AN1OEAO N. AOfSA IN Cuba III 1859.
The history of the case is interesting.
The claimant, Antonio Maxine Mora,
now resident of New York, was born
in Cuba and inherited vast estate, con-
sisting mainly of an extensive sugar
plantation. In 1853 he left his p1anta-
ton in the hands of trusted employees
and went to New York, where he estab-
hshed the commercial house Of Mora,
Navarro & Co. In May, 1869, he took
out his final naturalization papers and
became an American citizen.
In the Cuban rebellion of 1859 Mora
was unjustly accused of aiding the in
surgents. Unfortunately he CHANGED to
be in Cuba at the time. A court martial
was hastily convened at Havana, and
Mora was condemned to death, and his
valuable estates were confscated, despite
the fact that he was a citizen of the
United States. After suffering great pri-
vations and enduring many perils he
guise of sailor.
The attention of Hamilton Fish, then
secretary Of state, was called to the out
rage, and Caleb Gushing, United States
minister to Madrid, was directed to Of
hc1ally protest against the sentence of
the court martial and demand repara-
ton. The Spanish government, though
tacitly admitting the justice of the
claim, pursued an evasive and dilatory
policy regarding it, and years were
passed in Intellectual negotiations and
correspondence.
When Alfonso came to the throne,
among the earliest acts of his admins
tration was to order the restitution Of
Morals estates, but the Cuban authori-
ties refused to obey the order. On the
contrary, they sold the estates.
Voluminous and Intellectual CORE
spondence followed for the next ten
years In 1885 the Spanish cortes offer
ed a compromise, agreeing to pay Mora
$1,50O,OOO indemnity, which was but
small portion of the original value of
the property. This Mora accepted, but
the money has not yet been paid. Our
government now demands prompt pay
ment of the amount, with interest from
1886.
Mora is now 80 years old, in feeble
health, living with his daughter in COM
parative poverty in a four room fat in
New York waiting for the restoration Of
some portion of the millions taken from
him by Spain.

school Her early education was received
in an academy at Holly Springs and
completed at Fisk university in Nash

done at Fisk, where she was connected
with the college paper. Leaving college,
she became a teacher and contributor
to newspapers.
In 1888 she became editor of the
Memphis Free Press. While on this pa
per she wrote an article on lynching
which made her an exile from that city.
She then spent some time in Philade1-
phia and New York and later went to
Chicago. where she met her husband,
and through him received employment
on his paper, The Conservation. In 1898
she went to England on lecturing tour.
Her patrons were the bishop of Man

PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT.

j. s. Collins Says There are Fewer Vacant
Houses in Topeka Than for Years.
j. S. Collins, the real estate man, has
just been east, and having been out of
Kansas for short time, is moro than
ever satisfied with it.
"There is a big difference of opinion
in the east regarding Kansas now, to
what there was two years ago. The
eastern investor no longer turns up his
nose at the Kansas Investment | be-
lieve we will have more inquiries for
Kansas lands in the next year than we
have had in the entire five just passed.
The real estate men in Topeka today
have fewer vacant houses than they ever
had. I know 1 have, and 1 believe the
town is fuller than it ever was beto re in
spite of the census recently taken. I
don't want to make any charges against
any body, but l am sure there must have
been some mistake about it."

That Texas Road WIN be in Operation In

The Interstate railroad of which To-

which has been the subject of so much
comment, is at last said to be thoroughly
under way from Beaumont to Galveston,
Texas. The grading was completed some
time ago and now the steel is on the
ground and track laying will begin.
Beaumont is lumber town of 1000 III
habitants and the mills there have do
mated the ties. In three months at the
outside says Mr.. Close the road will have
trains running over its ninety miles of
track and the Beaumontians will be
happy. Five engines will handle the
business. The company has land at
Beaumont and three hundred acres at
Winnie, which is the principal informed
late point
Dir. Close is much encouraged: his
road is at least as far along as the Topeka
dams.

A NOTABLE WEDDING.
The Recent Marriage of Ida B. Wells OF
AntiIynching Fame.

The Recent Marriage of Ida B. Wells of
Antilynching Fame.
The recent marriage at Chicago of Ida
B. Wells to Ferdinand L. Barnett at
tracts considerable attention, owing to
the world wide notoriety achieved by
the bride in her crusade against lynch
ing in the south. The engagement was
the result Of friendship growing out Of
business relations and ripening into love
and was measurably due to the good Of
fees of the late Frederick Douglass. He
was mutual friend of Miss Wells and
Mr.. Barnett. One day when he was in
Chicago he said to Miss Wells: Barnett
is a fine gentleman. He likes you and
will make you good husband. " Doug
lass told Barnett, too, that Miss Wells
was real rice girl for him, and so they
were mated.
Miss Wells was born at Holly Springs,
Miss, and is about 30 years of age. She
lost her parents when child, and her
early life was a struggle with poverty
in the support of a younger brother and
