the fair has been in existence and was
always prosperous, until the directors
spent $4,000 on big grand stand. This
led to the mortgage being placed on the

THE CUBAN SITUATION.

Commissioner Calhoun is coming back
from Cuba with his tale of horrors. He
is expected here next week. 1t is known
that the investigation into the causes Of
the death of DIR. Ruiz in the Guanobacoa
Jail has been farce. It has been inn
possible to get evidence of anything be-
yond the fact that the prisoner went into
the Jail in good health, was kept there
weeks without communication with the
outside world, and then was dead. The
Spaniards produce the prisoners to tes-
tify that they did not see any violence
done him, and there the case stops. Just
as though one Of Weyler's prisoners
could dare to testify to anything except
according to instructions!
Furthermore, it appears that Mr.. Cal
houn has been closely Swallowed day and
night by Spanish spies, and when he
protested they have simply followed at
greater distance. The object of this has
been to brighten Cuban sympathizers who
might otherwise see and talk to him, and
thus enable him to hear the revolution
lists side Of the case.
Spain has not helped her cause by
assimilation and fair words to our Com
missioner upon his arrival. In the
meantime the rainy season has fairly
opened, and the horrors of the Spanish
camps and the overcrowded towns is
intensified. Reports of unusual activity
on the part of the insurgents find their
way out past the censorships, and the
dreary struggle goes on with murder,
rapine, rain, and yellowjack as the
combined elements of death and disaster.
Spain is trying, according to latest
advices, to enlist the sympathy of
Europe, which was denied two years ago.
She has taken courage at the sinister
fate of Crete, crushed by the Powers
at the invitation of Turkey. The Span
ish Prime Minister, however, will find
the cases not parallel. Crete was within
stealing distance, while the Monroe
Doctrine forbids any hope of a change
of flag in Cuba except it be to the gal
liant blue and white banner with the
single star, the banner for which Lopez
raised, and for which Cespedes, Mart,
and Maceo died.

PERSONAL.

Brooklyn IN. " politicians are watching
with interest the triangular, four legged con-
test for United States Pension Agent now going
on. There three candidates. all Grand
Army veterans, aud all with strong backing.
Two OF them one-legged. Gen. Avery,
whose claims are being urged by Congressman
HUXLEY, gave leg in his country's defense.
Maj. J. w. Cronkhite who also is minus q
limb, is backed by Congressman Israel Fisher
and Silas b. butcher. The third candidate is
Col. Charles Jackson, and the County organi-
cation, it is said. favors him. The place Is
worth $4,000 year.
The Oldest member Of the Grand Army Of
the Republic is said to be Capt John Haynes,
an inmate of the Memorial Home st. Louis,
No., who celebrated his Tooth birthday last
Christmas. Capt. Haynes was born in White
County, Tenn, Dec. %, 1857. He was reared
in the rugged Cumberland Mountain section
of his native State. When the War of 1872
came on, Capt Haynes was robust young
man. The Captain fought under Gen. Jackson
In tbe-battle of New Orleans. He displayed
such daring bravery that he was the Recipients
OF high personal compliment from Jackson.
When steamboats, were invented Capt. Haynes
was ore of the first to engage in the BUSH
ness. He became an expert engineer, and for
many years was employed on boats plying
between st. Louis, Memphis, Vicksburg, and
New Orleans. When the civil war began, Capt.
Haynes was resident of st. Louis, engaged
In steamboating. He at once entered the Fed
srai service rs engineer. For over half q
century the Captain has been member Of the
Masons and Odd Fellows. However il has
been q long while since lie has been able 20 go
to lodge, or to take any interest in the work.
He is proud of the three orders-ths GAR,
the Masons. and the Odd Fellows.
David Reichty, Co. X, 51st Pa, who served

the said office, and is well backed By comrades

Congressman John L McLaurin, of the
Sixth District. South Carolina, has been ap-
pointed Senator by Gov. EiIerbe to succeed
Senator Earle. who died recently. Mr. Me-
Laurin will serve until January next whom
the South Carolina Legislature meets to elect
Senator for the balance of Senator Es:le's
term. A primary election will be held this
Summer, TO nominate Senator, who will be
formally elected by the Legislature. Mr.. Nc
Lanrin was elected to the Legislature of South
Carolina in 1890, the year in which the present
Senator, Tillman, carried the State and de-
feated political regime which had been
founded by Senators Hampton and Butler In
1891 he was chosen Acknowledgement of the
State and subsequently came TO Congress, in
which he has already served three terms. He
was named for this Congress a member of the
Ways and Means Committee, and is regarded
as an able member of his party. He is Free
Silver Democrat.

not by any means improbable that our army
in Virginia would have been defeated, capt
ured, or driven out of the State this week.
Then reinforcemeDts from all the Eastern
and Southern portion of the country would
have been cut off from Beauregard. The
enemy have Huntsville now, and with all
these designs accomplished, his army would
have been effectuSlly fanked. The mind
and heart shrink appalled, at the awful con-
sequences that would have followed the
success of this one act When Fuller, MUIR
ply, and Cain started from Big Shanty on
foot tocaphnre that fugitive engine. they were
invoIuntarily laughed at by the crowd,
serious as the matter was-and to most OBJ
servers it was, indeed, most ludicrous; bat
that foot race saved US, and prevented the
contamination of all these tremendous conse-
quences.
One fact we must not omit to mention. is the
valuable assistance rendered by Peter Brack-
en-, the engineer on the down freight train
which Fuller and Murphy turned back. He
ran his engine fifty and half miles-two Of
them backing the whole freight train up to
Adairsville, made IL stops, coupled to the
two cars which the fugitives had dropped,
and switched them off on sidings-all this
in one hour and five minutes.
We doubt if the victory of Manassas or
Corinth were worth as much to us as the
Illustration of this grand coup d. etat. 1t is
not by any means certain that the annihila-
ton Of Beauregard's whole army at Cerinth
would be so fatal a blow to us as would have
been the burning Of the bridges at that time
and by these men.
REBELS THINK THEY UNDERSTAND 1T.
When we learned by private telegraph
dispatch. a few days ago, that the Yankees
had taken Huntsville, we attached no great
Importance to it. We regarded it merely as
dasiung foray of small party to destroy
property, tear up the road, ETC., a la Morgan.
When an additional telegram announced the
Federal force there to be from seventeen thou
sand TO twenty Thousand, we were inclined to
