SAGASTA IS WARY
He Will Not Give Cuba Independence
Without the Consent of the .
Spanish Cortes. ,
Snala M purring far Delay Will Treat
With fnb Alowa Regarding to
Terms of Armis
tice. Washington, April l. It can be
reiterated authoritatively, that the
latest dispatch from Madrid was thor
oufhly uusatUfactory to the adminis
tration. The president, it is annouue
ed, will make a public statement im
mediately after tbe close of the cabi
net meeiiutf, which is now being hel .
The reply of Spain is said in effdet
to be a representation that the inde
pendence of Cuba means the parting
ur cession of Spanish territory, which
cannot be done without tbe consent of
the Spanish cortes, which will not be
in session until April 24. Then a
counter proposition is submitted that
the Cuban matter shall be ettledupun
a basis equitable ainone nations. Tbe
United States is asked to give Spain
time to treat with the insurgents and
ascertain what can be done1 in tbe
nature of a peaceful settlement.
Senators who know the nature of the
H,,"tel" Tery
diplomacy, and made for its effeet up
on the world at large. It is said the
reply is utisatiefaetory to the president,
and be doea Dot believe it will be cat-
iofacaory to conjfress.
Tbe admioiatratioa officers feel that
after Monday cootfresa is likely to take
matters into iu own baods, and tbe
fear la expressed tbat there will a dis
agreement between the branches of
tbe government which would be seri
ous a this critical point. No one at
the capital has undertaken to speak for
the president, although those who
have seen him, say his hopes of a peace
ful solution of the difficulty have been
disappointed by the reply of Spain.
The following is tbe abstract of a
telegram received from General Wood
ford on tbe evening: of March 31. on
tbe general situation in Cuba. He
informs the govern men t of the United
Slates tbat Blanco bas revoked tbe de
cree relating to tbe reconcentra Jus in
the western provinces of Cuba; tbat
the Spanisb govern aunt has placed at
tbe disposal of tbe governor. general
credit of 1600,000 to tbe eud that the
coutitry peop e may return at once and

govrrnneut win ao ept woatever aa'

luTfpeople tbat taay be sent from tbe

plan now in operation. He proposed
to coufiJe the preparations for an hon
orable and stable peace to tbe insular
parliament, without wboseconcurrence
tbe Spauiah gove'iimeit would not be
aide to arrive at a fiual result, it being
understood that tbe powers reserved
by tbe constitution to the central gov
ernment are not lessened or diminijih
ed. As the Cuban chambers will not
meet until May 4, tbe Spanish govern
ment will Dot on its part object to a
suspension of hostilities if asked for
by the insurgents from the general in
chief, to whom it will belong to deter
mine thft duration and condition of t he
suspension. The president will com
municate with congress as soon as be
can pi epare a message.

In the life of a modern business com
munity a man must beware of too much
wisdom, says the Chautauquan. Tha
specialist is the man who succeeds and
having once set his hand to an occupa
tion one dare never leave it under pen
alty of failure in what he has chosen aa
his life work. In tha west all this was
different. Versitility was a necessity.
The successful man must know how to
do many things. The gleanings of any
one field of activity were too small to
afford a living of themselves. This fact
was accepted by the citizens of th
country, sometimes with a grim humor
which marked the west.
A young lawyer in ' a western town
had out a sign which read: "John
Jones, attorney-at-law. Beat estate and
insurance. Collections promptly attend
ed to at all hours of the day. or night.

