Excitement ran at fever heat in Ybor
City last night. War had begun in
Cuba for her liberation. The tidings
for the fair enslaved isle were meagre
and vague, yet there was credited init
nation of an uprising against Spanish
dominion in Cuba. This was enough to
infame the heart of Cubans hereabouts
with exultant enthusiasm, ever sanguine
and ardent in their revolutionary
schemes and enterprise. Cubans were
iubilant The office of Cuba was i.lum-
mated and thronged with eager patfI7

gathering of war clans. Many houses
were deserted. Several families met at
the house of friend to talk over their
hopes and fears. 1t was something IKE

The Fifty-third Congress, now in sess-

confidence to the industrial, commercial
and financial interests of the country. 1t
can accomplish the work OF restoration
within ~ hours. Congress needs but to
do two things.
First-PasS the bill for the uncondltlon-
al repeal of the Sherman silver law.
Second-Pass joint resolution declar-
ing that the present Congress will not
,meddle with the protective tariff.
The first will restore financial conf
tLence; the second will do the same for
our manufacturers, wholesalers and re-
tai,ers. The mills and factories wills start
thousands of idle men be again given
steady work, and the prosperity we en-
loved a few months ago be ours.

THE TWO TRAVELLING MEN

Last fall the two great political parties
sent their respective candidates, like two
travelling men, on the road to take or
ders. The various representatives OF the
Republican party had been taking Uncle
Sam orders during most of the time for
the past 80 years, to his entire satistac-
tion. There had been no substituting,
no bats, no shipping in part, no DELAYS,
and, in fact, everything had been dchv-
cred as ordered, and there was, and is
now, plenty of the same goods to be had
Of the same old Republican house on the
same terms. But last fall the Democratic
salesman promised so much that the old
man thought bc could do better, and con-
,cluded W. woud like a "changc." He
vas promised cheaper goods, better
wages or profits, more business, and
more money to do business with His
pension would be all right, and, as the
agent, Grover Cleveland, said, his gen
eral condition would be much better than
while dealing with Ben Harrison. the
man who wore his "grandfather's hat, y
and the other agents for the old, reliable
Republican house.
Well, now, Uncle Sam. old boy, how
has Agent Cleveland apd his house treatcc
you? Where are all the advantage:
promised you? Where are the increased
profits or wages? Where is the plentiful
money of last year? Why are your fac
tories closed, your banks busted and YOU
pension cut off? Why are men out o
work by the million, and why, i'll some
cities, do they parade the streets, crying
for work or bread? Surely, now thes
are not the goods YOU bought Of Mr.
cleveland and his house? 1t must b.
then that Mr.. Cleveland and his hous
can't deliver the goods because the
never had them in stock to deliver
Uncle Sam made big mist in chang
ing houses, and the only thing he can d,
is to wait patiently until representative
of ihc good old Republican house come
around again, and then lay in a goo
stock of protection, honest money, plent
Of work, good wages and full line i
general, that the old house has Away

VRRAGUA EXPECTS SOMETHING.

MADRID, October 16.-The Duke De
Veragus with his family has returned
here from his visit to the United States,
after having stayed for some months at
San Sebastian The Duke is eloquent
Ia praise of the reception given him by
the great American people. de says
his ancestor, Columbus, could never
have imagined that such a great nation
as the North Americans would ever
have lourished in the lands he had dis
covered across the Atlantic; that the
highest state Of civilization should exist
in the new world where Columbus found
only savaGes.
The Duke considers himself fortunate
in having accepted the invitation OF the
United States, as through the gener-
osity of that great people and out OF
gratitude TO the family Of Columbus for
mis- discovery of the new world from
which event the Udited States have
been the principal %gainers) the dilapi-
dated fortunes of the descendants OF
Columbus are likely to be repaired.

New YORK, October 16.-A morning

Saunders, OF Montana, arrived from
Washington yesterday. Ex-senator
Saunders declared that In his Judgment
unconditional repeal Of the Sherman

week, incorporating the best features
Of the Harris, Faulkner and Blackburn
bills. While Mr.. Saunders was chat
ting, Col. Thomas C. Ochiltre walked
into the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Catching
sight OF the Montana man he exclaimed:

Isaw Mrs. Wal Cheong the other day
stepping from a carriage to her door.
She is a fine looking lady about FIVE
feet six inches tail, aud decidedly in
clined 20 embonpoint, and yet she was
hobbling about on feet not three inches
long. 10 is gratifying TO find that while
ioot-biudiug is fashionable in China the
practice is not popular in California.
Some pictures are given Of two pretty
young Chinese ladies with feet their
natural size. Another picture shows
Miss Kwei Ia, a small-iooted native
daughter Of the golden west. She be-
longs TO one Of our best Chinese fami-
lies, and is a very sweet young lady.
The other day l saw Mrs. Leong
Tong. wife Of the secret partner OF the
firm Of Heng Chong Sc Co. She was &C
comDauied by her daughter and both
were elegantly attired. The mother
wore a satin kilt skirt with large box
plaits OF blue and black, embroidered
e sore and behi d, and killed on each
side. The shams or overdresses were
Of rich purple bIOCaded silk, with the
now fashionable broad sleeves OF I'M
mense width, the inside being lined
with blue silk. The glitter from there
diamond rings drew our attention 70
hands of lily whiteness and a wrist that
bore bangles OF chased gold and d
DaleSt OF Jade. Her earrings were stud
ded with pearls from each OF which
hung the usual ring of jade. Her head
was without bonnet, the hair was done
up fin the style called sho kai-6eing
the mark that distinguishes matron
and iaaid-and was set with artificial
flowers, bars and pins Of gold and drops
OF pearls. She said 1t took her maid
two hours 10 dress her hair and I don't
doubt it.
A few ladies' in Chinatown have ac-
Quired IN American education, have
been through the public school, and
are imbued with American ideas.
Some were born in this land and are
proud Of their birthplace. Those who
have grown up have married rich
Chinese merchants. American furni-
ture, carpets, comfortable beds and a
piano or organ are found in their
homes. They can cook and bake bread
and play the piano ike American
women aud their husbands idOlize them.
They live 2 dual kind Of life. One even
ing they are seen at the Chinese theatre
in| gorgeous Chinese dress Of silks and
satius, another night they may seen at

SWEETEST and handsomest Chinese ladies'

ladies' have adopted American
