ONE c1E4B-EYED spAyrARD.

There has been, it appears. at least one intelligent and far seeing Spaniard. Thirty-six years ago General Prim, in a speech delivered in the Spanish sen- States alone. General Prim had just returned from a visit to this country, where he had been closely observing the northern army, and he had found out number of things that he thought his colleagues ought to know. Said General Prim: For long time it has been believed in Spain, and in fact in all of Europe, that the United States has been nation of business men,
 without either military spirit or mili- tary clements, and for that reason un- able to make war, even within its own ed, however, that such is not the case. The people of the United States are aware that the most powerful nation of Europe Is unable to successfully cope with it in the western hemisphere. It would be matter of greatest ease for the United States to transport an ar
 my of 100000 men, with immense ma- terial of war, to any part of the conti- nent, but 1t would be difficult and al- most impossible thing for any nation in Europe to transport even 50,000 men to the United States without exposing it. self to defeat and everlasting discredit. I had the pleasure and honor while in the United States to visi. one of the of the Potomac, commanded by the il- lustrious General Mcclellan, and was composed of over 100000 men. I can assure the senators that this army, be- cause of the people who composed it, their military spirit, their superb disci- pline, their voluntary sacrifice and their immense material, could be put before any army in the world 1 ask and counsel the statesmen of my country
 to be watchful of the United States.
 General Prim saw that the people of this country were not too busy or too sordid to fight when fighting was need
 ed. The latter day Spaniards now see
 the same thing, and it has cost them
 much to get their eyes open. They
 would have done well to keep General
 Prim's speech in mind.

cRIsToBA1 ooLoN,s MISTAKE.


 Poor old Christopher Columbus or Cristobal Colon, as the spaniards say him. He discovered this part of the world by mistake, The Indians who know about him blame him for making that mistake and setting things in mo- ton that have finally driven them from their happy hunting grounds and made them the wards" of the pale face. The pale-face himself is sometimes uncer- tain whether Christopher did him a good turn in discovering a country which has become the home of the trust and the fertile field of the willy politician. And now come the Span iards and blame the unfortunate Ital- ian for fixing things so that they had colonies here to lose, after having been impoverished in trying not to lose them.
 Cristobal Colon is dead and the Span ish ship named after him lies wreck on the Cuban coast. He cant answer back, and though it may not be entire ly fair to blame him for all that has happened since he made his great mis- take it is entirely safe. Go down to Wooster square, contemplate the statue of the bold but blundering navigator and call him lucky that he Is dead.

tucked into the buttonhole in front of the gown or at the belt they are al- most as pretty a bit of color as a flow CT so worn would be. You must carry another handkerchief for use, and you must make up your mind to wash your dainty tinted squares yourself unless your maid-if you have one, and you ought to if you have "squares"-can be trusted.
 Draped overskirts are to hold in evening gowns, despite the fact that the incoming clinging skirt will, if gen.
 orally accepted, replace such drapery. An oddly arranged overskirt, for a high-necked white taffeta gown,is pre- sented in this picture. The overskirt was white lace, edged with a ruff1e of while taffeta and trimmed with two bands of white taffeta ribbon. Bands of ribbon also trimmed the sleeves, which, with the bodice were covered with lace, and violet velvet gave belt, collar and their odd bows.
 Stockings grow prettier and gayer. What women are going to wear this winter with low shoes and slippers would simply have caused fits to even think of a year ago. Open work, silk and ribbon lines lace insertions, let-in figures and spangles are accepted de- vices of ornamentation. Think of stock ings with butterflies of lace in it, tiny one at the toe to just show above the low edge of the slipper; another spread over the instep, which means not only high instep but one prettily modelled, smooth skinned and white; g, third with wings just carved at the tips about the ankles, and others extending ever high CT? What would the extravagant dam- sel who wears such hosiery think and do If a real live butterfly got under her skirts and mounted toward her knees But that's another matter.

