WILL NEVER SUBMIT.
Secession Will Not Be Permitted, Says
 Colombian official.

i WASHIA~. 4.y., .,o,. -o. - X dis patch from Colon says: The Royal Mail steamer 0rinoco has arrived here bringing news of General Torres and the Colombian troops he took from here after the proclamation of the re public of Panama. The soldiers be- haved we'll on the voyage"
 On the arrival of General Torres and his troops at Cartagena the news of events on the isthmus quickly spread and caused much excitement. General Torres and his officers were threatened with arrest as traitors, but the threat was not put into effect. The populace. greatly excited, soon crowded the streets, crying, Down with the Amer icansl'' United States Consul Inger- soll, fearing violence, remained shut up in the consulate.
 The excitement at Barranquilla in creased with the spreading of the news of the secession of the isthmus, which was supplemented by exaggerated ac- counts of the alleged part played by the United States therein.
 Panama's declaration of independ- ences was read from newspaper. by the prefect to a crowd assembled in the plaza and was greeted by furious out cries and shouts of Death to the Pan- amanians!1 and Death to the Ameri- cans!''
 The prefect followed the reading by a speech in which he declared that the Colombian government would never permit the secession of the isthmus and would win back the lost territory at any cost. The crowd in the plaza in- dulged in many extravagant threats impossible of execution.
 United States Vice Consul Lovelace was sitting on balcony of his house at Barranquilla when several stones were thrown at him. He retired indoors and was not further molested by the Colom- bians. ;
 Fears are entertained for the safety of Americans in Colombia and of the possibility of the anger of the populace being vented against foreigners gener- ally The authorities at Savanilla have mounted two obsolete guns covering the wharf.
 Porfirio Melendez. the new civil and military governor of Colon has ex- PACSSS0 AAS AulA EGdIILatiOA Ol WHUt Panama owes to the United States, calling that country .'the new repub- He's powerful and generous godmoth- er." General Melendex said:
 Panama will be able to raise 5000 or 5000 troops, partly armed. in case the necessity arises to resist Colom- bian attack, but do not believe that any such necessity will ever arise"
 It is apparent that United States war ships will not permit any move ment by sea of armed forces. Govern or Melendez tried to send twenty-five armed men to Porto Bello, but they were stopped by the United States gunboat Nashville and compelled to return. A schooner loaded with Pan amanian troops was sent to Bocas del Toro. but they went unarmed.

One cat was blown through window, across the roof of a canal boat moored to a pier 100 feet away, and was drowned in the river.

 From Man He Befriended.
 Joseph Aubin, hotel keeper of Mo Gregor, near Windsor, Ont, recently realized the benefits of casting bread on the waters when he received draft fcss $5O,0oo from his half brother. Jacques Caza of Chile, South America, says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
 The present is sequel to trial which occurred in Montreal number of years ago when Caza was charged with murder. He had no money to fight his case and was in despair until young Aubin came forward with bis savings and engaged counsel and look. ed up evidence for his half brother.
 Caza was acquitted and went to Chile. The next heard of him was in the shape of $3,o0O check that he sent to Aubin to repay the, money spent on the trial. He afterward wrote that he would make Aubin rich and evidently means to keen his word

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 18.--Bullets flew thick and fast in an encounter be tween the students of William and Mary college at Williamsburg and the boys of that place. The students fired steady volleys from behind fences and from the windows of their rooms, while the town boys, not so we'll armed, returned the fusillade with few vol leys. All the casualties were on the side of the town boys, one of whom was wounded in the jaw and another in the head. The police authorities are now guarding the college buildings.

Surveyors at Work This Morning Pre-
 pairing for New Building.

pairing for New Building.
 A handsome building will soon rise fro mthe ashes of the old Scovil from the ashes of the old Scovill having begun work on the plans this morning. The property came into the possession of Truman s. Lewis, son of the late E. c. Lewis, last week and he immediately began preparations for the erection of a fine building. The place was surveyed this morning and the work of removing the debris which has accumulated there since the de- struct1on of the Scovill house q year ago last February will begin as soon as possible.
 The new building will be three stor- les on West Main street and two on Harrison avenue The two upper floors on West Main street will be used as offices and the lower, for business purposes. The first and second floors are already rented, though It is not ex- pected the building will be ready for q year The premises fronting on Harrison avenue will be used for garage, or automobile station. There is such a concern now on Center street, conducted by MT Towle. but on linn ited scale owing to lack of proper ac- commodatlons. This is q new busi- ness and will bring the city up to date in that respect. There are four such stations in Hartford and several In Bridgeport and New Haven. A ga rage conducted properly will mean to the city a great deal. It win make it a center for automobilists and thus bring people of wealth to the city. Business people are now wondering why they did not see such possibilities in the old Scovill house site and they say that Mir Lewis is showing the fine business enterprise and acumen that distinguished his late father

in the section in which she lives and turns to the south for most of the data she needs. In poetry and in fiction, it is fhe south that furnishes the song and the romance. Every day we are appre- ciating more deeply southern history. and its preservation and we may look to the women of the south to accomplish this peculiar and special work. Among those whose talents seem to apply peculiarly to preserving southern history, partic- ularly the events of the war between the states. is Mrs. Josie Frazee Capple- man of Mississippi.
 Mrs. Cappeman is one of the most rep resentative women in the south. She is a member of the Daughters Of the Amer ican Revolution, and is a Colonial Dame. Her ancestry reaches back in direct line to the court of Philip II of Spain. Mrs. Cappleman has written several charming roniances and her poems have been pro- nounced gems in sentiment and compost tion.
 Her papers contributed to the Missis- sippi Historical Society are considered of great value and as poet historian and novelist she ranks among the most ac- complished women writers in this section of the south.
