this city, treated the boys to a very
pleasant surprise at their castle
hall last Monday evening. During
the regular order of business the
sentinel discovered an unwonted
gathering of strangers who seemed
determined to storm the outer
walls and an immediate alarm was
sounded. There was buckling on
of armor and lowering Of visors
as each rushed to his post at moat,
sally port, parapet, loopholes, bar
bacan, merlons, turrets and donion.
After parley with the invaders,
the portcullis was raised, the gates
thrown open and an unconditional
surrender was made by the Sir
Knights to their fair visitors. Ma
ny baskets of good things were fur
nished by the ladies and the hours
that passed quickly by were most
pleasantly spent by all.

sAxGU1LLY IS TOO FRESH.

Cuban General Is Looking for
Trouble, and He'll Find 1t.
Havana Jan. 11.-Maj. Gen. Ludlow,
military governor Of the department OF
Havana, recently requested Julio San
gully, the Cuban general, to stay out
side the city, or, in the event of his
entering it, not to wear his uniform in
public: Sanguilly was informed in
writing that he would be severely
dealt with in the event Of provoking
any more trouble such as occurred at
the Albisu theater a few nights ago,
when with a party Of friends, he al
most provoked a physical conflict with
two members Of the municipal police
who had not saluted him. Gen. Lud-
low sent copy of the letter to Gen.
Maya Rodriguez, Sanguilly's superior,
and it is understood that Gen. Rod
riguez also cautioned him. But yester-
day he was seen around the city con-
spicuous in white duck suit and
white brimmed panama hat, wearing
the three gold stars Of major general.
Attended by eight or ten friends, curl
ing his long gray mustache and twist
ing his imperial, he has been ostenta-
stiously posing in the cafes, utterly
without regard to Gen. Ludlow's direc-
TONS, Sanguilly seems to be looking
for trouble. Though unpopular with
the Cuban chiefs, he has q large fol-
lowing among the lower classes. The
attention Of Gen. Rodriguez will be
called to- this obstreperous behavior
and it is considered better to let his
own people handle him.

London, April 21.-1t has been learned
that serious split has occurred among
the members of the Filipino junta, a
majority of whom are in favor of direct
conferences with the secretary of state
at Washington, Colonel John Hay, with
the view Of bringing about peaceful
solution of the Philippine question.
Four delegates, Lasala, Marti, Lopez
and Rivera, finding that Agoncillo,
Aguinaldo's representative, disagrees
with this view, have started for Manila,
leaving Agoncillo, Rioga and Lunar,
who insist upon absolute and uncondi-
tional independence, in Europe.
Senior Lopez, the Filipino envoy, de-
clares that the Filipinos are tired Of
fighting and must now throw them
selves on the mercy of the Americans.
Senior Lopez's important declaration
was made sorrowfully but empha tically
He said:
1--WE are now in the hands of the
Americans and must throw ourselves on
their mercy. Our troops are tired of
fighting. They are fighting men that
they consider are really their good
friends. Aguinaldo is probably now ar
ranging a truce preparatory to peace,

naldo to go to Washington and conduct

TERMS:

Taxpayers Of Barre, put your ears
close to the ground and what do you
hear? Any agreement between any per-
sons concerning the price Of the Barre
water? Why these secret meetings.
What did the far famed Mr.. Blake re-
port2 Were the figures placed by him
so high that our City Fathers do not de-
sire to 90 before the commissioners for
hearing? If not, can they tell us why
the new efforts were made to buy the
plant at private sale? Who first gave
the council the name of Mr.. Blake as an
expert on the price of water plants? Be-
ing present at that time it is our recol-
lection that it was certain so called
'supernumerary alderman" formerly Of
the same place as MIR. Blake. We do
not for one moment doubt the ability of
Mr.. Blake, but from present indications
and actions it would appear that he did
not place the value of the plant as low
as the taxpayers of Barre were told dur
ing the recent political contest that they
might reasonably expect. Why was it
necessary to 60 to Hyde Park, Mass,
for water expert when MIR Foster had
already given the council fair estimate?
Cannot the citizens read between the
lines why Mr.. Blake of Hyde Park,
Mass, was suggested and secured to fix
the value of the plant, and then why
this is followed by series of consulta-
tons between the City Fathers and Mr..
Goodhuep The Power Behind the
Throne" came from Hyde Park, Mass.
The taxpayers of Barre have been led
into a trance too many times to be fooled
now, and some excellent reading is in
store for the people Of Barre it is said,
if certain parties can be made to give
affadavits. Keep your eyes open for
the last act of the water drama. When
the curtain finally drops the audience
will stand amazed while the doorkeep"
ers take care OF the proceeds.

Washington, April 2l.--It is stated at
the war department that there is not
much probability of an attempt to or
ganiZe a battalion of native Cuban
troops until the Cuban army is paid off
and disarmed. 1t is then possible that
some of the best of these soldiers will
be selected and enlisted in the United
States service. 1t is realized at the de-
partment that the disarmament of the
Cuban army presents a grave problem,
as it is not yet known whether these
men will return to work or whether
their life has been such as to encourage
them to a nomadic existence
