An Alleged Hold-Up

OFFICER Rico went to the river bottom yes
terday afternoon to investigate a report
that boy had been held up. The young
ster claimed that a man armed with re-
volver had despoiled him of his coat. 1t
appears, however, that the boy had been
amusing himself in the river bed by throw
ing round pieces Of tin through the air
to see them curve about, and they had
landed In the vicinity of Waterman JEFF
fries of the Terminal depot Jeffries ran
after the boy, revolver In hand, for the
purpose of soaring him, and the youngster
had dropped his coat in the hurry of his
flight and Jeffries had picked 1t up and re-
tanned it, thinking that the boy would re-
turn for the garment, when he could give
him lecture. The boy then told the po-
lice cock and bull story about hold-up.

A MYSTERIOUS DEATH
A Chinese Dies Apparently From the
..o,o. Eaects Of Poison

Tine police are inyesttgating the circum-
stances Of the death of an unknown Chi
nese, who died early yesterday morning
in front Of the Chinese drug store of Kim
Yuen at 1854 Marchessault street. Shortly
before o'clock c. J. Bickford of 912 Date
street heard some one grooming and crying
as II in great pain. He investigated and
discovered a Chinese writing on top of a
bale of hay. Bickford summoned Sergeant
Smith and the two went to the Chinese,
but he died soon after they reached hts
side. A strange feature about the case
occurred an instant after the Chinese died.
A little dog. apparently the pet of the dead
man. ran up to his side and after giving a
sign of recognizing the corpse was imme-
diately seized with spasms and died within
O minute.
The officers are inclined to think that
both the Chinese and his dog were pois-
oned, but whether the Chinese had taken
the drug with suicidal intent, or by acct
dent, or whether 1t was administered by
some enemy, is unknown. The body was
taken to the undertaking rooms Of Orr &
Hines, where an inquest will be held by
Coroner Campbell today.

The "smiths"-A Wonderful Family

Both in England and Scotland the name
of Smith heads the list of names, and 1t is
fifth on the list for Ireland, whose leading
name is Murphy. In proportion to the pop
ulation there are more Smiths In Scotland
than in England, for in Scotland one person
in every seventy is named Smith, while in
England only one person in every seventy
two Is q Smith,
The Smiths are we'll up in Ireland, beating
such favorites as the O'Briens, the Ryans,
the Connors, the O'Neills, the Reillys, the
McCarthys, and the Dohertys, the four
leaders of the Smiths In Ireland being the
Murphys, Kellys. Sullivans and Walshs.
Taking the Smiths as a whole, and disre-
gardlng age and sex distinctions, they out
number the combined forces of the regular
army and navy by Just two to one. A fairly

From their quarters in New York little
group of men manage the affairs of tho
Cuban republic. Collectively, they are
known as the junta, and, while much has
been said and written about them during
the last few months, very little is known
about them by the general public.
The group is called the junta from a
Spanish word which Is used to designate
a consultative or legislative assembly for
nation or a district. There have been
juntas during crises in all of the Spanish
American countries, and it has come to
be used to mean kind of ring or clique
that manages the affairs Of government.
In such sense, the word is proper to use
to describe the Cuban body in New York.
But 1t is not officially junta. There was
such a council during the ten years war
in Cuba but this body that has its head

not junta at all. 1t is the legation mat

rectly from the constituent assembly of
the republic. which appointed 1t on Sep
TENDER 10, 1895. This was the same assem-
bly, that formed the insurgents govern
ment and commissioned Maxine Gomez
as commander in chief of the Cuban army.
Palma Is the Head
The supreme head Of the junta Is Tomas
Estrada Palma, who was made delegate
and Cuban representative abroad. He is
more important than the secretary Of state,
for he has practically carte blanche in his
negotiations. and has authority to appoint
ambassadors or ministers to any country
whatever, and has control of all Cuba's

Palma was president Of the republic dur

low his name to be presented for the honor
during the present revolution because Of

years. But knowing the value of old men
in counsel, his associates persuaded him
TO accept the really more important post
which he now holds.
Unusual suffering in behalf of Cuba
was endured by him during the ten years
