Eager to Honor Dewey.

Washington, May 16.-An old "sea
dog" who has known Admiral Dewey
for many years, says that the hero or
Manila bay will veto many Of the ar
rangements being made for his recep-
ton in this country. He reports Dewey
as being opposed to all ostentatious
display and says that he would rather
live at the Army and Navy club than
occupy an elaborate mansion such as
is suggested by those arranging popu-
lar subscriptions. 1t is probable, how
ever that the admiral's admirers will
proceed upon the theory that he will
be forced to accept the popular dem
onstration, and it is believed that a
handsome fund sufficient to purchase
or build magnificent residence will be
quickly raised.
Dewey's home coming by way
of the Mediterranean is likely to give
occasion for distinguished honors
from the navies of Europe.

The torera grew reckless. With
shrug OF her glistening shoulders she
stepped to the center OF the ring and
challenged the populace, then marched
straight up three steps, two steps with
in reach OF the lowered horns and
bloodshot eyes.
The crowds above her arise In a
body and stamped and shrieked, and
cried:
"Brava, bravo, Chispa Bravo, lit
tie one! Stick him! Stick him.
While Pietro's voice was loudest OF
all
Finish him. Chispal Finish him
now!" as he realized her danger.
"Oh, Cod" groaned the Boston
mans fair young soul within him as
he made for an opening somewhere
anywhere.
Que more step! The little brown
hand deliberately poised her saber to
make a fatal thrust, then at the sight
of the Boston mans white face, sud
den reckless impulse seized her. and
she turned and slashed the sign of
cross upon the glossy black forehead.
The crowds went dumb. Several
toreros leaped the wall, Pietro at their
head. The sand on the arena flew in
clouds, as if typhoon had struck it,
the sound of little stifed cry arose
above the hoarse believing of the toro,
and when the clouds of dust finally
cleared away the little spangled figure
did not rise. And after the now thor
oughly Infatuated beast was finally de-
spatched by Pietro's hand. the damp
curls, bound with the gay flowers, still
lay in the dust, but the eyes were lum-
nous and the breath came fast
Tell Pietro he almost saved met
was my own fault. Tell him-good by
and tell him 1t was him l loved all
the time. I've always been true to him
and I'll never"
The words came in gasps now, and
the sun-mocking eyes were growing
dim.

him-tell him the same."-San Fran

CHISPA, THE TORERA.

Morals are as surely a resultant or
fauna itself, and there is nothing
more elastic. A single code may reach
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, so
what wonder II. at the end, 1t is some
what attenuated.
This may have been the reason
certain young Bostonian's rigid code
could not stand the strain of Chispa's
charms, and yet-quien sabe? Pietro
had no code at all, and neither could
he Withstand the lovely torera.
And Chispa herself, she loved her
own sun-mocking eyes and wines-and-
olives skin, and when the bull lay dead
at her feet she received the salvos OF
applause that rained upon her with
an almost childlike grace, much as the
scarlet poppy receives the sun and
showers from heaven as her own in
alienable right and droops and dies
without them
But Chlspa, withal, was woman, so
she loves some one else, too.
oh, 1t is so sickening to read about
1t described in our Puritanical English
adjectives, but go there yourself, get
the smell Of blood in your nostrils, the
blaze or color in your eyes, the shouts
and shrieks of the people and the
blare OF the band in your ears, feel the
waves of eXultation surge over you
until they overwhelm you and sweep
along with them, and you suddenly
find you are cousin german to Tul-
liza or Kriemhilde.
The deep, bright blueness of the
southern sky bends over its favored
children as If it would Danish from
them every shadow of seriousness or
care, and must be gratified by the gor-
geous pageants they flash back in re-
turn. The Plaza al Toros is undoubt-
eddy the most brilliant picture the all
beholdfng sun looks down upon in all
his course. Being out of doors the eff
feet Is somewhat tempered by the at
mosphere, and yet at the first glance
the brain almost reels under the glare
and glitter of color. Tier upon tier Of
colors-strong. crude, primary hues at
that-stretch away from sol to somber,
puppies and reds, blues, yellows and
greens, that express. to the onlooker
something of the rudimentGry nature
of these people. The brilliant rebosas
and gay serepas put Joseph's coat Of
many colors to shame, sparkling eyes
and dazzling compilations, embrolder-
les, spangles, flowers, buntings and
flags, everything, in short, that is gay
and attractive combines to make the
scene intoxicating till the whole noisy
reckless, gorgeous concourse reminds
you of nothing so much as rainbow,

REMARKABLE STORMS.
Disasters ON Land aud Sea Around New
England.

