DEATH OF GYPSY KING.
His Costly Wagons Burned and the
Horses Killed.
From the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record.
The King of the Gypsies passed away
with the death of old Seth Lowell, at
Sharp's Hotel, Forty-eighth and Market
streets, on Monday night All of his be-
longings-wagons, harness, clothes, linen
and ornaments, some rare, some beaut-
ful-all valuable, were heaped together in
a huge pile on the lot back of the hotel,
we'll saturated with oil and set on fire.
The seven wagons thus destroyed were
worth over $500 each. They were minia-
ture dwellings, and were fitted up inside
with the most exquisite furnishings mag
Unable. Forty sets of gaudy harness
were burned, along with innumerable ar
Tides designed for domestic use.
Lowell and his tribe had made no less
than four trips around the world. The
old man, who claimed to be nearly 100
years of age although he scarcely looked
over 65 or TO- always carried large sums
of money with him, and the jewelry worn
by Queen Lowell a woman of some 70
years, is not only very valuable, but re-
markably beautiful.
The Arabian horses which drew the
regal van of the Lovels We're led to the
side of the burning pile and deliberately
killed by Ronald Raey, who seemed to be
conducting the weird ceremonies under
the personal direction of Queen Lowell,
last thing owned or used by her departed
lord had been given TO the flames.
AS the fire died down and the great
crowd passed from the scene, the old wo-
man and the members of her tribe wrap
| ped themselves in their blankets and,
| stretching out on the ground, went peace
fully to sleep with their feet close 10 the
| charred remains of all that belonged to
! their dead King.
| Queen Lowell refused to say anything
concerning the singular performance be-
| yond the single expression d" IT'S our way .
| She has ordered a new outfit of wagons,
| and four new horses will be secured for
| her van, and as soon as lhey are ready
| the tribe will leave Philadelphia and never
| appear here again under any circum-
| stances.
! The burial of King Lowell was a very
| simple affair. The tribe assembled about
| the grave and chanted several unintelligi-
| BILE odes and left the place before even the
| first spadeful of earth had been thrown
| into the grave. The period of mourning
for the King will cover one year.

Would Have Made Dash at Key
West, Then Into Havana.

From the New York Press.
Washington. Nov San interesting
volume on the lessons Of the war from the
Spanish point of view has been translated
by the bureau Of naval intelligence. 1t is
entitled "Blockades and Coast Defenses."
by Severe Gomez Nunez, captain OF artil-
lery. He bases nearly ali his conclusions
as to coast defenses on long extracts from
several articles written since the war by
Capt Mahan of our navy.
Capt. Nunez blames Spain, first of all,
for having neglected 10 make use of priv
ateeTs He says that this was the more
reprehensible since The United States COW
ertly made use of this form OF warfare,
'arming over 128 merchant vessels under
the name of auxiliary cruisers 10 prey
upon the commerce of Spain"
Spain, he says, easily could have done
the same and the presence of fleet OF
such auxiliary vessels over the track OF
American commerce would have forced the
American naval commander to have divld-
ed his forces and prevented him concen-
trating them for the final cruising blow
against Cervera at Santiago. OF the block
ade system employed by the United States
the writer makes even more bitter com
plant. He says:
THE blockade as practced in Cuba
caused thousand times more victims and
more horrors than bursting shells, the
burning of cities, the massacres of battles
and all the cruelties Of weapons. The
blockade makes living expensive, eXtin-
cuisines the means of livelihood, gradually
decimates the population, destroys family
life annihilates human beings without dis
tinction-or rather with one distinction, for
it strikes particularly the feeble, the emil
dren. the women and the sick.
"Tha blockade of Havana must nave
several times ceased by law had the facts
been properly laid before the nations of
the civilized world
Regarding cable cutting Nunezs com
plants are equally pathetic. He says that
the United States failed utterly to respect
this sacred property" both in Cuban
and Philippine waters. and he expresses
establishment that this violation of law
should have been allowed by other ma
tons
1t is interesting 10 note that the real OBJ
iect of sending CerVeTa TO Cuba was a
strategic move. and failed of effect only
because of the lamentable condition of the
vessels composing the feet. Had their real
efficiency been what It was represented
on paper, Cervera was to have passed into
the Caribbean at night without stopping
at Curacao, sailed round the west end OF
Cuba and made a dash at the American
shipping a Key West and then have fled
for refuge to Havana. Had this plan not
miscarried for lack of coal and the foul
bottoms of the fleet, Cervera probably
would have encountered Schley when the
Admiral sailed from Key West round the
west end of Cuba to checkmate just such
a Spanish move.

Rosehbach (Berliner klinische Wochen-
schrlft, Oct 9, 1899, calls attention to the
nose in consequence of the wearing OF
veil in winter The discoloration is most
pronounced at those points where the Veil
is most intimately applied to the face:
The effect is due partly to the mechanical
action of the sharp and rough .texture
upon a sensitive skin, and TO the influ-
ence Of the waJery vapor That collects
within its meshes and prevents evapora-
ton. Blood is thus driven from the tip
of the nose TO adjacent parts, whose blood
vessels in consequence become enlarged
and conspicuous
The condition is aggravated if the use
of the veil is persisted in on passing from
a cold to a warm atmosphere. The altera-
lions tend to become permanent uhe longer
the veil is worn without airing, the long
er its injurious action is maintained by
compression the colder the season, and
the greater the exposure. Sometimes the
checks are also affected similarly.
The treatment of the condition consists
in discarding the veil, avoiding for time
sharp winds and great cold and when ex-
posure TO cold air is unavoidable sudden
changes from cold to a warmer tempera-
ture Gentle massage should be practiced,
and applications of thin layer of lano-
lin, vaselin or cold cream may be made

Arose a single star,
Bright. calm, yet boldly free
The harbinger of war;
War for peoples name,
War for nations life,
War to preserve fame
Meier sullied in the strife.
Defianly she rose
out of the angry wave,
Fearless of all the woes
She should be called to brave.
Defiantly she shone
Upon the raging storm,
Walking the sky alone
An ever Frightening form.
Alone in that dark hour
OF peril and of woe,
She dared the tyrant power
Which fiercely surged below
In vain the pillows ragged.
In vain the wild winds blew,
The war she firmly waged
Was for the good and true.
Glory to that lone star,
And honor to the brave,
For as she waged the war
Fresh stars rose from the wave.
They kindled in her light,
And flashing DER the sea,
They formed a circle in the night,
Sign of eternity.
Confederate they stand
The glory of this sky,
An ever growing band
Strong in the Lord Most High.
May they forever shine
Upon the good and true,
Lighting to victorys shrine,
