There is one lady in Augusta, who
through her distrust in savings banks
has lost a small sum of money. She

it was burned, but only few bills Of

afraid of placing in the care Of bank

placed the roll in an air tight stove. in
her bed chamber, which was never
used to build fire in All went well
until one day she was taken sick. and
several of her friends flocked to her
assistance. and one thinking that a
IRE was necessary. proceeded to build
one in the lady's bank-the stove-ba-
fore anyone knew what she was about.
and to her distress. the sick woma,
was warmed by one of the most ex-
pensive fires she ever saw built in one
stove. 1t is doubtful if the experience
has in any way strengthened her faith
in banks, but it is safe to say. how
ever. that she will never put her
money in stove again.

The advices from Santa Clara are that
In the battle at Ceniza the loss Of the
Spanish. under General Weyler, amount
eo to 500 killed and wounded. In the
battle at CalaSazas and Cabaiguan, the
Spanish losses are reported to have been
equally as large, but the Spanish dead

Gomez commanded in person.
The fighting has been continuous on

and the Cuban patriots have scored
numerous victories. The battle OF Ce-
MIA resulted in a complete rout for the
Spanish commanded by General Legura.
He was met by the patriots under Cen

The Spanish government officials lay
the blame of the Spanish defeat to the

had placed in position to command a

to pass. In the battle AZ Spaniards are
known to have been killed and more than
100 wounded have been brought into Ha-