large doses Of Warberg'S s tlncture pei lets together with a vile solution of sweetened carbolic Water-the latter to destroy fever germs-then quantities Of quinine were administered. AS for nourlshment (accent on the last sylla- ble), scalded "cow's milk" mixed with equal parts of soda Water-a most nau- seous dose-was given. Anyone famil- jar with cows milk in Jamaica, unless one saw it actually drawn from the COW itself, would never dream of it's being genuine lacteal fluid. As a rule, cows do not flourish on the island, on account of the omnipresent tick, and therefore good milk is exceedingly rare.
 After the fever has been allayed, the patient arrives by slow degrees to the pigeon stage" when if he is successful enough to dine on a birds leg he is pronounced convalescent, and order ed to the mountains to recuperate, No matter if your unpacked trunk stare you in the face, and you can scarcely bear your weight, the doctors man. dates are as unalterable as the laws of the Medes and Persians, and to the mountains you must go.
 By the way, Kingstonians are exceed ingly sensitive about the fever. If one is very i'll, they treat it lightly and quite as a matter of course. 'Oh, it's only a little fever. He will soon be well" they say, or he is too sick,'' or ''too well,' as the case may be- But they are ex- tremely careful about exposing them- selves to the night air, and attribute the prevalence of fever to the cold breezes that sweep down from the United States.
 Vaudeville is the famed health resort of Jamaica, and thither we went. Af- ter a ride of three hours by rail we reached our destination, surprised that we were ready for the refreshments of fered us, hospitable Jamaican cus- tom, immediately on our arrival. Would that all of our poor fever stricken sol- diers had a Vaudeville in which to re- cuperate, but it was January when we were there.
 Dear, delightful Vaudeville, with it's blossoming trees in which happy birds sang all day long; with it's cool, invigo- rating atmosphere, it's clear, crisp mornings and glorious days that were all too short for enjoyment: it's dewy, peaceful nights, which were too brief for sleep; it's graceful, picturesque wo- men, gayly turbaned and short skirt ed; it's fragrant air, filled with the breath of blossoming coffee and orange trees; it's superabundance of golden fruit, and it's glorious, mountain scen- cry basking beneath the bluest of sum- mer skies. It was altogether delight- full. altogether beautiful

SPANISH VAR PENSIONERS.

Before war with Spain was decided on by the United States one of the ob- jections urged against it was the in crease in the pension list which the war would make. The war is over and 1t will not add as much to the pension list as some were afraid 1t would. There has been only one land battle of im- portance, and a. very large part of the army has not even left the camps of instruction. The entrance examination was very severe and the government proposes to supplement this entrance examination with final one, and to keep an official record of the physical condition of every soldier at the time of his discharge from the service. Ac- cording to a statement made by Gen eral Corbin, this examination twill re- veal whether they were wounded, sprained hearing impaired, or sight in- jured, and if they have suffered any disability that they know of or the phy- sicians can find. This is to be put down in black and white, and the soldier is to sign it if he knows of no objection to it." The records will be so complete that there will not be much chance for pension frauds, and unless congress by and by votes pension to everybody who enlisted there will be no great number of Spanish war pensioners.

The Dengue Fever.

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 The dengue or tropical fever, is De- cutiar to the equatorial regions. Un- like most other febrile diseases, it is not preceded by lassitude, or premonitory chills, but 1t attacks one unawares, as thief in the night. Indeed, one may go to bed apparently in the best of health and be awakened in the small hours in all the throes of fever. You know intuitively, although this is your f1rst experience, that the dread disease has taken possession of you. There are hundreds of little imps that are pound ing away at the base of your brain, and hammering up and down your spinal column. You attempt to lift your head. It is useless; it is leaden. Or, you may drop suddenly in a faint, or be taken when chatting with friends.
 We made our acquaintance with the fever at Kingston, Jamaica, where all the newly arrived guests at the hotel succumbed to it, one by one, and we became quite expert in detecting it's advance symptoms. It was not in the face, which was flushed to a dark, dull red, or was ghastly white that the peculiarity lay, but the eyes give un- mistakable evidence of it's approach.
 They were bloodshot and had a strained, elongated and decidedly celes- tial appearance. If a physician is call ed in the first stages of the fever, it usually yields to treatment in a few days, but often complications arise, or dysentery sets in with fatal results. No matter what the age might be, or previ- ous health conditions, the patients were all served alike. First, they were given

 This will be quite appropriate. The change from suckers to sardines is not very violent one, and if it is found that as much money can be extracted from the latter as there was from the former the new fish business will pay well.

