The entertainment given last night by the Y. P. S. C, E. of the Presbyterian church was a success, both financially and otherwise. The pictures were all well represented and those who took part acquitted themselves very creditably. Besides the regular program Will Hough rendered a recitation and George Bradford, the violinist, gave a nice selection.

C. Lewis, one of the cleverest of comedians, assisted by a company of merit, presented the amusing Yankee drama,
l,Si
Plunkard." to a tine audience
in Sliiiwhaii's Opera House last evening, and never was an audience more pleased. Mr. Lewis has surrounded himself with a good company. Sam C. Young, as th3 German comedian, is a whole team, and he was recalled after nearly every appe. r« auce. Mrs. Jeanette Lewis, Miss Rice aud YV. C. West all found favor with the audience and were responsible for considerable merriment. As to the comedy itself, ther's just plot, enough in it to bring out the quaint drolleries of the Yankee peddler and his coterie of friends, likewise his enemies. "Si Plunkard" scored a point and will bs greeted by hosts of friends should he return to Tiiliu. —Tiflin. O., Daily Advertiser, Nov. 8, 181)4.

CUBA.
Cuban secession from Spain seems tcrbe a certain thing in tho near future, and there is much reason to think secession may succeed.—New York Advertiser.
Cuba stands with arms akimbo and looks at Spain very much with tho same sort of expression that Ireland wears to England when homo rule is mentioned.— BoBton Transcript.
It is an anomaly which cannot continue forever that brisk and energetic Cuba should bo tethered to modiiuval and somnolent Spain. Cuba will bo suro to broak this transatlantic apron string some day. •—Boston Globe.
With tho Spanish floet controlling the sea it is idlo to suppose that insurrection can ever bo successful. The large Spanish population furnishes a local garrison, the negroes are loyal to Spain, while tho native born Cubans are in a minority of the total population.—Philadelphia Press.

Arbitrary Measures Will Not J5e Itesorted
to I-'or the Present—An Explanation Ex
pected From the Different Countries In
volved in the Present Complications.
No Answer I'l-om Spain.
•WASHINGTON, March 23.—The cabinet meeting yesterday lasted but two hours, everybody being present but Secretary Carlisle, who is in New York. The session is said to have been uneventful, thereby disappointing the expectations ui't hose wh looked lor some decided aggressive action in foreign affairs. It is also said that there was an entire iubdouce of friction between tho
luem-
t»er, although the principal subjects under discussion, relating to the various complications into which we have become involved with certain foreign countries, were well calculated to exhibit divergence of individual views.
It is presumed that the attitude of Great Britain toward Venezuela and Nicaragua was canvassed, but as far as can be gathered the secretary of state had no new matter touching this to impart, and it was not believed to be necessary to take any positive action in the absence of an explicit statement of the purposes of Great Britain.
As far as the Nicaraguan matter is concerned, it is not believed that our government is disposed to take issue with Great Britain as to her right to demand an indemnity for the unjust treatment of her consular agent and citizens, inasmuch as the United States lias already and repeatedly gone on record as insisting on its own right in such eases to secure reparation for improper, treatment of its citizens.
The only point upon wliic.li there can be a question is as to the method of collecting the indemnity, but there is reason to believe that in the view of the cabinet, the subject need cause no real trouble, as Nicaragua doubtless will agree to meet reasonable demands from Great Britain when it is made clear to lier bv our department of state tfiat she can not do otherwise than rely upon the moral support of the United States, which might otherwise be disposed to use its good offices to secure an abatement of the amount of indemnity if the principle of an indemnity is conceded.
The situation as to Venezuela is believed to be giving the cabinet more concern by far, but as a treaty stated, it is the disposition to take no arbitrary action in the absence of a statement from Great Britain.
In view of the more weightier matters now engaging the attention of tho administration, it is stated that foreign ministers in Washington are likely to bo at least for the present, left undisturbed in their relations with our government. No answer beyond a purely perfunctory one, acknowledging the receipt of our communication and promising to make investigation, has been returned to Spain to our demand in the Allianca affair, and while under ordinary conditions, this might be resented by our government, a disposition was shown by the cabinet to make all due allowance for the tact that as a result of the overturning of the Spanish cabi
the subordinates there dare not do 'anything to compromise the incoming cabinet. .? PEACEFULLY
The Trouble Between Guatemala ami Mexico Will Probably Be Settled.
WASHINGTON, March 213.—Advices are said to have been received at the Guatemalan legation, the eii'ect of which has a tendency to place a more hopeful showing upon the relations between that republic and the government of Mexico.
Tho tenor of the reported information is to the effect that the disputed boundary limits have been a subject of recent very friendly consideration by proper authorities, l'epresentiug both governments, and that a temporary arrangement has been entered upon which bids fair to result in an absolutely peaceful solution of the prevailing contentions between the two republics.
Minister Drops Dead.
ROANOKE, Va., March 23.—Rev.' Dr. I Brown Yonce, professor of ancient languages at Roanoke college, dropped dead from apoplexy about 8 o'clock yesterday evening at the Lutheran church in Salem just before the commencement of services. He was in his usual health, apparently, till a few minutes before his death. He was 68 years old, and a naI tive of southwest Virginia. He had beon a professor at Roanoke college sinc8 1855. He was a widower and leaves three grown sons.
Oldest Democrat In New York Dead.
LYONS, N. Y., March 23.—John A. Pickett, who claimed to be the oldest Democrat in western New York, died here yesterday evening. He was born iii Herlimer, March 14, 180-1, and ca9t his first presidential vote for Andrew Jackson. He never missed voting at presidential, state, eounty or local electiona.

