8 tit ii Praise for Admiral Sampson From * ' English and French Sources. SANTIAGO A FATAL MISTAKE. A Ilrltlnli Kxpert Think* That the Span lull Meet I» Sotv at u Disadvantage—A Change In Fr.-ii.-h Sentlinent —Spain llurlded l.y Fronilnent I'apers. ( Losnes. May 23.—According to the host expert opinion in I,ondon, if Ad miral Corvera has gone to Santiago de Cuba, he lias made a fatal mistake. ! Vice Admiral Philip Howard > Columb, retired, the author of a number of naval works, in cluding "Tho Naval War Uarac,” writes that he is convinced the Span ish admiral is now unlikely to strike at all. He adds that if he enters a South Cuban port it will scarcely affect the United States’ blockade, for Hear Admiral Sampson will only have to de tach a some nil at superior force of liis heavier ships to cover Ccrvcras fleet, while a group of the lightest und swiftest vessels would be watching to see that he did not move without being reported, and all the rest of Hear Ad miral Sampson s fleet could devote themselves to the blockade of the other Cuban ports. Nkw Yohk, May 23. — A dispatch from Paris to the New York World says: There are remarkable indications in certain Paris journals, hitherto in imical, of a complete reversal of the French disposition toward America. The (iauiois, for example, extols the cleverness with which Admiral Samp son has maneuvered, taking advantage of his opponent's slowness to effect a junction with Schley and thus enable him to divide the forces in two parts. M. Jaures, in the Petite Hcpublique, writes in the same strain of America's (itlnob nn/1 ilo/iinun IdliinK have been directed with energy and life." M. Jaurea derides Spain for allowing herself to be made the sport of clerical lam and militarism. There is also a strong article in the Echo de Paris, signed Henry Jinure, calling French hostility to her ancient friends and clients lieyond the Atlantic foolish and illogical. 5 “France," the writer says, “is nat urally drawn to America as a republic, and should not give way to sudden ten ' derncss for Spain." On the other hand, Henry Fouquier, in the Dixncuvleme Siecle, writes in a vein hardly short of insulting to Amer ican women for their alleged snobbish ness in seeking to make out a long line of aristocratic ancestors. ENEMY’S LOSS AT CARDENAS. m _. Two SjxuiUh <• tin boat* Destroyed by Shell* From the Wilmington. Kky Wkst, Fla., May 23.—The tug Leyden, Ensign W. S. Crosslcy, com mander, which picked up off Cay Pie r dras light Wednesday night an open boat containing live Cubans, one of whom, Ernest Castro, had important dispatches from General Gomez to Gen eral Miles, put the other four ashore at the east end of Cay bianco last night. Castro proceeded to Tampa to deliver H| his messages. The Cubans put ashore had given the officers of the tug considerable infor mation regarding the situation in Car denas, where they lived, since the bat b. tie in which tire torpedo boat Winslow was disabled and the first American officer and sailors lost their lives. The Spaniards' loss in the battle, the Cu bans said, was one officer killed and five men wounded. The officer's head was blown off. As the result of the battle there are no longer any Span ifi 1041 ^ UlllA'dlO *1* KUV WI donas. Two of those that were there were destroyed hy the shells from the Wilmington, and from the third one the guns have been removed and re mounted on the dock behind a stone wall built to protect them. The Span iards, the Cubans said, have sunk three lighters in the passage where the Winslow went through the day of the battle. The Leyden landed Insurgents again KL last night without any molestation from shore. When picked up by the Leyden, the Cubans had been out six days waiting to lie picked up and were nearly exhausted while their Issit was all but ready to swamp. THEY ARE SPARTANS IN SPAIN.

