Kxcltcmcnt CiiummI by Itcport Thnt
Spanish U'niclnl Lowered Fliifr.
New York, February 4'A cable
to the Tribune from Havana says:
A dispatch from Madrid published
in 151 Mutido this morning, saying
that the Cuban Minister was request
ed bv the Minister of Foreign Af
fairs of Spain to take down the
Cuban flag because of the ordinance
against foreign flags flying over
private houses, has caused great
indignation here.
Representative Castillo introduced
in the House this afternoon n res
olution asking President Palma to
cable immediately to Senor Mcr
clian, the Cuban Minister, for parti
culars of the incident, and to place
nil the circumstances before Con
gress. The resolution was passed,
unanimously.
Much bitterness was displayed.
It is argued that as Senor Mcrchan
had presented his credentials, his
home was the Cuban Legation ami
was not subject to the law regard
ing foreign flags. If it develops
that the Minister was compelled to
lower the flag if is certain the
House will vote to recall the Cuban
Legation from Madrid, thus causing
a breach in the diplomatic relations
between the two countries. There
is fear, too, that some anti-Spanish
Cubans here might tear down Span
ish flags.
Snnkn Poisons.
The rapidity with which snake
poison acts in producing fatal re
sults is, of course, familiar to every
one, states the London Chronicle;
hence the investigations which have
had for their object the discovery
of an antidote to the virus have at
tracted a large amount of attention.
Prominent among those who have
experimented are Dr. Calmette of
Lilly and Professor Fraser of Edin
burgh. The mode of research is
tliat of rendering an animal im
mune to snake poison by its inocu
lation with small doses of the virus,
the quantity being gradually in
creased till the animal survives an
amount of poison sufficient, it may
be, to kill half a dozen of its kind.
A principle known as "antivenin"
is developed in the animal's blood,
and it is this substance which can
be used as an antidote to ward off
fatal effects when man has been
bitten. Weir Mitchell long ago
demonstrated that each species or
group of snakes elaborates its own
special virus; hence it appears
likely that for each bite we may
demand a separate remedy. A
modified opinion holds that while
antivenin obtained from one snake
holds good for that snake's bite
alone, it may also exercise an effect
of modified character in the case of
injury from another and different
reptile. In connection with this
topic it may be of interest to note
that the immunity of the mongoose
to the effects of snake bite is really
due to that little animal having
naturally developed in its blood an
antidotal principle, ' presumably
allied to antivenin.
Hoiitlue; Stuffed Animals.
The trade in stuffed animals is
getting brisker. "I don't mean by
that," said a William-street taxider
mist, "that we are selling more of
them. We are not. We never do
sell stuffed beasts in herds at this
time of the years, but our renting
Hist swells prodigiously. People
1 whose business requires thetii to )
use stuffed animals and birds as an
'
I advertisement generally want an
I extra cluck or dog or bear added to;
their stock for a month or two pre-j
c-edi)g aml following Christmas.1)
A tratie nurk of Ulls k5lul of g00ll J
(quality, costs anywhere from $5 to
?75i mid sis those that are used
'merely as 'supers' are needed only
a lew moutus in the year, it isl
1 cheaper to rent them than to buy
them outright. Almost every mcrV
chant in town of high or low degree
makes an extra splurge at the
Christmas season by exhibiting a 1
polar bear or sonic other festive
animal, consequently our rental
1 amounts ton rather nice income.
USome seasons we do a pretty thriv

1 realistic to rely upon stuffed art for
its eltects, and our orders lor pro

finorinoiiH Sums for Reclaiming Arid
Lands.
Washington, February 4. The
Secretary of the Interior is expect
ed to make a decision as to the be
ginning to be made in the new
Federal-aided irrigation project
Newell of the Geological Survey,
wlio has the irrigation work in
charge, has forwarded to 'the Sec
retary all the data necessary for
the selection of sites, and the! report
is now in the government printing
office.
It has been, decided that there
shall be three projects inaugurated
simultaneously. The chances arc
greatly improved for one to be locat
ed in Southern California. A dozen
sites have been withdrawn from
entry in as many states and the re
port deals with the availability of
them all.
The sum for this irrigation work
has been growing at an unexpected
rale. - There are now in the vicinity
of ten million dollars available, says
Newell, to begin work. This is
ample for all needs.
Toner or-the Press.
She had refused him.
Coldly, cruelly turned him down.
And he had been so hopeful !
lie was the editor of a newspaper
and hope had been a necessity in
his business.
That and $2 per year, in advance
or words to that effect.
"I know," he fairly hissed at her
when he realized she was not to be
his'u, "I know why you have re
jected my suit. You think your
self so beautiful that you can barter
your personal pulchritude for a
title."
The haughty beauty smiled un
relentingly.
"And why not ?" she responded
lightly to his accusation. "Am I
not beautiful? True, the word
does not know of it yet, for I have
shone only in the narrow sphere in
which you move; but the time
will come whcii all the beau monde
shall acknowledge it and be at my
feet."
He pawed the rich Oriental rugs
like a restive horse.
"You think thus to set my love
aside, do you? " he said, with sup
pressed fury in his tone. "You
think, proud beauty, that you have
me in your power. Aha ! You
little know who , you are dealing
with." 1
Notwithstanding he was an edi
tor, his feelings were so intense
that he neglected grammatical rules
in his language.
This time she smiled in scorn.
1 "Oh, you threaten, do you?"
she inquired, with infinite irony.
"Know, sir, that I fear you not.
Do your worst ! "
. He strode toward the half-open
door and stopped on the threshold.
"You have pronounced your own
doom," he said, turning to her.
"You think when the world has
seen your face it will worship your
beauty and crown you Queen. I
shall print your picture 111 our so
ciety columns tomorrow, and I
shall do my worst, as you have
asked. Aha !"
It was a supreme moment.
The editor gaed fixedly upon
the fickle fair one and the color
fled from her cheeks for hers was
j 'io drug store complexion.
She returned his gaze, for she
blind no occasion to use it then; with
a low moan of horror, the proud
beauty came down off her perch
and acknowledged that the power
of the press was illimitable. W. J.
