idly advancing on Havana. Insur-
gents under Antonio Maceo are in DOS.
session OF the entire east end of the
island, except the city of Santiago de
Cuba, and have levied tax on all the
farmers in that district. The farmers
pay tribute willingly, as they hate the
Spaniards, because of their oppression.
Martinez Campos, with 1000 Spanish
soldiers, Is moving toward Santa Clara
to check Gomez march toward Ha.
vana. Gomez is said to have 5000
well armed men. and news Of a battle
IS daily expected in Havana. The COM
mon people regard Gomez as a liberia
tor and are 1ocking to his standard.
They willingly furnish insurgents with
supplies. Gomez is reported as saying
he wants no more men, but arms and
ammunition. The report that Sando.
val. who led the forces who murdered
MART, has been captured is confirmed.
1t is said he will be shot.
1t is reported in Havana that several
expeditions are being fitted out at Costa
RIGA and Mexican ports. The Spanish
gunboats are ordered to keep a sharp
lookout for them. A band Of 100, under
command Of Machada, in the Las Viii
las district, has joined the insurgents.
Spanish troops in the field suffer for
food and clothing, and the people re-
fuse to furnish supplies even when a
is offered. The soldiers are forced to
subsist on the coarsest kind Of food.
and even that is given to them in small
quantities.. just barely enough to live
on. Spanish troops are wearing the
same clothing worn when they came to
Cuba, and most Of them are in rags.
Many wash them in the river and wait
in the bushes for them to dry. They
have been carried through 80 many en-.
gagements and kept going from one
place to another until they are in a
miserable condition. These conditions
have caused scores of Spanish soldiers
to desert. and suicides are not infre-
quen;. Spanish authorities are rigor.
ously enforcing press censorship and
keep the facts from being known.

Gambling Is Worse Than Drunkenness t.

q drinking partner Oh employees, but
more often than not you know nothing
Of the gamblers downward progress
until your losses tell the tale. | have
seldom seen a case in which the habit
of gambling did not have the compan-
ion habit of lying. The lying gets worse
as the gambling becomes confirmed.
Your gambling associate comes along
with such a cheerful mask of falsehood
that you are indignant when somebody
intimates that he is treading the dan
gerous path of dalliance with cards or
horses.
""Some years ago l had a little expe-
rience which I've no doubt many mer-
chants can duplicate. l was a manag-
ing partner in a branch of inc Of the
most extensive houses in st. Louis. We
had a salesman whom we valued high
ly. 1: came to our knowledge that he
was falling in love with poker. l said
that he must be warned. The other
partner thought he was all right, but
consented to the warning. In a few
months the man collected a bill and
lost the money at poker. then insisted
on reporting a discharge to the main
firm, but my partner stuck to his faith
in the mans promises. Finally we COM
promised by retaining the delinquent
on condition that my partner notify the
firm that he would be personally re-
sponsibls for losses caused by a repeti-
ton of the occurrence. We also sent to
every customer a notice that all bills
should be paid directly to our head
quarters.
Before six months had passed the
salesman managed to collect a bill of
81, 500 and lost every dollar.
my partner took the money out of
his pocket and reimbursed the firm. 1t
is not necessary to tell anybody who
knows gamblers that he never received
q cent from the man he had befriended.

THE PLAINS IN WINTER.

a Journey Across the Continent In March
Is Like . Voyage.
The journey across the continent from
west to east in midwinter is very much
like q voyage. When one lands at St.
Paul from the overland train, it is with
all the sensations of making port after
having passed over the icebound sea Of
the plains.
The uniform dazzle of miles of mo-
notonous snow, broken only where it
sinks to indigo shadow OF swells to
crests Of intolerable light, has for days
given to the world outside the pane q
sentiment of immensely rarely matched
by the moving sea.
There is majesty in the limitless
sweep of level earth, so slightly over
arched by the level sky, but majesty
that becomes desolation when seen in
intimate relation to human life.
A furry team of horses struggling
across the plains, drawing a meager
sledge load Of firewood along a narrow
trail in the snow to some unseen farm
house, alternating through the long
winter months for the resurrection of q
few fierce weeks of summer sunshine; q
little schoolhouse of unplaned boards
perched on a swell of the vast, silent
landscape; n farmhouse backed by barn
and corral, with a tiny yard in front
encircled by a tawdry frill of white
washed paling, showing yellow above
the snowfall these, with miles of snow
between. pierce n with a keener sense
of loneliness than could any personal
experience.
The human element is so inadequate
that II passes these scattered evidences
of a struggle for life as in a sound ship
one might pass a frail craft at sea.
There are eagle minds upon which
this solemn hostility of unconquered
nature acts as q challenge; Il sees this
in the voice and step and eye of men
who have built Dakota and Montana
towns. Sturdy and unawed, they have
fought their way and wrested for them
selves a foothold on the great inhospi-
table plains.
The level iridescent blaze of cloud
less winter days, the t~reeless prairies
af1ame with color materialized in a
thousand wild flowers, the dreary swells
of autumn brown, lifted here and there
into sharp buttes of threatening stone
each in its own way impresses the
imagination, but repels the nesting in
stinct OF home seeking man.-Atlantic