Strikers Become ltiotou*.

HOW TO CLEAN LENSES.
Photographers aud Telescope Owners Cau Do It Themselves Without Danger. Mere dust can be removed with a camel's hairbrush, there being nowhere found any opinions forbidding that. But in the changes of an ordinary climato a lens will get considerably blurred with filmy accumulations, even though it may never have been touched by the hand or brought in contact with grease in any form. A practical photographer oneo said that if a finger mark should como upon a lens which he valued very highly he would immediately return it to it3 European manufacturers. Ho would not dare to touch it himself.
Any ono may venture upon taking an objective apart and cleaning it, provided he will only do it carefully.
In tho first place "do not uso either fine chamois skin, tissue paper or an old silk handkerchief, or any other such material as is usually advised." Uso cheesecloth. It is not tho wiping manorial, though, that is apt to do tho mischief, but the fine dust particles, which may be silicious and bcconio attached to the glass. This is tho way to begin on the objective:
Take a wooden bowl, cleaned with soap and water, then half fill it with clean water ot' about the same temperature as the glass and put in a teaspoonful of ammonia in half a pail of water. First wash a pieco of cheesecloth thoroughly with soap and water and rinso and clean. Then placo it in tho bowl or pail, so that tho lens won't slip. Never uso the same piece of cheesecloth twice.
Mr. Brashear says that when the lens has been dusted and placed in tho water ho prefers to rub it with tho palms of his cleaned hands, although cheesecloth is good. There seems to bo absolutely no danger of scratching it when plenty of water is used. When thoroughly washed, take tho glass out, lay it on a bundle of cheesecloth, and use several pieces of tho same, which have boon previously washed clean and dried, and dry it. Don't let it drain dry. Take up all the moisture with the cloth. Vigorous rubbing will do no harm if the surfaces have no abrading material.
An objectivo can be cleaned without taking it out of its cell. First dust off the particles, then uso tho cheesecloth with soap and water. Go over tho surfaco gently with ono pieco of cloth and throw it away and take another, then a third one. When tho glass is clean, tako a pieco of dry cloth and dry it.
Of course photographic lenses can bo cleaned in tho samo way.
How to 3Iako Sliosi Dressing: at Homo. A soft dressithat i: less injurious than tho majority of polishes found in tho market i: niado by mixing to a smooth paste vaseline c„r cosmolino and lampblack. Apply a very little with a flannel cloth and rub in thoroughly. Tho oil fills up 1 ho pores and renders the leather almost waterproof after using it several times. This dressing docs not impart a high gloss to tho leather, but merely softens and colors it. Where a polish is desired tho liquid dressings aro preferable.
How to Stuff Lobster Tails. Cut in three-sixteenths of an inch squares a pound of lobster meat cooked in court bouillon. To prepare tho court bouillon minco up
2
SSsilSSSSSfis
ounces of onions, 2
ounces of celery root, 2 ounces of carrots and put them into a saucepan with a branch of parsley, thyme and bay leaf also a pint of water, some salt and a pint of whito wine. Let boil for ten minutos. Add to theso half tho same quantity of cooked mushrooms, cut up the same sizo. Fry colorless in butter 2 tablespoonfuls of onions. Add 2 ounces of flour and fry without browning. Dilute with a pint of milk and cook again for a fow minutes. Then add tho lobster, mushrooms. Mix well. Boil up once, remove and cool off. Fill tho half tail shells, well cloanod and dried, with this preparation. Dredge over broad crumbs, besprinklo with butter and brown them in a hot oven.
How to Uso Lemons on the Hair.
A lemon cut in half, or, better still, in quarters, so that the pulp can easily be applied to the roots of tho hair, will stop any ordinary case of falling out. It is an agreeable remedy. Besides being cool and pleasant to tho skin, the scent, unlike that left by tho petroleum cure, is distinctly refreshing, and it also has the merit of cheapness.
How to Make Oatmeal Bags.
Take 5 pounds of oatmeal, ground fine, a half pound of castile soap, reduced to powder, and a pound of powdered Italian orris root. Cut a yard of thin cheesecloth into bags about four inches square, sewing them on tho machine and taking care not to leave any untied threads where a broak may let the contents oozo out. Mix the soap, oatmeal and orris root thoroughly and fill the bags loosely. Sew up the opening in each and lay them away to be used as required. They are used as a spoDge dipped in warm water, making a thick velvet lather and wonderfully softening the skin while tho orris imparts a lasting fragranoe.
How to Cure Mosquito Bltos.
'Apply spirits of hartshorn diluted with twice as much water of sal volatile or oologne. If the part is left puffy and swelled after the tingling has abated, rub it with soap liniment A piece of raw onion is also most effioaoions for bites and stings. The following is a cure and a deterrent: A paste made of the plant Pyrethrttm rosoenm, mixed with spirits^ diluted with twice as much water as spirita This applied will cure the bite and prevent othors, as tho odor will koop away the mosquito.
How to Keep Lace V«ila Smooth.
The best way to keep lace vei Is smooth and in good order is to roll them up when they aro taken off, keeping the edges flat and well stretched apart during tho process. This method will make a veil last longer and koep it looking fresher than any veil case, however dainty in design.
