CUBA'S BOY SOLDIER.
He Is Eleven Years Old and Four
Feet IN Height
Little Ramon Stole Mauser Rife from a
Spanish Soldier and Then Tramped
Long Distance to Join the
Patriot Army.

The smallest soldier in the Cuban
army is Ramon Fonseca, son of the
fighting Col. Fonseca, whose guerrillas
worry the Spaniards about the city of
Puerto Principe. He is IL years old,
and four feet in height, and weighs
about IS pounds. He has been to school
for a part of the time, but he knows
more about slIirmish lines than he does
about arithmetic. He is as familiar
American boy is with the chirp of the
cricket, and he can look into the flash
of a Spanish volley without winking.
Little Ramon's father, says the New
York Journal, forbade him to go to the
front, so he lived on a farm just out
side of Puerto Principe with an uncle
who is supposed to be loyal to the Span
iards. One afternoon few months
ago a Spaniard column passed by the
Fanseca estate, and hungry soldier
slipped from the ranks to forage on his
own account. The soldier spied a fine
pullet, and laid down his Mauser rifle
in the tall grass so as to give chase with
greater swiftness.
Little Ramon, who was hid in the
house near, saw the act, and made his
plan with the promptness of veteran.
He stole from the shed and hid the rifle
under some old straw in one of the
stores, and then got out of the way as
fast as his stocky little legs would car
ry him.
The soldier danced and swore, and
called on the saints until the rear
guard was nearly out of sight; then he
remembered that Cuba was not a safe
place for soldiers straying from the
columns, so he captured a pig to make
peace with the sergeant and hurried
after the column. Ramon said nothing
to his parent, but after supper, when it
was dark, he shouldered the rifle and
started out to find his fathers troop
in the forests that cover the foothills of
the Sierra Najazes.
1t was a long tramp through the hot
test part of Camaguey, laid waste by
fire and sword, terribly still, and safe

cUBA's YOUNGEST PATRIOT.

only for the numbers of party. When
he struck from the main roads to the
woods the darkness became so intense
that he lost his way. Boughs of trees
struck him in the face, and clinging
brambles tripped him and tore his flesh,
but he struggled on manfully, still lug
ging the ten-pound rife.
Che moon rose, and, tired out, he sank
under a tree, where he spent the rest of
the night. At dawn he got up stiff and
hungry, but limped along pluckily, still
carrying his precious rife. The morn
ing wore on and little Ramon still con-
tinued his search through the woods.
At noon he heard the stamping of I'M
shod horses hoofs and saw mounted
men approaching an opening in the for
est. He didn't know whether they were
insurgents or the Spanish guerillas, so
he hid in a thicket of wild pineapples,
and as they came by he gave them the
Cuban challenge: "HaltO, quien val"
Then he saw the red and blue cockade,
and knew that he was among friends.
1t was a party of scouts of Col. Fon-
seca's force, who had started out from
camp that morning. Little Ramon was
taken on horse before one of them,
and brought back to camp, rifle and all,
where he at once became hero. After
his pluckiness Col. Fonseca had not the
heart to send him home, so he gave him
a horse, a machete and pouch of am.
munition and enrolled him as a regular
soldier of the troop.
At the battle of Saratoga, where the
insurgents, under Gomez, for three
days stormed the Spanish camp, little
Ramon Fonseca rode each day under
heavy gun fire in the foremost line of
the attacking party. He rode amid the
smoke and shot as carelessly as the SOL
| diers. Men were wounded and fell
dead about him. but to him it was pas
time to be a real soldier. He has been
In other skirmishes since, and his com.
rades, although they do not let him dc
guard duty, say that he is about as good
a fighting man as any of them.
He is a bright-eyed, cheerful little
fellow, and, although he is not up to the
weight of lis rife, he carries it still, and
shows it with great pride. Gen. Gomez
has promised to make him an officer
when the war is over.
The boy patriots in the American
army have always been feature, chief
ly as drummer boys, and at times they
have distinguished themselves for
bravery in the thick of the fight. More
than one veteran of the civil war is to-
day drawing pension for services
when mere lad in his teens.

WON'T COME OFF
WATSON DECLARES HIM
SELF.
A Signed Statement Exactly Declaring His
Position Made Public-The Resignation
OF ME-. sewall Suggested in the Interest
Of Harmony and silver.

New YORK, July 2s.-The World
this morning published the following
dispatch from Thomson, Ga, signed
Thomas E. Watson:
ITO the questions asked me I reply
as follows:
"0D l will run the race to the end.
w l will make the fight, even if
Mr.. Scwall does not withdraw.
"(s) Ny opinion Of the N%fty-second
Congress, which was arraigned in my
book, has undergone no changes.
"(4) l am not a political trader. and
VIII not resign in Sewall's favor, even
II offered q cabinet position.
Having answered your questions.
please allow me to state briefly nv
reasons for the replies to questions ]
and 2.
II allowed the use of my name to
save my party from extinction. In
my opinion the continued existence of
the Peoples party is Indispensable to
the success OF free silver. For me to
withdraw would be for me to sign the
aeath warrant OF my party. Ours is
the party of free silver, and we main
tanned that principle while the Dem
ocratlc party in 1892 and 1893 was
making war upon it. We do not think
our party should now close up and
quit business simply because the
Democrats have partially Duplicated
our ~signboard. II the Democrats are
50 unreasonable as to refuse us Popu-
lists OF the South any recognition at
all, that fact should show that the
real purpose of the apparen. adoption
OF our principles is to kill our party
and not to enact those principles into
law.
a"1f the Democrats are sincere thew
Wall not try to put upon US such terms
mat every man in our party in the
South will feel insulted and humili.
ated. 1t Mr.. Bryan did not want our
support, Senator Jones had no bust
ness at St Louis at all. If BRYAN
ooes want our support, he ought to be
willing to adopt the policy which win
most certainly assure him that sup
port and that policy is to accept as a
running mate a Southern Pupulist
named by the unanimous voice Of the
Populist national convention. Our
party has gone to the extreme limit
OF generosity in the effort to procure
a union Of the silver forces. We did
not claim first place on the national
ticket We are content with the sec
ond"
