II the latter style is more becoming. The
fitting must be made with the greatest
precision and the basque may accompany
a five or seven-gored skirt or ole shaped
in circular style. As the preference for
braid trimming is more pronounced than
at any other time the variety in this
particular line Of garniture has increased
correspondingly. The scroll design Is
dominant and floral and conventional de-
vices are also given prominence Branden-
burg sets are also among the stylish trim

CubanS In Luck.

HAVANA, Cuba. June 1S.-The train
from Havana to Matanzas, which was
blown up last week, between Minas
and Campo Florido, carried 100000
IN SIS gold-pieces. All this fell INTO
the hands Of the Cubans and will be
sent to New York to the .Junta to be
used in buying ammunition for the
patriots. Though the fact has been
carefully concealed by the Spanish
authorities. it is positively known
now, through direct communication
received from the Cuban camp.
Deserhons from the Spanish army
are more numerous every day. One
hundred soldiers of the Pizarro bar
TALON have joined the Insurgents. A
few minutes after they arrived at the
Cuban lines they were attcked by the
Spanish column and fought desper.
ately on the Cuban sile, defeating
the column which was commanded to
retire with seventeen killed and
twenty-one wounded, many of them
officers.
The Spanish deserters say that lite
in the Spanish Army Is simply intol-
cradle. The soldiers are roughly
treated, have scarcely ANYTHING to eat
and have received pay only in paper
money. ...-
The steamer which left for SPAN
on June 18th carried twenty seven
Spanish guerrillas sentenced to hard
labor.

VICTORY IN SIGHT.

After quarter of century Of alb
solute rule by bank manipulators
money changers, extortionists and
stock jobbers through secret and cor
rupt agencies, the enemies Of the
people are forced to do battle in the
coming campaigns in the open field.
1t is true the enemy is entrenched
behind breastw orks of fraud aud cor
ruption. The contraction of the
money volume by the destruction of
silver and the use Of gold alone is the
satanic post which must first be
taken. The rallylng cry in defense
of the advanced position of gold con-
traction around which the evil spirits
that infest the earth and the depraved
Of human nature congregstc, is the
sanctimonious, hypocritical, nonsen-
steal platitude Sound money"
The words 4soucd money" are en-
blazoned on the banners of the bank
robbers, shy locks, extortionists, and
bribers Of every grade, and constitute
the headlines of the bombastic, false,
and brazen edit orials Of venal press.
The phrase Sound money" has 80
long been associated and formed 30
large part Of the vocabulary of the
parasites and robbers Of the human
race that it has become a sign or en-
blem OF everything cunning. crooked,
dishonest and corrupt. 1t is also a
sign held out to the American people
to indicate the pre- sence of the enemy
and to show where to begin and
where to end the fight.

or their emissaries, raise the infam-
Gus banner emblazoned with Sound
money" there ID the place to strike.
There is no danger in firing upon any
multitude carrying a banner bearing
che Infamous motto. of hurting any
innocent map. Since the line has
been drawn between Democracy and
plutocracy, the man who in 1893 and
1900 gets on the wrong side Of that
line and shelters himself under the
Ubiquitous motto, Sound money" is
rebel and traitor, who has forfeited
every claim to the consideration of

New Uses for Class.

Attention was recently called in this
column to the proposed use of glass
brick in building. 1t is now said that
the government of Switzerland has
approved the use of glass for making
weights to be employed with balance
scales. a peculiarly tough kind of
glass is to be selected for this purpose.
From England comes tn. suggestion
that glass would be a better and more
lasting material than stone for making
monuments. which are exposed to the
wearing action of the weather.
