CUBANs WANT DYNAMITE.

With the Gomez letter was one from
General Calixto Garcia, who commands
the troops in the eastern provinces.
'9The dynamite which was sent us,
writes General Garcia, played an inn
portant part in the capture of Las
Lunas Its destructive shells spread
terror through the Spanish troops. We
besieged it for three days. when it
finally surrendered. We found many
of the troops in a terrible condition.
At least 100 men fell victims to the
dynamite shells, a good many more
being badly wounded. The rest of the
500 men were in an utterly demoralized
condition when the Spanish flag was
hauled down. If we had few. more
dynamite guns We should soon end the
war. Reports of its destructive work
here have spread all through Cuba and
have dlsheartened the Spanish SOL
afers.''

SHOULD SEEK COUNSEL.

Il wish TO state continued Presi-
dent Cannon. that the bondage we
are now in is due to the failure Of the
Saints to seek counsel or listen to it.
IF the people had been humble these
adverse conditions would not prevail
God did not bring his people here to
{ starVe or to go idle. Converts who
come here from foreign lands fail to
find employment and many return
/ home There is something wrong. How
many Latter-day Saints are employed
by the railroads? The answer is easy.
And vet the Saints built all the rail-
roads here but one. If Lauter-day
Saints had strenuously held to what
they owned the result would have
been different. The roads would not
then have sent away for men instead
of getting men among our own people
Herein the Saints have committed fol
". we have sinned and we are reaplng
I the results. When people have neg
lected the counsellOrs that God has
/ chosen, it is small wonder that calam-
itous conditions have resulted.
One great duty of the Saints is TO
build UP Zion. 1t is one Of our great
4 est responsibilities. Personally my
aim has been exclusively TO build up
Zion. / have no other aim. If 1 owned
railroad property, / should first CON
slider. before selling it, whether it was
consistent with the building up OF Zion
and Israel. I had a chance to sell Utah
Central stock for a very large amount
but l would not do it. l do not mean
by this that all Others beside the SAINTS
shall be excluded from Zion. But II
Zion there would be no lavish e1pen-
diture of money. no exhorbitaHt sala-
ries, no sin that the law would not
reach. It is our intense desire to see
a better condition prevail. Ii never
will be until the voice of inspired men
is listened to. When this territory
passed cut of the control Of the men
who brought the people here, there was
an admirable condition OF az
fairs. Taxes were low; expen-
ditures were low and when men
have considered their OWN interests in
stead of those of Zion have not prUtited
by il. This is exemplified on all sides
Those who have sought counsel have
prospered by il. It is our duty to build
up Zion. not exclusively for the Nor
mons, but for all good people. We
know our mission and we say. with
out egotiSrn, how to build up this COM
munity We know that if counsel were
listened to there would be a great
change for good 1 want to warn the

it appears, is growing up among the
Saints as to the scriptures. II asked
how often they had read the scriptures,
the Saints-or many of them-WOuld
have to answer that they were not in
the habit of reading the word of God
as given in the records. There are
many families who do not read the
Bible or Book of Mormon or other
church works. This may be an unjust
statement and it is to be hoped that
it is
Respect cannot be paid to the living
oraeles. by not reading the printed
word. Ii is the word OF God and should
not be neglected At the present time,
novels, scientific works and pubhca-
tions that do not lead TO faith are
more dead. and the danger is that
wave of infidelity may sweep over the
Saints The magazines are filled With
arguments opposed to the truths found
in the church works. Young men who
go to college become imbued with this
infidelity. The principles of truth are
being undermined, and if it we're not
for the Bible and other books the Saints
would be at sea. People are taught not
to believe in the Book of Moses and
fallacies are being spread broadcast.
The Saints. unless they continue TO
read the works of God, are in great
danger of being led astray. The peo-
pie know that the Book of Mormon is
true and whenever anything conflicts
with it. it should be known that such
doctrine cannot be true and faithful.
There is especial danger TO the young
people when parents read novels ana
other light stuff they cannot expect
anything different from their children.
This is a serious question and cannot
be overlooked by the Saints 1t is not
to be wondered at that the young peo-
pie go astray under such conditions.

ALL ABOUT FIELD TRIALS.
Death OF TWO Valuable Hunting
DOQS.

AL Truman has been very unfortu-
nate of late with his dogs. He had two
young pointers entered for the Bakers
field trials and they were returned to
him a few weeks ago by F. J. Stone of
Fresno, who was handling the dogs for
the trials. They were both down with
distemper, and one of them, Don Crox-
teth. died a few days ago. The other
pointer, Bang Croxteth, was very Ill,
but good treatment pulled him through
If everything goes well with Bang Mr..
Truman expects to see him give a good
account of himself at Bakersfield next
month.
1t is said that George E. Gray, a well
known Eastern field trial handler, has
contracted with the Verona Kennels,
which are located near Pleasanton, to
take charge Of the kennels for three
years after he has completed the East
ern circuit of field trials. He is ex-
pected on this coast in the latter part
of January.
Fred Venker lost a valuable young
dog few days ago by distemper, the
result Of bad cold.

THE VAN buren,
FAMILY AIDED
Kind Hearted Ladies and Cen
tlemen Most Cheerfully
Respond.
Money and Provisions Forwarded
to the Home of the
Distressed.

The humble home of Mrs. Van Buren,
at 722 Grove street was visited yester-
day by dozens of kind-hearted and
sympathetic callers, who came, not
with empty hands. On the contrary
each caller brought something TO
relieve the mother and little ones whose
wants a few days ago were of the
direst. Early in the forenoon several
persons called at. The Call publication
Office and silently left a donation of
money, with the request that it be for
warded to the family. This request
was faithfully complied with and the
several sums We're sent to the house
In the majority of cases the parties
leaving a remittance declined to give
their names and those who were per
sonally known asked it as a favor that
their names be not mentioned. This
request was complied with when made.
but as others did not place this in
junction with their donation, a few Of
the names are here given. Mrs. T. M.
Lilienthal, who is stopping at the
quest that it be given to Mrs. Van
Buren in person. A gentleman from
Sacramento, who had read in The Call
an account of the condition of the fam
lily, sent So to John d. Spreckels to be
given to the family. With this amount
several smaller sums were left and for
warded during the day.
A visit to the residence showed that
the immediate wants of the Van Buren,
family had been relieved. Among
those who lost no time in driving the
wolf from the door may be mentioned: /:
Mrs. H. e. Pumphrey, of 1402 Ellis
street, who supplied household furni-
ture; Mrs. S. NJ. Bennell, of Van
Ness avenue, who saw that two
months rent for the home had been
paid in advance; Mrs. Nellie Watt. of
Alvarado street, money and groceries:
Mrs. NJ. Schultz, of Lotta street. a
basketful OF choice preserves and gro
ceries; Mrs j. w. Wilson, of % Minna
street, personal attention in nursing
and taking care of the sick child pre-
vious to it's death and otherwise look
ing after Mrs. Van Burens comfort:
Professor Bunnell, of Berkeley, for an
order on a grocer for a full supply of
what he thought was necessary; Mrs.
Hattie i. Travers, Miss Sherman of
1852 Stockton street, and several
others.
Through the kindness of Mrs. Pun
phrey Van Buren was taken to a cloth
ing store and rugged out in decent
wearing apparel with which he looked
presentable to accept a job which has
been promised him.
With this aid the family has been re-
lieved and it now remains with the