An interesting review Of great storms
in New England has just been COM
pleted by A. E. Sweetland of the Blue
Hill observatory and issued as a bull
letin upon the great storm OF last No
vember and upon the cold wave OF
last February. The November storm
was found to be the most disastrous in
the records, in point of lives lost and
property destroyed, at sea. Among the
remarkable storms recorded may be
mentioned the following: Nov II,
1898, heavy snowstorm began, last
ing three days; Sept. 20, 1915, gale
caused immense destruction on land
and sea, the damage in Providence, r.
l., alone having been estimated at
s5,000000 In December, 1899, three
storms wrecked over 300 vessels on the
New England coast. On Oct. 2, 1871,
storm did much harm to the fishing
fleet 81 persons being lost from the
town of Truro, and many others along
the Cape Cod coast. On Oct. T. 1S49, a
bark went ashore on Minot's ledge and
143 persons were drowned. April 16,
1851, Minot's ledge light was carried
away, and great damage was done
along the coast. Jan. H. 1867, great
snowstorm caused large loss Of life
around Boston, from people getting
lost in the drifts. A depth of five feet
was reported from Dorchester. There
was a brief, but violent, storm Sept s,
1869, that damaged trees and houses
around Boston. The blizzard" Of
March u, 1888, effectually tied up the
railroads Of New England for five days,
causing much suffering and depriva-
ton from people caught away from
home in depots and stalled trains, that
were all but inaccessible to help from
the outside for three days. The storm
OF Jan. 81, 1898, shut out Boston from
communication with the outside world
for two days and impeded travel for
five days, but caused no great loss of
life. The storm of Nov q, 1898,
wrecked 141 vessels along the New
England coast, and 455 persons lost
their lives, including 175 persons (esti-
mated) from the Portland, which was
lost with all on board. There was
great destruction of property along
the shore from the high tide acting
with the gale, and remarkable feat
ure was the great fall Of snow so early
in the year. The graphical records of
the storm elements, which form a
large and the most valuable part of
Mr.. Sweetland's paper, show. aside
from data on the direction. which af-
fects speculation on the site of the
Portland's destruction, record of I'M

Fire Burn. Freight I'm Texas.

San Antonio, Texas, May 16.-Nearly
100000 worth of property was burned
international yards at Eagle Pass at IL
o'clock Saturday night. The transfer
depot, yard engine and nineteen
laden freight cars were totally de-
stroyed. The Mexican volunteer fire
department crossed the Rio Grande and
did valuable service. One Of the fire.
men was fatally injured by an explo-
sion in the burning warehouse.

Mckinley to Force Payment.

Washington, May 16.-President Nc
Kinley is taking personal interest in
the case of Archie McCarter, an Amer
lean citizen, who asks the United
States to compel the republic of Co
lombia to pay him $4,000 indemnity
for false Imprisonment and fearful tor
lures inflicted upon him by the Colon
bian officials. The state department
has the case ready for presentation
and it is probable that the Detroit,
now at Bluefelds, will be sent to Co
lombia to enforce payment.

AMERICAN PROTECTORATE.
Considered by Frenchmen Only Question

Considered by Frenchmen Only Question
of Time In the Philippines.
Paris, May 16.-Interest here in the
Philippines has diminished greatly
now that the decided front presented
by the Washington government has
convinced even the most ardent Euro
pean sympathizers with the Tagalos
that the Americans have gone into the
archipelago to stay. 1t is decisively
admitted now that the establishment
of an American protectorate is only a
question of time.
An impartial observer is struck with
the fact that this determined policy
has increased the respect in which
Europe holds the United States.
Newspaper editorials and converse
tions plainly show this.

GIVES ADVANTAGE TO AMERICA.
German View of tho Political situation

Oermnn Wow or tno POLITICAL Situhtion
In tho United States.
Berlin, May 16.-The United States
entrance into world politics is amply
discussed in the National Zeiturg. This
journal is the authorized organ OF the
national liberal party In its opinion,
American control in Cuba and the pos
session of Porto Rico assure to the
United States the predominant advan-
tage In the Panama or Nicaragua canal
as soon as one of these proposed water
ways shall unite the Atlantic and Pa
cific oceans.
America is already a great indus
trial and commercial power" the Eel
tung says, "and 1t will soon become
great military power. Imperialism is
more and more coming to possess the
whole nation. The change OF view In
military affairs has already been eff
fected, Tor the establishment OF Ameri-
can domination in the Philippines Is,
as one sees, possible only through call
ing into existence and maintaining a
standing army.

find in their path serve only to AMI
mate them to renewed efforts"

Mckinley Hears from Otis.

