Washington, April 21.—-Spain has refused to accept President McKin ley’s ultimatum, given our minister, Woodford, his passport, which means that all pretensions of friendliness is ended and war is looked. Famson’s licet has been ordered to move on Ha vana immediately. A naval battle is expected hourly. Great excitement prevails here. The Spanish fleet is sDll at Cape Verde island. The entir? United States army has been Ordered to the coast, to br distrib uted at Tampa, Mobile and New Or leans. The entire garrison at Fort McPher son, near Atlanta, left for Charlston, Pensacola and other'Florida points Saturday. Gen. Miles, commander ol the] Army will make Atlanta his headquarters until the hostilities require his pres ence near the scene of action. The London papers lean, toward America in the Cuban problem, and England will decline to take part in any movement against us. Europe will not take up the ques tion of mediation again, and the opin ion prevails that war cannot now be averted unless-Spain evacuates Cuba. Spaniards arc returning to their country from all parts of the world. CASTOniA. “A word to the wise is sufficient” and a word from the wise should be sufficent, but you ask, who are the wise?

Go, lay it away forever * In the swfcet, dead loaves of the rose, With the fun and the fairy slippers, The gloves and the silken hose, The bodice, too, that wus lit ted To her girlish and graceful whapo, And, heavy with frosty fringes, The long, white opera cape. For Madge, she is done with dancing And the pleasures and pains of life. No babe shall call her mother And no man call her wife, For below in the darkened parlor, With her slender feet unshod, She lies in a couch of lilies. All dressed for the court of God. —Minna Irvlnj, Weak Lungs If you have coughed and coughed until the lining mem brane of your throat and lungs is inflated, ScoUAs Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil will soothe, strengthen and probably cure.
