SPAIN SURRENDERS. A Reciprocity Arrangement, for Whl-h I lie I" iiited states Have Con tended. C.ranCcd. Washington, Jin. 30. Secretary Gresham understands that the modus vivendi between Spam and the United States, which passed the Sen ate at Madrid yesterdaj, will go in to effect immediately. Tae text of the bill proposed by -iJiaSaajiish government as published officially in Madrid is as follows; "The government j3 authored to apply to the prodjj"cts &ai .!iaiiafsic ftus3-p4fcSft'ted Sraks, which, coming from th ports of the Uni ted States, lire admitted into the ports of Cuba and Porto Rica, the eecond column of the customs du ties in force in Cuba and Porto Rica, in return for the United Gtatci p p'ying their lowest duties to the pro- diicta of the soil aud industry of Cuba aud Porto Eici. "Thia modus vivendi will remain i force nntil a definite trsaty is con cluded b --tween the two countries interested, or untTl one of them an nounces, three months in advance, the day 011 which it wishes to put an end to it. Signed Ale.u xmio GnoizAr.n, Minister of State." Tr.is action of Spain in restoring the lowest rates of duty to Aniens can products is a cotnp cte surrender to the contention of the United States that as long as we did not dis criminate against Cuba or Porto Rico we were entitled under the. favored nation clause to the raies existing heretofore. Failing in that, the United States wa3 prepared to retaliate under the provision of the pure food and ilie acts. DTonazite. The Concord Standard of one day last week contained 'the following: 'Mr. J A Kerr, of ner Mare j vil!e, was in the city and left .?itii us a specimen of mcnazite, the mineral that is used by electricians, etc., and found only in Wilkes, Iredell and Alexander counties iu this country. This whole section of the Sta'e is in a state of craze over tbe finding of so profitable a mineral. The ore is worth from S2C0 to 300 per ton." We infer from the above that Mr. Kerr found the monazite if it be monazite in this county. We hope he did and that the sample is genu ine. The Landmark has been hop ing for some time that a deposit of this valuable mineral would be found in Iredell. Mr. Webster, of Stateeville, recently found near town what he thcught was tnonat zite, but Mr. Lewis, of the Sta e Geological Survey, who was in Sratesville two weeks ago, examined the specimen and pronounced it not monazite. The Standard is mistaken in s ty. ing that monazite is found only "in Wilkes, Iredell nnd Alexander counties. We do not recall that it hps been found in either cf these counties as yet, though V e hope, and there is reason to believe, that it may be found in all of them.' So far it has been developed in Cleve land, Burke, and' if we are not ais taken, Rutbeiford, and perhaps other counties. Cleveland has been the main theatre of the monazite mi dustry and the mining and sale of the mineral has turned loose a vast lot of money In that county. Wbso first discovered - veiy fancy prices were paid for it, but plfoes now range from 6 to 8 cents per pound. Statesyille Landmark. ' Th! Standard has beeti accused of wearing socks.

It was purchased by Mr. Graber, the market man. Mr. L II Mocse, of r.ear Mt. Pleasant, was in the city. He brought 13 head of the hogs, the whole af which weighed more than 1,700 pounds. The ladies who so cleverly man aged the effaira at Armor Hall for the past two nights were indeed suc cessful, owing to the bad weather having cleared about $42. r A freight car was broken into at the depot sometime Tuesday night but no goods were taken out. Some poor tramp doubtless entered the car for shelter. The Fenix flour mills have de livered from its warehouse at the mill 600 barrels of flour since Janu ary 1.

There were five pair in all, three pair No. 8 and two No. 9. They are ot the brogan make, with sprirg bot tom heel; the half sole ia fastened on with bright headed tacks and iu the center is TO, all made with tacks. Chief Boger has the shoes in hi possession at police headquarters, and has also his man spotted, a sus pecioua character who has been hanging around the city for several days and who has offered shoes and ciothing both for sale. These goods were not stolen from any establishment in the city. J t is i thought they were stolen from a freight car in some surrounding town and brought here to speculate on. They are from the Jot numbered 21133, and have a clamp-buckle on the mouth. The person who concealed the shoes can get them from Chief Boger by personally appearing be fore him and identifying same.

A Womlerfiit lien. The Fenix Flour M'lls boasts of a hen that is quite a Populist in her ideas of econemy. Sr e ha3 been lay- ing two eggs per day for one month, but where her economy comes in is that she deposits the two eggs in one shell to save expense. But un fortunately for the hen, she i3 owned by one of Concord's staunch Demo crats.

The hard wind3 of last Fridaj night and Saturday nearly wrecked the large five story prize house tf Hooker & Bernard occupied by the American Tobacco Company. The South end of the first story is t-ulgs ed aud careened until it ia about three feet cut cf i;osition. and il windows are scattered. The west side ia sunk in and wr.rpcd out of shape and the entire floor badly strained. Prom the second story up the building seems to l e intact, but with the immense weight cf the building and large-stocks of tobacco bearing 011 the displaced first story it ia doubtful ifthc building can be saved. Its appearance became so dangerous Saturday that the hands deserted it, and ths remainder of that day and Sunday tbe collapse of tne building was lookcu for at any moment. It is standing yet, and ef forta have been made to brace it so that hands can go in and remove the stock of tobacco. Uundrcd3 of neo pie have been out to look at it. This ia the same building thab-blew down last July when raised to the fourth story aud injured Eeveral , workmen. The loss caused by its present con dition will be heavy upon the owns era, even it it can be saved short of a total loss. The American Tobacco Company havo some tornado insur aace-ou the stock of tobacco but not near onough to coyer the large quan lty Btoreu in the building.

Exposure oi'.Scraway AecksNhould be Prohibited by a Commission Com posed of .Hen. ' The question of women wearing decollete gowns," Bbould be referred to a commission composed of men. It is a well-known fact that women expose their arms, shoulders and busts in public only with a view to ! their buiueseen by men. All women who are honest will acknowledge this. Therefore, it seems right that the judges in this matter should not be Granni?, who be'ieves the practice to be wronr, or Mrs. Frank Leslie, who believes it to be rip-ht; but those chiefly concerned, tht 13 the men themselves "Now, it s a fact that most men like to look at attractive arms, shoulders and busts. It is is also a fact that there are in the world horresco refereus ! busts, shouldera -and arms wltich are not attractive. These latter men certainly do not care to look a and they should be seyarely suppressed. "Why, then, would it not be a good idea to have a law passed by which all women should appear at stated intervals before local inspect ors of arms, shoulders and busts who issue or withhold permits entitling the bearers to appear in decollete gowns ? "There might be complications, it is true. For example, where a woman had broken her right collar bone, but had an exquisite left shoulder, she would be given a par tial, left-handed permit Other snecial cases wonld drfrThTioSS but tbe inspectors, if wisely chosn.A would know how to deal witCw miur them."
