The Electric Eel's Victim.

Chambers's Journal.
 At the Geological Gardens a large electric eel was swimming in its tank with more activity than usual, when a big cockroach fell into the water, and in it's efforts to get out made dis turbance of the surface, which attract ed the attention of the eel. The eel turned round. swam past it, discharg- ed its battery at about eight inches off. and the cockroach instantly stop ped stone dead. It did not even move it's antennae after. The eel then pro- ceeded to swallow its victim, and the narrator goes on to point out the curi- ous circumstance that the fish, which weighed about twelve pounds. should find it worth while to fire its heavy artillery at a creature an inch and a half long. when it could easily have swallowed 1t sans facon.

ever be in any other political relation, condition or confederation.
 The true answer of the Cuban Con- stitutional Convention to the Platt amendment. if the delegates have the moral courage to make 1t, is the de- mand of the Cuban people to be ad- mitted into the American Union as State, upon a Constitution prepared by that body, adapted to that result and submitted for ratification to the vote of the people. as was done in Cal ifornia.
 While delay is not dangerous for that solution of existing questions will be ultimately adopted even if Cuba shall accept the Platt amendmenD it would be unwise, unprofitable and wrong to delay that suspicious event when no real advantage could be gain ed by delay.
 An event of this character would bring such happiness to mankind and such honor to our free, republican, gov ernment as has not been equalled since the establishment of the government of the United States under the Con- stitution.

HAD A WHITE BOY
And lie Had Evidently Been
Compelled to Keep His
Face Covered With a
Handkerchief.

Two rough, dark-skinned sons of
sunny Italy accompanied by a little
boy not more than seven years of age,
whose skin was as white as the fairest
Caucasian, attracted considerable at
teution at the S. P. depot this morn
ing.
The Italians had probably come in on
the T. & P. last night and were wait
ing for the west bound S. p. to leave.
The boys face was entirely covered
with white handkerchief and his
right hand was bound up in a red
knees in an attitude Of prayer be-
fore the rougher, older of the two
men and this aroused the curiosity of
Officer Rayner. He went over and
asked the man what was the matter
with the boy and he said he was sick.
For the time being the officer drop
ped the matter until Herald man
came and with him he went in the car.
where the interesting trio had gone and
asked again what was the matter with
lhc UOy- ne ItdlidH
"Sick." The omcer pulled the hand
kerchief from the boys face and re-
vealed a face as fair and pretty as any
American woman's baby and it bore
no evidences of a handkerchief being
necessary to protect it.
The boy squirmed and muttered and
pulled the handkerchief back over his
face 1t is the opinion of the officer
that something is not exactly right
about the boy being in charge of the
italians as he did not look in the least
like one of their own kin, but for fear
of causing trouble for the railroad he
would not detain them. He thinks that
it is possible that the boy has been
taught by threats to object to the
handkerchief being removed.
The little boy was dressed in a cost
ly suit of chinchila, in striking con-
trast with the rough, ragged apparel
of the men, II there is nothing wrong
about the case, there is at least ample
cause for thinking there is some prob
ability of it being a kidnapping case,
and Officer Rayner said he intended to
telegraph to some county or city Of
ficers up the line and have the matter

A FIRE IN DES MONIES CAUSES
HALF A MILLION DOLLARS
DAMAGE TO STORES.

DES MONIES, Jan. 29.-Fire this
morning destroyed the building occu-
pied by Frankel Brothers department
store. corner Sixth and Walnut streets,
entailing a loss of upwards of half a
million dollars.
Five minutes after the fire was dis
covered the whole building was in
flames, and beyond the control of the
fire department.
Every man IN the department was
called to the scene but the structure
was doomed before their arrival. The
department then bent its efforts to
saving adjoining structures.
Three hours after the fire started on
ly one wall of the Frankel building was
left standing.
With the greatest effort the building
of the Des Moines National bank, the
Seeley department store, and Utica
clothing store was saved from the
flames without serious damage. The
fire, blown by biting gale, ignited the
building of the First National bank
across the street, but after a hard fight
that structure was saved with only
nominal loss.
Twelve firms suffered, including the
telephone company, and street rail-
way, whose wires were destroyed.
Street car traffic and the operation of
factories dependent on the company for
power have suspended as a result.
A dozen firemen were caught by
falling timbers and several were badly
hurt

A SENSATIONAL CHARGE MADE
AGAINST THE NEW KING BY
A GERMAN NEWSPAPER.

BERLIN. Jan. ga socialist organ
, this morning publishes a remarkable
article which creates sensation in
official circles.
1t is to the effect that England S
new king owes the emperor of Ger
many twenty-five million marks, and
that William went to England not only
to pay his respects to Victoria but to
demand the liquidation of this private
debt.
The paper states that the money was
lent to the Prince of Wales by Emper-
or Frederick to pay UP the princes pri-
vate obligation, and has never been re-
turned.
This afternoon in official circles the
statement of the socialistic organ is
declared to be false.
