IT is presumed that the Populiatic drama, "The Curse of Gold," draws its inspiration from profane history.

JOHN L. SULLIVAN, in that lJoston lecture in Cuba's behalf, may be expected to deliver some striking remarks.

CKAWFOTCDSVILLK needs fewer goods box statesmen and more hustlers. This double barreled want is not peculiar to the town.

THE men who are abusing McKinley to-day are the same men who abused Lincoln in 18(31. They were traitors then and are traitors now.

WII.UAM J. BHYAN has consented to address a national meeting of the Modern Woodmen of America, and will incidentally do a little sawing.

IT is advanced that a primal course of the newly noted '"ligh school face" iB chewing gum. That Indianapolis doctor should rfv his diagnosis.

MIL. MCKINLEY I as not lack advisors. They are in nimously mouthy in declaring thu: 'uething should bo done and are clamiiy silent in suggesting anything reasonable.

Tine town joker is reciting by conundrum that our navy is like a mule because it has no Maine. Jiy a similar process of reasoning we might prove that it is unlike a mule because it hab but one Foote.

THE Spanihh troops in Cuba lit for duty are said to number 70,000, and they are supplied by ships. In case of war their base of supplies will be cut offatouca and that is proverbially bad for a start.

HON. WILLIAM JENNINGS BJIYAN is unanimous in his opinion that Consul General Lee is the right m-on in the -right place and should be k?pt there at least until after the next Democratic National Convention.

WITH the prospect of a foreign war gold ie flowing into the country at the rate of a million a day. The alleged cowardliness of *old was a fiction, like the theory that the gold standard kept down the price of wheat.

GEN. FITZ HUGH LEE states in an interview that the conduct of the Washington administration in reference to the Cuban affairs has been most statesmanlike and above criticism. This should be in the nature of a quiet tip to some of the worshipers of the Lee family.

CoNGUicstMAN liiiOSVKNGii, referring to McKinley, says: "I do not fear that the honor and dignity of this country will Eulfer at his hands, but the men who are seeking, apparently, to rush into precipitate action ought to realize, that the whole world will bo affected by a Spanish war with us, and when it comes, if come it does, we should be able to look the world in the face and demand judgment that our cause is just."

REVENUE during March thus far has gone up to a higher average per day than it touched in February. The gain, that is to say, has been continuous. Each month since the Dingley act went into operation has Bfiown a higher average than its DrciU-cessor. Of course the war preparations will send expenditures far above receipts, no matter how fast the latter grow. The framers of tnis law did not have warm mind when they were at work on it. If war is averted the Dingley law will eventually meet ail the government's current demands. If war comes the party which framed this law will extend it so as to provide additional revenue.

THE quality of the gravel is all im portant. It should contain not more than one-third part of 6and or line material, and should contain no pebbles larger than a walnut. There should be a small quantity of cementing matter present. This can best be determined by examining the sides of the gravel pit after exposure to hai frosts of winter. If the walls remain steep.

without caving it may be taken as a satisfactory test that the gravel will compact well upon the road. It i6 a difficult matter to provide this cementing materially artificially, and if not present in the gravel, it would be wiBe to seek a better quality. Clay in limited quantities is some times used to aid in compacting the surface, but it absorbs water, and water is always deleterious, but especially so in a climate where hard frosts must be guarded against.

CRISIS NEAR AT HAND

Long Conferences Between Presi

dent and Party Leaders.

DEFINITE RESULTS SHORTLY

Ko Change In Plans llegarding Sending Maine lteport to Congress Words From Cicnernl Grant—Clara 15artun Leaven Havana Admiral hieard's Disability—Militia.

Washington, March 24.—The feeling is universal throughout- official circles that the culmination of the Spanish crisis is near at hand. With tlic report of the Maine court of inquiry only a little while off, with the white house tho ccnter of long and earnest conferences between the president and tho party leaders ot congress, and with exceptional activity toward emergency preparations in tho war and navy departments, there is abundance of evidence that definite results regarding tho Maiuo disaster and the Cuban question in general are about to be reached.

Among tho president's callers yesterday were Senators Uockrell, Turpie and Forakor, General Daniel Sickles, former United States minister to Madrid, and Representative William Allien Smith of Michigan, recently returned l'rom Cuba.

Secretary Long and Alger also con ferred with the President. Secretary Long later said that the Maine report probably would reach Washington tonight, if however, it did not, come before 8 o'clock, Mr. Long said he probably would not receive it until tomorrow when it would bo laid bei'ore the President immediately. Tho secretary did not think tho president would give tho document any consideration at a late hour. It was more probable, lie thought if Lieutenant Manx arrived a* a late hour that he would take the report to a hotel for tho u:ghc.

No Clism^o In

There has been no change in the plan of sending the report to congress early next week, probably Monday, accompanied by a message from the president. It is definitely settled, however, tnat the message and the papers accompanying it will relate exclusively to the Maine disaster. It will not take up the fearful condition of affairs in Cuba, as .shown insurgents by the reports of United States consuls, I Barcelona lor trial these being reserved for subsequent action and a. later message to congress,

Miss Clara Hartou Sail* For Now York. La LUCIHI'M Commtmt*. Havana, March 24.—Miss Clara Earton, president of the American branch of the Red Cross society, has lelt, lor New York on the Key West mail steamer. It was not known until yesterday that she intended to do so. Miss Barton says the cause of her departure is purely personal and lias to do with private linancial matters. Miss Barton expects to no to Washington and expressed the hope that she would soon be able to return to Cuoa.

