The traveller, tourist or business
man of the west is wise when he
selects the Rio Grande Western
Railway, "Great Sadt Lake Route"
for his route across the Rockies.
1t is the only transcontinental line
passing directly through Salt Lake
City, and in addition to the glimpse
it affords Of the Temple City, the
Great Salt Lake and the picturesque
Jordan valley, it affords choice of
three distinct routes through the
mountains and the most magnifi-
cent scenery in the world It's road
bed and equipment cannot be ex-
celled by any line west of Chicago;
and while the RIO GRANDE WEST
ERN RAILWAY has been made
far-ous by the beauty and variety
Of the scenery on its line, it is
equally noted for comfort and ele.
gance Of its trains. Through Pull
man palace sleeping cars between
Ogden, Salt Lake City and Denver;

New York, Dec. 25.-A special dis
patch from William Shaw Bowen at
Havana says the bullets that ended
the earthly career of Antonio Maceo,
the Cuban patriot leader, bored their
way straight to the heart OF the rebel
lien.
Tho insurgent bands that roam
through the province Of Pinar del Rio
are scattered now They await the
coming of 4 leader in whom they can
have confidence. They need the magic
and the magnetism CT a brave COM
mander.
Il met General Melquizzo, the militia
ry head Of the district, and had a long
nnh interesting talk with him, He had
just returned from fortnight's expe=
dition through this territory, lie said
that he found no insurgents save q
few groups of four or Ave. "Most OF
the rebels" he said, "have hidden
their armesand are posing as paciflcos.
General Melquizzo paid a generous
tribute to Maceo. Ills DEATH he says.
His black followers sacrificed their
homes in their devotion to him. His
white adherents are WORTHLESS as fight
ing men. I found much suffering
among the people of the hills In many
cases young children brought into
camp were so nearly starved that they
could not retain solid food"

UotohlSiss and MAIDS the Spaniards
TilinlS She Was an Amer

Key We5t, Fla, Dec. 25.-The first
place between the filibuster Three
Friends on one side and q Spanish
gunbOat and launch on the other. Aft
or silencing the Spanish guns the fill
buster steamed away and escaped.
A trap had been laid for the Three
Friends, with her large cargo Of arms
and ammunition. and but for the fact
she carried q 12-pound Hotchkiss for
defense she would have been captured
and the so men she carried murdered.
When about to land she was fired
upon by the launch, but paralyzed the
spauiards by returning the fire, and
they sent up a rocket for assistance.
This brought the gunboat which was
nearby,
The nlibuster and gunboat exchang-
ed shot for shot until finally the guns
on the Spaniard ceased to respond.
Whether they were disabled is not
known. Then the Three Friends went
to another point, and after landing her
cargo returned here.
Private advices from Havana say the
story has been circulated there that
the spanlnrd was attacked by a United
States warship The battle was at
night and it was impossible to make
out anything but tho outline Of the
ships. Had il been daylight the gum
boat and launch would undoubtedly
have been sunk.
