A THOUSAND KILLED.
Accounts Of a Recent Battle in
Cuba.
INSURGENTS WIN A VICTORY.

Dynamite Guns Used with Terrible Eff
feet, the Shells Bursting Among the
Spaniards and Striking Them Down by
the scores-Men Literally Being Blown
to Pieces-Other Cuban Dispatches.
New ORLEANS, Oct. 3.-The Times
Democrats Key West special says: Ad.
veces received here from Havana state
that Antonio Maceo in recent attack
on the trocha inflicted terrible losses on
the Spaniards, more than 1000 being
killed and wounded. The attack was
made at night and was carefully
planned. The fighting was general all
along the line, but was fiercest near
Artemisa, where Antonio Maceo led a
picked force Of insurgents against the
Spanish column commanded by General
Aralas
The Spaniards were taken completely
by surprise. They were aroused from
sleep to find hail of insurgent bullets
falling upon them. General Aralas and
his staff half clad, rushed from their
headquarters and tried to rally the
Spanish troops who were panic-stricken
by the insurgents attack. 1t was half
an hour before even semblance of or
der could be restored to the Spanish
column, and during that time the troops
remained huddled together, an easy
mark for the bullets of the Cubans.
1t was during this period of the panic
that SO many of the Spanish troops were
killed. The insurgents had several
dynamite guns and these were used
with terrible effect, the shells bursting
among the Spaniards and striking them
down by the scores. The wounds made
by the dynamite shells were frightful
in many instances, men being literally
blown to pieces. 1t is said many Span
ish officers were killed and that General
Aralas himself was slightly injured.
After General Aralas succeeded in
rallying his men he made a retreat and
the Spaniards fell back four miles or
more leaving the trocha in the hands
of the insurgents. Antonio Maceo did
not pursue the Spaniards but held pos
session of Artemisa until morning when
he retreated to his stronghold.

THAT CONFOUNDED PARROT.
1t Was = Revengeful Creature and Broke
Up 2 Marriage Engnsement.


One of the brightest and most at
ractive young women In Buffalo is the
owner OF an unusually precocious par
rot; incidentally she thought a great
deal OF young farmer of the neighbor-
hood, so much in fact that they were
betrothed. But this young farmer has
always hated parrots, and that has been
the one sore spot between him and his
promised wife. He has especially hated
the parrot in question, and has repeat
edly warned the young lady that the
thlng was not so green as it looked, and
that 1T would surely cause trouble be-
tween them. We can easily believe
that the bird, being beloved by his mis-
tress, was at hand during these little
talks, and it as easy to believe that
no well-ordered, intelligent parrot
would put up long with such sighting
remarks as the young farmer was in
the habit of making. If memory serves
Alright, the bird did once rebuke his
mistress sweetheart, but very mildly,
simply calling him sassy thing On
That occasion Polly was promptly pun
mead with a piece of whalebone and
covered his cage with paper for an en-
Tire day. This was added insult, but
nothing was to be done except wait
patiently for an opportunity to get even.
Inc opportunity soon came. A few
nights ago the young farmer entered
the house Of his life's light, and asked
t. IN,,t

would Frank try to make friends with
Polly? So Frank turned into the room
where Polly sat on his perch munching
cracker and grooming a jungle ditty.
Extracting q chocolate caramel from
his pocket Frank moved toward the
cage. There are tides in the affairs Of
men and likewise parrots, and this
bright If green pet realized that the
ncod Of his tide had come
Hellow, young hayseedr he shouted
There was a moment Of intense ST.
lence. Then the cage was struck to the
noor and the room was filled with
feathers and hair. A moment later
Poily's mistress entered the room.
What is the trouble, Frank"
some one has taught this parrot to
call me young hayseed," answered
her lover, flushed and angry, and l will
not stand It,"
Did you hurt poor Polly?" picking
up the manned creature.
i tried to kill the thing
The young woman vigorously up
braided her lover, and hurriedly slip
ping her engagement ring from her fin
ger and handing it back, said:
A man who loses his temper on such
slight provocation cannot be my com
pan1on for life. The engagement is
broken and you need not call again"

