Plnittntloii Inl > oror IMot to Join the
HAVANA. Dec. 30. ( Via Key West , Fla. ,
Dee 31. ) Details have boon received from
Spanish sources ot a conspiracy against
Spanish rule , said to have been discovered
la the province of Plnar del Rio. It Is
narrated that l.BOO men employed In the field
of Clay , Brock & Co. , tobacco growers , who
had been , disarmed , conspired to Join the
Insurgents. Their leaders have been Impris
oned In Moro castle.
On Christmas night there were riots similar
to those which occurred at Havana , Matan-
zas and other towns. The demonstrations
were Intended as a protest against autonomy.
At Matanzas crowds cheered for the United
States. President McKlnley and annexation.
A majority of the conservative mayors have

centradocs have organized la western Cuba.
Ho also expresses regret at the Buffering
endured by the Insurgents In the field.
Dr. Dclfin calls attention , in theDlaro do
la Marina , to the necessity of sending about
fifty ph > slclans Into the Interior ot the Is
land , provided with medicine chests and
vaccine. This step , he says , la to save from
certain death Innumerable human beings
who are dying of hunger ana neglect. Dr.

In the holloa stalks of the yuccas and

sagacious bird lia somehow found this out

Thtn It fills up the stalks solidly and
leaves Its stores there until needed.

KALU niVER , Massl , Bcc. 31. Meetings
of five of the labor orgiivUitlons ot the city
were held last night , nnd , with the excep
tion ot thoeb ticld by the weavers , largely
atlcnUcd. la all , eave the mulcsplnners * as
sociation , the sentiment , whllo marked by ft
stronger strlko fecllnR than the loaders had
been led to expect , was In favor of accept
ing the wage reduction for the present. The
Mnncrs were hot fern strlko and had a
vote been taken would have voted over-
whelmlnRly to leave their mules. The lead
ers found ttoat It was dangerous to attempt
to urge too strongly the acceptance of the
conference commlltee'a resolution , and after
a heated discussion decided upon a post
ponement ot all action uutll Saturday after
noon. At the Saturday afternoon meeting
balloting will I'.jln ot 2 o'clock. The roll of
mills will bo called alphabetically , beginning
with the American linen and continuing
through the rest of the list. Voting will bo
confined to financial members only , end , ac
cording to the bylaws ot the union , It will
require a two-thirds vote of the membws to
order a strike. A mooting ot tno association
will be held In the evening tc. cear ttio result
ot the voting and os there are some mills
In which notices hiivo not- yet been posted
the question as to whether or not the spinners
In them are to bo called out will bo con
sidered.
The slzo of the weavers' union compelled
the holding of meetings In various parts of
the city and the results were quickly ob
tained. They voted to accept t'.io reduction
for the present by a majority ot 153 out of
S09 votes cast. The loaders wcro surprised
at the strength of the strlko sentiment. Out
of a total of 145 members ot the slashers'
union over 100 wcro present and the dis
cussion was heated. The vote was finally
taken aud stood 04 to 42 for acceptance of
the committee resolution. The meeting of
the spoolers , nnd warpers was largely at
tended and the feeling among the girls was
strongly In favor of a strike. The leaders
urRcd them to wait ana the vote taken ro-
auUeil in the acceptance of Ifoo resolution
SS to 07. The mooting of the mill firemen
was held at two different times. The night
men voted to accept the resolution. The day
men , after considerable discussion , voted GO
to 30 to strike , but later reconsidered the
vote anil decided to accept for the present.
The strlko feeling In all of the unions Is
much stronger than has been anticipated.
The loom fixers and machinists will meet
tonight and It Is expected that the former
will vote to strlko. The tame result Is al
most a foresono conclusion In the spinners'
union. On the whole the strlko outlook Is
stronger -than at cny tlmo since the first an
nouncement cf the reduction , although the
strike , If ordered , may not Include all classes
of help.
PROVIDENCE , II. I. ; Dec. 31' That the
Rhode Island cotton mills will cut wages Is
now assured. A proruinont cotton manu
facturer aays there Is 'nothing else left for
the manufacturers to do and. that action will
bo taken In a few days. . othlng definite
can bo learned regarding the probable action
of Rhode Island owners'of Connecticut mills ,
but It is to bo presumed that the policy of
Rhjdo Island will bo adopted by the Con
necticut mills. i.
NE y BEDFORD. . Mass , , Dec. 31. The
owners ot the cotton clcth and weaving mills
In lihlu city have voted1 to post notices of a
10 per cent reduction ln > wages , to take effect
January 17. It Is understood the reauctlcn
will apply to all salaries. The cut will affect
nearly 10,000 operatives.
It Is understood that as yet the cut IB
made caly in the cloth mill , the yarn mill
treasurers not having ibeon ai party to tbo
mcetlnga. What their action will be Is not
stated. The cut will affect the treasurers ,
overseers and superintendents. The firms af

