In fact, the popular conception of the
Spaniard is of sinister scoundrel,

Of comic opera villain, whose passion

principle or religion, without manliness
or bravery, where negroes are roasted

fact, the Spanish conception Of the
American is merely an exaggeration Of
the national faults, just as our idea Of
the Spaniard is a misconoeption of his
character, formed by magnifying his
vices at the expense Of his virtues. Hu-
man nature is very much the same the
world over, and the Spaniard is very
like other men, save that he is down on
his luck. Like most people who have
known prosperity, he finds it difficult to
appreciate his ciroumsoribed position

gold in the island Cuba was neglected
and ignored for many years. But the
Spanish colonized it and ultimately
found that it's sugar plantations and to-
bacco fields were more profitable than
gold mines. For two centuries it has
proved the most valuable of all Spain's
possessions. Cuba finally grew tired of
being plundered by Spain, and rebellion
after rebellion arose, only to be ruth
lessly suppressed. Then came the fa-
nous ten years war and finally the
present formidable insurrection. The
smaller island of Puerto Rico, which,
with Cuba, makes up the remnant of
Spain's empire in America, commands

Spain Loses q Continent.

Early in the nineteenth century re-
bellions began in South America. Se-
cret societies were formed which had
for their object the throwing off Of the
Spanish yoke. The chiet' founder and
promoter of these was Spanish creole
of Venezuela, Francisco Miranda by
name. He hadserved under Washington
in the American Revolution and had be-
comesthoroughly imbued with the spirit
of liberty and with the principles of re-
publicanism. What had been done in
North America could, he thought, be
done in South America. He therefore
formed in London, since it could not
safely be done at Caracas, the "Gran
Reunion Americana. Into this Bolivar
and San Martin. were initiated. For
some years Miranda made occasional
but futile attempts at revolution, in one
Of which be engaged the interest Of the
great Dundonald. Nothing of impor-
tance was achieved, however, until April
10, 1910. when Caracas openly rose
against it's Spanish governor, Miranda
and Bolivar heading the revolt. Two

quake. 1t destroyed Caracas, killing a
number of people. The superstitious
troops Of the insurgents thought it was
an omen, threw down their arms, de.

was at an end. Miranda was captured,
taken to Spain and died in prison-mur-
dered, it may be surmised. Bolivar
escaped into the neighboring province
of New Granada.
In October, 1912. Bolivar re-entered
Venezuela with 500 men, declaring war
to the knife against Spain. Victory fol-
lowed victory. In August, 1918, he re-
entered Caracas in triumph. Then came
reverses, and he had to fee to Jamaica.
For some years more the struggle went
on, until 1921, when New Granada and
Venezuela were united as an independ-
ent republic under the name of Colon

driven out in 1924. Ecuador was added

threw off the yoke of Spain in 1921, and
Guatemala-then including all Central

Paraguay, indeed, was first of all to win
her independence, in 1914. Uruguay fol.

tine confederation, after ten years war,

THE WAR GIRL

She wore q dress Of navy blue
The collar white and blue and red:
A striped belt-and stockings, too.
A sailor hat was on her head.
Red, white and blue her chatelaine;
She had flag beneath her chin,
She wore a badge-"U. S. S. Maine.'
A tiny cannon for pin.
She wore a shell-comb in her hair,
With army buttons all embossed;
Some swords were also sticking there,
And at her belt some rifles crossed.
Her pocket-book was knapsack shape,
Her smelling bottle a wee canteen,
Containing essence of "Crushed Grape"
The neatest thing I'd ever seen.
Her face was patriotic, too,
And full of everlasting charms.
Her cheeks were red, teeth white, eye:
blue.
She also had repeating arms.
In fact, she was in lighting trim"
So an engagement" 1 did seek;
And though my chance to win was slim,
crused around about her cheek.
Puff! Suddenly she fired at me
A perfect fuslllade Of smiles!
1t shook my heart "windward" to lea"
Re-echoing for miles and miles!
My rapid-fring lips I turned
Upon her then (for they were loaded),
But when the fast-sent kisses burned,
The powder on her face exploded!
