Democrats, I‘npnlh a and Silver Ropub-
lic'ans May Oppose. Gold liepublloanl. '
WA smxaror. March L—The declaration
of Senator Dubcis in the senate Saturday,
that the Republicans could not organize
the next senate. disclosed a purpose that
has been forming for a Iusion organisation
of that body. It is the intention to have
the three parties opposed to the Republic-
ans—the Democrats, the Populists and
Silver Republicans—caucus separately and
appoint representatives to confer for the
purpose of a fusion organization. ,It will
require the support of all the factions bp-
posed to the Republicans to accomplish
this result, the Gold Democrats as well as
the Silver Democrats.
There is no purpose to organize to pre-
vent a tariff bill from being considered.
The Silver Republicans would prefer that
organization be defcrr. d until such a tariff
bill as the Republic ..us want shall be
brought before the senate and passed. It
is intimated that silver men will facilitate
the reporting of such a measure as the Re-
publicans of the committee may agree
upon. It is possible that the Silver Re-
publicans may not vote for a tarifi meas-
ure. but they could refrain from voting,
and that would pass the measure.

The Charges of Improper Church Inter-
ferenceu'ln the Canadian Elections.
_ thNTRE'AL, March 1.4—According to an
announcement made by Chevalier M. G.
A. Drolet, who has just returned from a
visit to Home, where he went at the in-
stance of the Laurier government, the pope.
has appointed a commission of cardinals
to investigate the charges against the Ca-
nadian clergy of improper interference in
the recent elections.
: The charges were prepared in detail by
Chevalier Drolet and are directed against
six Canadian bishops and archbishops and
a large number of priests. They recite in-
stances where the sacraments of. the church
were refused to Liberals and intimidation
exercised by means of threats of excom-
munication, all in the interests of the
Conservative party.
On the completion of the investigation
it is understood that the pope will name a
permanent delegate to Canada.
Chevalier Drolet declares that represent
atives of the Quebec bishops visited Rome,
and among other things spread the report
that Premier Laurier was a “Freemason
01' the worst kind, ” declaring that it would .
be'a'meritorious act to combat him with
every means at the church’s command.

Spanish Anarchists Scheme to Blow Up
the City of Havana.
HAVANA, March 1.-—The police have dis-.
covered evidence against three Spaniards
arrested here last week .on the charge of
dynamite plotting. It appears that the
city of Havana has been in danger of be-
ing blown up,- not by insurgents. but by .
these anarchists and their accomplices.
The three men are Alfonzo Noncll Bala-
a-nd .Tose Martin Maura of Pontedra.
These towns are in Spain. They were
connected with a conspiracy formed, it is
said, in Barcelona to destroy property on
the island of Cuba. .
They deny the charge in spite of letters
from well known anarchist societies in
Spain which were found in their possession
as well as- instructions how to use dyna-
mite bombs with the most destructive re-
sults.
The public executioner at Havana, Ma-
riano Llorente, undoubtedly has a satirical
vein. He has sent to General Weyler a
long memorandum of his grievances, in
which he declares that he is treated-with
scorn by other Spanish officials “without
any reasonable grounds for it.” He adds
that even the employees in the jail ap-
proach him as though he were a wild beast.“
“I am not,” he concludes, “responsiblc
for my profession, and I Would remind
your excellency that in these times the
public'executionerZis not the man who does
the most killing.”

He Makes a Dueling Proposal That Stag-
gers an Austrian Count. .
LONDON, March 1,—A story from Nice
is published, according to which society
there‘ is agitated by a scandal affecting
Arthur Barclay of Chicago and Count
Pechy, an Austrian. It appears that dur-
ing a game of baccarat at the Mediterra-
nean club a dispute arose, during which
the count remarked that ”stupid Ameri—
cans who do not understand the game
should not be allowed to play. ” The
American appears to have made retort, so
hot indeed as to have forced the committee
of the club to demand an apology from
him. . _
The gentleman from Chicago consented
to apologize to the club, but he positively
refused to apologize to the count. The
latter thereupon challenged the Chica-
goan, but his American seconds decided
that the American ought to apologize. .In
spite of this advice the American senta
personal letter to the count ofi'ering to
fight him to the death with revolvers with-
out seconds at a diistance not exceeding
ten paces, and also to make a side bet of
400 francs, the survivor to take the stakes.
The count politely refused, and Nice is now
awaiting developments." Owing to Mr.
Barclay’s refusal to apologize the commit-
tee of the Mediterranean club hasexcluded
him from its premises.
Schools and the Inauguration.
BOSTON, Feb. iii—Governor Wolcott is-

memorating the part which the common-

pany, whose claims aggregate $25,000,
against the German-American bank and
others, to set aside a transfer of certain

