the Queen Regent.

Madrid, Sept. 17. ——Toral, who surren~
ered the Spanish army at Santiago to
he Americans, arrived at Vigo from

(Santiago yesterday. A great crowd

awaited his_arrival on the pier, and
greeted the general with a storm of
hisses and abuse. The demonstration
was so violentlhat General Toral re-
turned to the ship, deciding not to land
at Vigo.

El Libral says that General Linares,
formerly governor of the province of
Santiago de Cuba, has wired Count de
Almenas as follows: ‘

“The responsibility _for our misfort-
unes is directly traceable in persons
like you, bearing titles and holding
sorts in the chamber for their own
;:nef‘:t, who imagine that they can
with impunity injure those who suffer-
<:d silently and even attempt to divert
their rewards. I, Whohonorably fought.
reply to your. accusations with dis-
dain.”

Senor Silvela. the leader of the Con-
servatives, has issued a manifesto call-
ing upon his adherents to use their ef-
forts, when peace is concluded, to place
his party'in power.

. Sagasta and his government, Silvela
declares. are entirely responsible for
the awful loss of Spanish lives, the de-
struction of the Spanish navy and the

surrender of Spanish territory.

El Liberal publishes a report of an
interview with Senor Silvela, in which
he denounces Premier Sagasta as the
cause of the latest and worst of Span-
ish‘ misfortunes. ,

Senator Sagast-a, leaving the palace
yesterday afternoon, referred to the
interview as being of no importance.
The ideas contained in it, he said, were
intended to represent his proposed ut-
terances in his undelivered speech in
the Cortes. Silvela, he said, had been
unwilling and unactive in the country’s
emergency.

Senor Sagasta said that he did not
consider ti??- distturbances at Vigo up-
on the occasion cf the arrival of Gen-
eral Toral of any importance.

The queen regent has signed the law
authorizing the cession of territory.
.Senor Leon y Castillo, Spanish am-
bassador to France, paid a farewell
yisit to the queen regent yesterday up-
'on the occasion of his return to Paris.

 

EVACUATION OF PORTO‘ RICO.

 

Formal Withdrawal of Spanish Troops
to Begin To-morrow.

San Juan, Island of Porto Rico, Sept.
17.—At their meeting Thursday the
Spanish evacuation commissioners ag-
reed to begin the formal withdrawal of
their lines within two days. They will
evacuate Laros, San Sebastian and
'Aguadilla, in the northwest of theis—
land, withdrawing toward the capital.
Under the armistice they could - not
withdraw their outposts without per-
mission.
~ Detachments of the Eleventh infan-

will occupy this territory and raise
te American flag. The abandonment
of eother outposts will follow. The Spa-
nish commissioners ufiderstand per-
fectly that the evacuation of the 1s-
lands must be in accordance with the
terms of the protocol and as soon as
transports can be provided.

Transports from the fever infected
ports of Cuba cannot, they say, be
used to convey the uninfected troops
from POI-“t0 Rico. The troops. from Cu-
ba. and Porto Ric cure to be Ilanded
at different ports in Spain. The Span-
ish authorities here cannot control the
transports in this respect. They must
await the pleasure of Madrid. Our
commissioners realize the force of this
argument and they are willing to make
reasonable concessions.

 

The Klondike Gold Fields

Montreal, Sept. 17.—Advices have
been received here to the effect that
the White Pass and Yukon Railway
will be completed within a few days
to the summit of the pass, twenty
miles from tidewater at Skaguay.

Work was begun last April and nine-
teen hundred men have been steadily
employed since. ,

The road, which is three feet gauge,
and laid with fifty-six pound rails, is
already in operation for freight traffic,
two locomotives and eight flat cars
being in operation, and there have
been shipped from Seattle three more
locomotives, ten flat cars, one baggage
car, one combination passenger and
baggage car, and one passenger coach.
These will be placed in service as soon
as they reach Skaguay.

It is proposed to extend the road to
Fort Selkirk, a distance of 380 miles
from Skaguay.

Don't Like. Co‘o 'ed l'aymasters.

Washington, Sept. 17.—The war .ie-
partment is still considering that color
line in the pay department of the army.
There are two colored paymasters in
the volunteer staff. One is R.
Wright, who has his son, R. R. Wrigh ,
Jr., as his clerk, and the other is John
R. Lynch, the ex-representative from
Mississippi.

There is much opposition to both offi-
cers among southern troops, and when
Lynch was assigned to pay the Sec-
ond Texas volunteer infantry, about a
month ago, the men refused to receive
the money from him. .

Since that time the troops-of the re -
iment have not been paid and there 1: e
matter stands.

 

American Missions Attacked. ‘

London, Sept. 17.—The Shanghai cor-
respondent of the Daily News says re-
ports have been received there of seri-
fifty miles
from Chung- -Kiang. The American and
French missions have been attacked
and the latter burned.

the White House yesterday.

Itris supposed that he’ivas sént for
by the president with a view to con-
sidering some questions in connection
with the appointment of an ambassador

On their recent journey from the camp
at Chickamauga, died yesterday at his
home, No. 945 Railroad avenue, from
malignant typhoid». fever. He was 27
years old and had been a member;- of
the Eighth for two years.

