SINKING OF THE SHIP.
Further Details of the Going Down of

Further Details or the Goine boWn oI
 the Maria Teresa.
 Newport, News, Nov. 9.-The United States collier Leonidas and the repair ship Vulcan have arrived in Hampton Roads. They started from Santiago with the Maria Teresa. Officers from both vessels give substantially the same story of the laundering as that given out by Lieutenant Commander Harris, who was in command of the Maria Teresa, and the last man to leave her before she was abandoned in the terrific gale off San Salvador These officers speak in highest terms of the brave and gallant work of the seamen during the storm and say that officers and men acted no- bly. Tn the hold of the Leonidas are 23 of the guns of the destroyed Spanish fleet ranging in size from to II inches. Some of these are still loaded, as the charges could not bo extracted. The raft upon which Lieutenant Hobson left the Merrimac after he had blown up the boat in the mouth of Santiago har- bor. is also in the hold, though some- what disfigured from shell. The off, eers and men are in excellent condition.

A Queer New England Betrtohal.

From the Youths Companion.
 Hawthorne found romance on the shores of old New England, and there is a good deal of it unminded in the modern life of the Yankees. The following story of love and marriage, strange as it may seem, is known to the writer to be true:
 Years ago a summer boarder at a cot tage on point of land which formed the protecting arm of the harbor of a fishing town in Massachusetts was shown a girl baby only few months old. He looked at the babe and admired, then said to the mother:
 ''will you give me that babe for my wife?" o-
 The mother had known the young man for several summers; she liked him, and therefore answered promptly, "Yes.,'
 'Will you promise never to tell her that you have selected me her husband?"
 "Yes."
 The conditions of the singulsr bethothal were observed. The girl baby grew up, and summer after summer the yos2g man courted her. When she was eighteen he married her, and not till then did she know that she had been betrothed to her husband while in her cradle. Can old romance be more romantic than this story of a New England fishing town?

startling fact that the government
is largely dominated by Catholic
ISM" Well, it is somewhat a fact
that the government is dominated
by Catholicism, but we don't know
that it is a startling fact in the
sense that any one, not even
Baptist, should be startled by it.
For instance, the domination OF
Catholicism began in this country
when Catholics discovered Amer
lea, and Catholic English lord
and his Catholic followers esta-
blished civil and religious liberty
|! in the Catholic province of Mary
land, whence that fundamental
principle of free government redi-
ated until it found recognition
throughout the land, and was fin
ally engrafted in the constitution
of the United States. and now finds
a place in the constitution of every
State of the Union. So far from
accounting this domination OF our
government by the spirit of Cat
holicism a fact which should star
tie timid people, we, for one, say
long may such domination con-
tinue, and may its beneficent fruits
be forever vouchsafed our people.

Three Doctors in Consultation

From Benjamin Franklin.
"When you are sick, what you like best
is to be chosen for medicine In the
first place; what experience tells you Is
best, to be chosen in the second place;
what reason ii. o.. Theory says is best is
to be chosen in the place. But if you
can get DIR. Inclination, DR.. Experience,
and DIR. Reason to hold consultation
together. they will give you the best ad-
vice that can be taken"
When you have bad cold DIR. Inclina-
ton would recommend Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy because it Is pleasant
and safe to take. DR.. Experience would
recommend it because it never fails to
effect speedy and permanent cure. DIR.
Reason would recommend it because it
is prepared on scientific principles, and

man OF this place. says ouuSo
Sutherlin carried every ward IN
his parish over Mr.. Brazeale, ex-
cept one small French ward, COM
posed almost exclusively of Cath
olics, and that the Catholic people
voted to a man for their cOreli-
zionist Mr.. Brazeale. Catholics
will always vote for one of their
number for any Office, which &C
counts for the startling fact that
the government is largely domi-
mated by Catholicism. 1t is deci-
dedly wrong for any religious per-
suasion to thus take part in poll
tics and it would be sad day for
Mr.. Breazale if he were to run for
Office backed by the Catholics OF
the district, he would come to the
front with very small vote out
side of Nachitoches and Rapides
where there is large element of
Catholics. Judge Sutherlin being
a Baptist, would have almost a 90
lid vote in the northern end of the
district, where there are but few
Catholics. On this hypothesis
Mr.. Breazeal would scarcely get a
vote in Bienville parish, in the
Oct. 5th, primary"
The above is reproduced from
the last issue of the Louisiana Ad-
vance published at Arcadia, in
Bienville Parish.
| The SENTINEL will not dispute
the fact that the people of that
"small French ward, composed al
most exclusively of Catholics
voted for Mr.. Breazeal in the re-
cent primary election in the 4th
congressional district, for it knows
nothing about it. 1t takes it for
granted that If the inhabitants OF
that small French ward did vote
for Mr.. Breazeal, they had some
good reason for doing 30, and on
ly availed themselves of their pri-
vilege as American citizens to cas-
their ballot for whom they chose
But the SENTINEL, does de-
nounce as unfounded in fact the
Advances assertion that "Catho
lies will always vote for one o.
their number for any Office" Tha
is a gratuitous fling at a large, en-
lightened, and influential body o
citizens in this State, which is al
) together uncslled for. AS a rule
A the Catholics of this State are Ii

A HARMLESS FEVER.
Iberville South.

The editorial silence of the press
of New Orleans on the yellow fe-
yer question suggests occult influ-
ences at work. The silence is i'm
pressive and instead of dissipa-
ting, creates fear in the public
mind.
We derlore the visitation of yell
low jack and deeply sympathize
with every afflicted community,
but the conduct of the city press
is somewhat mystifying. 1t seems
to us that the situation should be
faced bravely and honestly and
that no effort should be made to
hide or magnify the trouble.
Last year the announcement OF
the existence of the disease caused
widespread fear and general
alarm, but this year the people Of
the South were in a calm and quiet
mood ready to accept the state
ment of the physicians that the
disease had undergone change
since 1878 and was now no more
to be dreaded or feared than our
| we'll known endemic malarial.
By openly and candidly admit
ting the existence of a few cases
of the fever in the city and by
showing it's comparative harmless
ness, the press could have done
good service, but its silance has
been interpreted to the detriment
of the people of the City and State.
Whatever the influences are that
have been at work in press circles
in sitting comment on this matter
they have been for evil. People
can be educated easily; fooled fol
