MRS DE- flthAhho- with all der heart
Her family Is one Of the oldest In Puerto
Principe and prior to the great ten years
revolution that began In 1858 was wealthy
and influential. Itsmembers were patriots,
and when hOstilities with Spain began
they devoted their wealth and thei1 lives
to the struggle for Cuban independence.
Three sons were killed in battle two were
captured and garrOted by the Spanish
troops, all the family property was given
TO the insurgents or was cOnhscated by the
government, and at the end Of the long but
unsucoessful revolution but three sons and
a daughter. the heroine Of this narrative,
remained of the large family. The daugn-
ter married wealthy physician of Puerto
Principe who died seven years ago. When
the present revolution began, his wife was
living in Puerto Principe and Immediately
began urging the patriots Of the province
to Join the insurgents. The people, how
ever. were slow to act, because Of the fact
that they possessed little ammunition. In
this emergency Mrs. De Pichardo yolun-
teered to procure the necessary "sinews OF
war" I'm Havana. She secured 500 rounds
of ammunition and some hospital supplies,
and then arose the difficult problem OF
placing the supplies in the hands OF the
Puerto Principe patriots.
The Spanish authorities were continual
ly on the alert, but Mrs. De Pichardo be-
lieyed she could outwit them. She hid the
cartridges in the false bottoms OF her
trunks, placed the hospital supplies among
her clothing and hid numerous important
letters about her person. she then sailed
| for Puerto Principe, passed the Spanish
officials in safety, had her trunks delivered
at the house of a trusted patriot, and within
a few hours the patriots of Puerto Principe
well armed and supplied with ammunition,
were on their way to join the insurgent
forces. Before noon of the following day
nearly every prominent family in the PROV
ince had a representative in the patriot
army.
Her work done, Mrs. De Pichardo knew
she must leave Cuba 1T once CT be pun
| ished as soon as the authorities learned OF
the service she bad done the insurgents
She was searched By the Spaniards at Ha
yana, but they found nothing, and SHE
| hurriedly sailed for New York, where she
is now hard at work collecting funds fGl
the cause of the patriots. She is WON
an of commanding presence and seems L
possess no end of nerve and courage.

den work in for his mother.
He remembered just where it was,
and yesterday he took it out because
he was going to Hartwell to spend Sun
day. .He jumped into the car beside
sweet young lady with whom he was
very proud to be seen. They alighted
at the corner of Fourth and Walnut

on a Coyington car, he raised the um.
