FLORIDA AND CUBA.

near Cuba, and having among its
inhabitants so many Cubans, is
pardonably hopeful of Cuban in
dependence. This paper shares
that hope. 1t does so not merely
from our close relationship and
proximity to the Antilles, but from
the belief that Cuba is entitled to
her freedom. But, with all this
sympathy for our little neighbor,
we would counsel wisdom on the
part of those of our citizens who
are her well-wishers. It is one
thing TO wish we'll to the enter
prise, and another to assume the
aggressive against the government
of Spain, with the feeling that,
whatever risk to our bodies we
run, we may appeal with certainty
to our government to protect US
from harm. Let us not be misled
on this point. The experience of
the Competitor prisoners shows
the danger of such an attitude.
Whatever high-spirited newspaper
articles or political speeches may
contain 10 the contrary, the man
who lifts his hand against Spain
will be accredited as the enemy of
that power And, however gladly
Cuban sTnpathizers would have
the United States declare war
against Spain, such declaration
would be most serious to this Coun-
try. War is 4 calamity. 1t is at
basis un-Christlike. The mission
of the Founder of our religion was
TO bring peace upon the earth. He
rebukcd the use of the sword.
Conse quently, it behoovcs good
Christians to feel their own pulse
and determine whether they are
not getting somewhat excited on
this matter. For instance, the adj
vice of a Chicago paper to send a
fleet 70 Cuba, "sink every Spanish
vessel, blow up Moro Castle and
take possession of Havana" shows
that some people have become
highly feverish. OF course the
United States could do this No
one doubts that. Yet there are
other considerations to be weighed.
Aside from the Christian ground
taken above, there are other cues
tons that show the folly OF such
a course. To learn these best, we
might cross the Atlantic and see
ourselves IS others sec Us. Il is 4
fact that - European nation would
Justify such a course. Even IS il

throw off his vestments to save himself.
Just before the fire became the fercest
Fireman Doherty ran into the building
with q line of hose, intending to work
from the inside. He was followed by Fire
man Lennig, and together they worked
the hose. Chief Whippey, seeing their
danger ordered them outside, but they
would not heed his command. A moment
later one end of the building fell in, bury

the flames burned themselves out the men
were found burned to crisp. They were
almost unrecogniznble.
The church was completely destroyed,
but the valuable vestments of the church

before the fire became too intense. The
loss will amount to $4,000
