In answer to the ever growing de-
mand for history that is told in way
to interest the young, Charles Morris,
who has already done some valuable
work in this field, has written two
volumes of Historic Tales" THE Ro-
nance of Realty" is the appropriate
subtitle he gave them and the annals
of Greece and Rome furnish the sub
ject matter. The events of real i'm
pOrtance and dramatic possibilities are
thrown into the form Of short stories,
each one complete in itself, but so
arranged that taken together they give
a connected and satisfactory view Of
the history of Greece and Rome. The
books are illustrated by number Of
half-tone reproductions from photo
graphs Of the best ruins of the two
great nations, and from famous paint
ings Of the events recorded in the text.

Cubans Are Starving.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 25.-The most
profound distress prevails among many
thousands of people in Cuba. Starva.
ton not only impends, but is an actual
fact. The president has been informed
of the facts from sources whose credibil-
ity cannot be doubted. He. has gone to
the length of his constitutional power
in calling the state Of affairs to public
attention. The state department has
exhausted its power and the letter to
the public sent out by Secretary Sher-
man the day before Christmas pointed
out the way to further alleviate the
miserable. condition OF. the reconcen-
trados. Yesterday Assistant Secretary
Day received the SUN of $4,000 from
certain charitably disposed persons
whose names are not disclosed, and this
sum will be remitted by telegraph to
Consul General Lee. 1t is hoped by
the state department that the Ameri-
can people will come to the relief.

WASHINGToN, Dec. 27.-The recent
tragic death Of Miss Leila Herbert, the
daughter of the ex-secretary of the
navy is given as the reason for the
suicide which occurred today of Miss

Miss Wells had met Miss Herbert a
number of times and was very much
attached to her, She herself had been
confined to the house for months by
illness, and this combined with the
shock caused by the death of her friend
brought on melancholia which resulted
in suicide. The deed was apparently

shot and killed Mrs. P. G. Lenhart, in

developed at the coroner's inquest to
explain the killing
