A GENEROUS sPANIARD.
Helped Capture American Soldiers
and Refused the Return Of
His Money.

During the period of his imprison.
ment by the Filipinos, Lieut.. Gilmore
and his men were at one time thrown
into an old barracks with party OF
Spanish prisoners, including major
general. The latter, says Washing
ton correspondent of the Chicago Rec
crd, in some way obtained money.
which he divided among his men, and
with great generosity sent so Mexican
dollars to Lieut.. Gilmore, asking him
to accept them with his compliments.
Gilmore made the condition that it
should be considered a loan, to which
the Spanish general graciously as
scented, and he used the money to buy
shoes and clothing for his men, some.
thing they sadly needed, for they were
almost naked.
After his rescue Gilmore learned that
the Spanish general, who had also es'
capped from the Filipinos, was in the
CITY of Manila, and offered him so sill
yer dollars in repayment of the loan.
The general was quite indignant and
refused to accept it, When Gilmore re-
minded him of the agreement he
smiled and said that he had consented
to it only because he feared the Amer
leans would not accept the money 9th
erwise. Gilmore told the story among
the other naval officers at Manila, who
passed around a paper and collected q
handsome sum. which was expended in
the purchase of the most appropriate
and expensive piece Of silver that coulo
be found in Manila. 1t was engraved
with brief statement of the facts ane
presented to the Spanish general will
appropriate ceremonies as token o
gratitude and admiration from thu
navy of the United States. Then he wa!
invited to a reception upon the flag
ship, where every officer in the flee
who could be spared welcomed hin
and thanked him in person for hi
kindness to Gilmore and his men.

Trouble over Wells in India.

The question Of wells in India is COM
plicatedby the coeXistence in each COM
munity of two castes-the purer Hindus
and Gonds on the one hand. the weav.
ers on the other. No weaver, says
Cornhill. may draw from the well OF
the Hindus lest it be defiled; nor will
the Hindu drink from the hands or
the we'll of weaver Thus it becomes
necessary either to dig two wells or
to depute certain number Of the
Hindu element to give water to their
less exalted fellow villagers.

WILL MEET JULY 4TH
Democratic Convention to Be
Held in Kansas City-The
Platform Outlined.

Washington, Feb. 22.-The
Democratic National Committee
met today at the Raleigh Hotel
and listened To the speeches of
delegations from various cities
that were urging the claims of
their respective places. The
committee decided to hold the
convention in Kansas City, July
4th.
The platform for 1900 was out
lined by members Of the COM
mittee as anti-expausion, anti
trust, anti-treaty, anti-England,
free silver. While the silver
plank Of the Chicago platform
was considered certain of adop-
ton, it was not expected to iplay
the leading part in the campaign
except in the silver States. Great
stress was laid by speakers be-
fore the committee, and by 9TH
ers in halls and loboies, on the
necessity of capturing the Ger
man vote, and it was felt that
the less said about silver in this
connection the better. The COM
mittee then took up the matter
of selecting the convention city,
! with the result as stated.

PINE LUMBER COMBINE.
Plans for Merger of Chief South
ern Companies are Progress
ing Rapidly.

A scheme for the combination
of the chief lumber companies do
ing business in the South is we'll
under way and may be CONSUME
mated within the next sixty days,
says the Baltimore Herald.
The plans have reached a point
where options or the plants of 20
companies have been secured, and
preparations for underwriting the
securities of the new organization
have been begun. Nj. Charles r.
Flint, of New York, who has
probably promoted more big
schemes than any other one man
in the country, is interested in the
deal in association with prominent
New York banking houses.
The proposed capitalization of
the new company IS $29, 600, coo.
The companies which it is expected
will be absorbed own over 4,OOO,-
600, 900 feet of standing timber,
have a sawmill capacity of L.
100000 feet a day, and contnol
600 miles of railroad,
