THE SPANISH SITUATION
Congress for Intervention Spain Is
Very Angry

Washington, April Is. = The
foreign relations committees of
the two houses Of Congress have
agreed upon resolutions, the sub
stance of which was a recon-
mendation Of immediate interven-
ton. Members Of the committee
believe that the resolutions will
pass today, and probably by a
unanimous vote, although it has
been said that the democrats
would antagonize the passage of
the report on the ground that it
did not go far enough. The ac-
ton recommended is stronger
than that suggested by the presi-
dent, and the preamble to the
resolution deals with the Maine
question in unequivocal terms.
General Lee arrived IN Wash
lngton yesterday, and was given
splendid reception. He visited
the state department and the
White House, and later appeared
before the committee and said
that he had no doubt but that the
Maine was destroyed through
Spanish agencies.
Madrid receives the message in
angry mood, and the newspapers
there bitterly attack the United
States. some of them not forget
ting to criticise harshly the course
of the Sagasta Ministry.
Congress seems eager for the
issue, and the tone of the speeches
delivered yesterday was decidedly
bellicOSe.

THE RIFLES BALL
Ocala's Young Society People Enjoy
Themselves at the ArmOry.


The Ocala Rifles Fourteenth
Annual Ball took place at the
armory last night, and while the
attendance was not very large it
was all the more enjoyable TO
those present. There were six
teen dances on the program and
they were all finished by one
o'clock, at which temperate
hour the ball broke up and the
dancers sought their homes. The
soldier boys were IN their new and
handsome dress uniforms and
gave very stately and martial
air to the gathering. The ladies
were very handsomely gowned
In their new spring dresses and
among them there were none to
offend the eye OF the most ardent
advocate Of dress reform for the
ball room. There were a num-
Der Of visiting young ladies pres
ent, who are counted among the
most comely Of the land. They
We're, Misses Helen Denham,
Bessie and Eva Hale of Gaines
vile, Ellie Burnet Of Kentucky,
and the Misses Martin of Wash
ington, y. c., ana among the
gentlemen from out of town were,
Mr.. Richards of the Gate City
Guards. The music was of an
excellent quality, furnished by
Pike unequalled orchestra, COM
posed of August Bergman, vio-
llnlst; Albert Gerig, cornetist,
and Prof. Pike, pianist. The
committee on decorations had the
spacious drill hall handsomely
decorated in evergreens, which
blended nicely with the mellow
rays Of the incandeScent lights
and the sparkle from the Jewels of
the fair dancers. The members
Of the floor committee, Captain
Davidson and Sergeants Sparr
and Mcintosh, looked to the com
fort of every one and kept sharp
eye Of supervision over the dance
to see that everything was con-
Quoted in perfect order and in
harmony.
Every one present enjoyed the
ball heartily. The young society
people of Ocala look forward with
eager pleasure to the Rifles an
nual balls, which are among the
most stylish affairs of the season,
and as the Rifles bear the reputa-
ton of success in everything un-
dertaken, the lovers of the dance
are always glad to be present.
The thought Of war in the imme-
date future threw no shadow
over the spirits Of the gentlemen,
as the members of the Ocala
Rifles would go to battle just as
cheerfully as to the ball room,
and with a smile on theic faces
follow Captain Davidson to vic
tory.

atCd IN the minds OF many, most
~ pon-church members or luke
warm and indifferent church
members who show no consistency
for their church Obli|a tionS. The
other text was from the Bible.
In commenting on "our notes"
he complimented the Star as the
friend Of the church. that it was
a nice, clean paper that admitted
no saloon ads to its columns and
believed in morality and the good
work the church and the Sunday
school were doing for the world.
He thanked God for the -opposi-
tion his sermon on Dancing"
had created. That is what ke is
here for, to arouse and awaken
the conscience of the guilty, and
as the hit dog yelps, he felt
pleased to know that his shot had
taken effect. No results or re-
forms can be accomplished with
out creating opposition, but from
this same opposition accrue the
greatest gain. Glad he was that
the displeased, piqued and of
Tended took his remarks as per
sOnal: if the shoe fitted they
could wear 1t. The evangelist
insisted that the Rifles report Of
bribery was damaging to him
and he could not think of it in
any other light than a serious
one. that they were in earnest
aud therefore be had to combat it.
Parenthetically the Star here
insists and reiterateS that on the
face of it the CarneStncsS and Sc

bribery is absurd. The Star ad-
mits that certain members. nota-

ganiZation, originated the idea of
making up a purse as ''hush

was entertained as a serious bus

WHAT OF THE OUTCOME?

Hundreds OF thousands of American
citizens are. rushing toward Alaska in
q sort Of wild hope that fate has some-
thing there in store for them, but few
of them are preparing for the return
to civilization in case their hopes shall
be blighted. In short, most of them
who contemplate going north have
'burned the bridge" behind them,
and should rot their hopes be realized,
they will be cast upon the icicles of
Alaska as dependent upon charity as
they were the day they were born.
Ali will eypend their last resource in
the search of gold, and whom their
Hast dollar is gone, when their last
mouthful of food is consumed, they will
realize what predicament they are
in; that starvation stares them in the
face and that they have no means with
which to ward off the grim messenger.
When this time shall come, which is
as certain as time, what will they do?
Nothing, for they will be helpless.
Then the government will be called
upon to lend its aid, and the sensible
ones who staid at home will be pun
ished for the folly of their less provi-
dent brothers. The government will
be called upon to furnish return trans
portation from Alaska for those who
in the mad rush squandered their sub
stance in the frozen cline. OF course
congress will then act. and will sup
ply means for the disappointed arge-
nauts to get back. But would it not
be better for those who rush away to
seek for wealth if they would prepare
some means for getting home before
thew start
