JOSE MARTI.

leader Of Cuban insurrectionists. Marti
warned secretly by friend, sent In his
resignation before either country had
the chance to remove him. II no longer
represent any country" he said; II am
henceforth only Cuban patriot"
At that time Marie Desquez, the
young woman in question, Of Spanish
descent though she was, showed Marti
a sympathy which won his heart. 1t
was hopeless passion from the start,
and he must have recognized 1t as such.
He had a wife and child in Cuba but al
though he had been estranged from
them for years, the young woman,
aware that he was not free, possessed
too fine a sense Of honor to respond to
his love, had she felt an equivalent af-
lection for him. This she did not feel.
A previous attachment to a man from
whom she had been temporarily es-
tranged and whom she afterwards mar
ried, controlled her throughout her as
sociations with Marti. Whatever may
have been the attitude of the revolu-
ZIONIST towards her, she consistently as
sured him that she could never consider
him more to her than friend. A day
came when she was led to believe that
some sorrow might come to their con-
tinuing to see each other, and when he
called on her one afternoon she babe
the servant say that she had gone away.
Then she stood and watched from be-
hind the curtain with fearful eyes. She
did not see him again until two years
after, when they met by chance in a
public place, and he spoke to her Of his
life work and of his having spoken in
public in one Of the great Tampa meet
ings--in English. He did not know, he
said how much power had come to him,
but he believed 1t was because he had
been thinking Of her. "Yo tie qulero-
20 tie Quiero!' he exclaimed, and then
they parted for the last time. But In
those months Of their acquaintance
Marti wrote many beautiful letters to
the young woman-letters which, even
in the translation, bear many charac-
teristics of his refined and poetic nature.
In one Of them he said:
In the shadowy corners Of my room
there seems to whisper, as IL softly dts

that troubles me. Within me, like a

Worldly wlse--in other words, filled
full to the lips with principle and the
decorous Ideas Of the world-the young
lady felt that she could not afford to
give this great man any affection that
might at any time be turned to reflect
unpleasantly upon her. She had had
her own romance, and was somewhat
cynical and lncredulous, She was capa-
bic of bitter remarks at times, even to
Martl, for whom she had a profound
reverence. She would never marry; she
would believe in no man as a lover
And with an increasing sense of right
and conventionallty on her part and Of
hopefulness and of misery on his, the
romance of Jose Martl dragged to an
end. In his last letter to her he said
1T may be that you will love some one;
1t may even be that you will be recon-
ciled to the lover who caused you such
pain before we met. 1t may be that you

How Ic9bergs Break From Glaciers.
The number of bergs given off varies
somewhat with the weather and the
tides, the average being one every five
or six minutes, counting only those
large enough to thunder loudly, and
make themselves heard at a distance
of two or three miles. The very larg-
est, however, may, under favorable
conditions, be heard ten miles or even
further. When large mass sinks
from the upper assure portion Of the
wall, there Is first keen, piercing
crash, then Deep deliberate, pro-
longed, laundering roar, which slowly
subsidies into low, muttering growl,
followed by numerous smaller, grating,
clashing sounds from the agitated bergs
that dance in the waves about the new
conner, as II in welcome; and these
again are followed by the swash and
roar of the waves that are raised and
hurled against the moraines. But the
largest and most beautiful Of the bergs
instead of thus falling from the upper
weathered portion Of the wall, rise from
the submerged portion with a still
grander commotion, springing with
tremendous voice and gestures nearly
to the top of the wall, tons of water
streaming like hair down their sides
plunging and rising again and again
before they finally settle in perfect
poise, free at last, after having formed
a part of slow-crawllng glacier for
enturies.-John Muir in Century.
