securely as possible, and waiting, gazed
not at the burning stars above, but far
over the sea to the Pickering CLEAN
where the unknown ship hung out her
signal lamp, or back to the cliff where
Eleanor tended faithfully the rosy ben
fire.
Eleanor was lonely and intensely ag-
itated, but no thrill of fear mingled
with her sensations. Vigilantly and
steadily she kept the blaze bright
throughout the night, now straining her
ear to catch fancied halo, now turn
ing sadly in the direction of that new

sweeping back the cloud of damp
curls that fell heavily over her
face as she ran, she flew down
the path to the little cove where
the boat was kept, which was the
natural inlet, since no other was free
from surf or convenient for landing. A
strange boat, packed closely with men
was aiming steadily for the shore. Her
eager eye ran rapidly over the company
to find Walter and his father. They
were there in the stern, in earnest con-
versation with tall officer in the lieu
tenants uniform Of Her Majesty's serv-
ice. Eleanor stood on shore, half shy
half dignifed, the early morning light
playing softly around her graceful fig
ure, the light breeze dallying with her
robe of native cloth, and stirring gold
en- sunshine of their own among her
curls.

He turned his gay blue eye to Walter
merrily, but frown was on the latter's
forehead, and his looks were bent
gloomily upon the water, and it was his
father who answered quietly, just lit
tie reprovingly:
'We have endeavored to do our duty
faithfully toward one so gentle and
good, especially never to forget amidst
the unavoidable familiarity of circum-
stances the probable high birth and ele-
waited position Of the young lady. The
same respect and delicacy, l trust, will
be observed by all others, until she is
safely under the protection of her own
relatives"
The young officer colored little, and
replied frankly:

turning his eyes away from the shore.

CUBAN VICTORY.
The Insurgents Beat the Troops and
Capture a Town.

HAVANA, Aug 1.-THE news that
General Roloff had landed an expedi-
ton at Las Peditas, province of Moron,
and that Garcia had captured the city
Of Holguin, is true. The Spanish SOL
diers who were escorting a convoy from
Canto to Caymas, Manzanillo, were
surrounded by a superior force of in
surgents, who attacked the Spaniards
from all sides. The troops sustained
heavy losses, much larger than the Off
cial figures, which are given as two Off
GERS and twenty-one privates killed.
The bodies of the dead were left on the
field. the troops being compelled to hur-
riedly retreat to escape annihilation.
The rebels are said to have lost thirty
six killed, including Chongo Rivero and
other leaders.
A body of rebels attacked the town of
Guira de Melena, in the southern part
of the province Of Havana, and cap
tured it, despite a desperate resistance
on the part of the Spanish garrison. A
number of stores and dwellings were
looted and then burned, after which the
rebels retired. No mention is made OF
the losses on either side in the official
report, which credits the Spaniards
with repulsing the rebels, although no
explanation is given for the fact that
the rebels looted stores and burned
dwellings,.

WINTHROP'S DEFENSE.
He Claims The Grand Jurors Are His

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 17.-Oliver
Winfield Winthrop was brought into
Judge Wallace's court at 10 o'clock this
morning to plead to the Indictment
charging him with robbery and assault
to commit murder.
That ceremony was postponed, how
ever, as the prisoners attorneys, Frank
Bell and Outflow, opened the fight by
filing a motion to set aside the indict-
ments. The motion was based upon all
the grounds permitted by the statute
and was supplemented by the interpo-
sition of a formal challenge to the
Grand Jury. The motion and the chal-
lenge were supported by affidavits, ver-
flied by Winthrop.
The defense will now be conducted
by Attorneys Bell and Outflow, as

substantially that Gown, who was Wis
iting in Cuba as the correspondent of
a Key West paper, was an American
citizen and was foully murdered for no
other offense than that of being an
American citizen. 1t was resolved to
communicate the facts to Secretary OIL
ney and urge immediate investigation
into the matter. In accordance with
this the following dispatch was sent to
Secretary Olney:
"a mass meeting of 1900 American
citizens beg leave to call attention to
the butchering in Cuba of Charles Go
Vim, an American citizen plying the

recited in the New York Herald of
Sunday. AS Americans we urge an i'm

ton, such as the atrocity demands.

and our national honor insulted and
civilization Mortified by this crime"
One of the speakers, of whom there
were several, introduced three flags
an American, a Cuban and a Spanish
into the crowd. The first two were
caught up by the now thoroughly
aroused people and held aloft, while