,COURTSHEPS OF QUEEN BESS. .
England’s Virgin Queen Bad Many Love
Affairs.
The following from the New York
Herald’s review of Hume’s book on the
courtships of Queen Elizabeth shows
how love and politics were mixed in the
sixteenth century: , »
There is nothing more amusing, in its '7
peculiar way, than a detailed account,
of the love affairs of Queen Bess. She
was one of the vainest, as well as one of _
the ablest, women that ever lived, and
while all England may be proud of her
reign, Englishmen cannot, help laugh-
ing at the love affairs which she was
everlastingly getting into, and which
her Ministers had to get her out of. She
could have married whom she would,
not because of her beauty, nor yet be-
cause of her good temper, for she had
neither the one nor the other, but be-
cause she had a throne, and pretty
nearly every noble gallant in Europe
thought he had a good chance to sit
upon it. , ”
It is probable that Elizabeth and her
Ministers really made use of the fact
that the Queen was willing to marry, if
she could discover the right person, for
politiéal purposes. It is a queer thing
to say, but it is nevertheless true, that
England really benefitted, politically,
by letting the world know that her'
Queen would accept a. good oifer from a
good quarter. _ The Queen’s hand in
marriage was a. part of tlie game which
English diplomats played a generation
and a hall. But, besides the national
benefit, Elizabeth got an immense
amount of fun out of it. She was un-
doubtedly in love several times, “but
several times more she' pretended as
love, and then in good time got rid of
her adorer.
Almost as soon as she was born, Hen-
ry entered into negotiations to marry
her to the little Duke of Angouleme,
and when she was nine years of age he
wanted to betroth her to the Duke 'of
Arron. When she was eleven an at:
tempt was made in the direction of
Philip, of Spain, who was than seven-
teen. . .
When she became Queen, some
thought the Earl of Arundel would be
the happy man, while others believed
that the Earl of Westmoreland would
be successful. “Every day there was a
new cry raised about a husband.” The
candidates were almost as numerous as
the candidates for the Presidency of the
United States'in 1896. '
Elizabeth delighted to say that. she
had no purpose to marry, but at the
same time she encouraged every eligi-
ble person to ofi'er himself. and seemed
to find a good deal of enjoyment in the
game. - .
THE LUCKY RABBIT’S FOOT.
A Jeweler Sets the Darkey’s Luck Bringer.
Gold for the Whites. ‘
A Broadway jeweler recently dis-
played in his window a number of rab—
bits’ feet. His patrons did not know .
what they were for, so he wrote on a
card, “Wear one for luck.”
It is a custom which originated with
the Southern negro. There are rabbits’
feet and rabbits’ feet. To ‘ have any
value it must be the left hind foot of a
rabbit caught in a graveyard—if beside
a new grave it is invincible—at the full
of the moon. ‘
The negroes do not bother about
mounting their treasures, but carry
them, plain in their pockets; the old
mammies often tie theirs up in their
turbans.
One rabbit’s foot was mounted very
handsomely in gold, twined with a
gold serpent, which is the emblem of
wisdom and craft, and. according to
the Egyptian custom, should be worn
over the left breast.
A much smaller one had a tiny silver
tip and was used as a. stick pin. An-
other was a watch charm.
Of course, if you or I wore a rabbit’s
foot, it is not because we are supersti-
tious; it is just a fad. When we pick
up a. pin that is pointing toward us, it
is not that we believe any nonsense
a bout its bringing us luck but-we iancy
we might need that pin before night—s

An Apology,
A man who has a reputation for be-
ing very careless as to his ‘toilet was
.lected Town Clerk in one of the small
towns in this State some time ago, and
the local paper thought it wOuld be a
good joke to announce that—
"Mr. Makeup will wash himself be-
fore he assumes the office of Town
Clerk.” ,
On reading the notice Mr. ‘Makeup
wasut'urious and demanded aretraction,
which the paper accordingly made the
following day, in this fashion:
"Mr. Makeup requests us to deny that
'he will wash himself before he assumes
the office of Town Clerk.”
And still Mr. Makeup was not
pleased. How hard it is to satiety
