O’SH AUGH NEBBY.
Nelson O’HhftußhneHsy citing to hit*
undesirable position in tin* City of
Mexico in charge of the affairs of the
United States until Mr. Huerta In
formed him that he was persona Ron
grata and handed him his paasports,
which was a polite hint that his pres
ence is no longer desired.
Until he assumed tin* reeponalblll
lies of charge d’affaires in Mexico a
few months ago. O’Bhaughnesay was
more for his appreciation of the
social amenities and his tact than for
any peculiar diplomatic ability. As a
matter of fact, he never had much ex
perience as a diplomatic agent, ns his
duties at the various legations and
embassies to which ho*has been at
tached since he entered The diplomat it
service in IRO4 have strictly
too la] than otherwise
Thero is one thing which can b*
said about O’Shaugtinesay, however, on
the word of his superiors, which is
that he has risen to tin* occasion that
was thrust upon him by the recall of
Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson, and
has carried himself through a difficult
situntlon with the utmost tact and
without making a single personal
cnetny.
In speaking of O’Hhaughnessy. ills
triends naturally speak of his wife,
too. Mrs. O'Bhaughtieaay is a re
msrkahly handsome woman, with the
social Instinct Just as strongly devel
oped as it is In her husband, and,
moreover, she is a woman of great
force of character. Everyone says that
she has been of great assistance to
him in his diplomatic career.
O’Hhaughnoosy was horn in New
York 37 years ago. He was educated
by private tutors and at Georgetown
University in Washington und at Ox
ford University In England. He studied
International law in London and lan
guages in various European countries.
He wss appointed secretary to the
legation at Copenhagen In 1904, and
was made third secretary at the em
bassy at Berlin in the following year.
In 1907 he was transferred to Vienna
as second secretary of the embassy,
and In 191 L was sent to Mexico, also,
as second secretary.
It is not generally known, hut
O’fcthaughnessy did not like Mexico.
He much preferred the capitals <*f
Europe, and he hss several times ap
plied for a transfer, but, of course,
when Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson
was withdrawn and O'Hhaughnessy
wss placed In charge he gave up all
thought of going hark to Europe and
settled down to make the best of a
bad situation.
Like most of the younger men in
the diplomatic corps, *t'Hhaughnessy
has at times felt the strain upon his
purse to keep up with the procession,
and at the time of his transfer from
Vienna to Mexico City he received a
good deal of unenviable publicity
through the publication of certain un
paid accounts with tailors and other
tradeamen In the Austria! capital. The
tailor's bill, which included numerous
fancy silk waistcoats and an innumer
able number of pairs of trousera was
seat to the state department for col
lection and thus gained wide clrcuia
lion. It Is understood that he settled
in full with his creditors.
YOUNG FARMERS

Facta ere frequently published in the
newspapers which point to a remarks
lit growth of sentiment that agricul

ably familiar with the subject of boys*

states of the south and west, but in
the stress and mass of other news
which finds its place on the printed

Stormy Scenes in Congress
Preceded the War with Spain
Orderly Procedure in Mexican Trouble Contrasts with Action
of 1898, When Country For Many Weeks Had
Been at Fever Heat.
lu sharp contrast to Vhe orderly,
manner in which congress has moved
toward intervention in Mexico were
the stormy scenes which attended Its
deliberations during that other April,
In ISSN when the United States
verging on war with Spain.
Then, although the formal proceed
lugs were identical with the ones
which Hint the Atlantic fleet to Tam
Pico and Vera Cruz, the country was
burning with mllltiarlsm that de
roanded spectacular measures.
President McKinley’s .reluctance to!
[ plunge this country Into a war, his,
delay In sending to congress the mes
F.egc that meant nrrne:i Intervention ■
In Cuba and the interlerenee of foi
elgn powers with offers of mediation,
served as Irritants to an already res
tive congress, hearkening to the mood
of the people.
From the m irntng of February 16th,
when the first news of the destruc
tion of the battleship Maine In the
harbor o' Havana was sent around ths
world ther.- had been a succession
o Tlnflnmmatory speeches In congress
The beginning of April marked the
climax, and It became apparent that
/only the evacuation of Cuba by Spain
could prevent a war with this coun
try. It was not until April 19tb. how
ever, that congress finally adopted the
resolution empowering the president
to use the military and naval force to
drive the Spaniards from the Island
After thn’ events moved with start
ling rapidity, and almost before war
had been formally declared Sampson
was at Havana and Dewey at Manila
Action Was Long Delayed.
President McKlnle announced on
April Ist that he would send a mes
sage to congress on the fitll of that
month, asking for permission to In-1
tervene In Cuba. On the ath he an
nounced that there would he a delay
of several days The reason attrlb
tiled was that foreign powers were
using their offices to prevail on Spain
to withdraw from Cuba The Queen
of Spain, opposing an armed conflict,
also endeavored to prevent war. On
Saturday, April 9th, Spain agreed to
a phort. armistice, on the condition
that all of this country's battleships
leave the harlmrs of Cuba. This the
United State* refused to agree to, anil
on April 11th nt noon. President Mc-
Kinley sent Ills message, requesting
authorltv "to take measures to secure
a full and final termination of hos
dlltles between the government of
Spain and the people of Cuba and to
secure a stable government capable
of maintaining order and observing
Its international obligations x x x
and to use the military and naval
forces of the Cnlted Slntes as may be
necessary for these purposes ”
The message, contrary to the one
mot hu setts juvenile uKrhulturistH have
come into extensive notice through

