THE NEW FICHU.

The Easter fichu is a thing which no
woman can afford to be without this
year. Nor can she afford to have only
one of these useful articles. She should
have at least six, and she should see
that they are made of all things, from
dimity to taffeta, and that they should
be in all colors. But she must KEEP
them light in color. for in their deli
cacy lies their dressiness.
The old-fashioned long fichu, with
ends pointed and coming right down
to far below the belt in front, while
at the throat the whole is caught with
a pin, is one of the new things or a
revival. But there are charming little
things in dotted lawn and in embroid-
cred null which are to be draped loose
ly around the shoulders and caught
here and there with little choux OF
narrow ribbon, usually black ribbon.

Proonu Venezuelan Situation.

Prolona Venezuelan Situation.
New York, Jan. 20.-The comment
is sometimes made that the British
government would not have surren-
dered independence of action in the
Venezuelan affair if Mr. Chamberlain
had been fully consulted says a Tri-
bune's London dispatch.
The most creditable explanation of
the Anglo-German coalition is that it
was substitute for the details of the
secret partnership in East Africa,
which the ministers were not prepar-
ed to reveal.
1t seemed safe undertaking for
the Washington government had not
objected to the collection of the Ger
man debts under carefully defined re-
strictions and could not reasonably
discriminate against England Nobody
outside the foreign Office supposed
that the Washington government con-
sldered England's agreement to assist
IN collecting Germany's claims against
Venezuela a friendly act or that the
continuance of wanton acts of provo
cation by the German fleet like the at
tack upon the San Carlos fortification
is consistent with British traditions
of pacific diplomacy
1t Is considered highly probable here
that the German attack upon the fort
ress of San Carlos will not only pro-
long the Venezuelan situation but
make it more acute.
The Daily Chronicle says that what
ever the real facts of the incident may
be, there can be no doubt that the sue
cess of the negotiations are seriously

AMERICANS IN ISLE
OF PINES PROTEST
Say Cuban Government Levys
Unjust Taxation
MAY RESIST SOVEREIGNTY.
They Assert that Cuba Is Levying Op-
pressiVe and Unlawful Taxes In Isle

Island of Cuba.

New York, Jan. 20.-Three hundred
American citizens, property owners
and residents of the Isle of Pines,
says The Herald's Havana correspon-
dent, are preparing to resist forcibly,
II necessary, any further exercise of
sovereignty there by the Cuban gov
ernment
Formal demand has been made up
on Minister Squiers for the protection
due to American citizens on American
territory and Mr.. Squiers is confer
ring with President Palma.
American residents on the island
say they own and occupy more than
two-thirds of the land there. They
assert that the Cuban government is
levying oppressive and unlawful taxes
in the Isle of Pines, and spending the
proceeds in the island of Cuba Ad-
ministration of justice in the Isle of
Pines is said to be unreliable.
The protesting Americans says they
have settled in the island with their
families and mean to stay. Before
investing their money in the purchase
and improvement of real estate they
received official assurances from
Washington that the Isle of Pines was
territory of the United States. They
refuse to pay further taxes to the
Cubans, and ask that steps be imme-
diately taken to establish govern
ment in the island under American au-
thority. The situation is becoming
serious, and an open rupture is likely
to occur if President Palma sends ru-
rale guards to the Isle of Pines to en-
force collection of taxes.

The Democrats claim a majority of
