Meanwhile Crete is in a very unhappy

A Twenty-one Hundred Dollar Cat.


In London and Paris cats are more
highly priced than in the United States,
and there are frequent sales there OF
tabbles at two hundred and fifty dollars
each. Some choice cats. with rare
markings and points, are disposed
of at five hundred dollars each.
One of the most famous cats In Amer
lea is Ajax. owned by d. w. Stevens. of
Westtield, Mass. His actual value has
been estimated, says the Philadelphia
press. at from one hundred to three
hundred dollars yet it is doubtful il
the owner would take several times the
larger sum for him.
The famous cat Nicodemus, which
won the first prize for beauty at a New
York cat show, cost It's owner. who
purchased 1t of a street urchin in Hes
ter street, New York, the sum of ten
cents. After the close of the exhibition
the gentleman received dozen offers
of fifteen hundred dollars for It. and
one woman bid twenty-one hundred
dollars. A lady who controls eat
farm in California paid 81 900 for cat
in Paris and considered it bargain.

OUR OFFER TO SPAIN.
Terms Upon Which the War
May Be Terminated.

First-The government of Spain
must relinquish Its authority and
government in the Island of Cuba
and withdraw its land and naval
forces from Cuba and Cuban waters.
Second-The island Of Porto Rico
and all other islands III the West In
dies over which the Spanish flag now
floats must be ceded to the United
States as permanent possessions.
When the Spanish troops have been
withdrawn from the West Indies
hostilities will cease.
Third-Guam Island, in the La
drone group; Wake Island, also in
the Pacific, and probably one of the
Caroline Islands, must also be ceded
to the United States as coaling sta
tions.
Fourth-The American flag will
not be hauled down from the Philip
pine Islands, but whether if will Ay
over a coaling station, or whether il
will cover larger territory to be
known as a commercial base-which
would mean the occupancy of Manila
is question not to be decided at
this time. A coaling station will be
the least that will be demanded
The future disposition and govern
ment of the islands is not TO be def
ntely determined at present, but
will be left to the consideration O,
the peace commissioners when they
shall have been appointed. The re-
p y may not mention the Philippine
' q ,estion.

Subject of Conference
Keptq Secret.
WAS NOT CONCLUSIVE
Officials Say the Only Formal
Note From Spain Was Re-
quest for Information on
Points Not Clear to the
Spanish Government.

Washington, August 3.-After u con-
ference on the peace question, lasting
for just nm hour this afternoon between
the President and NJ Cambon. the
! French ambassador, the latter acting
as the representative of Spain, Secretary
Day emerged from the White House and
announced that today's conference was
inconclusive, wherefore the parties to it
had agread TO say nothing publicly as
to what occurred. The Secretary d,d
not appear TO he discouraged as he
made THIS statement, though he admit
ted that no time had been set for anoth-
er conference. From this it is gathered
? that the long expected answer of the
Spanish government to the Presidents
note, upon being received here, turned
out 10 be just as it was xpected--either
counter proposition, or request for q
uller statement in detail upon some of
the heads of the Presidents note.
Up to the middle of the afternoon il
was stated by all parties concerned that
heSpanish answer had not been received:
that the only formal note that had come
tO hand was one from the Mndri,lcnbinet
to NJ. Cnmbon asking for information
upon some points that were not clear to
Dire Spanish mind.