He was formerly a Red Cross nurse,
and on going into active service was
assigned to the hospital corps. Exag-
gerated reports of the condition of the
Eighth’s men in his charge were sent
out during the progress of the de-
tachment from Chickamauga, but on
arrival here it was found that none
was dead; since then most of the men
have recovered, and Dr. Lindheim’s
death is the first to occur.

Children’s Meals. '

Parents who desire to see their chil-
dren grow up strong and free-from dis-
ease, should be, most particular in what
they give them to eat, and should be
sure that sufficient is prepared for
them. Three . good meals daily are
needed for growing children, and al-
though it is not good for them to be
always eating, there are cases where
the three meals. are not sufficient. For

to prepare, or have to practice music,
or to do anything else before the break-
fast hour, tmy should not be allowed
to work mil-pg; a little milk and a.
piece of bread or a biscuit should be
given them- Where children have to
attend a day-school, eight o’clock is a.
good hour for breakfast, as ample time
should be given them to make a hearty
meal, in order to fit them for the work
of the morning. Porridge is an excel-
lent beginning for breakfast. It may
be prepared the day before, and just
made hot when it is to be eaten, and it
is really better than when made to be
eaten at once. Bread and milk is
nourishing; bread and butter, cocoa, or
hot milk, with bacon, home-made pot-
ted meat, fish, eggs, golden syrup. stew-
ed apples, or other fruit, fresh currents,
or gooseberries,
had, jam, honey, or marmalade, an? all
things that are wholesome and suitable
for breakfast for girls or boys. What
they'like best should be provided, as it
is 'of so much importance to take a
good breakfast.

 

_ ....

The Ideal Am.

A perfect arm should measure from
wrist to armpit just twice the length
of the hand. The upper part of arm
should be full and well rounded, with
a. dimple at the elbow. The forearm
must not be flat, and from a. well-
moulded shoulder the entire arm
should taper in. long graceful curves
to a well-rounded wrist. It is better
to have an arm that harmonises. even
if the parts do not confirm to the
generally accepted lines. For. in-
stance, a full, round upper arm which
is joined to 'a flat or thin forearm has
a very bad effect. Perhaps it is only
a little worse, however, than a grace-
ful, well-moulded fore-arm tacked on a
thin, scrawny upper arm. .Correct—
ness of form is not the only thing nec-
essary for a good arm. The owner
must possess the power .of expression
with her arms. Cpaniards, the Irish
and Italians show the most expression
in their arms, and much more lies in
the faculty of arm expression than is
generally supposed.

M Baked Asparagus.

Asparagus, either fresh or canned.
may be baked like macaronl or spag-
hetti. It is boiled first until tender.
After draining it is laid in an oval
baking-dish;- alternating in layers with
a rich sauce made of flour and butter,
and a cup of hot water to which has
been added half a cup of cream, the
yolks of two eggs, and a gill of grated
Parmesan cheese. This sauce, which
is made ready in a double boiler while
the arparagus is cooling, covers the
Vegetable in the dish as a last layer
except for-some cracker crumbs mixed
with a little butter. When it is ready,
place it in the oven long enough to
brown. While, as a rule, the whole
asparagus is put into the dish in lay-
ers as it is in the bunch, 'the tender
part of the stalks all one way, it
may also be prepared from tops alone
or from the half stalks that are usu-
ally eaten.

The Popular PlainmSErfi.

In spite of the fact that all sorts and
conditions of skirt decorations, dra-
peries, overdresses, and overskirt ef-.
fects, both long. and short, produced by
countless methods of arranging frills,
pipings. ribbons, gimps, etc., have
been developed, there will be a rather
general adherence or return next sea-
son to the plain, perfectly hung and
simply trimmed tailor skirt. These
complicated and fussy furbelovvs and
other cut-up decorations are effective
and appropriate on airy summer tex-
tiles. As for cloth, heavy silk, bro-
cade, satin,.a~nd all‘other weighty or
protective materials, the plainer they
are made, the richer and better they
look, and the less garnishing do they
require.

 

The Patriotic Craze.

The patriotic accessories introduced
early in the season have been taken up
with great enthusiasm, not only by the
million, but by the elect four hundred. ,
Old Glory- effects are rampant at the
most fashionable watering places. Sol-
dier caps are worn by cyclers, yachts-
menfiand golfers; gilded eagle-stamp-
ed buttons trim blouses, jackets, bath—
ing suits, and costumes of army and
navy blue serge. Red, white and blue
hat trimmings are universal; the tri-
oolors appear on both day\ and even-
mg gowns, and even belts, sashes,
bows, neckties, scarfs and parasols
show the brilliant national colors.

 

Summer Styleu.

All skirts are lengthened even fa.
street wear, and every fashionable
gown at all dressy in style has at least
a demi-train. Most of the long skirts
are cut this year to hang very grace-
fully, an'dsome of the newest French
models have front and side breadths
long enough to allow of a ve17 slight
drapery on each side, just back of the
Pink and gray, separately or in

ites among summer colors, these rival-
ling the melange of green and white,
and black and white, on both day
gowns and evening toilets:

 

‘ Lace Yokes. .
7 The lace yokes on some of the hand-
some hot-weather evening toilets are

shaped deepest on the sides, meeting!

under the arms, and are either curved
or pointed upwaid to shorten them ex-
actly tin the centre of the yoke front
and back. .
