SPANISH CHIVALRY.
The Sneaking Cowards Shooi at a
Funeral Party.
After the battle at Guantanamo a
funeral party of Americans was pro
ceeding to the edge of a hill to the
northward of the camp to bury, the
bodies of Surgeon Gibbs and Privates
McColgan and Dunphy. A squad of
marines from the Texas acted as es
cort. A stretcher bearing the bodies had
just been lifted to its place, and Chap
lain Jones, of the Texas, was about to
begin reading the burial service, when
the Spaniards, who could see what the
men had gathered for, gave a fine ex
hibition of their boasted chivalry by
shooting at the funeral party. All
sprang to arms save the chaplain and
escort, who stood still. Volleys from
Colts, howitzers and. rifles were poured
into the chapparal, making it hot for
the dastardly Spaniards. Then, to
add to the fusilade, in honor, almost
it seemed, of the dead heroes, other
Spaniards across the bay began firing
at the dispatch boat, which challenge
was answered by the Texas with" six
pounders. The Spaniards were driven
from that side for the rest of the day.
Shortly the firing ceased and the fu
neral was resumed. Chaplain Jones
had nearly finished reading the ser
vice when the enemy's rifles cracked to
the east, but the chaplain kept on, and
when he finished, the men again took
their rifles and resumed the work of
watching; Meanwhile the Panther
shelled the brush to the east for half
an hour, and from that time on less
trouble was experienced.
In the afternoon tents were all struck
and carried down near the beach, but
were not again pitched. The Span
iards fired on the flag when it was
raised, but were soon silenced. The
Panther and Marblehead resumed fir
ing at 5 o'clock, and then all the Span
iards disappeared.
Little is known of the enemy's dead,
but buzzards were seen gathering over
the hill.
THE CRACK COMPANY.
The Universal Verdict Concerning Our
Boys at Camp Russell.
As a rule Greensboro people are not
a boastful people; but it is with pard
onable pride that we all speak of the
splendid bearing and high standing of
the Greensboro boys, Company D, of
the second regiment, now encamped at
Raleigh. They always elicit the
heartiest applause in the drill ma-
neuvres or on dress parade.
Everybody applauds them. All are
struck with the soldierly appearance
and gentlemanly demeanor of the
Guilford boys. Captain Gray and
the other officers must needs be proud
of the boys when they hear so often
the verdict that company D is the
crack company of the regiment.
When the second North Carolina
regiment goes to the front you may
expect to hear a good report from
Compa'uy D. There will be no skulk
ing and no wavering. They have the
spirit and fire of true American man
hood, this may be truly said of the
others also, but we are speaking spec
ially of our own boys and those who
who enlisted in Captain Gray's com
pany. The Telesrram sends them, both col
lectively and individually, the greet
ings of Greensboro, and congratu
lates them, from the gallant captain
to the humblest private, on being the
crack company in the regiment.
All hail to Company DI

They Favor an Alliance.
Toronto, June 14 Two important
church conferences here expressed
themselves, strongly in favor of an
Anglo-American alliance today. The
Toronto Methodist Conference dis
cussed the matter and there was only
one dissenting voice, that of the Rev.
E. S. Rose, who thought that perhaps
the United States were a little hasty in
their professions of friendship for
Great Britain, and that the talk of an
alliance was largely influenced by the
present war. All the other members
of the conference favored the resolu
tion.
The Congregational Union passed a
resolution in which the members said
they beheld with reverent wonder the
crumbling of ancient empires and
strongly approved of an Anglo-Saxon
alliance.
Hurrah for Bluel
Hurrah for Blue! He made a detour
of Santiago harbor and counted the
Spanish warships bottled up there. He
is a South Carolinian. Bagley, Hob-
son Blue! Give us a Southern boy
for a ticklish job. Charlotte Observer
Blue is a familiar name to this
writer. The good old Scotch settle
ments of Moore, Richmond and Robe
son counties are largely populated
with people of that name. It is not at
all improbable that the above men
tioned Blue is a descendent of North
Carolina stock. Any way we heartily
ioin tne Observer in savin? "Hurrah

Washington, June 15 A bill has
passed the house granting: American
registers on foreign steamships, as
specialties and unionists to be used on
transports.
Debate on the Hawaiian annexation
resolution has been resumed. Con
gressman Fitzgerld, of Mass., in ar
gued in opposition because it violated
the fundamental principles of the dem
ocratic party, viz: that the trovern
ment rests upon the consent of the
governed. The forty thousand natives
in Hawaii have not been consulted in
the matter of annexation.
Congiessman Berry, of Kentucky
followed Mr. Fitzgerald, favoring an
nexation. He was confident that time
would show the opponents of the move
their error. A vote will be taken be
fore adjournment this afternoon. It
will undoubtedly be adopted by a large
majority. Practically all the republ
icans and a number of democrats will
vote in favor of the resolution.
The fight in the senate will begin
immediately. The only danger con
fronting the resolution there is the
possible attempt at filibustering to
prevent a quorum on the final vote.

Plot to Assassinate Him at Conse
cration Services.
By Cable to The Telegram.
London, June 15 Advices from St.
Petersburg tell of a plot to assassinate
the Czar at consecration services at
a church in Tsarskoe Seloe, by under
mining the spot where he wS expected
to stand. The attempt is blVed to be
the work of the secret police for the
scare given them in view of the aboli
tion of a lucrative post in that depart
ment. Charmingly Entertained.
The social tea given last night at
the home of Miss Ruby Glascock, on
Asheboro street, by the Young Peo
ple's Missionary Society of Centenary
church was one of the most enjoyable
events in the history of the society.
A large number of the . young people
of the church were present and for
three hours were delightfully enter
tained by the charming hostess. Noth
ing was left undone that would add
to the enjoyment of the occasion. At
10:30 o'clock the guests assembled in
the spacious dining room where tea
was served in the most pleasing man
ner. On each table was a mite box
which was not neglected by the young
men of the party. Many expressed
their intention to join the society at
its next meeting. At 11:30 the guests
departed with many expressions of
having spent a most delightful even
ing. Surf bathing, boat riding. There is
no place like Ocean View, only a few
moments ride from Norfolk. Round
trip to Norfolk $3.50.