Mathew Hart , secretary of the weavers ,
when asked to express ] ea opinion of the
cut down , said : "I do not believe the weav
ers of New Bedford will stand It. There lo
not a single mill In * New Bedford that can
not to proven bjus to have paid at the
very least 15 per cent during the last year. "
BOSTON. Dec. 31. The action of the col-
tca manufacturers In New Bedford and
Rhode Island In deciding to Join the move
ment at a lower wage scale In January ,
which was Inaugurated by the big corpora
tions ot Fall River , makes" the reduction
practically a general ono throughout the New
England states. Cotton mills In , Fall River ,
Lowell , Manchester , Salem , Suncook N. II. ,
and a number of mailer places , have al
ready posted notices of a reduction ranging
trom 10 per cent to 111-9 per cent. In New
Bedford It lo understood the cut down ap
plies ID the cloth mills only. As far as
known today the reduction la all the mill
centers applies to treasurers , superintend
ents , overseers and clerks , as well as to the
spinners and other operatives.
MONTREAL. Dec. 31. Whllo the cotton
mills In the New England statca are In a
very bad way. owing to the kera competi
tion of the southern mills , the Canadian
mills are doing and have done a lively trade.
The knitting mills have turned envious eyes
upon the cottcn mills , and they have at
tributed the great success ot the latter to
the combine existing In the Industry. So
the knitting mills pcoplo think that they
will try a combination also. Prices must
bo put up and the output regulated. As the
Canadian wool crop was smaller thla year
than last , end ns prices have ibecn too low
for any decent business for a long time , the
wool men have taken advantage of the
shorter supplies and the larger demand to
put up prices. Thla naturally affects the
knitting .mills. Their raw material Is more
expensive now , and they think the tlmo bos
come to better their position all around.
PROVIDENCE , n. I. , Dec. 31. After delay.
Ing their decision to the last In the hope that
In the meantime things might change so as
to render the step unnccwuary , the agents of
the leading cotton manufacturing corpora
tions In this state decided today to rcducu
wages.
The cut down will average about 11 per
cent. It will take effect January 17 , cnA

The business man was very much occupied
when ono of his acquaintances came In re
lates the Detroit Free Prcfs ,
"I want to ask you , " began the caller , tut
the other , without looking up , waved one
hand back of him and reduced the friend
to silence. After -waiting half a minute the
visitor tried again.
"I won't take much of your time" he
said. "Tills Is something too Important to
bo neglected or I a go away and come
again. "
"I suppose there's no ueo of my trytn5
to through with this
get before dark nnv-
how , " was the- rejoinder , with a sigh '
"I'm sorry Us necessary to Interrupt
you. "
"Oh , It's all right. When I come to think
of It , I wouldn t know whether 1 had the
right answer when I got through. "
"You could easily have the bookkeencr
verify It. couldn't jou ? "
"No. I tried the ( bookkeeper on It. He
didn't know any more about It than , I did. "
"Isn't It anything connected with busi
ness ? "
"No. If It were I'd be- comparatively se
rene. Business Isn t the only thing In life. "
"It's a great deal ot It. though. ' '
The calculator rang for the otllco boy and
when ho appeared said , "Thomas , you take

