FIVE stockholders, including Judge
Cooper, OF Mt. Sterling, whose entire
holdings are but $50, have brought suit
TO throw the Louisville Dispatch into
the hands of receiver and restrain 1t
from putting on the market the soO,OOO
worth of bonds recently issued by the
company. The petition declares that
the paper Is deeply in debt and is run
ming at heavy loss, that President
Allen II. Carter is keeping 1t up by
contributions from corporations ano
that when he gets himself and friends
paid he will let IL drop. Sundays Dis
patch answers the petition and the
charges by presenting proof oil their
falsity and roasting everybody and
everything connected with the attempt
to wreck democracy's only State organ.
Senator Goebel and the Courier-Journal
are charged with backing the scheme
and they, the ''little lawyers OF no
standing" who appear in the case, the
five dummy plaintiffs ct i'd omne genus

1t is the red-hottest tamale that ever
appeared in the Louisville journalistic
world and II there are not a dozen

least those Kentuckians who are roast
ed, will lose their reputation for valor.
The Dispach gives most plausible
story, which, however, may hold good
no longer than another is told.

The crown prince of Sweden, acting as regent during the indisposition of his father King Oscar, is having al- most as unhappy time as a gold bug in a free silver convention. The Nor wegian end of the dual kingdom re- gards the aggressive Gustaf with such extreme disfayor that royalty, as rep resented in his person, was subjected a few days ago to the humiliating ex- perience of being snOw-balled in the public street; and now sixty members of the legislative assembly of Norway have added insult to injury by declin- ing the princes invitation to dinner. But he is largely to blame in the latter instance fer his own disconfture As in the case of New Works Jeffersonian banquet and MT Croker, New YcGk's regent, he should have made sure of his acceptances before issuing his in vitaticns.

PRESENTS FOR THE BRIDE.
Those Made By Loving Fingers Prob
 ably the Most Appreciated.

'eThe wedding present as an insti- trtion cannot be ignored writes Frances E. Lanigan in the March La dles' Home Journal. Tt should be, and almost always is, a matter of pleasure to both recipient and giveT, and when properly given-that is, in cases where intimacy and affection warrant it's being sent-it is most charming institution. Wedding pres ents are sometimes objected to on the grund that they compel young people to start their married llTe handicapped with the overhanging shadow of gifts which must eventually be repaid in kind. Where such a shadow is it de- serves to be, for less kindly apprecia- ton of the interest and affection of ones friends can scarcely be imagined than this. The wedding present in al- most all cases represents a token of good will and affectionate interest, and should be so received.
 ''Let no one be deterred from send ing a wedding present because of her inability to send something costly or elaborate. Many pretty and useful things may be purchased nowadays for very little money, and many dainty ar ticles suitable for personal or house hold use may be made by reasonably clever hands. Probably the presents most valued by the average bride are those which are made by the loving hands of her friends

TOLD OF OUR SENATORS.

Ten members of the United States senate have passed the three score and ten mark, but Senator Pettus, of Ala bama. who is IS, is now the oldest mem Der.
 Senator Allison, who has been in the senate for 5 years. was one of the sec retaries of the republican national con- vention of 1860 and as such it was he who announced the nomination of Lin coin.
 When Senator Burrows returned to Washington after winning his fight for reelection in Michigan he was the re- cipient of many congratulations. Sen ator Elkins said: "Pingree made you dig potatoes. though. didn't he?" 'Oh, yes" was the reply. but l found great many more than our governor ex- pected me to find"
 During the course of speech in the senate the other day Mir. Ca1fery, of Louisiana, read long extract from a large, clothbound volume. Some of the phrases attracted the atention of Sen ator Spooner, who was among MT. Caf- ery's auditors, and he asked: From what is the senator reading?" "I am reading" replied Mir. Caffery. with crushing emphasis, from the constitu- tion of the United States"
 Somebody recently published a state ment that Mir. Jones. of Nevada. was the wealthiest man in the United States senate. Since then he has been over whelmed with begging letters of all sorts. He declares that since the pub lication referred to he has been asked for sums aggreGating over million dol lars. adding his belief that he at pres ent holds worthless Fronissory notes for something like half that sum, most ly given in sums of $10O or less.

