A PLEASANT REUNION.


On Monday afternoon, Mrs. M. E.
Jones entertained in honor Of her SIS
ter, Mrs. keenan,, of Denver, better
known to her Denison friends as Min
ME Miles. Nj. Jones mother, Mrs.
Jones. who taught school here some
years ago and is lovingly remembered
by many as their first teacher, was also
present. Mrs. Jones' life has been full
of good deeds and loving acts for others
and she has among her countless ad.
mirers no warmer friends than her first
pupils. The guests had delightful
visit together recalling the days that
are gone and the changes that only
time can make. They also united in
sending a round robin letter to- Miss
Lille Plimpton which will doubtless
give the recipient as much pleasure as
it did the senders. Mrs. Jones served
very nice supper and in every way
gave her guests a delightful and long
to be remembered afternoon.

METHODIST.

Now the war with Spain is doing
with the ! cent piece what retail trad
ers and the postal department. failed to
do. The measure which congress franz
ed for raising revenues with which to
carry on the war makes it necessary
for every one engaged in business to
handle the copper cent. The telegraph
cannot be used without affixing cent
revenue stamp on the written mes
sage, and no check can pass over the
counter of bank and be honored with
out similar treatment. This war meas
ure has thus forced on the Pacific coast
without opposition coin which it
would have taken years Of coaxing to
persuade it to accept by any ordinary
process And it is here now as q fixture.

The prohibitionists nominated the
following ticket: For auditor, e. A.
Stone; clerk, Harry johnson; recorder,
F. L. johnson; attorney, Mrs P. w.
Harding; coroner, w. R. Temple;
supervisor, Salem Town
The placing of this ticket in the field
has filled the democrats with joy as
they think it will take hundred votes
away from the republican party. The
ticket is good one as far as it's person
mel is concerned but it is throwing a
vote away to cast it for them.

Forbidden Foods In Cuba.

Military surgeons familiar with Cuba
say the best army ration there is bread
or hard biscuit, beans, potatoes, beef
and mutton. The only beverage recon.
mended is coffee, not too strong. Alec.
hol in any form is forbidden. Salt
meats should be sparingly used. The
native Cubans and Porto Ricans drink
coffee habitually, and. though not large,
they are we'll built, agile and healthy.

Americas Mariners.

A story is told of an old commodore
of the Boston yard whose method of
measuring religious affairs was with
the same inexorable rule used for tenn
por,sh things. One Sunday morning he
was aroused from his nap by something
out of the usual routine being announ-
ced from the pulpit, and he sternly ad-
dressed the chaplain with:
whats that? What's that?''
The chaplain demurely repeated the
notice "that by order of the bishop of
the diocese divine services will be per-
formed in this chapel on Thursday
evening next" etc.
by whose order?"
"By order Of the bishop Of the do
eese, sir"
"welln' thundered the commodore,
'I'll let you know that am bishop Of
this diocese, and when l want services
in this chapel I'll let you know. Pipe
DOWN. and he cleared the chapel.
On one occasion he heard a different
voice in the pulpit from usual, and look
Jag up he asked: "Who is that up there
Is that you, Billy MeMasters?"
"Yes, sir"
Billy was religious foreman in the
yard who sometimes helped the chap
lain along.
"Come down out of that, )" thundered
the commodore. "When I want a re-
lief for the chaplain III appoint one.
Don't you ever let me catch you up
there again." And he cleared the
chapel again.

Red Cross Girl Feed.

When the North Dakota regiment

them, shown into the spacious dining
room, presided over by the ladies of

the soldier boys. The bill of fare was

ular. enjoyed the repsst immensely,
and when he had finished he sat back

He then looked at the pretty girl and
fumbled in his pocket. Finally he
found what he was looking for, and
extended his hand with 10 cents in it
s'What is that?n asked the society
bud, smile dimpling her pretty face.

vate, somewhat embarrassed by her
manner.

said. "This luncheon is given by the

cubans' Shady Methods.

