THE copulation

According to Official Sources No Cab-
inet Changes Impend.

INDORSEMBNT or WEYLER.

Merchants and Planters Decide, After
Great Discussion. That They. Wish
Him to Remain on the Island.

His Very Latest Edict.

MADRID, Jan. 8.—Senor Canovas del
Castillo, prime minister, personally denied
today that there was any foundation what-
ever for the reports of impending changes
in the Spanish ministry which. have been
in circulation during the last few days.
The cortes will meet in April, when im-
portant measures will be submitted by the
government.

W'eyler’s Latest Edict.

HAVANA, Jan. 8.—Captain General
Weyler has issued another edict, giving or-
ders that within a. period of eight days all
owners of estates, managers and tenants
In the provinces of Pinar del Rio, Havana
and Matanzas shall appear before the may
ors of the nearest fortified town and pre-
sent a police passport and document prov-
ing their ownership and the payment of
their last taxes. They must show the
number of hands employed by them, with
police documents to prove each. These pa-
pers being found all in order, they will be
allowed to return upon showing their cer
tificates and documents to the troops which
they pass on the way. Those who do not
comply with the above requirements must
concentrate in the towns. At the expira-
tionof the term of eight days the troops
will pass through the farms and will con
duct to the towns those not presenting the
above required certificates, and they will
be proceeded against according to instruc-
tions received.

Foreigners engaged in cultivation 01
pursuing any industry under the condi-
tions above required must prove their na-
tionality as well as show the number of
employees under their control and must
guarantee all information as to their origin
and must show their police documents un-
der the same terms as above required. An
owner of live stock must present docun
ments proving his ownership and the lo-
cation of the stock. These formalities
having been complied with, the mayor
will deliver certificates to applicants.
These certificates must be exhibited on de-
mand to troops passing after the expira-
tion of the term of eight days. The troops
will capture all stray cattle unclaimed,
and they will be brought to the towns.

Fonsdeviela Follows Suit.

Lieutenant Colonel Fonsdeviela, the
military commander of Guanabacoa, has
issued an edict complying with a decree of
General Weyler, saying that besides the
goods mentioned in the decree he prohibits
the removal of furniture, clothing, cook-
ing utensils, trunks and other domestic
effects unless provided with a special per-
mit as required in writing, 24 hours in
advance, stating the destination of the
goods.

There was a meeting at the city hall in
Guanabacoa of the committees to direct
the labor in the cultivation zone.

There was a numerously attended meet-
ing at the Spanish Casino, the gathering
being largely made up of merchants, plant-
ers, etc. There was considerable excite-
ment developed over a proposal to send a
long dispatch to the Madrid government
giving assurances of support and express-
ing regrets at the attacks made on Captain
General Weyler by the Madrid press and
asking the government to let General Wey-
ler remain here, as his presence is neces-

‘ sary for the pacification of the island. The

discussion over this preposition was hot,
and it was only after considerable opposi-
tion that it was adopted.

Err-Congressman Missing.

DALTON, Ga., Jan. 8.—There is little
doubt that Charles Dougherty,ex—congress-
man from the Second district of Florida,
has been slain in Cuba. .Reports have been
published from Cuba about the killing
there of one Charles Dougherty, an Ameri-
can citizen, who Was identified by an auto-
graph upon a gold watch found upon his
person. .

Mr. Dougherty was born near this place
and grew to manhood here. Then he
moved to Florida and was elected to con-
gress within three years. At the end of his
congressional service he returned to his old
home, leaving there last July, since which
time no word has been received from him.
Letters and telegrams sent to Daytone and
other Florida points have be‘dn returned
with the information that he is not there.
Telegrams to all parts of Florida today
have been without result. When Mr.
Dougherty left home in July, he had just
such a watch with the autograph as indi-
cated. 'He was an ardent Cuban sympa-

,thizer, often declaring his purpose to join

the insurgent army.

Gen. Luque “founded.

KEY WEST, Jan. 8. —Passengers from
Havana report that Quentin Bandera, the
insurgent leader, with his forces, was in
the town of Bejucal, near Havana. Tues~
day night and again Wednesday morning.
It is reported that General Luque, the
Spanish commander, has been wounded.

The Lake Huron Fisheries.

MONTREAL, Jan. 8.—The fisheries de-
partment at Ottawa has received informa-
tion that the Lake Huron fisheries are in
a critical condition. A number of Cana-
dian fishermen propose to leave these wa-
ters and fish in the lakes of the Rainy river
and Lake of the Woods districts, as they
cannot “ make the Lake Huron fisheries
pay. This serious depletion has arisen
from overfishing.