When we were about to give up hope of more news, slowly, at nine minutes
 past midnight, the glass needle of the recorder began to trace in the wavy thread-like line of deep blue message characters which told us that the good news was true This also was from Col. Allen, and it confirmed his earlier dispatch, and gave the additional in- formation that the whole Spanish fleet had been overtaken and destroyed, and that Admiral Cervera and the sur vivors of his crew were our prisoners. In one minute this message was in the Presidents hands at Washington. Then the doors of the cable office, which had been locked during the evening, were opened. and a sigh of grateful relief and eongratulation went up from all present

Tn casting about for candidate for mayor this spring the republicans of Phoenix would do well to consider MT. H. c. Yaeger of this city. MT. Yaeger is a staunch republican and possesses qualifications which are essential to the successful administration of the affairs of the city's chief office. He is cultivated gentleman first of all, an entertaining speaker, a successful man of affairs, progressive citizen of Phoenix who believes in it's future. We do not know that MT. Yaeger will be a candidate, but he would make an ad- mirable one and we are certain that the republicans of the city would give him their earnest support, and that he would be eiectsA It is t5. be hoped that the friends of MT.

HOW THE GOOD NEWS CAME
 FROM SANTIAGO.

The first intelligence of the destruc- tion of Cervera's fleet, says Grant Squires in the March Atlantic, was re- ceiyed at the cable office six hours be fore it was given ether to the press or the public At half past seven on the evening of that day a message from Col. Allen, the signal officer in charge of the cable communications in the Vi cinity of Santiago, was read from the recording tape of the FIayti cable. It gave him the news of the flight of the Spanish fleet out of the harbor, and told how the vessels, enc by one, were either burned or baached % Tine President and his cabinet received il within five minutes after it's receipt in New York and it was for them to de
 termine the use to be made of it. Swiftly tie wires ticked the wish back Of the President that the news be guarded until it could be verified, and at o'clock began the effort to confirm, in the shortest possible time, this most startling and gratifying news x * Then followed anxious hours of wait ing by the administration for the de-
 tails which we were striving to get for them. The time passed slowly, as when one watches by the bedside of sick person; we bent over the tiny tape of paper, slowly unwinding its coil as it passed beneath the nSedle-like point of the recorder, making no sign for minutes nor for hours of the news so eagerly desired. Ten o'clock, Il o'clock. midnight, and still no answer; but in the meantime the line between New York and Washington had not been silent, for the officials al the cap itcl were as impatient as Ws wsre.

WHY INTERVIEWING PLEASES.

I have often asked myself why 1t Is
 that the interviewer will sometimes
 get so much more wisdom out of a
 man, says John Burroughs ill the
 March Atlantic, and so many more fresh and entertaining sentiments-in
 shunt, so much better literatlre-thatl
 the man can get out of himself. Is IL
 because ones best and ripest thoughts
 rise to the surface, bike the cream on
 the milk, and does the interviewer
 simply skim them off Maybe that in
 writing we often dip too deep, make
 too great an effort. Interviews are
 nearly always initeresting-m more so than d formal studied statement by
 the intervieMee himself. Many Q
 piece of sound excellent literature has been got out of a man who had no skill with the pen at all His spoken word is vital and real; put pen in his hand. and the fire Is quenched at once. Hence, the charm Of letters, of diaries, of the simple narratives and reGitals of pio- neers, farmers, workers or persons who have no conscious literary equipment, As Sainte-Beuve discovered, every peasant has style" because he has reality. Who would not rather read q bit of real experience of a soldier in battle, such as a clever interviewer could draw out of him, than to read his generals studied account of the same engagement? 'tTo elaborate is of no avail" says our poet. Learned and unlearned feel that it is so." Only the great artist can rival or surpass the sense of reality we often find in common speech.
 In Dr. JOhnson's talk as reported by we touch the real man; in the Rambler you touch only his clothes or or pe1iwig. His nliCre formal writing seems the product of some kind of ar tiicial put-on faculty, like the Sunday sermons one hears or the newspaper editorials one reads. The sermon is in what may be called the surpiced style, the Rambler in the periwigged style. Emerson said of Alcott that his con versatfcn was wonderful, but that when he sat down to write, his inspl- ration left him. Most men are wiser in company than in the study. What is interesting in a man is what he him. self has felt or seen or experienced. II you can tell us that, we shall listen eagerly. The uncuItured man does not know this, but seeks the far off or the ieep down. tI

