BULLrFIGHTING IN MEXICO.

There is no subject of greater i'm portance and interest than the pros- pects for the coming bull-fghting sea- son.
 Empresario Ramon Lopez has. ac- cording to a telegram, landed at La Coruna, Spain, and has initiated nego- tiations with celebrities of the bull ring for the Mexican tour.
 It is understood that the combination on which Lopez has set his heart is to present this coming season to the Mexican public Antonia Reverte Jim inez, Jose Gonzalez. "Maschiquitoe and "Chico de Ia Blusa.''
 Seeing that Ramon has always been considered man of sound judgment it is to be doubted whether he will contract Reverte. It is well known that Reyerte suffered severe horning some wears since and has never been himself since.
 Machequito on the other. hand. is celebrity, though as vet onIv 20 years nf age. He is native of Cordoba. Before entertaining any proposition to come to Mexico. he insists on de- Dosit of 15000 pesetas being made in the bank of Spain to his credit. "Chi- % de Ia Blusa" is as yet only a nov Hero. If he comes he will probably graduate here to full honors.
 Such are the most important facts of the present taurine situation Mex ican Herald

TOM JoHNsoN's AMBITION.

Mayor Johnson will ask the demo- nomination in 1904. The mayor yes- terday quietly informed a friend from Colorado that he would tour that state and probably a few of the other Wes- tern states, making a few platform talks.
 The Johnson boom for the presiden- tial nomination was given increased momentum yesterday afternoon when former populist ex-congressman, Lafe Pence of Denver, arrived in the city for few days visit. He was not in the city five minutes till he started in search of Mayor Johnson. Mir Pence and Mayor Johnson were chums in the Fifty-third congress. They chatted for an hour in the may or's office at the city hall over-the out look for the mayors nomination for the presidency.
 s.We will have Colorado lined up sol idly for you, too, for the national con vention,'' said Pence. .sIt will be only necessary for you to go out there and make few speeches and make your self known. This win bring you before the people of the state. The people will do the rest when the proper time arrives.'
 '"Thank you," said tn mayor, ssbut you are a little too late with your in vitation. I have already been invited to go to Colorado. I accepted the in vitations, and unless something arises to prevent I will fulfill my engage ments. s."-Chicago Tribune.

SPELL THE TRUTH"

The safe, the right, the proper, the lexpedient policy with regard to the mil F Iitary situation in the Philippines is summarized in these three words :: Tell the truth. There is no warrant,
 no occasion, for suppressing any of the facts relating to the campaign in the Philippines. It is, moreover, utterly impossible to carry out successfully policy of concealment, lodging and suppression. The United States is democracy, not a benevolent despotism. The people decide all political questions and they will eventually have to decide the Philippine question The war is conducted in their name and by their authority.
 Secretary Root, Governor Taft, Gen. erals Chaffee, MacArthur and Wheel CT and many other witnesses assure the American people that the war has been carried on in a civilized and humane way, and that the instances of brutali- ty and lawlessness have been sporadic and occasional. This being the case, the party responsible for the conduct of the campaign has nothing to con ceal The president has declared that nothing will be held to justify torture or inhumanity, and that every officer or private who has been guilty of bru- tality will be called to account. The army as whole is not on trial, and there is no reason why the truth, the whole truth, should not be told as to the few weak and brutal men"-to use Governor Taft's expression-Who have committed revolting acts
 The light should be turned on. A sub committee might have been sent to the Philippines to continue the investi- gation, and if the anti-imperialists should send a body of earnest, honest trustworthy men to the archipelago to institute an independent inquiry the great majority of the people would vel come their aid and cooperation. Let us know the truth about the situation the progress achieved, the sentiments of the natives, the success of civil gov ernment, the strength of the insurrec- tion, the methods of the army of pacih- cation. Knowledge is essential to jus tice, to right settlement of the great est problem before the American peo- pie. If the present policy is wise and necessary the truth will convince the people of the fact There is nothing in the developments to cause confusion or panic.-New Haven Resister.

ENTERPRIsB OF CLUB WOMEN.

This month Tennessee club women inaugurate an extraordinary enterprise among the isolated and ignorant moun- taineers of the state. It is really the beginning of a social settlement along novel lines, the spot selected being Walkers valley, where, besides Polygamistic Walker and his two wives, live thirty families whose sole inheritance is unspeakable shiftless- ness Only one member of the whole colony, in fact, is able to read.
 The regeneration of this peculiarly retarded people is to be undertaken by the Tennessee Federation of Wo- mems clubs, which has at it's head Mrs Charles A. Perkins of Knoxville. Through the social settlement commit tee logs and nails were secured from one source, pictures and furniture from others, so that a cabin of two rooms is now in readiness and, with a com potent teacher. these neglected natives are to have an opportunity to "larr." to use the vernacular of the neighbor hood.
 The colossal ignorance of the Tennes- see mountaineer. who is a moonshiner by training. if not instinct, who raises a little corn to grind by hand in a clOHC Hliil. WUuO HIS SSBOuSe WOdfCS d f'kiver" at the loom. furnishes a rich field for the courageous club women. Somewhat of the state of things may be gleaned from the remark of a little Walker valley girl who. displaying 8 TOW of six books. one of the travelling libraries sent out by the federation, proudly said to visitor. ssReckon has 'bout one of every kind that's made" Walkers valley. moreover. is twenty six miles from railroad and seven miles from Tuckaleechee Cove, which. 1t may be mentioned, is one of the Jumping-off places in the Tennessee mountains.
 So these are the people who are to be taught the rudiments at this social settlement. It is a part of the plan that old and young alike shall be in- structed in reading and writing. the women shown how to sew, cook and keep house-in short how to i've while the cabin. cheap1y but tastefullv aDpointed, is intended to serve as an object lesson to those inmates of un- kempt homes.
 Indeed there is no doubt that this unique work will develop as success fully in Tennessee, backed as it is by the best women. as it has nthe last three years in Kentucky nnder the au spices of, the Kentucky Federation of Women's clubs.-Pilgrim.

VALUABLE PAINTINGS FOUND.

There are two paintings at St Mary's seminary, the leading Catholic institution in this city, which connois- seurs declare to be the work of Ru- bens. They were willed to the sem mary some years ago by $. Teakle Wallis, Baltimore's foremost lawyer, but no reference was then made to the painter. The discovery was made only recently.
 Investigation was then begun, and the voluminous work on Rubens Dy Max Rooses, which was published in 1892, was consulted. Rooses gives a description and history of each paint ing. He states that the paintings of SS. Peter and Paul disappeared about 1S4O, and their whereabouts are not now known. He, however, gives a description of the two pictures, and the descriptions agree in many respects with the pictures in Baltimore.
 When the pictures were delivered at the seminary there was heavy coat of varnish over the canvases which half obscured their beauty. A few weeks ago 1T. Weidenbach was en- gagged to re-touch some paintings It was Wnll0 ouSdSeu III L1lo Holh eAA11' the artist happened to see the picture of St Peter, and he promptly pro nounced it a Rubens. He asked per- mission to remove the varnish, which he did in the open air before number of the priests and students. They were all amazed to see the great trans formation in the painting and it's won derful beauty. The picture of St Paul was given similar treatment, and since then the two paintings have been much admired.-Baltimore Dispatch.