T JUST AS HE DREAMED IT.
A Vlsloa That Reader: mm Baa-la
rawerlesa to Avert CoUtslasu
George Anderson, of Springfield, I1L.
aa engineer on tbe Wabash railroad,
died of injuriea which be received in m
bead-on collision at Naples recently.
On the rnorfiing of the accident Aa
derson dreamed tbat ha had .been in a
collision, that he had been pinioned be
neath his engine, and that the escaping
team had begun to burn his flesh, when
ha awoke. ' Anderson waa troubled, by
the dream and told bis family about It.
He aaid he felt tbat there was a warning
in the dream, and he waa almost per
suaded not to go out on the road that
day, but he went. Anderson talked to
his flreman about the presentiment.
It evidently preyed upon his mind, for
ha became abstracted in manner and al
most heedless of his surroundings. Tha
nearer the train approached its destina
tion tbe mors distraught Anderson be
came, and ha had the appearance or
dreaming again aa ha went about hla
work in the cab. Be did not give his
usual attention to tha fireman, and tha
latter felt that something waa wrong
with the engineer.
At pinffs Conductor Garrison got tha
orders at the depot and took them to
Anderson. The engineer beard them
read and attended to the reading in tha
same absent-minded manner that had
marked his conduct throughout the
morning. Taking tbe copies, ho me
chanically placed them under hla aeat
cushion. As the conductor turned awar
from the cab Anderson called him back
and aaid: v-
I am going to hava ona of tha moat
awful wrecks you aver heard of."
Tha conductor waa startled, and asked
him what made him aay this.
I know it is so, replied Anderson,
"because I had trouble with my engine
all last night and could not sleep. I am
going to have a h-ad-on collision.'
Garrison told him he had only suf
fered a nightmare. Anderson shook hla
head gloomily and aaid ha knew the ac
cident would occur. Anderson's orders
instructed him to meet a local freight
at Naples and wait for that train to
take the siding.' When the point was
reached Anderson gave nolndication of
topping his engine, and aa" the train
daahed by 'the switch the fireman aaw
his engineer sitting aa if in a trance.
At the aame moment he aaw the local
coming down upon them. . A collision
waa inevitable and the fireman sprang "
for the footboard, crying to the en
gineer to Jump. . ' ' ' '
Anderson looked at the fireman in "
dazed- manner, but made no movement
toward the cab entrance. The firs mad
prang out and the trains rushed to
getber. Anderson waa caught beneath
hie engine just as he had dreamed hi .
would be and tbe steam enveloped him.
Be waa finally taken from his awful po
sition, but be had received injuriea from
which ha soon died. Every other man
on the train escaped. St. Louia Re

Coaatry Fwaeral la Mataa.
During a funeral In the town of Cut
ler two days ago two lover who had
been alienated from each other for a
month were brought together under
peculiar and painful circumstances, and
before the services were ended a com
plete reconciliation waa effected. Tha
chief mediators in the affair were
honey bees a whole swarm of them. .
After short service at the house the
body was taken to tbe family tomb In
another part of the town. Willis Smith,
tbe rejected suitor, one of tbe pallbear
ers, rode in a carriage ahead of the!
hearse, and Misa Milly Loring, the
. woman in the case, occupied a top
buggy driven by Mr. Clark, and brought
up the rear of tha procession among
the neighbor and friends. As soon as
th tomb' was unlocked and the coffin
taken to its resting place great crowds
of angry bees swarmed out, stinging
kindred, friends and bearers, until
' everybody howled with pain. Mr.
' Clark, the roan who was escqrting Misa
Loring, jumped from his carriage and '
fled for a stream of water 20 rods away,
whereupon his horse got up a brisk
runaway right among the mourners.
The animal had made ona circuit about
the cemetery and was bolting througet
the gate for a two-mile home run, when '
it was caught by Mr. Smith, who led
it to a place of safety, and did what
he could to alleviate the distress of
Misa Loring. Meantime the men of
the party had built a fire, which
scorched th wings of the beea and
a used them to fall to the ground.
Whan Mr. Clark returned from tha
atream he found Mr.' Smith and Misa
Loring sitting side by aide applying
wet clay to their bee stings. Both wera
eating honey and talking aa if they had
always been friend. Mr. Clark took
hia horse and drove home without ask
ing any questional Of. T. Sua. .
