CUBAN REVOLUTION NEWS
Two Spanish Garrisons Suren-
der to the Insurgents.

Havana, june 26.-The most
serious news Of Spanish disas-
tiers received here since the out
break of the rebellion reach
ed here this evening. The gar
risons of two towns have sur
rendered and the places them
selves have been burned by
Maxine Gomez.
Firing was heard constantly
around Puerto Principe last
night and extraordinary precau-
tons are being taken to protect
the city. Owing to the restric-
tons placed by the government
upon the transmission of tele-
grams concerning the insured
ton only the most meagfe de-
tails Of the disaster are obtain
able. 1t appears certain,
however, that the garrison at
Ell Mulato, in the province of
Puerto Principe, near the city
of Puerto Principe, has sur
rendered to Maxine Gomez.
The garrison consisted Of about
twenty five Spanish soldiers
under Lieut.. Romero and they

q. S. detachment is a credit to
all concerned in it, and will
long 1emain a monument to
their patriotic zeal. The neigh
bors are staining their eyes for
a sight of those glorious stars
and stripes, which we trust will
soon be flying from its top.
Mr.. McGinnis is the happy
possessor of the original receipt
for making "chiIe can carne. "
He obtained it from an old
Mexican who claims an uninter-
rupted descent and there is 10
doubt that this is the same
dish which oft times adorned
the festive boards of those
royal monarchs.
Mr.. Chas Starck, who is the
acknowledged authority on all
matters pertaining to farms in
this vicinity, informs me that
the crop this season will sur
pass even the most sanguine
expectations-but the entire
profits of the watermelon crop
have been eaten up by the
soldiers stationed at the sub
post.
The false alarm concerning
the arrival of the steamer
Bessie, hearing her whistle
down the riverj ETC., upon
investigation was traced to
the sub-post; where Privates
Seuseney and Critchfeld were
found fast asleep and snoring
in perfect tune and unison,
in accordance with the com
mands of Sergeant Minton, who,
we understand had Threatened
them with a General Court
Martial, shonld they by any
misfortune snore fat and out
of tune.

iful, notwithstanding the moon

My Dear JaCk,-I would have
written to you before, but have
been so busy writing items for
THE BROWNSVILLE HERALD, that
| have not had a minute to call
my own. The editor is a very
decent and gentlemanly fellow
and always does the proper
thing. Cash is rather scarce
now, and the price of drinks
high, and no credit, so you
will easily understand that it
behooves me to put my inven-
tive genius into operation, even
if'I have to use you as the
objective point. You must not
mind this, for 1 will make ii
all right with you when you
come in.
1t you think well of it, you
may see Mr.. Rabb and say to
him that l will write him up
an elavorate article for ptbli-
cation on the merits, beauty
and fertility of his ranch at
Santa Maria, and that / will
take my pay out in water
melons.
l tried to send you some news
over the wire, but old McGovern
won't send a word of personal
matter unless 1 fork over the
cash. How do you fix it at
your end of the line2
There is no news of any kind
just now, allow harping on that
same old theme, "What /, saw
said and did, during my visit
to Topo Chico. Lyons deep
in the mysteries of the Ord
nance Department, Corporal
Cooper, as usual; roasting pea
nuts' and the Post Sergeant
Major becoming more Gloss
every day from glancing down
sideways at the augmentation
to his chevrons and stripes.
Should you have no use for
that ten dollar William that I
owe you, ] can employ it to
advantage in paying off my
washerwoman, as it is almost
impossible to stand her off an
other month.
If there is a hen roast within
q ten mile radius Of your local
ity, l trust you will put into
pra' tice those principles which
l have so strongly advocated
and which in the past, when
tried by myself, never failed
to give good results.
Yours very sincerely,
AMiCUs.

hoese, fortified with paliS.t
and pierced with loopholes for
rifles. The place was also
proviSioned and contained a
considerable stock Of ammuni-
ton. During the unexplaina-
bic absence of Lieut.. Romero,
the fort was surrounded By
about 1000 insurgents under
the command of Gomez. The
latter gave the soldiers fifteen
minutes in which to surrender
The lieutenant surrendered the
garrison against the desire Of
the soldiers, VINO were very in
dignant at being compelled to
capitulate without firing shot
When the garrison was in the
insurgents, Gomez ordered the
village Of Ell Mulato to be burn
ed, and after depriying Lieut.
Romero of his arms set him at
liberty. The lieutenant was
afterward arrested by the au
thorities Of Puerto Pricipe and
it is thought that he will be.
promptly tried by court martial
and shot.
In addition the town of San
Geronimo has met the same
fate. 1t was attacked by the
insurgents under Maxine Go
mez and was burned to the
ground after its garrison Of
about fifty men had surrender
ed. Advices from Puerto Prili
cipe indicate the city is iufest-
ed by insurgents. The MILL
