TRocHA COST MANY LIVES.

Over 1900 Soldiers Died of Fever Con-
tracted There.
A decided change has been made in
the plan of military operations in Pinar
del Rio province.
The western trocha has not been
abandoned yet, but the force along
that military line has been greatly re-
duced already. Three brigades of in
fantry have gone into the mountain
Gus country OH the north coast, the
only part where the insurgents find
anything Ike security.
The trocha, says n Havana dispatch,
was n costly mistake in many respects;
in others it served it's purpose. The
work was too ~eXpensively built. AL
though intended for a temporary pur-
pose, the blockhouses in many in
stances were of brick and finished as if
for permanent use. Even the mortar
at the joints was nicely fooled. The
same disposition to erect massive and
permanent works that distinguished the
SPaniarIs in the days OF the colonial
ton Of America exists to-day. The
trocha. caused Ma"eo a great deal of
annoyG!.ce. 1t staid the passage of
large bodies of men east and west. Only
small groups succeeded in crossing.
The maintenance Of the trocha has
cost dearly in human life. The country
through which it runs is malarious
naturally, and the throwing up of earth
works left pits which filled with stag
nant water in the rainy season. More
than 1000 soldiers have died from dis
ease contracted there. Even now many
are sick, mostly with chills and fever.
Yellow fever and ~dysentery have been
epidemic.

BIG A%LLlGAToRs.

Somo Odd Tales Told by an Old Florida
Hotel Register.
AZ the end of a chapter on alliRators,
in his book Hunting and Fishing in
Florida" Mr.. Charles B. Cory, curator
of the Departmental 6rnithology in the
Field Columbian museum, Chicago,
gives an entry which he one saw in
the register of the Brock house.
In the old days, when transportation
was more difficult than it is at present,
the Brock house was about the end Of
civilization, and was q "a hours trip
by boat from Jacksonville. 1t was at
that time a great resort for sportsmen,
who were attracted there by the fish
ing and shooting to be had in the vi
cinity.
The old register, which extended
back n great many years, contained
some queer records, many of them of
doubtful v%eracity. Among others.
some one had written:
March 10, 1872, killed q large alli-
gator, the largest seen here this year:
n stomach contained o boot, a piece
of pine wood. n fSherman's float. md
some small fish"
Immediately beneath this record was
another, evidently added by some wag:
March "a, killed Il much bigger alli-
gator than the one mentioned above.
The stomach contained n gold watch,
$4,000 in government bonds, and n
cord of wood"
On the next page, written in n neat,
un~obtrusive style, was inscribed the
following: "Shot the biggest alligator
ever known in Florida; the stomach
contained the remains of a steam
launch, Il lot of old railway iron, md a
quantity of melted ice, proving that it
existed during the glacial epoch"