Ing to hla friend with the air of a crcss-
qucstloncr , ho said !
"Why do men engage ! n business ? "
"To make money. "
"And what do we want with money ? W
want Independence and respect. Wo want
to feel that wo can hold up our heads lu
the world and not be obliged to face hu
miliation. The purposes of this calculation ,
distant from business though It may be ,
are the earnc. I have a boy who has done
well 1m his studies and \\lio docs mo the
honor to ask my advice every once In a

It's Impossible for their fathers to know
very much , owing to the misfortunes they
labored under In not having the same school
teachers. Thla boy of mine remarked yes
terday that ho wca going to take up cube
root toiay. Have you tried to extract any
cube roots since you left school"
The caller answered In the negative.
"Then you don't know how much you
have forgotten. It's a heap easier to learn
to extract a cube root In tbo llMt place than
It Is to remember It apiln , after you have
gotten out of practice. Hut I'm going to

All accounts I have read about elder
ducks , says a writer In Good Words , say
that nests are robbed of their down twice ,
the duck supplying It each tlmo from her
own body ; the third tlmo the drake gives
his white down , and this U allowed to re
main. But I was told by farmers In Ice
land that now they never take the down
until the little ones are hatched. It has
been found that the birds thrive better and
Increase faster when they are allowed to
llvo as nature meant them to do. So no\
the poor mothers nro no longer obliged to
strip themselves of all their down to rafur-
nlsh their despoiled ncsU. Sometimes It Ihcs
quantity Is very great a llttlo may be taken ,
but enough must bo left to cover the eggs
when the duck leaves her nest for food.
A writer upon Iceland. In speaking of a
visit to ono of the Isafjord farms , wrote :
"On the coast was a wall built ot large
stones , just above high Avater level , about
three feet high and of considerable thick
ness at the bottom. On both sides of It al.
ternat.o stones .had been left out so as to form
a series' of square compartments for the
ducks to make their nests In. Almost every
compartment was occupied , and as wewalked
along the shore a line of ducks Hew out , ono
after another. Tha house was a marvel ; the
earthen -walls that surround It and the win
dow embrasures were occupied with duck-s.
On the ground the house was fringed with
ducks. On the turf slopes of the roof we
could see ducks , and ducks sat on the
scraper. "
About 10,000 poupds ot eiderdown nre
gathered annually In Iceland , 7.000 being ex
ported to foreign countries. Formerly the
peasants used to receive over 21 shillings
a pound , but the price has now fallen to
halt that amount. The oca&ants seldom re
ceive money , and are obliged to barter their
down for merchandise furnished by the
Danish merchants at the llttlo settlements
at the fjords. A pound and a half of down
Is enough to fill an ordinary bed-puff. These
very comfortable articles are found In the
cuest room of every Iceland farm , however
poor and email It may be. After a long , hard
day In the saddle t'je traveler longs for
warmth and shelter. These llttlo guest rooms
have never had a. fire In them , and built , as
they are , on the ground , there Is a dreadful
chill In them. Onso tucked away In bed ,
andtlred : bones lose their pains and stiffness ,
however , and well covered with the down-
puff , a delightful sense of comfort follows ,

Ho walked up and down the roam In a
very ccstacy of Joy , relates the Chicago Post ,
and yet there was an element of doubt In
It all. Was It not too good to last ?
"Mine ! " ho said. "All mine ! "
"Gold , silver or coal mine ? " nsked his
chum.
"Oh , laugh at mo If you want to , " ex
claimed the enthusiastic one. "I can stand
It. U will not detract from my joy from
that pleasing sense of possession. She has
promised to bo mine. "
, .xV ° u' , ls thlt a117" "turned the chum.
"
"Nothing but a love affair , Is It ? I thought
It was something of somq Importance. "
"Importance ! " cried the lover.Don't you
think It Is of some Importance to win the
best girl In the world ? "
"But there are so many best girls In the
world. " protested the chum. "Men are al
ways winning them , you know. "
"Ah , but there never was the equal of this
ono. I tell you I am the happiest man In the
world. I have won her love from a man
who was In a position to offer her cverj
luxury who had golden eagles to my pcn >
nUs and now my only fear Is that I may
not bo nblo to keep It. i I have seen so many
cases where love has como and gem-- . "
"I wouldn't let that worry me , ' returned
the chum , putting at his cigar meditatively.
"If you are oitlafled that you really have
her love the question ) of keeping It becomes
a very simple one. " i
"Unquestionably , If ono cares enough
about keeping It to do what Is necessa'-y. "
'Ah , but does It ? "
"Thero Is nothing that I would not do to
accomplish that. "
"Then let her marry the other fellow. I've-
never known that to fall. "
Yet the lover -would not do It However

