THE WRONG MAN THIS
TIME.
Washington, April 17.-The case of
the Rev. Alberto Jesus Diaz, an Amer?
ican citizen, who was reported as being
arrested at, Habana for alleged counec
tion with the insurgents, carne before
the department of state to-day. The
department immediately cabled the
consul general at Habana to take the
usual steps for bis protection and fair
trial.
THE BAPTISTS AROUSED.
Atlanta, April 17.-A million and a
half Baptists will soon be demanding
the release of Rev A. J. Diaz, the
Cuban evangelist, who has been arrest?
ed and imprisoned by Gen. Weyler.
Rev. T. F. Tichenor, corresponding
secretary of the Southern Baptist con?
vention, issued an address to-day to tbe
Baptists of the South. In it he calls
on the denomination to raise a fund lo
defend Diaz, and to care for him and
his family. Dr. Tichenor says that
Diaz will not dare to touch a mouthful
of food prepared io the Spanish prison
for fear of being poisoned.
The Baptists of this section, and
they are numerous, are aroused by tbe
news of the arrest and will appeal at
once to the state department to inter?
fere.
Diaz is an American citizen. He
was a patriot of .the revolution 20
years ago. To escape arrest, he threw
himself into the sea, hoping to drift to
shore at nightfall. But he floated so far
out that be could not get back. A pass?
ing ship picked him up and carried him
to New York. He was converted in this
country, joined the Baptist church, and
returned to Cuba as an evangelist. He
has done a great work there and has
greatly endeared himself to the Baptists
of the States.
Release Papers Secured
Philadelphia, April 17.-The filibus
tering steamer Bermuda has finally se- j
cured British papers of release, British
Consul Clipperton has yielded to the
efforts made to induce him to regularly
enter the vessel in the consulate regis?
try, and given the noted craft a clean
bill of health.
All objections against the vessel has
been withdrawn under orders from the
British government.
The crew were paid off to day and
claims against the vessel satisfied with?
out further delay. Oo Monday she
will sail for Puerto Cortez in command
of Captain Hughes, who has succeeded
Captain O'Brien in command of the
vessel.
Very Significant.
London, April 17.-A dispatch
from Rome to the Pall Mall Gazette
says that Monsignor Cretoni, papal
nuncio to Madrid, has been instruct?
ed to propose to the Spanish govern?
ment that Spain accept the media?
tion of the pope, or, failing that to
endeavor to secure the acceptance of
Spain lo the mediation of the United
States, to the end of obtaining the
pacification of Cuba
Henry Clay once said\ to Mrs. i
President Polk : "Madam, I never j
beard anything but praise of your ad j
ministration, though occasionally I !
have heard some slight objections to
your husband's."
Persons holding accident insurance ?
policies will be glad to learn that,
their death will be considered ac?

A Missouri court has established the
precedent.
Montana's production of gold last I
year amounted to ?4,327,040. an I
increase over 1894 of $616,000, i
which is a heavy percentage. It is j
the same story the world over and a ;
featuie of finance which economists!
are watching with interest.

Two Lives Saved.
Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction City, 111
was told by her doctors she had Consumption ?
and that there was no hope for her, but two ! ]
bottles Dr. King's New Discovery completely j
cured her and shs says it saved ker life. Mr :
I
Thos. Eggers, 139 Florida St San Francisco'
suffered from a dreadful cold, approaching ?
Consumption, tried without result everything !
else then bough: one bottle of Dr. King's Nmv
Discovery and in two weeks was cured, lie is .
naturally thankful, lt is such results ul
which these are samples, that prove the
wonderful efficacy of this medicine in Coughs 1
and Colds. Free trial Rotilcs at J. F. V/

Would be Interesting. - "I dim
no," said the gripman ot' the cable
car, as he toyed with thc brake. "1
dunno about it, after all "
"About what ?" inquired the talka?
tive passenger.
'.About this new woman business.
I'd hate to see them doing the work
that men are drawing salaries f ?r at
rthe present time. But just out o'
'curiosity I'd almost be willing to give
up my situation."
"You would like to see how the
experiment would work, eh ?"
"Yes. I'd like to see just what a
lady gripman would do or say ii she
was 16 minutes behindhand on the
trip, with a car full or passengers to
unload, and a lady passenger was to
s^and with one foot on the step taking
her time to give her friend a receipt
to make raspberry jam.''
A farmer writes that 25 years ago
he split white oak posts for his
garden fence, putting a peck of air
slacked lime around each, and they
are all good yet. He attributes their
good condition to the effect of the
lime, iii which he is doubtles correct.
It has been said that a board that has
been used in a mortar bed, and thor?
oughly saturated with lime is almost
indestrucible from decay.
A hatchet was found a few days ago
completely imbedded in trie trunk
of a tree cut down in Cheboygan
county, Michigan. The wood had
grown over it so that it was invisible
from the outside. It bore the name
of Robert La Salle, the French ex?
plorer, the date, 1665, and the Latin
inscription, "Ad Majorem Deai
Gloriam," the motto of the Jesuit or?
der to which La Salle belonged, ggjgg
Give a man brains and riches and
he is a king ; give a man brains with?
out riches, and he is a slave ; give a
man riches without brains, and he is
a monkey.
