The Pta« of the United States Will be
Railed Over Cuba-
Washington, Oot. 25.-—At the cabi
net meeting today the president in
formed bit advisers that the alate de
partment had notified Spanish author
{ties that the flag of the United States
would be raised over Cuba on January
1, and our absolute protectorate over
the island would begin ol that dale
He stated that this did not mean
that the process of evacuation would
not until that time, nor the oc
cupation of the island by our troops
be postponed, as some supposed.
He informed the cabinet that the
work of sending away Spanish troops
and placing our soldiers in occupation
would go along as originally intended,
and as each town or province was
evacuated by the Spanish our tro ips
would take possession. The change
only meant giving the Spaniards one
month longer in which to get away
all their troops

* Only Victoria s Veto Will Prevent
War Between England and France.
„ London, Oct. 25—If one should
. judge by the London papers, war be
. tween England and France is a ques
tion of only a lew hours, and it most
i be admitted that tbe English public
r opinion as a whole, inclines to tbe
r same view
Tbe impression is quit*, general that (
i matters have reached a point where <
I only the inu-rveution veto of Queen
Victoria can avert war. x <
( This point ia w idely discussed today,
and tbe sovereign power to thwart tbe I
will <>f the people is openly questioned.
, Any sign of weakness or even a .
move of conciliation at present by
Lord Salisbury would arouse a storm
which would speedily work his politi
cal destruction. Moreover, more than i
one member of the cabinet favors war ]
with France now. i
It ia a fact that Colonial Secretary
Chamber'ain recently said openly: (
‘ War with France is inevitable be- 1
fore long. For my part, I believe the 1
sooner it cornea tbe better for this
country."
On the other hand, France doesn't t
want, or expect war. \
She is almost indifferent regarding' t
Fashoda j
II France was a sane country. sane« 1
ly governed the crisis would speedily r
end. ®
The existing government hardly ex- ,
pecta to outlast the week.
If one knew who would govern (
France next week it would, perhaps,
be possible to estimate the probable s
course of the quarrel c
A highly important factor is the at
titude of Russia. She wants monarchy ‘
in France, <
It is reported that Russia would not
give France more than her moral sup
port if war comes.
A report today in Paris is that Eng- t
land will not permit France to even v
save her face in making a retreat,
which ia tbe only solution of the crisis 81
except war. ■ „ n
The taxes* suggestion ib, meretore, *-
that war can be averted by the present g
cabinet conceding the British claims
as tbeir last official aot, when the over
throw of tbe chamber of deputies is e
seen to be inevitable, j

Tbe Melancholy of Paderewski's Life- i
Under the title of a“A Polish Fan- 1
tasy" Mrs. Hermann Kotzachmar, in
j the November Lsdies’ Home Journal,
writes most interestingly of Pader
ewski—in fact, she gives a biography
of the early career of tbe famous pian
i ist, in which tragedy, romance and
. pathos play conspicuous parts. She
. tells of Paderewski’s courtship and
marriage, of his extreme poverty, of
[ his wife’s great devotion and supreme
belief that lie would rise to distinetion
r in the musical world, and of ber
pathetic death, leaving, an ’n fant to
c bis care. One reading the stoiy can
readily account lor tbe melancholy
that has c >me into tbe great pianist's
life. Never before have these chapters
t of Paderewski’s life been given to the
public, and they will be read with the
keenest interest. They surely attest
the veracity of the venerable adage:
e "Truth is stranger than fiction ”

Kentucky “Bvrzoo.”
The origin of Kentucky burgoo is at
last discovered, and the Blue Grass State
can no longer claim it as its own culinary
inspiration.
There is a Spanish dish called oils po
drida—"a little of everything’’—which is
an absolute necessity of life to every Span
iard used to even comparative luxury of
diet. The method of preparing Kentucky
burgoo has been frequently described.
Any one who has read it will in
stantly recognize the existence of the same
culinary theory in the preparation of olla
podrida, which ia described as follows by
the cook who made It for Admiral Cer
vera at Annapolis:
"A half quart of chick peas previously
soaked in water for a few hours, a couple
of carrots, some chirizos (Spanish red
sausages), long pepper, a clove or two of
garlic, an onion, a bunch of parsley, a
dozen heads of lettuoe, a oolewort or two,
tomatoes, a slicq of gourd and any other
old vegetable. These to be cut up and put
into stock pot with a half dozen pounds
or so of brisket of beet, the knuokle end
of a leg of mutton, half a pound of
smoked streaky bacon, a few siloes of ham
and lastly a fowL These to be well cov
ered with water and the liquid carefully
skimmed, and, after It has boiled, allowed
to simmer for the short space of six
hours.”—Cincinnati Enquirer.

Negroes in the south have a habit of
‘sticking matches, toothpicks and ciga
rettes behind their ears, and it is a com
mon thing to see one of them, when
asked for a match, pull one of them out
of the cloeely kinked wool just over his
ear. Frequently they have a dooen or
more stowed away there. Not long ago
an Atlanta policeman, whose beat in
cludes “Rusty row," a favorite resort
for idle negroes, had occasion to arrest
a notorious vagrant, whose main occu
pation was fighting and draining the
beer kegs left in front of barrooms.
This man, as usual, resisted arrest
and attacked the officer fiercely. The
officer saw that extreme measures were
necessary and, drawing his dub, aimed
• blow at the negro’s head. The result
was as alarming as it was unexpected.
As the club came in contact with tbe
man’s head, just over the left ear, there
was a cracking sound, and from the hair
tongues of blue, sulphurous flame shot
out. Tbe negro dropped to the ground,
and the clnb fell from the officer’s
nerveless hand, while a look of wild
eyed amazement appeared on his coun
tenance.
He had hit people with the same club
before—in fact, rather frequently—and
blood had sometimes followed the blows,
but never before had they drawn flame
and smoke. He was about to leave the
place hurriedly, not knowing what he
had done, when his victim sat up and
said reproachfully: "Go way, man I
Yon done splode all my matches and
swinge my ha’r offen my haid." The
