First they engage the advance guard of the
royalists, firing from ambush and producing
panic and death. If crowded too much that
party will fall back, while a new one of
fifty will make flank attack, and SO they
simply harass the Spaniards and expose
themselves as little as possible. By this
method 80 or 300 Cubans will hold a whole
column in check. The Cubans are as crafty

They Wanted His Tomb.

The late Sir Richard Burton was explor.
ing an unknown corner of Afghanistan
once, and had adopted the disguise of q
Mohammedan fakir.
He played his part so well in one village
that the inhabitants formed q very high
idea of his sanctity. Naturally he was
pluming himself on his success, when the
elders came privately to him one night
and begged him to go away at once.
DO not the people like me-" asked
Burton, in great surprise.
Indeed they do, was the reply. "They
were considering whether it would not be
a good thing to possess your tomb, they
are so enchanted with your holiness"
