'''' ..... 7 . T HE EV E E 1E G GA II' THANNIS TAYLOR ON CUBA. lie ,Declares that the Island Is Lost to 8111119 Forever. Ithaca. Nov. 20.—Hannis Taylor, for- mer Minister to Spain, delivered a pub- lic address on Cuba at Cornell Univer- sity last night. He was introduced by President Schurman. He spoke at length on the Spanish system of ruling their colonies and discussed the present status of the Cuban situation. He re- ferred to President McKinley’s position in the following words: ’ "I regard the Presidency of the Unit- ed States as one of the noblest of hu- nnan institutions, and the first duty of every citizen is to render perfect per- sonal respect to its incumbent, regard- less. of the question of party. We should be thankful that at this critical moment in our diplomatic history the uiiremicn of our foreign affairs is in the hands of aconservative, experienced and patriotic Chief Magistrate, who, by his conduct in peace and war, has won the right to the confidence of us all. Our foreign policy should rest upon a purely non-partisan basis. When the moral dignity of the nation as a whole is involved in its relations with foreign nations, all party' differences should stop with theshore. We should then only remember that we are all Ameri- cans. If we regard the President's atti- tude to Cuban affairs from that point of view we cannot fail to perceive that *he is 'now doing his entire patriotic dry. "it the President makes the fatal mistake of attempting to longer muzzle (ongress by putting his imprimatur 7 )on false hopes and empty illusions, refore the ink is dry upon his message events will discredit all his predictions. I therefore do not believe that he will attempt a policy so dangerous to his personal fortunes and so contrary to the business interests of the country, that now demands a prompt and peace- ful solution of a crisis that hangs like a pall upon our reviving prosperity. “The President owes it to himself and to the country to submit the whole question, without prejudice and in an impartial spirit, to Congress, the body to which it rightfully and constitution- ally belongs. Congress knows all the facts of the case and can deal with them without any diplomatic embar- rassments whatever. It can recognize beliigerency, or it may cut the Gordion knot once and for all by a prompt rec- ognition of Cuban independence. I have been profoundly impressed by the re- view recently made of the Cuban situa-, tion by that wise and experienced dip- lomat, ex—Judge Lambert Tree, of Chi- cago. He affirms that the wisest course now is to recognize independence, and correctly asserts that such an act upon our part would give Spain no right to declare war upon us. Under the law of the nations it would not be a causus belli. I agree with him in that con-clu- sion and in his further statement of the belief that she would not attempt such an impossible enterprise as a war with us.” - Mr. Taylor concluded by saying: “Let Congress but speak the final and em- phatic word—recognition—and in ninety days the long and bloody tragedy will be over; the whole Christian world will rejoice and say amen; Spain will be rescued from an impossible situation; there will be no war with the United States, and Cuba will be free." THE BIG GAME TO-DAY. Lust Important Football Day of the Year. New York, Nov. 20,—This is really the last important football day of the year, althoughseveral attractive games will be played on Thanksgiving day. But the big elevens really wind up their heavy schedule this afternoon with what will probably be the best sport of the year. Primarily the Princeton-Yale match , at New Haven will attract the bulk of the public's attention. This game has of late years been played in this city, but it got to be such an immense out- ing that the college interfered, and it was decided hereafter to play it on col- lege grounds. Next in importance is the Harvard- Pennsylvania game at Philadelphia. The failure of the crimson to defeat Yale has made this contest particularly interesting, as the Quakers have what is thought to be'I-the strongest eleven in the country, barring Princeton. If by chance Harvard should win from Pennsylvania and Princeton _ and Princeton should defeat Yale, the sea— son would end with the Tigers having a just claim on the football champion- ship. But if Pennsylvania and Princeton both win there will be the same unsat- isfactory state of affairs that has ex- isted since relations with Pennsylvania were severed by both Yale and Prince- ton in 1894. Hypnotlsm Cures a Girl. Gloversville, N. Y., Nov. 20.—.I.da Steele, a pretty 16-year-old girl, has been cured of a serious attack of hic- coughs by hypnotism. At intervals in the last six years she has suffered frequently from the same cause, but the last attack was the worst of all. Every known remedy was tried by Dr. A. C. Hagadorn, but with— out success. As a last resort he decided to try hypnotism. , Dr. F. J. Rush, a dentist, who has made a study of hypnotism, was called in. He placed the girl in a hypnotic state, and she was soon quietly resting after several days of constant suffer- ing. \Vhen she came out of her sleep the hiccoughs had disappeared entirely. and to-day she is not troubled with them. ' 1 Georgia May Forbid Football. