mits Ill : Failure.

mits Ill : Failure.
New York, March ga World spec
ial from Madrid says: Marshal Cam
pos was seen by the World correspond
ent. The general, who had just come
out of bed, was looking remarkably
well. He began the conversation him
self, asking in a frank, soldierly, ener-
getic manner that your correspondent
give prominence to these points:
First" he said, II deny that there
is any foundation for the stories Of cru
elites in General Weyler's past histo-
~. He was simply a field officer in
the last Cuban insurrection, carrying
out, like all others, the orders of his
chief, Count Balmaceda, who had or
dered reprisals because the insurgents
had committed atrocities. People
ought not TO be alarmed at fine terri
flying proclamations if Weyler, threat
ening penalties that are practically i'm
possible of execution, and only intend
ed to quell the spirit OF disaffection-
So far nobody has been shot or execu-
ted"
Second, / have no grudge against
the Canovas government. 1t was per-
fectly justified in recalling me after the
failure OF my military and political
plans, and / admit that / was no longer
in touch with the colonial conserva-
tives.
Third, l believe the war is likely to
last couple of years, but despite the
staying powers of the insurgents, il is
impossible for them to succeed alone,
even if they do wear out the armies
and resources of Spain by desultory,
guerrilla warfare. favored by the eli
matte conditions of the country.
Fourth, as regards the colonial re-
forms which, before / went TO Cuba,
thought ought to be carried out, be-
cause it is polite TO fulfill promises,
and which at first 1 believed might
have helped to stop the development of
the insurrection, together with my own
conciliatory policy. As / was only a
general in command of the forces. l
could not take the initiative If 1 re-
ceived no instructions from the home
government. Soon, moreover circum-
stances led me TO see that even the col
onial parties had some autonomists in
Cuba themselves doubted the exepdien-
cy of reforms. think IL is now ra tn
er late to attempt such palliatives and
the sword must first crush the insur-
rection before home rule is possible.
Fifth, Cubans attach much import
ance 10 administrative economical re-
forms, which are easier to propose than
to accomplish.

THEIR TURN TO RUN.
The Experience of Two Bear Hunters In
the Mountains of Oregon


the Mountains of Oregon
A bear hunt which terminated In
amannerat once disappointingand sur
prising. is described by the Portland
Oregoniau. 1t occurred in the noun
tains of Oregon, whittier two gentle
men had betaken themselves for q
vacation trip.
Several days were spent in trout fish
ing. Then one of the men expressed
n strong desire for days shooting
for larger game. They set out the
next morning bright and early, and
after hours OF fruitless tramping were
about returning TO camp, when sud
denly they saw straight before them a
brown bear sitting on his launches,
under a BURBERRY bush, and gorging
himself with the berries.
Both hunters fred, and the bear, with
an ugly growl, disappeared. The men
FASTENED after him. but We're unable TO
overtske him. For half an hour of
more they followed the trail. Then all
at once they came TO a clearing. In
the clearing was a cabin, and on the
porch of the cabin sat the brown bear
with one OF his forelegs in sling!
The hunters were greatly taken
Rback, as may well be supposed, but
were still more surprised when they
Saw a man Fastening toward them with
O gun. They turned and ran, the man
after them. They got away in safety.
and learned afterward that the hear
was a family pet, the owner of which
was naturally angry at finding it ILL.,
