This city awaits the coming of the nero
OF Santiago on Monday next. The joy over
his coming has become one deep feeling of
enthusiasm, and The distinguished visitor
will be warmly welcomed, and some OF
that welcome will take the form of whistles
and banners, and guns and trumpets.
Bright colors will be on the walls and over
the streets, and joy in the hearts OF the
people.
All feel that nothing is too good fer the
brave commander who rendered the eoun-
try an inestimabic service, and who did not
then, nor mas he since, made any claim on
account of it, The battle he led and won Is
historic. 1t ended the war.
Admiral Schley is one of the heroic fig
ures of the times, and the city should be
decorated as it never has been before. Let
the hero of Santiago know and see and
feel that he is among friends. Let him for
get for once the navy department clique

slider the iron town of the south his own in
heart and soul. Monday will be a general
holiday, and in the streets and at the sta
ton will be found everybody ready to
Shout when the great admiral appears.

SLAMS.
These claims were duly presented by the
United States to Russia, and the two gov
eenments have agreed to settle them by
arbitration. They have agreed upon a sim
gle arbitrator in the person of DR.. Assor. a
Dutch lawyer, who sat as a delegate in The
Hague conference. Each side is now pre-
pairing papers to be laid before the arbi-
TRAITOR and the methods of the Venezuelan
arbitration will be adhered to.
The Russian sealing policy may have been
disregarded by the three American vessels,
ana it is not at all certain that the decis-
ion will be in favor of the American claims.
The Russian law places zone thirty miles
wide around the Russian islands to which
the seals resort This has been done in
order to stop pelagic sealing, thus prevent
ing the killing of female seals and protect
ing young seals. The zone of protection Is
rigidly guarded, and violators of it some
times are sentenced TO six months impris-
onment.
Dr. Assor will have an abstruse subject
to consider when this country questions the
right of Russia to control beyond one ma
rine league Russia claims that marine
jurisdiction extends as far as a cannon can
shoot This was formerly three miles. The
range of cannon is now at least seven
miles. This is Russia's present claim, and
it seems that the three captured American
vessels were without the three-mlle ana
within the seven-mile line. The present ar
bitration may therefore serve to settle the
range of marine jurisdiction.

WHERE LADYsMIrH GOT IT'S NAME

From the Philadelphia Press.
There has been great deal of joking
about the odd name of the place where Sir
William Whites English troops have been
doing battle. AS a matter of fact, Lady,
smith did get its name from woman. This
was the wife of General Sir Harry Smith
whose marriage, by the way, was one of
the romances of the Peninsuar war. At
that time two young British officers in Il
Spanish town, which had just been occupied
by an English force, We're surprised by a
visit from, two very young and beautiful
Spanish girls of the better class. These far
callers begged protection in the alarming
umstances in which they had been
placed by the occupation of the rougher
soldierly. Their request was, of course,
gallantly granted, and in short time one
of the officers, Captain Smith, found hin self
desperately in love. In due time he married
the woman whom he had protected. TIE
marriage proved a happy one.