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 20.—-Gov. Atkinson has before him the Anti-Football bill, which has passed bothHouses. Its pro- visions make participation in a game of football at which an admission fee is charged a misdemeanor. The Governor will probably sign it, but he has several days yet in which to consider it. He is urged to sign it ‘by the authorities of colleges which are rivals of the State University and by church bodies. Mrs. Gammon, the mother of the boy Whose death caused the introduction of the bill, insists that it is unwise. W'ants to Succeed Gorman. Baltimore, ,Nov. 20,—Gov. Lowndes has become a prominent candidate for the United States Senate, to succeed Senator German. Senator Wellington will to-day take active charge of the Governor’s campaign. Gov. Lownde-s' friends assert that , their candidate, by a. judicious exercise of his admitted power, can easily con- 4 trot votes enough for the caucus to give him the nomination. _ JIIBILITIIIII. Many Norwalk‘ People Give EspreSSion to it and with _ Good Results. The remarkable cures accomplished in N orwalk during the last seven months are- something to astonish and convince the most skeptical. ' N 0 won- der the people believe in it; no wonder a prominent druggist lately said: "Be- lief in California Catarrh Cure is an article of faith in the Norwalks, be- cause people know for themselves, with- out regard to what- any interested par- ties say, of cures it has wrought among their friends and neighbors.” Why I People have suffered for years and never dreamed they could get any relief by using anything and some day a friend says: Cure cured me, it will cure you, and you won’t have to wait to find out about it either. It relieves at once.” Here are the words of one of our neighbors now, telling wh y she believes in it. You know that it is true because you know her. Mrs. John Lycett, 21 High street, Norwalk, says: “My daughter, Violet, has been troubled since childhood with catarrh, until her Whole head seemed more or less diseased. She had be- ‘ gun to be a. little deaf, and suffered much with severe headaches so that we have had to keep her out. of school a good deal. I sent her to Plaisted’s drug store, South Norwalk after a bottle of California Catarrh Cure and she commenced using it. Its beneficial effects have been simply wonderful. ' It has helped her from the first. in every way. I have not heard her complain of a headache for a long time, and by the time she had finished her first bottle, I feel confident that she will be cured.” When California Catrrrh Cure, is used colds never “hang on,” but disap- pear promptly. For all mucous dis- eases. All dealers, 50 cents, three times as much, one dollar. “California Cata'rrh . ABOUT MRS. LEASE’S HUSBAND. A Good Man in His Day and His Day is Not Ended Yet. Anent the slurs recently cast at Mrs Lease, it, is not generally known that her husband is a man who has not only the willingness to fight when oc- casion requires it, but who has the requisite brawn to do battle to a suc— cessful conclusion. Charlie Lease was a mighty good man in his day, and his day has not ended yet. He has had only about two fights in the last tcr years, and unless somebody who doesn’t know nim runs up against him he won’t have a fight in the next ten years. The following instance will illus. trate Mr. Lease’s make up to a dot: He was a salesman in the wholesale drugstore of Ben Aldrich. One day a bully, who wanted to start a joint in a neighboring town, came in to buy some drugs to put in front. He was a mean chap and swore at Mr. Lease fre- quently and applied disgraceful epi- thets to him repeatedly. Mr. Lease smiled and treated his customer with the utmost affability all the time. In due time the sale was made, the goods loaded on a dray and carted away. Mr. Lease took the money from his cus- tomer, gave him the change and thank- ed him most kindly for his patronage. As the fellow went out on the side- walk Mr. Lease followed and hailed him. “What’s the matter?” said the bully roughly, “isn’t everything set- tled?” “Not quite 3.11,”,said Charlie, - “we haven’t yet settled for those names you called me," and so saying, he mopped up the sidewalk and half a block of the gutter with his custom- or. Saturday night, when the store was. about to be closed, a. cash boy told Mr. Lease that he was wanted at the desk of Mr. Aldrich. He thought sure that his cake was dough, but when Ben Aldrich said “Charlie, your wages are increased $5 a week,” he felt better toward himself and the world, and- even the man he licked.~——Kansaa City Times.
