Discontentin Cuba.

Havana, Nov. 2S.-Indications that
the Cubans are determined to resist the
appointment OF 9 civil governor for Gu
bs are Increasing rather than decreas-
ing, though there is disposition in
some quarters TO minimize the hostile
feeling, CHASING it with the grumblings
over minor American Innovations
which have been heard from time to
time, but have proved of no signifi-
cacce. TIE present grievance Of the
Cuban is q more serious affair. Toe
sancorous feeling is not confined to q
class or faction, but is shared by Cnbans
OF all political parties. Important
evidence OF this was the be-
ginning last night of movement for
the amalgamation Of all the Cuban poll
tica clubs. The object of this amalgs-
nation is to resist the alleged attack Oh
Cuban independence. Every American
in Havana believes that an outbreak
oainst the Americans has been planned
although as yet no overt act on the part
u tue Cubans has bt en- traceable by the
authorities. The natives are known to
nave 10000 rifles and the newspaper
correspondents here, who have investi-
gated the situation, concur in the be-
lief that trouble of serious nature is
brewing although there is a disposition
on the part of some of them to postpone
a publication of the facts.

Awful Dream was True.

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 2S.-The dream
OF wife, separated from her husband,
that she saw him in the act of killing
himself, the yerifcation of it in the
husbands suicidal act upon the grave
of their child in Baltimore Cemetery,
and their reconciliation yesterday at
the dying mans bedside made up a
strange story, but one of reality. Sew
eral months ago, just after their child
had died, John Zang's wife left him.
She told her friends that be had ILL
treated her. Since then the husband
had been very respondent over the
death of his child and the loss OF his wife.
He sought her frequently and begged
her to return to him, threatening to kill
himself if she refused. She turned q
deaf ear to his eDtreaties until Saturday
last when she told friends that she was
anxious about him as che had dreamed
Friday night that she saw her husband
shoot himself in a graveyard, and heard
her little dead child calling her to 60 to
him. Sunday she made inquiries about
hsr husband, and that night late she
was infor med by newspaper reporters
that be had shot himself through the
temple on the grave of their child. She
WIS overcome by the terrible shock and
recalled her prophetic dream. Early
yesterday morning she went to the
Johns Hopkins Hospital and cav him.
The wounded man was then uncon
scious, but later he seemed to recognize
her, and she says she has forgiven him.

THE SCHOOLS.

The biennial report of the superin-
tendent of public instruction, in prepar-
alton for the legislature, presents some
interesting facts. The total enrolment
of pupils for the year 1899 was 35S, S25;
white, 241, 1896; colored, 117.129. The
attendance was about 1900 less than in
1898, accounted for by extremely cold
weather last winter and smallpox in
some localities. The increase of school
revenues over last year was over So
900, and the increase is steady, owing
to the wise management OF the literary
fund.
The Number of school houses this
year shows an increase over last year,
the number in 1898 being Z, l73, and for
this year, 7,21S,
The number of colored teachers has

THE WAR IN AFRICA.

Interest in the South African war
still centers in the column OF 1000 men
with which Gen. Lord Paul Methuen is
striving to advance to the relief of
Kimberley.
There has been suppression of facts
about Methuen's battle at Gras Pan
last Saturday. The naval brigade OF
500 men which accompanies him, it
was announced yesterday, lost los men
in killed and woundcd-over 20 per
cent. General Methuen continues
slowly his advance toward Kimberley,
in Cape Colony. The outlook, how
ever, in Cape Colony Is not as encour
aging for the British as in Natal. The
majority of the people on the frontier
nave declared for the Beers. Bands OF
msrauders are destroying everything in
sight.
Tie Ninth Lancere, a crack regiment
that was sent to pursue the retreating
Beers, has not yet been heard from AID
there are fears that the Beers have cap
tured the command.
1t is suspected in London that the
Beers are pushing reinforcements over
from the Orange Free State to join the
army that is opposing Methuen with o
view of overwhelming him.
Dispatches, purporting to come from
President Kruger and Gen. Joubert,
found on a Boer prisoner in Natal,
stated that the Beers would fall back
from Belmont, near Gras Pan, to War
renton, 80 miles north of Kimberley.
This ia not believed.

A CARD FROM NIB. BUTLER.
the Editor If ths Alsxsndria a,zelta

To the Editor IF the Alexandria Gazette:
Dear Sir-In your report OF the congregs-
ton i meeting which was held in the First
Baptist Church on Sunday last there appear
several great mist ,kes which reflect very se-
llously lyon the pastor of said church, aud
which are calculated to injure his influence
N This community and elsewhere. These
mistakes L hasten 10 correct, and most re-
spect uliy ask of you to do the same in t.
days lssue OF your paper. The first mistake
referred u is this: aftsr calling attention to
the meeting which Was hell and the nioders-
tor who presided, you GO on to say that "the
past II, Rev. j. Ii. Butler, was the first speaker.
He made statement OF the fnsnciai condi-
ton of tho church, in which he showed that
for about fifteen months the expenditures had
exceeded the receipts and that the church
was in debt, aud its obligations gradually but
surely increasing at the rate of about thirty
dollars mouth"
Now the pastor empbatically denies having
made any such statement Again you report
him as saying to the church that Two hun
dred ind orty-one dollars sod sixty cents
Was now uue nlm for salary, while the church
YVES in debt In many other ways"
This stalemeut is also incorrect, and hiss
not word of truth in it. as every one that
was present at the meeting will testify. And
then again you go on further to state that
Mr. Batter said the fault of this condition
might rest with HIM and might not; it could
have been superinduced by the members of
the church. If the latter placed the respon-
slbili.y on him and his resignation would
bring about another regime he would dissolve
his connection with the church."
Now Mr.. Butter said no such thing, and
your informant or reporter must have drawn
largely on his Imagination at the time he
gave you this Information, or else such
statement would not have appeared in your
paper.
Finally you say that he ii. e. Mr.. Bntler)
further stated that should any movement be
inaus TO decrease his salary he would
resign step he would take anyway should
the debts on the church remain. This state.
ment is also wholly without any
foundation in fact, and grestly grieves
not only the pastor himself, but the
members of his church also, many OF
whom are readers of your paper. And now
in conclusion, Mr.. Editor, ask only to be re-
ported correctly and earnestly request also
that in the future whenever you wish to
make any mention Of the Baptist Church, its
pastor or It's own private business affsirs in
Jour columns, you Will please ses the pastor
or one of lis official or responsible members
and get the facts before you proceed to put
l.sh them to the world. Respectfully,
J. b. BUTLER, Pastor.

The Ninth Lancers.

London, Nov. 2S.-General Methuen
reports that the 9th Lsncers
lost one killed and eight wounded 10
the battle of Gras Pan. He mentions
no missing, hence the war Office sup
poses the regiment which was reported
to have been captured by the Beers
returned in safety. General Methuen's
reporG caused great sigh of relief Oh
the part of the crowd of anxious friends
and relatives waiting for news of the
missing regiment. While Mathuen did
DOT say the Lsncers had rejoined his
command, the inference Of the war Of
fee that the regiment was safe, was
generally acceptable.

a RISING is now threatened in Cuba.
Well, the only strange thing about this
is that a 'rising" has not occurred there
long ago. A large portion of the o. S.
army that was in Cuba has been sent to
the Philippines, and as the dread OF
that army has worn of and most Of the
money Mr.. Mckinley gave them has
been spent, the Cubans have been re
markedly quiet during the past year.
Life and property will not be likely to
be safe there, outside of military camps,
for a long time.
