explosion of two or
more forward magazines; that there
was no evidence obtained to fix the
responsibility. Extra guards are
stationed around the American
Consulate in Havana. Gen. Lee is
getting the addresses of all Ameri-
cans in Cuba, so that they can be
warned in case of emergency.
The Mangrove left New York to
day for Havana to be on hand to
take all Americans away.
Spain asks further delay, and is
willing to grant home rule in Cuba,
and will withdraw troops, but the
flag must remain, and says that
Cuban independence cannot be
bought with money.