MUTUAL INTEREST THE CLOSEST

l should like to say q great many more things if l had space. 1 should like to say that developing common tastes is a great bend Eetween hu5- band and wife. Opinions and convic- lions may widely differ without affect ing married happiness, but for really good fellowship tastes must coincide. They must like to do the same things, to go to the same places, like the same things interesting, and each must be satisfied with the way in which the other conducts himself or herself in the small prcprjeties of life. For ill marriage, as in all the rest of living, only the occasional moment finds US on the heights; our days and our years must be spent in the Valley of Com monplace Thirgs.-Helen Watterson Moody in the March Ladies Home Journal.

PARTY AND HANS
 RRFITMANN'S


 All the country now knows that Boss Croker of New York is going to give 9
 isarty at his club on Jefferson's birth
 day. The event has been thoroughly
 well advertised Croiker seems to have
 been of several different minds about
 his party, however, since he decided
 to give it. The public's first informa-
 tiOn was that it would be an affair of
 national scope and significance. Then
 we were told that it was to be a strictly
 New York affair. Now the original l idea seems to have been taken up
 again; this is, at any rate, the natural inference from the correspondence be-
 tween ex-Colonel William J. Bryan of
 Nebraska and Perry Belmont, Croker's
 thaliarch. will you eat dinner with
 us2'' says Perry. Will you publicly accept the great principles of my Chi cago platform ?' says William. That's neither here nor there" says Perry. The impression left on the mind by this correspondence is that the ex- colonel does not mean to show up at Croker's party. The Hon. David B. Hill evidently did not expect to be there when he made his. speech at the recent Depew dinner. He told his re- publican entertainers he hadn't re- ceived an invitation, and he gave them to understand that he didn't want one.
 It really looks as if there might be more letters than guests at Croker's party. Correspondent Curtis wrote from Washington the other day to the Chicago Record:
 go far as I can learn, every demo- crat in congress who has received an invitation to the Croker banquet in New York has sent his regrets, includ- ing Chairman Jones of the national committee. Bailey, Silver Dick Bland, Congressman De Armond, Bankhead and Richardson, who are candidates for Bailey's position as leader Senators Vest, Cockrell Caffery, McEnery, Chil- | ton, Mills, Mitchell Roach, Rawlins | and other senators and representatives from the states that composed the Lou isiana purchase. In the first place | they are opposed to expansion, which | is to be the chief subject of speech, and | in the second place they do not think their constituents would like to have them attend a $10-apiece dinner, pre- sided over by Perry Belmont, who is a member of the firm that represents the in this cauntry and handled the bond issues of 1893 and 1894"

Even the last vestige of pretense of representative character has been stripped from the Cuban assembly by the action of Cuban generals, who command soldiers that actually fought, in disavowing it's insult to General GS- meg and it's foolish diatribes against the United States. The war depart ment at Washington makes a timely announcement in declaring explicitly that it will recognize no organization pretending to represent the Cuban peO- pie. No body of that kind can be rec ognized until the t11ops have dis banded and returned to work, until a census of the population has been talk en, and until lawful election can be held.
