DISCHARGE Baker on those grounds, and
an appeal to the supreme court result
ed in the sustaining of his decision.
Another interesting and we'll remem-
bereQ case was that of John Jacob
Hoffman,, pastor of ST. Peters Luth-
eran Unity church of Sheboygan, who,
with his wife and children, was fore
IDLY elected from the parsonage by
members of the congregation. Hoff-
man was a very eccentric character,
and created no end of trouble for the
court. Finally having exhausted the
supply of lawyers at his command, he
took charge of the case himself, and
at last after many sensational cpl
sodes, brought matters to final eli
max by suing Judge ellison for dam
ages.
Judge ellison also has d long and en-
viable war record On the breaking
out of the trouble in September, 1861,
he left his studies to enlist as a private
in Co. D, 18th Wisconsin infantry
but was soon promoted to sergeant
major of the regiment. The 18th,
which was at that time doing service
in Missouri and Kansas, was soon
transferred to the army of the Tennes-
see and for time Judge ellison was
on detached duty with the staff Of
General Robert B. Mitchell, remaining
with him until the battle of Perryyille
in 1862. August, 1864, he was COM
missioned as lieutenant in the
5Sth regiment United States colored
infantry, and was rapidly promoted,
finally becoming Northumberland.
w nile in the service he took part in
the siege of Vicksburg, and battles at
Jackson and Perryville, besides many
other engagements. Later he served
on the staff of Major-General David
son, was assigned to duty as judge-ad-
vocate of the Natchez district, and in
1865 and 1866 held the same position
in the department of the Mississippi,
serving at the time on the staff of Ma
General Osterhaus. After his reg
iment was mustered out in 1865, Col
onel ellison remained on duty for more
than a year, on account Of being judge
advocate of the court martial, con-
vened for the trial of Captain Speed,
charged with criminal carelessness in
overlooking the steamer Sultana, and
causing the death of ], 100 parole pris-
oners. He was finally mustered out
June II, 1866, at Vicksburg, and was
bFeveted colonel of the United States
volunteers by President Johnson.

General Lees Conduct in Cuba Has Been
Perfectly Satisfactory.
MADRID, March "a semi. official
note just issued declares that the Span.
ish government has not received any
complaint regarding the attitude of
General Fitzhugh Lee, the United
States consul general at Havana, add.
ing:
"On the contrary, Captain General
Blanco atfirms that General Lees be.
havior has always been correct. Never.
theless. the incident serves to explain
the origin of the i'll wind between the
two countries. This is proved by
statements attributed to Secretsry Sher'
man, by which the jingoes have
created the belief in the United States
that Spain is trying to provoke war,
while at the same time engendering the
feeling in Spain that it is the United
States which demands the opening OF
hostilities. 1t is essential that this
double game should be ended in order
to prevent the two countries from go
ing to war without motives, and with
out either of them desiring it.

BUYING OF WARSHIPS.

London Newspapers Confirm Sp.in's Pur-
chase--A pathy of Uncle sam Explained.
LONDON, March 9.-The English
newspapers confirm the news of Spain
purchase of warships. The st. James
Gazette, which Monday published the
deuials of the Spanish embassy and
Spanish naval commission, which has
an office in London, says:
1T is ascertained on very high au-
thority, in spite Of denials, that the
Spanish government has almost GER
tainly succeeded in buying three nearly
completed cruisers here, and two coast
defense vessels which are about to be
launched in France. Experts are almost
as much surprised at the success Of
Madrid in raising money rs by the
clever diplomacy which secured the
Chiliau aud Brazilian cruisers of the
ArmstrOngs, at q cost believed to be
81 ,OOO, 900, almost before the move was
suspected"
Takes . Cynical View.
The article goes on to say that much
competition between Spain and the
United States for these various ships
| constructing was expected, but Amer.
| ica has come to the conclusion that its
naval forces are strong enough to con-
front Spain, and is playing waiting
game.
Continuing. the St. James Gazette
SAWS: An American naval authority
| now in this country. takes a cynical
view of the six torpedo boats building
for Spain here. and Of the three al
ready delivered (which might just as
we'll be paid for by Spain in the frs
instance, and make valuable additions
to the United States navy later on"
The article quoted also points ou
that the earliest time in which thu
Chilian cruisers. which cost $4,000, ,OO'
can be finished is three months, ant
adding that the other vessels purchased
will take longer to finish. SO that in tn
event Of war (which will come soon
if at all, the ships will be useless, a
international law will prevent their de
livery"
