Havana, Jan, AT noon to-day
the sovereignty of Cuba passed into
the hands of the United States, and
the reign of Spain upon the western
hemisphere came to an end. The
Spanish flag, which for so many cen
turtles has waved over the island,
was hauled down, and 10 it's place
was hoisted the stars and stripes,
which, within the last few months,
has been unfurled upon other con-
quered territory.
The american commissioners ar
rived at the palace soon afterward,
having ridden on horseback from La
VedG3o Within the palace all prep
aratious had been made to receive
the cor qIerers Capt. General Cas-
tellauo-, who succeeded Blanco,
was waiting. la the main hall of
the palace the meeting took place.
The staff Of the retiring captain, at
tired gorgeously, surrounded him.
He spoke briefly. delivering the
Island of Cuba to the United States.
Gen. Wade made brief reply, and
imme iiately turned the leland over
to Gen. Brooke, thh military gov
ernor
SPANISH FLAGS LOWERED.
Then took place the event which
must have cut like knife into the
heart of every Spauiard who wit
messed the ceremony. The Spanish
flag, which for over 400 years had
waved from the palace, was lowered.
At the same instant the yellow and
red banners on the famous Cabapas
fortress and Moro Castle came
down forever. As the Spanish flag
was lowered it was replaced by the
stars and stripes and as the latter
foated to the breeze it was saluted
with twenty one guns
After the American flag had been
hoisted the bands played the Ameri-
can national hymn, and this was
tremendous cheering by the crowd
that had assembled in Oblspo and
o Reilly streets near the palace, aud
in the Plaza de Armas Along the
Prado and other main streets 1OO,- !
coo persons frautically cheered the
Americans and the United States.
All the houses occupied by the
Cubans were decorated, the flags,
ETC., that had been taken down after
Gen. Ludlow's orders forbidding
demonstrations were replaced.
The United States flag was un-
furled on Cabanas by Lieutenant
Lee, Jr., and on Moro
Castle by Lieut.. Wade, a son of
Gen. Wade.
Gen. Fitzhugh Lee seemed to be
the lion of the hour As the crowd
surged about flowers were thrown
at him from balconies and opened
windows, and it was almost impos-
sible for him to force his horse
through the great concourse of peo-
pie.

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should BIO Carefully
Guided in Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from mothers ignorance; or more
frequently from II mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughtcr
Tradition says woman must suffer-"
and young women arc SO taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggcration in .his. If n young
woman Suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that She gets it.
Many mothers hesitate TO take their
daughters TO n physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs Pinllham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinlthau's address is
Lynn, Mass.
The following lcttcrfrom Hiss MARIE
f.. JOHNSON, Ccntrnlia, Pa shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
pintham helped her:
"My health became so poor that /
had to leave school. | was tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
side md back. 1 was also troubled
Wi,h HitS IVY VI ihNHHSo' w 'S

my friends became alarmed. My
mother, WHO'S IL firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they might benefit me- and wrote
YOU for advice. / followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia Il. Pinlihnm's
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
Won directed and am now as well as
ever was. l have gained flesh and have
good color. am completely cured Of

Especial to virglnlan-pilot.o

Hartford, n. c., March 25.-NIisses S.
Il Il. IIarveys millinery store, on
Church street, caught fire on the roof
from flying spark from the chimney
this morning about 10 o'clock. Several
persons Mt once ran to the scene of the
lire with buckets and ladders, and the
IRE was soon eXtlngushcd. The fire
was easily gotten under control, 1t be-
Ing discovered before there WAS much
Roadway of the fire. If the fire had
caught at night when the stores had
closed. and if there was any wind the
place would soon have burned 10 the
ground before the generous merchants
could nave gotten TO their stores in
time to furnish buckets To the people
who would assist in putting out the
fire. So one Will readily see that no de-
lay should be made on the part OF the
town authorities To provide some means
OF protection. 1t has been said by soy
eral persons If the town would buy
about a hundred zinc buckets and n
dozen light ladders. and place them in
some convenient place in each ward
that 1T would be one of the best WAYS
they could invest the money OF the
treasury. We think this good idea
and ask the authorities on the part of
the people in this town that this be
done at once. or If they have n better
plan let them carry IT into effect. This
is the second fire reported in one week.
and the good merchants OF our town
cant afford to furnish buckets for ev-
cry blaze.
