THE VENEZUELAN DISPUTE
ENDED.

Word came from Paris that the
Venezuelan arbitration commission
ers have made their report, which is,
as might be expected, compromise.
1t is hardly conceivable that in such
a matter one of the contending par
ties should have all the right on its
side. The decision is a triumph for
the cause of international arbitration
in a year when the professed belief
in the abstract principles has been
equalled only by the open disregard
of it in the international complica-
tions which have arisen in Alaska and
South Africa. While matters in the
latter part of the world have gone so
far that the prospect of arbitration is
hopeless, the Alaskan boundary ques-
ton remaing to be settled, and the
example of tho successful Venezue-
Ian arbitration ought to open the way
plainly for England and the United
States to follow.
How far this decision is victory
for the principle of arbitration may
be understood from the fact that the
negotiations for the determination of
the boundary have been carried on
internationally ever since 1s41. The
British claim was taken over from the
Dutch wnen 1.-THE colony was ceded to
them lin 1914, and the Venezuelans on
securing their independence in 1912
succeeded to the territorial claims
put forth by Spain. With the United
States acting as interviewer, the treaty
between Venezuela and Great Brit
ain was ratified at Washington in 1897,
each country appointing two COM
missioners and these selecting Pro-
lessor Martens Of st. Petersburgh as
president. This commission has been
at work in Paris since May 25 of this
year, and its conclusion has been
reached only after a vast amount of
labor. No less than nine boundary
lines were under consideration. The
report of the commission cuts down
the British claims in the interior to
considerable degree. Fully one third
of the Delta territory was claimed by
Great Britain and about one half of
the Yuruari country. Gable des-
patches indictae that the Delta claim
is dismissed, and the Yurnari claim
substantially modified, the agreed
boundary starting on the coast some
thirty miles east of the Schomburgk
line on the Waini river, and placing
a considerable portion of the gold
bearing territory within Venezuelan
limits. The settlement of this ques-
ton, which has been in dispute for so
many years, is less important, how
ever, than the success of the means
employed for it's settlement. These
are few international questions more
likely to lead to grave complications,
and more difficult of handling, than
those Of boundary lines, but now that
these Venezuelan negotiations have
been SO satisfactory, there is hope
that the Alaskan boundary may be
taken up in the same way.

During the winter of 1897, MIR James Reed, one
of the leading citizens and merchants of Clay,
Clay Co., w Va, struck his leg against cake of
ice in such manner to bruise it severely. 1t
became very much swollen and panied him so
badly that he could not walk without the aid of
crutches. He treated by physicians, also
used several kinds of liniment and two and a half
gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but nothing gave
any relief until he began using Chamberlan's
Pain Balm. This brought almost complete cure
in a weeks time and he believes that had he not
used this remedy his leg would have had to be
amputated. Pain Balm is unequalled for sprains,
bruises and rheumatism. For sale by Barron &
Hambet

Webster Citizens Accept
Edgar 5. Hills Gen
erous -Giff.

Webster, Nov. "a heavy vote was
cast at the election here today. The bal
lot box showed a total of 1924 votes. The
articles in the town warrant were all
quashed, as The Spy predicted right
along they would be. The articles asked
that the town purchase Beacon park,
the Narrows or some other suitable site
for a public park
The citizens defeated each of the four
articles and they were voted to be pass
ed over.
Hustling was kept up until the close
of the polls at o'clock and lively inter-
est was exhibited all day in the election.
Maurice p, Clare was chosen modera-
tor.
Many prominent citizens spoke on the
park question, the majority of them
arguing against the town needlessly eX-
pending money for a park, when Edgar
S. Hill had so generously given the town
the use of Beacon park.

FATHER AND son.

Every old bachelor has hobbies. But
I know only one hobby of which all of
them are equally guilty, and that is in
assuming to be counselors to their mar
ried friends. They really believe that
their counsel should be followed, too
They do not wait to be asked for advice,
but go out Of their way to offer it. If
one of the little arrangements INSOFAR
able from newly married life causes the
husband to manifest his disconsolate-
ness, his bachelor chum besieges him
with wise instruction, as though he
were a full-fedged dispenser of matri-
monial remedies. 1t always reminds
me of little steam craft trying to tow
a man-of-war into harbor.
Yet, must confess to having played
the part of the tug many times myself,
but instead of bringing round the man
of-war, l could get no further than the
tug of war.

THE proper constituents for Merry
Christmas are thus summed up in an
ancient book dated hundred and fifty
years ago:-"Good drinke, blazing fire
in the hall, brawne pudding and souse,
and mustarde with all, beef, mutton,
and pork shred or minced pies of the
best, pig, veal, goose, capon and tur-
key, cheese, apples and nuts, with jolie
carols" In the old days festivities
were continually in progress from
Christmas Eve until Twelfth Night, by "a
temporary merry officer known as "The
Lord of Misrule," being appointed at
the English Court and in the houses of
the mobiles and country squires, whose
sole duty it was to see that the jollity
did not flag during the period in ques-
ton. -McCall's Magazine.

THE women of Knoxville never tire
of doing good. After the strain and
actual labor of the Christmas Bazaar one
might suppose the Hospital and Build
ing Boards would feel like resting on
their well earned laurels. But no. In
stead, beautiful thought came to them
and was beautifully carried out. These
ladies arranged Christmas tree Fri
day, December 22nd, in the Woman's
Building, which gladdened the hearts
and delighted the eyes of two hundred
of the wee ones of God poor, whom we
have with US always. A ticket of adj
mission was furnished each child which
insured it share of the Christmas joys.

ONE is impressed as one grows older,
with the conviction that this is good
world. The good in humanity far out
weighs the evil. 1t is just a bad habit,
this of pronouncing the world bad, OF
denouncing human nature as sordid,
and evil thinking and i'll feeling. 1t is
when sorrow and trial come that the
garment of selfshness and Indifference
drops away, and the white soul of kind
ness and charity shines through.
