ilANAGTJA, Nicaragua, Jan. 2. "With
little Treating of drums or "blowing of
trumpets, a -warlike move tipon the pars
of the republic of Colombia is navr be
lieved to have been checkmated by the
republic of ISTcaragna, although fur
ther news from, the objective point, Corn
island, is anxiously expected here.
About a month ago the government
of ISicaragna "was informed unofScraTly,
that Colombia had planned to make a
landing on Corn island, a valuable
Ptrategic spot, situated about 36 miles
ofL ilosqciro coast, belonging to Nicara
gua, vrhose Sag is to be hauled down
aa& the ensign of Colombia subsituted
far it. It -was alleged that Nicaragua
"was overtaxing Corn island and that the
inhabitants, numbering a few hundred,
had appealed to Colombia for redress on
the grounds that the territory, some five
rafles long, -which formerly belonged to
Oriombia was unlawfully held by 2tTcar- ;
ngua. It was further stated that the
prefect of San Andrez, Colombia, had
assembled a military force and was only
waiting for the arrival of a Colombian.
gusboas in order to embark the troops
to proceed to Corn island, seize it and
fortify it against the possibility of re
capture. Zelaja Acts Promptly.
That such a plan was discussed there
is Ko reason to doubt, but President
Zekiya of Nicaragua took prompt steps
to meet this move upon the part of the
neighboring republic. Very quietly de
tachments of Nicaragua troops were as
Eembfed here and at Granada and when
all was ready they were sent in small
parties across Lake Nicaragua and down
the San Juaa river to Grey town and
Biuefieids. By this time the soldiers of
Nicaragua arc believed to be in possess
ion of Eig and littie Com island, for
there are two of them, and the work of
erecting a strong fort should be prr
gressig. The troops took all their best
guns available and a supply of ammuni
tion and other supplies. Storehouses are
aba to be constructed at Corn island.
Of course if the Colombian expedition
started earlier than expected and reached
Cam island before the Nicaragua n
troops, fighting nwy have occurred be
fore this, and if so. the matter may lead
to a general upheaval in Central Amer
ica, for Colombia was warned diploma
tically and through the press early last
mouth that her seizure of Corn island
might lead to a warlike combination of
the republics of Salvador and Honduras,
in support of Nicaragua against her.
Colombia was also advised if she stffl
maintained that she had rights over
Corn island, to submit them to the
arbitration of a disinterested republic.
To these threats and suggestions, appar
ently no attention was paid, for it was
announced that the Colombian gunboat
was being fimd up for the transporta
tion of Colombian troops to Corn island.
It is hoped here that the Nicaraguan
forces reached there in advance of the
Colombian detachment.
CoTetM hy Grrat Urftaln,
Borne years ago at the time work was
beginning on the maritime canal of
Nicaragua, it was reported that Great
Britain was contemplating laying hands
on Com island which, situated at a con
veaient distance from the Atlantic en
trance of the canal, would have been
quickly converted into another of the
chains of British forts off the American
coast and would have enabled her to be
practically in command of the eastern
entrance of the waterway, which is in
time to join the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Thereupon Nicaragua, acting upon sug
gestions, possibly from the United States,
took official possession of both Big and
Little Com islands, hoisting the Nicara
guan Sag over them with much cere
mony and giving diplomatic notice of
the same.
The British claim to Corn island is
understood to be based on her former
pretentions, since given up, to a protec
torate over the Mosquito territory and
because Colombia, which originally
owned Com island, ceded the islands to
King George, then the governing chief
tain, under British auspices of the Mos
quito reservation. Colombia, however,
insists that Corn island was only ceded
to King George on the condition that i;
was to be returned whenever required.
Nicaragua, as present owner of what
was the Mosquito reservation, now part
of the republic of Nicaragua, disputes
the point, and especially as the time for
raising- it officially has long since passed
away and holds that Com island was
part of the Mosquito territory and as
such is now a portion of Nicaraguan ter
ritory. It will thus.be seen that the dispute is
& pretty one as it stands, and that much
may depend upon which country's
troops first land on Com island and
place it in a state of defense. The Nica
raguan government has strong hopes
that the blue and white flag of Nicara
gua is now floating over Com island,
otherwise this news would not have
been allowed to leak out.
Com island is considered to be the
healthiest spot about the coast of Cen
tral America. The ground is so high
above the sea and the sides of the larger
island are rocky and admirably adapted
to be converted into strong fortifications.
The inhabitants are mainly Indians and
smugglers, also there are a few Ameri
can and English merchants doing busi
ness there. Both Big and little Com
island afford good anchorage to the
lartrest vessels close to the shore, and in
short a better spot for coaling station
and repair shop for the United States
war vessels could hardly be found. Un
der the crrcinastances, when the Nica
Vjjiym canal is built, it would be good
policy for the United States to obtain
possession of the Com island by pur
chase or otherwise, and have a fine sen
try box almost at the Atlantic entrance
cf the proposed new waterway, thus set
tling all disputes as to ownership.

