The project Of building a railroad in

made some time ago. The line OF the
road is through Oak Greek canon. and
is Intended to tap the rich mineral dis

route of the road was such that at

route is said to be free from these DIFF

Jumping Isean-.

Jumping beans threaten to become
as great a fad with those who admire
odd pets as chameleons were about a
year ago As most people know by
this time. the movements of the beans
are caused by a little worm inside.
They come from Mexico. where a
Chicago man has collected large num-
bers of them. and has cornered the
market The worms are said to be a
species of chrysalis. and in time de-
velop into butterflies. II the craze
doesn't die out before the Indians and
the jumping-bean agents have col
leeted all the worms. Mexico may be
minus a species of butterfly at a GER
tain season.

was received here today:
I'm Camp Providence Of Camaguay,
May 6. Again we have routed the
Spanish. This morning while on our
way to join General Gomez, we met
$500 Spaniards under General Salcedo,
who was on his way to attack Gomez,
and mistook our band for his. We
numbered 200, under Colonel Roderi-
gueZ.
When the advance guards was driven
in by Spaniards we Immediately farmed
in line and awaited the Spanish charge.
They came on quickly but broke before
our fire.
Twice again they started the same
game, party endeavoring ii secure our
left flank after their third failure; we
charged and again routed them. The
rangers were the first to break the
Spanish ranks.
Our killed and wounded numbered
252. The Spanish killed and wounded
and missing was over 1000. We have
learned from prisoner just brought
in that General Salcedo was killed at
the final charge, but his body is not yet
found. We join Gomez in the morning
at Guaymaro, which he hastaken.
