soil for it's products equally In the
Canary and Balearic islands. The
largest penal colony in the Canary
islands is on the island Of Fuerteven-
tura, which is sixty-three square
leagues in dimensions and has q popu-
lation of 1900, nearly all being con-
victs.
Deportation to these cenal colonies
is made in the most shiftless and cruel
manner From all parts Of Spain the
prisoners who are to be sent to the
penal colonies are marched through
rain or snow to the Sladero, or deten-
ton prison, at Madrid. Then they are
marched, with insufficient clothes and
with absolutely no provision for food,
to Valencia.
Here they are shipped to the colo
MES in old. Anticipated ships, which
are over-crowded to the verge of posi-
tive danger. Herded like cattle In
pens, beaten by ignorant and brutal
soldiers. they &c to a living death In
the colonies, where stripes are given
more often than food, and where bru-
tally is visited with the smiles of su'
perior officers. No wonder that suicide
is the natural thought Of the usual
Spanish convict.
The political prisoner fares worse
than the criminal guilty Of assassina'
ton. The latter is regarded merely as
the enemy of the individual, while the
former is regarded as the enemy OF
the king.
The Dupuyer acantha. [volume] (Dupuyer, Mont.) 1894-1904, 1896-03-19
THE RROTE.

Most Of the political prisoners are
sent to Ceuta, Africa. Ceuta Is an old
Moorish seaport town in Morocco, OPP
posite Gibraltar. The town is on the
side of the ancient mountain Abyla,
which forms one of the Pillars of Her.
cules, the Rock of Gibraltar being the
other. 1t Is almost impregnable, and
is to Spain what Siberia is to Russia,
with the exception that it is even
more horrible. The town was built by
the Moors about 945, and it is proba-
Bile that there is no other n place in
the world where so many devices of
torture are concentrated.
Ceuta is a very small place, and the
Moors constructed a chain Of fortress
es around 1t to guard against any pos
sible attack. 1t is in the cellars of
these ancient and decaying fortresses
that the dungeons are located. They
are hewn out Of the solid rock and are
in tiers to q depth of fifty or sixty
feet. The approach to them is made
through narrow openings in the stone
floors of the fortress, and when the
horrible hole is opened the foul odor
Of fifth and decomposition is overpow-
ering.
These dungeons are inhabited almost
solely by political prisoners, and many
Cubans arrested during the present re
bellion are there. Some are in solitary
confinement; others are in dungeons
holding thirty or forty men.
When a man is placed in solitary
confinement a hole is cut in the ma
sonry large enough to admit the pas
sage Of his body and he is dropped in.
A blacksmith follows and YIELDS on
the letters. Locks and keys are never
used. A heavy weight with a chain
Is welded to the ankle and an iron
band is welded about the waist. A
chain attached to the latter is welded
to an iron ring sunk in the wall Of
solid rock. The hole in the masonry
is bricked up again with the exception
of a small space a few inches square.
Through this comes the scant air and
the scraps Of food allowed the victim.
After that the nan is left to live or
rot. The filth of these holes cannot
be adequately described. Disease is
merciful here, for few men survive the
torture for any length Of time.-Wash-
ington Post.

Baltic and Black Sen Works Turn
Ing Ont Wnrships.
The Russian navy continues to grow
apace. A few days ago the Admiral
Oushakoff, the first Of a new class of
vessels. designed especially for coast
defense, had her steam trials in the
Baltic, maintaining a speed of fifteen
knots for twelve hours. Although of
comparatively small displacement, she
carries q powerful armament, consist
ing of four 1O-inch breechloading guns
placed in two armored t%urrets, four
12O-mm. caliber new pattern quick
firing guns, twenty-four small caliber
Hotchkiss and four torpedo-launching
tubes. A complete belt Of m and
an armor deck from stem to stern pro-
tect the vitals Of the ship, all ma
chinery, boilers, ETC., being placed be-
low the protective deck.
AT st. Petersburg there Is constant
activity in naval affairs. The cruiser
Rurik. built and engined by the Baltic
works, is at anchor in Cronstadt
Roads, having satisfactorily completed
her steam and gun trials. The battle
ship Navarin, built and engined in st.
Petersburg, is about to make steam
trials. The battleships Poltava, Sevas-
topol and Petropaulovsk, all built in
government dock yards, have their
machinery on board, and will be ready
for trial next spring. The Sissol Veligy
and Admiral Senyavin are both prac-
tically ready for trial at sea. The Ad-