Society Ia Harvard to Give Cole K iate

Harvard university has adopted
new feature which seems TO us one of
the grandest and nobIest of works ever
attempted in college education, says an
exchange. They have there what is
known as the Prospect union, a name
chosen from the building in which they
first met The object Of the union is
the spreading Of a college education TO
the masses and TO those who toll during
the day. For the paItry sum of %
cents any labOrer can become a mem
Der of this union, and the generous
students meet with them and lecture
on some instructive and educational
subject is delivered. Here it is that the
industrious mechanics and wage-earn-
ers are taught the lessons of thrift, in
dustry and economy. their views and
general scope of society broadened, and
their moral instincts directed in paths
Of true citizenship and respectability,
until as we hear them testify as some
of their number here said: Il learned
more in my work there in the last two
years than | could have learned from a

noble work continue and godspeed are
our sentiments. Education is not 70

THE WORLDS DIAMONDS.
Something About the Vast Wealth Tied
Up In Gems.

There Is always something fascinat-
Ing about the subject of diamonds, and
rich and poor like to read about pre-
eious stones, says Yenowine's News. |;
is estimated that during the last TWEEN
ty-five years the American people have
paid duty on at least $3.50. 900 worth
or diamonds aid cther precious stones.
In 1893 alone they imported Sl5,2o5'-
563 worth, but In 1894 there was a
falling off owing to hard times, and
the total was only S4,S5j,9S5. This
does not include uncut diamonds, OF
which we imported more than $1,000
900 worth in 1892, 100000 worth in
1898 and $566,267 worth in 1894. Dur
ing the last twenty-four years we nave
imported S7,0S7 SIT worth of uncut dla-
monds In 1880 we imported only
1929 900 worth of uncut diamonds, and
in 1889 only $3.50, 900 worth. The large
increase of late has been due to the
fact that a number of American Jew
ers have opened diamond-cuttlnS es-
Establishments. There are now htteen
establishments in the United states
which employ from one TO twenty men.
There are 1000 manufacturers IN Eu-
rope and about 200 in the United
States who employ between 1000 ana
5000 persons as cutters and pollShers.
Perhaps $4,000 people are employed
In the diamond mines throughout the
world. We read that in past centur-
les 60 900 people were working III some
single Indian mines at one time. anu
perhaps that statement is not eXagger-
ated. since by the aid of modern ma
chinery one miner can now accomplish
as much as twenty who used the prim-
tive methods. The total value of all
the diamonds in the world undoubted-
ly exceeds $1,000, 100000. There are
perhaps 5000 dealers in diamonds IN
the world, who carry in their stock
stones worth perhaps $3.50, 900 600. The
remainder are in the hands of private
individuals. To compare present con
ditions with those Of the past, it is
instructive TO note the enormous in
crease in the production of diamonds,
and the important industrial changes
wrought thereby, which have resulted
from the discovery and working Of the
great South African mines. During
the last quarter century ten tons OF
diamonds, selling for more than $780,
100000 uncut and 5000, 600, 600 after
cutting, have been added to the
worlds wealth-an amount more than
twice as great as the value Of dia-
monds known to exist before.

Treatment of BIackheads.

To prevent blackheads one must
have good digestion, be scrupulously
clean and take plenty of exercise To
cure them once they have appeared is
a matter requiring time and patience.
The face must be cleansed and soft
ened with cold cream and the pores
must be opened by a face steaming.
When this cannot be taken at a beau
tifying establishment it may be taken
at home over basin Of boiling water,
with a Turkish towel encircling the
head and the basin. After the steam
ing the face should be gently pressed
TO force the blackhead out, but if it
does not come out easily the trial must
be abandoned for that day. More cold
cream must be applied. After two or
three such treatments blackhead OF
ordinary obstinacy may be pressed
out Tincture Of benZoine is admir-
able for it's softening and tightening
qualities. It's constant use will reduce
enlarged pores TO a normal size, and
will keep wrinkles from getting much
