FOUGHT IN THE STREETS.
Insurgents Get Backset in the San
Domingo Revolution.

Copyright 1898 by Associated Press)
Cape Hayden, June 6.-According to
the latest advices from Monte Christi,
General Jiminez, the leading spirit in
the revolution, divided his men on land
ing, into two columns, one of which at
tackled and took the fort, the other, led
by JimineZ, marching to the governor
house. Governor Galito was seized
and the demand was made upon him by
Jiminez that he sign a paper accepting
the leadership of the revolutionists for
the northern district. Governor GalitO
refused, saying that he was too old to
take part in a revolution.
GaIito was then made a prisoner and
marched out between files of insurg-
ents. In the street, however, a col
umn of government troops met the il
minez column and in the combat which
ensued =, Galito escaped. The govern
ment force being stronger, pressed back
the insurgents. In a final desperate
fight Morales and Boaz were killed. A
party of insurgents of General Merce-
des, seeing that defeat was inevitable,
took refuge in the mountains. 1t is
reported that they were surrounded Ia
ter and that Mercedes was shot.
Governor Galito Immediately began
bloodthirsty measures upon all the en-
plOyes of the mercantile house of which
Jiminez was the head. To the number
of sixteen they were adjudged guilty of
conspiracy and taken out and shot.
In the fight six insurgents were killed
and about twenty-fOur have been exc
cuted since. 1t is supposed that Cen
eral Torevio Garcia escaped with Ji-
rninez, but this is uncertain.

CALL TAKES 1T BACK.
Explains That the Kansas Volunteers
are Not Mendicants.

The San Francisco Call said I'm
Thursdays issue:
The Twentieth Kansas volunteers OBJ
ject to being placed in the light of men
dicants. They admit that with less
than half their number in uniform they
do not look so sOldierly as some of the
others, but they assert, and their
sertion is backed up by the chief quar-
termaSter of the army here, that not a
single volunteer command has marched
into Camp Merritt whose men were
provided with the comforts the Kan
sans had. Their tents, with the eXcep-
ton of the Coloradoans, are the best
and are the same as those used by the
regulars; every man was provided with
better blankets than the army issues,
many of them having been purchased
by Governor Leedy out of his private
purse while the regiment was in camp
at Topeka. Their mesSrOom was am
pie and the regiment was well supplied
with regulation field stoves, which no
other command but that from Colorado
brought.
Before starting for California the
Twentieth Kansas was encamped for
three weeks at Topeka, during which
time it rained almost necessarily, but
every possible effort was made to pro-
vide for their comfort. The quarter
masters stores at Fort LeavenW Orth,
the only military supply depot in the
state were depleted by the regulars in
preparing for their journey to Chicl1a-
manga, and the volunteers were started
west before the citizens could do for
them all they wanted to. However, the
men were all we'll protected from the
cold and the number of ponchos and
rubber blankets they brought with
them surprised the army inspector.
Since they have been here they have
been issued fresh beef every day, and
find the other rations more than suffi-
cient for their needs. Altogether the
Kansans appear to be as jolly and con-
tented a lot of young patriots as can be
found in the service.

of their experience and observation on
the following topics:
How have you been affected by Cot

less at the first trial?
Did you set such a person right re-
garding the easy way to make Postum

way to make it than to note the clock

keep it boiling moderately for full Is
minutes using heaping teaspoons
full for each cup of beverage?
Give names and account of those

1yomen Investors Sought.

AS investors women nre usually
characterized either by extreme cau-
ton OF certain seeming recklessness
often most profitable in final results.
It is this latter characteristic which is
frequently appealed to by the organ
izers of business enterprises in Chi
cago and elsewhere promising excep-
tionally large returns-with the &C.
companying risk of no returns at all.
There is man in Philadelphia, a
promoter, who makes it his business
to deal with women investors only.
All his schemes are presented to them,
and he has had considerable success
in floating stocks and bonds which a
capitalist of the male persuasion could
not be induced to notice. Numerous
undertakings of Importance have been
started by women, to be afterward
taken up and carried to q safe and
profitable completion by men who
hesitated to assume the initiative.
Among the subscribers to Klondike
schemes are widows by the score.
Their Judgment of an enterprise is in
stinotive and intuitive. They have
faitI, and, once believers, their cour-
age sticks to the last. New York has
a hundred rich widows who are as in
dependent as Semiramis, the beaute-
Gus and wise queen of Assyria. The
number of this class of investors here
is also much more numerous than is
generally supposed.