La Luclia in an editorial under the caption of '•Expectation In the World" maintains that the American court of inquiry, owing to the short time it was hero, could not give a scientific report on the Maine disaster. "American naval officers," s.iys La Luclia, "are not likely to decide against brother officers. Tho divers could not give expert, testimonv, owing to the fact

pie toward Spain and Cuba." La Lucha also publishes an interview with Consul General Lee, which quotes him as saying that he knows nothing of the nature of the report, but is satislied that General Blanco never conceived the disaster until he heard the shock in the harbor.

\VOItl»S FIKHI CIIANT.

Kxtruct rom a Letter Written by the General In New York, March 21.—The remarkable disclosure is made by Leslies Weekly in this week's issue, that on April 30, 1S!)J, General U. S. Grant wrote to General Adam Badeau telling how easy it would be for tho United States to capture Havana by a combined attack by our land and naval forces. In this letter, which is printed in a facsimile by Leslies Weekly, General Grant says that "The hostility of the native population to Spanish authority would make this—the capture of Havana—a 'comparatively easy task for any first class power, and especially easy for the Uniteii in caso ot war with Spain."

Representative Mar*h Witnlx Thorn to Ilnve First Opportunity to EnlNl. Washington, March 24.—Representative Marsh, chairman of the house committee on militia, which has recently reported rue bill to reorganize that body of state soldiery, to raise its efiicieney and to appropriate §1,000,003 for its sap. port, called on Secretary Alger. During his interview with Secretary Algor Mr. I Marsh urged that in the event of hostilities tho first recourse of the government for soldiers bo tho state militia, who should be invited to volunteer for tho country's defense. These men, he pointed out. are well organized, well drilled ami ollicered, and are in a position to render very eiYective service. In view of these facts, Mr. Marsh believed that it was the duty of the government to call upon these citizen soldiers for duty in caso they cure to volunteer. If any members or officers of tho guard preferred nor, to enlist because of family or business cares and responsibilities, then their places might be taken by volunteers from outside the service. Secretary Alger seemed to regard tho suggestions as practicable.

Washington, March 2-1.—Representa-tive Clark of Missouri has introduced tho iollowntg resolution: "That tho congress ot tho United States of America participate with tho people of tho United States in lie deep interest which they feel lor he. success of the people of Cuba, who are struggling to establish their liberty and independence, and do hereby recognize the independenco of the republic ot Cuba."

Great Battleship Kentucky Christ

ened by Miss Bradley.

CEREMONY AT NEWPORT NEWS

Governor Itrailtey and His Staff, With About Four Hundred Enthusiastic Kcuttickiaiitt, Witness the Event.

Luncheon Given by the Hmld* era of This liig Warship.

Newport News, March 24.—Today is a proud one for Kentuckians. They are here about 400 strong, with their faces wreathed in smiles. Tho object of their visit was to witness the launching of the great battleship Kentucky. Governor Bradley, surrounded by his staff in brilliant uniforms, was next to the central figure at the launching and 'lie luncheon given to 500 by the ship's builders alter the ceremonies. The central figure was his daughter and only child. Miss Christine Bradley, a beautiful 18-year-okl girl, who came with her mother and friends from Washington, where she atteuds school, to christen the vessel.

The christening, which many officials thought should be done witn wine or Kentucky's famous product, was done with pure water, Miss Bradley declining to use anything else, and winning her light for it after a private, but hard fought battle with those wlio opposed her. Carrying out her sentiment in the

matter, she had tho water brought in a plain, wirocovered glass bottle from tho famous crystal spring on tho spot where Abraham Lincoln was born Larue county, Kv. Miss Bradley was an attractive figure on tho boat's bow, with the emblem of purity from its historic source in her uplifted hand, surrounded by her six pretty ICentuckv in aids of honor. She herself is a. striking bloado, and despite her youth has already attained unsought reputation in her native state as a liierateur of sroat promise, inheriting much of her lather's native brilliancy of mind and outer characteristics.

Kentuckians, proud of her, cheered her act, and the suite's p-iirtr.il assembly recently adopted resolutions commending her fur her stand behalf of pure water for tiio christening and a more deserved name lor ner state.

Her maids HI honor, all represent.irive Konttickv belles, were: .Misses AbbuBallard, Alice Oastleinou and Lillian Siege of Louisville, MissSalhe Bronston of Lexington, Miss Frances Collier of Lancaster and Miss Gatewood of Mount Sterling.

Lieutenant II. S. Whipple, Seventh regiment, Limed States cavalry, on detail duty in Kentucky, was master of ceremonies tor the Kentucky contingent.

All the Kentuckians came liere ou a special tram over the Chesapeake & Ohio railway, divided into sections and personally supervised by prominent officials ol tlie road. The tram or trains left Louisville Tuesday altertioon. Each section was loaded with the best good tilings Kentucky affords. The governor's official party was on the first section of the train, which, as did all sections, attracted attention along the route. The governor and his srail were the guests ot President Orcut and other officials of the Newport News Shipbuilding & DrydocK company. Fotes, entertainments, public, and private, will mark their further stay hero Only a small proportion ol tlie party will return on the excursion tram, as otlier excursions, including one up the Potomac to Washington and return, are ou the program tor their diversion.

Kays on Old Painting*.

A Munich amateur had a "Christ Crowned with Thorns," which was attributed to Albert Burer. The work was very beautiful, but its authenticity was doubted. It was proposed to phtograph it with the Roentgen rays, and the attempt was as successful as could have been desired. There were seen on the photograph very distinctly all the details that time, blackening the painting, had caused to disappear, and it was possible to read very distinctly the monogram of Durer surmounting the date 1421, as well as a two-line Latin inscription that had also become illegible.
