Castro is certain of, and that is: If thu Germans, or the English. or the Ameril cans would only stop talking ant threatening, and land troops on Vene, zuelan soil. he would settle their hasf for them in a way that would admit ol no further argument!
 President Castro is, above all things fond of pleasure, and wine flows lik( water at his entertainments. An Amer, ican officer on one occasion took hin an important telegram to his mountaiE retreat, and found him at an open aii picnic dancing under the trees with lot of peasants and pretty girls he had with him from Caracas.
 You cannot talk about business" { high officer said. See his ExcellencI is dancing! And not even the sheaf Oi telegrams which the messenger pro' duced had any effect.
 Have you any notion," the Ameri, can said, ironically, when President Castro will stop dancing?"
 Whereupon Castro's right-hand mar threw up his arms with gentle "QuieI sabe, he has been doing it for the last five days" Just then the President approach. The girl hanging on hit arm took the most important telegram and read it, whereupon Castro suddenly stopped the band and made a magnilo' quent speech about shedding his blood for the "sacred soil of Bolivar" whil( the dancers banged their empty beet bottles on the iron tables to show theu approval.
 It S said that the heads of all tho Government departments. as well al the members of Parliament, and even the judge of the bench are merely crea. lures in his hands. An amazing man truly! Knowing nothing of military science he has yet carried everything before him in battle. Though he haG never left his own country, yet he hai got the better of the most skilful dip' Iomats and men of the world, and there is at this hour not the slightest chanct of any rival busting him from his re- markable position as isolent and auto' cratic dictator.

necessary, let loose their marines on Castro's ragtime "machetatos.'
 They told me in La Guayra, the port of Caracas, that this now notorious au- tocrat was originally muleteer and cattle smuggler down in the State or Los Andes But he suddenly appears in Caracas Hall of Congress in patent leather boots, which so amazed Senor Castro himself Ohey wore no boots where he came from) that he was obliged to take them off and put them on the desk in front of him!
 A distance of thirty-six kilometers by rail separates the Venezuelan Capltal from it's port; and on my way to see the President I noticed m ascent, on the tortuous journey, of nearly 4,OoO feet Caracas has an almost perfect climate and a, population of about lzo,- enO was amused to see in all the big office buildings the notice display ed, politics are not allowed to be talked here" The principal plazas of the town are noted for their music ana their fruit stalls, where one can buy the most delicious oranges for sixpence hundred
 The career of Cipriano Castro is more romantic than any fiction. He is paramount now. and has been TOT years, All his enemies are killed. or imprisoned in the dungeons under Be- gota, Paris. New York. or London. How Castro started with an army or tWcn- t--tE. co muleteers and smugglers. he " this force grew and grew; how ne directed battles from horse-lltter where he was confined with broken legs-these and other episodes are but incidents in this wonderful man | career.
 Everybody in the town speaks of him with bated breath-some of them pretty boldly, for he was away in his little mountain resort of La Victoria. where he utterly disregarded cablegrams nbout international blockades and such like boresome things, on the principle that they will arrange themselves II they are let alone" Indeed, the Presl- dent will often disappear altogether leaving no address at the American legation perhaps just at the time wher the asphalt controversy-one of th' myriad Venezuelan troubles-is mos
 acute.

middle height, and with his Indian blood showing most plainly. I do not think he is an inch over five feet, and he is stopping at that.
 And yet here is the man who has conquered a country with handful of mule drivers, and he has given sleep less nights to the diplomats of the world. He asks all his visitors many questions about the navy and army of their country, and fully believes that the one war ship he has seen in his life the Presidente Sarmiento. of the Ar genuine Republic-is the powerfullest battle ship in the world.
 During our long and rambling con- versation President Castro did not con- ceal his contempt for England and Germany; and I afterwards heard he was unaware of the very existence of India and Australia. Often he will shave and dress himself in the presence of his visitors and then take the lat ter for awaIk round the town when he has satisfied himself in his mirror that he looks his best in frock coat and silk hat.
 So you see there is no side about Venezuela's autocrat. Any one may approach him. He does, however, car ry a revolver in the outside breast pocket of his frock coat. An assassin tried 10 shoot nlT1 OIlCes put lhb lCSA- dent lamed the man with a well-aimed shot and then sent his own doctor to wait on the fellow.
 He will throw money to small boys in the street and treat the country peasants to cigars and cheap spirits. It Is no wonder the masses love him, while the substantial men of business curse his name. Perhaps the strangest function he ever gave was the great feast in the Mirahores Palace. in Car cacas, when costly viands and fine champagne were free to all, even the beggars in the street.
 Often he will invite casual passers- by into the palace, and give impromp- tu balls, in which the stranger is amazed to see poor Indians in canvas clothes, little better than rags, and roungh sandals, side by side with bril- liant uniforms. gold lace and orders. It is always noticeable at such func- tions of the palace that the President dances with short women and girls, for he is very sensitive about his di- | minutive stature.