Havana, May 0, via Vera Cruz. May 23.—The Spanish officers say all the strategic points about the coast have l-een occupied by troops and that it will be difficult to effect landings. Ambus cades have also lieen prepared at vari ous [stints, and they say Havana is so well fortified that an army of 50,000 men will be needed to re duce the place. New entrench ments have been thrown up, and more heavy artillery has been mounted, but it is diffieult to ob tain any accurate details of such work. Any inquiries on the subject are liable to cause the arrest of the person put ting the question, and newspaper men, particularly correspondents, are con tinually under suspicion. They are carefully watched and it is only with the greatest difficulty that mall letters can bo smuggled out of the city. The censor is more exacting than ever anil any news which he allows to be cabled is strictly official. The guards yes terday captured a man who was going out In a small fishing boat with mail for the American fleet ami the writer is informed that he was shot the same afternoon. The I’ais, organ of the Autonomist party, says great misery prevails at Mantan/.as and at Carilenas anil other towns on account of the scarcity of provisions, and the paper adds that the country people are now in worse con dition than they ever were before. All sorts of misleading rumors are inten tionally circulated by the Spanish offi cials here for their own purposes and the tales of Spanish repulses of Ameri can forces come in at almost regular intervals and from nearly every point about the blockaded portion of the coast to say nothing of the stories of brilliant Spanish victories, which are said to have reached here from abroad. For instance, to-day a rumor traced to the paluce said: ‘’The Spanish fleet, after a heroic defensive battle with an American neet at i avite. i iiiiippiiic islands, lost two vessels and about 300 killed anil 400 wounded, after which the Spanish officers, refusing a surren der. and in order to prevent the Span ish fleet from falling into the hands of the Americans, blew up all the rest of their vessels.” The palace report also said the American fleet at Manila was bom barding that city anil that, in conse quence, the Spanish authorities and the garrison of Manila had retreated into the interior. Later the following ‘•official news" was published: “A Spanish fleet has fought heroic ally with an American fleet at ('avite, obliging the American fleet to retreat with considerable loss. The Spanish losses were also very heavy.” Of course, the greatest interest is taken here in the approaching meeting between Spanish and American fleets in these waters. The fleet from Spain is expected at almost any moment and is being constantly watched for. Day and night signals are ready to guide it safely into the harbor. It is expected that the result of the battle will de cide the war, and it is impossible to make the Spaniards doubt the eventual triumph of the flag of their country. THE MONTSERRAT IN SPAIN. Hlockadn Kunner* Given an Ovation on Their Keturn Home. Couitf.VNA, Spain, May 23.—The Spanish auxiliary cruiser Montserrut arriv'd here unexpectedly last evening from Cienfuegos, having escaped the American blockading ships. Large crowds of people thronged the quays and members of the crew received an ovation when they went ashore. The people embraced the cap tain and officers of the steamer. 1’op ular demonstrations followed through out the city. The commander of the Montserrat declared that he was not c harged with any mission ana sam ne was not carrying dispatches, but the Spaniards claim that he is patriotically concealing the facts in the case. The Montserrat is to be sent to Fer rol or Cadiz in order to have her guns mounted. Madrid, May 23.—It is asserted here that the, Montserrat lauded 83.UOO.OUO, 1,000 soldiers, 100 guns. 15,000 rifles and a quantity of ammunition in Cuba. ORDERED ft) MOVE. Thin!

O LADY AYLMER took the letter anil read It. "H'm.” she muttered. "I’m afraid the wish Is father to the thought, my dear boy," she said, dry ly. "It’s true I had a touch of toothache or neu r a 1g 1 a about a week ago, entirely because be was con sumed with gout—though, mind, he declares stoutly that he hasn’t tad the gout for more than three months—and persisted In having the window open all the way from Leicester. Rut as for my health or any one’s health but his own giving him a moment's anxiety— why, the Idea Is ludicrous, simply lu dicrous. The gravest anxiety, Indeed. H’m! If I were lying at the point of death, his lordship might be anxious till the breath was out of my body." "That was Just what I said to—to myself," said Dick, who had been on the very point of uttering his wife’s name. “However, Lady Aylmer, I am very glad to And that you are all right and In good health." "Thank you, Dick,” »he replied, holding out her hand to him; then, af ter a moment’s silence, she suddenly burst out, “Dick, what Is he after?" "Lord Aylmer? I don’t know,” Dick answered. “He is after something: I’ve known It for weeks, but I cannot make out what," Lady Aylmer went on. "First, by his persistence that he has not got lue guui. a nave uecu luaimu tv* iu*« a great many years, but I never knew him deliberately deny himself the pleasure of gloating over his gout be fore. He must mean something