Thousands of Tons of Dost.
According to the estimates of Mr, J.
A. Udden, who has studied the remark
able phenomena of dust and sand storms
in tin arid regions of the west, every
cubic mile of the lower air during an
ordinary "dry storm" contains at least
225 tons of dust, while in severe storms
of this kind as much as 126,900 tons of
dust and sand may be contained in a
cubic mile of air. Dust storms some
times last for 20 or 30 hours.
To See Plainly.
The more I think of it I find this
conclusion more impressed upon me,
that the greatest thing a human soul
ever does ia this world is to see some
thing and tell what it saw in a plain
way. Hundreds of people can talk for
one who can think, but thousands can
think for one who can see. To see clear
ly is poetry, prophecy and religion all
in one. Buskin.

The Oldest "Woman's Club.
New York claims to have the oldest
woman's club is the country. It isn't So
rcsis either, but the Society For the Belief
of Poor Widows and Orphans. It was or
ganized in 1797 and has ever since been in
existence. The orphan asylum on River
side drive is one of the direct results of
the work of this old society, with which
many names familiar to New York history
are connected The first directress of the
original orphan asylum society was Mrs.
Hoffman; the second directress was Mrs.
Alexander Hamilton. Mrs. Hamilton con
tinned to be an officer nntll she removed
from New York to Washington. There is
a picture of "Mrs. General Hamilton" in
the committee room of the asylum, and
an Interesting memento of her is a mat
used until last year to rest the Bible on as
committee meetings. That mat is knitted
a plain stitch, such as used in knitting
stockings, and ia in stripes of different
colors. There is a blue fringe around it,
and it is lined. On the back of the lining
in sample stitches are the werds: "Mrs.
A. Hamilton. Hade in her ninety-fourth
year."
OQy Skins.
Sufferers from oiliness of skin muss, of
course, consider what produces this com
plaint and take active measures to cure is.
It is caused by either weakness or some
disorder of the system, and the diet should
be carefully attended to first of alL Rich
foods of all kinds muss be given up, and
plain nursery cooking, with plenty of fruit
and vegetables, taken instead.
Hot, ill ventilated rooms muss be avoid
ed, as well as lata hours and heavy bed
clothing. Plenty of outdoor exercise must
ba a daily item in our life. A daily bath
of tepid water, douche baths and an occa
sional Turkish bath most bo taken. But
this hiss must never be taken except under
medical orders.
Aperient medicines should be taken in
the morning and fresh fruit eaten while
dressing: Apples or oranges are advised
as this hour. If fresh fruit is difficult to
obtain, French plains, figs dipped in oil
or prunes may be taken instead. Salads
shoold be eaten for breakfast and lunch.
Watercress aad dandelions can be advan
tageously used fcr this purpose, as well as
lettuce.

is obvious that animals are only sober
from lack of wit to obtain alcohol:
"That establishment disgorges into a

Eeason la the I-oer Animals.
We have a fox terrier whose happi
ness was complete until Dodgerfield
came. She is very affectionate, conse
quently very jealous. If looks and
growls would kill, Dodgerfield would
die many times a day. Both dogs eat
from the same plate, but not at the
same time. One day last week we fed
Dodgerfield first. The fox terrier was
very hungry and begged hard for first
dinner. Dodger seemed to eat more
slowly than usual, and Nettie watched
dolefully.
Finally hunger got the better of her
honesty, and she barked sharply three
short barks. Dodger left hi plate and
sprang to the window, looking excitedly
up and down the road. Nettie looked
neither to the right nor the left, but
made straight far the plate of food as
soon as Dodger's back was turned. If
this was not an exhibition of reason and
human intelligence, then mankind in
general possesses a large degree of ani
mal "instinct.' Dog Fancier.

