by
Cincinnati, Dec. 4. A special to
the Commercial Tribune from Key
West, Fla., says:
Passengers by steamer from Havana
tonight say that a train with 500
wounded Spaniards .arrived there to
day. It was said most of them came'
from the vicinity of San Cristobal and
Candelaria. No definite statement
could be had as to what battlefield they
came from. Rumors prevailed on their
arrival that Weyler had sustained an
other defeat. Counter statements
were also made that the vanguard of
Maceo's army had been defeated.
Moreover, it was announced that wey-
ler is on the eve of attempting to storm
some of the hilltops where Maceo is en
trenched, and this has raised great ex
pectations in Havana. Several Ameri
can correspondents at Havana nave
had friendly warnings tbat Weyler is
contemplating some of tbe more out
spoken ones because their reports do
not please him.

Santiago De Cuba, Dec. 4. This
city has been thrown Into consterna
tion by a descent of the Spanish police.
Tbe homes of many peaceable citizens
were entered after the town had gone
j to bed. It is known tbat at least 25
persona were arrested and hurried to
prison. Nearly all of Eastern Cuba is
in tbe hands of the Cubans, save the
city. The Spanish policy of arresting
citizens suspected of sympathy with
the insurgents had long -since spread
among all classes. The recent arrests
are further evidence of General Wey
ler's determination to wage war on
citizens in their homes, as well as on
the armed bodies in the field.

IN SESSION AGAIN.
Congress Regularly Convened In Short
Session.
Washington, D. C, Dec. 7. By 11
o'clock the putlii: tall ries of the sen
ate were well filled and crowds were
at the entrances unable to gain ad
mission. Exactly at 12 o'clock, Vice
President Stevenson entered and
called the senate to order, nd Rev.
Dr. Milburn delivered an impressive
invocation The roll-call showed 70
senators present. Cullom was tbe first
to receive recognition, offering a reso
lution that tbe bouse be notified that
the senate was in session and ready to
proceed with business, which was
agreed td. Sherman made the custo
mary motion for a committee of sen
ators and members to wait upon the
president. Upon its adoption the pre
siding officer named Sherman and
Smith of New Jersey as a committee
from the senate. At 1 o'clock there
was a further recess for 30 minutes,
then another for 15 minutes. At 1:45
Senator Sherman reported that the
president would communicate his
views in writing. Senatot Prudeo, of
tbe White House staff, immediately
stepped forward with the message,
which General Cox, secretary of the
senate, read. At tbe conclusion of tbe
reading of the president's message the
senate adjourned at 3:35 p. M.
Tbe house presented an animated
scene for an hour before Speaker
Reed appeared. The galleries, to
which the public was admitted without
cards, were crowded before 11 o'clock,
while the halls were jammed with
those unable to gain entrance. As the
hands of the clock pointed to 12,
Speaker Reed quietly ascended the
rostrum looking bronzed and vigorous.
The hum of conversation finally
ceased. Rev. Cowder, of Michigan,
chaplain of the house, offered a simple
but impressive prayer. The roll-call
showed the presence of 271 members.
The usual formal resolution for the
appointment of a committee to join a
similar committee of the senate to in
form the president tbat tbe house was
ready for business was adopted. The
speaker appointed Cannon of Illinois,
Payne of New York, and Turner, of
Georgia.

Thinks he Can Prevent Any Disease
Inoculation. .
Columbia, Mo., Dec. 4. Dr. Thomas
Powell, of Columbia, seems to have
learned how to inoculate a man's . sys
tem so as to render it impervious to
disease germs. As vaccination pre
vents smallpox, so this discovery will
ward off scarlet fever, consumption,
diphtheria and every other disease
caused by germs. So confident is Dr.
Powell of the truth of his discovery
that he has written largely for scienti
fic journals on the subject, and has
tested it practically by exposing him
self to all manner of diseases.
Be entered this week into an agree
ment with California capitalists by
which he is to be paid $9000 for one-
third interest in the discovery. A san
itarium will be erected in Los Angeles
and experiments begun. If successful,
Dr. Powell's fortune is assured.

