The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1912-04-13

The bachelor is a man living in a
singular and unnatural state; a social
buccaneer, fawned and followed by
dowagers, feared and feted by daugh-
ters; whose type in all the ages has
been considered a danger to society, a
threat to civilization, a scandal to his
race, a man to be chased, captured and
chastened.
There are two species of bachelors
troglOdyte or hard-shell bachelor, and
the butterfly of temporary bachelor.
The former has his lair in a fiat, his
habitat in a club, and his atmosphere
is smoky, alcoholic and cynical; the
latter is a futterer in drawing rooms,
an habitue at four o'clock teas and as
semblies, smiling, elusive, sartorial
male creature, who is Melted and hob
bled in due season. There is a large
and negligible genus of male creatures
who are merely quasi bachelors; men
who are reluctantly single, and are
captured and let away by any petticoat
who happens along.
The bachelor is the pursuit and prey
of women, who regards his civil con-
dition as a reproach to her charms and
a reflection on her skill; and her aim
is to snare and lead him into captiv-
house, home, husband and a helot
to harry, hector, humble and humanize.
To survive long in freedom bachelor
must be gifted with unusual wisdom
and unwonted WEAKNESS. The female
of the species camps on his trail
eterna1ly, wise, willy and wistfu1, at
tentive, attractive and alluring, smil-
ing in his face, praising his talents,
Turing him into corners where dangers
Turk and traps are sprung and where
the helpless old he bachelor is hypno-
tized, held, hooked, battered and har-
messed. and where he speaks instead
of holding his peace. Taken in the
meshes of his slim. silken. soft-eyed
feline captor, the bachelor is led away
to the church. tied up in a knot and
reduced to serfdom. Then is his glory
departed. The chase done, the quarry
seized, he becomes merely a payer of
bills, hooker of waists, a scalp hang
ing at a slender belt, pitied by those
who chased and failed, and stigmatiz-
ed as a silly old fool as he is led
around by the Diana who hunted and
battered him.
AS a bachelor, he was the envy of
his sex, the desire of women, the well
coined of spinsters, the sought after of
mothers, the cynosure of eyes, the in
.spirer of signs, lion among the la
dies. As a benedict, none is so poor as
to do him reverence; he is an OK in the
yoke, a broken broncho, a holder of
hats, a carrier of cloaks. a buttoner
of gloves, a shadow in the procession,
a mere married man. Sic transit gloria
bachelorum.-Life.

= cable. I saw 1t myself, because my
lived in the house.
That was another mistake because he
turned out to. be In league with the
rebels. The box sat on table near a
window that looked out on the water
My brother-in-1aw was not wicked,
but only weak. He believed what the
schemers told him He Is dead, too.
The author of the story defends the
Spanish authorities by saying that
they did not intend to harm the Am
orleans without provocation, and that
the honor of Blanco and his stan was
safe in any event, while the rebels
knew no such word as honor. He con-
tinues:
Then the Maine came. I never shall
forget how brave she looked with
your flag standing out stiffiy in the
northeast trade-winds and the sun
cleaning on her steel and brass as
she steamed slowly into the -harbor
and picked up the mooring which was
reserved for her. And the sleeping
mine was down in the mud below her.
Captain Sigsbee was accorded every
formality and courtesy. He and his
officers came and went freely every
day But the crew never came on
shore: in that the captain was wise. 1t
was much better so. 1t was in the
latter part of January that the ship
arrived, and for nearly three weeks
she swung at her mornings and things
went on in Havana much as before,
except that the crowd at the landing,
through which Captain Sigsbee had
to push his way every day, got denser
and their looks got blacker. The
anger of our people increased a the
arrogance of your government IN
sending the ship.
AS for the rebels, they glowered at
the captain because he did nothing.
They believed that when the Maine
was sent she was coming to help them.
But we went right on with our work
them, conquering
them, putting down the rebellion, con-
fining suspects, executing traitors
And the Maine had been in the harbor
for days, and no other ships came, no
men were landed, nothing was done
The rebels felt sure that the crew
were all republicans and would help
a republic if the captain would only
let them come ashore. They believed
that your country would lend its
whole strength to help their losing
cause IL only your people coulu DE
aroused. They were near to a COM
plete surrender when the Maine came
and every day 1t was harder for them
to hold out. They could not las
much longer. Yet your people seemed
contented to send only the Maine
which did nothing. And SO they made
a plot which was to result in arous-
ing your people to fight us.
The aged Spaniard in the story goes
on to say that ris brother-in-law be-
came SO enthusiastic at a rebel meet
ing that he lost his self-contrOl ani
let the secret out. The rebels though
of grand plan-if 1T had only work
ed. 1t was to let the Maine drift {
few feet away from the mine, ant
| then press the key, cover the battle
ship with a geYser of mud, enrag,
Sigsbee, stir all America, precipitat'
war between the United States ant
Spain, and emerge as free Cuba. 81
that very night they touched off tn,