GERMANS REFUSE
TO GIVE UP ARMS
Vera Cruz, Mex. "If you get
thi> arms of the German Defense

have to come to the German I.ega
tlon and fight for them.”
That Is the mcssaKc sent Gen
eral Huerta by Admiral l’aiil von
lllntz, German minister iu Mexico
City
The .necessity for this ultima
turn arose out or the demand of
General Huerta that members of
the German Defense league turn
over to him their rifles, machine
guna and ammunition stored In
the German Legation and to he
used by Germans In the rHpltnl

them to defend themselves

Huerta and the dictator had made
no further efforts to obtaiu them.

General VlHia und General Car

No roatraint has been (laced on

of President Wilson, was read by a
clerk and it was greeeted in silence.
Its tone, conservative and cautious,
did not meet, the temper of the men
who sat In the house chamber.
Immediately after the reading the
message was referred to the commit
tee on loreign affairs of both branches
of congress and on April lllth, alter
hours of fierce debate during which
several hooks were thrown and the
word '’liar" was bandied about, a res
olution directing the president to in
tervene in Cuba was passed by the
house by a vote of 922 to 19.
Senate and House Wrangle.
This resolution directed the presi
dent to Intervent to establish a stable
and inde, endent government In Cuba.
On Saturday, April 16th, after sit
tings lasting well into each night,
the senate passed a resolution, amend
ed from the house resolution, author
izing intervention in Cuba, but recog
nizing the de facto republican govern
ment of Cuba.
From the 16th until the 19th the
conference committee from house and
senate wrangled day and night over
this resolution The house insisted
that the resolution should not. carry
the provision acknowledging that a
government existed in Cuba, let alone
a provision recognizing it. The sen
ate committee finally agreed to strike
out the recognition provision and the
house agreed to permit the provision
acknowledging that a republic existed
to remain.
Thus the resolution was sent to
President McKinley on April 20th.
He immediately signed It, and it was
cabled to Minister Woodstock at
Madrid Before Ihe latter could pre
sent It. lo Honor Uullom. then minis
ter of foreign affairs, he was handed
his passports.
The Spanish fleet left for Havana
harbor from Cape Verde and the At

Sampson, left Key West, Fla., for the

blockade of the harbor. At five
o’clock the next afternoon the Ameri
can fleet came In sight of the harbor
and the next night the guns or Moro
Castle boomed the first attack.
War Formally Declared.
On April 24th war was formally de

THE GREATEST REPORTER
]*hilud<*.phia Bulletin.
The greatest Journalist the world !
ever knew livid 1,600 or more years*
before the indention of type, according j
Ing t*» Rev. i)r. Frank N. Paltrier, who
addressed the midwinter Bible confer
ence at the Baptist temple on the writ
ings of St. Mark, and wondered at the
marvels that he might have accom- I
plished if he had lived in the days of
printing presses
St, Matthew put his chronicles in 2S
chapters; St. Luke used 24 to tell his
story; St John used 21, but St. Mark
covered all ihe details more vividly in
16. and true to the spirit of action ami
that animates his kind, put a miracle
in every chapter.
St. Mark. Dr. Palmer said, was the
reporter among the apostles. His
viewpoint, his languange and his mar
velous ability to give action and cli
max, clash and color in a sentence
should be a glowing example to the
newspaper writers of this day.
Each of the other apostles apeak !
of skies that opened. Mark says they
were rent asunder He is the only j
one among his brethren who stopped
dutifully to describe the color of a
given scene. in the writings of his
fellows it is told that the people went
to the Sermon on the Mount. Mark
writes vividly that the people ran.
In writing for the Romans he used
colorful allusions and the references
to wild beasts to touch their intelli- J
gen* e in sympathetic fashion at every
stroke.
MEN'S*” hats
Ohio State Journal.
The headgear of the men! Was |
there ever such a freak of fashion? I
Those great hats that sit on the back
of the head and come down to the
ears does anyone think they are
handsome? Of course, nobody does.
Some rich dude or desiccated duke
wore a hat too big for him and then
commercialised fashion took the hint i
and started the fashion. The rage of a
fashion expresses the uncertain and
vagrant mind, which is the home of |
all the follies and vapid pleasures of ■
the day. It is well that fashions
change. One does not enjoy a long
continued monotony. But when the
change Is made one hopes for grace
and lines of beauty in it. and not
simply hugeness and chaos. But the
fashion won’t last long. One has to
admin* too many ugly hats on the wo
men, that he cannot keep It up when
it comes to the men.
