await the arrival of the troops from
Tampa
The British consul at Santiago has
teleeraphed that Lieut.. -Hobson and his
men are we'll and are rece,yinp good
treatment, He had called upon them
himself.
The few men landed at Guantanamo
last FRIDAY AS An army of invasion, have
had to fight to save themselves from de-
strnction. Saturday afternoon the Span
ish regulars aud Cuban guerillas sgoop-
ed down on the little band and the fight
lasted for l3 hours. Four OF the Ameri-
cans were killed. It g not known what
the Spanish losses are.
II is said the first division of the INIT
ed States army left Tampa for Key West
on Sunday night. They have been laav-
Ing r5gnlarly, by newspaper report, every
| day for the last two weeks, but 1t seems
likely that this last report is true.
Ambassador Hay says there is no foun-
datlon for the statement that Manila hes
fallen. Az army of $1,000 left hey West
on Monday morning for Guantanamo
This IS "A seaport within 40 miles OF San
tlago. Thirty two transports were re.
CURED. They we're conveyed by battla
ships. A second expedition against Por-
| to Rico is being fitted out.
1t Is announced that General Lee will
command the expedition to Havana when
the time comes to strike that place, which
may not be before September. It is re-
ported that the Spanish Cadiz fleet is
unfit to sail and will not quit that port.
The flagship San Francisco which ran
ashore near Cape Cod IN fog has been
released. 1t Is rumored that the Span

ing to Manila to give battle to Dewey and
that he has gone out to meet them.

nouncement that troops for the invasion
Of Cnba had left Key West on Tuesday
| morning, it was announced on Tuesday
| that not transport ship had lert. 1t is
| about the same as with the relief for
Dewey. 1t is safe to assume that the
| war department will do nothing bnt
founder and do things on paper. The
navy department must conduct the war
wholly or Its own responsibility and
without aid from the war department.
Spain Is said to be anxious To have
Dewey occupy Manila and thus prevent,

Feminine fashion as an effective ele-
ment in warfare is one of the UNIQUE
issues that have come to the front in
these history-making days. The VEN
en- of Washington, it seems, have re-
solved themselves into a patriotic league
for the purpose Of inducing their fair
fashionable friends all over the country
not to buy French millinery. This belli-
cose boycott of the much,adored Paris
ian bonnet Is intended as international
retaliation, inasmuch as France assum-
ed friendly attitude toward Spain In
the present unpleasantnesS. 1t win
mean, say these self-sacrificing sisters,
an annual loss of 1000, 900 to French
importers. But they-the women-love
their country more than the coveted
pieces of headgear, and so this odd IN
dertaking of the fair patriots pro-
crosses with a long list of prestiged
patronesses in the national capital. No
matter how this return charge of the
fair 400 may end, this is not the first
time feminine headgear has played q
part in history. Not only the big hat
has beena vexation to the modern thea
ter-goer and the inspirer Of new munich
pal laws for It's suppression, but as far
back as 500 years ago it was constant
worry to the mandate-making sterner
sex. One conspicuous instance Is the

Essser Bull Fights at Seville.

We are returning from the social
function of the week; for, alas! even
gay and lazy Seville has it's social
functions which must be borne with.
1t is the tabalado, or inspection of the
black bulls which, with great pomp
and ceremony and at the cost OF a
kings ransom, are to be killed to-mor-
row by the most celebrated matadors in
the kingdom. While there is a great
lack of money in Seville to buy bread,
there is always enough money forth.

ury, to pay the way into the bull-ring;
and every one in Seville who is good
Christian will attend the Easter bull.

he has to pawn his household gods and
sacred images to do so.-Century.

A Taste of Discipline.

The woman who insists on dragging
her helpless child into the most crowd
ed Of shops is abroad in the land this
year, as usual. encountered her, or a
certain variety Of her, in the waiting
room Of big store day before yester-
day. She wasn't quite the common
variety, for her child was not helpless.
In fact, it was quite evident that the
child had dragged the mother, and not
the mother the child. She must have
been years old, and was so spoiled"
well, as my old nanny used to put
it, she was spoiled till her presence
was really an offense to the olfactory
sense. She wanted something her
mother couldn't give her, and she pro-
ceeded to scream. The mother coaxed.
The mother begged. The child scream
ed. The child danced with rage, and
then she held her breath. The fright
ened mother tried to pacify her, and
then when the child grew purple in
the face and seemed on the point Of
choking, the poor woman began to
cry.
ooh, what shall do? What shall l
do?" she sobbed. 1.-THE doctor told
me not to get her into tantrum. She'll
die, know she will!'
Just at this juncture an elderly
woman, with square chin, stepped
up. She did not say a word. She sim
ply reached down, lifted that child,
laid her across her knee, and gave her
several resounding spanks. The as
tonished child caught her breath in
stantly. She was too surprised to go
on screaming. She simply stared. The
mother began to say things to the ell
derby woman with the square jaw, but
the elderly woman walked calmly
away. There was the look in her face
as of a great desire gratifed.-Wa

Wessey's sermon.

Now and again, no doubt, the text ID
everything, the sermon nothing. There
is am anecdote of London bishop who,
having read that story of John Wesley
cutting out every word Of his discourse
that his servant maid did not under
stand, determined to preach to a cou1f
try congregation the simplest sermon
he could write. He chose an elemenf
airy subject, and took as his text, 'IDe
food hath said in his heart there is 10
God" On leaving the church he asked
the parish clerk what he Thought OF
the sermon. ooh, my lord" said be- III
was very fine very fine and grand. I've
been talking It over with Mr.. Bearo'
and we said how fine it was. But, afOei
ah, we can't help thinking that tbei'
is God.'
