The Tarboro Southerner tells the following atorv. It is a good one: ; '- "A lady who does not live a hun dred mi lee from this, office suspected her lmsband was in the habk of kissino- the oratiT, servant girl and resolved to detect him in the act After watehino- some time for an. ooDortunitv she heard him enter the . kitehen quietly one evening when the niwttv servant sirl was out." 6he im- miuliiifaW nlaeed a Bhawl aver her Wd and with matches in hand and heart burning with jealousy, entered the darksome kitchen by the - back door and iwas almost immediately seised and embraced and kissed . in ' the most ardent manner. Burning with rage and bent on administering a terrible rebuke ehe tore loose from hi embrace and struck a match and . here stood face to face with the serv ing girl's beau.

Explanation EiU U be a Cloak Eaemiea Probing for Mo tive. . ; Special to Baltimore 6tin. -; Washington. Mareh 9. By Demo crats and that element of Republicans in Washington who are opposed to President Tift, the possible political significance of the sudden rushing of the American military and, naval forces within' striking distance of the Mexican border is regarded as of great importance, and every move is being watched with keenest interest. The official explanation of the mobi lisation of the troope,ihat it is for the purpose of indulging in a war game of "maneuvers," is held to be an extremely thin and perfectly trans parent cloak, useful in hiding the real purpose of the President and his ad- vieers. - i ?-:. -x. It i recognized that there is a more serious reason than the one officially given and that the situation is load ed with political dynamite. The pos sibilities of an American invasion of Mexico; of a war of conquest, or of some dramatic and forceful move npon the part of the American foreei that will rush the insurrectltm and estab lish Urmly the tottering Mexican Got- eminent, protecting American inter ests and investments in a way . to arouse the admiration and pride of the people m their President, are be ing widely speculated npon A great deal of skepticism is heard here as to the possibility of European intervention in Mexico and the eug geation of such a thing is character ized a "bosh." A note is also detected in the talk oo the effect that the whole business hae its inspiration r in wall - street, where the big investors, who have their millions tied up in Mexico Are anx ious- that they shall -be guarded. If American, money is to be spent, and, possibly, American blood spilled, to protect the interest of the Morgans and. the Ouggenheims, then the Dem ocrats are calculated to make the moat of that as a campaign issue when Coin gross convenes, Certain it is that if the veil is -not lifted -by the Administration as to its real motives before that time there will be a prompt introduction s&reSOi for speeine Information.
