WANT NO PENSIONS.
Confederate Veterans of ocaIa, Florida,
Send Protest.

Washington, Jan. 11.-Mr Pasco,
(FIa-,) has presented to the senate a
memorial from a camp of confederate
veterans at Ocala, Fla, protesting
against the adoption of the proposition
of Mr.. Butler, IN. c. to pension ex-
confederate soldiers.
In this connection Mr.. Allen, CNeb.)
said: Il believe a word on this subject
is due at this point. 1 do not believe
there was ever serious purpose on the
part of the senator who is the author
of the proposed amendment to pension
confederate veterans. 1 think the
author of the amendment, like the
president of the United States, was car
ried away by his feelings. In my opin-
ion, altogether too much attention is
being paid to it.
1T would be an injustice to the rank
and file of the confederate soldiers to
say that they would consider seriously
any proposition to receive pensions.
They have cared for their cemeteries
and for their dead. 1t seems to me
that the whole matter can be closed by
saying that both the president of the
United States and the author of the
amendments were carried away by their
enthusiasm. In my Judgment speak
ing from the standpoint of a northern
soldier, it is time to close this incident.
1t may be closed by the happy thought
that all bitterness and sectionaliSm
have been wiped out by the late Span
iSh war;

A TREMENDOUS LANDSLIDE
A Hundred Acres of Hillside Fall In
to Frazer River.

Chica go, Ill. Jan. ia Tribune special
from Vancouver, British Columbia, says:
News was received here today of ire
mendous landslide near Spence's bridge
on the Canadian Pacific railroad. The
recent thaw had the effect of loosening the
sides of a small mountain which over
hangs the Frazer river at that point. This
mountain has long been a curiosity to
travellers because of its peculiar position,
lis fiat summit extending a considerable
distance over the river, which is narrow a
that point.
Shortly after midnight last night, with
a roar that could be heard for over mile,
fully 100 acres of hill, anywhere from 20
to 80 feet in depth, crashed into the Fra
Ter, damming it up completely and send
ing the water in torrents over the fertile
Nicola valley. The course of the river
was changed completely.
Now the Frazer, which, owing to the
fiat nature of the country, has grown into
a broad. majestic, but shallow stream. is
fully half mile out of its course. The
district is sparsely settled, and no lives
and houses, however, We're caught in the
flood and carried away, and thousands of
acres of valuable land will never be re-
claimed from the muddy waters of the
Frazer in its new course. At the point
where the masses of earth damned up the
river fat ice has gathered and raised high
into the air, forming an imposing and pic
turesque sight. The collapsed mountain
presents a queer aspect. 1t looks as if
dynamite had been discharged near its
ragged summit.

THE MAYOR IN JAIL.
Executive of Victor, Col, Imprisoned
at Colorado Springs.

Colorado Springs. Colo, Jan 11-Jas.
Doyle, mayor of Victor, Colo, and a
wealthy owner of mines in the Cripple
Creek district, occupies a cell in the
county Jail here, having been commit
ted by Judge Lunt, of the district court
for contempt of court. His alleged dis
regard of an injunction issued by Judge
Lunt against him not to prosecute a suit
brought by him at Council Bluffs, Ia,
against James F. Burnes, of the Port
land Gold Mining company, to recover
several hundred thousand shares of
Portland stock, caused Judge Lunt to
order his commitment. Mr.. Doyle was
in Denver when the order was issued,
but after learning of it took the first
train for this city and accompanied the
sheriff to Jail.
Doyle spent the day reading the pa
pers and has seen several friends He
declines, however, to say anything
about this case. His relations with the
officers are of the most friendly char
acter, and he seems to appreciate the
novelty as well as the unpleasantness
of his detention. 1t is expected that an
effort to secure his release on a habeas
corpus writ will be made tomorrow

A LUNCHEON TO MAsSO.
Cuban President Makes an Annexa-
ton Speech.

Santiago de Cuba, Jan. ia lunch
con was given yesterday to Barto1ome
Aasso, the former president of the Gu
ban revolutionary government, prior to
his departure for his home at Manzan-
zillo. Replying to the toast of his
health, Masso said he trusted to see the
American flag waving soon from every
house in Cuba. He then paid a glow
ing tribute to the magnificent work
done by General Leonard Wood in this
province. His remarks were loudly
cheered.
Senior Masso also said he said was not
in sympathy with the men who were
continuously Directing to everything
done in the island by Americans. 1t
was only necessary to see Santiago, he
continued, to witness the magnificent
results of American rule and he trust
ed provincial and civic autonomy would
be granted to the Cubans under a nom
inaI military head at Havana.
A band of music and large crowd of
people escorted Masso to the steamer,
the cheers being equally divided be-
tween Gen. MaSSo and Gen. Wood.
The auxiliary gunboat Mayf1ower has
left here carrying mails for New York
and leaving only the cruiser Detroit on
this station. A revenue cutter is much
needed here, as it is practically impos-
sible to properly patrol the coast with
out one.

A GIRLS SHARP SCISSORS.
Crowned Heads and Many Others of
High Rank Paid Her Honor.
[From the Lewiston Journal

From the Lewiston Journal
More than two hundred years ago
little girl was born at Amsterdam, Hol-
land whose name was jeanne Koetren-
She was a peculiar child in that she
cared nothing whatever for play and
sport, but found her greatest delight in
making copies of things about her. imi-
tating in wax every kind of fruit, and
making on silk, with colored floss, exact
copies of paintings, which were thought
wonderful.
But after she had become very accom-
plished in music, spinning and embroid-
cry, she abandoned all these for a still
more extraordinary art-that of cut
ting. She executed landscapes, marine
views, flowers, animals and portraits of
people of such striking resemblance,
that she was for a time quite the Won
der of Europe. She used white papers
for her cuttings, placing them over a
black surface, so that the minute
openings made by her scissors formed
the light and shade"
The Tsar, Peter the Great, and others
of high rank paid her honor. One man
high in office vainly offered her a thou
sand f1orins for three small cuttings.
The Empress of Germany paid her four
thousand forms for a trophy she had
cut, bearing the arms of Emperor Leo
pold, crowned with eagles and sur
also cut the emperor's portrait, which
can now be seen in the Royal Art Gal
lery in Vienna. A great many people
went to see her, and she kept book in
which princes and princesses wrote
their names.
