I stood for some time gazing at the
door through which Mr.. Sonntag had
gone. Amazement held possession of
me. A Thousand and one questions

forward and address man who had
approached him from the opposite di-
rection.
The conversation lasted but minute.
and then horsemnn aud pedestrian each
went on their several ways.
When the pedestrian drew nearer |
saw il WAS Hunter, the station agent n
Sidington, or, as Sonntag had informed
me. Skinner. IL seemed very odd that
he should have assumed another name.
Then my eye caught the glimpse of a
horsewoman coming down the road
from the direction of the Morley resi-
dence. IL needed but that glimpse to
tell me that il was Florence. She was
coming toward the house, perhaps 10

When she reached the cross road lead

When the fellow came up 10 Florence,
| was surprised TO see him stop and en-
gage her in n conversation which last
ed some minutes and appeared to be
rather earnest, Judging by the way
Florence leaned down toward him.
Finally the Young woman turned her
horses head aud ealloped back in the
direction she had come.
The station agent watched her re-
treating form, then slowly began TO re-
trace his steps. He had gone but a
short distance when he stopped and
looked toward my house. then again

and was about to pass up into the yard,
when I leaned from the window and
hailed him.
"Halloo, there. what's up? What do
you want?" | demanded.
CHANGING up at me with his stupid
stare, he spoke. when YOU want TO
send anything away by freight, have it

I'll i discovered that Sonntag did not
seem 20 hear me, so intent was he over
the words the voice had uttered.
.'Pshaw! what's the use bothering
over that, Mr.. Sonntag ?" said. There
isn't much sense TO be made out of il,
anyhow"
"Yes, there is, too. II is converse
ton, and not a mere tumble of words"
the old lawyer said, with an air of tri
umph. Just hear what make out of
II now"
Divided up, the following was Sonn-

First Party-"Never will you have my
consent under existing circumstances.
You have broken faith with me in every
way. Why was the property removed

There, that's a pretty sensible tax,

finished.
'-0h, well, perhaps IL is sensible
enough. but what good will il do you,
now that you have made a conversation
out Of it?" remarked. in some i'm
patience, for Sonntag's satisfaction
seemed TO be out of all proportion to the
importance Of a few chance remarks
caught in some mysterious fashion
from a telephone wire.

plying way, and regarded me with a
whimsical expression.

by noon probably three thousand men

The sea was auspiciously calm and

blowing and the troops were in the
highest feather, and at the strains of
"Yankee Doodle" were greeting, with
loud cheers, every string of the boats

An Explosion.

The steamer S., commanded by Cap

with terrible effect, and burned to the
waters edge. Captain S. was blown
into the air, alighting near floating

miles below, to which news Of the dis

patch Boat Wanda, off Daiquiri.
Wednesday afternoon, June 22.-As
clock. the hour supposed to have
been liked for commencing the disem-
barkation came and passed, the cxpe-
dition was in suspense, but the squad
ron lay rocking complacently outside
the little bay. About 9.15 q. m. the
bombardment of the hills surrounding
the village Of Juragua, some six miles
away, began to distract our attention
from our own affairs. Then steam
pinnaclcs trailing strings of empty
boats began speeding to and fro among
the transports aud gradually, though
eptibly, began filling up with
troops.
At 9.45 Cuban scouts appeared west
OF Daiquiri, and the New Orleans,
Machias, Detroit: Suwanee and Wasp
began bombarding. Forty-five rounds
were fired into the bush during the
first quarter of an hour and many
rounds from the quick firing guns.
Not shot was fred in reply. At 9.45
the first boat load, containing the
men of the Eighth and First Infantry,
started for the shore, followed by the
Twenty Fifth, colored, and the Tenth
and Twelfth Infantry at Ito.
Prodigous cheering from the shore,
caught up by the nearest ships, and
flying from vessel to vessel through
the squadron, announced the moment
GUS fact that the American army had
begun a landing on Cuban soil, the
honor Of setting the first foot on the
island falling to detachment of the
Eighth Infantry that was towed
ashore by the tug Wampatuck.
This important operation, thus sue
cessfully completed without loss Of
life or accident, the troops on land
formed and moved up and away to
quarters without confusion. A force
of mounted Cubans, which had been
under cover during the bombardment,
now arrived and congratulations were
exchanged. The inhabitants Of the
village, assured that the worst ,ss
