Judge Klrkpatrick, of K.aston, the Re publican nominee for Congress of the Kighth District made a host of new friends during his sojourn among us last Friday. How could it be otherwise in the face of such sound argument coming from such an honorable as well as amiable gentle man.

J. ue of a Name. t matter to teach a of her signature. If jftiit is once formed of attach ing her full name to every letter she writes, with her address, it may save a great deal of trouble in future times, should her letters be lost by mail. She should be taught the re sonsibility which she assumes in thus signing her name, and she is not likoly then to write silly and foolish letters which she would glad ly recall. She should also learn that she must not affix her name to any list of individuals, any socioty or any document without knowing fully what responsibility she is as suming. The matter may seem trivial, but she should give time t o thought in all matters where her name is asked for, and not trust even to her dearest friend against her own judgment. Times have changed indeed sinoe the days when a young girl's fondest aspiration up on quitting school was to change her name. Her whole social edu cation tended to instruct her that her life would be a failure until she got rid of her father's name. Now she prizes it. She often keeps it in hor married name to show the race she sprung from. She is not in a great hurry to change it. Ex. MrKlnley on "Protection and Prosperity.'

Si. The Tlmes l.Vmocrat's Key West special says: If the Ppnnish autnoritlns had taken 0'ior Anpci Fernandez off the Ward line fti nmer Vlgilancia while that vessel was In the Havana harbor last Friday, United H.ite warships would have immediately !iton ordered to Havana to enfnroe a de mand for reparation, and war between this country and Spain would have undoubted ly resulted. For three hours last Friday the United States and Spain were on the brink of war, nd the threatening sana tion wns only relieved when the Spanish authorities Ignnmlnlously backed down and allowed the Vlgilancia to proceed to sea with Fernandez still on hoard. A let ter rocolved here from si correspondent in Havana, who Is close to Consul General Leo, gives a drnmatio aeooiint of the epi sode. According to the letter, when the Vlgilancia put Into Havana, the Spanish authorities demanded the snrrronder of Senor Angnl Fernandez, a Mexican, on board the vessel. The Spaniards alleged thnt Fernandez wns not a Mexloan, but a subject of Spain. Captain John Molntosh of the Vlgllnncln refused to surrender Fernandez. Then the Spanish authorities told Mcintosh that If the Vlgilancia at tempted to go to sea with Fernandez on board she would be sunk by the guns of Morro onstle. Captain Molntosh Immediately laid the matter before Consul General Lee, who complimented the captain en his bravery and told hlin to take the Vlgilancia to sea vv C'ONr.l-l.

Slowly the Ylgilanria entered tho month nf the hnrbor, and then It wns noticed thnt the guns of Morro castle viro turned on the ship. The Yigilanoia repeatedly signaled Morro castle, "I am cning to sc:. ' hut no answer came from the I oit until the vessel was in blue water, and then the Spunlan! ran up the signal which means -iondhy. " It Is faid that Wcyler is furious over the departure of the vessel and Consul Lee's course. It is stated that Weyler or dered the commamlor of Morro castle to ilv.'.i tho Vlgilancia, luit nt the last mo ment ho yielded to the entreaties of his ruMnrti and countermanded the order.
