Charcoal Burners of Cuba.

During the first day of our excursion
our quest was rewarded with nothing in
the shape Of deep wood sights or tenantry,
though the very earth seemed filed with
songs and calls Of negritos, mayitos
cabreros. zorales, totises. chinchinguacos,
solviros, piorcras, savaneros, canaries and
mocking birds. which frequent the more
open districts and plantation trees and
hedges; but as we nearcd the denser
forests, along towards nightfall, we came
upon little settlement Of people well
worth going ii long distance to know
These were the Cuban carboneros or
charcoal burners AS all of the cooking
and much of the manufacturing requiring
heat in the Cuban cities are done with
charcoal, charcoal burning provides sort
of livelihood for small and picturesque
class. who fell timber and burn charcoal
at will in the countless island forests.
These carboneros comprise some queer
people. Most of them are inoffensive and
hospitable, but many are refugees from
the late revolution, for the Spanish
soldiery deem it wise not to disturb any
body in these almost inaccessible haunts
So, aside from insurgent refugees. in
nearly every carbonero's camp will also be
found, if you happen to be in company
with those whose sympathies are with
a certain flag which waved defiance to the
hated Spanish red and gold over the blood
swept fields of Camaguay. here and there

Those physical wrecks of men who pace
wearily up and down Broadway with pla-
cards on their fronts and backs and tamil
iarly called sandwich men. are not the
only persons who promenade as advertise
ments Comelier advertisers are several
girls sent out by leading mil:iner and
dressmaking establishments. They are
models chosen for perfection of face and
figure, clothed in the newest and most pro
nounced costumes or bonnets. and then
sent out to walk in Broadway and Fifth
avenue The girls selected for this par
ticular service are those who have been
for several years used in their employers
stores as models on which to show off
goods to wealthy purchasers. and thus
have become known to those customers so
well that. on being seen in the streets.
they are instantly recognized. Thus the
freshest wares offered for sale in those
particular shops are announced under the
most favorable circumstances. A dress
or bonnet seen out of doors on the per

the manufacturers who have resorted to
this novel method OF announcing their
novelties find a good profit In it.-New

In an article entitled Race and In
sanity" published in The American Jour
nal OF Insanity, Drs. Bannister and HEX
toen, physicians of the Illinois eastern
hospital for the insane, express the opin-
ion that there is little doubt but that
insanity is influenced by race. From the
statistics of three institutions in which
insane persons are treated they draw the
following conclusions: l. That in the
white race the Oppressive types of mental
disease are most frequent in the Germanic
and Scandinavian peoples, and least SO in
the Celts; the reverse Of this appears to
be tho case as to the exalted or maniacal
types, 2. That general paralysis is not a
disorder to which any race is immune. but
one that depends upon causes independent
Of racial or national peculiarities. g.
That the well known fact that insanity is
much moro common among the foreign
born than among natives in this coun-
try is not to any great extent explainable
by the shipment Of the defective classes
Of Europe to America.
The ''cranks" and epileptics and other
neurotic individuals do not appear to be
represented. in due proportion even.
among the foreigners in our asylums
The cause of the excess of foreign born
insane in this country is. it seems proba-
BILE, to be looked for mainly in the fact
that, supposing the immigration to in,
cludo only it's proportion of persons below
tho average of mental strength and aexi
hility, the change Of scene and associa-
tions, tho difficulties of beginning life
among them, dsappointments, homesick
ness, and all the other accidents and trials
that befall the new comers. together con
tribute 70 break down mentally vast
number who under other circumstances
would have escaped, and largely con-
tribute to the mass of insanity in this
