RHYTHM or NIAGARA'S ROAR.

Eugene Thayer, the well-known or
ganist, has published an analysis of the
music OF Niagara Falls In an article
In Trinity Record he says:

lief that Niagara had not been

two-foot pipe OF the organ. Then ho

b"ns-Some Recs mt Fighting.
Havana, Sept. Z. = A wealthy mer-.
chant named Bias Casares has been
arrested at Puerto Principe, charged
with political offenses. A party of in
surgents recently made an attack on
Fort Santo Cristo del Vale, near
sabalo, in the Province Of Pinar del
klo. The garrison made a stout re-
slstance but the insurgents set fire to
mousse near the walls of the fort,
which took fire, compelling the gar
rlson TO retire with the loss of six men
Killed Two brothers named Portillo

were reinforced by number of their
comrades. After sharp fighting the
insurgents were driven off with the
loss of four killed and six wounded.
1t is reported that a group of insur
gents attacked and entered the town
OF Janaguayabo, near Remedies.
where they sacked several stores and
burned number Of houses. 1t is also
reported that the insurgents have
hred upon Guira Melena, in Havana
province.
Durlng the month Of August 500 per-
sons died in Guines from endemic
diseases. All of the victims, with one
exception were Cubans. The rate of
mortality among the refugees is very
great ana the same is true regarding
the troops. The mortality due to vel
low FEVER, malaria and dysintery is
excessive. 1t is estimated that 81 out
OF every 1000 sick soldiers in the hos
pltals throughout the island die. 1t is
stated that from 20 to 26 deaths oc-
cur on each of the steamers which
carry sick and disabled troops from
Cuba to Spain.
During his recent tour Gen. Weyler
deposed the mayors of several towns
and sent various military command
ers to Cabanas castle. At Guines and
other towns he caused the release
from custody of number of mer-
chants and recOncentrados who had
Deen falsely accused. He has issued
an order prohibiting the planting of
tobacco within the boundaries of the
military cultivated zone. He declares
that If the reconcentrados die from
hunger the mayors of the towns will
be to blame for their deaths because
or their negligence in carrying out his
instructions.
The insurgent general, Castillo. with
mis- command, has crossed the line into
the Province of Pinar del Rio. The
last advices received refer to engage

IN almost every case the delegates to
the district convention have been in

national convention who will fight for
the maximum rate of 60 cents, but it
is believed the leaders will convince .
the delegates who will attend the Co.

left for the miners is to accept the IS
cent compromise for the present and
at the December conference insist on
higher rate for next year.

in the neighborhood of fifty delegates
to the Columbus convention, but not

attend. Those who do go, it is conf