Hoods pills cure all liver ills. Is ce
The oldest Hobby in the World.

Probably the strangest hobby in the
world is that Of Henry Woolridse, of
Mayfeld. KY, who devotes all his mon
ey and time to developing his plot in
the local cemetery in way which is
as grotesque as it is, happily, original.
His first modest and laudable effort
was to erect plain monument to mark
the family resting place. Not satisfied
with this, however, he added to 1t a
white marble shaft, bearing on its face
a relief presentment Of himself on
horseback.
Having thus struck the personal
note, "Uncle Henry" as he is familiar
ly called, had life-sized statue of him
self erected at cost Of 5000. He then
introduced statues of his mother and
eldest brother, to be followed shortly
by similar statues in Indiana limestone
of a fayorite niece and Of a young girl
VINO had Drougnr him flowers during
an illness.
His next ambition was to see himself
on horseback, and the family gathering
was augmented by life-size statue
OF .'Uncle Henry" on his favorite horse.
Then followed presentments in stone
of his favorite desrhound, "Tow Head"
cha sing deer; another Of a fox pur-
sued by his foxhound. Bob" and a
marble sarcophagus with a carved rep
resentation of his favorite gun.
,%o&
ues of three of his brothers in the stiff
est of poses and the most prosaic OF
dress. AS Uncle Henry" although IS
years old, is still hale and more en-
thusiastic than ever, it is certain that
this strange menagerie will receive
many more additions before he sleeps
in the oldest environment with which
eccentricity ever surrounded dead

Fashion Notes.

The fashionable garter harmonizes
with other lingerie.
Purple is one of the colors most fire.
quently seen in the new gowns.
Artificial flowers sewed on narrow
ribbons made an effective trimming
for evening gowns.
Chatelaines continue to grow in
popularity, and they ere to be de
rigeur before long.
Gauze haircloth is now being used
to give the stability necessary in
fashionable garment.
One of the new dress fabrics has
poplin ground with jacquard figure.
1t closely resembles crepon but is less
expensive.
Costumes with jacket bodices will
be more in favor than ever this sea-
son. The blouse will still be worn
and the bolero will probably be popu-
lar.
Ribbons are in chapgeable colors,
gray shot with red, ETC, stripes and
plaids, some of them entirely OF gauze
and others combined with silk and
satin. Velvet ribbons are also in
use.
Striped velvets are coming in, the
stripes being small, dark co!ored eel
vet, alternating with light colored
silk. Printed velvet is also seen, :nd
is employed in trimming woolen gowns
and in making entire waists.
Lace gowns will be much worn this
season, and lace will be in great de-
mand in all departments of dress.
Lace accessories will be much used.
In lace and net dresses an interlinine
of silk will be introduced 'etween the
principal material and the silk foun-
dation.
The rufled skirts which Paris
adopted to limited extent last year
will be boon when one has an old or
rather shabby skirt. Be its color what
it may, it need only be rufied from
hem to waistline with ruf1es of black
net, edged with narrow satin or vel
vet ribbon.
Violets, velvet and Venetian face
trimmings are SO fashionable on bon
nets and toques worn in Paris, and
sent to this country, that notwith-
standing that these flowers decorate
seven-tenths of the headgear worn
here, they are likely to be elected by
q large portion of our best dressed
women as garnitures for their spring
hats and bonnets.
Braiding in vermicelli, French
arabesque, Greek key, trefoil, clover,
floral and purely conventional devices,
appears on many of the very stylish
imported garments, redingotes, jack
cts and small pelerines just brought
to view; and the new effects produced
by this graceful form of decoration
arouse quite as great degree of ad-
miration as if this were the initial
season of its vogue.
