The information is given by a com

He was told by the officers the order
would be closed today; and that the

rifles on account of a possible war with
Spain. It is known - the works will
soon start up to their full capacity op
a big government order.
Ner1y a year ago the Winchesters
received an order for 100.000 of them,
which is now nearly, if not quite, filled.
At the time it was received the com
pany had no tools for making ihis par

ture them. This preparation delayed
the work for several months. It is be
lieved it will now require only a few
weeks to get out the 100,000 rifles.

CAMPAIGN A FAILURE.
Wejler's Efforts to .Defeat Maeeo Re
ported Fruitless.
Key West, Fla., Nov. 20 Reports
by steamer from Havana are disap
pointing to tbe Spaniards in tbe results
expected of General Weyler's oper
ations in Pinar del Rio. Maceo is en
trenched in the Cierreras de las Or
ganas in the center of his mountain
fastness, awaiting the attack. The
rumors of his having crossed tbe tro
cha are without foundation.
General Weyler, according to Ha
vana reports, Is expected back in the
city within a few days. Tbe excuse
given for his return is that the roads
are not in condition for active oper
ations, on account of the recent heavy
rains rendering the movement of troops
impracticable. The impression al
ready prevails in, military cir -les in
Havana that General Weyler's cam-
oaign has bein a complete failure and
bis carefully prepared plans to drive
Maceo out of Pinar del Rio have re
ceived a severe setback.
With the exseption of a few unim
portant skirmishes with the advance
guards of the insurgent leader and the
capture of the rebel captain, Valdez.
with eight followers, nothing of great
consequence nas been accompusneo,
although tbe Spaniards have lost sev

Seattle, Nov. 22. News reached
this city late tonight from Skjkoruish,
on the Great Northern railroad, which
indicates that the Skykomish river is
causing much damage. The river has
jumped its banks in many places, and
invaded tbe homes of ranchers. One
instance is given where a woman
waded half a mile with a baby in her
arms, through snow three feet deep, to
escape tbe water. Houses have been
iwept away. The river in .its mad
light is carrying big trees, hencoops.
fences, and in fact anything it can
catch within Us grasp.
A man named ' Baker eame sailing
down the river yesterday on a trunk of
a tree, while near him crouched a big
black bear.
Near tbe town of Skykomish, Mrs.
Sanders saw a bear on a floating tree
and shot it dead, and secured tbe car

THE PURSUIT OF MACEO.
Wejler Moving Toward the Coast of Pinar

Key West, Fla., Nov. 21. The fol
lowing advices from Havana have been
received: . r:.
General Weyler is moving in a south
erly direction toward the coast ot Pinar
del Rio. after haying taken possession
of the mountain passes. These en
trauoes to the mountains of Pinar del
Rio were abandoned by the'lnsurgents.
Tbe Cubans, it is said, made no resist
ance at Uteae points. General Weyler
destroyed the camps of the Cubans at
Cacarajicara, Brujo, Brujlto, Itubi,
Rosario, Amelia, Mannelita, Gober-
nardera, Sorao and other places.
The Spanish swept before them
everything that would have a tendency
to aid the Cubans in carrying on taelr
warfare, destroying- factories and
dwellings, and even tbe farm products
found on the different plantations in
that section of Pinar del Rio,

into the treasury since March 7, 1893,
over $2,000,000 of a total appropriation
of $11,179,455. That this great economy
was effected without loss of efficiency,

THE OUT-TO-DINNER MAN.
e Wha
Is Not Brilliant. Bat
Himself Useful.
"No," said the slightly cynical bach
elor to a New York Tribune man, "it's
not because I am tremendously popu
lar that I get invitations, and I dont
consider it such aa honor to be invited
to dino somewhere every night in the
week with half a dozen or more invita
tions a week to spare. Why in the
world do yon suppose they invite me?
Well, I am a good deal like the fellow
who 13 taken on a ship and made to
work his passage. lie pays for his voy
age with work. I work my passage at
tho dinners. Oh, yes, I do. There s no
use in being vain about these things.
You sec, I'm not married, and there's
.always some young woman, or old
woman, for that matter, who haa to be
taken caro of. Now, a married man is
at a discount at a dinner. Of course,
he takes a woman out. to dinner, but
some man bos to be provided ior his
wife
"I'm just useful at a dinner and that's
why I get invited. I'm not good-looking
and I never said a bright thing in
ray life, but I can talk a streak of staff
and nonsense that ia necessary to keep
a dinner going. I'm good naturcd and
amiable. 1 like everybody, and so 1
get along comfortably witb my neigh-,
bora. In -a mild sort of way, I sup-
pose, I am amusing. And then I am
a good laugher. I . laugh at all the
good things that are said, and at many
of them that arc not so good. I get in
my own little jokes when the time
comes, and so we row along through"
the dinner, I working my passage and
my hostess smiling approval on me.
"Oh, no, it's not a bit damaging to I
my vanity. I simply know it's so, and
accept it cheerfully. I can't dance for
shucks, so I'm of no earthly use at a
dance. If I were a good dancer I'd
probably come in for all that, too. My
strong' point is a dinner, and so I'm
wanted there, and not at . a dance. It
dosesn't wound my vanity a bit. I en
joy the dinner. Having a lot of pretty
women around the table, and listening
to them, and talking to them is lots
more fun than sitting alone In a club,
with only a lot of ghostlike waiters to
amuse you. It's a perfectly fair
bargain. I talk and I am sweet
tempered for my ferriage, and I get on
the ferry a good dinner and enjoyable
surroundings. That's all there is to it,
and as for the honor of the thing arid
all that, there's no more honor in my
being invited to dine out every even
ing than there would be in going out
to fiddle for a party at the regular
price. I talk and get my dinner and
pleasant company. The other man
gets his five or ten dollars, or whatever
the price is, and fiddles."

