But they could not send my telegram.
Every body was watched by the police.
So when Dr. Porter came to see me
after l was allowed to communicate
with my friends, | gave him the tele-
gram that finally came. When Broth
er Porter went to the telegraph office
with the message, however, they would
not send it, because the operator said
the Cincinnati or the Iowa would be
down there in no time to fight 1t out
for me, DR.. Porter was followed, the
police trying to get the telegram. He
happened to come up with Brother
Bueno, the missionary at San Miguel,
who was fleeing IN MS carriage from
the country, on account OF persecu-
ton, and gave him the message to be
sent from Key West. When the Mas
cote was getting ready TO sail Broth
er Porter went down to the dock, and
the police thinking that he was trying
to get the message on board arrested
him. But Brother Bueno had it safely
on its way. Brother Porter laughed
at the police and told them so, and in
two hours 7 was released and told to
leave the island by the next steamer

would have to carry me ABOARD If they
wanted to make me 60.
''It took four days to get resdy, and
all the time l was followed and watch
ed by by the police"
DR.. Diaz said that persecution be-
cause he was an American citizen WAS
the cause Of his true arrest. A few
weeks before some one placed two dy-
Mantle bombs in the lobby of his
church. They exploded during SER
vices and shattered the glass IN the
building, but no one was hurt.
During his confinement he was sum
moned before military court, but re-
fused to answer the questions put to
him because he declared that ne was
entitled to cival trial. He had com
with the consul general

apprized of the condition, the military
court had to dismiss him. From the
written questions put to him the court

Died in the Ring.

SAVANNAH, May 5.-Andy Willy, a
Young Scotchman, died sudddeutly
touight as the result Of a four-round
scrap with gloves with Paul Rapport
of Montgomery, Ala. The two men
were entertaining a few friends at the
Pastime Athletic Club, an institution
devoted to scrapplng matches, and IN
the middle of the tnlrd round, Willy
retired from the ring and laid on a
bench. He was stripped and rubbed,
but died before medical aid could
reach him. In the opinion Of those
who saw the scrap there was no blow
severe enough to have produced death.
The coroner will investigate the mat
ter.

means 10 have South Carolina repre-
sented at Chicago. In getting up an
exhibit for Atlanta, great trouble was
had IN getting the delegates from the
several counties to attend the meetings,
bat he was glad to say such was not
the case with this.
1t would be best to have the getting
up of an exhibit in the hands of an
experienced man, such as Mr.. Roche.
The Atlanta exhibit was on hand and
would serve as nucleus for the one
at Chicago.
The meeting was TO decide or some
plan to raise the $40, 200 needed for the
purpose. The assessment plan had
been proposed, but 1t was left to the
meeting to decide on such plan as it
thought best.
