SPIES AND THEIR WORK.

Spy is an ugly word, but, according
to Lieut. Col. w. n. Klendowsky, OF
the Russian imperial general staff, the
men and women who engage I'm the
business OF spying are not half bad"
business? Yes. Klendowsky's book on
spies, about to be issued in France
bluntly states that military and politi-
cal authorities the world over look
upon espionage as n recognized profess
sion. without espionage their work
would be sadly lacking i'm direct pur-
pose" says the author, and continues:
Spies. or. as they are politely desg-
mated, secret agents, are no less a ne
cessity i'm times of peace than i'm war.
IL il were not for spies one country
would know very little about the mo-
btlization of another. about onward
movements 10 the frontiers, about the
spirit OF foreign troops and the inten-
tions of the commanding generals.
"The employment of spies is usually
intrusted to high officer OF long and
honorable standing. Above all. he
must try To find out whether the per-
sons Offering their services are In

Gen. Garcia was the original conspira-

against Spain i'm 1868, and i'm that war,
under Gomez, he attained the rank OF
brigadier general In October OF 1865
he captured the towns Of Jiquani and
Baire and recruited many hundreds of

its outcome was uncertain, he main

der his command.
Gen. Garcia has been much i'm the

After the Cuban revolution broke out
in 1894 he made two unsuccessful at
tempts TO get to Cuba. One was on the

on board the Hawkins were saved, but

In the meantime Jiguani had again

former triumph. a second time his

However. there was another more i'm
