The actual transfer occurred In au Impiislng room, oblong, wllh a lofty celling and marble floor. It Is lo-day exactly as It was when the Spaniards departed, extt'pt that the portraits of Falraat-eda, lhe Weyler of the Ten Years' War, nud those of the other Captalns-fieneral, which hung upou ila walls, nre gone. They were taken back   lo   Spain.

Cubans had died away, Oonprnl Wood and the United States cavalrymen re¬ maining iu Havana embarked for the United States, the former on the cruiser Urooklyn, nnd thc latter on tha,ste8mer .Morro Castle. ¦"^The natal day of the Republic of Culm found Havana lu brilliant array. The decorations tvere universal. Many Imposing arches wero erected nt tho euirauces of plazas. Iluutiug. spread DU Venetian masts, canopied the nar¬ row streets frnm the rays of thc sun.
The tIecorulioDM alung the waler- frout were exceedingly lavish, aud all the shipping lu the hnrbor was dressed ill gala altiro, Tbe majority of the ships llew thc Americau ensign lit the main and the Cuban colors at thc fore or inizzcu. The United Stales armored cruiser Hrooklyu, nnd the sicaiuer Mor¬ ro Castle, of the Ward Line, as well as ihe foreign warships tvhich had becu stilt by the liovernments to be present nt the birth of the netv Republic, were dressed tvllh signal flags furo aud afl.
The enrly morning was cool and ile- lighlful. aud the eulire populallon, re¬ inforced by thousands of visitors, tvns abroad soon after daylight. All tvns nulmation aud ex|H-ctancy. There are KHXl public carriages In Ilavanu, uud each ouo ot I hem seemed racing some- tvhere on a life or ileuth mission.
Much curiosity was aroused by n Stalue of Freedom, tvhich had Ih'cu raised during the nigbt lu Ccutiiil I'ark, upou tho pedestal where, for ccii- inries, a statue of yuecu Isnlu-lla liii.I stood.
Uuriug thc early iiorulug many troops of school children uiarcheil into lhe I'lazn di- .\niias, ranged theuisi'lvcs lii'f.ire the p,'ilace aud saug au .\mer- Ic'iii ,iiilhi'iu.

In the uiennlime a Cuban flng hnd hceu bent on the halllai'da of the p.-il- aie flagstnff, nnd tvlth his otvn hand Ceueinl Wood rnised It, Ceueral (iomi;z assisting him.
As the llag flew free tremendous cheering nrosc from the Htritels Im'Iow. It was cnught up by tho people on lhe roofs aud rolled over the clly. Again the cavnlry snluled, nnd ngain the guns of Cabanas spoke, this time tvllh a National salute of twenty-one guns.

About 145,000 Workers Obey Order Making Strike Permanent.

Hazleton, Pa.—Tho coal sirike lu the nuthrnelte field has boon made perma- nent by the miuers' couvontiuii hero by a voto of 401 to 340. .\boul 14,1,000 mine employes are dlreclly Involved.
Tho docision bns crcalod constorun' lion throughout thc eulire nnlhrnclle reglou, as many Industries, Including the light plants, have bul small sup¬ plies of coal on haud, nnd tvlll bo forced lo susiH-nd If Ihe mines shut down for ovon a comparallvcly short time. It win be seen from Ihis that the 145.000 men thrown oul by tho strike order are nol the cnly oues tvho tvill Ih! forced Into idloDcss.
Before the conveution flually ad¬ journed stops wore taken to involve lu the strike all thc hitumlnous nud an- Ihiacllc coal miuers of the Uuited States. According to the rulea of the uulou, it lotiulroa Hve dlsti'ltrt* to cnll a national convention. The officials ho|H' tu be able to gel tho consent of Iwo bituminous districts for the Issuantv of a call for a special natioual couveu- lion, at tvhich the question of Involv¬ ing all the bltumluous lUlnois In Iho Uuiled Slates In the present strugglo tvlll be discussed, 'i'lio officials hope that If this special convenlion Is called, tvhich Is uot unlikely, they tvlll be able to bring oul the uon-unlon bltumluous minors In Virginia, Wesl Virginia and central Pennsylvania. If the plau sue ceeds, about 4."iO,000 mine tvorkcrs tvill be out on strike.
Reiiorts from all ovor the anthracite regions show thnt every ouo of the 147,000 minors tvho wenl out ou teiu- porary strike are abiding by llie de cision of the ccnveullou to contluue the strike.
Business men throughout the anihia- dte region aro depressed, Mnny have declnred Ihey will give no credit Uj ininers duriug tho strike, tloitpU*—tTic fact that this policy often meaus seri¬ ous loss of custom In times of prosper¬ ity. The advantages that summer brings to tbe poor In tho country will prevenl possible suffering In Ihe cnse of a long suspension.
Tho minors' wives nrc ns determined ns Iheir husbnuds. Thoy say Ihey are going to try to keep their famllios fiom starving by 'nklng lu tvnshing aud going out to scrub. They believe the minors will tvin.
Tho conl companies continue to make preparntlous for a long strike. Tiie conl and Iron police, t^'ho are sworn in by the Stale of Penusylvunla, hut who aro paid by the coal companies, nre uow more active nnd nlort, bul Ihelr services are hardly noedod nt Illls llmo, because the strikers aro liooping atvay from the collerles. The l.oiiigh Valley Coal Compan.v has ic- luovod the mules from Its mines In this viclnlly. Slid placed them lu pnsturo. The electric railtvay compauy has le- .Inced its service oue-half, nud laid off a number of Its omplo.vos. Because of tho stagnnllon of business, trnfflc is becoming vory light, Mnny Industrial estnlillshmeuts ure oxpcriouclug diill¬ cnlty lu getting coal, aud nre economiz¬ ing lu lhis respect.

"Proaelj-tea," (Entiles Who had cmbraeed the Jewiah religion. "Followed," Walked wilh them as thoy were leaving ths syna- gosue. "Persuaded." Urged, entreated. "'To continue." etc. A gootl impression hsd been made, they were earnest aeeken after trulh, snd it wsa important that they should continue to belieire and obey it snd be saved by it.
44. "The next Sabbath." The eraagal- ista attended the aynagogue on the "sab¬ balh dsy" because that tvas the day^aa which the Jews trorshiped. The day ntnl nnd Barnabas obserred as the sabbath waa tho day on Vhich Chriat rose trom the dead, railed the Lord's dsy. This day haa been observed by thc chureh ss the Chria¬ tian sabbalh ever since the resurreetioa morning. "Almott the whole city." Tba interest mutt hsve been intense. The pea. pie tvere stirred, excited, curious.
