Baron Fava, the retiring ambassador
Is man of remarkable diplomatic eX-
perience, his service in behalf of his coun-
try covering some of tue most exciting
periods in the Italian history He is about
slXty-ive years of age, and began his
diplomatic career as secretary of Iega-
ton at Triest for the kingdom of Naples
He subsequently took a prominent part
in a successful effort to federate the ltal-
ian states, and re-entering the diplomatic
service under the famous CalVour min
lstry he became first secretary at Berne
Ihence, in turn, he went to The Hague,
to Constantfnople, to Roumania and final
~ to Buenos Ayres, where he was min
lister, just as his successor is today
DdioH ava came TO washington In 1881
so he has seen twenty years cont inuous
service at the American capital In 1893

act as promptly as the British govern
ment IN the matter OF raising it's minister

Orleans which caused a serious strain
upon the relations between the United
states and Italy, and incidentally led
TO the recall of Baron Fava by his gov
eminent for considerable time. Since
that event others Of like character have
occurred, but they have all been disposed
OF satisfactorily, in large part, owing to
the tact of the ambassador.

WHAT THE ICONS" THINK.
Differences Between Two Roads as
Experienced by Them.


In connection with the coming conven-
ton of the Order of Railroad Conductors,
the difference in the degree of courtesy
which different roads are capable OF eX-
teIAng is being freely discussed. The
cons after their work is over, con
templates sending four car loads of dele
gates across the country to Seattle, from
which place they will dispense to the
South for their respective destinations.
The story goes that the Northern Pacific
management was approached and that eX-
ceedingly frigid reception was accorded.
Then the Great Northern was seen, and
a most cheerful acceptance of the pro-
gramme greeted the committee. Accord
ing to a railroad man, who is not con-
nected with either road this will mean
four car loads of conductors, who will
go south from Seattle with the fixed I'M
preston that the Great Northern is the
only real road west, and their influence
in disseminating this idea is much more
than can be measured in a few words.
At any rate, the cons" will go west va
the Great Northern.

Struck by Lightning.
(Kinston Free Press.)


Mr.. w. l.. Kennedy's home at Falling
Greek was damaged several thousand
dollars by lightning Sunday night.
Mr.. Kennedy was here yesterday after
noon and stated that he was unable to
say Just what the damage was, but it
would amount to several thousand dol
lars.
He and Mrs. Kennedy were at the sup
per table when it occurred. He said it
seemed to him as if some one had fired a
pistol in his face, that the report was
very sharp and the flash binding.
1t seemed to Mrs. Kennedy as If a
great ball of fire was dropping from the
ceiling to the floor. She was severely
shocked, her hair scorched and comb in
her hair was twisted all out of shape.
The lightning struck two trees at the
northwest corner of his house, and en-
tered the dwelling at that corner, rum
ming through seven of his best rooms.
1t took course around the picture
moulding in the rooms, tearing out the
laths and the plastering, knocking down
pictures and SCATTERING a $3.50 mirror.
The wall paper in each room was scorch
ed and torn. The bolt took diagonal
course through the building going out at
the southeast end.
Mr.. Kennedy is insured against loss by
lightning. 1t was almost miracle that
no one was hurt.