A correspondent writing from San
tiago says:
Since the surrender of the Spanish
troops the Americans have learned
much concerning the methods of the
Cubans. A Spanish general under
Linares said to me, while praising the
valor of the Americans: 1--WE could
have whipped all the revolutionists on
the island in two months If We could
have found them"
Within a week from the time the
United States forces landed Cuban
veracity was at a discount. The Cuban
leaders lied about everyting-the num-
Der of available men they had, to begin
with. Garcia promised to supply 5000
soldiers properly armed and equipped,
but when he parsded his army before
General Shafter thele We're less than
800. They were all armed with Con-
nectieut-made machetes, whose utility
as u war weapon was not subsequently
proved, and with Springfield and Krag-
Jorgensen rifles furnished by the United
States.
As far as can be determined, not a
single Spanish soldier was killed in open
warfare by Cuban. Garciaand his men
were permitted the widest latitude in
operating against the Spaniards. To
Garcia was entrusted the duty of head
ing off General Pando and 5000 Span
ish troops from reaching Santiago from
Holgain. Pando's route was known,
and there was no apparent reason why
Garcia did not engage him, or, at least,
hold him back until American re-en-
forcements arrived. Pando, who reach
ed Santiago after the surrender, says
he did not see a single Cubln soldier
from the time he left Holguin until he
reached Santiago.
The only active work in which Gu
bans participated was at El Caney,
where the American troops made
brave assault upon the Spanish fortifi-
cations and captured them. The work
of the Cubans here was of most bois-
ferrous character. They principally
distinguished themselves, according to
American officers, by killing Spaniards
who had been wounded and ia ''eutting
their way to the rear from the lighting
line"
One reason why General Shafter did
not invite Garcia and his staff to be
present at the formal eapitulatiOn of
the eSpanish troops was that General
Linares, the Spanish commander ask
ed to be spared the humiliation of fleeing
paraded before the Cubans, who In no
way shared the glory Of the victory of
the American forces.

The Burlington train had just pulled
out of Hastings, and the conductor was
working his way up the car punching
tickets and tearing off coupons. He had
got half through the smoker when he
came to an inebriated man wearing a
wide sloueh hat and brown overalls.
The msn had all sorts of patriotic orna-
mentation attached to his person. The
grip which he had slowed into the seat
beside him was painted red, white and
blue, and half a yard of bunting was
wound around his sonIbrero. Three
Dewey buttons were in his coat, and a
small sOiled flag hung from a button
hole.
"Tieketsr' said the conductor.
Remember the Mainer' the passen-
ger promptly responded.
whats that ?'' the official inquired,
not exactly understanding.
"Cuby libber an prosperity" the
man in the seat returned.
"Give me your ticket, please" the
conductor said, ignoring the flOrid re-
marks of the other.
The passenger looked surprised.
"Tickets ?D he repeated after the con-
ductor. "What do / want Of a ticket?
1 expect this here old road to recognize
patriotism an love Of country. Pm
goln' in to Grand Island. Pass oD,
mister. Hurray for old Bill ShafterFi
you'll have to give me ticket or
pay your fare" the conductor eOldly
informed him.
"Pay fare? Thunder and hailstorms?
Amt you got no patriotism? In this
here hour of our great rejoiein' at the
triumph of the American flag amt you
got no idy beyond your blamed tickets
an fares? tell you l amt got no
ticket. don't need none. We had
twins at our house last week, an we
named one Cuby an the other Hobson.
Look at that there gripsack, an look at
these here decorations. Go on away.
1 want to go to Grand Island. These
is war times, an we. must all be pre-
pared to sacrifice little"
"You can prepare yourself to sacri-
fee Sl-S9, or you can prepare to get of
this train"
"what? Git oF2 In spite of Cuby
an Hobson ?'
Exactly"
"You don't ree'nize the flag of your
country-Dewey-the Maine-Saandy
aggO?"
"One thirty-nine, please"
The sonibrero passenger looked about
him. "An' do you men hear that %
he inquired wonderingIy. 'Do you
hear yolr country gittin' insulted ?
Hear the blood of heroes dyin' in
trenches gittin' stamped on an treated
with disgust? Who is fer declarin'
martial law an teachin' this old rail-
road thing or two about freedom an
liberty an humanity ?''
Nobody stirred to help him. The
conductor reached for the beil-rope.
At that the patriot weakened. He
pulled pocketbOOk into view and be-
gan counting: Fifty eents-a dollar
never heard of such slavery-dollar' n
quarter, 30-no regard fer loyalty an
patriotism at all-fve, six an three's