Hnrt In an Engagement With
Forces
New York, Dec. 7. A Herrald's
special from Jacksonville, Fla., says:
Your correspondent has received a
dispatch from Havana which states
that Antonio Maceo has crossed the
trocna with a large force. -
. It is reported according to this dis
patch ' that:Captain-General ; 'Weyler ;
has been wounded at the front.
. All news from the scene of the en
gagement is suppressed by the officials
at tbe plaoe.
"Excuse me," observed the man in
spectacles, "but I am a surgeon, and
there is not where the liver is."
"Never you mind where bis liver is,"
retorted the other. If it was in his
big toe or bis left ear DeWitt's Little
Early Risers would reach it and shake
it for him. Snipes & Kinersly Drug Co.
The Glenmorag floated.
Astoria, Or., Dec. 7. At high tide
today the Glenmorag, which has been
high and dry on North beach for many
months, was floated by Captain Burns,
but not entirely pulled off the beach.
It will take another effort to get her
into deep water. It is hoped to get
her clear tomorrow.
At last comes a bit of appreciation
from a source whence it has long1 been
withheld. A young Englishman, who
lias been doing the rounds of the Amer
ican cities, writes home in praise of us,
and, better still, an English weekly.
the Gentlewoman, publishes it, as fol
lows: "The Americans 1 simply love;
they are so wonderfully sympathetic
to one. There is no trouble they will
cot take, or personal inconvenience
ihey will not suffer, if in uny way they
can render one a service." The name of
this extraordinary young Englishman
is not given or it should be blazoned
forth.
The weekly paper, in reproducing
the extract, takes its cue from it, and
urges Londoners and all English folk
to appreciate the "bouudless kindness
end hospitality which they (Anier
leans) heap upon ur," and be ready to.
"receive the strangers right royally
in return. It calls utttention further
(o the unprecedented influx of "men
and women from all parts of the
United States" who are now crowding,
find will for the next six weeks crowd,
London, and then separate for wander
ings all over England, and makes a
plea that they be well treated. There
is a bit of policy in its concluding ad-
vice, which every one who has suffered
the extortionate impertinence of the
London tradespeople an imperti
nence none the less because it is often
enveloped in fawning servility will
say a hearty " amen" to: "In these
bad times of depression in trade, it
would be as much to our advantage
as to theirs, not only to welcome, but
retain the Americans in England as
long as possible. Not all Americans
are rich, though most are generous.
We are sadly in need of their dollars,
but need not be extortionate, for all
that."
One is provoked and indignant to
think of the thousands of dollars these
"crowds of Americans" will spend, not
only in England but through Europe,
before the autumn will send them
borne again, l'rovoked because many
of the thousands will go for 'things
that will be bought under the impres
sion that if they are the same price
they are better than can be bought at
home, while, if they are cheaper than
the same goods here, it will still be sup
posed that they are of the same
quality.
A woman buying gloves in Paris
last summer wits surprised at the prico
charged ber for the make of gloves
she was accustomed' to buy for con
siderably less in New York.
"Ah, madatne," said the glib shop
girl, "but we send only our 'seconds'
to New York." Of course this was
wholly untrue. It is absurd to sup
pose that skilled American wholesale
buyers are going to be imposed upon
with seconds of anything, much less
gloves, whose quality is a known quan
tity every time to an expert in the
trade.'
Tbe same woman's experience in Lou
don was similar Prices were always
York, but stress was invariably laid
on the superior wearing qualities, a
stress that was expensively disproved
in the case of most articles. Touristtt
from this country are looked upon
abroad every time as geese to lay golden
eggs. They are geese to give their gold
for the value they get, nine times out
of ten. N. Y. Times.

Rash Declarations.
' I never heard a young girl say, as
young girls are often fond of saying,"
observed an old lady on the summer
boarding-house piazza, "what sort of
a man she will marry and what sort
only, that I do not think of certain
speeches to which I myself have
listened from pretty lips before this.
A school friend of mine so held New
Jersey in detestation that she tore its
map from her geography. She used to
say that nothing would induce her to
marry a man who was a widower, or
wore a wig, or lived in New Jersey.
And the man of her choice was guilty
of all three of these enormities. I
used to talk over my future with two
cousins. I would not marry a business
man, I said. Kate would not think of
a clergyman, or Carry of a farmer.
And we married respectively, a busi
ness man, a clergyman and a farmer
It ia all like a smart young American
'help in my grandmother's kitchen,
who was wont to declaim to ns chil
dren on tbe scorn in which she held-all
men, always winding up her denuncia
tions of the sex by: 'No, I wouldn't
marry any man that walks on two
legs. And she didn't She married m
one-legged man!" N. Y. Times.

How the Anlmnl Is Developed Into a
Fighter for theFulillo Arena.
The bulls used for fighting purposes
are a specially -selected, specially-cared-for
class. They are all pedi
greed. Andalusia is especially the
district of the bnlL Flere, at the age
of one year, tho younj bulls are
separated from the heifers, branded
with tho owner's mark and turned out
loose on the plains to graze with others
of their own age.
When a year older the yonng bulls
are gathered together in order that
their mettle and fighting qualities may
be tested. One ' of them ia separated
from the herd and rJinaf.tl lv n. inn nn
kavc.bi.ck, vrhoj tiy tne skill fuf $se of
a blunted lance, overthrows the escap
ing bull, whereupon another rider
comes in ftont of the animal with a
sharper lance to withstand the ex
pected attack. If the bull, on regain
ing his feet, attacks the rider twice it
is passed as a fighting animal; but if
he turns tail and runs off then it is set
aside to be killed or to be used in agri
cultural work. And so with each ani
mal, until the whole herd of two-year-olds
has been tested.
Each bull that has stood the test
successfully is then entered in the
, herd book with a description of its ap
j pearance and receives a name such as
Espartero, Ilamcnco and the like. This
process of careful selection goes on
from year to 3-car until the bull is five
years old, when, should its mettle still
prove true, it i3 ready for the arena,
and flaming posters appear on the
walls of Madrid or Seville announcing
that Espartero (or whatever his name
is) will, on such and such a date, make
his first and final appearance.
A good "warrantable" five-year-old
bull for the fighting ring costs f-om
70 to 80.

Dear Friends: I know how impos
sible it is to silence your grief with
words. The heart pleads for utter
ance in tear?, and speaks thus: We
bow in sorrow for tbe taking of your
little one, feeling that while the rip
ened fruit may be gatheted, it seems
cruel that the bud should be taken be
fore it has even opportunity to unfold
its blossom. But in nature fruits fall
and so do blossoms and buds. In the
ways of kind nature this is perhaps
best, and in taking from our arms this
little one, we will try and accept the
cross and bear it, believing that the
bud will yet blossom and bear fruit in
the angel land where the spirit of this
pure child has so early flown.
A Friend.
