How the Swede Trained His Muscles.
Notes From the Square.

Olneyvillc claims as one OF its crack
seem a somewhat eccentric person
named Edward Tanning. who is fam
iliarIy called the "brawny Swede" from
Bennett hill. A. few months ago this
rider disappeared from his usual
haunts about Olneyville. and where he
had gone was matter which mystified
his friends and the club of which he
was member. One day recently he
appeared suddenly In town, and when
his friends beheld him they were
amazed at his appearance. which was
termed the pink of condition. His
muscles stood forth In bas relief and
mis- flesh was as hard almost as though
made of wood. where did you do it
and how?" exclaimed group of ad-
mirers. but the Swede was reticent and
JAILED to eniighten them except to say
chat he had the greatest snap on earth
or q man who wanted to train. Soon
fterwards he took hts departure. but
the eyes that admired him were upon
him all Of the time until he rolled into
bed In his hiding place that night. 1t
was In q farm house just beyond
Georgiavflle. The party who followed
him questioned the family who occu-
pied the house as to how such remark
able development had been attained by
the Swede, and were told that IL was
accomplished while pitching hay and
doing other farm work during the day,
which was followed by 10-mile run
over the rough roads OF the vicinity at
night. The shadow" then returned to
OlneyvilIe and related these facts, and
IL is now proposed that the club pass a
resolution offering the services OF the
members, either individually or col
lectively. to the farmers of Georgiaville
for a period OF two months free OF
charge.

dent at his home. I'm Crompton, last
evening. The boy climbed up on a
| table while his parents were out of the

dor, which was broken by the force of
the blow, and the ragged edge cut a

The troops Of eastern Cuba are In better

that they are almost naked. But Rabi's

Rabi has been compelled to save ammuni-

machete his orders are not 10 fire
The rules followed by Rabi while on the
march are simple. His soldiers arc sepa-
rated into small bands Of 80 or loes, and
the place Of camping for the night is
known to all before they move at dawn,
His army is picketed to guard against sur
prise in a way which the American troops
must follow. His picket lines are like tho
spokes OF wheel. The army is the hub,
and the lines run out nearly o mile In all
directions. The horses are pickcted in the
center. General Rabi's horses are not the
best, but they are hardy little animals
and are well trained. The Cuban soldiers
have taught them to answer calls and
whistles. When the Spaniards have cap
turcd Cuban horses, the Cubans have Of

lines by calling their old horses, and
many one has come galloping riderless
back to the Cuban lines.