, Asphyxiated by Coal Gal.

LAWRENCE, Kan, Jan. s.—Isaac Van
Hoesen was found dead in his office here.
He had been asphyxiated by coal gas. He
served through the War as a captain of the
Eighteenth Missouri regiment and had
been mayor of ILawrence and president of
the chamber. of commerce. He was born
in New York in 1841.

 

Paint. Works Burned.

LANCASTER, Pa, Jan. S.—,Schroder,
Smith & Schroder’s ready mixed paint
works were entirely destroyed by fire to-
day. The origin of the fire is unknown.
The members of the firm decline to make
any estimate of the loss, but it is thought
to be fully covered by ’an insurance of
3532.150.

Ambassador Bayard's Successon.

LONDON, Jan. 8,—The Daily News ex-
presses the hope that the report that Colo-
nel John Bay is to succeed Mr. Bayard as
em bassador at the court of St. James will
prove true. “Besides his high ability,”

CHARGED WITH CRUELTY.

 

A Sea Captain Said to Have Maltreatcd
His Men. “'ho Mutlnied.

PERTH AMBOY, N. J., Jan. 7.——The
schooner Clara A. Phinney of New Bed-

' ford, Captain A. Phinney, has arrived here

from Brunswick, Ga. The crew, which
shipped at New York, charge the captain
with cruel treatment. They say that while
bound for Brunswick for a cargo of rail-
road ties to carry to Perth Amboy Captain
Phinney began to abuse them, and they
mutinied. On.arriving at Brunswick they
packed up their goods and deserted the
schooner. Captain Phinney had them ar-
rested and lodged in jail. They sought a
lawyer, and he secured a writ of habeas
corpus for each man, who was granted a
hearing. The local judge denied the valid-
ity of the proceedings and ordered the sail-
ors to be confined in jail until the schoon-
er was ready to leave port.

When the schooner was ready to sail, the
sailors say they were put on board in irons
and locked in the forecastle. When the
vessel had put to sea, they were released
and compelled by blows and kicks, they
assert, to work the schooner to Perth Am-
boy. The voyage consumed 17 days, half
of which period, they claim, they were
kept in irons and nearly starved to death.
They were put on shore hero by the cap-
tain, who said their services were required
no longer.

Each man claims that $17 is due him
from Captain Phinney. The sailors are
without money or food and are shelterless.

Captain Phinney said the men muti-
nied without cause, and any rigorous
treatment they may have received was in
the enforcement of discipline. He dis-
claims treating the men with undue se-
verity. The only money due each man, he
says, is $4. which he has deposited with
customs officials here.

HARTFORD, Jan. 7.—With simple but

Many a nervous woman sits up all the
night and tries to readherseif sleepy. Nine
to one she don’t accomplish her purpose.
Nine to one, she gets more and more ner-
vous. The slightest sound strikes terror to
her heart. The dark corners of the room
contain a. thousaud'frights. She. doesn’t
know what she is afraid of, but she is afraid,
actually, honestly, nervously, ab) ectly afraid.
Healthy women are not cowards. If a wo-
man is nervous and sleepless and afraid of;
the rustle of her'own dress, there is some-
thing the matter with her. The most deli-
cate nerves in her body are set on edge by
weakness or disease. Nine-tenths of the
nervousness, irritability and bad temper in
women is merely a symptom of ill health—-
ill health of the delicate and sensitive or-
ganism that makes her a woman. If she is
overworked, or over-worried, the efi'ect will
show itself there first. There is no use tak-
ing harmful and deadly narcotics for ner-
vousness and sleeplessness. It will leave
the body in a worse condition than itrrwas
before. The way to effect a cure is 'to cure
the cause. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip-
tion will do it. It has cured tens of thou-
sands of cases of female weakness and ner-
vousness. It is a most wonderful invigorat-
ing nervine or nerve food. It brings sound
healthy sleep and restores the glow and
bloom of health. It is the only medicine
now before the public for woman’s peculiar
ailments, adapted to her delicate or aniza-
tion by a. regularly graduated phys cian—
an experienced and skilled specialist in
these maladies. It cannot do harm in any
condition of the system. Its sales exceed
the combined sales of all other medicines
for women.

The story of its discovery and its
wonderful success is told in one part of
Doctor Pierce’s great thousand page book,
“Common Sense Medical Adviser,” which
will be sent free on receipt of 21 one-cent
stamps to pay for mailing only. World’s

An Engineering Marvel \Vhich Vo'lll Eu-
able Electric Cars to Climb the Famous
Swiss Mountain—People Mfay Rise Al-
most 14,000 Feet Above the Sea.

