OH JAIUARY FIRST 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 f With the Atlanta Journal- It will interest the many Griffin friends of Mr. R iyal Daniel to know that be has resigned bis- position »s night city editor of the Atlanta Con stitution, to accept a position on the Stag 1 pf the Journal.

RELATIONS VERT STRAINED. * 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.

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 ” OJL»TORIA. w * Bsmtls yy The Kind Von HIW Klwijr fafk 0 fligMtaw > —e ii— Cheep Bates to Atlanta and Bsturn.

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.

BRUTAL CLUBBING. A Blow That Knoekod Eire and Smoko a w - • »v-- di JU TO HA A ElMMla 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."
