CUBAN NEWS.

TAMPA, Fla, April 22.-The fol-
lowing letter, has just been re-
ceived from Gen. Enrique Collazo,
who recently left this city on an
expedition TO Cuba:
"LA CORoNELA, Cardenas, April
al have been more than agree
ably surprised since my arrival
here. None outside of the island
can imagine the magnitude or
power of the revolution. The pow
or of the Spanish government does
not extend beyond the ground that
their soldiers occupy, and that on
ly while occupied, where they live
well entrenched, and the cities
they inhabit. Not an estate grinds
without our permission even 'Por-
tugalete,' belonging to Don Man
uel Calvo, chief supporter Of
the Spanish government in Gu
ba, has framed and hung
up over the entrance to the estate.
Maxine Gomez's order for it's pro-
lection. Since my arrival here, L
have seen many Spanlards who
have been turned out of our
ranks as "Spaniards" and as
such are suspected by our
forces. They have to work or
starve and as they cannot make
a living in towns, they work in
fields. We do not interfere with
them and yet every now and then
they fall victims to Weyler's COM
panions whose conduct is all the
more vile and Infamous because
1t is so hypocritical. He protests
publicly against these outrages
but his private orders are to the
contrary. They call us incendiaries
and yet they burn everything
they come across where they
know the poor owners have not the
means Of letting the outside world
know what is going on. The greater
part of the killed they report con-
sists of "pacifiicos" who live in the
country by permission Of the Span
ish, in order to gain their living,
and not starve in cities. These are
the victims and these are the ones
who go to fill up the number Of
their so-called skilled" in the bat
tie. The wake of the Spanish
troops can be followed by burnt re-
mains of small huts and the de-
struction Of every farm or bit OF
land that is under cultivation,
Every horse or animal they come
across is killed so as to prevent us
from utilizing them.

A TELEPHONE TRICK.
st. Louis Convention Will be Strung To-
cetber m a Telephone Wire.

gether on a Telephone Wire.
ST. LOUIS, April 22.-When the
republican national convention
meets in this city on June Ii to
nominate a candidate for president
and vice. president, the public will
witness a novelty in the big con-
vention, 1t is announced by the
Bell Telephone company, through
it's local manager, George F. Dent.
The proposition is something new
and original. Although it has not
vet gone before the subcommittee
having charge Of the convention
arrangements, it is said to be prac-
tically assured that it will be
adopted. 1t is to connect the va
rious state delegations with the
speakers desk by telephone, so
that the chairman may know the
name OF every man who is recog-
nized and thus be enabled to an
nounce his name to the conven-
ton. The telephone scheme, it is
claimed, will do away with the an
noyance and loss of time that has
so long been a source of worry to
the managers of national conven-
tions. The details of the plan pro-
posed does not differ from the sys-
tenn OF room to room telephoning
in vogue in larger hotels. There
will be switch back Of the speakers
stand and from there the operator
will connect the various delega-
lions with the chairman, or with
each other, as the case may be.
The arrangements for giving the
news to the outside world by tele-
graph will be the finest and most
complete ever attempted at ma
tional convention. In order to be
able to handle the great press OF
business the Western Union Tele-
graph company is stringing six
new copper wires from st. Louis
to Chicago, and four from here to
New York. This will give tn is
city the best telegraphic system
with the outside world this city
has ever known. About fifty loops
will be run into the hall. The pos.
tai company is also making great
pre- parations for the convention.
Tn rec coppers wires are being
strung from this city to Chicago
and two more to New York direct.

Fight in Sight Over a Mine.

IDAHO SPRINGS, Col, April 22.-
Great excitement prevails here
over the possession Of the Bismarck
mine and it appears as il there
would be pitched battle over the
possession of the property in the
next "a hours. Those interested
refuse to speak, but it is said an or
ganized effort will be made to re-
gain possession Of the property.
The difficulties originated almost
six months ago, when Beers Bros,
of New York City, failed to meet
their mining obligations. The
wages of the miners were in ar
rears and an attachment was
made against the property to Sc
cure debt, Monning & Bailey, an
ore buying concern of this city and
Denver, who held a claim against
Beers Bros, paid off the attach
ment and took charge of the mine
and have since been operating it.
In the last month big strike OF
al w 40 IO was
by the friends of Beers Bros. that
Monnipg & Bailey long ago paid
off its Indebtedness. Last week.
Beers Bros. offered to pay that firm
any balance due then. At first this
seemed agreeable and the Beers
people were given possession Of the
property. but Monday night Mon
ming & Bailey took forcible posses
sion, threatening any one who at
tempted to eject them from 1t. No
legal action has been taken as yet
and neither side seem to favor
such action as they claim the law
would be too slow. The mine is
one of the best in this country.
The average value of the ore is
now $50 per ton.

If l SHOULD DIE.

If l should die to night,
Would anybody care?
Would tear be shed for me,
When they saw me on my bier
Would my mother come and look at me,
Would my father bow his head,
Would my sweetheart shed tear for me,
When they told her | was dead
Would my sister oft remember
How in happy days gone by
We have romped and played together,
And together laughed and cred2
Would the companions of my childhood
Look mournful and sad,
Would they express their sorrow
When they heard that was dead
Would the people that I've known
In the happy, happy past,
Say something kind about me
When they saw me laid at rest?
When the spring. time comes,
And the gentle month Of May
When the flowers bloom again,
Would they place them on my grave
Would my sweetheart ever come and looh
Where am laid at rest
Would she sympatbize with mother
And would mother caress my pct
These questions cannot answer,
Nor can they be foretold,
For who cares about the body,
If it is well with the soul