made in Germany is now the rec
Ognized trade mark for chemicals
throughout the world. The dyes and
by-products derived from coal tar have
become q classical instance, or, as Ba-
con would have said, a glazing exam
pie. AS we have stated, the father
landers have captured these trades
from us. Go to Elberfield, and what
do we see? At the Farbenfabriken,
besides first-class works, we are shown
a laboratory unsurpassed, perhaps not
equaled in London, and employed In
research or in the business there are
sixty first-class chemists. In the
Badische Anilin und Scdafabrik sew
enty-eight chemists are engaged. An
expert witness told the Gresham COM
mission that six skilled chemists was
the maximum number employed In
any English color works, If, indeed,
there were SO many. These men are
increasingly active in research. The
price to pay for progress is eternal
vigilance. Every hint from England,
France, America or Italy is tried;
every new material tested; every hope
full process patented. The great works
at Hochst made in 1890 from LOO to
1900 colors. they employed 5000
hands, 10 chemists and II engineers.
A firm in Offenbach with 800 workers
had As investigators.
The lesson that has been driven

SPANS Treatment of Captives
In Former Cuban Wars.

The desperation Of the Cubans who
are fighting Spain for the liberty of
their island excites wonder at times
in the American mind, and some are
inclined to think them too bloodthirsty
In their system Of warfare. 1t is true
very little quarter is given the Span
ish soldiery in any of the conflicts
where the insurgents have the upper
hand, but there is a good, substantial
a for this seeming heartlessness.
The soldier of the insurgent army
know that a fate blacker than death
will be their allotment il they fail.
The kingdom of Spain has never dis
played a gentle hand to it's enemies.
Dark echoes Of the lnquisition perme-
ate it's treatment Of malefactors, for
as such the Cuban insurgents are re-
garded. The prison system of Spain
is more barbarOus to-day than that of
either Turkey or Russia, and that is
saying a good deal.
For more than a thousand years the
Spaniards have made a study Of tor.
ture, and the long accumulation of
knowledge handed from one genera
ton to another, and elaborated upon
by each, makes their prisons the worst
OH earth. There are men forgotten

and unnamed rotting away in the
Spanish dungeons to-day, under con-
ditions more horrible than that pic
tured by Dickens in his Tale of Two
Cities" in the character Of the old
doctor confined in the bastile for
twenty-five years. Men who took part
in the previous Cuban rebellion, near
ly a generation ago,m may still be living
in the dungeons. Thirty years hence
some Of the men who are now lighting
so ~valiantly in Cuba may be rotting
away in the anne pest-holes. 1t is this
prospect which makes them desperate
and bloodthirsty, and eager to accept
a thousand risks to shake off the tor
ture that awaits them.
Each week patches of Cuban sus-
poets are forwarded to Spain. 10 be
a suspect Is equivalent to being guilty,
and those who go will, in all proba-
bility, never return. If a wealthy
planter Is suspected of furnishing fl
nancial aid to the insurgents he is
pounced upon and shipped off. lnhn-
itely better would have been his fate
had he Joined the insurgent army and
been killed on the field of battle.
The ordinary suspect Is not exc
cuted, but If he be proved guilty of
treason the garrote will speedily end
his troubles. The garrote is the official
form of punishment in Spain.
Nearly all of the death sentences are
executed in the Pradara de la Ysidro,
in Madrid. All executions are public,
and are usually held early in the morn
ing. The criminal Is always mounted
upon the back Of a tiny Spanish don
key, and goes to the place Of execu-
ton in a procession which consists of
citizens, priests and soldiers.
Prior to leaving the prison in which
the condemned has been confined mass
is celebrated, and the death sentence
is read to the guilty wretch. When
the prisoner reaches the place of e
ecution he mounts a scaffold, a black
handkerchief is tied over his face. and
he is manacled to a chair. Then
around his neck is placed the band of
the garrote. Two turns of n powerful
thumb-screw brushes the neck Of the
| victim and almost sewers the head
from the body.
Death Ia claimed to be absolutely in
| Simultaneous. After the execution, the
body of the victim is allowed to re-
main for several hours in plain view
of the crowds, which have een the
accomplishment of the deed of justice,
All executions are looked upon by the
lower Spaniard as being excellent en-
tertainment.
While torture has been nominally
abolished. the prisons themselves,
combined with the system, are such
that the agony of the culprit Is con-