by it. I thought, of course,” she went on, with a nonchalant air, "that there was somebody eUe. Hut his anxiety about my health, and his desire to pack you off to India, where he knows you don’t want to go, make one think differently. In any case, go to the library and see him, and whatever you do, my dear est boy, don’t Irritate him. Don’t con tradict him; tell him at once that you don’t want to go to India—that is, If you really don’t want to do so; but If he Insists, take my roost serious ad vice and temporize—put the time on anyhow—tell him you must have a week In which to consider the Idea.” “Yee, I’ll do that,” said Dick, rising. "Stay, we had better send to him flret,” said Lady Aylmer, touching the button of the bell. "Yes. Jenkins, tell Lord Aylmer that Mr. Aylmer is here and wishes to see him.” “Best to treat him in the Imperial way that satisfies him,” said her lady ship to Dick, as the man closed the door behind him. "I always do It when I want to make him a little more hu man than usual. I don’t do It at other times, because he is eminently a per son with whom familiarity breeds con tempt." Dick laughed outright "Very well, I will be most careful,” he replied; then added, "It’s awfully good of you to give me a good tip out of your ex perience. I have never been able to hit It off with his lordship yet. Per haps I shall be more fortunate this time." “You may be. You know, of course, Dick, that it was your steady refusal to marry Mary Annandale that set him so thoroughly against you.” “Mary Annaudale's rnonsy,” correct ad Dick. "Ah! yea. It fa the same thim?,” carelessly. “But I don’t believe Mary Annandale would have had me," Dick declared. "Perhaps not. Still, you never gave her a chance, did you? Now, of course, It is too late." "Very much too late,” returned Dick, promptly, and grinning good humoredly at the remembrance of how very much too late It was for him to build up the fortunes of the house of Aylmer by rneaus of a rich wife. He turned as the door opened agnln. “His lordship will be pleased to see you In the library, sir," said Jenkins. “1 will come,” said Dick. “And good lurk go with you,” said Ijrdy Aylmer, kindly, as he went. “Come back and tell me how you get on." Poor Dick! he did not get on very well. He found Lord Aylmer sitting In a big chair In the library, looking ominously bland. "Oood morning, sir,” said Dick. “Oh, goed morning, Dick; «H down, my boy,” rejoined Laird Aylmer, quite tenderly. Dick gave himself up for lust at ones, but h« sat down and waited fur "the old savage1' to go on with the (onversallon for a minute or so Lml Aylmer did not speak; he moved his left foot uaeaally, In a way distinctly vuggeatlvs o, gouty twinges, an I fid geted a lints wuh his rings and hta finger-nails “You got my latter.” he remarked at lest "Yas I did. sir; that brought ms here," LHch answered. "Ah that’s al right," said the old U-rd, Is a sstf-sauefied bw ‘Orewt piece of Itsch lor ven my hoy. great pie, e of (Wck I rouldl’t have got It tsr any sue slot la M L rather tan sy Harry Ho) a to* b*d aumewdj sUe In his eye, though, of course, he couldn't very well refuse me. Still, of course, 1 had to tell him you were dev ilish anxious for the appointment.” “But I’m not devilish anxious for the appointment,” Dick broke in at last. “I’m not anxious for it at all.” For a minute or two the old man looked at him In profound amazement. “Damme, sir, do you mean to say you’re going to turn round on me after all the trouble I’ve taken for you? Damme, sir, do you mean to tell mo that?” "Not exactly that,” answered Dick, still keeping Lady Aylmer's advice In his mind, but-” “Then what do you mean, sir?” roar ed the old man, losing his temper al together. "I mean this,” said Dick, firmly; "up to now I have, as you know, always Bet my face against going to India. I hate and loathe the very idea of It. England Is good enough for me, and I went lnlo the Forty-third on purpose that I might not have to go to India, or lose a lot of seniority. What I want to know Is this; What has made you take a lot of trouble, and put your self under an obligation to Lord Skev verslelgh. In order to bring about what you know would be utterly distasteful to me?” I»rd Aylmer looked at Dick as If words had failed him, but presently he found his tongue and used It free ly. "Damme, sir,” be roared, “do you mean to accuse me of any sneaking, second-hand motives? ’Pon my soul, sir, I’ve a good mind to write to Lord * * ri onriftu uuu onn inui iu luiioiu' er the appointment refuged. But gay,” as he gaw by Dick's face that this would be the most desirable course he could take, "I will do no such thing. Demme, sir. I’ve had about enough of your airs and graces. Hark you, and mark what I say! To India you go, without another word; or I cut off j'our allowance from this day week, every penny of It. As you yourself said Just now, I go to a lot of trouble for •you, put myself under a great obliga tion to a friend In order to serve you, and all the return I get for It Is that you get on your high horse and ac cuse me of second-hand motives. Darnme, sir, It’s Intolerable—simply Intolerable. And I suppose you think I don’t know why you want to shirk a year or two In India, eh?” ”1 don’t understand you, sir,” said Dick, with Icy civility. “No, no, of course not. And you think I didn’t