Under this fierce heat the rare metal ruthenium which, used to be deemed all but infuslble, readily melts, but apparent only the faintest traces of fusion. On this ac- count osmium cannot be prepared in sufficient quantity to make it very useful in tue arts.

An Astonished Editor.

The most surprised man in Ponce after the surrender was the publisher of daily paper who was told by Gen. eral Wilson that his presses and other property would not be cOnfiScated. Out of pure gratitude he told the Americans he would confine the news of the day to runaways, society and police court items and wouldn't say a word about the capture of the city. When informed that he could hustle out his reporters and write up story of the surrender if he felt SD disposed, he almost dropped over in his parOx- ysm of joy, and offered to send Gene ral Wilson tue proofs of the first edi- tion. "Damn it, man." General Will son said, "l don't want to see your proofs. Go ahead and tell the story just as it is. We don't censor our newspapers, and we believe in a free press" This unheard of liberty so completely upset the editor that in the first edition he abused the Spaniards in the purest Castiliau. and expressed his sympathy for the new cause.

crrx AND COUNTY

SI~IN A ND SoD ~ I'Y
 Star: A republican executive com- mittee of i've members has been chosen as follows, c. W Wright, Otis Hale. Herbert Penney, Henry Meyer and J. M. Ormsby.
 Citizen: Nearly all the schools in the county opened last Monday with a general increase in attendance. There is marked increase in the Tanque Verde district, where forty six scholars are enrolled.
 Star; Hon. E. J. Trippel, register of the U. $. land office, returned from Yuma yesterday where he was sum- moned as witness in the Gold King case, the bonanza in which Colonel Epes Randolph aud associates are as- sOciated.
 Star; The development in the new gold finds in the Canon del Orc conti- nue to hold out as depth is made. At % feet in one of the Purcell group the vein of ore is over three feet wide Of solid ore with good walls The same coalition seems to hold good Tn other claims which are being devel- oped.
 Citizen: The Methodistchurch has been put in order for the coming con- ference and is much improved in ap- pedrance. The floor has been painted, the seats, wainscOtting and altar rail varnished aud the walls retouched. The interior Is now bright aud at- tractiye, and the society no doubt feels touch of pride in the improve. ments wrought.
 Citizen: On Saturday evening next, the doors of the ueW San Agustin hotel will be thrown open to tue pub lie, and Manager Low will welcome all who cbouse Go be his guests for Lbe evening. The conversion of the old cathedral siffssiI late halei has been a work Of considerable magnitude, and its completion Is very gratifying to the citizens Oi Tucson generally. Ex- ternally, the building remains prac- tically unchanged, but inside there is Of course a great difference, caused rather by the free use of paint and the introduction of furniture, electric lights, etc, than by structural changes. The interior is bright and attractive. There are about twenty five sleeping rooms, all large, pleasant and well furnished. The novel feat ure of this new hotel will no doubt prove to be one of its charms to east ern visitors.

Republic and Monarchy.

The present conflict between the
monarchy and the republic has re-
vealed the equipment and the re-
sources Of both. 1t is evident that
the war machinery OF the United
States, in so tar as it had been or
ganized at all and money had been
spent upon it, was in the pink OF
perfection, and that both the army
and navy were animated with the
invIncible spirit of sound minds
and reposGful consciences. Spain,
on the other hand, after pouring
outImmense treasure, appears with
ill-equipped and undisciplined
forces, the ships Of her navy being
barely able to turn their screws
and their armament being next to
useless through deterioration or
the inability OF the men to use it.
Spain is swamped by corruption.
For the last year it has been
rumored that the defence Of Cuba
was for those in command money
making business throughout that
would soothe the dreams of avar-
ice. The patriotic resolves OF
Weyler that no Spanish Govern
ment should be permitted to aban-
don that hopeless struggle very
probably originated in commerce
rather than in the judgment of the
statesman. The wars progress
has certainly furnished respectable
evidence that truth was al the bot
tom OF the story heard with amaze
ment by US that even when the
Vizcaya was in New York harbor
in March last sellers of goods to
her were required to make out bills
beyond the price, for presentation
to the home Government.
In America and Spain we have
very healthy republic and sadly
diseased monarchy. We will leave
them in that state to the political
philosophers.
Washington sentinel., 1898-07-16
Bring spain to Her Knees.

Spain, beaten, crippled. power
less-her navy gone, her colonies
all at our disposition, and her
armies in Cuba and the Philippines
certain soon to be faced with the
alternative Of unconditional sur
render or extinction--fancies that
she still isl in a position to prescribe
the terms Of that peace which alone
can save her from utter prostra-
ton.
She will not awaken from her
dreams until American guns thun-
der in her home ports.
Spain needs that rough rousing
to shake her into sane knowledge
OF her real place in the world. She
is now another Portugal and never
more can be world power.
Whatever may be left to her after
this war she will owe to the mod
Grafton, the magnanimitY oi the
United States. She is as helpless
in our grasp as her own Admiral
CerVera is. Yet she struts and
boasts and says what she will and
will not accept from the Power
against which she has had the in
sane presumption to draw the
sword.
Spain's proper attitude is on her
knees begging for mercy. Until
she is made to understand that, the
work OF whipping the idiot pride
out Of her should go on.
Watson's feet will bring her to
her senses.
Washington sentinel., 1898-07-16
No Letting Up.

1t is reported IN Washington that
the old peace-at-any-price cabal
has tried to dissuade the President
from his purpose to send flying
squadron to the Spanish coast.
The members Of the War Board, it
is said, at a council advised the
President to let the present orders
stand, which require the sailing OF
the fleet at the earliest possible
moment, and they stated to him
that this course, in their judgment.
sis more likely to bring about a
speedy settlement than any other
that can be adopted"
1t is gratifying to learn that the
President took the same view and
that no change will be made in the
plans.
The first good effect Of the order
"On to Cadiz" was seen in the
return ofCamara's feet from Suez,
II will now be where Watson can
smash it, if the war shall continue
long enough.
The second good result was wit
messed in the rapid growth of the
peace sentiment in Spain. 1t is
this which has forced out the
Sagasta Cabinet.
On every account-for the moral
effect in Spain in promoting peace
and insuring order, and for an ex-
ample OF our determination and
power to Europe-there should be
no change in this plan.
