THE FUTURE OF CURA

An Old Havanese Who Says n Sale ia
This Country viii Never Take Place.
Philadelphia Times.
Il have no sources of information out
side OF the city of Havana, where nv
brother resides, said well known Wal
nut street shipping merchant Yesterday,
when asked if he had any news about
Aguero's filibustering expedition. The
speaker has spent thirty-seven years of
his life in Havana.
There is a telegram from New York
indicating that it is possible that the is
land will be sold by the Spanish Govern
ment to the United States" said the re-
porter.
Don't you believe a word of this. A
sale will never be accomplished. There
isn't man in Spain, no matter how high
his position, that dares suggest, much
less carry out, such an idea. 1t
would be political death for him to do
so. Cuba has so long been the Eldorado
of the Spaniards that even now, when
her treasury is depleted and her business
ruined, they still cline to the shell they
have sucked SO dry. No man knows the
Spaniards better than I, for l lived among
themthe best years of my life. No,
sir; the day is coming when Cuba will
come out from under the Spanish yoke,
but she will do it herself. No revolution
started by Cuban juntas in New York or
fillibustering expeditions from Key West
will accomplish this. 1t will come about
in this wise: Some day Spain will place
the last feather of oppression on the back
of the Cuban people and they will revolt
1t will be revolution on paper, pro-
nunciamento-not drop of blood will
be she'd The island will simply assert
its independence and that will conclude
the whole matter.

Trade Is So Dull.

To stop advertising means the dullest
kind of business, and it is surprising in
these days to find men when solicited for
ads. to make the excuse that trade is dull
But it is fact when merchants are busy
and their clerks are run to death, unable
to wait on customers and working over
hours to straighten up stock, is the very
season when the advertising solicitor is
most certain to obtain an order for almost
any medium, be it good, bad or indiffer-
ent. The true time to advertise is when
trade flags, and the most SUCCESSFUL mer-
chant is he who keeps his card in the
press every day in the year, no matter
whether business is good or bad. 1t is
just as necessary for his name and bust
ness to be in the columns of the daily
press as to have it painted on sign over
his door, and the time is fast approaching
when he only who does this will be re-
garded as a safe and reliable business
man.

CRIME AND CRIMINALS.

Murder in VoIusia County---Music
and the Shot-gun--Gambler
and the Law.
The negroes of Draytona had a grand
frolic on the night of May Gath, at the
house of one, Charles Jackson. The god
dess of the double-shuffile was duly hon
ored till late, when the festivities We're
disturbed by general quarrel. Some of
the participants quilted the scene, and
the remainder kept up the excitement
till near dawn, when the host, Jackson,
was shot directly in the face. The load
of buck-shot from double-barrel gun
literally tore off the upper portion of his
head and face. He was dead before he
fell Deputy Sheriff Peter Cone was in
formed that one George Mitchell had
left early in the evening, found a shot
gun, returned about a, M, committed
| the murder and departed for more CON
genial regions. The suspected man left
| Daytona Immediately, walked twenty
miles, and rode in a wagon ten miles,
reaching Volusia at p. m. of the 25th,
| where he took the steamer Anita for Pa
| latka. Close at his heels came the Depu-
| ty Sheriff. who arrived about D. m. and
| took the City of Jacksonville for the same
place. Mr.. Cone based his calculations
on the dread of the Geographic arrests so
often made in Jacksonville and the ter
ror of Marshal Vinzant, which is felt by
evil-doers all over the State. So he
found Deputy Sheriff Montmollin, of
| Putnam, Immediately on his arrival at
| Palatka, and the two watched the crowds
around the Florida Southern depot on
the morning of the Goth, Soon the man
was spotted, sitting quietly, with the
shotgun on his lap; in company with
noted gambler named Charles Shepard.
Mr.. MontmOllin walked up to the unsus-
pecting man, collared him, and Mr.. Cone
clicked the handouts into place. Shepard
stared, then walked off with a cOnse-
quential air and a large bouquet in his
buttOn-hOle. When Mitchell was secured
Mr. Montmollin walked up to Shepard as
he paced down the street, and arrested
him. Geo. Mitchell is stout negro of
about five feet nine inches and fighting
weight Of some 1876 lbs.
Charles Shepard is well-known to the
police of Jacksonville as well as of Pa
latka, and we understand. Marshal Vim
zant has been keeping a bright lookout
for him. He is dark in color, tall, with
a great scar on his face and a pleasant
smile. The vigilant watch kept under
the new regime here made him uncom-
Portable in Palatka, and he transferred
his operations to the camp on the P. & /.
R, R., where he had six pals armed
with pistols and three repeating rifles.
Here he made his boasts that he could
protect himself and friends against any
interference and, for while, did quite a
thriving business. But an affidavit was
made before Justice Healy who lodged a
capias with Mr.. Cone. The parties, how
ever, rifles and ALL took to the swampa
and scattered; so the warrant was re-
turned mot served" and an alias issued.
The sudden apparition of "Shep" was
therefore peculiarly gratifying to the
man-hunter from VOlusia, who took un-
der the shelter of his arms both birds and
: left for home.

short time since an able bodied tramp
called at the residence of MIR. Isaiah
McCasky, who resides on one of Col.

was not at home at the time, and this
fact may have been known by the tramp,

eat, and threatened to kill Mrs. McCas-
Ky if his demand we're not complied
with. Mrs. McCssky, who was up
stairs at the time, raised window and
told the tramp to leave the premises
that she did not have anything TO give
him. This seemed to enrage the dar-
