GIBRALTAR NOT I>l PREGNABLE. its Possession May Weaken Great Britain In the Event of War. Gibraltar Letter to Philadelphia Lodger. If war breaks out Gibraltar is the elec tric bell of Europe, arid the button will be pressed in Downing street. Gibraltar is a ganglion of imperial nerves. At the western confine of the inland sea Its pos session has long been held to be equiva lent to the command of the straits. Since gunnery improved so as to diminish the vnlue of the rock as a fortress its im portance as protection to the pew harbor and the British fleet has been immensely enhanced. Not long ago. after the Span ish-American war, the Spaniards, at the instigation and cost of the French gov ernment. commenced the preparation of earthworks and the mounting of heavy guns near the town of Algeciras and the hill known as the Queen of Spain’s Chair. Our foreign office was induced to protest against these works and to accompany its protest with a declaration that their con tinuance would be regarded by Her Maj esty’s government as “an unfriendly act,” a form of words found to be quite effica cious in the Fashoda difficulty. Their was found to be equally efficacious in the present instance. The Spanish earth works were abandoned for a time; but when Armageddon 1h announced by the big guns above’ Europa points there is no doubt that the Spaniards and the French if allied, will make things uncommonly hot for the garrison of Gibraltar and the Mediterranean fleet. With only 5,000 men quartered here, the British could not seize the salient points of the attack except by dispatching men from England. In the meantime France, occupying interior lines, could dispatch 100,000 men for the purpose of holding the right positions from which to bombard the British fleet. This contingency renders the neutrality of Spain a most important consideration for England. Wooed by two suitors, and exhausted by her recent struggle with America, Spain wants rest and peace, but unhappily for England she is inclined rather to favor France than to maintain a benevolent neutrality. In the first place all Spaniards resent most keenly Lord Salisbury’s recent quip about the “dying nations.” Then again, Spain is the an cestral home of a peculiarly intense form of ultramonianism and Roman Cath olic antipithy to the chief Protestant Power in Europe has grown by leaps and bounds in these latter days. On the other hand, France is munching at the desert side ol' Morocco, for the reversion of which Spain hag long nourished ambi tions. With France at the gates of Ceuta and Tangiers, Spain would be even less considerable than she now is. Hence the hesitation of the Madrid authorities to throw themselves into the arms of France, for they are reminded that of old when England wag hostile to Spain she did ill when the two were allied or friendly prosperity hovered over Aragon and Cas tile. Yes, it is highly impotant for Eng land to keep friends with Spain. When the inevitable war with France breaks out. benevolent neutrality with Spain would make all the difference whether the fighting at sea was made easy for the British or intolerably difficult. Our am bassador at Madrid. Sir Drummond Woolf. Is an able man, but an invalid. He is of Jewish extraction, and neither his energies nor his diplomatic achievements are such as to render retention of the present post desirable in any interests, but those of the French. It is of the utmost moment that the British and American represen tatives at Madrid should be efficient and capable diplomatists, if not distinguished men. The stable government of Gibraltar proves inconveniently attractive to Span ish subjects. In time of war the feeding of the 25,000 civilian inhabitants of the rock is likely to present a problem bristling with difficulties. SNAKES IX IRELAND. Recent Visitor Investigates n Story That One Hud Been Seen There Recently—l ntrue. From the New York Sun. "Since the days when St. Patrick is al leged to have banished the snakes and toads from Ireland," said a naturalized citizen from the north of Ireland, who has just returned from a visit to the land of his birth “neither snake nor toad, as far as history and legends show, has ever been seen in the land of saints outside of a menagerie. I investigated several plaus ible stories of snakes being seen in Ire land, while I was there, but every time the snake turned out to be either wholly imaginary or to be something else which the excited beholder had taken for a snake. I never found any one who, on being pinned down to facts, could say he ever paw a snake or toad in Ireland, and I have traveled through every part of the Island. “During my last visit to Ireland I was in County Antrim for about a week and at that time there was a story going the rounds to the effect that a farmer named McCann had discovered a snake right in the center of St. Patrick’s bishopric. The story as it tvas told to me first iseemed truthful. The description of the aiieged snake was that it was about four feet long, that it had flaming eyes and a forked tongue and hissed just the same as any regular ordinary snake would do. McCann was supposed to have discovered the snake when walking along the road from Ballymena to Galgorm, the latter being a village town two miles from Bally mena, the market town of County A'ntrim, The place where McCann was said to have seen it was within sight of Slemish Mountain at the foot of which the good saint herded pigs for an Ulster chieftain vho sold him and made him a slave. That was when he took the famous step from Slemksh to Skerry, another mountain two miles from Slemish, which he W'as recorded to have taken when he escaped from slavery and began to preach to the heathen Irish. “The place is full of legends about St. Patrick and I thought It too bad that a snake should appear in such a spot. About a dozen people told me the etory and they all told it the same way. so I con cluded it must be true. McCann was a respectable man of sober habits and there fore not likely to be deceived by the snake associated with the ‘d. t’s.* The farmer was corroborated by a boy who was with him at the time. Both euld the snake had vanished in a hole in a ‘ditch,’ os the mounds of earth and stones in which hedgerows along the road are planted, are called. They had seen snakes in menageries and knew what they were. “I started an investigation of the story, all ihe same, and after a good deal of pa tient work I discovered that the alleged snake was a strav cat which had been hinted by boys and worried by dogs until it was mad with hole, its eves flaming, when McCann and the boy passed and spat at them as angry cats do, when they came near. The spit ting they took for the hissing of the snake and the rat rnn into the hole so quickly that they had no time to see what It was. Pussy was dug out afterword, half starv- Tried Friends Best.