Thomas Commerford Martin, the
well-known electrical authority, dur-
ing his recent trip abroad, made a spe-
cial journey to Switzerland for the
purpose of inspecting some of the elec-
tric railways in the Alps, and has
brought back some hitherto unpub~
,lished data concerning the new road
to the summit of the Jungfrau. He
says concerning it:

“The building of the new electric
road to the top of the Jungfrau will
be, I think, one of the greatest engin-
eering feats of the century. I have
witnessed the beginning of the work,
and have been over most of the route
to be traversed by the electric cars,
and I must confess to a feeling of awe
when brought face to face with the

. difficulties to be OV'erCOme. One gets
but a poor idea from the published ac-
counts that havc reached this coun-
try. Think of cutting through the cone
for of some of the highest mountains

in the world, and constructing a street ,

car route up an altitude nearly 14,000
feet above sea level! This new elec-
tric road will revolutionize Alpine
travel. lnvallds can be placed aboard
the cars, and in an hour and forty min-
utes be set up on a mountain peak.
which no one but 'an experienced
mountain climber has attained. Even
the Alpine clubs approve of it. In the
future We may climb the mountain
and descend on the cars, or vice versa,
or if a climbing party be overtaken by
a severe storm the members can find
safety and civilization via the nearest
station. Alpine casualties will de-
crease.

“The difference in levels between the
terminal stations of the road will be
7,000 feet. The length of the road will
be 12 kilometres, or 71/; miles. The
fare for the round trip will be $9, or
its equivalent in francs, with the pro-
portionate reduction for passengers go-
ing only part of the way. At least 10
kilometres of the road length will, be
in tunnels, with openings at frequent
intervals, from which the tourist may
obtain momentary views of the sur-
rounding scenery. The maximum
speed of the cars on grades above 15
per cent will be five miles an hour; on
lesser grades it will be slightly in-
creased.

The motive power for operating the
road will be obtained from the gla-
ciers themselves. The waterfalls and
streams will be harnessed, and made
to operate turbines, which in their turn
will be transmitted along the length
of the road. The cars will be lighted
and heated by electricity. The last is
most necessary, as it is estimated that
the temperature of the tunnels will
range from two to ten degrees centi-
grade below zero as the summit is ap-
proached.. The great difference in
temperature of the air at the opposite
ends of the tunnel, it is believed, will
be ample to set up a circulation of air
sufficient for ventilating purposes. In
fact. it is feared the currents may be
so strong as to make it necessary to
close the portals in order to control
them properly and to avoid the en-
trance of warm, moist air from below,
which will cause the deposit of moist-
ure on the inside of'the tunnel, and
coat it with hour frost.

“The first section of the road will be
ready for traffic by next August. The
whole line will be completed in five
years. The rack rail type of road will
be employed. The track gauge will be
one metre, 'and a minimum curve of
100 metres Will be adopted. A maxi-
mum grade of 25 per cent will be the
limit, and all down grades will be
avoided whenever possible. The heav-
iest down grade (10 per cent) will be
between the Monclijock and the J ung-
fraujock. But these considerations of
engineering detail will not affect the
tourist. Even the scientist must be
impressed with the aesthetic side of
the case. To travel to such an alti~
tude in a street car; to be conveyed
into the clouds by means of the very
force which emanates from them, and

, to stand with the Alpine world at your

feet, will give you an impressive idea
of what modern engineers can do.”

Betty Green and Politics.

Hetty Green doesn’t like to hear po—

litics spoken of since her sop Eddie
failed to carry Texas. She dislikes it
as much as she detests assessments on
unprofitable enterprises. Stephen Van-
Tassel, a Democrat, and Frank M.
Buck, a Republican, both know this
now. They became embroiled” in a
heated argument on a train for Mount
Vernon yesterday. Their voices were
so loud that they attracted much at-
tention. Finally Mrs. Green went to
them and said in a tone that filled the
car: -
’ “Gentlemen, will you pardon me for
saying that the election is over? There
is a time for all things. Politics has
had its. Will you not stop talking poli-
tics until you reach home? I am not
deaf and you make me nervous.”—
New York Press. '

A .Drawback.

A writer in the short-lived New
York Tatler once said to Whistler: “It
must be delightful being an American
in London, and always getting the bet-
ter of people.” “But,” returned he,
with melancholy, “it takes them such
a long time to find it out.”

 

A Compromise.

“Tony, me husban’, bayn a I-talian,
wanted to give the baby a I-talian
name; _ but oi. av courrse. bnyn Oirish,
wanted um to have a name with a Mac

in it, so we sethlcd the matlrer boi cal— ‘