see you the other night at the Criterion, and mopping your eyes over ’David Oarrlck’ afterward. Bah! you must think I’m a fool.” For a moment Dick was startled, but he did not show it by his manner In the least. “Well, sir.” he said quietly. “WHAT DO YOU MEAN, SIR?” “I have never been In the habit of ask ing your permission to take a lady to a theater.” “No,” the old savage snarled In re turn; "nor when you wanted to start housekeeping In Palace Mansions, either.” “No, sir,” said Dk-k, firmly; “nor when I wanted to start housekeeping, either." “And that was why you refused to marry Mary Annandais?” Lord Ayl mer snapped. "Not nt all. I refmrd to ask Miss Annandale to marry m»* because I did not cure about .Miss Annandale." "Bah!” grunted the old man. In n fury. “I suppose you believe In all I that rot about marrying for love.” "Most certainly 1 do." “And you mean to do It?" “I don’t mean to msrry anybody at present,” said Dick, coolly. Ho felt i more of a sneak than he h id ever felt In all hi* life, to leave the old Rtnn In hit belief that hta dear little Do* | rt-thy was Ura to him than she was, j yet he knew that for her sake, for the I sake of her actual bodily welfare, be j could not afford to have an open dec j lar».tton of war Just then. Sneak or no sneak, be must manage to pul tbe I time on a little until the child had j come, and all waa well with Dorothy. laird Aylmer ruse from hie chair la I a rage of tottering fury. “Lletea It j me, eir.” he thundered; “It may he all j very pretty and Idyllic and nil that, j hot you wouldn’t marry the woman I ! choee for you, an t now you shall go to India tw pay for It. It's no use your l thinhiug you have nay choice la the metier you haven’t I had enough of | »« ur eacueee and your shllly shallying, and all your puling sentlmehtaltty ! love, and all the reel of it. What do | you weal with !«»«?” { ”| believe you married for o»%* your self, str." suggested Dick, ta his ia«4 eat tones. "And repented It before three months' bed gone over my head, and have gone on repenting ever since,” the old man snarled. “Damme, sir, that woman is never tired of throwing It at me. II I’d married her for her money she couldn't very well have thrown that at me—been a fool If she had.” There was a moment’s silence; then the old lord went on again, "Look here, Dick, you've got to make up your mind to one thing—I mean you go to India, so you may as well go with a good grace.” "I'll think It over," said Dick. ‘‘I want an answer now.” irritably. "That's Impossible, sir, unless you like to take no for an answer, right away,” Dick replied firmly. "I suppose you want to talk the matter over with the young lady In i Palace Mansions,” said the old lord, In his most savage tones. “I don't think that would Interest you, whether I did or not,” said Dick, coldly; “but one thing is very certain, which is that I am not going to India without thinking the whys and where fores thoroughly over. I will come again on Friday and tell you my In tentions.” “And you'll bear In mind that a re fusal of the appointment cuts oft your allowance at once.” ”1 will bear everything in mind," said Dick, steadily; and then he shut the door, leaving the old man alone. “Well?'' cried Lady Aylmer, when he looked Into the little boudoir again. "How did you get on?” "We didn't get on at all,” Dick an swered. “He means me to go to India by hook or by crook.” ' "And I wonder,” said my lady thoughtfully, “what It Is that he has In hlB mind. No good, I’m afraid.’’ CHAPTER XVII. FTER this inter view It was Dick's pleasant task to go some ana leu uis news to bts wife. It bad to be done; It was useless his trying to shirk It, because D o r o thy knew why and where he had gone, and was too eager to hear the result of his visit to his uncle to let him even light a cigar ette In peace, until she had heard all that there was to hear; in fact, at soon as he put his key Into the door she flew out to meet him. “Dick, Is It good news?" she cried eagerly. Now Dick could not honestly nay that It was good news, but then he did not wish to tell her how bad It was all at once; so he gently prevari cated, kissed her with even more than his usual tenderness, and asked her '.f she had been very dull without him and whether he had been too long away. His well-meaning prevarication had exactly the opposite effect to that which he had Intended. Dorothy’s sen sitive heart went down to zero at once, and the comers of her sweet Ups drooped ominously. “Oh, Dick, It is lead news," she said, mournfully, “and you are trying to hide It from me.” “No, no, I am not,” he said, hurried ly, “but there’s no need to tell all our private affairs out here for everybody to hear." “But there Isn't any everybody," said Dorothy; “there’s only Barbara." In spite of his anxiety Dick burst out laughing. “Come In here, my darling," he said, drawing her toward the draw ing-room; "and you shall give me a cup of tea while I tell you all about It.” "And you’ve not promised to go?" she asked, as she began to make the tea. “No, don’t trouble, Dick, dear, it Is lighted, and the water will boll In two minutes.” (To be Continued.)

The Interest centers about a real live hen of feath ers, her chicks and her eggs. The party originated In this fashion: A young bride and groom took a house In the suburbs and went to housekeep ing.