GREAT LADIES WHO SMOKE.

The Cigarette and Even the Cigar, and
 the Czarinas Prohibition-Introdu
 tion of the Cigarette Into England
 After the Crimean War.
 As unexpectedly as 'bolt from the blue" came the sad tidings, promulga- ted a few days ago in court circles at St. Petersburg, that the gentle and gra- cious Czarina would be greatly obliged to the ladies of her household if, for the future, they would forbear from smok- ing cigarettes in her presence. This unlocked for intimation, reaching the Russian "dames ct demoiselles dhon- neur'' from so exhalted a quarter, was unavoidably accepted by them as a command, and they have summoned up courage to address humble petition to Her Majesty, entreating her to revoke request that is practically a decree. In this prayerful document they have ventured to remind AleAandra Feodo- rovna that ladies are permitted to smoke cigarettes at all the Continental courts that among the august female votaries of the narcotic herb born in the purple are the Dowager Czarina and her sister, the Princess Thyra, Duchess of Cumberland, as well as the Princess Henry of Prussia, born Princess Irene of Hesse and the Rhine, own sister to the reigning Empress of all the Russias The petition also deferentially points out that the Austrian Kaiserin and Queen of Hungary; Maria Christina, Queen Regent of Spain; Carmen Syl- va," Queen of Rumania and the Queen of Portugal, as well as many grand duchesses, archduchesses and princes of the blood, are inveterate smokers.
 To this category, moreover, belonged though the Russian court ladies may not be aware of the fact-the lovely and intrepid ex-Queen of Naples, Marie

The Russian Geographical society has undertaken to make every year a series of accurate measurements of certain glaciers, located for the most part in the Caucasus, withS a view of determin- ing any change in their bulk In the case of eight glaciers upon which meas urements have been made during the last eight or ten years it was found that they have been steadily decreas- ing, the lower ends having retreated at an average speed of from nine to thir- ty-eigIt metres every year. Consider ing separately the northern and south ern slopes of the Caucases, the average speed of retreat of the former was found to be twenty-two metres per year, while the latter was twenty-five metres. In 1896 8 number of new gla- ciers were discovered, while in Turk estan an exploring expedition in the Hissar range encountered large num- Der, several of which had as high an altitude as 13OOO feet at their highest point and sloped down to 10000 or 11,0OO feet at the lower end. Expeditions to Siberia have also secured considerable information of the glaciers of that re- zion about which previously little was known. In all cases careful investiga- ton of their condition revealed the fact that they are constantly growing small- ar

Bishop Alfred Willis, of Honolulu, recently disapproved of women wearing the cossack and cotta in vested choirs, because, according to the Book of Deuteronomy, God declares that "the women shall not wear that which per- taineth unto a man." whereupon Ha- waiian paper reminded him that in the same book it is commanded that thou shalt not wear a mingled stuff, wool and linen, together. Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four borders of thy vesture." If the Mosaic law is to regulate the dress of choir girls 1t wants to know why it shall not be held to reg ulate the dress of everybody in general, in which case the good Bishop would have to make himself conspicuous by wearing fringe n.fis coat, waistcoat and trousers.

Those who have had the good Georgia peaches this year will want more next year if they are alive and well. The shipments for this season are now about over and they include about two thou- sand carloads. Notwithstanding the great loss of fruit on account of the failure to get crates in many instances, and the natural waste, it is estimated that the crop of this season will bring into half dozen counties at least $1,- 100000. The Macon Telegraph says that next year, should the conditions be as favorable as this year, the crop will be great deal larger, as there are hun dreds of thousands of young trees that will be in bearing for the first time. The growers will also be better prepar- ed for shipping and not near so much of the crop will be wasted.

That hard-working class of women known as purchasing agents, or com missioners, who gain a livelihood from the big stores through the orders they place with their customers, have been classed as commercial brokers by the internal-revenue authorities at Wash ington. They have also been assessed $20 each as such, and have decided to form an organization to protect them selves. Their first action after organi- zation will be an effort to have tbe rul- ing revoked which causes them so much hardship. It is known that quite a number of them have been forced to give up their calling simply for the reason that they could not afford to pay the war tax.
