WILLEMSTAD, Island of Curacao,
Nov. 10.-Advices received here from
Capacho Viejo, dated Nov. 5, say that
the report from President Castro to his
brother, Celestino Castro, at San Cristo-
bal, to the effect that the United States
government insists upon mediating be-
tween Venezuela and Colombia" caused
the greatest excitement among the
troops on the frontier. Gen. Urite-
Tribe and Gen. Modesto Castro imme-
diately set out for San Cristobal to OBJ
tain details. 1t seems that Gen. Tribe
Tribe refused to believe the report, de-
claring that he had no fears as to the
future of the liberal cause, because
President Castro had given him cast
iron pledge not to forsake him.
Should President Castro prove untrue
to the liberal cause exclaimed Gen.
Tribe Uribe, 1.-The result would be his
ruin. The war will enter Colombia be-
fore Christmas"
There is considerable feeling against
the Castro family among the Colombian
liberals and along the frontier in con
sequence of a widespread rumor that
Celestino Castro, whip is communicating
chief at San CristobaI, has been private
~ selling cattle to the enemy, the cattle
being whisked across the frontier by
means of alleged raids of Colombian
conservatives. During one of these
raids dozen soldiers were killed on
both sides. 1t Is said that the cattla
change hands at a preararnged price of
$50 per head. The blood thus spilled is
charged directly to Celestino Castro by
the indignant people of Tachira.

PASSING OF GALLANTRY.
Women Who Are Breadwinners Do
Not ComnIain.

Not Complain.
''Why has the gallantry once shown by
men to women so greatly declined?" was
recently asked by one well known man
of another, who made this answer: am
satisfied that the main cause of the fall
ing off of the old-time chivalrous treat
ment of women is due to her having en-
tered into active competition with men in
many lines of business and sundry pro-
LESSONS. Woman as a bread winner can
never evoke that tender consideration
and courteous attention that were hers in
the olden days, when she did not go
forth into the busy world and hustle for
a living.
From the womens point of view there
is quite as much gallantry as there ever
was, and it is of a much more desirable
quality. They themselves would be the
first to see and resent decline in this
respect, but those of the present genera
ton have a proud and happy conscious
ness that never in all the past ages did
women possess in so large a degree the
respect and admiration and helpfulness
of men, It is true that men no longer
indulge in the old-time, nauseating COM
pliments-the ladies, God bless them,
their bright eyes, their sweet smiles, re-
deem us from savagery and prevent us
from dropping to the level Of brutes-and
all that sort of stuff. The women of to-
day would laugh in their faces and say:
'Oh, run along and be brutes. if this Is
all that saves YOU"
The "gallantry'' of the present does not
consist, as it did in the past, in saying
to women: Dear little delicate creatures,
don't bother your heads about getting an
education; we like you better without it;
we are your natural protectors; we will
take all your property because it would
be such a burden for you; We will as
sumo the full guardianship of the chill
dren and save you the responsibility; we
will not let you work for wages, because
that would not be chivalrous, but il you
insist on doing it we will collect and
spend them In order to spare you the
trouble. Don't slide down from that
