CUBAN SPY SYSTEM MORE THOROUGH THAN THE NIHILBT

Marin is more iron than blood. Their
.snt an ounce of callOus in Campos,
and he lis ready to kill himself with
sorrow to-day.
"Campos didn't want this rebellion.
He is at heart a rebel. He does not
want Spain to win. But he was sent
out by the mother country, as her most
trusted lieutenant, and he had 10 fight
for Spain until he was relieved.
"Take my word for it, if Campos had
not found a way to assist Cuba before
long he would have committed suicide.
about Marin? Marin will be dyna-
mited. He is afraid Of it. Spain IS
afraid of it. He is so unpopular Spain
will have to send over somebody else.
Marin is as fierce as a wolf. There are
too many rebels in Havana to allow
him to live. When you speak here you
must speak softly for fear of the Gu
bans. More than half Havana is for the
rebels.
"The rebel cause means to the people
of Havana a trading with all countries
and no tribute 10 Spain. 1t means a
freedom with right TO elect their own
governors. II means a broad, free,
wealthy life Cuba is SPANS richest
possession. Why not make money for
themselves as well as for Alphonso?
That is what even the loyal Hayanese
are thinking. Do l believe this? I
know it,"
thought Of this next morning when
I drove through the city of Havana. It
is like a town in which the Chief Magis-
trate is dead. There is no heart in any
thing. People must attend to their bus
mess, but there is a funeral note
through it all. Loyalty to Spain and
Marin are on the surface, but not under
meath.
The annual amusement event is the
arrival Of a certain opera company that
remains upon the Island of Cuba for a
long time. The date in Havana is a
long one. All the ladies Of Havana at
tend the opera, and there is a succession
of theatrical performances, concerts.
grand opera and other interesting
events in the world of amusement
The date Of the arrival Of this opera

arrived, escaping the rebels in the clev-
crest way, arrived with their costumes,

Havana to-day is like an arsenal.

Some idea of the value OF THESE IaIcy
docs can be had from the fact that MIS-.
Charles r.. Hone. a celebrated woman
exhibitor. values her schipperkeS at
$500 apiece the day they are born, ana
adds another hundred for every month
off their age until they are full grown.
"Schipperkes" are dogs born without
tails solid black with short hair. The
most valuable ones have name ike
lion. But the name is very scarce.
Mrs Frederick Gerhard divides her
attention between prize bull dogs ana
a certain bob-tail sheep dog OF which
she is very fond. and is big and heavy.
He has mo- tail worthy the name, ana mas
large. dropping ears.
There is to be a new class this year
for dogs that have not had either TAM
0r ears cropped. The Kennel Club mas
decided that dogs are prettier in their
natural state than cropped, and TO en-
courage the uncrOpped dogs there are
prizes offered for them.
COSTLY FOR EXHIBITORS.
Nine thousand dollars is given this
wear i'm prizes. but this is no bait at all
for exhibition. as there are so many
classes tha- few dogs could win more
than the cost Of transportation and the
worry OF looking after them. The prize
money is merely a qualification.
People who have dogs at the Dog
Show may go TO the show and stand all
day by their cages if they elect. At
noon and again at evening they can
parade them around the room by a chain
for exercise but at II o'clock at night
they must kiss them goodbye and so
home until next morning.