Two Letters Which Show How S~erioNatIs
the Revolution.
NEW YORK, July 11.-Some idea of
the woful condition of Cuba, and of
spain, too, wrought by the revolution,
is gained from two letters received re-
Gently by a prominent business man in
this city. Both of these letters were
written by Spaniards, one living in
Spain and the other in Cuba. The let
ter from Spain is as follows:
1T would delight me much if your
desires that Cuba should be annexed to
the United States could be realized.
because, as you we'll say, this today
unfortunate island would in a short
space Of time rival the richest and most
cultivated countries in the world. Here
the misery is frightful. 1t is impossible
to go into the streets without being &C.
costed every w steps by men, women
and children asking aims. 1t is i'm.
possible to say where this will stop, for
things are in a desperate condition, and
if to this you add the heartrending and
cruel spectacle OF SC many unhappy

then OF vomit and other diseases of the
climate, you can calculate what a pic.
ture this country today Offers 1t seems
incredible that a handful OF men. who
regard only their W personal inter
ests, can sport with a people as their
actual governors are now sporting
with the Spanish people. And now it
is reported that the government in
tends t 0 send 80, 900 or 40, 900 more
men to Martinez Campos, which means
that 40, 600 more homes will be sunk in
misery and desolation. God help us.
h Letter From Cubs.
The letter from Cuba reads as fol-
lows:
I'VE would be very glad to say to
you that the situation in this island
was less grave, but unfortunately to
say so would be to lie, for economically
and politically it continues to grow
worse. The war, contrary to expecta-
tons of most Of the people. has in
creased greatly, becoming general all
over the island, and news published in
the papers cannot be believed, because
no editor can, under severe penalties.
publish other than government notices.
But constantly more and more troops
are asked from Spain, and here the
corps of volunteers arc being modified.
The discomfort is general, because of
the uncertainty Of the truth of what is
occurring, and no n knows where
these unhappy events will end"

Contention is waxing warn over the
agricultural college presidency and other
pro~fessorships. The board of regents
which has the power Of nominating the
new faculty throughout has just had q
meeting at Huron and adjourned to the
JOth at Brookings. All the members 'ui
the board were present besides two OF
the former members who have been sup
planted-G. j. Collier of:Brookings and
Er. Finnerud Of Watertown-and who
claim 10 be members still. An injunc-
ton has been taken out restraining these
gentlemen from sitting as regents and
the adjournment has been taken to give
time for a ruling of the supreme court
upon the Injunction. The bone of CON
tention in the board is whether Presi-
dent McLouth who resigned six months
ago shall be reelected president and GER
tain other professors who are considered
incompetent retained or whether the
latter shall be retained and McLouth 20.
On this subject there is a butter faction
al tight between members of the
boards of trustees and of the regents.
President McLouth was last week elect
ed secretary OF the local board Of
trustees at its reorganization and this
would indicate that % is going to be a
resident OF the state and possibly fortl-
flying himself for a march to the presi-
dency. While the board OF regents
were In session at Huron, j. w. Shannon
president Of that board and editor OF the
Huronite, came out in an editorial in his
paper as follows:
This board, under the constitution,
mas the nomination Of the new faculty OF
the college. A clear majority are evil
IDENTIFY very warn friends of DIR. Nc.
Louth. They have to deal with his resiQ.
nation and his reelection as secretary
would indicate the possibility of his re-
naming as a citizen Of the state. While
the Huronite has never, since the ten
dered resignation, advocated his reten.
ton as president OF the college, it has
no objection to such result if the boards
will go ahead and give him associates
worthy and loyal. 1t is evident that the
finding OF 9 better mar is not 80 easy as
some have imagined. To replace a row
OF the tin gods, who are constantly on.
spring to make trouble with genuine
college men and teachers is a great deal
easier, and the opportune IN )ment is at
hand. Let the trustees cut deep, put
ting aside every political and persona,
consideration, in behalf OF the real inter
ests OF the great work, and the present
regent board will be almost unanimous
in adopting its recommendations"

Sioux Falls Press, 10: An effort will
