INSURGENTS USED DYNAMITE.
A Railroad Station Near Santa Clara
Blown Up.

Havana, via Key West, Fla, August
4.-The insurgents dynamited the culvert
near the Esperanza railroad station of the
city of Santa Clara on the night of July
20. The culvert was completely destroyed.
The next night while local volunteer
forces were patrolling the town they came
suddenly upon a group of insurgents in
one of the principal street. The challenge
was given and the insurgents rallied
with viva Cuba Libre,'' and opened
fire.
AS soon as the insurgents were d is.
covered great panic ensued among the
residents, women. children and aged leg
ging for protection, while the men either
sided with the insurgents or joined the
Spanish forces. The stores were looted,
the invaders providing themselves with
food, clothing and cash. The military
commander ordered the garrison to help
the patrolmen in the attack upon the in
surgents. The latter were finally repulsed,
the regular troops losing one killed and
y wounded. The insurgents left four
killed and took away about 20 wounded.

LAID HEAVY HANDS ON aEIsslNeER
A Clergyman Visiting at Old Orchard Ar
rested for Assault.

Biddeford, August 4.-This afternoon
Deputy Sheriff John Il: Goldthwaite went
to Old Orchard and arrested the Rev.
Harvey G. Furbey, who, it is said, is pas
tor of a wealthy church in Philadelphia,
on a capias writ in favor of Walter
Geissinger, also of Philadelphia, who
charges the reverend gentleman with as
sauIt and battery.
The story told is to the effect that dur
ing the last year an attempt was made
by some of his Pensioners to get rid of
the Rev. Harvey 6. Furbey and there
was for time great deal of trouble
in the church in Philadelphia of which
he is the pastor, serious complaints, if
not serious charges, being made against
him. But the attempt to GUST him out
was of no avail and he continued to
minister to the spiritual wants and
needs of his flock.
This summer he came to Old Orchard
for rest as usual and Mr.. Giessinger came
also, but they stopped at different houses
Within two or three days, it is said, the
Rev. Harvey G.. Furbey got it into his
head that Mr.. Geissinger had told .stories
to one Of the formers Pensioners in
Philadelphia about his alleged conduct at
Old Orchard last summer which serious
ly reflected on his character. According
to Geissenger's story, the divine from
the City of Brotherly Love, tried to ar
range a meeting with Mr.. Geissenger,
several letters being written and sent to
him with this object in view. Mr.. Gels
senger paid little attention to these let
tiers al first, but finally meeting was ar
ranged and was held in room at the
Old Orchard house last Monday. There
were present besides Rev. Harvey G.
Furbey and Mr.. Geissenger, Mr. Furbey S
wife and male friend of Mr.. Geissenger.
1t is stated that the meeting between
the principles was very warm and excit-
ing, that the Rev. Harvey G.. Furbey
accused Mr.. Geissenger of telling certain
stories which Mr. Geissenger denied, and
that finally the Philadelphia divine laid
a heavy hand on Mr.. Geissenger's throat
and forced him against the wall
Mr. Geissenger is not strong man,
having experienced partial stroke of
paralysis, and he did not take kindly to
the rough treatment received at the
hands of the clergyman. After thinking
the matter over in his calmer moments
he concluded to proceed against the
Rev. Harvey G. Furbey and coming to
this city he secured the services of an at
torney and a capias writ was served out
and placed in Deputy Sheriff Goth
waite's hands to serve with the result
announced above.

STORIES OF JOWETT.
The Manner In Which Little Benjamin"
Treated His Pupils.

Ine manner In Wh1ch Little benjamin"
Treated His Pupils.
The many stories that are told of Ben
jamin Jowett, the late master of Balliol
college, Oxford, show a strongly marked
individuality, one calculated to make many
friends. He was declared, indeed, to be
the only man living who could maintain
close friendship with 80 people at once, but
IN his early days at least his manner to
pupils repealed rather than attracted, while
to shy men he was positively alarming.
II remember one OCCASION" an under
graduate Of that day relates, ION which he
invited me to take walk with him. The
number of words exchanged between US
was incredibly small, and believe that it
was. relief to both when we regained the
college gate"
His long silences were felt as an awk-
ward bar to conversation, and to interrupt
this silence by starting fresh topic was
often to provoke snub. AS he never made
m unmeaning remark himself, he was i'm
patient of empty speech from others.
Once q friend was accompanying him
on long walk. Arriving at Tewkesbury,
the quaint old world town seemed asleep
In the summer sunshine, and his compan-
ion rashly ventured to say:
u DelleV6 tQdb Cner6 are more dogs than
people in the streets this morning"
Jowett instantly awoke from his reverie
and replied, IF you have nothing more
sensible to observe, you had better be silent
altogether.
Another thing which hampered his in.
innate association with younger men was
his fastidious taste in the use of language,
particularly evidenced in his adherence OF
slang, which undergraduates thought a
piece Of donnishness With one of his child
friends in the country he took singular

on giving her shilling every time she
used the word lawfully" and SO shamed
her out Of the habit.
