the Municipal league has elected three,

POLES ARE CAUTIOUS.
No Purpose Of Rising in Armed Re-

Chicago, Feb. 2l.-Polish citizens OF
Chicago are divided on the question OF
the existence OF a secret league TO free
Poland In case OF war between Russia
and England az any time in the near
future. News OF the recent arrests In
Lemberg and the statements by prom
inent Poles in this city are the principal
topics OF discussion among Poles. Some

Alderman John f. smulski, a promi-
nent Pole. spoke as follows:
II have noticed a number Of items
concerning the recent arrests Of sup
posed Polish reyolutionists In Warsaw
and Lemberg, also Of an alleged secret
organization in Chicago which Is sup
posed to cooperate with the conspira-
tors in Warsaw and Lemberg. As one
individual ] wish TO deny the existence
Of any secret organization In this city
In saying this / feel satisfied that the
vast majority Of the Polish residents In
this city are OF the same opinion and
that the Poles now resident under the
governments Of Russia. Germany. and
Austria, who are led by men Of ma
ture thought and experience, certainly
appreciate the present situation. They
know that such a movement would be
impossible and would only result in
greater prosecutions, and that a move
ment to overthrow the governments Of
Russia, Germany and Austria would be
madness.
I'VE have had three revolutions by
force Of arms. They We're all unsuc-
cessful. Every one Of the instructions
resulted each time In prosecutions and
deportation Of thousands OF men and
families 10 Siberia, confscation Of prop
erty, countless executions and the
devastation Of the country.
The three former unsuccessful at
tempts have taught the Polish people
to be. cautious. Since 1868 they have
commenced TO plan fourth insurrec-
ton. and that Is an instruction which

but by rational. constant and untiring
efforts toward the enlightenment and
education OF the masses and TO bring
about this last instruction Of moral
and mental power"
stephen Barszczewsk editor OF
Zgoda. said. There is a secret Polish
league which Is organized for the pur-
pose OF creating and nurturing a pa

youth and TO encourage love for Poland

"A high authority agreed yesterday
with the opinion expressed in these coll
umns that two-thirds or three fourths
OF Gen. Whites force will be available
for active operations any time within

I'VE cannot see how an advance

Gen. Buffers invading the Transvaal, a
practical difficulty exists. Our lnforma-
tion Is that his transport Is utterly in

by fighting along the railway.
I'VE look for one fight about Eleters

commands OF Free Staters for DTak-

and the hunter slipped along the snow
crust and made him an easy prey.
There's another hunter who hunts to
kill, who makes many man his victim
because OF folly like that Of the buffalo
in Andersens fable. It's little thing
to have that uneasy feeling in the s,oni-
ach after eating. Sour risings and belch-
ing are also reckoned little things. Yet
these little things are among the minor
marks OF a disordered condition OF the
stomach and organs Of nutrition and
digestion. OF themselves they may not
kill, but'if despised they may open
pathway to some deadly disease.
Don't neglect the first symptoms OF

A BAD BOAT COMPANION.

Capt. F. Dominick of a fishing smack
had a fierce fight with an American whip
sting ray, or devil fish near the Charles
ton l~ightship, the other afternoon. So far
as the local fishermen are able to say this
is the first fish of the kind ever seen
around the waters Of Charleston, and be-
ing unknown to Dominick. he was nat
urally in a fighting shape before the
sea monster was finally killed. The raw
had a wirelike tail five feet long, and
when this Went slashing through the air
and descended with mighty force on the
back of the captain he was more alramed
than he cared to be inc it was any mans
game until the tail was finally cut off
with a knife.
Capt. Dominick said he was fishing in
quiet waters and his lines We're hanging
loosely i'm his bat. Suddenly there
was a vicious pull at the line and the
whip stinger, Weighing 1875 pounds, came
to the surface. The fish fought to get
away, and some of his flint teeth were
broker in the scramble. The tail began
whipping the air as soon as it came from
the water, and Capt. Dominick had to
throw his hands to his face to keep from
having it laceratad. Fortunately, a big
knife was lying open in the boat, and
with one cut the tail was severed. This
somewhat subdued the fish, and in a
short time Capt. Dominick had it under
control.
The captain says he had never seen a
living specimen Of the whip sting ray be-
fore, and he was not prepared for the
onslaught from the monsters tail.

the riscatorial tribe are not uncommon,
but they are rare In the waters here