POOR FARM FUNDING ISSUE IN CRUCIBLE
AVII1 Vndcrlnljp to Kn
tnhlUh the IrKiillty of the liiHtru-
incntn nud Then Sec What
I -Mil } : He Done. , ,
The Board of County Commissioners pro
poses to taho steps that will forever
settle the question ot the legality ot the
$180,000 ot poor farm funding bonds voted
nt the last election , eold to Parson Leach
& Co. of Chicago and refused by them.
Special Attorney Ueckclt lias recom
mended that ttto bonds bo taken
to Lincoln next Monday and bo
presented to the state auditor for registra
tion. If that official concludes to register
the bonds It will settle In the minds ot the
commissioners the question of their legality.
H ho does not register them mandamus pro
ceedings will bo brought In the supreme
court compelling him to do so. If tbo court
grants , the writ It Is contended that the
legality of the bonds can never bo ques
tioned again , but It the writ is denied then
and In that event the commissioners will
understand that the bonds nro worthless and
their future action will bo governed accord
ingly.
It the audltcr registers the bonds , or If the
supreme court grants the writ ot mandamus
and compels a registration U Is not certain
what actlcti tlio commissioners will take with
reference to requiring the Chicago firm to
llvo up to the terms of Us contract. How
ever , there Is on Inclination upon the part
of the members of the board that suit should
bo brought against Parson , Leach & Co. to
torco them Into carrying out the terms of
thrlr contr.ut.
The commissioners say that they sold the
bonds In good faith and ; that the purchasers
should show the same good faith In taking
they contracted to purchase and pay for.

I was having my last college vacation ,
says a .writer . In the Detroit Free Press , anil
thought It would bo iileasant to nlr the
charms of a senior among' seine of the
country relatives whom I had not seen for
years. I wrote nn aunt of the prospective
honor In store for her and received a
prompt answer urging mete come. It was
a lonff ride ntul 1 fortltlcd mypclf for the
trlj ) with a lot oC literature that had no
bearing upon cither my scientific or classical
stiulloH. AVhcn I entered the parlor car I
met my old chum , Ilattley , who hastily
Introduced me to Ills friend , Xllss Harwell ,
Rolng homo to spend the summer months.
She was ns distinguished looking a young
woman as you ever encounter , oven , on the
best lines of travel , and I felt as proud of
her ns I did of myself.
What pleased me most after brief ac
quaintance was her appreciation ot my
humor. I told her inhere I was going and
what I expected to encounter. Kncour-
agcd by her evident enjoyment , I even drew
a picture of my aunt In a quaint cup , a
dress that was made from a pattern ot
forty years ago , n courtesy stiffened by the
formality of former days ami a hospitality
distinguished by a deslro to Impress mo
with her accomplishments as a house
keeper. I reproduced the smirks of the
country maidens nnd the awkward gal-
lantrlos ot the country swains I nnlnnrcrl
the picture ) till she begged me. to stop that
she might have time to recover her breath
and her color. I was never before quite as
well sitlsticd with1 myself.
She accompanied mo the whole way , got
oft at the same station , kissed my aunt ,
entered the same carriage with me , AVJIH
driven to the same house and gave me a
cousinly welcome nt the door. I have no
story to tell of how she twitted mo or how
she pointed out the differences between the
fanciful picture I had drawn nnd the de
lightful reality. She graciously left mo to
the whips and scorpions of my own con
science , and was simply angelic In her con
solations as one after another of those
"country girls" declined the honor of 'my
hand. I had all the egotism knocked out
of me , and I'm a timid , unassertive bachelor
