Falkland, N. c., Dec. ga most terri
BILE and shocking homicide was commit
ted at Falkland in a grog-shop on the
night of the 22nd The man that did the
awful deed was John Fl. Parker; the vic
tim, Aleck Little, both young men. II
we believe the coroner's jury, it was
direct murder No county has better
coroner than Pitt, and he chose jury
of splendid men. After careful investiga-
ton and hearing the evidence they
brought in a verdict that "Aleck Little
came to his death by pistol shot wound
at the hands of one John H. Parker, and
that without cause or provocation"
The concensus of opinion sustains the
verdict. Mr.. Little was poor man, but
iovial. full of fun, industrious and was not
the least considered troublesome. Mr..
Parker was, and is when under the in
fiuence of liquor, regarded as dangerous.
Parker is at large, Little being poor, OF
course there is no reward. Parker has
large respectable family connections with
considerable means. 1t surely is case
that appeals to the Governor to issue a
reward for the apprehension of Parker.
There is much excitement.

WAR AGAINST THE MOSQUITO.
Recognized by the Government as Trans
mitter Of Fsvers
(By the Associated Press. }

Washington, Dec 29.-The United
States Government has formally recog-
nized the responsibility of the mosquito
for the transmission of yellow fever and
malaral diseases. This fact is indicated
by the issuance of a general order by
Major General Wood, at Havana, directed
to his post commanders reciting that the
chief surgeon of the department OF Cuba
has reported that it is now well estab-
lished that malaria, yellow fever and
malarial infection are transmitted by the
bites of mosquitoes. Therefore the troops
are enjoined to observe carefully two
precautions. First, they are 10 use mos
quito bars in all barracks. hospitals and
field service whenever practicable; sec
ond, they are to destroy the 'wigglers'
or young mosquitoes by the use of pc
troleum on the waters where they breed.
Permanent pools or puddles are to be
filled up. To the others are TO be applied
one ounce of kerosene to each fifteen
square feet of water twice month which
will destroy not only the young, but the
old mosquitoes. This does not inJure
drinking water if drawn from below and
not dipped out. Protection is thus Sc
cured, according to the order, because
the mosquito does not fly far seeks shell
ter when the wind blows and thus each
community breeds it's own mosquitoes.

TIE QUESTION OF SUFFRAGE.
More Conservative Element in Cuba Against
Making it Universal.
(Bv the Associated Press. J

Havana. Dec. 29.--The Constitutional
Convention has not been in session
for several weeks. but the different
sections thereof, are busily al work
considering various clauses OF the
plans which have been offered by SEN
ors Rivera, Quesada and Maura. from
which it is hoped and expected con-
stitution will be wrought.
The chief bones of contention are
suffrage and the Presidency. For the
former there are various propositions,
although it is not possible from the
outside to gather all the phases OF
the topic. In the main it is boiled
down TO a decision as to- whether suf-
frage shall be universal or not. A
strong contention is being made by the
more conservative element TO base it
upon an educational and property
qualification basis. But the more
rabid element in the convention. led by
Juan Gualberto Gomez, negro, sup
ported by General Aleman, General
Lacret. Jose f. Monte9ndo and two
or three of the delegates from the
Eastern part of the island, is pressing
hard for universal citizenship. The
radical Republican element favors
tionals, heretofore the extremely rad
zeal element, rather lean toward re-
stricted suffrage. Theblacks OF the
island are so nearly one half of the
entire population that when the Span
iards by reserved citizenship with the
mother country. the Americans, the
English, the Germans and the French,
none of whom are accounted Cuban
i'm the political or governmental sense,
are counted out, they, the negroes, will
have a majority of the votes, should
universal suffrage carry.
The proposition to form a Federal
Government, with six States, Havana,
Pinar del Rio, MatanZas, Santa Clara,
Puerto Principe and Santiago is really
a fight for universal citizenship.
What the outcome will be seems
not difficult to determine. The Unit
ed States. it is claimed in certain
quarters here. can hardly accept uni
versal suffrage clause. Consequently
as it would be particularly hazardous
to grant this island a government
which might at some time be doml-
mated by the blacks and thus make
a Haiti or Santo Domingo OF it, II
is hardly drought of.
In the matter of the Presidency the
two Comes have reconciled their diff
ferences and are pulling together in
the effort to prevent the constitution
prohibiting the selection to that of
fee of a foreign born ciizen. This is
i'm the interest of the aspirations OF
Maxine Gomez.
