BLOCKADE IS RAISED

 From Venezuelan Ports.
GREAT REJOICING AMONG ALL CLASSES
Merchant. Vessels at Once Take Ad- vantage of Freedom-The GOvern- ment Takes Immediate Steps to
 Crush the Revolution.


 LA GUAYRA, Venezuela, Feb. 16.-- The blockade has been officially raised. The commander of the British cruiser Tribune, the only warship here, sent an officer ashore with the announce ment, and the Tribune left for Trini- dad.
 There is great rejoicing among ell classes here at the end of the Venezue- Ian blockade. Many sailing vessels have been lying in this port with car goes for Venezuelan ports. They are leaving today. A number of steamers are loading for the same destinations. A great amount of coffee is awaiting transportation from Venezuela to the United States. No one is apparently more glad at the raising of the block ade than those on board the blockading squadron.
 The news received from all the Ven- ezuelan ports, except Coro and Higue- rote, is that the foreign warships have sailed away. The government immedi- ately on receiving the news that the blockade had been raised took mili- tary measures and sent troops in all directions to crush the revolution with out giving the rebels a moment res pite.

We NOTICED one very pleasant lea
tune of Monday evenings entertain
ment, and that was that nearly every
woman in the audience removed her
hat before the exercises began. a
very few, here and there, were nervy
enough TO keep their hats on, to the
annoyance of those who sat behind
them. This very pleasant feature of
lblic courtesy, al public meetings,
cannot be too highly commended.
The time was-aud not very far off.
either when women. as IA rule, sat
through every public performance
with their heads covered, no matter
how detrimental it was TO the people
behind them. Such conduct finally
bred so strong IA public sentiment
that IA state law WIS enacted. which
prohibited the wearing of hats by
women in places of public entertain
ment. 1t is needless 10 say that the
almost unanimous custom of remov
ing feminine headgear, which pre-.
walls at this time, is brought about
by public sentiment, and not because
of this law, for there are very few

Shall We Gossip.

AN EDITOR has to use much more
cart about excluding matter from his
columns than any other part of the
management of his paper. We are
often urged to print questionable
matter, articles that would not only
reflect on certain individuals. but on
the character Of the town "a well.
Such matter is often of no public in
terest-mere gossip, you might say.
At times it concerns the conduct of
prominent men, the publication OF
which would be warranted, if it would
work "A reform III the conduct of those
men, or would forward the interests
of the town, but we realize that il
would do neither, but would place
the town at II disadvantage.
If we understand the province of a
country paper, such AS The sun pro.
fesses to be, ii is to publish only such
matter as will advance the interests
of the town aud country; to chronicle
its needs, its advantages, its prog
ress-uot its faults and short-com-
ings: the good deeds and commend
able points of its people that are
worthy OF mention not their lack of
merit: their virtues not their vices.
When it comes to the conduct of
its city officials, either good or bad,
that is another matter, but even there
it is often wise o%refrain from making
public what only concerns the town,
provided that the people OF the town
are perfectly familiar with it, and
place the seal of their dlsapproval
upon it. The outside world is not
concerned with our little family af-
fairs, any more than the whole PEG
pie of the town are concerned about
the troubles that arise in one Of the
families living within its environs.
To publish what would be of NO
benefit, but rather work harm would
be to make of the country paper II
vehicle for gossip, and we all know
that the very worst feature of any
community is the constant stream OF
gossip that is going on, from house
to house, %fomenting petty strife and
breeding trouble where peace ought
to reign.

TO learn to appear earlier at AN enter

impossible to proceed with the even

certainly very bad manners to be late
