Bridgeport, Conn, April 3.-At the
city and town election held here to-day
Hugh Stirling, the republican nominee,
was elected for mayor, and Albert La
very for city clerk, defeating their dem
ocratic opponents by fully 1000 major

the treasurer tax collector and town

the scratching and pasting indulged in

be we'll into the morning before the Off

PAYMENT OF CUBAN ARMY
TROUBLESOME QUESTION DELAYS
DEPARTURE OF FOL UNTEERS.
hcfal Lists-Amertcan Military Au-
thortties Impatient and Dtsgusted
Attitude of the Cubans Excessively Ir-
rttating.

Havana, April 3.--Among military
men all the talk is of the departure of
the remaining volunteers, which will
probably be delayed for a couple of
weeks until the Cuban army question is
nearer settlement. AS General Gomez
is unable to supply accurate lists of the
Cuban army and as the Cuban assembly
still retains the official lists the Ameri-
can military authorities outwardly ap-
matter of fact, they are impatient and
disgusted. The whole attitude of the
Cubans in this matter is excessively irri-
tating. Meanwhile the report that the
$3,000,000 may be returned to the United
States is being circulated and has in
creased the feeling against the assem-
bly,, whose members are apparently in
different. The next session of the as
sembly will be held on Thursday.
When Secretary Alger was here he
discussed with Governor General
Brooke the question of charging upon
the customs receipts the cargo of ra-
tions expected on the Comal. The mat
ter was left open. To-day the Comal,
with million rations, arrived; and as
no decision has yet been reached by the
governor general as to whether the sup
plies are to be charged to the United
States or to Cuba, the distribution is
likely to go on without regard to it.
Seventy-five thousand rations will be
distributed at Neuvitas; $4,000 at Las
Tunas; 10000 at Trinidad; 100000 at
Matanzas; 100000 at Cienfuegos, and
480, 900 at Havana. The Comal did not
bring either sugar or rice, both of which
will be brought in the Cuban markets.
The decision as to where to charge this
particular item rests at Washington.

Hartford, Conn, April 3.-The town
and city election to-day was distin-
guished by general apathy and light
vote. Less than A per cent, Of the to-
tai vote was polled this being account
ed for by the fact that the democrats
made nominations for only the minori-
ty representation to which the party Is
entitled in the several town boards and
school committees. The election was
only for selectmen, grand jurors, con-
stables, school visitors and high school
committee and the common council.
The common council stands forty three
republicans and seventeen democrats,
democratic gain of six. This gives a
republican majority of twenty-six on
joint ballot and ensures the election of
republican candidates FOR city attorney,

In the Minneapolis Tribune

In the Minneapolis Tribune
Mrs. Livermore is made to say
''That obstacles are merely mis-
sionaries TO educate man, and
force him to become what other
wise he would not be-" This may
at first sight appear paradoxical
and unfair, and then again if we
consider carefully ourselves and
the opportunities we have lost, we
will realize the truth of the state
ment. How many Of us have lost
some of our golden days, days that
had we used them in a proper
channel would have yielded a
beautiful result? How many Of
us but must confess that misfor-
tune came upon us through our
own careIessness and lack of prop
er attention to our affairs or more
correctly speaking, a disregard to
the duties we owe to mankind.
There are ties that bind us to the
human family, and these ties re-
quire from us certain duties which
if properly rendered will always
hold for us place in the outside
world, and bring to us a pleasant
home and family surroundings Of
a pleasing and grateful quality.
But when these duties are neg
lected, then we suffer, and some
times we are taken from those
family ties and our business also,
and then we suffer vain regrets.
But regrets are not vain if the
heart can only be found in the
right place. If when we are sepa-
rated from those we love, we come
to a proper realization Of the dut-
les we have neglected, and deter
mine to do better in the future.
Then indeed are the obstacles
friends in disguise
The fact that SO many bright
men are to be found within a
state institution goes to show that
they have been neglectful in some
of the duties they owe to the COM
mon brotherhood Of man and per-
haps also to the ones they love.
But when their Imprisonment
awakens the inward goodness;
when the good that heretofore has
| lain dormant arises. and with tho

Love is immortal. If 1 die

Love is immortal. If die
Before you, dear, and over me
The clover blossoms WOO the bee,
And little viOlets, sweet as shy,
Peer through the grass above my face
To smile at you when you come near
Lean down and listen-you will hear
A whisper stirring in the place.
And in that whisper you will know
The voice you loved so we'll of old,
Striving to tell the love untold
And as your footsteps come and go
About your tasks, the whole day through,
Loves message, whispered by the
flowers,
Will fill with gladness all the hours,
For you will know think of you.
For well know that love would thrill
My heart of dust, if 1 were dead,
And you came to my grave and said.
Dear heart, do you remember still?"
And when felt the suble stir
OF love that dies not, would make
You conscious of the truth. and take
The flowers for my interpreter.
BY EBEN E. REXFoRD, In Frank Leslie's
Popular Monthly.
The above beautiful verses bring
to my imagination thoughts far
reaching in the wonderous beyond.
How beautiful the thought to
think and feel that love can never
die - that love of husband and
wife, of father and mother, of
sister and brother in this world
will be awakened in that mys-
ferrous future into which we all
must 60. Let us try to cultivate
that love which is sure to bring
us into the beautifed home of the
soul; into that place prepared for
us from the foundations of the
world. Our consideration shall
now be devided into the profile
NAUTICAL question Of heaven and
hell.
First: - What is hell? Some
churches teach the doctrine OF
purgatory and hell. Others NEARLY
say it is place of departed spirits
Some say fire and birthstone, but
we say that "hell is a place where
love dwelleth not" We call il
in the spirit land "The Kingdom
of Shades" 1t is a place where
the soul or spirit of the departed
wanders up and down, to and fro
never ceasing, never resting, al.
ways wandering, never finding
ever looking for "Love." The
heart is empty, the soul is hungry
the spirit burneth, the eye meand-
ers, the man or the woman is &
shade, a shadow. Its former
beauty exists no more. They
seek destruction but it comett
not. They hunger to die but they
die not.
Shadows on this side, shades or
that side, like unto themselves
They hate to see each Others
shade, and pass each other by il
scorn and deep derision. In pass.
