 Presently he poured out some wine and lifted his glass. T will give you a toast, gentlemen" he said. Heres long life to the president of Nicaragua and confusion to all traitorsl' As he spoke the words he threw the glass against the window, where it smashed into pieces with loud crash. Instantly the door opened and thirty or forty sol- diers who had been waiting outside for the signal rushed it. All the plotters were arrested, but the president dealt leniently with them. Some were im- prisoned and others were deported from the country. This fondness for playing upon the fears of men is one of the marked traits of Zelaya's character When he is in want of funds to suppress a revolution he assesses the rich men of Managua, and calls upon them to make loans for the good of the common wealth.
 A wealthy merchant receives an invi- tation to dine with the president. Of course he dare not refuse. Zelaya treats him with the greatest courtesy, gives him an excellent dinner and con- graduates him warmly upon the suc- cess of his business enterprises. .sUn- fortunately, business is very bad, your excellency, protests the merchant. "The disturbed state of the country is ruinous to commerce. I am running at loss and eating up my capital" You do injustice to your business talents, my dear friend" replies Zelaya. II am giv- en to understand that last month your turnover was so many thousands of dol lars, which would give you profit of so much" naming the exact figures. The merchant is obliged to acknowl- edge it. Then Zelaya suggests to the merchant that he is no doubt anxious to contribute out of his wealth to the cause of his country, and names what he considers. to be a fitting sum. And the merchant usually pays the assess ment. Most Latin-American dictators are glad enough to abandon their peril ous posts as soon as they have made a fortune on which they can live comfort ably in Paris for the rest of their days. But Zelaya cares more for power than for money. He stays in Nicaragua, year after year, working and plotting necessarily, in the hope that some day he will be able to realize his dream of becoming autocrat of the United States of Central America.-New York Sun.

A CHANGE FOR A HERO.
The Fate of the Last Man on a subna-
 rine Torpedo Boat.

The Fate of the Last Man on Subma-
 rine Torpedo Boat
 Several accidents have happened re- gently to Uncle Sam's submarine torpe- do boats One now being stranded high and dry on the North Carolina coast, it became advisable to settle once for all the much-mooted question as to the possibility of these boats meeting with a mishaps while submerged that would prevent it's rising to the surface. Be- cause of the practical impossibility of egress through the coming tower when 1 it is subjected to an enormous pressure of water, as it would beiat the bottom of the sea, it was thought that all in the boat would be lost in contingency such as has been presented; but exper- iments made with dogs have proved conclusively to naval officers that the members of the crew could be shot out of the torpedo tube without injury-that is, all could with the exception of one. There is no doubt about it. One man would have to stay behind to work the mechanism in order that his fellows might escape, and thus the question arises what would become of the last man? In the opinion Of tlsn submarine boat builders, there can be only one an- swer-the last man would have to sub init to being buried alive.
 It is clear from this that some time an opportunity to display new form of heroism may be presented to a naval man, an opportunity to save his fellows by rising superior to the terrors of a death that would creep upon him with maddening slowness. It would take a long time for the air in the boat to be exhausted, and then would come the | lingering torture of suffocation. The torpedo firing tubes are situated in the bow of the submarine boats and are about eleven feet long At both the inner and outer ends there are water tight doors. When a torpedo is to be fired it is inserted in the tube by open ing the inner door while the outer door is kept closed. The inner door is then shut, the outer Is opened, man turns a lever that releases fifty poundsof com- pressed air, and whiz! out goes the tor pedo. After that the outer door is closed, the water in the tube is drained out, and the tube is ready for another charge.
 The experiment of firing dogs through the tube was made on the submarine boat Shark in Narragansett bay. Two large animals were used for the test. One at time they were placed in the tube and block of wood inserted be- hind them to make the charge fit snugly." The animals and the block
 were then expelled precisely as if they

KNIGHTS oF ST. PATRICK.
Annual Ball This Evening at the Hyper'.

Annual Ball This Evening at the Hyperion. 1 Brilliant Scene-Attractive Programme. 1 Carpenters, decorators and electricians / have transformed the Hyperion theater in
 to a gorgeous ball room, and, in conse-
 quence, that popular playhouse will be a
 most attractive spot this evening when the ? annual ball of the Knights of St. Patrick will open. As usual this event will be one of great interest to all members of the local knights and their lady friends, and there will also be guests from far and near.
 This will bring with it the attendant beau ties of the dressma aker's art, and taken to gether with the elaborate decorations will make the scene one of great attractiveness. The decorations this year are radically different from any of the past. The color scheme is gold, white and green Great streamers of the first two colors almost completely hide the ceiling from view while green has been used to cover the balcony railings. Irish and American flags have also been attractfyeiy displayed, being draped over the balconies and boxes. The stage has, as usual, been built out over the orchestra, and the entire floor covered with i white crash, which makes most striking
 contrast with the other decorations.
 l At the stage end of the dancing space

 brilliant. rays of light, making q scene of 1 dazzling splendor, is suspended shamrock

 A lapse of nearly two hours then in tervened without news except of the most indefinite character, such as mo change" when suddenly at 2 o'clock Representative Dick, of Ohio and MT. Dover came from the senator's apart ments with the shocking announcement that the senator had suffered another severe sinking spell and had failed ut terly to respond to all stimulants ad- ministered to revive him. This news came like a bolt from a clear sky. Medill Mccormick, the senator's son. 1n-laW, was dispatched in haste for more powerful stimulants. These came, but the next report, few minutes later, said that the doctors declared the end to be only a question of perhaps minutes, but, at most, of hours.
 Then within space of three minutes the patient rallied, consciousness re- turned, and by the exertion of his won- derful powers Senator Hanna seemed to pull himself together in what the doc tors and those at the bedside regarded a most miraculous manner. But the fight was by no means won. Although the afternoon relapse had been rallied from, it had left badly weakened frame for future battles. Restoratives were continued and the senator dozed again into a stupor.
 Dr. Carter's description of the sink ing spell, made public shortly after 3 <,a1oolx VITO fo1Jorrc.
 At :30 o'clock a very unexpected sinking spell came on. We at once started to work on the senator. but he failed to respond to the restoratives ap- piled. During this spell the pulse en- tirely disappeared from the wrist. and only slight flutter of the heart could be detected. We kept applying other stimulants and finally got a slight re- sponse. Now he has a pretty good pulse and also respiration. The spell was decidedly worse than the one this morning"
