the revolution. as follows:
The Cubans endeavored to to cap
ture Guantanamo early Tuesday morn
ing, the 10th inst. The Cuban force
was 700 of the countrymen. while the
Spanla rs numbered 1000. The CGDuns
presented a body OF about 200 and
the balance advanced In ambush on
either side Of dehle. The spaniards
threw themselves into the denle on
the Cubans, killing IA. The ambushed
forces poured continuous volloy into
the Spanlards, completely demoralizing
them and compelling the formation OF
hollow square. After a long stand
with heavy losses the Spanlards made
cautious retreat. The engagement
lasted eight hours. The Cubans, be-
coming acquainted with the Spanish
numbers, withdrew.
Six thousand soldiers are now In
Guantanamo, and 400 more have been
asked for to protect the city against
the tnsurrectionists, who, the passen-
ge1s say, will make another attempt
to capture the town. The Cubans today

FOR HER CHAMPAGNE BATHS.
ana Her Lover Is Arrested for Stealing
the Sparkling Fluid.


Vienna. April l9.-Herr Feilenbauer
the Australian representative of large
French wine firm, has been arrested
here on the charge of having defraud-
ca ms employers to the amount OF
10000 francs.
What renders this arrest sensn-
tional is the fact that 100000 francs Of
this amount represents n few thnns,,,d
cases OF champagne, which were con-
lscated by the wine merchant for per-
sonal use, not to drink, but to be used
as baths by a pretty variety singer
with whom Herr Feilenhauer has fal-
len IN love. The name of the eNtyava-
giant demi-monde who uses eau de CO.

zika, who made her debut last year In
the Somossy Orpheum Of Budapest. on
account Of her piquant way Of war
bling popular dltties and her Innocent
mien, she became great favorlte with
theater-goers.
While on business visit to Buda-
pest Herr Feilenhauer, who has a wife
and child in Vienna. fell head over heels
In love with the bewltching chanteuse.
He INDUCED her in all her whlms-cost-
ly toilets jewelry, horses, carriages
and when she confided to him her pas
sion for champagne and eau de Coz
logne baths he sent her also barrel
upon barrel of the costly liquor Of his
firm. Mile. Joszika grew more beautif n
every day, while the FIRMS stock de-
creased in proportion.
A secret investigation Of the books
and stock during the lr;hnrios alb
sence from Vienna revealed the short
age in champagne and cash. The fam
lily Of the criminal have offered TO sat

feared that some of the smaller cred

A HISTORICAL MYTH,

There are few OF the schooiboys OF
several generations preceding the pres
ent WHO do not remember beng taught
that General Jackson won the battle OF
New orleans By throwing up breast
work OF cotton bales anu meeting the
British assault behind them.
dramatic account of this was in
all the school histories and several
others, ana the novelty of the affair ap-
Ine cold facts OF later history prove
this to have been hctiaI. Henry Ad-
ANS, IN his history OF Madlson's admins
iatrutiun, describes the battle OF New
orleans ana mentions no such feature.
McMnster, in his lateat volume, refers
TO the story In note only 10 say that
there were two or three cotton bales
used In one plnce.'and they were either
set on fire or knocked out at once.
Jackson's line OF breastworS8 was OF

trained sharpshOotcrs OF the West did
great work as mnrksmcn behind II,
and 20 CALLED the heavily laden British

but to be shot or retreat before the
