That five days’ armistice to the Cubans, so generously granted by Spain, is really aimed at the United States, and its main feature 1s ‘the withdrawal of the warships of the United States from the neighborhood of Cuba and the Philippine Islands, and the discontinuance of moral and and material support to the Cuban insurgents by the United States.” When it is remembered that by the ‘‘neighborhood” of Cuba is meant Key West the smoothness and nerve of the Spamish government is dis- cernible. Sraty’s act in proclaiming an ar- mistice of five days with the Cubans is not without its humorous features. Spain proclaims an armistice with the Cubans, but who will ask old Gomez it he will accept. General Ruiz once went to the Cubans with a proposi- tion other than that of independence, and he lost his life thereby. General Gomez has no use for an armistice, and will not rest even five days from his task of eliminating Spanish rule from Cubs. Srat is fighting oaly for time; hoping against hope that the impossi- ble will happen or that something will occur to enable her to retain Cuba, Having tried every expedient possible to get the European powers to interfere, she now makes the bluff of a five days’ armistice; but it will take something more substantial than that to cause Uncle Sam to tie up his war dogs.

The arrival in town of a party of socialists from the Ruskin Co-oper- ative Colony, Tannessee, for a series of meetings extending over a week, and beginning tonight at Broadway and Market, has created a stir among the Paducah sympathizers with Bel- lamy and Marx. The party is known as the Mission Wagon of the Co- operative Commonwealth. They are ng as well as propagandists of socialism, and promise an interesting meeting every night, With the Mormons, Seventh Day Adventists and other distinguished representatives of various sects and societies, Paducah can consider her- self dead in the push.

Lyon county has selected a dele- gation to the First district populist convention at Princeton, with the view of presenting the name of W. W. Helland for the congressional “fof the tools evokes would turn his Collection. What probably constitutes the handsomest and most original set of miner’s tools in the city, if not in the west, is in the possession of James Bray, who is an expert blacksmith, ag his work shows, and who made each Article of the collection himself, and were he anything but the modest man is the praise which every exhibition head to an inordinate and dangerous degree. The tools are seven in number and consist of three pole picks, of the kind used by experts to break off samples of rock, and four candlesticks. The eyes and straps of two of the picks are forged from one piece of steel, and the manner in which the wood of the handles is worked into the straps is quite a puzzle, Particularly is this the ease with one of the picks, which, has four straps, and shows the same number of apparent divisions in the handle, One mining man, after care- ully examining the tool, gave it a ris opinion that the wood was simply inlaid.

The selection of Mr, Trimble is not news, as it has been kuown from the beginning that he would be warden of the Frankfort penitentiary, But Mr. Smith has not been regarded as an important factor in the race for the other wardenship.

As much ingenuity ag is displayed n the manufacture of the picks, it is ompletely overshadowed by that manifested in the composition of the dlesticks. One of them is made so that it can be taken + and fits nto the end of the handle of one of the picks, Another has a regular pis- tol grip in place of the ordinary loop or Ting, and can be closed up some- thing after the manner of a clasp- knife. A cover working with a spring fits over the socket into which the andle is inserted, and is so arranged that as soon as the candle is consumed even with the top of the socket the cover flies forward and extinguishes the candle. In addition Mr, Bray has still an- other folding candlestick made to be carried in the pocket. It is so ar- ranged that either the hook or spike can be used, or both can be folded back and the stick carried in the hand. Still another stick, which is covered by a patent, has a knife at- tachment connected with the hook for cutting fuse and ripping open thi paper that ers giant powder, in case it is found necessary to crowd it into a small hole, and also an ap- pliance for crimping the cap.
