 TROOPS TO CUBA
Conditions Have Improved So That Will Not Be Necessary For
 A.United Suites to Intervene.

Washington, Jan. 19.-There will be no occasion for American intervention in Cuba, was the opinion expressed today in a stats ment issued by the State Department.

Because of this, the Department advises the army and navy further preparation need not be made for in wention at this time. Consequently the activity at army posts along the Atlantic coast is rescinded.

 OFF CAROLINE COAST
Ihree T Crew Rescued By Life Say. ers--Others Clinging To
 Rigging,


 Beaufort, N. C., Jan. 19.-The schooner Harry Prescott, bound from New Haven, Conn.,, to Whining ton. N. C., with cargo of salt. foundared this afternoon at the Dia- mond Shoals off the Hatteras coast. Three of the crew of seven flung themselves into the sea and were rescued by life savers at nightfall. : The other four were clinging to the rigging while the revenue cutter Sasca, summoned by the wireless calls for help from the Diamond Shoals ligh;ship, was rushing to the rescue.
 The four men clinging to the rig ging are visible to the life ravins crew on shore. but cannot be reaea= ed because of the high seas. They have lashed themselves to the rig ging and are undoubtedly suffering intensely from the cold.
 The cutter Casca was cruising from the Carolina coast when the 70. O. D." signal was received from the lightship. Tie message was picked up shortly afterwards by the Onondaga at work in Chesapeake bay. Both responded that they were on their way to the wreck and the news communicated to the waiting crowded on shore was received with l cheers. t----<., -1''

ICE GORGE BREAKS

Many Barges and Boats are Crushed
 By the Ice in the River.

Louisville, Ky, Jan. 20.-Under pressure from the upper Ohio and her tributaries, the ice gorge here broke today, and the immense ice pack which rested on the river bot tom and damned the channel of the Ohio from shore to shore for miles above the falls. began to move down stream. sweeping the banks, crushing coal borges, and floating property.
 Every boat of the Monongahela River Coal and Coke Company was working all night to protect the fleet of barges, containing millions of bushels of coal recently brought down from Pittsburg. Several ba:- ges moved along the bank have been sunk, and one barge was hurled against the life saving station, crush ing the hull of the station. Two motor boats were swept under the ferry boat City of Jacksonville. The river has been rising at the rate of foot an hour and all the Kentucky tributaries of the Ohio are swelling the flood.

VHE exhibition OF works of art in
the Freer collection, which has
attracted wide notice since
its opening in the National Mu-
scum building in April, was ter
minated Monday, the pictures and other
art objects being reshipped to the COL
lector in Detroit. This exhibition has been
a real boon to many persons. not only
residents Of Washington. but transient
visitors The oriental paintings We're a
genuine revelation, the works by Whistler
a keen delight to the initiated and the
continuity of the collection lesson itself
in art. And this exhibition gave only an
inkling Of the interest and value OF the
collection as a whole-a meager foretaste
of it's educational and pleasurable quail
ties.
The F'reer collection is counted as a
part of the National Gallery of Art, but
it should be remembered that it will be
housed separately, Mr.. Freer having not
only made this stipulation. but pledged
in the deed of gift a sufficient sum for the
the construction Of a home for these
treasures. Undoubtedly this building will
be erected on land adjacent to the Ma
tional Gallery. which. it is hoped. may
propriate dignity on the Mall Meanwhile
the National Gallery collections are
housed in the new building erected for
the National Museum, where they have
temporary but not unattractiye quarters

There are indeed some great masterpieces
now to be seen In the National gallery,

CHAPTER XVu.-Continued.

Surcon was at home and with him
three or four of the elder fishermen with
whom he was in the habit of consulting
when the solution of an affair was not
easy. What was to be done with me was
the question under discussion; county Of
ficers would. Of course, take charge Of
the affair soon as they were notified,
but until a warrant was sworn ont for
my arrest and the sheriff arrived. what
was to be done? Pilon had offered to
make the formal charge. But in the
meantime? Whether would feo or re-
main. and IL remaining fight. ana Il fight
ing kill more men Of Lavsuche? 1t was
at this point in the discussion that we
entered the room where they had con-
vened. Surcon. with naive frankness. in
formed us what agitated their minds;
now that / was here / could tell them
which Of the aforementioned courses l
should follow. When, therefore. 1 stated
that I intended neither to run nor to
fight, he declared that that was indeed
we'll: that, though 1 had. perhaps, COM
mitted murder, ] was yet a gentleman
and that Lavouche would appreciate my
acquiescence in taking sensible course
in a difficult matter. To my statement
that was ready for an investigation and
would let the village conduct an exam
inatton at the cOroner's inquest, II they
50 OeSiTeu, tney expressed surprise, con-
sdered the subject at some length and
finally pronounced It good. The mayor,
by virtue Of his Office. had the right. II.
indeed. he were not so compelled. to make
inquiry into drownings. arsons. thefts. as
saultS, SANDERS. perjuries. accidents.
births, wrecks. deaths of all kinds, muir
ders, marriages, sickness. drunkenness,
poverty, quarrels, village taxes and what
soever concerned the welfare of La
vouche.
These and all things. 1t was agreed.
came within the province of the mayor
to examine; an inquiry into Describes
death would, therefore. be both we'll and
wise: while old Gaspards boatshop. the
largest room in the village. would be the
place to hold the investigation. There all
could be present, for 1t was good public
policy that all should be admitted. And
so. when / answered that the sooner Ii
was condu0ed the better IL would suit me,
= o'clock was decided upon by the coun-
selors.
As I and my two companions returned
down the village we encountered Pilon
holding forth to q group Of men and
women. I was a scoundrel who should
be hung and given to the crows, said
Pilon, who. in the ardor Of his speech.
failed to perceive that we had halted
upon the edge OF the little crowd. For I
had slain Descarte by a cowardly blow
in the back-that was Gods truth Pilon
fiercely stroked his mustache. Yes.

Jobs for the INDECENT.
From the Chicago Tribune


In Switzerland the people act upon the
theory that a man who is unemployed is,
If left to himself, liable to become a
waste by being a subject Of charity and
a tax upon the community. Therefore. the
problem is considered as an economic
question.
The purpose is to assist the unfortunate
unemployed to secure work, not only for
the sake of his family, but in the inter-
ests Of the state. There is no liberation
for the loafer Begging Is prohibited by
the law and vagrancy is classified as a
crime
If an unemployed person does not make
a serious effort to find work the authori-
ties will find II for him, and he is COM
PEELED to perform it. II he refuses he is
placed in the workhouse. where strict
discipline is maintained and every inmate
is required to work to his full capacity.
receiving therefor his board and lodg-
ing and from 5 to 10 cents a day in

There are also institutions where tenn

tive wages.

beneath this stage action. ATS environs
are those Of the spirit. not those of

soul Of man. Envy. deceit, unfaithful-

gratitude, motive misconstrued good
faith denied-these are among the
crimes that this comedy pictures under
the easily understood problem of the
man and the woman. To set aside it's

its effect alone. this is a good reading
play. bad acting play. Only one in a
hundred follows its real current The