5hey Are In Sad Taste and Are Disliked
by Boolrworm and Scholar.
Books have a right to be, first of all,
books, not purveyors of whimsies in
color and design. As matters are at this
moment three-quarters of the new
books look more like some strange en
tree at a feast than like everyday edi
bles. You take up one, and it has the
air of a curious ragout; there are un
known fragments of design floating in
a sauce of queer elemental color. The
next one has an air as honest as apple
sauce at first glance ; 'tis a pale greenish
thing, but presently you see that the
trail of a serpent is over all its border.
And who can hope for content from a
dish thus garnished
Again a book, and this one burns
bright red and yellow, like a pudding
an fire with cognac, which is all very
well for a pudding. Another has a cover
which looks like a resisting beefsteak
pounded by the stern hand of fate in a
boarding house; another reminds you
irresistibly of coffee wherein c hickory
has tco much inserted its diluting aid
and cream is missing. But, first and
last, the new books are ever more prone
to resemble small plots of deceptive
stage verdure than honest, simple souled
bcoks. It is impossible to help doubt
ing the value of the literary pasturage
to be found in such inclosures. Fortu
nately one is sometimes most joyously
deceived. Authors have little "say"
concerning the garb of their volumes,
and. often-rrgood luck to them they
rise superior to the mechanical makers
of books and rejoice the souls cf their
readers in spite of the bindings.
And it must be repeated that in the
present bizarre and excessive fancies in
binding there is seed of abounding hope
for thefuture. Publishers are groping
far something; few of them know what.
But they will learn, and the world will
be made glad by a genuine revival in
the lovely old half forgotten craft of
bookbinding. In that happy coming day
there will be great honor far the men
who lead the taste of this country to
ward better things in bookbinding, sim
pler and saner and more sincere. Bos

I0E LITTLE POLES.
A ZOBO BAND.
Otrt of a Simple Instrsrssnt It Is Possible
to Hrin Sweet Ulelotlle.
A zobo is simply a hollow brass tube,
fashioned in the form of any sf the va
rious instruments of a brass band, hut
having no keys. The sound ia produced
by singing into the instrument. The
cm?! hams, fashioned to look like cor
nets, give to the human voice a sound
as nearly as possible resembling that of
a regular comet, with echo attachment,
played with the echo key down. The
cornets are intended to he played by
soprano voices, the tenor herns by the
altos and the heavier instruments, tram

bones, baritones and euphoniums, by the
tenor and bass voices. With the aid of
the zobo comet the voice can reach notes
that would make a grand opera prima
donna turn faint with envy, and with
the bass instruments a bass singer caT
defy all vocal traditions by going sev
eral notes lower than the lowest voice
note recorded.
The possibilities of the zobo as a
means of adding attractiveness to class
celebraticns became apparent recently
to Principal David K Gaddis, the enter
prising superintendent of Grammar
school No. 54, on One Hundred and
Fourth street, New York. A eefc of in
struments was obtained and a band of
boya and girls was formed under the di
rection of .Miss Ledge, who had made a
study of the zobo. It was found that aft
er four rehearsals the band made a cred
itable showing, and at the next exercises
in connection with the school the zobo
band was a feature that won delighted
plaudits. There are 22 members of the
band, including two drummers and a
drum major.
The novel band so pleased the leaders
of the Kdrcn mission at One Hundred
and Twenty-third street and First ave
nue that they decided to get up a zobc
entertainment, and this was done, the
performance proving a great success.
The bicyclists, being always on the
lookout for anything that will add
bright features to a wheelman's parade,
seized the zobo idea with avidity. The
Century Wheelmen of Philadelphia are
becoming famous in the Quaker City
for the clever zobo performances given
at their celebrations.
While it requires little practice to en
able a band to play selections fairly
well, it is possible to make really im
pressive music when the zobos are
"played" by fine singers. As the Cen
tury Wheelmen nicked their players
from among the best vocalists in the
organization the result has been partio
ularly satisfactory. New York Press.
