Gen Roloff in Hoc.
New York Jan. 14. General Carlos
Roloff secretary of war of the Cuban
republic was arrested last night ou
warrant sworn out by the Spanish
consul in which the general is charged
with violation of the neutrality laws in
connection with an alleged filibuster
ing expedition to Cuba.
Gen. Roloff was locked up over night
and brought before Commissioner
Shields this morning. The general's
friends are indignant at the arrest
being so aimed as to render all efforts
to prevent incarceration futile. Gen
eral Roloff is already under indictment
for alleged participation in a filibus
tering expedition. Warrants are out
for several other persons.
Gen. Roloff was worn and haggard
when he came before Commissioner
Shields this morning. Arraigned with
him upon a similar charge was Dr.
Joseph 1 1. Luis. Each pleaded not
guilty. They were held for examination
Saturday $2500 bail was furnished.

Fitzgerald (Mass.) secured the pas
sage of a resolution calling for an es-
timate of cost of putting the frigate
Constitution into condition to make a
journey Irom .fortsmoutn jn . . to
Washington to be used as a naval
museum.
A bill increasing to $50 the pension
of Martha Curtis Carter widow of
Rear Admiral Carter went through
without objection but later on Loud
(Calif.) stated that if his attention had
not been distracted at the time the bill
was read he would have objected as he
had consistently done with regard to all
increase of pensions He trusted in the
future that gentlemen would not dis
tract him at such times.

the purpose of invoking that oniciars

Out of consideration for his business

PASTOR RESIGNED.
Rev.
L. R. Millican of f he First Baptist
Church Resigns.
The Baptist revival was brought to a
sudden termination last night when it
was announced that Rev. Tardy would
have to leave for the east today to
atteod to his pastoral duties at Pales-
tine Texas. Then there was another
surprise party sprung on the audience
when the regular pastor Mr. Miiiican
rose to tender his resignation. He had
tendered it a year ago but it was not
accepted and he withdrew the resigna
tion as he was assured that members
who bad "walked disorderly" would
thereafter cease to do so. This promise
however had not been kept and he
now insisted that the resignation be
accepted and when subsequently urged
to withdraw his resignation be firmly
declined and said the resignation
would take effect April 1 or earlier if
another pastor could be secured.
Io a Herald reporter who asked
Mr. Millican about the facts connected
with bis resignation the latter replied
that all he had to say was that circum-
stances were so that he could not stay
and was going into mission work. This
latter matter was not perfected as yet
but he would look after Baptist inter
ests in western Texas New Mexico and
Arizona. However the Herald is
informed that- the occasion of
the pastor's determination to no longer
be the pastor of the First Baptist
church is the fact that the young
folks the younger - members of the
chureh particularly persist in dancing
and card playing and in theatre going
contrary to the professions made and
covenants taken on uniting with the
church. In fact it is an open secret
that the great cause for the collapse
and failure of the revival conducted in
the Baptist church two years ago by
Rev. Sid Williams was that the young
converts went to back sliding in the
matter of card playing dancing and
theatre going.
Mr. Millican has battled against tfcis
heroically but the edds were against
him and he now withdraws from this
particular conflict and the church that
did not sustain him. The advice that
prevailed seems to have been '"the
oung folks must have their fun."
Well they have had their fun and now
they loose their pastor and their
buret loses its spirituality in conse
quence.
Mr. Millican came to this city tnree
ears ago from Midland where he had
been pastor for seven years and a more
spiritual pure minded simple hearted
pright. conscientious man never came
into this community. It is gratifying
to know that be will make his head-
quarters in El Paso.
The Yale Catalogne.
A copy of the Yale University cata-'
logue for 189(5-'97 has been received
n this city and shows a marked ad
vancement for the university over 1S95
'! notwithstanding the bard times.
The catalogue is 458 pages as against
2o for the previous year. Ihe facul-
v and instructors numoer z-io an ln-
rease of thirteen. The total number
of students is 2615 as against 2415 for
the previous scholastic year 1790
being under graduates; and the 6ize of
the Freshman class is 525 against 478
for the last year. There is a substan
tial increase in the Post graduate
epartment of 51 the present number
being 227. There is a gain of seven in
the art department and twenty-three in
the department of music. There is a
loss in the Divinity school the present
umber being 104; the Medical school
with its now lengthened course to four
years has lost 11.
Kntrance examinations will be held
this spring in 32 cities in the United
States and in Paris France. The
course of electives number about 400
and a course of special instruction has
