4 thirtecn-year-old boy has Just en-
tered a military training school-not
far from New York-who has taken
part in more actual fighting and has
seen moro real war than many Of his
instructors. He Is Crcscencio dc Varo-
ma. and he holds sergcants commits
sion In the pairiot Cuban army, OF
which he is probably the youngest SOL
der.
Little Varona, or Varonita, MS he is
called. In the Cuban army. Is son
OF Victor T. de Nacona and a nephew
OF Enrique dc Narona, well knOwn
philosophical teacher and the editor OF
Cuban paper published IN New York.
He was born In Cnmaguey. Cuba, and
ran away from home to join General
Gomez In his famous raid across the
island. He was hardly big enough TO
handle a nachctc In hard 90 hand
combat. but ne was made an ensign
bearer and was In several engagements
under Jose MGceo. Twice he crossed
Weylcr's terrible tr5cha and was
wounded at IEunra, where Il iHansur
rifle bullet pierced his left hand and
broke the pole OF the ensign he carried.
For his bravery at this engagement.

Gomez and was sent 10 join the guard
sustained by the provisional govern
IDcnt In its innpprOachahlc mountain
fastncss. Under General Rab! he took
part In six battles, and on October S, at
the battle Of CaScarros, he behaved with
such signal bravery that he won the
attention and praise Of President Chs
neros. who NJ once proposed him for
promotion to the rank of sergeant.
General Gomez. who decided that the
boy was possessed OF an unusual
amount OF military genius, determined
that he should have 4 chance 10 cult
waite his talent for the art of war. and
50 Il was arranged that the boy should
come 10 the United States and enter n
military school. whore he could have
thorough training. So young Narona
was sent of with a lot Of wounded Gu
ban sailors In an open boat. They were
landed at Nassau, and from there he
made his way 10 New York. When H.
goes back to resume his command. he
will have the advantage Of knowing
more about military tactics and he
VII! be able 20 do some real service foS
his country.

always allowed 1t 10 run at large about
his place on the south side. II has a
f0ndncsS Tor flowers and little flee
dog has been delegated to prevent such
depredatl0nS, Last night about 10
o'clock the little dog made y dash at the
buck and Fred Carr came inut TO back
up his dog in driving the D.cr from the
flower beds The deer. however, re-
vcrscd the game and soon had Fred In
retreat.
Tho colonel then came out in n Elrb
that wasn't exactly suited 10 the tenn
pcrnture ut that hour last night: but he
found himself at once In a scrimmaEc
warm enough to keep him comfortable.
Fred was dodEinE behind trees and every
t!mc the bucks horns struck the tree the
bark would i,y and Fred made Tor an
other closer TO the house. Col. Bob
started IN the fray az this point, while
Fred ran for gun. Bob wasn't active
enough 20 outrun the deer and now
found himself face 20 face with an In
furiated buck that stood on his hind legs
and sluggCd NJ him like a prize fighter.
Bob jumped 10 one side and caught him
around the body and down they went
They were near the edge Of the hill and
in the struggle they both rolled down
until they struck thc fence ut the bot
tom Of tho hill.
The buck again made at him The COL
Oucl jumped behind 4 tree and whipped
him across the face and called far Che
dogs. "Oh, my, how / did whistle for

telling II crowd nj the hotel this morning
OF his adventure.
Presently the dogs came to his rescue
and The colonel got to the house. lie
spent the rest of the night In rubbing
himself with arn!cu and swearing that
he would shoot that deer, but Mrs. Carr