QUIETER IN RUSSIA.
No Riots in ST. Petersburg Today, But
People Still Uneasy.

ST. Petersburg, November 13.-The
city continues quiet today. Only one
attempt at disorder has occurred to
give proof to the wild rumors that
were afloat that a general massacre Of
Jews and intellectuals was planned
for yesterday. About 2 o'clock this
morning a crowd of toughs attempt
ed to create a disturbance in the
Nevsky Prospect by starting an at
tack of the intellectuals. The police
who had spent the night on watch
easily dispersed the would-be rioters.
) dispatch which was received this
morning from Moscow states that the
Hooligans there are planning an at
tack on the students. Many Of the
fashionable quarters of the city are
deserted as the people have fed from
their homes on account Of the fear of

TWO MAYORS PROBABLE.
Hearst Will Take Oath and Contest
NIcClellan's Authority.

New York, November lin the
event of the courts not having
made an adjudication of the mayoral-
ty contest Of the city by January 1st,
it is said that William Randolph
Hearst has reached a decision to take
the oath of office, present himself at
the city hall and demand possession
of the Offices. In that event New
York will have two mayors. Hearst
would send messages to the board Of
aldermen as would Mcclellan and as
the board is politically Republican
and Municipal League it would be in
teresting to see which message would
be acted upon Doubtless both may
ors would appoint the various COM
missioners. With two mayors the
courts would have to decide which
was entitled to the office. Under the
law application for recount must be
made within twenty days after elec-
ton and there remains fifteen days
for Hearst's counsel to present af-
fidavits of fraud and non-count Of so
called void and protested ballots. Ap-
plications will be made at Albany To-
day by one of Fearst's counsel to have
ballot boxes stored in one Of the ar
mories and guarded by troops. The
canvass of the vote will be made by
the aldermen Tuesday when a row IS
expected as Hearst's men will demand
the opening of the envelopes contain
ing the void and protested ballots.

FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY.
Liquor Shipped Into the State Must
Be So Marked Or it Will Be
COnfiScated.

Governor Hayward is in receipt Of
a county which has voted out the dis
pensary which states a peculiar Oc-
currence. This county has no dis
pensary constables and the mayor
writes that he will need none-for the
public sentiment Of the people is such
that they will enforce the law through
the regular officers.
Recently the leading meractile firm
in the town received a consignment
of whiskey. .As it was marked in the
name of the firm and did not have on
the recptacle a card indicating that
the stuff was for personal use, the
shipment was seized on the spot. The
mayor now writes to the governor to
inquire what to do. Governor Hey
ward replied that he cannot be the
Judge of the facts in the case in a
county from which he has removed
the constabulary. While the package
was not marked for personal Use" st
was clearly so intended and it IS prob
able that the owner will receive his
liquor.
The shipment was ordered on the
letter head Of the firm, the letter hav-
ing been written by the bookkeeper,
but without any intent to violate the
law, evidently. The shipment having
come in the name OF the firm instead
of the president Of the firm or the
bookkeeper, the town authorities felt
that it was their duty to make the
seizure-The State.

The greatest anxiey is felt in Lon

MAINTAIN ASSOCIATION.
County Presidents Discuss Bale Tax
And Appoint State Organizer.

Columbia, November 11.-Al-
though but 4S hours notice Of a meet
ing Of the county presidents Of this
States division of the South Cotton
association had been given p coun-
ty presidents were here yesterday to
attend the meeting. This is truly a
most remarkable showing and it is
plain that the movement must be Of
unusual interest and import, for TO
few other calls would these men have
so readily responded. Many of those
who were not able to be present sent
letters of regret.
The object of this meeting was to
see that the Scent bale tax will be
collected in each county. Each coun-
ty president appoints a collector for
each twnships, who serves in addi-
ton to the county organizer. This tax
together with the layman.s fee will
support the great organization in
every OlltSI OldlS III lIIC SO0L1i, cS w Gil
as in South Carolina.
Another subject discussed and then
settled upon was the appointment of
a general organizer and superintend-
ent for this State, who will act as
financial agent and also supervise
the erection and maintenance Of
warehouses. President E. d. Smith
Of the South Carolina division, who
presided at the melting yesterday,
will make the appointment before he
leaves for the West next week.
Mr.. Smith in conversation last
evening said that he was impressed
by the interest and enthusiasm which
the county presidents reported from
their various counties. The recent
rise in cotton to II cents has re-
doubled the vigor Of the association.
