Enrique LOy'lez cs. Manuel .Q,tesada.-About the
beginning Of the war for Cuban independence the
plaintiff Enrique Loynez, patriot desiring the
freedom Of the "Ever Faithful Isle," gave General
Manuel Quesada $1,000 towards the revolutionary
fund. Both parties were In Nassau at the time.
After the lapse OF time, however, Loynez regretted
his iberality, and with view to the recovery Of his
money instituted suit therefor against Quesada.
The General put In denial, but his real defence Is
that he received the ST. 500 as agent Of the republic
of Cuba and that no suit against him personally can
be instituted. This suit is now pending. A motion
was yesterday made before Judge McCunn to compel
defendant, rs a nonresident, to give security Tor

How to Split Wood Easily.

Numbers OF Woodworking men, who
have never been accustomed to commit
their ideas to paper. understand that
any kind of ffrewOod. or timber that Is
being split into Oven-wOOd, or riven in
to slaves or wagoA spokes, will separate
much more easily when split - slab fash
ion" than when separated in the direc-
ton from the heart toward the sap por-
ton of the log or stick. There is phil
osOphical reason for this. When a stick
is ''slab fashion" the parts are separated
betw cen the annual cOncentric circles oil
the tree, one of which is formed every
growing season. The union between
these annual layers. or rings OF wood, Is
not so perfect as it is between the partl-
cles which form ring or circle of the
wood. inexperienced men and boys do
not always understand how much adj
vantage may be taken of their hard la
Dor. when splitting wood. by under
standing this fact. When a log Is sawed
into short cuts, for example, to be split
into tirewoOd, two iron wedges and
beetle would be necessary to open cut
through the heart. But by taking of
thin slabs, most of the splitting may be
done with only an ak. SuGar-maple
sometimes is so difficult to split through
the heart that labOrer may drive i'll all
his wedges and gluts without being able
to open a log four feet long; whereas,
were they cut stabbed, the splitting
could be performed with cOmparativ ely
little labor. Then, after a log is split in
to thin slabs. the labor of splitting the
slabs the other way will be comparative
ly lights. E.. T. in Hearth and
Home.
