FITZHUGII LEE Ihe Consul-General bw in Washington; ; He Does -Not ; TMnk ? An y Serfous Question Will Arise Over Miss ' Cisneros' Escape v- "Washington, Oct.: 12. 1 v - - M.-ConsufGeneral , Fitzhugh Lee arrived; in Washington Bunday night and was at the state de partment early Monday morning In. con ference with Assistant. Secretary- Day, leaving later for WarrenVay to at tend the funeral of afriend.vHe will return tonight to advise further with officials, here as to the-Cuban situation. It is understood that the state depart ment' is going over with Sen. Lee and Mr. Hannis Taylor, ex-minister to Spain, the effect of the 3 recent cabinet changes, the' result of Gen. : Weyler's withdrawal and his successioniby Gen. Blanco, and other Hew phases .devel oped by the accession of Sagasta. The escape of Miss Cisneros from" a Havana prison, through the efforts of a repre sentative of the New York Journal, has been talked oyer also, the prevail ing view being that it will not lead -to an international complication. Gen. Lee said today that; he did not . think any serious question ; would arise over the incident. JEx-Minister Taylor when (asked, if -International complications Were likely to arise, answered: : "I think , not. and the. probable result will be that Sagasta, will give a royal decoration to those who have been good enough to rid Spain of this troublesome subject." v Mr. Taylor will not discuss the pres ent situation at Madrid;- .He is engaged, however, in writing a review of the po litical, economic and diplomatic phases of the Cuban problem, with his own views drawn from experience at Mad rid, and refuses to make any comment in advance of his carefully .prepared re view of the case. . ; . .

As evidence -of 'this it is pointed out that Gen; Blanco, the new captain-general of-Cuba, will not leave for his post before the 15th ihst. Offi- cials believe'his departure is more likely to be deferred until the 150th. The trip fi'om Barcelona to Havana . will take about eleven days, so that the new captain-general will not reach Havana be fore the early part of -next month. This, questions to be held in suspense at least aintil the new official reaches his post. After that it is anticipated the Spanish cabinet will desire that Gen. Blanco be given time to familiarize himself '.with the situation and his duties to. mature the policy he is to apply to the island. fThe execution of that policy, an allow ance oi time for its fair trial, etc., acs cordingi to those in a position to accu rately judge the situation, . will lead to protracted delays on those subjectsrto which the United States recently has in vited the attention of Spain. ; ' - - ; Senor ' Dubosc, secretary of the Span ish legation, has returned, ; and Jls' the only Spanish official in Washington, He maintains strict reserve concerning the present situation of affairs, j.

According; to ft pretty legend, the hoopoe received its crown as a' reward for a kindly service. " One very hot day, the: story runs, King Solomon was Journeying from one part of his vast domain to ' another. He had no covering over his -head,' and the sun's soorching rays became unbearable. At length he came up with a flook of vul tures and said to them-: - "Vultures do me'akindness. ' "Fly very close together above my head : and . shield me from the sqn for a time as I jourpey." The vultures 'refused- outright tQ; thus favor the king, and he then said to them: " Yultures, because. of your selfishness, your heads and necks, and the heads and. necks of all your descendants,, shall from this time to the end of - time be bare of feathers, and thus you will be exposed to both heat and cold." . ' Solomon went a little farther and over took a flock of hoopoes, and thus addressed them: ' " . I "Little hoopoes,; my head aches from having been exposed to the sun's fierce rays for several hours.

The warlike Arapahoes are extinct; the; Utes, the Uncompahgres, and the Navahoes remain on their reservations In Utah. Some twelve or fifteen years ago, at the White River agency,' just north of the Roan Mountains, an' agent named Meeker, who cherished a wild ..idea that his Indians adored him, fell out with them, and was discovered at his back door with no. scalp on the top of his head. His da'ughter, Miss Josephine Meeker," was carried off by a buck whom she designated in her narrative as "the gallant Persune." A small party of troops, dispatched by the agency, fell into an ambuscade. The men built a small corral" of 'bowlders, behind which they crouched to avoid the shots of the Indians, who occupied the surrounding heights. Their supply of rations was short, and the Indians used their Winchesters effectively; the beleaguered soldiers seemed to have no alternative but death or starvation. But the secretary of war acted with vigor. Troops were gathered from Rridger, Laramie and Halleck, as well as Leavenworth, and were placed un der the command of Col. Wesley Mer ritt. "Old Wesley," said veterans, "will come "with a twirl." And so he did tearing over brier and brake " with mounted troopers and wagons full of Indian-fighters. Still, the poor fellows In the corral were growing very hun gry, and when a cap was lifted above the bowlders it had a hole in it before it Cduldii.be drawn down. I will not undertake.-to describe their emotion when;, lone: gray, dawn, the blast of , a bugle Tuits through the morning air, aaanoid soldier shouted, "That's the night signaJ-sfthe FifthJJniteStates ! cavalry !t ReaderSwho care fo?-tire rest of the story can get it from Chief Douglas, who is a life prisoner at Fort Leavenworth. As to one little incident, it may be fair to anticipate him. In the force under Col. Merritt was a company of colored troops. They sprang like tigers into the corral, with Indian bullets sing ing around their heads, and their ra tions to their white' -comrades, then dashed up the hillside with the light of battle in their eyes, firing as they went. When they reached the summit the In dian Are was silenced, - ' - -v, - In the force whose lives, were saved there was a youn Irish recruit who used; to tell the story in a -racy Style, and to wind up with the sentence, "And now, gentlemen, if you know 'of any man who says he will not serve with a nayger, I'll ask you to introjuice me."

'It has been considered a delicacy for a great many years, but the trouble of producing it was so great that it never made its ap pearance until within a very short time, excepting as it graced the table of an epicure, says an exchange. As "an article of diet, if provided by a com petent chef and a hostelry worthy of its name it will resemble the famous and fast disappearing canvasback" duck, not that it has a.ny gastronomic features $n common with the scion of the duck fam ily, "but the prices , are about the same for a dinner with either as one -of the. principal ingredients, with a small cold bottle accompaniment, The cognomen "greert" duck is not be stowed upoi the fowl because It has any resemblance to one of the prismatic colors nor for any likeness" to the green apple because' it is tmripe,' but for; the reason that' it is not matured or sea soned,: except - with toothsome spices and savory filling matter. . The' green duck is a duckling about eight weeks ,old,v or,v rather, a duckling' that Will weigh about' four pounds. Some duck lings at eight weeks old wpuld beery green, - while other ducks that would weigh four pounds might be unreason- J ably high, -so the requirements of a green duck are that It shall not be over two months old, hot less than four pounds in weight and that it. shall nev er have ducked in the water. The pro duction of green "ducks is a new but thriving industry. The. introduction of artificial incubation, made the industry profitable, - for "under the old system ? of raising ducks by nature, it, was expen sive to produce green ducks. Thevturn ing of them- out.Tjy, the thousand made It profitable, 'and now. the demand. for A them in the New TTork and Boston mar kets exceeds, the "supply .
