further details of the attempted rising
among the political prisoners confined on
the Isle of Pines.
From the details given it is almost GER
tain that the plot would have been suo-
oessfully carried out had it not been I'M
intention ally betrayed by woman
through her anxiety for its accomplish
ment. Since the outbreak of the insur-
rection great number of persons who
were known to be supporters of the
rebels or who were suspected of second
Ing and aiding them have been trans
ported to the Isle of Pines, which lies
some fifty miles off the southwestern
part of Cuba. Among the prisoners are
number of women, who, it is learne d,
took an active part in the conspiracy
The prisoners are nominally confined in
the inland cities of Nueva Corona and
Santa Fe, the capital, but they are
allowed more or less liberty, according to
the nature of their offences, strong mill
tary guards being, employed to prevent
the prisoners leaving the cities and at
| tempting TO reach the shores of the island
| Ii appears that some of the more
desperate of the Cubans of Santa Fe, con-
cludedsthat if all the prisoners combined
they would be able to overcome their
guards and make their way to liberty
| Their plan was to seize the arms of the
troops while the latter were at church
| and then make their way to the coast,
| where they intended to capture a gun
boat that is employed in doing patio
| duty around the island, another detail of
the plan WAS to seize Col. Berrlse, the
governor of the island, while he was 60
| ing to mass and hang him.
Some of the Cubans apparently hung
back from this part of the plan, and it
WAS while they were being urged on by
one of che women oonspirators that ths
| plot was betrayed. Some soldiers who
were passing the place where the Oubans
were gathered heard the woman. whose
excitement had got the better OF her
discretion, vehemenly exhorting the men
to capture the governor and kill him.
The soldiers Immediately informed the
governor of the plot and the promptest
measures were taken to Illustrate and
punish the conspirators.
The woman who had been heard urging
the Cuban to hang the governor ana
twenty men who are suspected of being
the ringleaders Of the proposed revolt
were at once placed in irons They will
be sent to Havana for trial by a court
martial.
The others who are implicated in the
plot learned of It's betrayal and fled to
the far interior of the island, where In a
mountainous country and broad swamps
the authorities will have a hard time to
catch them unless they are forced to SUBJ
NIT by prospects Of starvation.
A steamer with two hundred troops to
reinforce those already on the island has
sailed from Batabano.

PATHS OLD AGENT.
Giovanni Franchi's Shire wdness in Her
Service and His Death in Poverty.

Giovanni Franchi, who was for many
years PATHS manager and confidential
secretary, died several weeks ago at his
home in Milan. He was well known in
this country, having accompanied Patti
on many of her tours here. He was a
shrewd old Italian, who knew how to
look out for the prirna donna's interest
and he did this SO adroitly that he loft
behind him plumber of anecdotes.
Franchi WAS in Philadelphia with Pat
ii during tour in this country with
Col j. II. Mapleson, who is now about
to return here with an opera company.
She always insisted on that CLAUSE In her
| in advance the S., 600 she got for every
appearance in opera. IL was sometimes
difficult for the managers to have this
| sum available, but when Ii was not Patti
| refused TO sing. On this particular night,
| some ten years ago, she was announced
to sing in ''La Trava" in Philadelphia
Only "a, 900 could be raised, and she had
got that amount. Either the large pro-
portion Of the amount due her or the
| Oolonel,s evident desire TO do the best
| he could, warmed her into such q COM
placent mood that she consented to come
to the theatre without the final 81, 900 and
dress for her role. She put on every.
| thing but her slippers. She refused,
| moreover, to put on those necessary ar
tiolos until the rest OF her money was
| forthcoming. By dint of scuTrying
around and taking the box Office receipts
around to her as fast as they came in,
$500 mora was secured. When she got it,
Patti put on one slipper. More efrenu-
GUS effort produced another $500, and as
that went Into the pPima donna's posses
sion the other foot went into her slipper.
After the $500 had been collected Franchi
reported to the manager.
YOU'RE Q wonderful man, Mapleson,"
he said. Mime Patti has put on one
slipper. She would not have done it for
any other man."
Patti outgrew Franohi, and the old
man, who was so when he died, returned
to Milan to live. He made an exception
TO the saying that man who lives in the
neighborhood of money is likely to get
rich. After his death not a cent was
found in his house. All that he owned
was small piece of property in Brescia,
where he was born. Bor eighteen years
he was associated with Patti, and to his
judicious management is due much of
her wealth acquired during that period.
He WAS the oldest Of Italian impress
sarios.
