It bocn suspected for several months that a Cuban filibustering party was at work in this city. It is learned that thej have headquarters at 717 Market street here, and that at least one, if not more, expeditions to Cuba have been dispatehi from this city.

On Monday the United States authorities huro were notified by Detective Gaylord of tlm Pinkerron agency in Philadelphia that another rxprilition was about to take departure. Detective Gaylord anc several of came the ne.t! day. United Deputy Marshal Hewsen E. Lanuen and Kcvcrul assistants, together with the jiolice authorities, have been keeping a close wotch over since. The Authorities Were Ported.

They noticed a number of suspicions characters loitering about the cigar store in the neighborhood of the headquarters of the Junta and discovered that one oi these had gone to the office of the Charles Warner company and chartered the tug Taurus to carry freight to Penns Grove. They shadowed the tug until she left her wharf in this city at midnight Thursday night. It was known beforehand by the authorities that the alleged filibustering party was to wait at Penus Grove fora steamer to come from Philadelphia to take them to Cuba. Tlio name steamer is not known, but it was learned that she was not expected to arrive at Penns Grova until midnight last night. The pursuing party, therefore, permitted the men that were watching to load their freight and embark their passengers without molestation and saw them sail in the direction of Penns Grove, whither Borne of the detectives hod been sent to await developments.

At 5 o'clock Friday afternoon Marshal Lanncu, with several assistants, Detective Gaylord and two of his associates and a squad of police under Captain Kalne, boaYdcd the tuff Mctka and sailed to Fenns Grove.

None of the prisoners has neon permitted to make any fttatpim-nt, and it is not thought that they will be until they arc arraigned in the court. An expedition very similar to the one which came to grief Friday put to sea in the tug Bertha about three weeks ago, and it is understood that its members were safely landed in Cuba.

The First rrert of tbe Kind. This is the (Irs. arrest of tbe kind made in the United States since the Cuban insurrection began, and it is mode upon the orler, it is said, of Secretary Carlisle. The men arrested are all natives of Cuba. They are from various parte of the country, but the majority are from New York, and two of them claim to be American citizens.

When the Meteor reached the mouth of Christiana creek, the Taurus was seen at the pier Penns Grove. Alxmt the same suspected filibusters sighted the boat, and with a glass they could bo SUPH leaving the Taurus and hurrying to the Peiins Grove picnic grounds, each em? carrying a bundle or a valise. The oflicers landed, and then the Cubans broke Seven were caught in the 'grove and arrested. Thirteen ran toward tile station. They were overtaken, and the officers, with drawn revolvers, made prisoners of them all.

Captain Kane made them throw up their hiiiuls. The Cubans obeyed and wore twai-ched. In their pockets found various weapons, mostly revolvers.of the finest make. After theejipture the men were marched to the Meteor, put ulioard and brought to this city. Tin' Taurus, with the L'U cases of arms, also brought here.

Though the Hyams murder trial will not commence till Nov. 6, the crown officers have already begun to shape out their plan of campaign. The authorities claim to be thoroughly convinced of the guilt of the accused men, and no effort will bo spared to convict them. Another effort will be made by the crown to put in evidence relating to the alleged attempt to insure Mrs. Harry Hyams' life.

The attorney general's department has been hard at work raking up authorities to prove the adminibilit; of such evidence. Whether it goes in or not, however, the crown will oppose the exclusion of the jury during argument on tbe point. Thus they will bring the mat ter in directly before the jury. The same tactics will be pursued with regard to the evidence of Hyums' past ca reer, to testify concerning which Detect ive Heidelberg wHl be again brought from New York. The crown has, moreover, hod detectives at work inquiring into the religious beliefs of the defense's witnesses.

They have found, it is stated, that two of them belong to the Secular society, and this fact will be brought out in order to impress the jury with the fact that a man who is not of the orthodox creed is not reliable.

I A Myerstown citizen is obliged to earn I his arm in a sling for peculiar reasons As he sits and nurses his broken arm am muses upon the infidelity of some wo- I men he might be led to say: "For way I that are dark and tricks that are vain a least one woman that I know is ver It is not necessary to ptiblisl names in this ami yet the facts cai be given as a warning to women who are inclimil to lie untrue to their ami to inpii well, who should be careful as to how they use their fists. The voting man in question had been mistrusting his wife for some time and si one evening be got off the old story to which men resort under such circtitu stances, be told his wife that he was going away from town and would not bt home until late.

The married man waited long enough to get up his anger to the lighting pitch and then he started away to storm his domiciliary. He entered the house, over which at one time the angel of love and peace contentedly brooded, in a furious roge. He was now convinced that his suspicions were only too well founded and he determined then and there to make an end of this thing or die in tbe attempt.

He did not need to hunt very long until he found his wife and another young man, the very one he had seen enter the house, as happy together as two turtle doves. lie seized the latter by tbe cull'of tbe neck and with a stout stick gave him a complete drubbing. So far so for the married man the young fellow, however, did not enjoy the performance a particle. But now the married man made a serious mistake. Thinking that he had used the club long enough upon the trespasser of his home lie threw it to a side and continued the pounding with his fists.

This is the part of the proceedings which causes him to carry his arm in a sling and to walk about in such a grim, sullen humor, for be continued to rain blow after blow upon the young fellow until tie had knocked bis wrist out of joint! The question many of the people are now dif-viismig is which received tbe worst of the bargain.