CAT ARM Catarrh has become such a common disease that a person entirely free from this disgusting complaint is seldom met with. It is customary to speak, of Catarrh as nothing more serious than a bad cold, a simple inflammation of the nose and throat. It is, in fact, a complicated and very dangerous disease ; if not at first, it very soon becomes so.

Somehow this, the true version of the story, was /lover circulated and peop e thtre still believe that Mc fann saw a snake. “One time an American who was visit ing Ireland before I came to this country told mo he knew' of a field in which there were snakes. I told him he was talking nensen e, but he insisted that h 1 wjs light. He undertook to take me to the field and when we reached it he pointed triumphantly to a sign at the gate w th the w-'rds “Snakes set here.’ In another field about a rod or two away, there was a similar sign but with a different spell ing. It said, ‘Sneaks set here.’ “I explained to him that these snakes were bars of iron set on a pivot just be low the surface of the ground, to keep people fom trespassing. If you stepped on the c. end the affair turned round and the other end hit you in the face. They were sometimes planted where seed was fieshly sown, but as often as not the sign was a bluff to scare pear le away. You n-ver saw a more disgusted man in your life than my friends when he found the kind of snakes there were in the field. % “I don’t believe ihere is a snake In all Ireland, but as there are plenty of snakes in both Scotland and England, especially In Sco:land, 1 am forced to the belief in the legend that St. Patrick banished all the snakes and toads. If he had not ban ished them why were there never any snakes or toads seen there? This idea may seem ridiculous, but if th re is a better explanation of the problem I would like to hear it.” SA.H JONES SCORED. Evaitfeeliat Stroune Taken His Place And Makes Hot Talk. From the Philadelphia Ledger. National Park, Aug. 6.—The delay in the transmission of a letter from Sam Jones to the National Park Camp Meet ing Association prevented the arrival of tho noted evangelist at the opening ser vice of the camp to-night, resulting in great disappointment to a crowd of sev eral hundred people, the greater number of whom hod come from Philadelphia to hear the orator-evangelist. Mr. Jones had written that he would reach Philadelphia at 7 o’clock to-night, and asked that someone be on hand to meet him and direct him to the Park Unfortunately, the letter did not reach here until to-night, and in consequence, when Sam arrived (if he did) no one was there to meet him, and the camp meet ing managers are wondering if he made an attempt to reach here and got lost in the woods. The camp, nevertheless, was opened.* but was very dreary until Evangelist Clar ence Strouee, termed a second instalment of Sam Jones, owing to his former associ ation with the evangelist, was introduced. Mr. Strouse spoke on “What Came Ye Here to See?” and said he never saw such an ugly, disappointed crowd in his life, and he was surprised, a it indicated that they had come to wonship Sam Jones and nqt Christ. “Your thought® are only partly on this service,” he said. “You’re listening in the woods for Sam Jones, and if fin owl was to fall through a tree you would swear it was Jones. I’m just as good a preacher as Sam Jones. Some people don’t think so; neither does Jonet?, but that mokes nc difference. All you want to see i Sam Jones. You know it, and God help you to wake up and get some sense. Why, if you people ate depending on Sim Jones for the success of this camp, you’re, going to have the biggest ’bust’ that ever hap pened to a camp in New Jersey. “Just you keep on depending, and you’ll go to hell. Brace up! Look pretty—that is, as pretty as you can, beeauee some of you are not very good looking at your best.” Mr. Strouae then made n plain gospel talk, and one person professed conversion. Dr. John Handley of Camden; Rev. John W. Davis of Philadelphia; Dr. Jesse R. Thompson and Dr. William P. Davis also participated in the service. MRS. WU IN THE SURF.
