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*f Europe, and he hss several times ap plied for a transfer, but, of course, when Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson was withdrawn and O'Hhaughnessy wss placed In charge he gave up all thought of going hark to Europe and settled down to make the best of a bad situation.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 Washiinglon Star Facta ere frequently published in the newspapers which point to a remarks lit growth of sentiment that agricul tural education Is desirable for chil dren. The public has become reason ably familiar with the subject of boys* corn dub* and girls’ vegetable and canning clubs In the agricultural states of the south and west, but in the stress and mass of other news which finds its place on the printed page It is doubtful if casual readers gain a Just conception of the magni tude of the movement which is behind the organisation of those clubs or of the Influence and extent of the clubs themselves, relatively few* of them ever obtaining other than mention in their own neighborhood In addition to corn and tomato clubs one is now hearing mors frequent reference to bean clubs and potato clubs and here and there a reference to boys* cotton and whsat clubs la the manufacturing state of Mas 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.

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.

"If you get thi> arms of the German Defense la>HKue In Mexico (’tty you will 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 should It become necessary for them to defend themselves News of Ihe stand taken by Ad miral von Hits was received in Vera Cruz today by American and other refugee who arrived here this afternoon. l’|) to the (line of the leaving of the refugee train from the eat Ital. they said.

( 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 lantic fleet, under Rear Admiral Sampson, left Key West, Fla., for the game | ort, with instruct lons to de stroy or capture any Spanish vesel that attempted to Interfere with 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.

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. THE HERALD’S NEWS SERVICE.
