TALES OF THE TIMES.
Columbia to Cuba-A Poem That Is Apro-
pos just Now.

pos just Now.
Francis s. Saltus has been dead over
six years now and still there Is withheld
from bis name the fame that no earned. 1t
is unlikely that II will ever be accorded
him now-that niche in tho temple OF
fame that Is tho right of genius such as
his 1t Is possible that this-the most
brilliant and versatile poet IL not tho most
profound thinker among American men
OF letters-would not bo recalled now but
for the fact that his father is about to take
a step that will give Francis Saltus lasting
fame, among literary men ut least.
In the univorsality of his genius Saltus
oversteppCd all tho usual limitations OF
language and sang In 2S different tongues.
Among his papers his father found
poems In 81 languages, and this mar
velous proof of the poets versatility Is
TO DO used TO perpetuate his fame. Mr..
Saltus, the father, man of wealth, has
had these poems printed In magnificent
style, and only dozen copies will be mado
from the plates These will be presented
TO the leading libraries of tho world. The
cost of tho work, IL Is said, will exceed
sac, 600
This announcement suggesting the
namo and work OF Saltus brings with IL a
reminder that the poet was an ardent Gu
ban liberator. He was In touch with the
leaders of the rebellious Cubans In the
early seventies, when he was barely %
yenrs of age, and in 1873 he wrote I'm
Spanish n poem, Columbia to Cuba, |"
for tho Lono Star Cuba Junta association.
Ii was set TO music, and Is now very pop
ular. From copy OF Saltus' works In
tho 50. Paul library tho poem Is repro.
duced:

Thou hast curbcd meath tho wrath unabated

Thou hast given thy charm and thy beauty;
Thou hast given thy body az dover;
Thou hast languishcd care stricken in duty
To rotten and desoiGte power;
Thou hast swooned in their clutch and their
booty,
Though helpless, they strive TO dehower.
Tho rcd banner of Spain Is now flying;
Her legians are thirgtins for lives.
We still hear the wan patriots crying
To martyrs who groan IN their gives.
We are deafened by shriclSs from the dying;
We are blind by ths glitter Of knives.
But enough OF such tears and lamcnting.
For tho hour sounds 10 stihe all sighs;
To o'Cryrhelm the proud foes unrelenting,
To combat, 10 revolt, to dsspiSo;
Thou hast fingered enough in repenting,
'Tis the time TO awaken, TO arise
All tits many o year we have missed thee,
Flir Cuba. anu seen theo downtrod
We have stopped not TO comfort, not kisst
thce
We have-purncd thy long suffering sod.
But we como now to aid and assist thee,
Aye. for liberty. honor and God.
To thy land Of despair and commotion,
To thy homes of distress Gnd alarm,
We will hasten with ardent emotion,
We will save thee from shame and from
harm:
Oer tEc nlenty cAponScs OF OcCsln
We will stretch our omnipotent arm.
They have trod on thee, Cuba, and spsttered
Thy garments with miro and with gore;
They have driven thee, ragged and tattcrcd
To bend down thy proud brow and implore
Yet they fail, for tho strisken and shattered
Thou shalt live aud shalt prosper once more.
Hear the rago Of tho mass and the millions.
As We chafe and we wait In discords.
1. ...s -. .os.l
With the cannon and clashing of swords.
We arc fain 70 unfuil our pavilions
Ger the carron of b-cyga-ts and lords.
We are tired Of the Spaniartls' hot curses,
We are tired OF their Iurderous threats;
Their old roster Of insults SIN nurses
Great fevers OF hates and rngrets.
Let Us pay them with shrouds and with
hcarses,
Let the red blood then cancel our debts.
Thro' our cannon smoke shall ye tho splendid,
Bright white Of our standard acclaim,
And tho blue Of that flag will be blended
With thy heavens, oh, Cuba, tho same.
While the wrath Of it's crimson descended
Shall CLEAN through the blood and the fame.
But enough Of such talk and presuming
'Tis no time to delay or ihquiro
'Tis tho hour the dark garb for assuming,
OF a vengeance whose blows will prove dire.
We must answer thee Spain, with the booming
OF cannon and flashing of fire.
So succumb not to tears and despairing,
Oh, Cuba, down trampled, deiied,
We will choke the wild beasts that are tearing
Tho flesh from thy blood streaming side.
Swoon not yot, for our armies are bearing
That help which for years we denied.

To thy homes on the muinuring sea,

And proclaim thee great. honorcd and free.
