served strength says a London dis
patch to the Tribune during the lnper-

OF the British government to commit
Canada to O policy of military arma-

yielded TO he temptation OF popularity
in England. He has not antagonized
Colonial Secretary Chamberlain on any

a sagacious policy. which Is likely to

TWO CONSULS
EXCHANGED
Why Rublee and Bragg
Take Each Others
Posts.

Hon. w. A. Rublee, former consul
general at Hongkong, who passed
through Honolulu yesterday on the
Doric enroute TO the Coast, will arrive
at his new post, Havana, Cuba, long
before his successor, General Edward
S. Bragg, starts on his long journey to
the Orient. General Bragg, whose
transfer as consul-general at Havana
is to like position at Hongkong, will
leave San Francisco for China about
January l, next
At Washington he declined to dis
cuss his now famous remark about the
Cuban people, but the story leaked out,
following the publication of General
Bragg's letter to his wife, that friends
OF the warrior assert caused his de-
parture from Havana.
1t is related that the Cuban author
tiles at first declined to pay any atten-
ton to ''the Bragg incident" But a
small coterie of Americans in Havana,
who manifested antagonism toward
General Bragg from the time he enter
ed the Cuban capital, began move
ment which had for its purpose, first
the retirement of General Bragg an9
the appointment of Mr.. F, Steinhart as
his successor Steinhart formerly lived
in Chicago. He was for years a clerk
in the War Department and is now
chief clerk at army headquarters in
Havana.
When it looked as if neither gov
eminent intended to take any action
in the matter, Steinhart and his friends
inaugurated a movement to excite en-
nifty in official quarters against the
American consul-general. One of the
methods was the publication in Ha-
vana newspapers of abusive stories
concerning General Bragg, and nothing
was left undone to make him persona
non grata to the Palma government
This campaign succeeded and finally
there was manifested in official quar-
tiers hostile feeling. which convinced
| the General that he would be more use
full to his government in some other
field.
1t cannot be learned definitely that
President Palma made any representa-
| tions to the State Department on the
subject; neither was it ascertained
| whether the initiative was taken by
Secretary Hay or whether the transfer
was suggested by General Bragg.
! 1t was reported at Washington thai
| the Cuban government asked for the
appointment of Steinhart. This was
denied at the State Department. For.
eign- governments have the privilege OF
Directing to the appointment of dip
| lomatic or consular agents distaste.
| full to them, but no suggestions are
made or entertained as to who shall
be appointed. Such an act would be
regarded by this government as an
impertinence.

INVISIBLE
WRITINGS
Odd Theme of Mrs.
Mabel Wing Castle
at Y. W. c. A.

Invisible Writings was the novel
theme upon which Mrs. Mabel Wing
Castle dwelt yesterday afternoon be-
fore an audience gathered in the Y.
w. c. a. gymnasium. Mrs. Castle
spoke at the opening of her interesting
talk of the oddly of the title and the
speculation probably INDUCED in by
the uninitiated as to its meaning She
said it did not have any relation to psy-
Geological research, or modern writings
upon the wall, or the relationship of
the living with the spirits of the dead,
bat referred to the unseen interlinea-
lions which do not appear in the finish
ed work of authors. To her there was
a world of thought and matter express
ed in writings beyond that which ap-
peared in the finished sentence, para
graph, and page.
She likened the invisible writings te
the building of house. To thoSs who
saw only the completed dwelling, there
was little to show the wQyG contained
in the preparation Of the plans and the
thought put into Shem, or of the mass
of material which had to be employed
in its erection, the rough portions which
f1p&iiy appear finished, or the scaffold-
,ring raised around the house during its
construction. When all these adjuncts
We're removed there was left only. the
beautiful workmanship to appeal to the
eye and to the comfort of the inmates.
In the making of a gown there was also
an expression of invisible writing which
the lecturer said all women would cas-
lily understand.
Mrs. Castle indicated the extent to
which authors generally go to write a
book. There was first the employment
of the mental faculties in the forma-
ton of the plot; then came the arrange
ment of the various developments, lead
ing to the climax and the vanishing
point: then the subdivisions to obtain
continuity and balance; then the
thought as to whether plain or figura-
tive language should be employed, and
the choice of words; the question OF
whether the sentences should be long
or short, and also the length of para
graphs. This was the secret of the
results to be obtained by each author,
She referred to the works of De Maui
PEASANT, Flobert, Cardinal Newman
anG others, in which the intention of
the author was shown, through the me-
dunn of the invisible writing.