Hot Springs, Va, May 16.-Secretary
Alger forwarded to the president Sun
day some dispatches from Gen. Otis.
They advised him that another COM
mission from Aguinaldo was on its
way to Manila to discuss terms of
peace. No instructions were sent from
here to Gen. Otis, the policy being, as
heretofore, to leave matters entirely
with him.
1t Is not unlikely that the president
and Mrs. Mckinley will leave for
Washington Thursday or Friday.

SEIZED HER.
a sunset and a thunderstorm COM
bined.
Two bulls had been killed already
amid wild applause and wilder excite
ment, but as the matador was a man
the keen edge of enthusiasm was held
In allegiance till the lively Chispa
should take the field. Fresh sand was
sprinkled on the arena, flowers, bon
bons and coins were showered over
the erstwhile CORY scene, and the
smell of blood was soon mitigated by
the heavy scents of the fans that fiut-
tered through the air. And fair and
fitting was it all for the little torera,
the flowers, the music and the APP
plause as she stood serenely in the
center of the ring. The wide sun
knocking eyes wandered along the low
er tiers until they met and chung so
long to the horror-stricken eyes of the
New Highlander there was only an in
slant left to catch a reassuring dart
from the faithful Pietro before the
toro was led in. Amid a fanfare OF
trumpets, a moment of breathless sus-
pense, then a tremendous crash OF APP
plause. the great black beast bounded
into the ring. The capeadores and
banderilleros stepping high in brocade
and spangles, the mounted picadores
stiff in tinsel embroideries, lined up
and saluted the presiding officer of the
day, but Chispa Is the bright partic-
ular star, and as long as she can keep
the field she may.
With a careless recognition OF the
eager multitude over her, she made
little mock courtesy to Senior Toro,
and grasped her saber with the same
calm assurance the Girton girl grasps
her racquet. Even the great black
beast could not be utterly insensible
to the fair young creature who defied
him, and at first seemed disposed to
regard her insults as merely the in
discretion Of her 'thoughtless youth
But the crowds grew eager for the
combat, and the tiny silver ankles
twinkled about as the little wisp OF
girl nirted her red capa in his face,
menaced him, goaded him, thrust at
him like some small fiend, until his
dignity was quite outraged. Still the
bull remained sullen; what could he
DO? The spirit OF Spanish gallantry
was in the air. The crowd had ap-
plauded itself hoarse, and now began
TO groan In the slowness Of the game.

What "KalsomInes" Are.

"Kalsomines" are cheap temporary
preparations manufactured from
chalks, clays, whiting, etc, and are
stuck on the wall with decaying AMI
NAL glue. They hear no comparison
with Alabastine, which is cement
that goes through a process Of setting
and hardens with age. Consumers In
buying Alabastine, should see that the
goods are in packages and properly
labeled. Nothing else Is Just as
good" as Alabastine. The claims OF
new limitations are absurd on their
face. They cannot offer the test Oh
time for durability.

into a nest of insurgents concealed in
the brush and on both sides of the Rio
Grande river, three miles above Cal
umpit, yesterday afternoon and were
received with heavy volleys at short
range.
A sergeant belonging to the Utah

and that these ultimately will be
pressed against the United States gov

not yet been presented. The French
claims aggregate between 100000
and 100000 francs. The German
claims are understood to be slightly
under those of the French, while the
British claims are said to be consid-

Described I'm a Word.

The members of the Flemish Acad-
envy, of Anvers, recently determined to
frame a word which would be readily
ineligible to all who understand the
language of Flanders and who had
ever seen horseless carriage, and the
result was that after much deep
thought they framed the following
word: Snelpaardelooszonderspoorweg-
petrolrijtuig. This euphonious word
signifies "a carriage which is worked
by means of petroleum, which travels
fast, which has no horses and which is
not run on rails" This is, from one
point Of view, fine example of null
tum in parvo, but 1t may be questioned
whether one extraordinarily long word
Is preferable to half a dozen short
words. The Flemish people, however,
think differently, and the scademicians
of Anvers have been highly compu-
mented by them on their linguistic
skill as seen in this unique word.

Workers, who have returned from the
