Of course it was well known that Al ger abandoned the intended junket because be failed to get a sufficient number of Democratic senators and representatives to accept invita tions to acorn p any him. But for consistency's sake it was supposed that Alger would remain on duty and make a bluff of being busy. Not he. He left immediately after Mr. McKinley did for a trip to New England, which was extended to Canada, and this week he is going to start for Cuba and Porto Rico, but he won't carry any congress men with him. He says he is go ing to pay the expenses of himself and the two men who will accom pany him, but it would require the vouchers for the payment to con vince the public. Private t news from the Philip pines indicates that the adminis tration Is ' again juggling with the public in regard to the situation. While no official dispatches have been quoted, officials have talked so as to leave the impression that the reports of Gen. Otis since the victories of the past week have been to the effect that Aguinaldo's army is about ready to ask for terms and that a general collapse, of the re bellion may be looked for at any time. Owing to the strict censor ship, no private telegrams dealing with the conditions existing can be sent from Manila direct, but some have been sent to Hong Kong by boat and cabled from there, which do not take such a rosy view of the situation. According to these the war is a long ways from being over, and the only effect thaX will follow thrashing Aguinaldo's army, which our troops do every time they come into contact with any portion of it, will be to transfer the fighting ground to the hills and bushes, where it will be difficult for our men to get at them except when they choose to be got at, and possi bly to other islands of the group. There is a nightly panio in Manila and most of the white women and children have been sent away for fear of a natire uprising. Time will tell which is correct, the official or the privateTiewof the situation.

VICTIM OF THE HOTEL FIRE Miss Miss Grandy, a Daughtor of North Carolina. Met ' Hor Death While on a Pleasure Trip to New York- Washington, March 18. Miss Las celles Grandy, of Elizabeth City, N. G.J who lost her life by jumping from a window at the- Windsor Hotel' fire in New York last night, was better known here than in her native State.! She has resided here twelve years. She was a daughter of Judge Grandy, a! prominent jurist of North Carolina, and sister of Harrison Grandy, who re cently graduated at the Columbia University here. ! Miss Grandy was born in Elizabeth1 City. N. C. about thirty-two years ago, where she made her home until ! the death of her father. She was edu cated id the best schools of this conn-; try and afterwards completed her edu cation in Paris. At the, death of her father Gtandy came into possession of a large fortune, which she invested in Wash ington real estate. Her home was at 1023 Connecticut avenue, and was for years known as one of the most hospi table homes in Washington. : Misa Grandy was fond of travel and spent almost every summer in Europe, j Her home was, filled with old-world curiosi ties, and hei collection of bric-a-brac is considered one of the finest in this city. Although not a society woman, Miss Grandy numbered' among her friends some of the best-known residents, and was prominently identified with sev eral woman 's clubs. Her afternoon teas were famous as rendezvous of women conspicuous in literary, artistic and social circles. She left here last Saturday, the 11th, for New York on a pleasure trip to New York, expecting to return on the zznd. uer motner nas recently! re turned from Elizabeth Citr. where she went with her son Harrison,' who has just started in the practice of law. The Raleigh's Compliment to Spain. Gibraltar, March 18. As the United States cruiser Raleigh sail ed from here for New York, this afternoon, homeward bound from Manila, in order to be put out of commission, she hoisted the Span ish ensign and fired a salute while passing the Spanish squadron, com manded by Admiral Camara, off Algerciras. The Spanish flagship Carlos Quinta thereupon hoisted the American ensign and returned the salute. ; J The smallest things may exert the greatest Influence, De Witt's Little arly Risers are unequalled for over coming constipation and liver troubles.

He was a lieutenant of the Rama Rifles, in the recent Nicaragua revolution under Reyei. The re volt lasted barely three weeks. Cutting says it would certainly have succeeded, but for the arrant cowardice of Reyes and other lead ers. ' . I . . ' ! "Had we had only 500 Americans, we would have gone through Ze lay a' s forces like molasses out of a garret window," said Cutting, but our leaders were too cowardly to fight. They showed the white feather at the first approach of danger." 1 Cutting says the taxation in Nic aragua is unbearable and. that the American mine owners and opera tives there may be expected to soon raise another and a successful revolution. South Swept by Terrible Storms. Memphib, Tenn., March 18. A series of terrific wind storms swept through portions of Ala bama, Mississippi and Arkansas today, doing an immense amount of property damage and killing a number of people. The storm cov ered a radius of several hundred miles, destroying telegraph wires and , cutting off communication with a large part of the affected country. Cleburn county, Alabama, seems to have suffered the most severely, the storm there reaching the pro portions of a tornado. The re ports of fatalities in the county vary from six to twenty and many more are said to- have been injured. At Sellers, and Luverne, , Ala., much damage is reported, and at Rob Roy, Ark., one man was killed and several were badly injured. Just" before "Tom" Marshall made his first visit to Boston an ordinance was passed imposing a fine of $5 for smoking on the streets. "Tom" lighted a cigar, started down the street, and was arrested. He went before the prop er officer, was duly fined, planked down $10 and started away. "Hold on," said the judge ; "there is some change coming to you." To which "Tom" is said to have replied : "Oh, keep the change, I shall want to spit presently.. Landreth & Sons' reliable Garden Seed fresh at Gardner's, corner oppo site postoffice. - .j MRS.

Only two newspaper men were present in accordance with a edict from the Governor. Dr. Jennie Griffin, of Troy, a well known physician, was also 'pres ent at the request of the Governor.

The bloom is once more re turning to his cheeks and the fagged-out appearance is vanish ing. He is enjoying the vacation greatly and expresses himself as delighted with the drives around Thbmasville. Invitations continue to pour in from the surrounding country, but are all being declined in pursuance of the purpose to avoid everything having the aspect I of a semi-public iunctien. xne presidential mail is growing! rapid ly, the people being well acquaint ed now with Mr. McKinley's where abouts. - ! A Bom Diplomat, j; Mrs. Hansom: "I understand, sir, that you have secretly; been making love to my daughter; and I must forbid any acquaintance be gun in that way. You should lave seen me first." ' ' j Shrewd Suitor: "Madame,1 had I seen you first I shouid have forgot ten your daughter and fallen in love with you." ; j Mrs. Hansom : "Umtnei infor mality of the proceeding was all I objected to. Come with me and I will introduce you to my husband." CASTOR I A , Per Infant and Children, j. Tt3 Kind Yea liars Alwajs Bought Bears the Signature of Philosophy. - A woman asks a woman ques tions to discover something. ' She asks a man questions to discover the man. True love makes all things lova ble, except perhaps the chaperon. What a second lover chiefly de plores is that it was not he who first- taught his loved one to love. It is noble to go to the succcr of the weak and the oppressed, to say nothing of the Presidential patren age it sometimes creates. Man calls woman capricious simply because be is too stupid to comprehend the laws by which she is swayed. Woman does not call man capricious. The inference is obvious. To Insure a happy new year, keep the liver clear and the body vigorous by using De Witt's Little Early Klsers, the famous little pills for constipation and liver troubles. Howard Gardner. i The Supreme court has rendered an important decision in reference to the liability of proprietors of to bacco salesrooms. Under this de cision such a proprietor is liable to the true owner of tobacco wrong fully taken to the salesroom and put upon the floor by the proprietor or auctioneer, whether the proprie tor bad actual knowledge of such wrongful taking or not. The court cites an old-time authority in ref erence to the liability of auctioneers and agents for goods that have been stolen and sold by them in ignorance of the felony.
