Barcelona.

Barcelona, one may imagine. IS
About the most uncomfortable dwell

city is part of the kingdom of Spain.

has anything in common with the rest
OF the Spanish people.
While Spaniards elsewhere are not
aroused against the government and
against the monarchtc ideas. BARGE

Spain is quiescent the workingmen Of
Barcelona and Catalonia are soreIv

Galatians are practically a people by
themselves. Their traits are not the
traits Of the Spaniard. They are merry

their misfortune to be included in the
Spanish kingdom, and it may be
SPANS misfortune to have such trou

should be prepared to establish
throughout the country a general par

the development of such a service he
hopes congress will authorize the de-
livery on rural routes of parcels
weighing as high as eleven pounds
which is the weight limit for the in

A rural parcel post of the kind pro-

OF the business to be handled. He
accordingly urges a further inquiry
and special appropriation to pay it's

The Modern Huskinu Bee.

husking bee in a dimly lighted barn

the privilege of a kiss which its dis,
coyery ecrned?
Nowadays the scene is more up-to-
date. Picture farm yard Hastily dec
GRATED with Japanese lanterns, a pile
of the harvested corn shocks in the
center, around which cluster groups
of fashionably gowned motorists and
the whole place encircled by stabbed
~T1notor cars whose acetyIene lamps IL
lumine the scene.
The jolly party Immediately fell to
work husking the yellow grain and
thereby gained a fine appetite for the
supper that followed. OF course, cider
and doughnuts were on hand. After
disposing of the supper and husking
the couples crowded into the barn
and danced.

The Whip Hand,

The broken-down cabby regarded
with CLEAN of delight the taxi which
had broken down. But he spoke no
word. The chauffeur began operating
on his machine. He turned it and
twisted it and banged 1t and screwed
it, but TO no avail. And still the cabby
spoke not.
The chauffeur banged again. He did
things to ignition sparks that wouldn't
ignite, and cranks that refused to be
anything but cranky. And still the
cabby, sour of yisage, lay low and said
muffin
Then the chauffeur wiped his beady
brow, and then the cabby, still with
the CLEAN in his eye, crossed over.

ing out his whip Ere y'are, mister!

An Odd Nucqet of Gold.

There have been many large and
oddly shaped gold nuggets found in
the United States and elsewhere, but
the oldest of them all was that dis
covered at the Midhas mine, on Sulky
gully, near Melbourne, Australia, in
1887. The nugget was fiat and almost
the exact counterpart in contour of a
colossal human hand held open, with
the exception of the thumb and fore
finger, which were closed together in
a manner so as to make it appear that
the thumb was holding the finger in
place. It's greatest length was 1914
inches and it's greatest breadth s
inches. 1t was of the very purest
gold, with but little foreign sub
stance adhering, mostly between the
fingers" and weighed GIT ounces. 1t
was found in the northwest main
drive of the Midhas mine, 120 feet
below the surface of the earth and at
a spot only so feet from where the
famous Lady Brassey nugget was dis
covered the year before. 1t weighed
81 pounds Of pure gold.

BRAZIL YIELDS To
MUT|NOUS TARS
Navy Men Are Granted Amnesty
by Congress.
FIGHT is SHORT AND SHARP
Higher Pay, Shorter Hours and AboIl-
ton of Corporal Punishment Won
by Sailors Who Re-
Votted

Rio de Janeiro. = The mutfny
among the sailors Of BraziTs navy
is at and end, President Fonseca
having signed the measure adopted by
congress granting the mutinous sail
ors amnesty and all other demands.
The senate had voted on Thursday
to grant the demands of the rebellious
navy. The chamber Of deputies hest
tated longer than the upper house, but
stormy and acrimonious debate by a
vote Of ia to %.
The victory of the sailors, which
was gained only after they had killed
four superior officers, among them the
captain of the battleshfp Minas Gueras,
means for them increased pay, shorter
hours of work through larger crews,
and the abolition of corporal punish
ment. The news of the passage of the
amnesty proposition was conveyed to
the mutineers by wireless, they having
departed from the harbor.
While che revolt lasted the people
Of the city were kept in a state of
suspense, tearing that the mutineers
would make good their threat to blow
up the capitol unless their wishes
were met. 1t is doubtful, however,
that they would have taken this step
IN any event because of the Hkeli-
hood of complications with Great
Britain.
There is no attempt to give a po-
litfcal color to the revolt, as only
petty navy officers participated with
the sailors, but the mutinous ships
constituted a controlling proportion of
the fleet.
Brazil has but two dreadnoughts,
the Mfnas Geraes and the Sac PauIo,
and these being joined by the coast
defense ships Marshal Floriano and
Marshal Deodora and the scout ship
Bahia, the possessors were in prac-
teal control of the fleet, and if nee
essay to accomplish their ends prob
ably could have made short work of
the smaller craft, consisting of six
protected cruisers, tree torpedo
cruisers and several vessels Of the
gunboat class.
The trouble among the sailors had
been brewing for some time, and
when the Minas Geraes ran up the
red flag Tuesday night the other yes
sells soon followed her example.