British Kxporta and Imports Have Fallen
Off Heavily This Year.
An English paper, the Manchester
ITnion, gives this synopsis of trade con
ditions: England has suffered from dull times,
as have France. Gurmany and other
European countries, without regard to
their tariff policies. The aggregato
loss in the export trado this year, aa
compared with the lirst nine months -of
lS'J-J, is given a most $:JO,000,OCO.
But the falling off I., imports is muclt
greater still, amounting to $75,000, '.'00,
showing thai dull times had prevented
the British frora buying since they
could not sell. This falling off in Brit
ish imports by S73,000,000 in nine
months jrives one good reason why
wheat is but little above CO cents a
ousiiei in Chicago. The exports of
llritibh coal fell off $10,000,000 in the
first nine months of this year aa
compared with tho year before. In
cotton, yu-ns the export dimin
ished by , yer 25,000,000 pounds and
jn cotton piece goods by 25U,000,OOJ
yards, as compared with the exports in
1893. While this shows a heavy im

labor, it is indicative, however, of da

HOW ME WAS ACCEPTED. 1
Dora Indeed Is a New Way te
; Woman.
Tho New Orleans Picayune has this
interesting story of two literary celeb
rities in a recent issue: The late Prof.
Aytoun was uncommonly diffident '
when making proposals of marriage to
Miss Jane Emily tV ilson, who after
ward became his wife. The lady re- "
fuindodhim that before she shonhl f l
her absolute consent it would be nocca- .
sary to obtain her father's approval.
You must Bpeak for mo,".saW the'"
suitor, "for I could not summon cour- '
age to speak to the professor on the .
subject." .
"1'apa is in the library," said the
ladv.
"Then yon had better go to him,"
said the suitor, "and I will wait your
return.'
- The lady proceeded to the library, and
taking her father affectionately by the
hand mentioned that the professor hail
asked her hand in marriage. She add
ed: "Shall I accopt his offer, papa?
lie is so diddent that he won't speak
to you about it himself."
' "Then we must deal tenderly with
his feelings," said the hearty old
Christopher. "I'll write my reply on a
slip of paper and pin it to your back."
"Papa's answer is on the back of my
dress," said Miss Jane, as she entered
the drawing-room. Turning around
she delighted suitor read these words:
"With the author's compliment."
VERTICAL WRITING.
Telegraphers Are Mainly Responsible
for
Its Introduction Here.
- If the vertical handwriting which is
being taught in our public schools pre- 1
rails, and becomes tbe ordinary hand
jvriting, tho pcoplo who enjoy its ad
tantagca will have in largo measure the
jelcgraphcrs to thank for it. They
"lavo been the pioneers of vertical writ
ing. For the lost twenty years almost
wery telegraph operator in the country
has written a round, vertical hand,
plainer than any other sort of hand
writing known, with round, fat loops
for the letters which drop below the
tine, and simple capitals. This teleg
rapher's handwriting haa much in
common with the English "civil service
handwriting," which may have preceded
It, but the civil service hand ia less
often vertical and has certain points of
difference. Men's handwriting ten'?i
in a general way to conform to the
fashion of Roman print prevalent at
any time, and as the most ordinary
print letter nowadays is of a round or
Scottish face, it is not strange on tne
whole that the tendency in handwriting
ia toward a round letter. Women'
chirography is more capricious in its
fashion, though it haa inclined pretty
steadily now for several years toward
angular cnMciam.
Death by Electricity.
The Digest gives an account of some
experiments on the effect of attentat-.
ing electric currents on animal organ-,
isms described in a paper read before
a recent medical congress at Rome, It
aly, and which corroborate the views
of D'Asonval, referred to recently. The
current used was an alternating one, .
and it was found that animals sub
jected to from fifteen hundred to two
thousand volts were not easily killed,
and that death resulted mostly from
asphyxia caused by the sudden stop
page of respiration. Frequently breath
ing started again spontaneously, and
the animal recovered completely. In
no case was there any physiological
change noted, though in a few there
were mechanical lesions, in themselvefc
cause for death. This further confirm
ation of D'Arsonval's formula, "A man
shocked by electricity should be treat
ed as if drowned," renders it still more
important that the electrician should
make himself acquainted with the prop
er means of resuscitation from the ef
fects of electric shock.
